Chapter Text

Emery Stilisnki was in her bedroom looking through her grimoire when her father knocked on her door "Sapphire" Emery looked up when she heard her middle name, only her father and one other person was aloud to call her that "Hey daddy" Emery smiled at her dad closing her grimoire "Everything okay?" she asked looking at his Sheriff uniform "Yeah, but I want you to stay home for the night, something happened in the woods" 

Emery raised an eyebrow "Some late night joggers found half a body. I need to go in" Noah answered his daughter silent question "Okay, stay-" Emery was cut off as her dad was cast in a red light "Daddy!" Emery yelled before she was taken as well 

  ŦŦŦŦ

Emery hit the ground hard making her groan "Fuck" she cursed slowly getting up. Noah looked at his daughter and was going to go to her when a voice stopped him 

"Language Sapphire" 

Melissa, Scott. Stiles and Lydia froze, the four of them knowing that only Noah was allowed to call Emery by her middle name. And that was most defiantly not their father/Sheriff voice. Noah and Emery froze for a different reason, they know that voice. The father-daughter duo turned to the woman standing before them. Dark brown hair falling to her shoulders, green eyes glowing happily, a smile that made whoever it was amid at make them feel warm 

"Talia" 

"Mom"  

Stiles looked between his dad and twin confused wondering how they know this woman. He also saw the love in his father eyes and frowned wondering why he was looking at that woman with love when he was loved his mother 

Talia smiled at the two of them "Hi Noah. Hi Sapphire" The two stared at the woman before Emery made the first move, quickly getting up and throwing herself into her mother arms making Talia stumble back a little but wrapped her arms around her daughter "Mom. Emery" Laura, Cora and Derek yelled joining the hug 

Noah and Peter stared at the group before joining the hug as well. Talia smiled tightening her arms around her kids, happy that her family is back in her arms even if it was just for now. After a minute the group pulled back, Talia looking at all her kids, brother and love with a smile "Derek, Laura, Cora, Peter" Emery pulled each in a hug, though hugging Peter and Derek for longer 

Laura and Cora shared a smirk as the saw their brother and uncle holding Emery for longer than normal but didn't say anything as they turned to Noah and pulled him into a tight hug "Girls" He kissed their heads. The two She-wolves were like his other daughters, he loved them like he loved his Emery 

Laura and Cora smiled pulling back before they hugged Peter as Noah hugged Derek tightly then moved to Peter "Glad to see you" Noah muttered to his best friend. Knowing Peter was in a coma healing little by little broke him "It's good to see you too" Peter told him 

Emery looked around and noticed her best friend was in the room, along with Scott, Stiles and Melissa, along with two people she didn't know "Who the hell are you?" Emery asked narrowing her eyes at the man and girl, grabbing Lydia by the arm, dragging her away from the unknown people 

Stiles looked on with a frown as Melissa grabbed both him and Scott pulling them away from the man and girl. Why did his sister grab Lydia to protect her but not him? He was her twin, even if Lydia was her bestfriend so why did she immediately grab Lydia to protect her but did nothing to protect him? 

The man held the girl to him tightly- Stiles could guess she was his daughter- and cleared his throat, tensing as he shifted his daughter behind him like he was getting ready to protect her "Chris Argent" 

Immediately growls filled the room as the wolves, Emery and Noah stood in front of Lydia, Melissa, Scott and Stiles- Noah having grabbed the three and pushed them behind them- Derek, Cora, Talia, Laura and Peter eyes flashed blue, red and yellow. Noah had his gun in his hand, pointed to the ground but ready to shoot if needed, Emery eyes glowed gold as a ball of magic formed in her hand ready to protect her family 

The girl yelped as her dad pushed her fully behind him and pulled out his gun aiming it at the group. Melissa, Scott and Stiles eyes widen in fear hearing the growling and seeing the magic and guns while Lydia eyes widen in fascination seeing the magic her best friend is using 

"ENOUGH!" 

Everyone attention snapped to the front of the room where a woman in her early to mid 30's was standing. She had black hair that fell in waves to her hips, fair skin but what drew them in where her glowing gold eyes, the were's, Noah and Emery noticed it was just like Emery eyes when she used magic 

"Claws, magic and gun away. Now" The woman stressed when no one moved. Talia and Noah shared a look before Talia shifted back and Noah put his gun away, motioning to the others to do the same. Laura, Peter, Cora and Derek shifted back and Emery let her magic fade. Chris put his gun away when he saw no threat towards him and his daughter. The woman nodded before her eyes faded into dark blue  

"Now since your all calm, we can start. My name is Odessa. Odessa Gajos" Emery eyes widen as she took a step forward "The Odessa Gajos?" The woman nodded smiling at her descendent "Yes, I am. And I've brought you all here to stop somethings" Stiles stepped next to his dad "And how do we do that?" He asked not liking how his sister could know this person

Odessa glared at him for a moment, she has been watching over Emery from the moment she was born and she didn't like what her mother or her brother has put her through "You will be watching the future life of someone in here" she told everyone "Now introduce yourselves, what you are and then we can begin"

Talia stepped in front of her kids keeping her eyes on Chris "Talia Hale. Alpha Werewolf" Allison blinked wondering why they were all looking at her dad like he would start shooting but didn't say anything as a man with sandy blond hair and blue eyes stepped next to Talia "Peter Hale. Beta Werewolf" 

"Cora Hale. Beta Werewolf" 

"Laura Hale. Alpha Werewolf" 

"Derek Hale. Beta Werewolf" 

"Noah Stilisnki. Human protector of the supernatural" Chris looked over Noah, he's heard of human protectors. Their kind of like hunters but instead of trying to kill Supernatural's they protect them 

"Emery Stilisnki. Spark" Chris looked at the girl in disbelief, Sparks haven't been seen in more than 3 decades and now a 16 year old is claiming to be one of the most powerful magic welders known to man 

"Stiles Stilisnki. Human" Stiles said looking at his sister and father wondering why his twin was a supernatural and he was a human 

"Scott McCall. Human" 

"Melissa McCall. Human" 

"Lydia Martin. Human" 

"Allison Argent. Human" 

Chris cleared his throat knowing what he was about to say would probably change how Allison saw him "Chris Argent...Werewolf Hunter" Allison looked at her father confused and a little frightened "What?" She whispered 

"Allison-" Odessa cut him off before he could say anything "Alright everyone. Sit down, go on" Slowly they started sitting down, Talia keeping her kids, Peter and Noah close to her. Emery got Lydia to sit with them, not wanting her best friend near the Argents until they can see if the two are a threat to them or not "Alright. First thing you are going to see is some clips of the person life we're watching" Odessa said before the lights dimmed and the screen turned on

Chapter Text

Emery sat in-between Derek and Peter, with the rest of her family and Lydia surrounding them. Stiles looked at his dad and sister with a small frown from his spot next to Scott but didn't say anything as the lights dimmed and the screen turned on 

My names Emery Stilisnki 

Emery blinked when her voice came through the screen

Emery Stilisnki walked over to her bedroom window. Her blond hair tied into a high ponytail. Her sapphire blue eyes shinning in the moon light I'm a lot of things to a lot of people. I'm a daughter

Noah and Emery stand side-by-side in the kitchen cooking 

Talia tucks a little Emery into a bed, that wasn't her own, kissing her head "Goodnight little one" Talia whispered

Talia smiled warmly at the screen, reaching over to kiss her daughter head, making Emery smile. Noah looked at the two with a smile of his own, this was what he missed, seeing the two interact with each other, seeing the love Talia held for Emery, like she was her own

I'm a sister

Lydia held up a dress to Emery body "When did I agree to being a dress up doll?" Emery asked amused. Lydia smiled at her "When you said we're sisters" Lydia told her adding the dress to the stack in her arms 

8-year-old Cora and Emery run around together with a 16-year-old Laura running after them all laughing 

Stiles frowned as he watched his sister, playing with the girls and going out. He frowned even more when it didn't show him and Emery together, she's his sister. His twin.

I'm a lover

Emery hugging many people

Emery kissed her dad cheek

Emery smiling at a little girl, helping her stand

I'm a fighter

Little Emery, in a hospital bed with Noah at her side

Stiles looked at the screen, shocked "You were in the hospital?" He blurted out looking at his twin who didn't even bother to look at him "Yeah" He flinched at the coldness in her tone

8-year-old Emery boxing with a younger looking Peter 

16-year-old boxing with Noah 

But what some don't know about me, is that I'm also...

4-year-old Emery stood in her bedroom breathing heavily as books fell to the ground

10-year-old Emery stood with her dad in the woods, holding her hand, a ball of light formed. Noah stood back looking at her with a proud smile

16-year-old Emery pacing back and forth in the kitchen before screaming sending the kitchen table into the wall with a flick of her wrist 

A spark. 

Chris looked at the girl sitting in the room, and wondered how she became a spark. How in the hell, did someone who has a human father and human brother become a powerful Supernatural creature 

Stiles and Scott shared a look wondering how many times, could Emery have hurt them when they were so mean to her. Stiles wondered why his sister didn't tell him, why she didn't trust him with this. Why his father didn't? 

To understand my life, you have to see it for yourselves 

The screen turned black before it started up again 

It was night time. The Stilisnki house was shown before it zoomed in on the attic. Wooden floors were shown, before it moved up showing a wall filled with photos. Noah and Emery together cooking together. Lydia and Emery at a party. Young Cora and Emery near a fire cooking smores 

Emery Stilisnki  sat in her bedroom looking through her grimoire

"Look's like it's starting right from the beginning" Noah told everyone knowing that just happened before they were taken

"A what?" Lydia asked looking at her sister "A grimoire. Or a witches book. It has all types of spells and while I don't really need it, I do like to learn spells. Makes my life easier" Emery told her sister 

When her father knocked on her door "Sapphire" Emery looked up when she heard her middle name, only her father and one other person was aloud to call her that "Hey daddy" Emery smiled at her dad closing her grimoire "Everything okay?" she asked looking at his Sheriff uniform "Yeah, but I want you to stay home for the night, something happened in the woods"

Emery raised an eyebrow "Some late night joggers found half a body in the woods. I need to go in" Noah answered his daughter silent question "Okay, stay safe" Noah smiled walking towards his little girl and placing a kiss on her head "Always" He promised before leaving 

Emery sighed once he left and looked up at the stars through the over head window when her phone started ringing from her bedside table. Reaching over, she grabbed it without looking who it was "Hello?" 

"Emery, meet me outside" 

"Derek" Emery sat up quickly 

Emery turned to Derek "Your in Beacon Hills and didn't tell us!" She smacked Derek arm making him huff knowing Noah is glaring at the back of his head "I'm sorry. I was going too" Derek told his girl making her huff 

"Get dress and meet me outside Emery. Please" 

Emery was already moving "I'll be out there in 5" She said before hanging up. Emery pulled open her closet and grabbed a pair of black pants and a long sleeve green sweater (On the left side is a mix of pants, shorts and skirts. The shoes are the same. Imagine more clothes hanging up)  

"I always loved your room but I love your closet more" Lydia told her sister making Emery laugh "Yeah I know. You only raid it every time your over" Emery teases her. 

Stiles looked between his twin and Lydia confused. He's never seen Lydia over at the house, and how come she was allowed upstairs in the attic when he wasn't even allowed in the stairway to Emery room 

Once she was changed and threw on some sneakers, Emery rushed down her stairs and out the house "Derek?" She called looking around. Emery spun around only to gasp in shock seeing Derek standing in front of her "God Der! Make a sound" Emery told him 

"Sorry" Derek smiled 

Emery looked at Derek "You need a bell" she deadpanned making Laura and Cora laugh at their brother's offended face 

Emery rolled her eyes but smiled back, before jumping forward wrapping her arms around his neck "I missed you" Emery muttered

"I missed you too" Derek muttered back burying his nose in Emery blond hair taking in her coconut shampoo. The last time the two saw each other was last summer right before Emery 16th birthday when her and Noah took a trip down to New York

"You guys went to New York?" Stiles looked between his twin and father. Emery rolled her eyes as Noah sighed "Yes, which you would have known, if you listened to me when I was trying to tell you instead of walking out to go to Scott's" Noah deadpanned 

Stiles flushed bright red remembering that morning. Emery and Noah were in the kitchen making breakfast when he walked in, grabbed an apple and walked out not caring that his father was trying to talk to him because Scott needed his help with a paper for school 

The two held each other for a moment longer, feeling better than they have before. Since Emery 16th birthday, the two felt off, like something was missing and even though Emery still felt that she wasn't complete, being around Derek felt like a part returned to her

Noah and Talia shared a look before looking at Derek, Emery and Peter, knowing that the spell would have worn off at midnight of Emery birth 

"So what are you doing here? I thought the agreement was for you and Laura to stay in New York" Emery reminded him as she pulled back. Derek smile slipped off his face, his eyes gaining a look that Emery knew too well 

"Who died?" She asked right away 

The Hales-bar Derek, Peter and Laura- Emery and Noah tensed up ready to hear who was the next to fall

"Emery" 

"Who. Died." Emery stared at him blue eyes going so cold that Derek felt a shiver run down his spine 

"Laura" Derek sighed "Laura's dead" 

"What!" Emery, Noah and Cora yelled as Peter shut his eyes tightly before snapping them open when he saw flashes of what he did. He jumped in his seat when someone grabbed his hand, turning he saw Laura smiling sadly at him "It's okay. I know" She whispered, remembering everything from that night 

Peter smiled slightly back as he tried to blink back tears

"Laura's dead?" Emery whispered. Derek immediately gathered the blond in his arms holding her tightly, as Noah did the same for Talia and Cora. Lydia looked at her best friend sadly knowing how close the two sisters were, even if they lived in different states 

Emery froze for a second "What?" She whispered tears filling her eyes "Laura's dead" Emery repeated falling down to sit on the porch steps. Derek didn't say anything as he sat next to her, taking her hand in his 

The two sat in silence for a while, Derek letting the girl process what she just found out "Was...Was she cut in half?" Emery suddenly question

"No" Noah whispered closing his eyes "Please. Please tell me I'm not looking for my daughter body" He looked at Odessa who looked at him with sympathy, giving Noah the answer needed

Talia held her love hand running a hand through his hair to keep him calm as Emery took a shuttering breath, hiding her face in Derek shoulder 

"Yeah" Derek nodded looking at Emery confused "How did you know?" 

"Because, dad is out looking for another half of a body in the woods" Emery told him, making Derek pale a little. God, how will Noah react when he finds his eldest daughter body 

Stiles frowned when Emery said 'dad is looking' like Derek is his son. He's the only son of Noah and  Claudia Stilisnki, not Derek. He doesn't even share blood, and eldest daughter? Emery is his dad only daughter 

The two looked at each other before standing up "Cars over here" Derek still holding Emery hand pulled her down the street a little towards his Camaro "Hopefully we can find her before he does" Emery muttered as she got in the car   

  ŦŦŦŦ

Emery and Derek were walking through the forest, Emery now wearing a large leather jacket that is clearly Derek's and Derek holding a big blanket 

Noah and Talia smiled slightly seeing that. Emery would always steal Peter and Derek's clothes, wearing them all the time no matter if it's too big for her 

"We should have brought flashlights" Derek muttered as they walked through the dark woods. He would use his eyes but if hunters were out here, he didn't want to give them a reason too shoot at them when they see his eyes 

"I got it" Emery held out her hands, cupping her left hand over her right closing her eyes before she lifted up her left hand, leaving a ball of light in her right hand 

"Woah" Lydia breathed out seeing her sister do magic "You didn't say a spell" Allison pointed out. Emery nodded looking at the Argent girl "No. If I was a witch then I would say the spell but I'm a spark, like I said early we don't need spells but since I'm still a young spark I use them for the more tricky spells" Allison nodded in thanks and turned back to the screen

Emery looked at Derek with a proud smile making him smile back "Your getting better at that" He commented. Emery shrugged as they continued to walk "It's getting easier, I don't have a lot of outburst anymore, so..." she trailed off 

Derek looked at her and went to say something when he tripped over something "Der" Emery reached out her left hand, grabbing him to stop him from falling "I'm okay" Derek breathed out standing up straight 

Emery nodded and turned to see what Derek tripped over, covering her mouth at what she saw "Derek" Emery voice broke. Derek followed her line of sight and felt his heart break 

Laura's eyes, once filled with light and love, stared back at them, motionless, no emotion in them, the top of her body cut at the waist 

Cora covered her mouth seeing her big sister body cut in half. Emery held onto Derek tighter looking away from her big sister body. Peter felt his heart break seeing what he had done. Talia and Noah felt the air leave their lungs seeing their daughter dead. Derek closed his eyes, tightening his hold on Emery 

Melissa, Chris, Allisson and Lydia looked at them in pity and sympathy which made the Hale kids bristle. They all hated pity, more then they hated the stupid sorry's they get when people find out what happened to their family  

The two swallowed back the bile that was rising in their throats, tears in their eyes, before Emery leaned down and closed her big sisters eyes before Derek leaned down next to her and covered Laura's body with the blanket and picking her up "Come on" He whispered 

The two walked in the direction of their house 

Arriving at the burnt down Hale house, the two walked into the place they'd called home. Derek gently places Laura down, moving to find rope and wolfsbane while Emery looked around her home

8 years ago...

