HELLO FELLOW READERS!
I am back and summer is finally here which means TEEN WOLF is back! The season premiere was awesome (as always) but somewhat slow. I'll let it slide since it's the first episode and usually the first episode builds up the action that we'll see later on the season. I really enjoyed this episode because the Teen Wolf gang went to Mexico (feeling represented :D!) and it's something different than just being in Beacon Hills.
As I said way back in like March or April (I forgot…) Isaac will still be in my story. So Isaac is still with the gang, but Allison is sadly dead (*tears*). I'll try to fit Isaac into the scenes as best as I can so any Isaac fans: I'm hope you're happy !
Enough of my rambling and enjoy the first chapter of An Ablution from the Ruins!
Disclaimer: I don't own anything, but my OCs…
Lucy's body danced to the rhythm of the beat that blasted from the speakers around the nightclub. She was on the outskirts
of the crowd, her brown eyes scanning the place to look out for anything suspicious. However, she tried to blend in with her surroundings as she pretended to be a regular partygoer enjoying her time being young. As her left-heeled boot tapped along the music, from the corner of her eye she noticed someone approaching her.
"Hey, mamita," a thick male voice purred beside Lucy. She turned her head to her left and analyzed the man. He was taller than her by a few inches with a few muscles appearing from underneath his dress shirt. His arm extended behind Lucy as his palm connected with the large pillar beside her. Cocking his head with a smirk, he continued. "What's a pretty lady like you standing by yourself instead of dancing? ¿Por qué no vengas conmigo? I'll show you a good time."
Lucy sent him a fake, sweet smile. "I'm not a dancer."
"With that body," he murmured lowly as his lustful eyes wandered around her. Growing closer, Lucy felt his disgusting hot breath hitting her face. "I don't think I believe that."
"And I frankly don't care," she fiercely growled as if she were a tigress defending her territory. Her burning brown eyes pierced at him with warning. "I suggest you leave before things get ugly."
He shook his head. "I think I'll stay."
"I don't know about you," a familiar voice boasted behind the man and Lucy's eyes smiled at the glowing light. The man spun around to face Isaac who stood with his thick arms crossed above his toned chest. The werewolf easily over towered the guy and his blue eyes radiated with confidence and power. "But I think she told you to leave."
"Hey man, get your own!"
"First: she isn't an object," Isaac slithered closer to idiot, his shoulders seeming to grow wider as his eyes narrowed at him. He effortlessly placed himself between Lucy and the man with his body blocking her from the guy's lustful eyes and Isaac held his head high. "And second: she's my girlfriend. Get lost."
The man grunted as defeated splashed at him. Storming away from them, Isaac held a satisfactory smile as he spun around to see Lucy chuckling at him. Leaning closer to him with her hand running down his chest, he wrapped his arm around her waist. Lucy pulled away slightly as her eyes stared at him.
"Thanks, Isaac."
"You know I won't let some guy to try hit on you," he spoke with a soft grin and Lucy merely shrugged against him. As she shifted her head, her hair moved to the side and Isaac narrowed his eyes at her face. Bringing a finger to her right cheek, he touched the skin and Lucy snapped her attention back to him. Isaac lifted the finger to his nose and smelled the substance. "You're wearing makeup?"
"We're at a party, Isaac."
The werewolf frowned. "But you're hiding your scar. I thought we went through this, Lucy: it's nothing to be ashamed of. Why are you trying to cover up your bravery with foundation?"
Lucy deeply sighed while pulling away from his grasp. "I know, Isaac, but I'm just not ready to accept it okay? It's still too soon."
"Too soon to embrace your courage?"
"Too soon because it still reminds me of her," she sharply stated at him and she gave Isaac her look if he were to challenge her. Knowing he wouldn't win, he had let go of the battle. Lucy glanced around the nightclub, the music growing louder into the night although she managed to block the sounds from her ears. "It's still too soon and the scar only reminds me of that night, Isaac. I promise you that once I'm ready I'll stop using the makeup, but right now: I just can't."
