Give your heart a break ~ Scott McCall

The Dark Moon pt.1

3rd PERSON POV

Stiles and Lydia were walking the streets of Mexico. "This doesn't seem so bad" Stiles said as he clapped his hands. "It's not the town, it's the plan" Lydia replied. "What's wrong with the plan?" He asked. "Stiles. This could be the stupidest plan we've ever come up with. You're aware of that, right?" She asked. "I'm aware it's not our best" Stiles agreed. "We are going to die" Lydia said as they started walking again.

"Are you saying that as a banshee or you're just being pessimistic?" He asked. "I'm saying this as a person who doesn't wanna die" she replied as she looked at him. "Ok. Would you mind restricting any talk of death to actual Banshee predictions?" Stiles turned to Lydia. "This plan is stupid, and we're going to die" she replied sarcastically. "Oh, thank you!" He replied in the same tone.

"I'm serious, we couldn't have had any protection with us?" Lydia asked. "C'mon you know why we can't. The Calaveras know who the Lightwoods are. They know who Scott is, and Allison. Kira, Malia, Isaac, and the twins are extra lookouts. And Cora is pretty obvious" Stiles spoke rapidly. They knew that they would both feel a lot safer if somebody with control of their powers was with them, but Scott didn't want to take the risk. Besides, they would be the ones negotiating.

ARIADNE'S POV

I was sitting with Ethan on my right and Aiden by my left. We watched the people dance while we kept an eye on the guards. "So... are things still rough with Scott?" Aiden asked me over the loud music. "Dude..." Ethan said beside me. "What? I'm just curious" Aiden replied with a shrug of his shoulders. I chuckled and rolled my eyes. "Things aren't rough, they're just... awkward. It kills me not to be with him, but I need to get myself in order. And that also means, getting you guys together as well. How is the room?" I changed the subject as my eyes quickly found Scott's. But averted my gaze.

Within the weeks of the nogitsune incident, the twins stayed in Beacon Hills. My brother, Aries, and I offered them the spare room. It was weird having them around all the time, but we were connected, so what choice did we have?

As for Scott and I? I tried to not make it awkward, but I also tried to keep my distance. Working with the twins helped keep me distracted, but at night, I always thought of him. And I really do miss him.

"The rooms good. We still have a lot of unpacking to do" Aiden said. "You. You have a lot of unpacking to do. I'm almost done" Ethan corrected him. I looked in the corner to see Oceanus and Cora watching but smiled at passerby's. Then I saw Kira and Isaac talking. Malia, Aries, and Allison were dancing.

I noticed more guards coming out. "Aiden. Go to Kira and Isaac. Ethan you're with me" I said as I got up. "Yes ma'am" Aiden went over to where I told him. Two guards made their way to Ethan and I. Ethan grabbed one by his collar and slammed him on the ground, knocking him out. I wrapped my whip around the other one and pushed him back into Ethan, so I could get to Scott.

"I don't think so" I replied with a smirk as I grabbed the guard that tried to sneak up on Scott and I grabbed his gun, taking the butt of it and smacking it on his head, knocking him out. I looked up to see Scott already looking at me. "Thanks" he said a little breathless. "Anytime. Let's go" I replied as I motioned for everybody to come over.

3rd PERSON POV

As the group of teens were walking the halls of the Calaveras house, they all came to a stop as a mist of smoke appeared, making them all stop. It started coming from the ceiling and that's when the wolves knew. "Wolfsbane. It's wolfsbane! Kira and Allison get out of here!" Scott and Isaac shouted. The twins and Scott were going to shout to tell the trio of shadow hunters to leave, but they saw the black veins appearing on their arms. "Demon venom" Aries realized.

Everybody watched as Kira and Allison tried to fight off the guards but it they were bested. Scott turned around to see Araya. "Someone who had been an alpha only for a few months should be more careful when facing a hunter of forty years" she said with a smirk. "All... we want... is Derek" Ariadne spoke up before she passed out. "You're a long way from home" Araya replied. That's when Scott realized it. "You don't know where he is either" her smile dropped as she electrocuted Scott. This did not end well at all.

The pack, minus Malia, Ethan and Aiden, all walked into Deaton's back room. "Ok, so how longs it been?" Stiles asked. "Weeks. He hasn't gotten back go any of my texts" Scott answered as he opened the cabinet. "Has Derek ever returned your texts?" Stiles asked another question. He was hoping this was Derek just being his usual self. "He returns mine all the time. And I haven't heard from him" Cora answered before Scott, letting him know this was a serious issue.

"Cora and I went to the loft. The alarm was on. Everything looked ok" Oceanus spoke up from beside Cora. "But then we found these" Scott pulled off the lid of the canister. Stiles pulled out the casing and looked at it. "I know who those casings belong to. It's the mark of a family of hunters based out of Mexico. The Calaveras" Allison realized.

"What would they want with Derek?" Isaac asked curiously as he stood beside Kira. This was all new to her considering, this was her first serious thing with the pack. She was just going to follow along. "You don't think they killed them, do you?" Stiles asked. "I... I don't know" Scott answered nervously.

"No. No, the Calaveras follow the code down to the last word. They wouldn't take Derek. And if they took Derek, they'd take Cora as well" Aries disagreed. "Well, we have to know" Ariadne said. "That's why Lydia is here" all eyes were now on Lydia as Scott slid over the canister. Lydia looked around and sighed before closing her eyes and put her hand in.

She dropped the shell casings and looked around. "What?" Isaac asked. "Lydia, what?" Stiles repeated. "Is he dead?" Cora asked next. "No. But I'm not sure he's alive either" Lydia answered. "What does that mean?" Scott asked. "I don't know. There's something not right. I just... I don't know" everybody was confused now.

"So, if the Calaveras have him, how are we supposed to find them?" Stiles asked. Allison picked up the bullet and looked around at her friends. "Mexico" she answered. Everybody turned their attention to Ariadne as she clapped her hands. "Well, you guys can't go to Mexico, that's a bad idea. Boys, go get ready. Tell the twins to get ready too. Cora, I know I won't be able to stop you so you can come too" Cora nodded and as the four turned to leave, Scott stopped them.

"You can't go to Mexico by yourselves" He said. "Scott, I don't think you understand" Aries said. "Understand what?" Stiles asked. "It's not every year that a true alpha rises. The Calaveras know who you are. They know who the McCall pack is. They hear that you guys are lurking around, it's game over. And we can't take that risk" Oceanus explained. "So how will you guys get passed the Calaveras? You're apart of the pack, too" Kira pointed out the obvious.

"Easy. We'll say we're looking for a demon. They know who we are, and they know that we travel a lot of the time to catch demons that get away. And to make it even better, we'll say our dad sent us. They have a special understanding" Ariadne said as she looked into Scott's pleading eyes. The last thing the shadow hunters needed was adding attention to them traveling. "You guys can't do this alone. Let us help. We can add extra protection, be lookouts" Scott pleaded. He didn't want them going alone.

Ariadne knew she couldn't resist Scott's pleading brown eyes, so she turned back to the three. "They could be useful. Give us a cover" Cora agreed, which surprised Aria. Everybody knows Cora doesn't play about her family. "Fine. You can come. Be ready by tomorrow morning" Ariadne gave Scott one last look and left with the other three.