A little girl with brown hair that reach her shoulders ran across the room "You'll never catch me" The girl yelled. A young Emery, blond hair pulled into a side braid and a blue dress ran after her "Yes I will Cora!" Emery yelled 

The two ran into the living room were a younger looking Noah and Talia could been seen sitting on the sofa cuddling together 

"What the hell!" Stiles yelled seeing his dad cuddling some woman when he was still married to his mom "You-You-You cheated on mom!" He accused pointing a finger at his dad making Melissa, Lydia, Cora, Laura, Derek, Peter and Emery give him looks 

"Are you stupid?" Cora asked him making him turn to her "Everyone knows that dad divorced your mother. The only reason she was even still living in that house was because she became sick a month after the divorce was finalized" 

Stiles looked between his father, sister and Talia wide eyed, mouth opening and closing making Emery sigh "I'm not surprised he didn't notice. Unless it has to do with Scott, that boy is clueless with anything else" she told her sister 

"Dad! Help me" Cora yelled running to Noah "No dad, catch her" Emery yelled following her sister 

Cora jumped onto Noah and Talia making them groan before groaning again when Emery followed suit and jumped onto them too 

"What is going on?" Peter asked walking into the living room "Why are the girls on you?" He asked again when he noticed the girls giggling on top of the adults "Who knows" Noah sighed 

Emery and Cora shared a look before they started to laugh making their family gaze upon them fondly 

The Spark gets snapped out of the memory by Derek placing a hand on her shoulder "You okay?" He asked softly. Emery nodded "Yeah, just haven't been back here for a minute" 

Derek nodded looking around before handing Emery a shovel as he held the rope. The two walked outside and moved to the side of the house, digging in silence. Once they're done, Derek gently lifts Laura body before placing her into the grave as Emery starts wrapping the wolfsbane rope in a spiral around the grave, finishing it off with a wolfsbane plant by a tree

Once done she walked back towards Derek who was looking down at the grave. Where Laura body once was, there was now a black wolf upper body 

"How the hell did that happen?" Melissa exclaimed looking at the two who buried the girl. Emery moved her head so she was facing the woman "It's a ritual that goes back to the very first werewolf. When they die, they will be buried with wolfsbane wrapped in a spiral that will revert them into their true forms. Wolves" 

The Hales all nodded. This has been something they have done for generations, and even though their wasn't any bodies to bury after the fire, Noah, Emery, Derek and Laura made sure the headstone in the graveyard made for all those who died in the fire, had wolfsbane wrapped around it, to give peace to those they lost 

"I got this" Emery whispered to Derek and focused on the pile of dirt next to the grave. Holding her hand to her side, Emery clenched her hand a little and moved it to the grave, the dirt following. A couple seconds later the grave was finished and the two stood in silence 

Derek suddenly turned and pulled Emery into a hug, she returned it tightly burying her head in his shoulder as sobs racked her body "Why is it always our family?" Emery sobbed

Derek had to blink back tears of his own "I don't know" He whispered gently bringing them both down to the forest floors "I don't know" 

Some people had to look away from Emery sobbing. Talia held onto Noah wondering the same thing as her daughter. Why is it their family that suffers so much? Why is it her daughter that suffers?

ŦŦŦŦ  

At the Stilisnki house, Emery is seen sitting in the living room staring at the wall blankly, dried tear streaks running down her face, a now cold mug of tea sitting in front of her

Derek had left 10 minutes ago, knowing that Noah and Stiles would be home and even though he would love to see the man he thinks of as a dad, he did not want to see Stiles. 

At all 

Stiles looked at Derek offended for two reason. One, he is Noah only son. And two, why wouldn't Derek want to meet him? He's done nothing to the guy

Once he left, with the promise to come by tomorrow when Stiles would be at lacrosse practice, Emery just sat there. Not thinking of anything, just staring at the wall blankly 

Emery heard two cars pull into the drive way and knew Stiles and her dad were home but didn't move from her spot. She heard the door open and two people walk in before he father voice reach her ears 

"Go to your room and stay there" Noah pushed his son into the house "Don't even think about leaving until tomorrow morning" Stiles rolled his eyes as he pulled off his sweater "I'm serious Stiles..." Noah trailed off when he entered the living room to see his daughter sitting on the sofa, staring at nothing 

"Sapphire?" 

Stiles stopped at the top of the stairs hearing his father concerned voice 

Emery narrowed her eyes at the screen, why was Stiles stopping? He should just go to his room and ignore them, he's done it before, why not do it again 

Noah moved to stand in front of his daughter "Sapphire? What's wrong? What happened?" He asked again but got no response "Emery" 

Stiles tensed, his father never called Emery by her first name, it's always Sapphire

"Not good" Lydia whispered knowing Stiles was right. Papa Stilisnki always calls Emery, Sapphire. Doesn't matter if he's mad or happy or nervous, it's always Sapphire, so for him to call Emery by her first name instead of her middle name rings bells in her head 

Emery blinked once, twice, before looking up at her dad "What's wrong?" Noah asked. Emery let out a muffled sob as she covered her mouth. Noah immediately dropped to his knees, pulling his daughter into his arms 

"She's gone dad" Emery sobbed into her father shoulder "Laura's gone" Her words were muffled by his shoulder but Noah heard them clearly and felt himself freeze "Was that who..." he trailed off when Emery nodded against his shoulder 

He felt his own tears well up in his eyes, his heart breaking at the fact he lost another daughter "Oh god" He muttered tightening his grip on Emery 

Talia ran a hand through Noah hair as he hide his face in her shoulder. She could feel him shaking and felt her heartbreak. Not only does he have to live with the fact their pack is gone, but now he has to live with Laura dying as well? Her lover and daughter really do have the worst luck 

Stiles walked down the stairs just a little and peeked out from behind the wall, watching his dad and sister cry with a frown. He wondered what happened to cause that reaction out of the both of them 

Emery glared at the screen. She didn't need Stiles to start worrying now. He's lost his chance at being her brother a long time ago

With a sigh, he went back upstairs, closing his door behind him 

Downstairs, Noah felt his daughter go slack in his arms and looked down to see she had fell asleep in his arms. Moving slowly, he moved Emery so she was laying across him and gently picked her up, resting her head on his chest 

Walking up the stairs, to the main hallway, he moved to the door at the end of the wall and opened it, showing another stair well, but this one was decorated. The railings had fairy lights wrapped around them and the walls held photo frames

As Noah walked up the stairs, it showed some of the photos, but one caught everyone attention 

Noah, Emery, Cora, Peter, Derek, Laura and about 20 other people were standing in front of the Hale house, all smiling big bright smiles. Cora was in Noah arms while Emery was in Talia's

The Hales smiled at the sight of the photo. It was taken a week before the Hale fire, the last photo they had taken together, when they were happy and safe 

Chris frowned seeing how the Hales were and felt guilt flow through him 

Once Noah made it upstairs, he gently laid Emery down on her bed and took off her shoes before covering her with her blanket "I love you Sapphire and I promise you. No one will hurt you under my watch" He whispered before kissing her head and leaving 

Noah looked at his daughter and made the same promise his future self did. He wouldn't allow any harm to come to his daughter. Not now, not ever 

Chapter Text

Waking up to the ringing of her alarm, Emery groans as she gets up. Grabbing her phone, she looks at the time 6 AM, with a huff she gets out of bed and heads to her closet grabbing a skirt and white shirt before she heads to her bathroom 

"You have your own bathroom?" Stiles asked looking at his sister who looked at him like he was an idiot "Of course I have my own bathroom" 

Stiles turned to his dad "Why does she get her own bathroom?" Noah shook his head "Why does it matter, you have your own bathroom as well" 

"Well yeah but that came with the house" 

"And I built Sapphire one when building her, her room" Noah told him before turning back to the screen, ending the discussion

Walking out the bathroom, her hair was in lose curls, dressed in a black and white skirt, a long sleeved white shirt with white heeled boots. Moving towards her vanity, she slips on her rings, two on her left and two on her right hand along with a silver triskele necklaces  

"That skirt is too short" Noah told his daughter. Talia hit his chest smiling at her daughter "You look beautiful Sapphire" Emery smiled at Talia "Thanks mom" Stiles tensed hearing Emery call someone else mom but didn't say anything 

Grabbing her rose covered backpack, phone and headphones Emery made her way down stairs 

"Morning Dad" Emery smiled entering the kitchen. Stiles was sitting at the table eating cereal "Moring Sapphire, how do you feel?" Noah asked his daughter 

Emery shrugged taking the to-go cup her dad handed her "I'll be fine" she told him softly. Noah pulled her in for a hug, kissing her head. Emery wrapped an arm around his waist, breathing her dad in before letting go "I have to go, I'm meeting the other girls before school" 

Cora looked at her sister confused "Other girls?" Emery nodded with a bright smile "I joined the cheer team freshman year" Cora smiled back, she knows her sister always wanted to be a cheerleader, ever since they were kids "That's great" Cora hugged her 

Noah nodded "Alright, be careful" 

"I will" Emery grabbed her to-go cup, making her way to the front door, grabbing her keys off the hook. Leaving the house she made her way to her pink Range Rovers, a gift from her father when she turned 16 

"Oh cute" Laura smiled at her dad and sister. Emery smiled "I'm not really a girly girl but I do love my car. Dad got it wrapped for me and if I want to change it, I can" 

Noah shrugged "It was nothing, the plan was always to get you a car" Talia nodded in agreement. It was a tradition in her family that once the teen turned 16, they would get a car 

Once she claimed Emery as her own daughter, she swore to herself that Emery will be treated like her own blood, and that means a car at 16. She's glad Noah still went through the plan 

  ŦŦŦŦ

Pulling up at school, a lot of eyes were on her. Rolling her eyes, she grabs her bag, climbing out the car and walking towards the group of girls standing near the school sign "Hey girls" she smiled at them 

"Hey Emery" The group of 4 girls smiled at their friend "Em, did you hear the rumors?" One girl, Belle asked grabbing the blond arm. Emery shook her head "Isabella got kicked off the team, apparently her and Daniel broke into the school last night and got caught you know" Belle wiggled her eyebrows 

"Ugh" Emery groaned in disgust as the girls laugh

They all knew that their friend was Demi, so talking about sex with her, disgusted her. Not the thought of having sex, but the thought of someone else having sex. When Emery told the four of them and Lydia that she was Demisexual, Abby spent all night researching about it so they could understand their friend better 

Emery blushed bright red as the girls giggled, but she couldn't help but smile remembering when the day after she told them about being Demi, they knew all these facts, some she didn't even know. It was sweet 

Noah looked at his daughter confused "What's Demi?" Emery groaned as his other three daughter- because yes Lydia is another daughter to him- laughed loudly. He looked at Talia confused but she just patted his cheek 

"Wait" Emery held out her hand "If she got kicked off, who's the captain now?" 

Abby, a dark red head with green eyes, smiled "There's talk about you being Captain" Emery jaw dropped "Really?" The four nodded  

"Oh my God!" Emery jumped up and down making the girls laugh. Once she stopped Abby started talking again "Coach said that at practice she'll make the announcement" 

"You are so going to get it" Belle told her as the others nodded in agreement. Emery smiled before catching sight of Lydia "Lyd's is here. I'm going to go tell her" The four nodded waving bye as Emery ran towards Lydia, rushing past her brother and his friend 

She rolled her eyes at the glare McCall threw at her "Ass" She muttered 

"Who?" Lydia asked as Emery walked towards her "Who else. Dumb and dumber" She motioned to Stiles and Scott making Lydia snort "I still don't know how you and him are siblings. Your cool. Nice. Smart and he's..." 

"A dork. Mean. Stuck up Scott's ass" Emery finished making Lydia laugh "Yeah" 

Stiles glared at Emery, was the reason Lydia never looked his way? She had to be, he was a great guy to be around, he doesn't understand why the girls want nothing to do with him or Scott

Emery shook her head "You ready to do this shit?" Emery asked holding out her hand "Always!" The strawberry blond smiled grabbing her sister hand, before strutting into school  

Emery and Lydia smile at each other. The two of them, wouldn't have made it this far without each other. Both kept the other from drowning when times got hard, but they made it

ŦŦŦŦ   

Emery was in English, sitting behind Stiles with a bored expression as she draws in her book, half listening to what Mr. Curtis is saying "As you all know there indeed was a body found in the woods last night" 

Noah sighed, that teacher shouldn't be talking about that, for one, they were students and two, it was an ongoing case they weren't supposed to talk about it

Emery stopped listening to him at that, making a note to talk to her dad about Mr. Curtis. She didn't look up until the door opened and a brunette girl with brown eyes walked in with the principal 

"Class, this is our new student Allison Argent, please do your best to make her feel welcome" The Principal states 

Hearing the last name Emery tensed, watching the girl move to sit down behind Scott, she watched as the McCall boy turned and gave Allison a pen, making her narrow her eyes 

Emery and Noah narrowed their eyes at Scott, they hope to God, he wasn't bitten. He would make a terrible wolf, not following orders, he would hate what he is, unless it helps him get to the top 

Emery shook her head and looked back at her drawing, her eyes widen when she saw what she draw. Slamming her book shut Emery looked out the window 

Noah and Emery shared a look. They knew she sometimes drew things before they happened, and other times, she drew things after they happened, even if she wasn't there to see it happen 

They wonder what it was this time. Something that has happened, or something that hasn't 

  ŦŦŦŦ

Once the bell rings, signaling the end of the day, Emery heads to her locker when she spot Lydia talking to Allison. Walking closer, she catches the end of Lydia statement "And you are my new best friend" 

Emery stops behind Lydia "Awe, so what am I?" She asked, making them both jump not hearing the girl approach  

"My sister from another mister" Lydia states with a smile. Emery smiled throwing her arm around Lydia shoulder "Let's be real, if dad could, you would adopt you" Emery told her 100% positive she's right 

"You are" Noah nodded. If he could, he would adopt Lydia right away, like he was in the middle on adopting Laura and Cora. Not Derek, that would have been weird for his daughter since Talia told him what Her, Derek and Peter were 

Lydia smiled "Well even if you can't, your still better than my bio-dad" Emery huffed "Anyone is better than your bio-dad" She muttered 

Suddenly two arms wrap around Emery and Lydia waist making them jump "Hey girls" Jackson said, laying a kiss on Emery head and a kiss on Lydia cheek "Hey Jackson" The two said smiling at the blond 

Jackson smiled before unwrapping his arm from Emery and wrapping it around Lydia, kissing her, while across the hall, Harley, Stiles and Scott are watching the group, or more like Scott staring at Allison 

"Creepy much" Lydia scrunched her nose. The girls nodded in agreement, even Melissa. Scott was a little creepy for staring at Allison like that from across the hall 

"Can someone tell me how new girl is here all of five minutes and she's already hanging out with Emery and Lydia's clique?" Harley asked though she was obviously being facetious Stiles replies with a genuine answer 

"Because she's hot" Harley gives him a look, which he doesn't catches "Beautiful people herd together" 

Allison, Lydia and Emery smiled at each other, flipping their hair over their shoulders before laughing when they noticed they did it at the same time 

Emery smiled at Allison, she didn't see the Argent teen as a threat, so even though she would be cautious of what she says, she would also treat her normally 

Chris sighed in relief. They have never lived somewhere, where Allison could be a target at School just because of her last name. A target outside of school, yeah, they all were, but School was a safe place for her

He's happy that hasn't changed even though she's going to school with someone who is very well aware of what his family has done 

"Sorry about them. Just ignore then, I do" She said before holding out her hand "I'm Emery Stilinski" she smiled "Allison Argent" Allison took Emery hand, smiling at the girl just as Lydia and Jackson pulled away 

"So this weekend there's a party" Lydia states 

"A party?" Allison asks 

"Yeah Friday night. You should come" Jackson told her

Allison looks slightly bashful when she replies, "Uh, I can't. It's family night this Friday thanks for asking" Emery and Lydia shared a smirk, they could tell she was lying but neither called her out on it

"Family night?" Chris asked looking at his daughter who blushed. Lydia laughed "You can tell me partying isn't your thing. I wouldn't force you" Emery nodded in agreement with her sister knowing Lydia would back off if Allison told her she didn't party 

Sometimes she didn't feel up to a party and Lydia never forced her to go, instead she would send Jackson over before the party with a care package and some movies and Jackson would tell her to take it easy

She really loved her friends 

"You sure? Everyone's going after the scrimmage" Jackson said. Allison tilted her head a little confused "You mean like football?" She questioned

That set Jackson off laughing while Lydia and Emery shook their heads "Football's a joke here in Beacon. The sport here is lacrosse. We've won state championship for the past three years" 

Lydia looks at Jackson with a loving smile "Because of a certain team captain" She states ruffling his hair. Emery looked at them offended "And because the cheerleaders motivate the players" Jackson added making Emery smile 

"Hell yeah we do" Emery said making her family laugh 

Jackson turned back to Allison "We have practice in a few minutes that is if you don't have anywhere else-" 

"Well I was going to-" Allison attempted to get herself out of it "Perfect! You're coming" Lydia cut her off, grabbing her arm "See you on the field Em" Lydia called back

Emery laugh at Allison who was looking at her pleading for help, "Sorry. Got to go" She called rushing towards the girl locker room 

  ŦŦŦŦ

Emery sat on the ground, doing stretch's. She was wearing a baby blue leggings and sport bra and white sneakers 

Ellie, Belle, Abby and Sidney were surrounding her along with the other cheerleaders, 3 more girls and 3 boys "Alright everyone. Stand up" Their cheer coach Mrs.  Shepherd said walking over to her team holding her clip board 

The team quickly stood up, standing in two lines "First I want to congratulate everyone for making the team" The team smiled. Cheer tryouts were two weeks ago, and while Emery, Bell and Abby made the team again along with Daniel and Gianni, Ellie, Sidney, Aiden, Chloe, Rocky and Dani were all knew this year

Emery smiled a little sad. While she felt bad that the other girls she cheered with last year didn't make it, they had themselves to blame since they slacked off. Come on, 3 of them were going into the Junior year, one was in the same year as them and the other 2 are now seniors 

They should have know better and really put in the effort. Though she is happy because before that, Gianni and Daniel were the only guys on the team, so she's happy Aiden joined them 

"And second as some of you know, Isabella is no longer on the team so we will be filling her spot. Since she was Captain, we need a new one. Please give it up for... Emery!" 