The conversation had ended with that note. Isaac knew that Allison's death affected everyone, especially Scott, Lydia and Lucy. Two months were not enough to forget the huntress and since Allison had died saving him: it hurt that he couldn't thank her for her selfless bravery. As the silence had fallen upon the couple, they kept on the lookout for Stiles and Lydia who were the last two to arrive the nightclub.
Isaac easily spotted the two from the crowd, his werewolf eyesight becoming handy for any danger. Isaac could also pick out Scott from the club, the alpha hidden in the shadows although McCall gave Isaac a small of acknowledgment. Shifting his eyes away from Scott, he sensed Malia's energy from the dance floor as the were-coyote enjoyed, in what seemed, her first party as a human. Kira was sitting on one of the sofas around the club, but her defenses were high on alert.
Severo had approached Stiles and Lydia from behind. Isaac held his heavy gaze near the bar as a slight frown appeared on his face. Even though them being captured by Severo was part of the plan, Isaac couldn't help but feel the need to save the two. Lucy only held him back so that their cover wouldn't blow over and they continued with the façade appearance of enjoying the club. The two moved to the beat while keeping their ears and eyes open for any danger. From behind Lucy, Isaac noticed one of the guards move through the crowd as he spoke into his walkie-talkie.
"They're searching for us," Isaac whispered into her ear and Lucy quickly glanced behind her shoulders to see the guard come closer towards them. "What do we do?"
"Give me a kiss. People hate PDA," she ordered him and Isaac quickly captured her lips without hesitation. Lucy wrapped her arms around his neck and pushed him against the pillar as she felt his arms slither their way around her waist. There was a brief shadow looming beside them before it disappeared and Lucy opened one eye to see if the man was gone. His back was towards them and he spoke through the walkie-talkie before leaving the crowd. Lucy then pulled away from the kiss and tried to catch some of her breath. "I think we're safe."
"Good, because I don't think I finished," he muttered against her hair and Lucy rolled her eyes only to give him a quick peck on the lips. The beta sighed as he softly banged his head behind the pillar before shutting his eyes. With his arms holding Lucy, he didn't mind to relax for a brief moment even though he was technically in a lair filled with werewolf hunters.
Lucy thought they were free, but her eyes widen to see the same guard return to her sight. This time, however, there was a gun clearly shown in his grip with another guy and the two quickly searched through the crowd. The girl's breath hitched as she rapidly tapped Isaac awake with a warning.
"Isaac," she alerted the werewolf with her urgent voice. Isaac blinked and narrowed his eyes in confusion while Lucy nodded her head behind him. "He's coming back with help this time and I think they know we're here and look," she gestured to the crowd where Malia and Kira were. "There are some hunters surrounding them, too."
The hunters had spotted them and the two began to race through the crowd. Lucy and Isaac pulled away as they prepared to fight against them. Lucy slid behind the pillars as she stretched her neck out. Letting one of the hunters pass, she roughly pulled the other hunter off the path and slammed him against the wall. With her boot, she had kicked the weapon away from his grasp and immediately punched him to knock him out.
Lucy soon ran away from the scene and spotted her brother beside Isaac. "What do we do now?"
"We get Stiles and Lydia," Scott answered while nodding at Kira that the plan was moving upwards. "Come on! There's a door that leads upstairs."
As the five teenagers left the party scene, Scott led them to the door that was heavily guarded before. He allowed them to go first before carefully closing the door and headed to the front of the group. "Follow me, they're down this way."
"Do you think she's trying to stop us?" Lucy spoke as they walked down the hallways. "She has eyes and ears everywhere."
Scott glanced behind him. "We'll be fine. I can sense their heartbeats as they're not too far away."
"Wait!" Isaac pointed forward at the gas appear from the corner. "What's that?"
Before Scott had a chance to investigate further, everyone jumped as more gas exploded from all sides and the alpha caught the scent. "It's wolfsbane! Kira, Lucy: get out of here! Go!"
