Chapter Thirty-Four
The Overlooked

The steel door slides back with a clang making Derek spin around to see Jennifer Blake stride in. "You don't know me. But I know who you are and I need your help." She said making him look at her confused, "They're going to tell you things, lies." She said.

"Who are you?" He demanded and she smiles, "My names Jennifer Blake. I know that you don't know me but you have to trust me." She said. He was about to say something but the sound of running footsteps made them turn to the door.

And soon enough Scott and Stiles came running in, holding up a slightly drowsy Nova making Derek instanly look at them alarmed and concerned. Nova looked up, glaring at Jennifer with a look that could kill, "Seriously, you go to my boyfriend for help? As if he'd help you after what you just did?"

"I don't know what you're talking about." Jennifer said, acting innocent. "What the hell is going on?" Derek asked looking back and forth between Jennifer and group. Nova stood up, the physical exhaustion side effect finally wearing off and pointed at Jennifer, "This bitch, is the one killing people."

"Oh, that's right. Committing human
sacrifices. Cutting their throats? I probably do it during my lunch hour. That way I can get back to teaching high school English the rest of the day. That makes perfect sense." Jennifer said making Nova's glare darken but before she could say anything Stiles spoke.

"Where's my dad?"

"How would I know? Derek, tell me
you don't believe this." She said, but obviously Derek wasn't going to believe her over his girlfriend and her friends. "Do you know what happened to Stiles's father?" He asked and she shook her head, "No. I have no idea."

"Oh yeah? Ask her why she tried to kill my best friend." Nova said making Jennifer look at her crazy, "Why would I want to kill Lydia Martin?" She asked making Nova smirk. "I never said it was Lydia." She said making Jennifer's face fall.

"What if I say we could prove it?" Scott asked and Jennifer notices an open vial held in his hands, filled with a light grey powder, "What is that?"

"My boss told me it's a poison and a cure. Which means you can use it, but it can also be used against you." Scott said before glancing at Nova who covered her mouth and nose with her sleeve.

With a flick of his arm, the power flies out of the vial, pluming into a cloud of dust. Jennifer raises her hands, but in the cloud, her face changes to the Darach, slashed and shrieking in anger. Derek flinches back as if he'd been hit. Dust settling around her, Jennifer looks up with a mixture of rage and fear. She starts to back away, moving for an escape. But Derek comes at her.

His right hand wraps around her throat, left opening with claws unsheathed. "Wait, just wait--you need me." She pleaded. "What are you?"

"The only person who can save your sister." He blinks, a moment of hesitation. Nova, Scott and Stiles watch Jennifer struggle to breathe, eyes locked on Derek's. "Call Peter. Call him."