Ellie, Belle, Abby and Sidney quickly threw their arms around Emery happy for her while Daniel and Gianni clapped. Dani and Rocky though glared at her, they weren't happy that a sophomore got the Captain spot and not them when they were Senior 

"Oh I don't know maybe because you just joined!" Lydia yelled glaring at the screen. If there's one thing she hated the most was when people, especially girls, put others down just because of their age and gender 

Her sister has always wanted to be a cheerleader, she has worked so hard, spent all summer perfecting her cheer routine, making sure her landings were perfect and her tucks were sharp. She worked hard and didn't need a newbie who didn't even make the team for two years telling her what to do 

Rocky voice her opinion "Coach Shepherd, shouldn't the Captain be someone older?" The girls stopped cheering and looked at Rocky, either angry or in disbelief 

Daniel and Gianni shared a look before stepping back as Coach Shepherd put a hand on her hip "No. I think we need a Captain with talent and Emery has shown just how talented she is. If you don't like my decision than you can leave" 

"Yes!" Cora clapped. She didn't want anyone messing with her sister and she's glad that Coach would protect her younger members 

Rocky shook her head and stayed silent "That's what I thought" Coach Shepherd nodded and turned back to the rest of the team "Now, why don't we start practicing the new cheers and then we can go into the half time routines for the big games" 

The team nodded and quickly got into formation, Emery at the front "5, 6, 7, 8. Boom!" Emery started the cheer, the team joining in

Sitting on the bleachers, Allison turned away from watching Scott and looked over at her new friend and the cheer team watching them practice "Hey Lydia" 

Lydia hummed looking away from her boyfriend and towards her new friend "What's up?" Allison looked away from the cheer team "Do you know if cheer tryouts are still happening?" Lydia tilted her head thinking back to what Emery told her this morning "Tryouts ended two weeks ago" Allison defeated a little "But, their a girl down since she was kicked off the team for sneaking into the school, so they would be looking for a new girl" 

Allison perked up "Really?" She asked excitedly. Lydia nodded taking a quick look at the cheerleader, smiling when she saw her sister leading them. Looks like Emery did get the Captain spot 

Lydia smiled proudly. As did Noah, Talia, Laura, Cora, Derek and Peter. They all knew being a Cheerleader was Emery dream and they were all happy that she was able to achieve it and become Captain just in her sophomore year

"How about you join us." Lydia said turning back to Allison "We're heading out to eat after practice, you can ask Emery about it then" Allison nodded in agreement "I will let my dad know, so he doesn't freak out" 

Emery looked Allison over. The girl was fit and lean, she could make a good flyer. Isabella used to be a flyer so they needed a new one. Gianni, Daniel and Aiden were the back spotters. Ellie, Sidney, Chloe, Dani, Rocky, Abby were the bases 

"Can you fly?" Emery asked Allison, who jumped a little at her sudden voice "I think I can. I did 8 years of gymnastic" Emery hummed nodding a little "We can talk to coach if everything goes as it's showing us. If Isabella does get kicked off, we would need a flyer" Allison nodded in agreement 

  ŦŦŦŦ

A plate of food, was set in front of Emery "Thank you Stella" Emery smiled at the waiter, picking up her grilled chicken wrap "So if you want to join, I can put in a good word to Coach, but we're looking for a flyer" Emery told Allison 

The two of them, Lydia, Jackson, Belle, Danny, and Sidney were at the diner, the rest of the group either needed to go home or work so it was just them and Danny "What did you do before?" Emery asked taking a bite out of her wrap 

"8 year of gymnastic" Allison told her eating a French fry. Emery nodded turning to Belle and Sidney "What do you girls think?" The two brunettes turned to Allison, looking her over before nodding "She could make a good flyer, we'll go with you two tomorrow and talk to Coach" 

Allison smiled. She never thought about being a cheerleader, even after she quite gymnastic she didn't think about doing anything else but maybe joining the cheer squad could be good

She would make more friends, and Emery seems really nice, even if she did scare her a little with her magic in the beginning. Chris saw the smile on his daughter face and sighed knowing he wouldn't be able to say no to her when she asked if she could join 

Emery nodded and turned to Allison "We'll meet tomorrow at the front of the school, then we'll head to Coach office. She might want to see you action to be prepared to do some cheers and tumbles" She warned her

Allison was new to the school and new to cheer. If she wanted to be on the team, she would need to work hard and prove to all them she deserved a spot on the team. The three of them could vouch for her all they wanted but if she didn't put in the work, than they couldn't help her with that 

Allison promised herself, if she makes it onto the team this time around, she would work really hard. She hasn't been part of a team in years because of all the moving around she's done

  ŦŦŦŦ

Emery let her bag fall to the floor, toeing off her boots "How was school?" A voice asked from behind her

Emery didn't even blink when she saw Derek laying on her bed, reading one of her books

Stiles looked at his dad ready for him to scold Emery when nothing happened "Dad, aren't you going to say something?" He asked. Noah looked at his son confused "Emery has an older guy in her room. You're not mad?"

Noah shrugged "It's just Derek" Yes he knew what Derek and Peter are to his baby girl. And yes he understands the age gap between the three, but he also understands that Peter and Derek would never take advantage of Emery 

In the supernatural world, once someone reaches the age 17, they are seen as an adult, able to drink, go to gatherings and even... have sex, Noah grimaces at the thought, but he understands that some supernaturals live longer than others. Wolves and Sparks are one of them 

As long as Peter and Derek treat Emery like the princess she is, he has no problem with them going out 

"It was okay" Emery sighed climbing into her bed, flopping down  next to Derek "We got a new girl. Allison Argent" Derek paused, closing the book, giving Emery his full attention "What did you get off her?"

"Off me?" Allison asked confused. Derek turned to the teen "Emery has always been able to sense someone... aura" He looked at Emery and Noah, both nodding "Aura. Some feel safe, others give a bad feeling. It's just how the person is deep down" 

"You and your dad feel safe" Emery told Allison as she looked between the two Argents. The rest of the were's and Noah relaxed fully, now knowing they weren't in any danger being near the older Argent 

"Good to know" Chris said slowly trying to wrap his head around this 

Emery shifted so she was leaning on one elbow "She's good. I don't think she even knows about her heritage" Derek hummed running a hand through his hair "Well, still be careful around her but if you say she's good, then I'll trust you" 

Emery smiled leaning up to kiss his cheek before laying down on his chest "Now be quiet, I had a long day" She muttered closing her eyes. Derek chuckled, wrapping his arm around her waist "Yes dear" he muttered back   

  ŦŦŦŦ

 It was Friday morning and Emery was in the kitchen, dressed and ready for school. She was wearing a slightly see throw yellow button up, with a black bralette, a black denim skirt, black boots, her necklace and rings along with gold earrings 

"Ohh, is that the outfit we bought last week" Lydia asked. Emery narrowed her eyes before nodding "Yeah it is. It looks so cute" The girls nodded in agreement, that outfit was hot 

"Morning Sapphire" Noah greeted waking into the kitchen. Emery smiled over her shoulder "Morning dad" She handed him a plate with eggs and bacon "Everything okay?" she asked noticing the frown on her dad face 

"I just got off the phone. The fiber analysis came back from the lab in LA, they found wolf hair on the body" Emery frowned grabbing her plate and taking a seat at the table. It wasn't hunters that killed Laura, it was the alpha "I'm keeping everyone away from the Hale house so they don't disturb Laura grave" Noah told his daughter softly so only the two could hear 

Laura smiled at her dad. He was risking his career if someone finds out he knew where her body was, but he still did it because he cared and loved her

Emery smiled sadly at her dad, grabbing his hand in hers "Thank you daddy" Noah smiled back, leaning forward to kiss her head "No problem sweetie" The two smiled before they started eating 

  ŦŦŦŦ

Stiles ran up to Scott trying to stop him from going onto the field "Scott! Scott, wait up!" 

"Stiles, I'm playing first elimination man, can't it wait?" He asks trying to walk away but the jittering human grabs him "Just hold on okay? I overheard my dad and sister talking, the fiber analysis came back from the lab in LA, they found animal hairs on the body from the woods!" He exclaims 

Noah looked at his son "Stiles what I have I told you about eavesdropping on mine and your sister conversations?" 

"Not to do it" Stiles muttered. Noah pointed a finger at him "Correct. You better stop before I ground you" Stiles rolled his eyes but nodded. Noah shook his head knowing  Claudia had to much influence on the boy 

"Stiles I got to go" Scott states not caring for what his best friend is saying as he picks up his helmet and stick before jogging onto the field 

Cora scoffed "So much for best friend" she muttered 

"Wait, no! Scott! You're not gonna believe what the animal was!" Stiles cuts himself off looking sad as he whispered "It was a wolf" 

On the other side of the field the cheer team were practicing but what was different was that Allison was with them, next to Emery learning the steps. Her, Emery, Sidney and Belle went to Coach early that week 

Though Coach was a little wary to let Allison on the team, the teen surprised her with how good her tumbling  skills were, and the three promised to help Allison learn the cheers. Coach Shepherd decided to give them a chance and allowed Allison onto the team 

Emery turned to Allison and smiled "Welcome to the team" Allison smiled back with a little laugh "How do we even know I'll be on this time around?" She asked. Emery shrugged "Somethings will change, but since we were pulled here just a few hours before this is being shown, than Isabella probably already at school" 

"Holy shit" Aiden said catching the team attention "What is Aiden?" Dani asked, batting her eyelashes at him. Aiden just pointed at the field, making the team turn just in time to see Scott doing a hands-free round-off over three players who attempted to knock him down before throwing the ball between the goalies legs 

The wolves and Emery all looked annoyed. That confirms their thoughts, the alpha bit Scott "Whoever the alpha is, is so stupid" Emery told her family. Everyone nodded though Peter looked offended making Laura roll her eyes 

The team- expect Allison- looked at his in disbelief "What's wrong? That was a perfect throw" Allison asked wondering why they were looking at him like that. Ellie shook her head "What wrong? What's wrong is McCall doing all those tricks without needing his inhaler" 

"He has asthma?"

"Yep. Can't even do a lap around the track without needing to take a puff" Gianni told her "What the hell happened to him" Emery already knowing what is happening to Scott quickly came up with something "Probably steroids" She said

"Really!" Scott looked at her annoyed making her glare at him "Don't look annoyed at me. What the hell are you thinking?! You go from guy who sucks at lacrosse and can't run a lap without taking a pump of his inhaler to being the guy who can do a free-handed round-off without wasting a breath! You can expose all of us" 

Scott rolled his eyes "It's just a game" Peter looked at the newbie wolf "It won't be a game any longer if you end up shifting during a game and killing someone" He snapped. Melissa paled in worry while Scott just rolled his eyes "I think I can control it" 

Lydia scoffed "You" she pointed at him "You whine at everything, go to a teacher when things get hard and can't control your anger for your life. You likely die before you get your anger under control without some sort of help" Scott looked at her offended but Lydia just raised a brow knowing she's right 

Stiles wanted to defend his friend, but not against his crush. Cora saw this and rolled her eyes, no wonder Lydia wouldn't date him if he couldn't even stand up for his friend against a pretty girl. No woman wants to date someone without a backbone 

The team looked at her for a moment "Your probably right" Abby agreed along with the rest of the team. Emery shook her head "Let's get back to work" 

Allison looked back at Scott who looked at her and waved. She bit her lip before turning back to her team. Scott frowned at her for a moment until Coach yelling caught his attention 

Scott glared at Emery. Because of her, Allison probably lost interest in him. He pouted before perking up, this Allison knows why he's suddenly so good, so he could still have a chance with her

  ŦŦŦŦ

Emery walks in Lydia house dress in a black dress with a silver chain wrapped around her waist and another wrapped around her neck, with her usual rings and black knee high boots. As she walked through the party everyone stopped and stared at the girl causing her to smirk amused 

"What are you wearing!" Derek and Peter growled 

"Clothes" Emery told them

"You look Hot!" Allison and Lydia told her "Thank you girls" Emery smiled 

She reached the backyard where Lydia was waiting for her with a cup in hand "You look hot" She states handing her the cup "Right back at you" Emery said causing Lydia to smile "Where's Jack? Thought he'd be all over you" 

Lydia rolled her eyes and pointed to the other side of the party, Emery looked over and saw Jackson talking to the rest of the lacrosse players. She rolled her eyes turning back to her friend when she caught Allison coming outside with Abby 

"Allison! You made it" Emery called waving her over. Allison smiled at Abby before walking over to Emery and Lydia "Hey guys" Allison smiled "Hey, I thought you couldn't make it" Lydia said with a smirk

Allison laughed running a hand through her hair "Change of plans. I thought this would be fun" Lydia and Emery shared a look before looking back to the new cheerleader "Come on, let's get you a drink" Lydia and Emery linked their arms through Allison and dragged her towards the drink table 

Allison watched herself on the screen with a smile. She looks happy, at a party with her new friends, she was drinking and laughing and having fun. Something she never let herself do, until now 

Lydia looked at the back door just in time to see Scott walking outside, looking around like he was looking for someone "Ugh, who invited him?" She asked making Allison and Emery to turn and look at Scott as well 

"Not me" Emery scoffed taking a sip of her drink "Nu-uh" Allison shook her head. Sure she thought he was cute, but something about him seemed off about him

"There is nothing off about me" Scott said looking offended. The teens- expect Stiles- gave him a look as Peter, Derek, Talia and Noah just looked at the screen. Chris didn't say anything because he didn't know the kid and would rather his daughter stay away from Scott and Melissa didn't say anything because she's his mother 

Emery turned to the girls "Come on, let's dance!" She yelled over the music pulling them to the dance floor and away from Scott

It's a full moon tonight and the idiot decided to go to the party instead of locking himself away? Yeah bright idea. She wanted to keep her girls far away from his as possible 

"Good" Chris nodded along with Noah. Scott shouldn't be at a party but of course the kid would be an idiot and go anyways 

Emery looked towards the back and nodded

Derek who was in the shadows nodded back and moved to grab Scott. If he wouldn't stay away on a full moon, they would need to get him away

The screen turned black making the others look around before noticing it was done  for now "What happened?!" Lydia asked "Don't worry. Derek got Scott away before he could wolf out. Everyone was safe" Odessa told them making everyone sigh in relief 

Chapter Text

Emery stood in front of the squad "Alright everyone, today we're starting a new cheer for the game Saturday and some new stunts. Let's start with a few new cheers. I need everyone in four lines" 

Allison and Bell stood in the front with a spot between them for Emery. Abby, Daniel and Chloe stood in the second line. Ellie, Sidney and Aiden stood in the third line while Gianni, Rocky and Dani stood in the forth line

Emery nodded "Okay good, but step out, I want to see everyone" Some stepped closer so they could be seen in the gap while others stepped out to be further than before "Good now follow me. It's start with this" 

Emery took her spot in the middle of Allison and Bell "You don't wanna no problems" Emery waved her hands to the other side of the field were the other team cheerleaders would be "You just talk like you do" She clapped starting at talk then three more times "That's going to be Allison part" Emery said looking at Allison who was standing to her left "Try it" 

Allison nodded "You don't wanna no problems" Allison called out waving her hands "You just talk like you do" She clapped in time. Emery nodded "Good" Allison smiled back "Okay next part is all of us. It's goes like this" 

Emery spent the next three minutes helping the others with the cheer, making sure they were all timing it correctly 

Lydia smiled "Look at you, leading the team" She teased with a big smile. Emery laughed "And Allison, your good" Lydia complimented "Thanks" Allison muttered with a shy smile 

"Alright, let's try it full out" Emery told everyone, taking her spot in between Allison and Bell giving a nod to Allison  

The students who were watching them practice started cheering them on

Cora and Laura started cheering their sister on along with Lydia. Derek and Peter however were focused on how Emery moved. She wasn't showing much, as she was wearing leggings and a sport bra, but it still looked good on her 

Scott, who was at the front of the line, looked over at the cheers, his jaw clenched seeing Emery smiling and laughing with Allison 

Melissa raised a brow, looking at her son who wouldn't meet her eyes 

"McCall, what the hell are you waiting for? Let's go!" Coach yelled making him turn back, he huffed out a breath, running at Jackson who was easily tackled by the larger of the two, tossed flat on his back 

Emery, Lydia, Allison, Cora and Laura laughed at Scott getting thrown back like it was nothing. The boy in question glared at them before hitting Stiles in the arm when the boy snorted 

The squad turned to the field, Emery and Gianni started laughing, the others joining in when they heard what Coach was telling the teen "My-my grandmother can move faster than that- and she's dead! You think you can move faster than the lifeless corpse of my death grandmother?" Coach mocks 

The girls had to lean on each other as they started laughing even hard. The parents though shook their heads wondering if Coach was all there in the head or if he needed help 

Scott huffed "It's not that funny" He muttered crossing his arms. Stiles nodded in agreement though he silently wanted to laugh along with the girls 

Scott's anger and frustration had him doubling over which begins to worry both Stiles and Emery. The teen girl couldn't believe the idiot was playing when he knew he was a wolf 

The Hales shook their head. It was stupid and reckless for Scott to play the game

McCall clenches his jaw and responds to him in a tight voice "Yes, coach" 

Coach still trying to goad Scott into a more competitive mindset, continues to mock him "I can't hear you!" 

Fortunately for the new wolf, he wasn't looking coach in the eyes because his irises flash gold as Scott grits his teeth and repeats himself in an irritated tone of voice "Yes, coach" 

The Hales and Chris sat up quickly "You stupid boy! Do you have any idea of what your doing?" Laura looked angrily at the boy. Scott shrugged "I'm going to get on the team" 

"Your going to get everyone killed" Emery snapped glaring at the boy who shrunk down a little at the fierce look in her eyes 

Coach also irritated move so his mouth is just inches from Scott's right ear as he mutters his orders "Then do it again" 

"Don't do it again!" The Hales, Argents and Lydia yelled 

Scott clenches his jaw again as he sighs and runs back into the position while coach shouts mockingly towards the rest of the team "McCall's gonna do it again! McCall's gonna do it again!" 

Emery and the squad walked closer to the field, Emery watched Scott worriedly hoping the boy wouldn't shift. Scott runs full-speed at Jackson, gripping his lacrosse stick hard as he collides with Jackson, his right shoulder hitting Jackson right in the collar bone on the same side 

Jackson falls backwards landing flat on his back, Emery covered her mouth in shock as the bone snapped was heard all over the field "Jackson!" Lydia and Emery yelled from their places 

"Jackson!" Lydia and Emery echoed before glaring at Scott heatedly "This! This is why newly turned wolves do not play sports!" Emery yelled at the boy "Especially when you don't have any control" 

"It's not my fault" Scott tried to defend himself making everyone but Stiles, look at him in disbelief "It is completely your fault!" Lydia yelled shaking her head 

Emery and Lydia were the first people to reach Jackson, each falling on their knees next to the boy. The squad followed their Captain, as the players rush towards their fallen player 

"It's okay Jax. It's okay" Emery soothed running a hand through Jackson hair as Lydia holds his other hand. Coach was further away on the phone with who she hopes is the police to they can get an ambulance there quickly. Emery looked to the side Sapphire blue eyes connecting with forest green 

The two just stared at each other before Emery looked back down at her best friend "Your going to be okay" She whispered 

ŦŦŦŦ       

Noah walked into the house to banging in the kitchen "Sapphire?" He called out hurriedly taking off his jacket "In here" Emery called out though Noah could hear the anger in her voice 

Everyone winced, even Scott and Stiles knew that an angry Emery wasn't a good one. Trust them, they would know, with how many times they made Emery angry they couldn't prove it but those pranks pulled on them were because of her 

He walked into the kitchen, raising a brow when he saw the state of the kitchen. Flour and sauger were on the counters and floors, the counters were filled with cupcakes and there was icing dripping from the ceiling 

"How?" Was the first thing Noah asked pointing to the ceiling as a gulp of icing fell to the floor

"I um I" Noah tried to say something before sighing. Emery laughed a little sheepishly, playing with her hair "Sorry daddy" she apologized. Noah shook his head but shot his daughter a soft smile "It's okay Sapphire" 

Stiles looked between his dad and twin in disbelief. If he made that mess in the kitchen, he would have gotten a scolding and forced to clean it up, no matter if he apologized or not

Emery sighed setting the pipping bag down "I'm not even sure" she sighed rubbing her face "Okay, want to tell me what's got you angry baking?" Noah asked walking to the fridge to get a soda "How do you know I'm not stress?" Emery asked in return picking the pipping bag back up 

"Your making cupcakes. You make sweets when your angry. Muffins when your stressed. Trats when your sad and dinner when your happy" Noah listed off, grabbing one of the red velvet cupcakes

Laura and Cora laughed looking between their mother and sister "Emery got that from you mom" Cora said with a smirk. "No she didn't" Talia disagreed "Yes she/I did" The rest of the Hales agreed with Cora

Talia gasped looking at her daughter, feigning betrayal making her family, Allison and Lydia laugh. Chris and Melissa smiled a little at the family, while Scott rolled his eyes and Stiles glared at them     

"So, I'll ask again, what's got you angry?" 

