The Fallen ➵Lahey

//In which she becomes apart of the pack//

"Are you serious? You did that. That's your fault" Scott yells to Derek as he points in the direction the cops left. "What's his fault?" I ask confused. "I know that. Now get in the car and help me".

"No, I've got a better idea. I'm gonna call a lawyer. Because a lawyer might actually have a chance of getting him out before the moon goes up"Scott finishes.

"Why does it matter about the moon coming up and who was the guy in the back of the squad car?" I ask but am once again ignored. "Not when they do a real search of the house".

"What do you mean?"Scott asks Derek and I groan as I walk over to Derek's car. "Whatever Jackson said to the cops, what's in the house is worse.A lot worse" Derek says and then looks at me.

"What do you want ?" he asks as he opens the door for Scott. "Answers, what the hell is going on and what the hell did I witness the other night?" I ask.

"Look Layla, you don't need to worry about any of this. Just go back to Lydia" Scott says and I glare. "Fine then I guess I will just have to get the police involved " I say taking out my phone and dialing 911."Wait" Derek says and I smile. "Go ask Stiles" he finishes as Scott gets in the car and they drive off.

"Come on" I whisper to myself as I stand outside the school next to Stiles' jeep. I've been waiting here all night for him to get out of detention. I'm cold and so hungry right now so if Mr. Harris would just let him out already then that would be greatly appreciated.

"Hey sorry, Harris literally just let me out of detention. Literally and he had my phone the whole frickin' time" I hear Stiles yell through his phone as he approaches his jeep.

"Layla?" he asks and I slightly wave. "We need to talk" I tell him and he nods. "Wait, what guy?" he asks whoever is on the phone. "They're sending him to the station for Isaac"Stiles says. Who is this Isaac guy?

"What was it?" he asks and looks at a picture on his phone. I walk closer to him to see a purple flower. "Aconitum" I whisper and he looks at me. "Did you get it?" I hear Allison's voice through the phone. "Yeah, wolfs bane".

"What does that mean?" she asks. "It means they're gonna kill him" Stiles finishes and hangs up. "I'm sure whatever you want to talk about is important but not so important that it has to be done right now" he says.

"You're all werewolves" I say as realization hits me. "What?!". "It makes sense. What kind of person bites two teenage girls. Wolfs bane relates to werewolves and the other night Gerard was talking about an Omega, the lone wolf. You're a werewolf" I say looking him in the eyes and he grabs my hand.

"Look Layla, I promise I will explain everything but you need to get home and stay there" he says. "No, I want to help" I say and he gives a slight laugh.

"I know that I don't look like much but I can do a lot of damage" I say and he nods. "Fine but just whatever happens, stay close to me at all times" he says and I nod as we get in his jeep.

"Hey did you slow him down?" Stiles asks Allison over the phone as we drive. "You can say that".

"Alright, well, uh, I'm headed to the station right now". "Where's Scott?"Alli asks. "Isaac's".

"Does he have a plan?" Allison asks. "Yeah but not a very good one and unfortunately we don't really have time to come up with anything better" Stiles says as he hangs up.

"I could probably think if something if knew exactly what we're dealing with" I tell him. "Yeah well it's a long story so let's just hope this works" he says looking at the full moon. "So do you remember anything ?" he asks.

I sigh already knowing what he means. "Not exactly but I don't want to talk about it" I say.

"You have to understand that what happened to you is all connected to this. If you really want to know everything then you're risking everything. Once you know, there is no going back. There is no normal from here. I'm giving you the chance to walk away and forget all of this and live your perfect little life" he says as we pull up in front of a house which I assume is Isaac's.

Derek opens my door. "Get in the back" he says. I would normally argue but Isaac's life is on the line and don't want to be the reason he dies. Derek gets in and we drive to the station.

"I want in" I say making Derek look back at me. "What is she talking about?" he asks Stiles. "I want to be with you guys and help with this" I say and Derek gives a humorless laugh.

"Do you think this is a game or some little club. This is serious. It's cute that you want to start playing Nancy Drew all of a sudden but tip of advice, go play it somewhere else" he says as we pull up in front of the station.

"Do you enjoy being a dick ?" I ask and he laughs. "Would you enjoy me ripping your throat out with my teeth?" he asks as he lets out an a growl. "Will you two just stop and focus" Stiles says.

"Okay, now the keys to every cell are in a password protected lock box in my father's office. The problem is getting pass the front desk. " Stiles says as we stare at a woman working front desk duty through the window.

"I'll distract her." Derek says getting out of the car. "Whoa, whoa,whoa--you?" Stiles asks as he pulls Derek back in his seat. "You're not going in there. I'm taking my hand off. "Stiles says removing his hand from Derek's shoulder while Derek glares.

"Just let him. If this Isaac character's life is on the line the let him go" I say. "I was exonerated."Derek tells Stiles. "You're still a person of interest." Stiles points out. "An innocent person" Derek adds and I snort. "An--you, yeah right" Stiles says laughing. "You look far from it" I say. "Can I just kill her already?" Derek asks and I glare.

"Okay fine" Stiles says and my eyes widen. "I mean that you distract the woman, not kill Layla" he corrects and I smile in content. "What's your plan?" he asks Derek. "To distract her" he answers and I laugh. "You two are a trip" I comment.

"Uh-huh. How? By punching her in the face?" Stiles asks him. "Or by ripping her throat out with you teeth?" I add and Stiles nods. "Good one" he comments and I smile. "Thank you".

"Unh. Heh, by talking to her"Derek says. "Okay, give us a sample. What are you gonna open with?"Stiles asks and he sighs. "Dead Silence. That should work beautifully. Any other ideas?" Stiles asks.

"I'm thinking about punching you in the face." Derek says as he gets out and walks into the station and we follow. Stiles and I stay behind the door while Derek distracts the lady. He starts flirting with har and I gag. Stiles smacks my hand and I glare.

"Don't hit me" I say as he grabs my hand quickly pulls me pass the desk. "Wait here" Stiles says as he walks into his fathers office. I hear the sound of keys clicking and walk towards the noise. I notice a blood trail and look to see a guy in uniform with an arrow sticking out of his leg.

"Are you okay?" I ask and he turns to face me. He glares and pushes me into the wall making smack into it. I fall back as he continues walking.

"Ow" I say holding my head as I get up. I starts following his blood trail to see him dragging a struggling Stiles in his arm. Stiles pulls the fire alarm as I run towards the cell the man has dragged him in. The guy drops Stiles to the ground and bend down to make sure he's okay.

The guy looks behind him to see one of the cells busted opened. "That's not good" I comment as I hear a roar and then something pushes him and starts throwing him around. "That's Isaac?" I ask and Stiles nods as we hide in a corner.

Isaac knocks the guy unconscious and I sigh in relief as I get up. Derek walks in and steps on the needle that the man was going to stab Isaac with. Isaac looks at me and starts growling. My heart starts pounding against my ribs as he walks closer.

Flash backs of the night I was attacked starts flashing in my head and I start to loose balance as Derek roars at Isaac making him back down. "Stiles" I whisper before passing out.
