HOWL HOWL
Nick was sleeping when he heard the howl. By the time, he reached there the fight was already done. The bus was covered with blood with scratches on the seat and door ripped off.
He took a smell to pinpoint were the body was laid and followed the direction from where the smell was coming. As he approached the place, he heard the sound of the car. He hid using the trees as cover and saw a girl walking out of the car in a trance.
When she was about to reach the body, she snapped out of it. Seeing the body, the girl shocked bent down to check if he was alive. After confirming his breath, the girl turned towards the car and the headlight of the car illuminated her delicate features as he identified her, Elizabeth Oberon.
Nick was surprised to see his girlfriend here and instantly pieced together the reason, a banshee. Nick heard her call the police anonymously and drove her car away. Nick also followed her to make sure she reached her home safe. When she reached home, he saw her parents standing by the door.
He was surprised to see her parents also knew and became intrigued about her past life. Suddenly, he saw her mother look towards his direction. The sudden turn of head alerted Elizabeth and her dad as Aaron asked
"What happened, darling?"
"I felt someone observing us." Joanne replied warily
"I will get the gun." Aaron nodded and said seriously as he went to get the gun.
After arming themselves, they walked towards the direction where nick stood. By the time, they reached nick had gone far away but still could hear what they said as Joanne said after examining behind the tree.
"It's a werewolf, maybe the Alpha or the Beta."
"He must have followed me, seeing me there." Elizabeth said frustrated and irritated at her low alertness.
"It's okay, you are still young. You will get the hang of it after some practice." Joanne comforted her daughter in a soft caring tone.
"Let's go back. You have class tomorrow." Aaron said firmly as the mother and daughter duo walked back to the house followed by Aaron vigilantly scanning the surroundings.
Nick also went back home as he didn't have much to do here.
BEACON HILLS HIGH SCHOOL
"So, you killed her." Stiles asked as he opened the door hearing the nightmare Scott had about him killing Allison.
"I don't know. I just woke up." Scott said with an irritated sigh.
"And then." Stiles asked
"And I was sweating like crazy, and I couldn't breathe. I have never had a dream where I woke up like that before." Scott replied with an uneasy feeling.
"Really? I have. But usually its ends differently." Stiles replied in a nonchalant manner.
"A, I meant I never had a dream that felt that real,
And B, never give me that much detail about you in bed again." Scott replied in a disgusted tone.
"Noted. Let me take a guess here." Stiles sighed as he said again.
"No, I know, you think it has to do something with me going out Allison tomorrow. Like I am gonna lose control and rip her throat out." Scott said with a disappointed sigh.
"No, of course not." Stiles tried to deny what's in his mind but Scott gives him a look as he continues to say
"Yeah, that's totally it." Scott sighs in disappointment and Stiles tries to cheer him up as he says
"Hey, come on, it's gonna be fine, all right? Personally, I think you are handling this pretty freaking amazingly. You know, it's not like there's a Lycanthropy beginner's class you can take."
"Yeah, not a class, but maybe a teacher." Scott asks for his opinion.
"Who, Derek?" Stiles asks to which Scott nods his head and Stiles slaps the back of his head and berates him
"You forgetting the part where we tossed his ass in jail?"
Scott rubs his but says in despond and confusion
"Yeah, I know, but chasing her, dragging her to the back of the bus, it felt so real."
"How real?" Stiles asks curiously
"Like it actually happened?" Scott says sad and scared as they walk through a double door pushing it open and froze like a deer caught in headlights. They saw the school bus covered with blood all over the bus and door broken and crushed with forensic team taking pictures and samples.
While they stood there frozen, Nick came up behind them and put his hand on their shoulders and said with a smile
"Scott, you had a party last light?"
"What party? Nick help me, I think I killed Allison." Scott pleaded as he was scared for her.
Nick seeing him like this sighed and patted his shoulder as he said
"I am sorry, Scott. I don't know how to help you. Its better if you ask Derek." And then he walked away from them.
Scott and Stiles scared and jittery rushed through the hallways searching for Allison.
"She's probably fine." Stiles said comforting him
"She is not responding to texts, Stiles." Scott said seriously and distressed while Stiles couldn't come up with a reply to his scared friend.
"It could just be coincidence, all right? A seriously amazing coincidence." Stiles said trying to calm him down.
"Just help me find her, okay?" Scott said with an uneasy feeling as he looks for her in the crowd bobbing his head from here to there.
"Do you see her?" Scott asks as he starts to panic and his eyes starts to blur.
"No." Stiles replies in frustration
Scott looking for her starts to increasingly panic and his heartbeat start to increase slowly as he slams into a locker for support and tries to calm himself down by taking deep breaths. But it didn't help him, as he eyes turns golden yellow and nails starts to extend as he punches the locker in anger, breaking it open as it bends in making a crater on the point of contact.
After letting out his anger, Scott takes a few breaths as he came to the realization that he lost control and starts to back away in fear. As he walks back, he gets bumped by someone. He turns and sees it is Allison and smiles with relief and happiness.
"You scared the hell out me." Allison said as she laughed and knelt down to pick her books that fell down while he stares at her like love struck idiot.
"You are okay." Scott asks her for reassurance and comfort as he also knelt down to help her
"Once my heart starts beating again, yeah." Allison jokes to cover that she startled when Scott bumped into her while picking up the book from the ground.
"What?" Allison asked as she noticed Scott looking at her weirdly and paused picking the book.
"I am just happy to see you." Scott said in solace while he picked the last book and they both stood up as he gave her the book. The speaker in background said
"Attention, students, this your principal. I know you all are wondering about the incident that occurred last night to one of our buses. While the police work to determine what happened, classes will proceed has scheduled."
The students who heard this groaned in disappointed. While Allison says with shy smile
"Thank you." She then rubs his head flirtingly and asks
"Save me a seat at lunch?"
"Yeah." Scott said in trance looking at her beauty and follows her with his eyes as she walks away. After she turned a corner, he looked away and saw Jackson trying to fix the locker that he broke in frustration. Jackson fed up that he can't fix it notices Scott looking at him weirdly as he says in irritation
"What are you looking at, ass wipe?"
Scott looks at him with a pity and guilt and turns away when Jackson insults him as he grins at his own mischief.