Emery sighed as she started to clean up "Scott McCall is what got me angry" Noah sighed rubbing his face "God, what has that boy done now?" He asked tiredly. It was almost every single week, that boy has done something to his little girl 

He doesn't understand why he does anything when it's clear he doesn't like Emery. Which he doesn't understand either seeing as Emery never even spoke to the boy but he decided before they even met he didn't like her  

"That's not true" Stiles defended his best friend. Emery gave the boy a look as Noah rolled his eyes "Sure" He told his son sarcastically making Stiles huff 

Melissa looked at her son with narrow eyes, she knew Scott didn't get along with Emery, she's seen that with her own eyes, thinking it was just some childhood rivalry they had.

She never knew Scott didn't like Emery before even meeting the girl and that he has been bothering her so much if the way Noah reacted to the fact Emery was angry at him in the future was an indication    

Emery slammed the bowls into the sink "That dumb, stupid, newbie wolf decided it was a good idea to play lacrosse and he dislocated Jackson's shoulder!" Emery yelled flicking her wrist, sending the kitchen table into the wall   

Noah didn't even flinch, before he slowly looked at the table and wall and took another bite out of his cupcake 

The room was silent before Lydia, Allison, Laura and Cora started cracking up laughing "That's when you know Noah has gotten so used to this" Peter chuckled 

Noah nodded, he has gotten used to things being thrown about with magic. As long as Sapphire fixes them, he's fine with it.

Emery huffed looking at the wall, before waving her hand. The table flipped back upright, and the hole in the wall disappeared like it was never there. Noah nodded and turned back to his daughter grabbing another cupcake "Is Jackson going to be okay?" 

"The doctors hope so. He has another appointment in two days" Emery told him, grabbing some containers, filling them with cupcakes but leaving 12 out on a plate "You heading back soon?" Emery asked knowing her father always worked night shift on Wednesdays and usual just stopped by to check on her and Stiles 

Stiles frowned. He doesn't remember his dad ever working the night shift on Wednesdays. Though to be honest he doesn't pay that much attention to his father work schedule in the first place  

"Yeah but I'm going to take a shower before I leave" Noah told her taking a sip of his soda. Emery nodded "Here, for the others" She handed him two containers and put the other two in the fridge so she can take them to school tomorrow 

Wow, she really does bake a lot when she's angry 

"Thanks Sapphire" Noah kissed her head, making his way to the stairs "Make sure you go to bed at a decent time" He reminded her before going to take a shower "Will do!" Emery called out 

She quickly washed and put away the dishes, cleaned the counters and floors and put away the baking ingredients before making her way upstairs and falling into bed 

ŦŦŦŦ       

Emery was now seen sitting in math class, sketching in her notebook as Lydia and Scott who were choose to solve different problems started whispering to each other. Emery looked at them for a moment before waving her hand over her ear

"Why is there a rumor going around that you're not playing tomorrow?" Lydia asked in a snidely voice as she continued to solve her problem 

"Woah! You can listen to conversations?" Lydia asked in awe. Emery shrugged "I can if I want. It's just a spell so it wears off after an hour unless I cancel it" she explained to her sister  

Lydia nodded, it wasn't super hearing but it was still pretty cool

Scott sighs in frustration "Cause I'm sort of not" 

Emery rolled her eyes knowing he was going to play. She canceled the spell and went back to sketching, thinking of ways to sabotage Scott so he wouldn't play or at lease be taken out 

"Why would you do that!" Scott yelled angrily at Emery earning growls from her family

"Because I don't want to attend someone funeral just because you played!" Emery yelled back making Scott fall silent, his anger falling short before he scoffed and turned back to the screen not seeing the disgusted looks he was getting from everyone. Even his own mother 

ŦŦŦŦ 

After class, Lydia, Emery and Allison stood together talking with some other members of the cheer team and the lacrosse team "So how did you get on the team?" One of the guys asked Allison who smiled at Emery 

"Emery put in a good word for me" Allison told them. Emery rolled her eyes "Don't sell yourself short" She looked at the lacrosse players "She has 8 years of gymnastics and is a great tumbler" 

Bell, Abby and Daniel nodded in agreement 

"When we get a free moment, I have to see your tumbling skills" Emery told Allison who nodded. It would be good to get back into the swing of things if she wanted to make the team this time around 

The group continued talking when Emery caught sight of Scott looking at them, anger and jealousy clear on his face "Weirdo" She said catching everyone else attention "Who?" Lydia asked. Emery just nodded towards Scott who quickly looked away when they turned to him but they already caught him staring 

Melissa sighed resting her head in her hand. Why is her son acting like this? She raised him better than to be rude to people who aren't even bothering him and to not stare like a creep at a group of girls even if they are hanging out with guys 

The Lacrosse boys and Daniel glared at McCall before turning back to the girls "Come on, let us walk you guys to the gym. That's where practicing is right?" One of the guys asked. The girls nodded and they left 

Scott watch them go with a glare "Stupid Emery" he muttered walking away. He needed to get Allison away from her, so she'll be with him. Emery is doing something to keep them apart 

Allison looked at Scott weirded out and moved closer to her father who wrapped a protective arm around her glaring at the McCall boy "Oh my god Scott! You are grounded" Melissa yelled making Scott look at her in disbelief 

"What why?!" He yelled back making Melissa glare at him "Don't you raise your voice at me, young man!" Scott sat back in his seat cowering a little "And because of that! I don't care if it hasn't happened yet, I'll make sure it never does" 

Scott crossed his arms. It's so unfair, now he's grounded because of Emery 

ŦŦŦŦ       

It was the next morning, Saturday and Emery was sleeping when her bedroom door was thrown open and footsteps on the stairs woke her up. She turned to the stairs, seeing her dad stopping at the top dressed for work 

"Daddy?" Emery asked rubbing the sleep from her eyes "Sapphire get up and dressed quickly" Noah told her. Emery got out of bed and headed towards her closet "What's going on?" She asked taking out a pair of jeans and a large sweatshirt 

"Your idiot brother and Scott dug up Laura grave and called it in" Noah told her "What!" Emery yelled her eyes flashing gold making Noah wince.

"You did what!" Emery yelled turning to Stiles and Scott who cowered in their seats seeing Emery gold eyes on them "No harming" Odessa warned her decedent who huffed before smirking 

"Fine" Emery shrugged snapping her fingers. Suddenly two buckets of water appeared above Scott and Stiles before it poured on them making the two scream as it was ice cold "There not harmed" Emery said when she saw the look Odessa gave her  

She snapped her fingers changing from her PJ's to blue jeans, a baggy sweatshirt and her gray and white sneakers, leaving her hair down 

Lydia gasped looking at her best friend "You can change in just a snap of your fingers?!" She screeched making the wolves cover their ears. Emery laughed a little while nodding "Yeah, but I like getting ready so I only use it when I'm in a rush" she explained 

Lydia nodded, though she would have liked to know what before 

"Come on" Emery grabbed her phone and followed her dad down the stairs 

ŦŦŦŦ       

Noah pulls his car to a stop right in front of the Hale house. Emery, looked up at the house sighing when she sees the remains in daylight 

Noah reached over and grabbed her hand "You okay Sapphire?" 

Emery nodded looking at her dad "You okay, daddy? I know it's hard for you too," She asked. Noah looked at the house for a moment smiling sadly before looking at his daughter "With you, I am" 

Emery and Noah smiled at each other. Noah leaned forward, laying a kiss on Emery head "I'm always okay with you with me" He muttered. Emery smiled brightly moving to kiss his cheek 

Emery smiled before she looked at the police car in front of them, her smile dropping and eyes harden "Daddy." Noah followed his daughter line of sight sighing at what he saw.

Stiles was in the front of the police car, Derek was in and talking to him "That boy is going to be the death of me" He muttered getting out of the car. Emery following his lead. 

Noah shook his head wondering why God gave him a son like Stiles. If that boy just listens to what he has to say, he would be fine with him hanging with Scott and everything else he does.

If only he would listen and stay out of trouble. 

Scott eyes widen when he saw the two heading to the police car What are they doing here Scott thought trying to get Stiles attention by waving his arms but only managed to make himself look like a fool. 

"God" Melissa groaned holding her head. Scott was going to be the death of her, she knows it. 

Noah opened the door and pulled his son out by the ear "Ow, ow, ow" Stiles winced as he was dragged away, being forced to stand in front of his father and sister

Noah didn't even look away from his son, as he spoke to his daughter "Go tell Derek, we're going to handle his" 

"Okay Daddy," Emery gave Stiles a glare before walking back to the car Derek was in, nodding at Deputy Miller "You got three minutes then we have to leave"   

"Thanks Kara" Emery smiled sliding into the front seat

Stiles looked at the screen offended wondering why his father and the deputies allowed Emery to talk to Derek but he wasn't

"Hey Der" 

"Hey Em" Derek smiled seeing her "How long do I have to be here for?" He asked with a sigh. Emery smiled sadly, resting her hand against the cage "Hopefully not to long. Everyone in the station already knows you wouldn't do this and when they run the hairs on Laura's...body..." Emery swallowed hard

Derek wanted nothing more than to reassure her it was okay, he wanted to hold her hand, but his hands were currently cuffed behind his back and there was a cage separating them  

Emery blushed hearing his thoughts. Peter and Derek looked at her fondly, each finding her blush cute.

"Look, their going to find you innocent and when that happens we can plan a real funeral for Laura. Just us and Dad" Emery said after shaking her head

Derek nodded "Yeah, just us and dad" A knock on the window made them look at Kara who held up her watch. Emery nodded and turned back to Derek "Just hang in there. It'll be okay" Was the last thing she said before getting out. 

Emery closed the door and looked at Kara "Take care of him?" She asked with a small frown. Kara nodded dropping a kiss on Emery forehead "We will" She promised 

Noah and Talia smiled. Their little girl always had the best relationship with the deputies. Even when Noah got a couple new ones a few years after the fire, each of them took to Emery like a duck in water. 

There was just something about her that made people love and feel safe with her.

Emery nodded and walked back to her dad, who held out his arms for her. The blond, walked straight into him, wrapping her arms around his waist "He'll be out soon" Noah muttered kissing her head

Emery nodded, but she wished he wasn't in holding at all. Stupid Scott and Stiles, they should just stay out of other people business.

Stiles didn't say or do anything but Scott scoffed, crossing his arms "We're probably trying to help save people" He said lifting his chin in the air.

Allison rolled her eyes at the boy "You help people? I've only known you for less then 3 hours and I already know you don't help people unless you get something in return" 

Scott looked at her offended before looking around the room noticing that Emery, Lydia, Noah and even his own mother were nodding along with what she said. That wasn't true, he helps because he wants to! 

 ŦŦŦŦ

Emery stood on the side of the field with the rest of the cheer squad all dressed and ready. The girls were wearing a white, blue and red uniform. 

The tops had cutouts at their shoulders and collarbone, the sleeves started out red, then blue, then red again and on the front it had BHH on it. The skirt was also red and white 

(Imagen the organ as Red. I couldn't find this in red but I really like the style) 

The guys were wearing a mostly white uniform with red and blue with BHH in red on the front (Imagine the yellow as red again)

"OMG!" Lydia squealed making the wolves wince "The outfits are so good this year!" Emery had to nod in agreement. The outfits were so pretty, they looked amazing in them.

Chris smiled seeing his daughter, dressed in her uniform, smiling with her team. Maybe this would be good for them, maybe they could stop moving around all the time 

"Hey Sapphire" Noah walked up behind his daughter "Hey Daddy" Emery kissed his cheek, laughing a little when she got lipstick on his cheek 

Noah just smiled, leaving it, before it dropped when he saw who was on the field "You ready to stop this just in case?" He asked motioning with his head to Scott. Emery nodded "I got this" she stated. 

While looking through her grimoire, she found a spell to control someone heartbeat. If Scott gets to out of control, she'll force his heart to slow down, and if that doesn't work, then she'll have to knock him out. Another spell she found. 

"I would just knock him out" Lydia shrugged. Laura, Cora and Allison nodded in agreement. "Yeah" Emery sighed, wondering why her future self wouldn't just do that first. 

Scott looked at the girls offended, but looked even more offended when the grown ups, including his mother, also nodded in agreement. No, he shouldn't be knocked out. He could control himself! 

"Good luck" Noah kissed his daughter head before heading to the bleachers. Emery turned back to her team as the announcer started speaking "Thank you everyone for coming to the first lacrosse game of the season!" The crowd and cheerleads cheered loudly "Now before our team gets on the field let me introduce the Cyclone Cheerleaders!" 

The cheerleaders rushed onto the field. Noah and Chris who was sitting two rows apart, stood up cheering for their daughters "Go Allison! Go Emery!" Lydia yelled for her friends as the team got to the middle of the field.

"Woo! Go girls" Laura cheered on her sister and her sister friend. Allison and Emery smiled at each other, "Nice job" Emery held up her hand "You weren't so bad yourself" Allison joked high fiving her. The two laughed. 

Scott couldn't take his eyes off Allison, she looked hot in her cheer uniform "You got a little drool there" Stiles teased his best friend "Shut up" Scott grunted, but still wiped his chin making Stiles snicker. 

The crowd cheered for the girls as they finished "Go Cyclones!" Emery yelled doing a backflip before picking up her pom-pom's. Coach Shepherd ushered them off the field "Good job guys. You all killed it" Coach complimented them.

The team smiled, before looking at the field as the game started. "Let's go Jackson!" Emery cheered

ŦŦŦŦ

As the game went on, Emery, Noah and Stiles got more worried. It was obvious Scott wasn't doing so well, when the other players backed away from him. Emery looked back at her dad, who nodded. 

The Hales and Chris sighed frustrated "He's going to get killed" Cora deadpanned. "Cora" Talia scolded but the younger teen just shrugged "She's not lying" Emery muttered to Derek who huffed out a laugh.

The blond turned back to the field, eyes immediately landing on the wolf. Her eyes flash a bright, light gold. Since Emery never done this spell before, she couldn't do it as easily as she could do the light ball spell, so she had to whisper the spell under her breath 

"Why?" 

"Some spells are just simple. I'm not a witch, so I don't always have to say the spell for it to work. I just say the spell if I've not done it before or if the spell actually require the enchantment to be said out loud" Emery explained to Melissa. "There are things Sparks can do that witches can't. Like make portals, or keep a house from falling with just a thought" 

Allison looked at her new friend in disbelief "That's so cool" she breathed out. Emery shrugged with a smile "Yeah" She muttered. Derek and Peter smiled, looks like Emery never grew out of being shy when someone she cares for compliments her. 

"Corum spiritus prohibera" 

Scott eyes flashed a dark gold under his helmet. Emery kept her eyes trained on him "Slow" she whispered. Scott felt his breathing even out, his heart stopped beating like it was trying to beat out of his chest. 

Once Emery noticed Scott was calm once more, she released the spell, her eyes dimming back to Sapphire blue. She looked over her shoulder to her dad who nodded with a smile, "Good job" He mouthed. Emery smiled brightly and turned back to the field not seeing Stiles, looking between her and their dad with a confused frown.   

"Come on! Cheer number 10" Emery told her teammates. They all nodded and turned to the stands 

Emery stood in the front. Ellie and Belle were the next two behind her. Allison, Gianni and Rocky where the next line. Daniel, Abby, Aiden, and Dani were after them and Sidney and Chloe were the two in the back. 

"Ready. Okay!" Emery called "Look out. We're back. The Cyclones are here. The best that's right. The Cyclones are here. Step back and watch, your looking at the best. We're loud and proud. We're B.H.S. Beacon Hills the name, enough been said. The one, the only, big red!"   

They got up, waving their pom-poms at the crowd before turning back to the game in time to see McCall standing in front for the goal, holding the ball, just standing there "Shoot it!" The crowd and team yelled at McCall "Come on McCall! Shoot it!" Emery and Allison yelled.

They might not like the guy, but they wanted their team to win. Scott turned his head and looked at Allison before shooting the ball, the goalie jumped out of the way. 

The wolves, Emery and Noah noticed the way Scott focused on Allison and groaned "What's wrong?" Melissa asked worried something happened with her son. Noah sighed shaking his head "Look's like Scott made Allison his anchor" 

"His what?" Allison asked confused "An anchor. Something to keep you in control and not let the wolf take over" Peter explained to the teen. Scott smiled turning to Allison, who just backed away from him and into her dad arms "No thanks" She said turning away from the baby wolf.  

The ball made it into the net just before the game ended "Wooo!" Emery cheered hugging Allison "Go Beacon Hills!" The crowd cheered loudly. Emery watched as Scott looked at his hands and rush off the field. She quickly sent out a calming spell before she was swept in a hug by Jackson 

ŦŦŦŦ

After the game ended, Emery was walking towards her car with Allison when both their dads came up to them "Hey daddy" 

"Hey dad" 

Emery and Allison smiled at their fathers, each hugging their own. Allison turned to Emery, handing her cheer bag to her dad "Emery, Mr. Stilisnki this is my father, Chris Argent. Dad this is Emery Stilinski, she's the one who got me on the team" 

"Nice to meet you" Chris held out his hand "Nice to meet you too" Emery smiled shaking it, she immediately got a nice, warm feeling off him and knew he was one of the good Argents.

