Evelyn's P.O.V

I woke up feeling the moss beneath my body making me jerk awake, I was surrounded by trees and fog. I turned to see Scott laying peacefully on his stomach "Scott" I stuttered shaking him "what the hell?" he mumbled as I pulled him up to his feet, looking around us "Scott we must have been sleepwalking" I whispered glancing at him, he turned to look at me with worry "what 3 miles into the woods? and you were at your own house last night" he exclaimed in a panic "I don't -" I was cut off by a loud growl, I shrieked looking in the direction it came from, in the trees staring straight back at us were a pair of ruby red eyes.

I stood frozen in place "Come on Evelyn" Scott grabbed my hand and began to run "Scott, why is it chasing us?" I panted as we climbed over broken tree branches "I don't know but keep running" we jumped over another rock and landed in freezing cold ice water, I surfaced to the top to see a man staring at Scott and I in shock while he watered his plants "Morning sir" I mumbled.

......................................................................................................................................................

I sat down next to Scott on the bench "did you tell Lydia about you sleepwalking last night?" he whispered, I flicked my hair over my shoulder to look at him "No, she'd freak" he nodded slowly as I picked at my nails "did you tell Stiles?" I asked, he shook his head "I really want to make the first line" he mumbled changing the subject as he put his helmet on. I smiled at him and pulled him up off the bench "you will don't worry about it" I assured him.

"Hey Evelyn,Scott" Stiles ran up behind us almost tripping over the bench "guess what I found out" he gushed holding up some papers "what did you find?" I sat back down next to him and Scott "you guys were right, the examiner examined the body and found animal hair on it, it was....." Coaches whistle blew out and before Stiles could finish Scott was already on the field warming up.

I turned to look back at Stiles "it was wolf hair" I hit his chest "told you we heard a wolf howl" he rubbed his chest and nodded "I know and I'm sorry" I scowled at him and crossed my arms over my chest "you should be. Are you not trying out for the team Stiles?" I asked noticing he wasn't in uniform, he shook his head awkwardly "No, I like keeping the bench warm" I chuckled and turned back to the game.

Scott did a fancy flip throwing the ball into the net "wow, when did he get so good?" I whispered "McCall" Coach yelled, Scott approached him "yeah coach?" he patted Scott on the should "What the hell was that?" he bellowed. Scott just awkwardly stood there "are you trying out for the gymnastic team McCall?" Coach added. I giggled slightly at the look on Scott's face "no sir " Scott answered "then what the hell was that?" Coach yelled again. I could see Scott getting flustered underneath his helmet. "I don't know, I was just trying to make the shot" Scott stuttered scratching the back of his neck "I know, welcome to first line buddy" I practically jumped off the bench "congratulations Scott" I screamed.

I lay on my back playing with my phone as Lydia braided her hair in the mirror "did you hear that Scott McCall asked Allison out last night?" I sat up abruptly knocking my phone out of my hand "no way, he did?" she smiled at me through the mirror "yes he did" I stood up and sat down next to her "so they are going to the party tonight" she nodded. That's my boy.

I opened the door to Stiles' bedroom "so you called me here because...." I questioned jumping down on his bed next to Scott "because I think I know what's wrong with you" Stiles said holding up some paper "what?" Scott and I said at the same time "you remember that joke from the other day, not a joke anymore. I've been up all night reading websites and books. And do you know why a wolf howls" Stiles rambled as I stared at him and crossed my arms over my chest.

Scott signed loudly "should we?" he snapped, Stiles looked down at the paper in his hand "it when a wolf signals his location to the rest of the pack. You said you heard a wolf howl so maybe there's a pack of them" I pushed myself up off the bed and grabbed the paper "so there's a pack of wolves" Stiles shook his head and pointed to the underlined words on the sheet "no Werewolves" Scott shot up off the bed making me jump slightly, He scowled at Stiles "are you really wasting our time with this, I have to pick Alison up in an hour and Evelyn's got to get dressed" Stiles picked up another pile of paper.

"No Scott, I'm serious I mean you said you have been smelling and hearing things that you shouldn't be. It all started with the bite and not to mention what you did today at tryouts" Stiles tried to explain " I made a lucky shot" Scott protested defensively "Scott what you did wasn't just amazing it was impossible and you don't just get that kind of speed and ability overnight" Stiles snapped back. I signed rubbing my head as I tried to process what was being said "Stiles I made first line and got a date with a pretty girl. Why are you trying to ruin it for me?" Scott challenged, I turned to look at Stiles "because your cursedScottt you both are. Now its says that during the full moon you will become stronger and that's when your bloodlust will be at its peak"

I sensed Scott's frustration turn to anger as I stepped in between him and Stiles "bloodlust?" I questioned "yes your urge to kill" suddenly Scott pulled me behind him "I'm already feeling the urge to kill Stiles" Stiles stood up straight almost out of fear "it also says it can be triggered by sudden raise in pulse and I haven't seen anyone raise your pulse like Alison does. Scott you have to cancel that date" Stiles insisted as he pushed past Scott and began searching through Scott's bag.

"Stiles what are you doing?" I asked him calmly, hoping I can defuse the situation "I'm cancelling the date" Scott tried to pull his bag away from Stiles but he already had Scott's phone "Stiles give it to me......give it to me" Scott pinned Stiles to the wall ready to punch him, I forced my way between them, Scott looked down at me before turning around and punching the computer chair.

"Scott" I screeched in shock, Scott turned to look at us. Stiles was behind me "I'm so sorry" he whispered as he picked up his bag. Sending Stiles an apologetic glance Scott opened the door "I have to go..go get ready for the party"

I lifted the chair to see three big claw slashes "Stiles I don't know why but I believe you, but what are we going to do because Scotts out there and if the stuff about the full moon is true then it won't be long before he or I hurt someone".

........................................................................................................................................................


I put another layer of red lipstick on and grabbed Stiles' hand "don't get used to this" I joked pulling him out of the car and in to party "I won't, now we need to find Scott" he let go of my hand and walked ahead looking for Scott. I headed towards the drinks table, suddenly my chest started to tighten and I couldn't breathe "Evelyn you okay" Stiles asked returning to my side, I turned to look at him "yeah, just please hurry up and find Scott so I can get out of here" he nodded quickly and headed back to find Scott.

I leaned against the wall for support as I try to slow my breathing. I looked up to see Derek Hale in the corner next to the open fire, he stared straight back at me. I held his gaze for a moment before looking down again "Evelyn, Scott left I'm going to go after him okay? go home and stay there" Stiles babbled, all I could do was nod.

I turned using the wall for support to get myself out of the party and back in to the parking lot. I felt my head spin and my whole body burn. I turned a corner as an animalistic growl escaped my lips, I tried to calm down my breathing as I leaned against the brick wall. I closed my eyes and focused on my breathing but images of Derek continued to pop in to my head and it made my pulse raise, I opened my eyes and looked up catching my reflection on a car window. I choked at the golden eyed creature that stared back a me.
