True Survival || Teen Wolf

3 - Thirty-four

"Do you know what happened to Stiles's father?" I asked her,

"No," Jennifer snapped,

"Ask her why she almost killed Lydia," Scott said glaring at her,

"Or why she tried to Danny," Leo said through gritted teeth,

"Lydia Martin? Danny Mahealani? I don't know anything about that," She said hysterically , she looked back at them then to me

"What do you know?" I asked as calmly as I could muster,

"I know that these boys, for whatever misguided reason, are filling your head with an absurd story. And one they can't prove, by the way," Jennifer said to me, then she glanced at Leo, "and I told you there's something wrong with him,"

"You're lying Jennifer," Leo said with coyly,

"What if we can prove it?" Scott asked, he pulled a jar out from behind his back filled with a light brown, powered substance,

"What is that?" Jennifer asked sounding skittish,

"Its fairy dust, Wendy," Leo said sarcastically,

"My boss told me it's a poison and a cure..." Scott said taking off the cap, "which means you can use it... and it can be used against you,"

"Mistletoe?" Jennifer asked but she knew what it was,

Scott swung his hand releasing the substance into the air. The brown cloud consumed her and what I saw next shocked me. Her face was pale and clawed. Her eyes lacked color and life. She was a monster, hidden away by forces I didn't fully comprehend. She shook off the dust revealing her second face, anger filled me at the deception so I grabbed her by the neck.

"Derek, wait, wait! You need me," Jennifer said as I gripped her neck,

"What are you?" I asked her as my anger started to boil,

"The only person who can save your sister. Call Peter. Call him!" She said in a struggle, I pulled out my phone and asked Peter how was Cora's condition,

"It's not good. She's in and out of consciousness. She's vomiting up black blood along with one other alarming substance," Peter said against the noise in the background,

"Mistletoe," I mutter in the phone as my grip tightened around Jennifer's neck,

"How did you know that?" Peter asked but I ended the call,

"Derek. Derek, what are you doing?" Scott asked me in panicked tone,

"Killing her genius," Leo said with a voice full of hatred,

"Her life... it's in my hands!" Jennifer coughed out, but I squeezed tighter,

"Stop. Derek, stop!" Stiles pleaded,

"Stilinski, you'll never find him," Jennifer coughed out, but I refused to let her go,

"Derek. Derek!" Scott called put but I didn't stop,

"Derek," I heard Leo call out and I glanced back at him, "drop her,"

I contemplated it, and the look of his eyes told me to stop, so I did. She landed on the floor and slowly looked up at us.

"That's right. You need me. All of you," She said looking between us as the thunder clapped and lightning flashed,

Afterwards we all moved to our cars and piled inside. I pushed Jennifer into my passenger seats while Leo climbed in the back, and Scott and Stiles drove in his jeep.

"You should know I'm not doing this because I have to. I want to. I could still run, and you wouldn't have an easy time stopping me. But I don't want your sister to die. I'm only doing what I had to do," She told me as I drove us to the hospital,