Chris smiled a little. It was nice to know that he was one of the good ones. While he liked to believe that himself, it's hard to believe sometimes when a lot of people call him a monster even though he never broke any laws. 

"Mr. Argent, Allison this is my dad Noah Stilisnki" 

Allison smiled at her friend father "Nice to meet you Mr. Stilinski" Noah smiled at the young teen "Please call me Noah. That goes for you too" He added looking at Chris. Chris smiled back "Then Chris for both of you" He said 

Emery and her dad shared a look, before Emery spoke "It was nice meeting you. Allison I'll see you on Monday" Allison nodded and the girls shared a quick hug before the Argent's left and Noah walked Emery to her car 

"Kara called me" Noah told her. Emery quickly looked at him "Good news" She asked hopefully. Noah smiled "Yeah, Derek was released during the game. He's at the house waiting for you"

The Hales sighed in relief. They knew Derek was innocent but it didn't sit well with them that he was in jail for something he didn't do. Emery and Noah were just glad the deputies knew Derek and knew he wouldn't do something like that, so they probably went easy on him. 

Emery squealed jumping into her dads arms. Noah laughed hugging his daughter back before pulling away "Alright, I have to go fill out some paper work because of this whole thing, but you go spend time with Derek" 

"I will, thanks dad." Emery kissed his cheek before getting into her car. Noah smiled watching her go before getting in his own car. Neither of them saw Stiles standing just two cars down at his Jeep, listening in with wide eyes 

Emery and Noah shot the boy annoyed looks as the screen turned black.   

Chapter Text

Emery rushed inside the house slamming the door shut behind her, up the stairs, down the hallway, pulled open the door, up the attic stairs and into the arms of the man she loves. 

Emery and Derek looked at each other, Emery with a blush, and Derek with a smile.

"Love huh?" Derek teases.

Emery hit his shoulder "Shut up," she snapped a little turning back to the screen. Derek laughed wrapping an arm around her shoulders. 

"You're okay!" Emery exclaimed wrapping her arms around his neck. 

Derek wrapped his arms around Emery waist, pulling her close to him "I'm okay," he agreed. 

The two stood in the middle of the girl's room, holding each other as they swayed side-to-side. 

Talia smiled seeing the two together. When she first found out Emery was the mate of her son and her brother, she feared for the worst. The age difference between Derek and Emery wasn't bad. 6 years wasn't bad.

But the age difference between Emery and Peter concerned the parents. A 12-year age difference. Noah and Talia were worried how the news would affect all three of them, but now. . . now they could see it didn't change anything. 

Emery loved Derek and Peter the same, no matter the age. 

Derek and Peter loved Emery too much to push her to do anything she doesn't want too. 

It was a match made in heaven. 

(Since I don't know how old Peter was in season one, he's 28. Derek's 21. Laura's 23 and Cora is 16.) 

ŦŦŦŦ  

Emery and Derek were sound asleep in the teens bed, Emery wrapped up on Derek's arm when the door slammed open, and two three sets of footsteps raced up the stairs. 

"See! I told you Scott!" Said Stiles. 

"Stiles! Scott! Get out of Sapphire room!" Yelled Noah. 

"Are you going to let this go!" Question Scott. 

Melissa sighed pinching the bridge of her nose "Are you kidding me, Scott?!" She turned to her son, who looked confused. "You do not go into someone else's house, barge into a room that isn't yours when it has nothing to do with you!" 

"But Mom-" 

"But nothing!" Melissa snapped "You are not allowed at the Stilinski house for a month" Melissa banned him. 

Scott and Stiles looked at her in disbelief "Mom that isn't fair" Scott whined. 

"Keep it up and it'll be two months" 

That shut Scott up. The boy huffed looking back at the screen. Melissa rubbed her head; she already felt a headache coming on. 

Emery and Derek bolted straight up, their eyes glowing in warning. Scott and Stiles stopped short seeing Emery bright melted gold eyes. 

"What?" Stiles whispered staring at his sister shocked. 

Emery looked around, noticing it was just her father, idiot brother and his idiot friend. They were no threat. Her eyes went back to Sapphire blue "Why the hell are you here?" She glared at the two teen boys. 

Derek stayed silent, leaning against the headboard while watching the sense unfold in front of him. 

"Mood" Lydia and Cora laughed a little at Derek.

Stile's mouth opened and closed a few times, no words leaving his mouth. Scott turned to Noah who was standing there, arms crossed "Are you not worried? A grown man is in your teenage daughter's bed!" 

Noah raised a brow. He knew who was in his daughter bed. He also knew nothing was going to happen until Sapphire was either 17 or married. He knew his daughter, and the man he thought of as a son, they wouldn't cross that line until both were ready and he also knew neither would be ready until Sapphire other mate and Derek's family soul bond is with them. 

"Mate?"

"Soul bond?" 

Everyone turned to Noah who sighed. "Yeah, mate and soul bond." 

"What's the difference?" Allison asked. 

"A mate is someone you have romantic feelings for. Someone you love forever the person you breathe for. Mates have a deep bond that connects them forever, through heart and mind until death. A soul bond is someone you love deeply but not romantically, a brother, a sister, an uncle, a niece, a nephew. You're connected through love, but a soul bond can develop into something deeper, but it would never cross the line between family love and romantic love." Talia explained to the young Argent.  

Emery tilted her head "So Derek and I have a Mate bond?" She asked. Her parents nodded. "But I also have another mate, that Derek shares a soul bond with?" She asked again. Noah and Talia nodded. 

It didn't take long for everyone to turn to Peter who looked at Emery with wide eyes. He knew for a long time that the love he feels for her was different to the love he feels for the rest of his family. Even the love he feels for Derek went to extra lengths than Talia, Cora, or Laura. 

He never expected to be her mate or have a family soul bond with his nephew. It was rare as a family soul bond only came when two members of the same family had the same mate. The bond helped them be comfortable around each other, feel more entuned with the other emotions, love each other more. 

Derek never thought that Emery could be his mate, or that his uncle was his soul bond. He knew he loved Emery; it was hard not too but he never thought he could actually go for her in fear of losing not only her but also Noah. Now he wouldn't lose neither, nor his uncle. 

"So, this is really gonna happen?" Emery muttered looking between her apparent two mates. Peter and Derek nodded, still shocked themselves. "Why don't we talk after this" Emery suggested. 

"Yeah" Peter breathed out. 

Derek nodded. 

"I know who's in her bed. And I know it's none of your business" Noah told them sternly. 

Stiles looked between his dad and sister, not understanding anything "Why were your eyes gold?" He blurted out. 

Emery rolled her eyes looking at her father "Dad" she said sleepily. 

"I got it" Noah told her, grabbing his son and Scott by the back of their necks "You two go back to sleep. Love you" 

"Love you too" Derek and Emery said before they laid back down. 

Noah pulled the boys down the stairs, closing the door gently. 

"Dad how can you be cool with that! If I had a girl over, you'd flip" Stiles tore himself away from his dad grip. Scott also got out of Noah grip, rubbing the back of his neck "You don't know who Derek really is. Emery's in danger" Stiles tried to get back upstairs but Noah pushed him away from the door. 

"Derek Hale. A werewolf" 

Scott and Stiles stopped dead in their tracks "Y-you know?" Scott asked backing away from him. 

Allison rolled her eyes "If he's okay with Derek sleeping in the same bed as his teen daughter, then he has to know" she told the boy slowly, like she was talking to a baby. 

Emery and Lydia giggled as Cora watched Allison with a small smile. Scott clenched his jaw not daring to say anything.

Noah gives the boy a look "Of course I know. Now, go home Scott and you" He turned to his son "Go to your room and leave your sister alone" he demanded. Scott and Stiles looked at each other before slowly moving, Stiles heading to his room and Scott heading to the front door "And If I see either of you tonight, I will be grounding you Stiles and telling Melissa!" Noah called out. 

After a moment, two doors were slammed making Noah sigh as he looked back at his daughter door. Thank God there was silencing charms on the inside of the doorframe. If either of the boys woke Emery up, it would have been hell. 

Emery family nodded. It wasn't smart to wake the teen up without a great reason. 

ŦŦŦŦ  

It was now Monday and Emery pulled into the school parking lot with music blasting. In the passenger seat sat Lydia, while in the back sat Abby, Allison, and Belle. The five were laughing as they got out of the car. 

"I did not!" Emery laughed flipping her hair over her shoulder. Today her hair was left out, with loose curls. Emery was seen dressed in a tan short sleeved crop top turtleneck, gray skirt paired with a black and gold belt, a black jacket, and black boots. She wore her usually necklaces and rings as well. 

"Come on Emery, you totally jumped!" Allison yelled with a laugh. Her hair was also out, but she was wearing a black flower dress and small heeled boots. 

"You did" The three others agreed. 

Emery rolled her eyes as she locked her car "Whatever." She huffed walking towards the school. 

"Come on E! We're joking" Lydia yelled rushing to catch up to her sister, throwing an arm around her shoulder, Allison doing the same thing from Emery other side "We still love you even if your scared of a little mouse" Lydia teased as Allison, Abby and Belle laugh. 

Noah, Talia and Chris smiled seeing their daughters laughing and carefree. 

Allison, Lydia and Emery smiled at each other, happy their getting along. Allison really needed new friends and Emery and Lydia needed someone to call a best friend. 

The group entered the school still laughing when Scott McCall came rushing around the corner, running into Emery and Lydia making them drop their books "Hey watch it!" Lydia snapped. 

Scott ignored them, staring at Allison relieved "You're okay" He tried to move closer to her, but Abby wrapped her arm around Allison shoulder, pulling her close to her and away from McCall.   

Emery and Lydia scoffed as the they stood back, books in hands "Get loss McCall." Emery shoved past him, her friends following after, each giving Scott looks. 

Scott glared at the screen. Why couldn't those girls leave his Allison alone?! If they would just back off, he could get Allison, and they would be the school IT couple. 

ŦŦŦŦ

Emery is sitting in front of Scott and Stiles in chemistry looking bored. She starts drawing, Scott and Stiles conversation loud and clear for her to hear. 

"Maybe it was my blood on the door," Scott whispered to the buzz cut boy. 

"Could have been animal blood" Stiles shrugs. 

Emery snorts quietly.  Apparently, there's been an attack on one of the school buses. The police are still looking for whoever was harmed during the attack. By the amount of blood that's all over the school bus, Emery's not sure whoever was attacked is going to make it. 

The room became tense. The alpha attacked someone. Who? Why? And why did Scott think it was him? Was that why he was so worried about Allison? So many questions flew through the group mind, but none were answered. 

Expect Peter and Laura who shared a look. 

Scott shoots him a look, clearly appalled by this theory "And did what?" 

The Stilinski boy just shrugs "Ate it" he states before glancing at his twin who was only a table in front of Scott "Why don't we ask someone else for help" he whispered motioning to Emery with his head. 

Emery shook her head "No. My job is to protect the town, not help little smartass over there." She got snorts of amusement for just about everyone in the room. Even Melissa had to cover it up with a cough. 

"Wouldn't I be a danger to the town?" Scott asked. 

Emery looked at him amused "You?" She looked him up and down "No. Now the alpha who's already killed someone? Yes. So, I need to focus on the alpha and try to figure out what the hell their doing in my town. Stiles can help you with everything else" Emery shrugged. 

Scott wasn't a problem. One flick of her wrist and she could knock him out, but the alpha would be harder to deal with, especially since they know nothing about it. 

Scott looked at Emery who was gently shading in her sketch and shook his head "Raw?" Scott asked focusing back on the conversation at hand. 

Stiles scoffed "No, you stopped to bake it in your little werewolf oven" He stated sarcasm dripping from his tone, "You're the one you can't remember anything" Stiles threw his hands up. 

"Okay that was a little funny" Cora muttered. 

Emery shook her head when she noticed Mr. Harris had picked up on the boy's conversation and has turned to watch them talk with a stern look on his face and his hands on his hips, until he finally speaks interrupting them. "Mr. Stilinski, if that's your idea of a hushed whisper, you might want to pull the headphones out once in a while." Stiles just huffs "I think you and Mr. McCall would benefit from a little distance, yes?"

"Yes!" Everyone except the boys in question agreed. 

Stiles scoffs out "No!" He exclaims looking like a lost puppy. 

Noah rolled his eyes. When will his son learn nothing good comes from hanging out with Scott? It's like without him around, Stiles can't do anything. 

Emery rolled her eyes. God when will Stiles realize Scott is just using him to fill the void that left by loneness. It's like without Scott around, Stiles can't do anything. 

"That's not true!" Stiles defends himself and his best friend. 

"Sure, it's not" Emery smiles sarcastically at her brother. 

Harris stares at Scott before he gestures towards the front of the room, implying that he wants him to move there before doing the same to Stiles but towards the back of the classroom.   

The two boys sigh in annoyance before reluctantly picking up their stuff and moving "Let me know if the separation anxiety gets too much" he states. 

Not even a second later Harley suddenly stands up "Hey! I think they found something!" she exclaims rushing over to the window. 

The rest of the class jumps up and rush over to the window, Emery included wanting to see how bad the damage is and if the person they found is still alive. Outside in the parking lot an ambulance is parked at a corner with their lights and sirens on, and two paramedics are quickly wheeling a stretcher with a middle-aged adult man on it towards the open doors. 

Everyone's eyes widened seeing the body "Oh damn" Laura muttered, "What did he do?" she whispered to her uncle. 

"The man who claimed the fire was because of a wiring issue when he knew it wasn't" Peter whispered back. 

Laura hummed and glared at the man, hoping he's dead. 

Scott looked horrified at the dead looking man "That's not a rabbit" Stiles muttered from next to Scott.  

The paramedics are about to lift the stretcher into the back of the ambulance when suddenly, Garrison jumps into a seat position, grabs the shoulders on each side of him and begins screaming in fear. 

Everyone jumped at the sudden screams. 

"Damn." Emery shook her head. 

Scott nodded in agreement "I know. Why would the alpha even think-" 

"If the alpha is gonna kill someone, make sure they're dead before the police find the body." Emery finished shaking her head. 

Her family, Lydia and Chris looked at her with amusement, as Scott and Stiles looked at her in disbelief. Though Peter looked offended making Laura giggle. 

The class jumps back visibly startled apart from Emery who stared at the man with narrowed eyes, an irritated expression on her face. 

Scott ends up in the back of the group panicking with Stiles trying to calm him down. "Okay, this is good. This is good! He got up, he's not dead. Dead guys can't do that." Stiles tried to reassure his best friend. 

Scott gives Stiles an irritated look "Stiles, I did that!" He snapped. 

Noah and Emery sighed seeing Stiles didn't say or do anything. This was the problem! Stiles just lets Scott talk to him like that and says nothing. Can't Stile see Scott isn't actually his friend. 

ŦŦŦŦ

In the cafeteria Emery was sitting at her regular table pulling out her home cooked meal waiting for her friends when Stiles and Scott sit down with her, making her look at them confused. 

Lydia and Emery shared confused look. Why in the hell are dumb and dumber sitting with them? The two are nowhere close to being their friends. 

"But dreams aren't memories" Stiles whispers 

"Then it wasn't a dream" The McCall boy states, "Something happened last night, and I can't remember what." 

"What makes you so sure that Derek even has all the answers? Emery could help us" Stiles motioned to his sister who was now glaring at them. 

"Excuse me? You do not just tell me that I'll help someone" Emery snapped at Stiles. "Why not?! Scott needs your help" Stiles threw his hands in the air. He got disbelieving looks from Emery, his father and Lydia. 

"Maybe because all you and Scott have done since you met each other was try to get under Emery skin with nasty comments. She doesn't have to help someone who's been cruel to her since they met for no reason." Lydia snapped at the boy. 

Stiles sat back, looking between his crush and sister in disbelief. He turned to his dad, but Noah only shook his head turning back to the screen. He wasn't going to force Sapphire to help Scott when that boy has tried his hardest to hurt his daughter. 

Emery eyes flared gold for a moment before she took a deep breath "No I won't" She snapped. Scott and Stiles turned to her, flinching a little at the glare the blonde was throwing their way, before Emery could say anything, Lydia appeared at the head of the table, next to Emery 

"Why are you two even sitting here? You know this is our table" Lydia said looking at Scott and Stiles. 

"Uh... We need to talk to Emery" Scott smiled as Danny, Jackson, Allison, Gianni, Abby, Belle, and Aiden stood around staring at the two boys each holding a tray. 

"Yeah." Stiles nodded in agreement, shooting his sister a look to say something but Emery crossed her arms. 

"Well, I don't want to talk to you, so leave" Emery said calmly sitting back in her seat knowing if the two didn't leave, the guys will force them too. 

And by the way, Danny, Jackson, Gianni and Aiden stepped closer to the table, Scott and Stiles knew it too. The boys quickly grabbed their trays and got up not looking at anyone as they walked away. 

Lydia and Emery smirked at each other. The boys will always come to their recuse, even if they didn't need it most of the time. 

Once the two boys were gone, everyone took their seats. Allison sat next to Emery and Abby on Emery other side "Losers" Abby muttered making those around her laugh. 

The boys should know, it doesn't matter how good Scott is at lacrosse now, he won't be popular because they know he's on something. 

Scott clenched his jaw. He wasn't on anything! He was just better than them now. 

"What was that about?" Allison asked. 

Emery rolled her eyes "Who knows. Those two have always been weird" The others nodded in agreement, as they started eating.

"What did you make for you and your dad today?" Danny questioned. 

Emery smiled opening the food container "Rice with steak and steamed carrots and broccoli. I got an Arizona iced tea, and he got a Zero-Water since he wanted steak" 

 "Oh, that looks good" Cora groaned wanting to eat it. 

"Wait, you make lunch for yourself and dad?" Stiles asked with a frown. Emery nodded "Why don't you make me lunch?" 

"Because your never around when I make it. You always head over to Scott house as soon as you wake up." Emery shrugged. Why would she cook for someone who was never home when she makes and packs the food up. 

Jackson nodded impressed "Nice" 

Emery smiled happily as she started eating "I found out who that guy was from the accident. Garrison Myers" Emery told them. 

Gianni tilted his head "Wasn't he like an arson investigator?" He asked eating a fry. Emery nodded "I heard they think it was a mountain lion who attacked the guy" The group shivered. 