"Scott! Isaac!" Lucy screamed at her brother and boyfriend, but the two werewolves began to violently cough as the poison was entering their body system. Kira wasn't sure what to do, as they were the only two not being affected by the gas, but seeing Scott weak was horrible for her. "Kira, your right!"
Kira spun around to see a guy approach her with a weapon and she quickly tried to fight him off. The wolfsbane was making it hard for her to see and soon fell to the ground from being hit. Lucy reached for her knife that was hidden underneath her sleeve and charged at the man, but the girl was struck from behind. Falling to the ground as well, the last thing she heard was her brother and Isaac's screams.
Lucy groaned as she felt her head pound roughly against her skull.
She wasn't sure why her back felt like as if she was slammed against a heavy brick wall multiple times, but she couldn't move too easily. Blinking her eyes, she began to adjust herself with the slightly dimmed lights and her vision began to clear up. There was a blurry figure, but as soon as the picture became clear: it was Isaac and Kira sitting in front of her.
Isaac carefully hugged her. "Thank god you're okay!"
"What happened?" Lucy croaked as she rubbed her eyes before staring at Kira. "Where's Lydia and Stiles?"
"I'm here," Stiles greeted her with a slight wave. He then began to approach the female McCall while Isaac helped the girl stand on her feet. "As for Lydia: she's not here."
Kira frowned. "They took her."
"What about Scott? Where is he?"
Stiles sadly gestured the alpha sleeping on the tiled floor. "He hasn't wakened up yet. We're not sure when he's going to wake up."
Lucy ran a nervous hand through her hair. "Did you guys look for a way out?"
"Every inch," Malia spoke from her place of the dirty bathroom. She had both hands behind her back and the were-coyote held a calm expression. "Nothing could escape this place."
"We even tried breaking through the door," Isaac added, but frowned. "It's pretty sturdy and tough. Now way on breaking that thing down."
Kira went to check on Scott and Lucy rubbed her arms for comfort. Not a minute later that she heard Kira shout, "He's awake! Guys, he's awake!"
Everyone rushed towards the alpha and Lucy knelt closer to her brother. Stiles followed Lucy's lead and leaned towards his best friend. "Scott, you okay?"
"Please say something, Scott," Lucy begged like a worried child.
"Yeah," he breathed out as they helped him sit up. "They don't have him. They don't have Derek."
"We know that," Isaac confirmed what Scott told them.
"But right now they've got Lydia," Kira informed him and Scott furrowed his eyes in confusion.
He shook his head. "Lydia? What do they want with Lydia?"
"We're not sure," Lucy spoke although she let her eyes glance at Stiles. "Although I have a feeling they're trying to use her banshee powers for something. Something that they probably want."
"I feel like they're trying to use her to find Derek," Isaac mentioned.
"Shit," Scott cursed as he sprung to his feet and jumped around the room. He was trying to find a way out and the werewolf used all his strength to find some sort of opening. Rushing towards the large door, he tried pulling it but the door was tightly shut as if magic hot glue was poured on the sides. "Why can't this open?"
"We already looked for a way out," Kira told him with her hands resting on her hips. "I think a lot of people had."
Malia's voice spoke again. "I say when that door opens again, we take out whoever's standing in the way and run for it."
"What about Lydia?"
"What about her?"
Lucy leaned her head forward with a cocked eyebrow as her arms crossed over her chest. "Um, excuse me, but what do you mean by that?"
Isaac held the girl back although he knew she wasn't going to do anything. Scott had walked towards them. "We're not leaving without her."
"Why not?" Malia's oblivious nature irked Lucy who could only tilt her head to the side as if what she heard was real. Before Malia could say something else, Stiles immediately came to her rescue.
"Because we don't leave without people," he reasoned with the young girl. "Remember, we talked about this? Rules of the wild kingdom don't apply to friends."
Kira was fascinated and curious by this information. "Is that what you would do as a coyote, leave her for dead?"
