The Fallen ➵Lahey

//In which she raves//

"You're not seriously gonna go, are you?" Lydia asks as I slip on my black heels. "I am going, we haven't been to school in a while and I really need a break. I just need to get out and let loose. Apparently a lot of people from school are suppose to be at this rave" I say as I braid my hair into a rope twist braid. "I would have bought you a ticket but I know public parties aren't your thing".

"It's whatever" she says and I nod. "Promise me that you will stay home and not leave. And remember to stay away from Jackson. If you see him then you call me" I tell her and she nods.

"I don't understand what the big deal about him is" she says sitting at the foot of my bed while I look in my mirror. "He just hasn't been himself lately and it's best that we keep our distance" I explain while grabbing my keys, phone and wallet.

"I'm leaving now so speak now or forever hold your peace" I say and she rolls her eyes. "Have fun, don't go making out with some random guy. Be a good girl" she says and I freeze.

I turn to her to see her smiling at me and I nod as I walk out of the room. I rush downstairs and out the house.

"You can do this, you deserve this" I say to myself as I sit in my car outside of the rave. "Just walk in there and have a good time." I say closing my eyes.

"You know you don't want to do this" I hear a voice and open my eyes. I turn to see Peter sitting in the passenger seat and I jump. "I'll be honest you and Lydia really are my favorites" he says as he rubs my cheek and I stiffen.

"Distract" he says to me. "Something tells me one werewolf is gonna be in for a surprise" he says smirking. I close my eyes and open them to see that he's gone.

I'm going crazy, who sees a dead man? Maybe I should tell someone about this like Stiles or Scott but I don't think they would really care.

They've been so caught up with all this Kanima business that I was originally suppose to help with but I guess it's true what they say two's a party, three's a crowd. I'm never gonna fit in with them. They are always gonna see me as Lydia's selfish twin sister.

I open the car door and get out. I shut the door and walk towrds the enterance. I show the people my ticket and walk up the stairs and into the party.

The music starts to flow through my ears and my nerves start to relax until I spot Isaac and Erica ahead of me. I follow them to the main area where everyone is dancing and having a good time. They starts searching the crowd as if they are looking for someone.

"Who are you looking for?" I ask as I look up at Isaac. He looks down at me and sighs. "What are you doing here?" he asks.

"I could ask you the same thing" I say as Erica looks over at me sending a glare my way. "Go home Layla" Isaac says.

"Not until you tell me who you are looking for" I say and Erica walks next to me. She presses her claws against my lower back and leans to whisper in my ear. "If you know what's good for you then you will go home" she says.

"Let her go" Isaac warns her but she presses her claws further nearly breaking skin but Isaac pushes her off. "Stay close" Isaac says as he grabs my hand and pulls me into the crowd as Erica follows. "Stay right here" Isaac says as he walks over to Scott.

"Are you thirsty?" Someone asks and I nod. "Here you go" they say grabbing a red solo cup from a tray that they are carrying around. I chug the drink and grimace at the alcoholic taste. I turn around to see Isaac and Erica gone. I groan but suddenly stop when I feel a pair of arms wrap around my waist.

I turn to see some random guy and smack his arms away. I rush pass him and stop when I see Erica dancing all over Isaac and Jackson. Jackson stabs Erica with his claws and she falls to the ground along with Isaac. Jackson starts walking but I chase after him.

"Jackson" I call but he continues. "I know who you are" I yell to him and he looks at me. He turns and walks up to me to the point where are lips are inches from touching.

"You know nothing" he roars."You're wrong, I know that you're a monster" I say and he raises his claws to my throat.

"I warned you all" he says going to slash but Isaac pops up from behind him and injects something into his neck. Isaac starts dragging him and I follow.We enter this room and Isaac sets him in a chair as Erica walks in.

"You okay?" Isaac asks me and I nod. We hear the door open and we jump. "Just me, it's just me. Don't freak" Stiles says as he shuts the door. "Is he okay?" he asks looking at Jackson.

"Well...Let's find out."Isaac says taking out his claws. He goes to touch Jackson but Jackson grabs Isaac's arm and Isaac groans as Jackson bends it and I run to help. "God"Isaac groans. "Let go" I yell to Jackson and he let's go.

"Okay, no one does anything like that again, okay?" Stiles asks and we all nod. "Oh, I thought the Ketamine was suppose to put him out"Isaac wheezes in pain and I kneel next to him.

"Yeah, well, apparently this is all we're going to get. So let's just hope that whoever's controlling him just decided to show up tonight."Stiles says as I gently take Isaac's arm an rub it. "Skin to skin contact helps" I say and he nods.

I turn to see Jackson open his eyes. "I'm here" he says his voice very different, stronger and angrier. "I'm right here with you".

"Jackson, is that you?" Stiles asks kneeling in front of him. "Us. We're all here"he responds and Stiles looks back at us. "Are you the one killing people?" Stiles asks.

"We are the ones killing murderers".

"So all the people you've killed so far deserved it. So we got a little rule book that says you only go after murderers."Stiles explains.

"Anything can break if enough...". "Pressure's applied" I cut Jackson off. "All right, so the people you're killing are all murderers then?".

"All. Each. Every one.".

"Well, who did they murder?"Stiles asks. "Me".

"Wait,what? What do you mean?" Stiles asks. "They murdered me".
Isaac stands up and pulls me up with him as Jackson's eyes starts to turn a weird color. "They murdered me." he repeats.

"Okay, alright. More Ketamine. The man needs more Ketamine. Come on" Stiles says as he stands next to us. Jackson starts shifting into the Kanima. "We don't have anymore" Isaac says showing the empty bottle of Ketamine. "You used the whole bottle?" Stiles asks in annoyance.

Jackson starts standing up and my heart starts pounding as he snarls. "Um..." Stiles says as Jackson's head twitches side to side. "Okay, out, everybody out." Stiles says.

"Go, Go, Go" they yell as they run out and I follow but some genius shuts the door leaving me in with Jackson. "LAYLA!!!"Isaac yells and opens up the door quickly pulling me out, I stand with my eyes widen open. The kanima busts through the. what looks like metal wall.

"That was crazy" I say starting to feel a bit woozy. Stiles runs off leaving me with Isaac and Erica. "I thought I was a goner when you guys left me in there but that was, that was...awesome" I giggle and Isaac walks towards me furrowing his brows.

He grabs a hold of my face and looks me in the eyes and then he smells my breath. "Have you been doing drugs?" he asks and I giggle. "What?" I ask and Erica sighs.

"Someone probably slipped something into her drink, genius" she says as we walk back to the party. Isaac pulls out a water bottle from a cooler and opens it. "Drink" he says and I drink some of the water.

"She ruins everything" Erica whines. "Yeah well she's much better company then you are go find Derek. I'll take care of her" Isaac says as Erica runs off. "Oh no" I start to cry and Isaac looks at me. "What's wrong?" he asks. "I haven't been a good girl".