Lydia put her water down "Changing the topic. We're still on for bowling tomorrow?" Lydia looked around the table. The 8 of them nodded. 

"I'll be picking up Allison and Abby" Emery informed her sister. 

"I'm taking Belle and Gianni" Aiden told the strawberry blond. 

"Good" Lydia smiled knowing Jackson was going to pick her up. 

The group continued with their lunch, laughing and eating, none of them noticing the way Scott kept looking at their table. He heard their plans for tomorrow and tried to figure out a way to get invited so he could hang out with Allison. 

"No" Allison deadpanned. 

Chris glared at the young wolf. He won't let the boy get anywhere near his daughter. Melissa herself glared at Scott, why is so caught up with Allison. It's clear to everyone she doesn't like him. 

ŦŦŦŦ   

Derek and Emery were at the Hale house, going through the house trying to see if they could find anything the fire didn't touch. Emery always meant to do this, but she couldn't do it alone. 

Noah frowned a little. He wished he was able to be around more for his kids, but he needs to work. Yes, he has the life insurance from the Talia, but that was put into a trust for their kids. One he has been adding to every chance he got. 

Emery stood in the middle of a room, looking around "You, okay?" Derek asked from behind her. Emery nodded as she moved to the bed that wasn't as burnt as the rest of the room. 

"Just weird you know. This was my childhood bedroom and..." 

"You can't remember what it looks like." Derek finished when Emery trailed off. 

Noah smiled softly "It was a light purple room" He started grabbing everyone attention, but his eyes were distance, like he was remembering something, "You also has a white carpet. The wall by your window had fairy lights. A princess vanity set on the other side of your room, right across from the window so its naturel light was let in. Your walls were filled with paintings you did of the family." 

Noah blinked coming back to the present. He turned to his Sapphire "You begged for days to be able to get that vanity" 

Emery smiled softly "I remember. It took you 4 days to cave" The two laughed, softly. They needed to remember the good times they had in that house and with the family. Not the bad times. 

Emery nodded, sighing softly "I really miss this place" Emery voice was soft. Derek sighed, walking over and pulling her into a tight hug "I really miss them" Emery whispers. 

"I miss them too" Derek admitted hiding his face in her hair. 

The Hales blinked back tears. They missed each other as well. Cora thought everyone was dead. Laura and Derek had to leave to protect their sister and father, only seeing them every few days out of the year. Peter was in a coma, only Noah and Emery for company. Talia. . . Talia watches them all but misses them even more. 

The two then hear footsteps approaching and pulled away cleaning their faces, they made their way to the window to see Scott walking out of the woods that border the Hale property. 

The newly turned wolf pauses shifting nervously back and forth as the two stare at him, out of sight. After a moment Scott realizes that they weren't coming out, he spoke "I know you can hear me" Emery raised a brow at him, before waving her hand over her ear activating her hearing. 

Emery rolled her eyes, of course she couldn't hear Scott without the spell when he was talking like that. 

"I need your help" He looked at the house with a pleading expression. 

The two shared looked of annoyance as it started raining. Emery nodded and Derek left, she stayed in the room looking down at Scott. From her spot she could see them on the porch. 

Derek stared at Scott blankly "Okay, I know I was part of you getting arrested. . . and that we basically announced you being here to the hunters. . . I also don't know what happened to your sister. . ." 

Lydia shook her head "And he still expects them to help" She muttered annoyed to Cora, who nodded in agreement. 

"Right? I mean if they did help at this point it had to be more for their benefit than McCall's" The two giggled. Emery looked at them with a small smile, she's glad they're getting along. 

Emery clenches her jaw at the mention of Laura. "But I think I did something last night. I had a dream about..." he hesitates "Someone..." Emery raised a brow, why does she have a feeling that dream was about Allison. 

Allison scrunched her nose in disgust. 

"But someone else got hurt. And it turns out that part of the dream might have actually happened..." he trails off. 

Derek expression doesn't change "You think you attacked the driver?" Derek finally asks. 

Scott's tone and expression becomes incredulous assuming Emery would have told him by now "Did you see what I did last night?" 

"No."

"Can you at least tell me the truth? Am I gonna hurt someone?" The McCall boy then asks. 

"Yes" Derek states bluntly as Emery nodded.  

"Derek. Sapphire." Talia scolds the two. 

"Could I kill someone?" He continues. 

"Yes" 

"Am I gonna kill someone?" Scott then asks. 

"Probably" 

Talia sighs shaking her head not knowing what to say. 

Scott looks like he's going to cry as he turns and walks toward the end of the porch keeping his back towards the older wolf. Derek looked up at Emery who nodded her head, "Look I can show you how to remember" Derek tells Scott turning back to face him "I can show you how to control the shift even on a full moon" 

Without even looking at him, Scott asks "What do you want?" 

"Knew it" Cora smiled. She knew her siblings. If you weren't family or a really close friend, there's always a price to pay for their help. That's how it is in the Hale family. 

"You'll find out" Derek crosses his arms "But for now I'm going to give you what you want" Scott doesn't turn to face him but looks at him out of the corner of his eye "Go back to the bus. Go inside. See it. Feel it. Let your senses, your sight, smell, touch - let it remember for you." 

Scott looks confused "That's it? Just go back?"

"Do you want to know what happened?" Derek tilted his head. 

The newbie wolf finally turns to him a vulnerable expression "I just want to know if I hurt him." 

Emery shook her head "Lie" She whispered low enough that only a wolf with training could hear her. 

"I'm not lying!" Scott shouted glaring at Emery only to flinch back when he got glares from everyone but Stiles in return. 

Derek nodded slight to Emery before giving Scott a pointed look "No you don't. You want to know if you hurt her" Derek stated watching as Scott looks down at the floor knowing he was right. 

"You were saying?" Laura asked with a raised brow. Scott sank down in his seat avoiding looking at anyone. 

ŦŦŦŦ  

At the Argent house Allison was looking through her closet trying to find an outfit to wear. She picks out a business-casual-sequence brown and black tie-dyed top and turns to show Abby and Emery who were sitting on her bed. Both screw their faces up at the girl's fashion sense. 

Lydia and Emery looked at the shirt horrified "What is that?" They asked in unison. 

Allison shrugged "My dad picked it out" 

Both girls turned to Chris "What? I think it looks great" Chris defends himself. 

"It doesn't" Emery, Talia, Lydia, Cora, Melissa, and Laura stated. Chris looked at his daughter who nodded in agreement with the girls. It wasn't her style. 

"Pass" Both exclaim. 

Allison turns back to her cloths and starts rifling through her hung-up clothing before picking out a hippie-style empire-waist shirtdress that is gold, red, teal, green, and blue in a paisley pattern. 

"Did your dad pick that out?" Abby blurted out 

Allison looked at the shirt then back at her friends "Yeah" She laughed a little. 

The women in the room sighed shaking their heads. Chris looked at them offended. There is nothing wrong with the clothes he picks out! 

Abby giggled turning to Emery "Please tell me you brought it" Emery nodded grabbing a small black duffle bag from the floor. 

"Brought what?" Allison asked confused hanging the shirt back up. 

"Oh, it's the bag!" Lydia squealed before turning to Allison "You're going to love the bag; it has the greatest outfits ever" Emery giggled at how hyper her sister is while Allison smiles at Lydia.

Emery smiled "Every time we hang out in a group, I pack three outfits" Emery stood up, setting the bag on the bed "With three different shoes. One pair of heeled boots. One pair of heels. And one pair of sneakers." Emery opened the bag pulling out the first outfit

A black skirt with a dark blue sweater. Emery held it against Allison "No" She shook her head throwing the clothes to Abby who folded them neatly. Emery then pulled out a white collared sleeveless dress with flowers over it, a black leather jacket and a gold belt. Emery held it up against Allison "Yes" 

Abby stood behind Emery and nodded "So cute. Did you pack those knee-high boots?" 

Emery looked at her over her shoulder "Yeah, the blacks one." Abby looked at the bottom of the bag and pulled out the black boots, handing them to Allison "Go change" Emery told Allison shoving the dress, jacket and belt into her hands. 

Allison laughed moving to her bathroom. Right when the bathroom door closed, the bedroom door opened. Chris Argent walks in the room trying to zip up his jacket. 

Abby and Emery looked at each other before looking back at their friend's dad "Mr. Argent. Hello" Abby said. 

Allison sighed "Dad. . . Knock before entering" Allison told her dad who looked at her and Emery sheepishly. 

Chris looked up, pausing when he saw the two girls in her daughter room "Hi, Emery and..." Chris looked at Abby. 

"Abby" 

"Abby. Sorry" He motioned to the door. The two smiled a little "Uh, where's Allison?" He asked. The two girls pointed to the bathroom "Right. So where are you girls going?" Chris asked. 

"Bowling. A group of us" Emery told him. 

Chris nodded. The three stood in silence.

"Awkward" Cora muttered. 

The door to the bathroom opened and Allison stepped out "How do I look?" She asked making the three turn to her. 

"Wow" Scott muttered. 

"Oh, you look so good!" Lydia cheered. 

Chris smiled at his daughter "You look beautiful honey" He muttered kissing the side of Allison head. 

Emery and Abby cheered "Oh you look so good!" Abby smiled as Emery looked at her creation with a smile. 

Chris stared at his daughter with wide eyes

"Dad?" Allison asked.   

Chris shook his head, smiling at his daughter "You look beautiful" Allison smiled brightly. Abby turned to Emery who was packing the bag again. 

"Em, you did amazing on the dress" 

Emery smiled "Thanks, I finished it last week" She zipped up the bag. Allison and Chris turned to her 

"Wait you made this?" Allison asked. 

"The dress" 

Allison turned to Emery "It's so pretty. You did great" 

Father and Daughter looked at the dress then at Emery in amazement. "You are really talented" Chris commented. 

The blonde smiled tucking back a piece of hair "Thanks" Emery grabbed the duffle bag and her purse. 

Chris looked at the two girls in his daughter bathroom, finally taking note of what they were wearing "You two look beautiful as well." He smiled softly at the girls. 

"Thanks Mr. Argent/Chris" Abby and Emery smiled.

Emery was wearing blue denim shorts, a tan top with black swirls around the top, she paired it with a light cream shrug (That's what a sweater that only covers the arms is called) white sneakers and a silver chain belt. 

"Cute" Allison, Lydia, Cora and Laura said. 

Abby was wearing white jeans, with a white shirt, pair with a leather jacket, black boots and a black belt. 

"Awe you and Abby are matching!" Emery squealed making Allison blush. Lydia and Emery shared a look. Operation gets Allison and Abby together is a go! 

Abby looked at Allison "Ready?" She asked softly. Allison smiled nodded grabbing her purse. Abby looked at Chris "We'll get her back before curfew". 

Chris nodded, he wanted to keep his daughter home but seeing how happy and excited she is to be going out with a group of friends, friends that actually seem like decent people, he couldn't stop her. 

Allison smiled kissing his cheek "Thanks dad".

ŦŦŦŦ

A light blue ball rolled down the lane before getting a strike. Emery threw her hands up "Yes! Beat that Jackson" Emery taunted walking back to her seat as Jackson stood up, grabbing his dark blue ball. 

"Oh, I will short stack" Jackson teased bumping his hip with hers. 

The group laughed at the banter between the two. If anyone who didn't know Jackson and Emery, you would think they were brother and sister by blood with how alike they look. 

Blond hair. Blue eyes. Tall. 

Emery, Lydia and Noah nodded. They had lost count how many times Emery and Jackson were asked if they were separated at birth. 

"That's true. You two could pass as twins." Laura muttered loud enough for those around her to hear. 

Stiles clenched his jaw. Emery was his sister! His! Not Jackson's. 

Jackson takes his stance, swinging his arm back before letting it go. The group watched as all but two pins fell. 

"Ha!" Emery yelled clapping. Jackson groaned turning to her with a playful glare "To bad Jackson" she teased laughing. 

Allison leaned over to Abby, who was sitting next to her, arm thrown around Allison shoulder. 

Allison blushes as Emery and Lydia teases her. 

"Are they always like this?" She whispered nodding to Emery who was using Jackson as a shield from Jackson who was trying to get to the teen. 

"Always" Abby smiled at the sight, as the others laughed, Lydia even filming the three "Jackson and Emery are like brother and sister. Add Danny into the mix and you got Choas." 

Noah laughed "That's true. Those three aren't allowed at the house alone anymore". 

Lydia laughed loudly remembering what they did while Emery blushed "Once again it was an accident!" she huffed. 

"Sapphire you three managed to set almost set the kitchen on fire, and somehow got a deer in the backyard. How is that an accident?" Noah asked amused. 

Talia, Laura and Cora laughed along with Lydia. Derek and Peter smiled down at the girl wondering how something like that happens but knowing it was also just how it goes when Emery is involved. 

Allison smiled "I think I'm going to like it here" 

Abby turned her head to stare down at her "Yeah?" she whispered. 

Allison looked up, a smile on her lips, staring into Abby dark green eyes "Yeah" 

The two girls didn't noticed Gianni taking a picture of them with a smile while Lydia and Emery made kissy faces at them. 

Noah, Chris and Talia smiled. These were the moments they loved for their kids. To be able to go out and be teens with no worry. They could tell it wasn't going to stay that way, but they hope for everything in them, Lydia, Emery, and Allison don't lose those friends.

Chapter Text

An SUV is seen driving down a more industrial area of town seemingly on the outskirts of Beacon Hills, its being driven by Kate Argent, who was listening to the radio.

Chris frowned seeing his sister. The wolves growled at the woman.

"She knows, doesn't she?" Allison asked her dad. "Kate's a hunter"

Chris sighed "Yeah, she is."

Allison looked back at the screen, not knowing how to feel. Even the aunt who she was always close with is a hunter.

"In other news, local authorities remain perplexed by the animal attacks plaguing Beacon Hills..." the radio announcer says.

Kate scoffs, and chuckles amused by the town's ignorance before she switches the station to music. As she drives, she looks into the rear-view mirror, touching up her lip gloss, only half paying attention to the road.

Behind her car, a dark figure leaps from just outside the frame to the other side of the frame and growls under its breath, making it clear it's the alpha.

The Hales hoped the alpha kills Kate but knowing that Bitch, she's going to get away.

Oblivious, Kate continues down the road in her SUV, patting her fingers against the steering wheel in time with the music. She then starts bobbing her head to the music as well, turning to look to the right and missing the sight of the werewolf with glowing red eyes running alongside her on the right, which can be seen through the driver's window.

However when Kate's line of sight returns to the road, the alpha melts back into the shadows so it cannot be seen.

"Come on! Get to the killing already" Cora groaned making her siblings laugh.

Allison wants to be offended but if the wolves and Emery are acting like this, means her aunt did something to them. The question is what.

Despite missing the sight of the werewolf, it's clear that her senses are on high alert and she visually scams the streets, her head swiveling back and forth to get a wider look at her surroundings.

After a moment she turns around to look behind her, but sees no cars or other people in her vicinity. She turns the other way one last time to be certain, returning to face forward just in time to see she's about to run a stop sign.

A truck turning onto the street squeals its tires as the driver hits the brakes and honks loudly, and Kate comes screeching to a halt as well.

"Damn it" Emery groaned wishing Kate had gotten hit by that car.

Derek and Peter smiled, seeing Emery pout. She's so cute.

Kate takes a deep breath, closing her eyes as she recovers from the shock before finally opening her eyes "Nice driving Kate. Nice." She muttered thumping her head against the headrest.

She takes one last breath, ready to start driving again when something lands on the roof of her SUV and looks up at the ceiling towards the source of the noise.

Having just put the car in park, she's about to reach back with her right hand when suddenly, the alpha breaks the glass in the driver's door window and grabs her by the left arm, attempting to yank her outside. Kate immediately fights back and starts trying to break free of its grip.

"Yes!" Cora, Emery, Lydia and Laura cheered. "Now kill her!" Cora yelled.

"No! No! No!" She pulls away from the door so she can once again reach into the backseat and grab her shotgun, she cocks with one hand before shooting up through the ceiling of the car, seemingly grazing the alpha, whose body was braced on it while hanging over to tank her out of the car.

This causes the werewolf to let go, allowing her to release her seatbelt and somersault out of the car from the passenger door, landing in a roll on the ground outside of it. Kneeling outside of the SUV she aims her gun at the roof of the car, but upon seeing that the werewolf has since moved. She looks around trying to find out where it's lurking. She stands to her feet.

"Come on!" Kate yelled taunting the alpha. When the alpha doesn't react she fires off a warning shot before repeating herself in a louder yell. "Come on!"

"She is right there! Kill her!"

Chris pressed his lips trying not to laugh. It should concern him how these kids want his sister dead, but he also find their comments hilarious.

Kate cocks the gun again, allowing the empty shell to fall to the ground with a clinking noise as her eyes dark around trying to find where the alpha is hiding. She smiles a little, making it clear that she's getting a lot of enjoyment out of the hunt and the chase.

Allison looked at her aunt disgusted. How could she like this? Like killing people. Sure there are probably some wolves who kill for fun that need to be put down, but Kate is there where her friend is supernatural. She doesn't want Emery getting hurt.

Guessing the immediate danger has passed for now, she drops her shotgun so that it's only in one arm as she makes her way to to trunk of her SUV. She opens the gate to reveal a professional-looking sniper rifle in a case in the back, which she grabs in one hand while using the other to open a hidden door on the floor of the trunk, revealing a compartment which holds several handguns, grenades, flashlights, and a box full of ammunition.

Emery tilted her head, staring at the compartment filled with weapons. Carrying all that over state lines is illegal unless you're a licensed weapon dealer but she knows Kate isn't.

If she could find out where Kate is when she gets out, maybe she can call in a tip about a woman carrying at least a grand worth of weapons illegally.

She opens the box of ammo with her left hand which contains several closed black plastic boxes on the left, and a row of loose rifle bullets on the right, separated by size. She grabs a wooden box from the middle compartment which has a purple flower stamped into it, opening it to reveal a row of ten brass bullets.

Chris, and the Hales sat up seeing the flower.

"What is it?" Lydia asked seeing the looks on their faces.

"That flower, it's wolfsbane" Derek told the strawberry blonde.

Derek is seen running until he stumbles upon a puddle of blood on the ground, he crouches down, rubbing the red liquid between his index and middle finger as he tries to discern whom it belongs to.

"Emery, I got blood." Derek said standing up, in his ear is a comm.