Malia nodded. "If she was weal and injured, yeah. If hunting had been bad that season, I would eat her," she stated before taking a brief pause. "Then I'd leave."
Lucy glanced at Stiles who merely shrugged. "Believe it or not, that's progress."
"I don't know if I'm comfortable knowing that she could leave me for dead in the wild," Isaac complained and Stiles rolled his eyes.
"You have powers to heal, Isaac," the human boy grunted at the werewolf. "Don't start whining like you always do."
Scott soon stepped in. "All right, guys. Let's not began to fight. Look, we're not dead yet and that means Araya wants something."
"But if the Calaveras don't know where Derek is," Kira thought as she stared at Scott, "that means they didn't take him from the loft, right?"
"It makes sense," Lucy agreed with Kira at the suggestion. "Why would they lie something about that?"
"Maybe he left on his own," Stiles suggested.
"Maybe someone else got to him," Scott thought.
"But who would get him?" Isaac asked him and Scott could only shrug in hopelessness. The door had opened wide and everyone turned their attention to the three hunters entering with Severo leading the way. He was marched towards Scott who extended his claws out. Isaac revealed his claws and his eyes shined yellow, ready to attack.
Severo was quick to shock Scott again with one of the hunters shocking Isaac to the floor. Both wolves fell to the ground as another hunter snatched Kira away from the room. Severo ordered the other henchman to take Scott as well while eying everyone in the room. Lucy was already near Isaac as she held him in her grasp and watched as the door closed once again.
It seemed like hours in the bathroom, but it was hard since there was no clock on the wall.
Isaac was still weak from the severe beatings he undertook just tonight and couldn't help Stiles tell him what was happening in the other floor. Malia was sitting beside a sink as she tried to hear the sounds and Stiles sighed as he paced.
"Do you hear them? Can you hear Scott?" Stiles began to ask Malia as she was their only source of super-hearing right now. As the girl shook her head, Stiles rubbed his chin as his pace increased. "Can you hear Kira, Lydia, anybody? What are they saying?"
"I…I can't," Malia felt hopeless, as she couldn't do this. "I can't concentrate. I…there's too many sounds and voices."
"I hear sounds and voices, too," Isaac muttered from his mouth and Lucy nodded as she stared at Stiles trying to help Malia. "They're low, but I can feel Scott's energy. It's too much for him…he's being stressed out…"
The soft voices of Stiles and Malia being exchange could barely be heard from where Lucy sat. She could simply watch from afar on Stiles doing the best he could on coaching Malia to focusing her powers. Stiles told Malia something before she had kissed him. That had thrown both Lucy and Isaac, but the two could see Malia's eyes turn blue once they pulled apart.
"Focus on the sound, Malia," Lucy begged for her to do and the girl nodded as she concentrated for the voices. Turning her head side to side, she tried to use her ears on locating any sounds. The lights from above began to flicker and it seemed like a horror movie happening inside the bathroom. Lucy had helped Isaac move closer towards where Stiles sat and the brunette stared at Malia for any news.
Malia glanced at Lucy and Stiles. "They're killing him."
"No…" Lucy gasped with her hand flying to her mouth.
"Wait!" Malia blurted out as she began to hear something else. A name that she had no familiar ties with. "Scott said Kate…The shape shifter they're looking for is Kate."
Both Stiles and Lucy's faces drained in color.
"What?!" Lucy screeched at the sudden news. "Are you sure that's what Scott said? Maybe you misheard it or something, but it can't be true!"
Stiles nodded as he backed away. "That's impossible. It's impossible. That can't be what he said."
Malia glanced at the two who were most worried. "Why? Who…Who's Kate?"
Lucy stared at Stiles who sighed. "She's a hunter. An Argent."
"Add she's someone who is considered dangerous," Lucy warned Malia with a firm tone. "Very dangerous."
"And she's back," Isaac mumbled with fright and disbelief.
She was back.
That's the end of chapter one!