Emery is sitting on her bed, her laptop in her lap. Different camera views of Beacon Hills is shown on her laptop.

"Sapphire!" Noah exclaimed looking at his daughter "Did you hack into the town camera again?"

Emery smiled innocently "Maybe" she dragged up playing with her fingers "But I'm doing something good! I'm trying to find the alpha" she defended herself.

Noah sighed shaking his head, but the fond smile on his face made Emery smile. Stiles looked at them jealous, how could his dad be okay with that.

If it was him, he would get grounded for life.

What Stiles seems to not understand was that Emery did it to help Derek find the alpha. Stiles would do it just for fun.

"He's above you" Emery told him.

Derek looked up, and saw the alpha staring down at him before it took off running "Head to the next building. There's a ladder you can use." Emery told him

Back on the street, Kate has just closed the gate to the trunk of her SUV and walks back around the cat with the sniper rifle in hand, closing the passenger door as she walks past.

Derek continues to run down the length of warehouse, leaping and bundling over boxes and generators before making it to some scaffolding.

As he started climbing, Emery voice filled his ear again "Derek be warned. Kate Argent is near you, she has a rifle."

The Hales became worried. Derek was too close to Kate for their liking. Derek shuddered, even the thought of being close to that woman freaks her out.

Derek shuddered "I got it" he muttered keeping his focus on the alpha. Her leap onto the corner of the roof of the next building handing in a crouch, visually tracking the alpha leaping across a roof several buildings away.

He gets to his feet and sets off into a run to get a head start to leap across a gap between two building when Kate who was visually tracking him through her rifle sights, takes aim and fires a shot.

"Derek!" The Hales, Lydia and Allison yelled seeing the man drop. Emery grabs Derek hand, Peter rested his hand on Derek shoulder, the two needed to make sure Derek was okay.

Derek is hit mid-jump, the shock of getting shot causes them to lose the momentum he needs to make it across the next.

"Derek!" Emery yelled watching on the camera as he falls, rolling down the side of the roof and landing hard on the cement ground between the buildings.

Emery whimpered a little, holding Derek hand tighter, making him grunt a little. For someone who didn't have super strength she was sure as hell strong.

Though Derek didn't say anything, he could feel how scared both Emery and Peter were for him, though he can also feel how guilty Peter feels.

Why? He doesn't know.

Derek groans in pain, trying to recover from the fall and gunshot wound.

Emery stared at the screen in horror "Derek do not try and get up. I'm sending Dad to you right now." Emery told him, picking up her phone.

Derek only groans more. He didn't notice the alpha watching him with worried eyes, before it glares at Kate looking more murderous than before.

Derek and Emery shared a confused look. Why is the alpha so protective of them one minute but trying to kill them the next? Who was this alpha.

Chris pulls up, getting out of his SUV as Kate approaches him with a smirk, proud of herself, but it's clear by the look on his face he's not at all pleased by what he just walked into. He grabs her roughly by the arm and pulls her towards his car, "Get in" he demands sternly.

Kate scoffs in mock offense before retorting in a sarcastic tone "Not even, 'Hello?' 'Nice to see you?'"

"It's never nice to see you"

Chris looks around for a moment to make sure no ones watching them before turning back to her with a stern look "All I've got at the moment is 'Please put the assault rifle away before someone notices" he snaps.

Kate just rolls her eyes "That's the brother I love."

The camera pans over to show a shed several yards behind where the two are talking and a very curious Scott peers his head around the corner as he eavesdrops on their conversation.

The teens groaned seeing Scott "God, why can't you mind your own business?" Lydia asked with a scoff.

Scott rolled his eyes, "I can" he snaps.

Lydia raised one brow "Could have fooled me."

"Chris there were two of them." She says in a serious tone trying to defend her actions.

"The alpha?" He asked.

"I don't know, but one of them tried to kill me-" Kate gets cut off.

"One of them is going to lead us to the other. They can't do that if they're dead." Chris snaps.

Kate once again scoffs only this time slightly offended "Well I can't help kill any of them if one of them kills me first."

"No. No. Someone should just kill you" Emery denied. It would be better for a lot of people if Kate Argent would just die.

Chris just sighs knowing she had a point. "How long will it take?" He questions.

Kate shrugs nonchalantly, not caring either way "Give them forty-eight hours, if that."

Talia took a deep breath, trying to calm herself before she wolfed out and attacked the screen. Her son was hurt and she couldn't do anything.

Emery watched through the camera noting down the time Kate gave her brother. She watched as the two drove away before she lifted her phone to her ear "Their gone. Move in."

Noah pulled up "Where is here?" He asked getting out the car, phone in hand.

Emery pulled up the camera where Derek was, looking over it to lead her dad to him "Two alley ways ahead of you on your right."

Noah jogged to where his daughter told him and found Derek laying on the ground "I got him" Noah told her before hanging up.

He crouched down "I'm here son." Noah whispered.

Talia felt a little better seeing her lover there for their son, but that didn't stop the fear. Derek was hit with wolfsbane, he needed help quickly.

ŦŦŦŦ

The next day, Emery fully dressed, sat on the edge of the bed. Derek laid across her bed, sweaty and sleepy. Emery rung out a rang, letting the water fall into the bowl before she started cleaning Derek face from the sweat.

Derek opened his eyes "Hmm"

Emery smiled down at him "Hey, it's okay. It's okay" Emery soothed him rubbing his cheek "You're going to be okay." Derek groaned closing his eyes again.

Emery bit her lip, Derek looked to be getting worse and worse. If it was only the next day he would have 24 hours left, but he looks worse for ware.

"Alright" Noah walked up his daughter stairs "I called the school, you're free for the day and I'm free from work. So what's the plan?"

Emery got up, dusting off her skirt. She was wearing a white pleaded skirt, a red corset bone top with puffy long sleeves. She paired it with a silver chain belt and, white, grey and red sneakers.

"Cute" Lydia squealed, "Isn't that the outfit you made over the summer?" She asked. 

Emery nodded "With the fabric you got me." She worked 3 days on that outfit before she finished it. Long and hard work but worth it. 

"I'm going to head to my garden. This is a special brand of wolfsbane, so I need to mix a few different strands." 

"How long will it take?" Noah asked watching his daughter pack up a brown satchel bag. 

"An hour maybe two." Emery told him, moving the small book case by the far wall, "I need the right mixture to cure Derek or I could hurt him more" Emery looked through different books before grabbing it. 

Emery sighed in relief. Heading to her garden means she could find or make the cure for Derek. He wouldn't die. 

"You sure you want to go alone?" Noah question. 

Emery nodded closing the satchel "Someone needs to stay with Derek." She grabbed her jacket kissing her dad cheek, giving one last look to Derek before walking down her stairs. 

As she closed the door leading to the stairs, Stiles walked up to her "Where's your backpack?" He asked looking over his sister. 

Emery rolled his eyes. Why the hell was he bothering her? 

Emery rolled her eyes "Not going to school today" she said walking past him and down the stairs. 

Stiles followed behind her "What do you mean you're not going to school?" He asked. Emery huffed opening  her car door, setting her bag in the passenger seat. 

"I have some business to take care of." She told him, getting in her car and driving off. Stiles watched her confused wondering why she wasn't going to school and what business she could possibly have. 

ŦŦŦŦ

Emery walked through the woods, her satchel hanging across her chest, phone to her ear “Yeah Lydia, I’ll be back tomorrow.” 

“Good. Today was boring without my best friend there.” 

Emery laughed stepping over a fallen log “I’m sure it was.” The blond stopped in front of two trees “Hey I got to go, but I’ll call you later.” 

“Alright. See you” 

Emery hung up, slipping her phone in her bag, and pulled out her grimoire. She opened her book and flipped through the pages before coming across the right spell. 

Everyone leaned forward wanting to watch Emery do more magic. Even Scott was intrigued though she didn’t say anything. 

Emery held out her hand “Vide quid lateat” she muttered. Gold surrounded Emery hand, she closed her grimoire and stepped forward, reaching her hand towards the opening between the trees expect it didn’t reach past but hit a barrier. 

“Vide quid lateat.” Emery repeated. The barrier glowed bright gold, it started to rip away, showing a bright vibrant garden. 

“Woah.” 

“Amazing” 

Emery smiled “It’s an illusion and barrier spell. It’s hidden so no one would find it.” 

“What do you have there?” Allison asked. 

“Wolfsbane. Witch hazel. Mistletoe. I have some magic flowers as well.” Emery named off just a few things in her garden. 

Everyone looked impressed. 

  ŦŦŦŦ

Noah watched as Derek became worse. “It’s okay. Sapphires almost here.” Noah muttered wiping Derek’s face. 

“Dad” Derek groaned. 

Stiles clenched his jaw. He wasn’t Derek’s dad! His dad had one son and one daughter! 

“It’s going to be okay” Noah muttered running one hand through Derek hair. 

The door opened and footsteps rushing upstairs “I’m here!” Emery yelled. She reached the top, throwing her bag on the chair and making her way to Derek and her father “I’m here, Derek.” 

Everyone -expect two- breathe a sigh of relief. Derek was going to be okay. 

Noah sighed in relief seeing his daughter back “Is it ready?” Emery nodded and pulled out a bottle of bright purple powder. “Give it here.” 

Emery handed it over, letting her dad work as she grabbed Derek hand “I’m here Der.” Emery whispered kissing his head “Everything’s going to be okay.” 

Derek smiled at her. Noah looked at Emery and nodded. The teen moved away from Derek, just as her father pushed the powder in Derek’s arm. 

“AHHAHHAHHH” Derek scream in pain, his back arching off the bed, claws coming out and shredding Emery bedding. 

The wolves whimpered seeing their son/brother/nephew screaming in pain. 

Emery wrapped her arms around Derek holding his tightly. Peter wrapped an arm around Derek shoulder, his hand touching Emery shoulder, keeping himself calm. 

Noah wrapped his arms around Emery as she tried to reach for Derek. The two watched as he writhed in pain before he fell back onto the bed breathing heavily. 

“Son?” Noah called. 

Derek groaned siting up, “I-I’m good” he muttered leaning against the headboard. 

“Thank god” Talia muttered. 

Emery kissed Derek cheek and Peter kissed his head. The two didn’t know what they would have done if he hadn’t survived. 

Noah let go of Emery. The girl rushed towards Derek, throwing herself in his arms. Derek groaned but wrapped his arms around her waist holding him to her “I’m okay” Derek muttered looking at Noah. 

Chapter Text

After a short break where Talia smothered Derek in kisses making his sisters and Emery laugh, everyone sat down again with snacks and drinks.

Emery walked down hospital, the nurses didn't blink even though it was after hours.

Melissa tilted her head. She knew Emery visited Peter Hale every day but she didn't know Emery visited him after hours. How the nurses didn't even blink when seeing her, which means she's been doing this for a long time.

Emery slipped into the hospital room. Peter Hale laid in bed, his eyes closed, the right side of his body covered in burn scars.

Melissa, Cora, Lydia, Scott, Stiles, Allison and Chris gasped seeing Peter laying in bed burned. Talia, Noah, Laura, Derek and Emery closed their eyes for a moment, they've seen this before but it doesn't get any easier.

Peter swallowed seeing himself on screen. Chris looked away not wanting to see how badly Peter was hurt. His sister did that. His sister hurt a man so badly he wasn't healing.

"Hey Peter." Emery whispered, slipping into the chair next to his bedside "I'm sorry I haven't been able to visit." She grabbed his hand sighing in relief when it felt like a part of her was back again but she still didn't fill whole.

It's like with Derek she's okay. With Peter she's okay. But no matter what something feels like it's missing.

"I've brought your favoirte book." Emery pulled out 'How to kill a mocking bird.' from her bag. For the rest of the night Emery read out loud, she didn't know if Peter could hear her. She didn't know if he even knows she's here but Emery will sit here for hours and read to him.

"I knew." Peter told her, taking his hand in his. He was sitting on her left and Derek was on her right. "I always knew when you were there." Emery smiled, leaing up to kiss his cheek.

The three of them haven't spoken about this mate, soul bond thing. They needed more than just a 20 minute talk. So right now their just taking it step-by-step.

Slowly Emery fell asleep, her head resting on the bed, hand still holding Peter's. A nurse entered to take his vitials and smiled at the sight. This has been a sight the nurses have gotten used to since Peter was emitted to the hospital.

She walked towards the stroage cloest and grabbed the blanket they took to keeping and drapped it over the young Stilinski child.

"Yeah this had to happen a lot." Melissa muttered watching her colleague drap a blanket over Emery. She wondered how many times the younger Stilinski stayed the night.

ŦŦŦŦ

Emery was woken up when her phone started ringing. She slowly sat up, rubbing her eyes. The ringing stopped so Emery closed her eyes again only to groan when it started ringing again.

She sat up, grabbing her bag and pulling out her phone "Hello?" she asked sleepily.

"Emery, how fast can you get to the house?" Derek asked.

Emery yawned before answering "Uh, give me 5 minutes and I'll be there."

"Okay. I'll be waiting."

Emery hung up, she looked at the time and noticed she was asleep for 2 hours. She folded the blanket putting it back in the storage, kissing Peter on the head before leaving.

Lydia smiled a little, it was so cute.

She didn't notice Peter wasn't in the same position he was in before falling asleep.

Everyone looked at Peter who closed his eyes. Laura smiled a little, moving closer to her uncle "It's okay. Everyone will understand." She muttered.

Talia and Noah shared looks, there's something Laura and Peter aren't telling them.

ŦŦŦŦ

"What's he doing here?" Emery asked walking towards Derek and Scott, glaring at the young wolf. She changed from the dress she was wearing to black shorts, a tanktop and a large leather jacket along with a pair of all black vans.

Lydia eyed the outfit before nodding. "Nice." It was a good outfit for the woods.

Derek sighed "He apparently wants to help." Emery scoffed. Derek looked at her before narrowing his eyes "Is that my jacket?" He asked pointing a finger at her.

Emery froze for a moment, "Maybe." She shrugged pulling the jacket closer to her.

Derek narrowed his eyes "I've been looking for that since last summer!" Derek looked at Emery who shrugged, "Mine now." Derek looked at her in disbelief while Larua and Cora chuckled.

Derek shook his head with a smile "Come on." The two started walking with Scott following behind them.

"What are we doing anyways?" Scott asked.

"Tracking the alpha." Emery told him coldly, smiling when Derek picked her up, one arm around her waist, lifting her over a large fall log.

Allison whistled as Lydia fanned herself. Emery playfully glared at the two girls as Luara and Cora gagged playfully at their brother. Talia giggled at the girls while Noah frowned stubbornly.

ŦŦŦŦ

20 minutes of searching for the alpha came to a stop when Noah called his daughter, telling her about the death at the movie store.

The three made their way to the movie store, climbing to the roof, watching the chaos below them.

Laura looked at her Uncle who nodded.

Emery watched as her dad tried to talk Jackson down, and Lydia sit in the back of the ambulance with a shock blanket and phone in hand.

Emery tensed, looking concerned for both Jackson and Lydia. Lydia looked at her future self concerned, and wondered what the hell happened.

A second later, Emery phone buzzed. She pulled it out seeing a text from Lydia.

Sister from another mother: SOS.

"I have to go." Emery slipped her phone In her pocket, kissing Derek on the cheek before rushing away.

Lydia and Emery smiled at each other. They have code words for different situations but SOS, means they need the other person right now.

Emery climbed down the fire escape quickly, jumping the last 2 inches landing on the ground before running around the building, stopping at the edge of the crowd.

She took a deep breath before pushing through the crowd, stopping next to her dad police car where Stiles was standing.

"Why are you with dad?" She asked, knowing Stiles doesn't spend his time with their dad.

Stiles looked down. That wasn't true, sure he doesn't spend a lot of time with his dad but he spends time with him... right?

Stiles huffed "Dad grounded me so I'm not allowed alone."

Emery smirked at him before pushing past him, walking past the deputies who smiled at her. Stiles watched in disbelief wondering why none of them stopped her.

If he tried walking onto an active crime scene, he wouldn't even make it to the suspect before someone caught him.

"Because they know I'm not there to mess with their work." Emery told Stiles, the  like you do  was silent but those who knew Stiles understood it.

Stiles huffed crossing his arms ignoring the looks he was getting from everyone.

"Dad, Lydia, Jackson!" Emery called rushing towards the three. Lydia jumped off the edge of the ambulance and threw herself at her best friend.

Emery caught Lydia in her arms, pulling the strawberry blond into a tight hug "Are you guy's okay?" Emery asked, looking at Jackson.

Jackson nodded "I'm fine."

"Woah, hey is that a dead body!" Stiles yelled catching their attention. Noah turned to him giving him a stern look while Jackson and Emery glared at the teen.

Stiles shrunk back, and lowered his head.

Scott rolled his eyes, how could Stiles be scared of a glare.

Noah walked towards the three "Can you get them home?" He asked.

Emery nodded "Yeah. Come on." Jackson handed Emery his keys, knowing he couldn't drive right now.

Scott and Stiles shared stunned looks. Jackson actually let Emery drive his car! He wouldn't even let Lydia drive his car and he's banging the girl.

Noah pulled Lydia into a hug, patted Jackson on his shoulder and kissed his daughter head before they all left.

Lydia and Emery smiled at Noah, who leaned forward to kiss both of them "Love you girls." He muttered.

"Love you too." They both said before smiling at each other.

ŦŦŦŦ

Emery stopped in front of Lydia house, getting out the car with Jackson and Lydia "You two call me if you need anything, okay" Emery told them.

Jackson nodded "How are you getting home?" He asked worriedly.

Just as he said that, a black Camaro pulled up to the curve "I got a ride. Stay safe." Emery pulled Lydia into another hug before the girl walked inside.

Jackson looked at the Camaro before looking at the girl who was like his sister "Call me if anything happens." He told her, pulling her into a hug, and kissing her head. Emery smiled hugging him back "I will." She promised.

Emery smiled while Stiles frowned. "She only has one brother." He muttered not noticing the glares he got from the Hales.

Jackson waited until Emery was in the car before he went inside, closing the door behind him.

ŦŦŦŦ

The next morning, Emery was seen in a light blue washed jeans, with a red bunny on the back pocket that stopped at her belly button. A red, tub top with bows on the top and red and white sneakers

"Cute!" Allison, Lydia, Laura and Cora squealed.

"You need more clothes" Noah told his daughter. Emery rolled her eyes knowing her dad is always going to be over protective.

She walked down the hallway with Belle and Abby on either side of her, each holding a gift bag. The three of them see Allison by her locker and smiled.

"Happy birthday Allie!" They state.

Allison squealed, spinning around "Damn, trying to kill me." She asked a hand on her chest.

The teens laughed at Allison making her smack Lydia and Emery.

The girls laughed "Sorry." Belle smiled at her, "Happy Birthday!" The three held up the gift bags.

Emery looked at the balloons and laughed "I see Lydia did her birthday ritual." For all their birthday's, Lydia fills their lockers with balloons, and a gift. It's the highlight of their day.

Lydia nodded "Of course I do. I want my friends to know they're loved." There wasn't a birthday she missed.

Allison smiled at her friend "Thank you."

Allison smiled at them "How did you guys know?" Abby and Belle pointed at Emery who smirked "I know everything. Now open." She shoved her bag at Allison.

The hunter girl laughed and grabbed the bag "You didn't have to get me anything." She told the blond, opening her gift.

Emery smiled as Allison pulled out a box "I had to ask your dad for your size." She said taking the bag from Allison. Abby and Belle shared looks and leaned forward, knowing what their friend got her but wanting to see what Emery did with the designs.

Lydia and Laura leaned forward. It was normal to get something custom made from Emery for their birthdays.

Shoes.

Shirts.

Necklaces's.

Bracelets.

If Emery can make or custom the things, she will do it.

Allison brows furrowed but opened the box, her mouth dropping open when she sees them "Oh my God" She muttered taking one of the boots out.

It looked like normal black boots at first until it's fully out of the box and you see black flowers all over the boots, with white flowers- Daisies, roses and other flowers- along with butterflies.

"Are...are these hand painted?" Allison asked.

Emery nodded "Yep. Finished them just last night."

"Oh my God. You did that?" Allison asked shocked.

Emery nodded "I'm really into Fashion, that means shoes as well."

"E, that has to be one of your best ones yet." Lydia complimented, Cora and Laura nodding in agreement.

Emery smiled happily "Thanks."

"Oh I have to put these on now." Allison handed the box to Emery, as she took off her boots, put them in her locker and grabbed the boots Emery made "Oh these are so cute!" She squealed.

The girls laughed at how happy Allison seemed. "My turn" Abby smiled when Allison put Emery gift bag in her locker. Allison smiled taking the bag from her and opened it, pulling out a small ring box.

"Wow." Allison smiled.

The ring was beautiful piece. It was 25 karat gold with a purple crystal in the middle, two leave stems, one going up and one going down, Each leaves had a small diamond on them.  

"Ohhh pretty."

"Oh thank you Abby." Allison smiled, slipping the ring on right away. Abby smiled, making Emery smile, at her friends.

"Here you go!" Belle handed Allison her bag. Allison pulled out a bigger box than the ring box, and opened it "Belle, this beautiful." Allison pulled out a 25 karat gold charm bracelet.

"Wow." Allison didn't know what to say. She had no idea how she got these amazing friends who care enough to gift her things.

"Help me?" Allison asked. Belle nodded and clipped the bracelet on before backing away. Allison smiled at the three "Thank you guys. Usually I try to hide my birthday but you guys made my day." She told them, closing her locker.

"Really, why?" Emery asked fixing her backpack higher up on her shoulder as the four start walking to class.

Allison bit her looking around before leaning closer to the girls "Because I'm 17" She whispered.

Allison bit her lip. Emery looked at the girl confused "Why are you whispering that? You stayed back because of all the moving you did."

Allison stared at her for a moment before jumping out of her seat, rushing to pull Emery into a hug "Oh, okay" Emery said shocked but hugged Allison back.

"Thank you for being the only person who ever got it." Allison told her as she pulled back, "Usually the kids are mean when they find out I got held back a grade."

"Well, kids are stupid." Emery shrugged making Allison laugh.

The girls looked at her confused "So?" Abby asked "You got held back because you move so much." Emery and Belle nod in agreement.

Allison stopped walking, looking at the girls before pulling them into a group hug "You guys are the first to ever guess correctly." Allison told them.

Belle rolled her eyes "People are stupid."

"Got that right."

The girls laughed and made their way to class.

ŦŦŦŦ

Belle and Emery sat in Harris class, Emery next to Danny and Belle behind them with Stiles in front of them.

As soon as they sit down Harris starts talking "Just a friendly reminder parent/teacher conference are tonight. Students below a 'C' average are required to attend, I won't name you because the same and self-disgust should be more than enough punishment." He states stopping at Stiles desk "Has anyone seen Scott McCall?" Stiles look up with a pen lid in his mouth looking around to see Scott wasn't here.

Melissa smacked Scott upside the head "Ow mom." Scott whined rubbing his head.

Melissa glared at her son "You better not be skipping." She warned.

The door opened and Jackson walks in. Harris walks over to the Whittmore boy "Hey Jackson, if you need to leave early for any reason, you let me know" Harris whispered.

"Wow, he does have a heart." Stiles said sarcastically rolling his eyes.

This is the first time Lydia, Emery and Allison had to agree with Stiles. Harris only has a heart when it can get him something.

Jackson just nods, and moves to his seat as Harris goes back to teaching "Everyone, let's start reading chapter nine. Mr. Stilinski, try putting the highlighter down between paragraphs, it's chemistry, not a coloring book."

Noah sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose.

Stiles spits the lid out in the air and catches it before turning to Danny and Emery "Hey, guys, can I ask you a question?"

"No." They replies bluntly, not looking up from their books.

"Well I'm going to anyway." Emery rolled her eyes.

"Of course you are." Peter growled, hating how Stiles would just disregard what Emery and Danny told him.

"Did Lydia show up in your home room today?" The buzz cut boy asked leaning closer to his twin and her boy best friend.

Danny sighs "No."

"She's not here." Emery told him.

"Can I ask another question?" Stiles asked still moving closer.

"Answer's still no." Danny told him looking severely annoyed.

Lydia chuckled "Danny is in no mood." She muttered to Allison who nodded in agreement.

It was so obvious to everyone Danny has no lost love towards the male Stilinski and never will be.

"Does anyone know what happened to her and Jackson last night?" Stiles asked looking between Danny and his sister.

Danny hesitates "He wouldn't tell me."

Emery glared at Stiles, she knows Danny feels like he's letting down Jackson because the blond wouldn't tell him what happened. "Why don't you ask your best friend." She snapped.

Stiles looked at her with wide eyes that she was actually talking to her "What do you mean?" He asked leaning closer to Emery, falling out of his chair in the process, causing Emery to smirk.

Belle giggled looking over Emery shoulder to see the boy on the floor "Karma." She sang making Danny and Emery smile at her.

The girls giggled as Stiles blushed in embarrassment, sliding down in his seat.

ŦŦŦŦ

Emery walked up the stairs flicking on her lights. It was already dark out as practice ran later than normal because they have a competition in a couple of days.

Emery paused at the top of her stairs to see Derek, shirtless on her bed.

It wasn't the fact that he was there, it's normal for him to be in her room after school, what made her pause was the look on his face.

Like he didn't know what to believe.

Emery grabbed Derek hand and Peter reached over to lay a hand on his shoulder. He had a feeling he knew what Derek found out.

"Der? What's wrong?" Emery asked dropping her backpack and cheer bag.

"Hunters didn't kill Laura." Derek muttered. Emery face fell "The alpha did."

"What?" Emery whispered.

Peter took a deep breath. Laura laid a hand on Peter shoulder, it wasn't his fault, it was hers and she would regret it for the rest of her life.

Peter reached up and gripped her hand, smiling softly at her to let her know it was okay.

Emery didn't know what to think. They thought hunters got to her but they should have known better. The alpha spark didn't go to Derek like it should have.

That alpha who attack and turned Scott killed their sister. That alpha had the Hale spark.

Laura bit her lip trying not to laugh. Well the Hale Spark was in a Hale wolf. They just didn't know it yet.

"H-h-" Emery took a deep breath. Derek reached out, wrapping his arms around her waist giving and receiving some support. Emery wrapped her arms around his neck looking down at her "How do you know?"

"Kate Argent paid me a visit." Derek admitted after an hour.

The Hales growled, which was impressive for Emery and Noah since they weren't wolves.

Chris shook his head wondering if his sister was trying to get herself killed.

Emery growled.

Derek raised a brow, for a non-wolf that was a very wolf like growl.

"I grew up around you guys. You pick it up." Emery shrugged getting offended gasp from her sisters.

"We do not growl like that." Cora told her.

"Yes you do." Noah and Emery said making Lydia, Allison, Melissa and Chris laugh while the wolves huffed.

"What did that bitch do?" Emery asked eyes going gold for a moment before Derek started rubbing her hips calming her down.

"Nothing I want to talk about right now." Derek said shaking his head. Emery huffed but didn't say anything. She'll find out soon.

"I will." Emery said side eyeing Derek.

"I am" Derek continued "Going to stay here for a few nights. It isn't safe at the house." He would risk going back to the house tonight.

Emery nodded "Okay. You know you're always welcomed."

"Always, son." Noah told Derek leaning forward to pat his shoulder.

"Thanks Dad" He muttered, shooting him a slight smile.

Stiles shot the two slight glares. Why does  his  dad keep calling Derek son?! And 'Thanks dad'. What the hell! That is his dad, not Derek's.

She leaned down and kissed his cheek "I'm going to get changed. You get comfortable."

Derek nodded with a slight smile as he backed up on bed watching Emery put her bags away and grab her clothes heading to the bathroom.

He rested against the pillows shutting his eyes. 5 minutes later he felt the bed dip and Emery cuddle into his side "Goodnight." He muttered.

"Goodnight." Emery muttered back.

Laura and Cora shared a look before leaning forward "Awe so cute!" They cooed.

Derek and Peter shared a look before pushing the girls back in their seats as Emery laughed.

ŦŦŦŦ

Emery and Derek were asleep together on their sides, Derek had his arms wrapped around Emery holding her to his chest when a phone started ringing none stop.

Derek groaned opening his eyes looking around, seeing one of their phones lighting up.

Phone call in the middle of the night? Oh no, that won't end well.

He reached over Emery, picking up the phone "Hello?" He asked voice rough.

Emery bit her lip at his voice. Something but her mates noticed and shared a smirk over her head.

Noah saw the interaction and grimaced. He did not want to see that! Ever!

Derek shot up in bed, waking Emery up "What's wrong?" Emery asked rubbing her eyes "Is that my phone?"

Derek held up a finger listening to what was said on the other line "We'll be there soon." He said before hanging up. "Get dressed." He told Emery getting out of bed.

Emery quickly got up "What happened?" She asked slipping on some sweats and a sweater as Derek did the same.

"It's dad. He's in the hospital."

The Hales, Chris, Allison, Lydia, Melissa and Stiles tensed "What?!" The girls yelled, worried for their dad.

Noah cuddled into Talia as he sent a reassuring smile to his kids. He's sure his future self is okay.

Emery eyes went wide "What!? Is he okay?" She asked slipping on her shoes.

Derek shrugged on his leather jacket "They didn't tell me much just that it happened at the parent conference and he hit his head." He grabbed his phone and keys with one hand and grabbed Emery hand with his other hand "Come on"

Chapter Text

Emery held Derek hand tightly, glancing at her dad every once in a while. Talia held Noah hand, as Laura and Cora held each other, Lydia moving closer to them.

Emery and Derek rush down the hall of the hospital, pushing past some nurses.

"Dad," Emery pushed into his room.

Noah sat on the hospital bed, Melissa stitching up a wound on his head Stiles standing behind him, by the wall.

"What happened?" Emery asked rushing to her dad side, Derek closing the door behind them. Melissa glanced at Derek then at Emery.

"A mountain lion was at the school. During the commotion a car backed up into your dad."

Emery clenched her jaw, "Whoever was driving clearly doesn't deserve their license." She muttered, glaring at the screen.

Derek and Peter nodded in agreement.

"Are you okay daddy?" Emery asked.

Noah smiled softly at his daughter, "I'm fine Sapphire," he glanced at Derek "I promise." Derek pressed his lips but didn't say anything, knowing he was going to take his pain on the ride home.

Noah must have seen that on Derek face because he only nodded before wincing when it pulled on his stitches.

"Keep still," Melissa scolded him.

"Take pain?" Scott asked, glancing at the wolves.

"It's something all wolves could do. If they care." Cora told him, not taking her eyes off the screen.

"How did you get here?" Derek asked, speaking for the first time.

"Ambulance."

Emery looked at Derek who nodded, "I'll handle it." He whispered kissing her forehead before leaving the room.

Noah knew exactly what Derek meant and shook his head, "Son you don't-"

"Dad, let me do this." Derek cut him off. "It's no big deal."

Noah sighed, he hated that he had to ask for help sometimes, but he also knew Derek wouldn't mind. Oh he made sure to never take advantage of Derek or Laura but he did ask for a few things. Mostly for Emery since he didn't want her money being touched until she was 18.

"Thank you." Noah smiled.

"No problem."

Emery looked at Melissa "How long would this take?" She asked.

"The doctors want to do a MRI just to make sure Noah is in the clear, so about 40-50 minutes."

Emery nodded.

"Sapphire, why don't you visit Peter?" Noah suggested.

Emery frowned, "You sure?"

Noah went to nod before pausing remembering what Melissa said and smiled instead, "Of course."

"Okay. Tell Derek where I am." Emery told her father kissing his cheek, "Bye Melissa." She smiled at the nurse.

"Bye Emery." Melissa smiled at the blond teen as she left the room.

ŦŦŦŦ

After getting back to the house, and setting her dad up for the night with Tylenol for his headache, Emery crawled into bed next to Derek. Thankfully, her dad didn't have anything more than soft tissue damage and Emery already fixed that with her magic.

"Woah, you can do that?" Allison asked in awe.

Emery nodded, "Small things like that. If I were to heal a big wound, I would need to use a lot of my magic depending on how life threatening the wound is."

Which is something she will never do. A promise she made to her mom and dad when they figured out what she could heal. It was too much of a risk and they didn't want anything happening to their daughter.

Derek laid in bed, shirtless, one arm behind his head, the other at his side "How is dad?"

Emery sighed, falling into his side, his arm wrapping around her, "Good. I healed the damage but he still has three days off." Emery cuddled closer to Derek, pulling the blanket over them. "Can we just. . . sleep in?" Emery yawned.

"Yeah, honey. Get some sleep." Derek kissed her head. Emery hummed, closing her eyes.

"Awe." Allison and Lydia squealed.

Cora and Laura smiled at Emery and Derek. Their kind of surprised that they didn't have any problems with those two dating.

They see the other as siblings but Derek and Emery never did and it didn't bother them.

ŦŦŦŦ

Scott was holding a bunch of grocery bags trying to find the car. "Damn it," he mutters, realizing he can't remember where he parked his mom car. He goes up to another level, sets the bags down to pull out the keys.

Listening, Scott groans when he heard the beeping coming from above him. He bends down, grabbing the bags when the milk fell out the bag rolling under a car. "Crap!" Scott groaned picking up the bag when the milk rolled back, claw marks across the container.

The room became tense, wondering if the alpha was after Scott again. Half the room might not like the guy, but none wanted the alpha to attack Scott.

Scott stares at the milk when a growl echoed through the parking garage. Scott doesn't waste any time, dropping the bag and taking off, as the person chases him.

Scott pauses for a moment looking around, before he jumped on the hoods of the car, setting off the car alarms.

Emery leaned back, looking impressed. She didn't think Scott was that smart to use the cars to his advantage.

Scott stops at the last car, and ducks behind it, heart beating heavily, when his phone starts ringing. "No, no, stop." He mutters, pulling his phone out to decline the call.

"Never mind," Emery muttered shaking her head. That's why you always keep your phone on silent or vibrate.

A thud is heard before Scott was grabbed by two hands lifting him up and slammed on the car.

Melissa grabbed her son hand, holding it tightly.

Looking up, he sees Derek staring down at him "You're dead," he said.

Melissa sighed in relief, "Derek," She gave him a look.

Derek shrugged, "I said I was going to train him." He never said how though.

Scott stared at him in shock, as Derek jumped off walking towards Emery who was waiting back, on her phone.

Talia sighs, shaking her head at her son. Honestly not knowing what to do or say anymore.

"What the hell was that?" Scott asked loudly.

"Said I was gonna teach you. I didn't say when." Derek said merely glancing at the new wolf, draping his arm around Emery shoulder walking away.

"You scared the crap out of me!" Scott shouts.

Emery didn't look up from her phone, "Not yet." She told him.

Cora laughed silently.

"O-okay but I was fast right?" the new wolf asks defensively.

"Not fast enough," Derek retorts unimpressed.

Scott scoffs, "But the car alarm thing! That was smart, right?"

"Till your phone rang," Emery sighed irritated, sliding her phone in her pocket.

"Yeah, but that was- I mean-" Scott stammers, "Would you just stop please?" he asked exasperatedly. The two stopped, turning around to face him, "What happened the other night? You're and Stiles dad getting hurt? That was my fault."

Emery glared at Scott. Derek and Peter wrapping their arm around her shoulder and waist, keeping her seated.

Cora growled at Scott making him flinch back.

"Cora," Talia warned her daughter. Cora huffed but turned back to the screen.

Emery glared at him, taking a step forward but Derek tighten his hold on her. "Wait in the car, Em." Derek told her, pulling out his keys handing them to her.

"Fine." Emery huffed, glaring at Scott one more time before heading to the car.

"Should have let her beat his ass." Laura muttered.

Scott waited until Emery was out of sight before he spoke again, "What happened was my fault. I should of been there to do something. I need you to teach me how to control this."

Derek sighs, "Look, I am what I am because of birth, you were bitten. Teaching someone who was bitten takes time. I don't even know if I can teach you."

Scott glanced at Talia who nodded. Bitten wolves take more time to train unless they were a natural, but that was rare.

It why alpha are always careful when picking humans to be part of their pack.

"What do I do?" He asked Derek.

"You have to get rid of distractions," Derek grabbed Scott's phone. "You see this? This is why I caught you." Derek glanced at the screen, "You should ask him for tips not to get caught." Derek showed him the screen.

'Missed Call. Stiles.'

Stiles winced, "Sorry," he muttered to Scott who looked at him annoyed.

Scott glared at him, "Why? Just because he's Emery brother?" He spits out Emery name.

The Hales, Allison, Chris and Melissa glared at Scott. Melissa didn't understand why Scott hated Emery but she was getting tired of him being rude to her.

Derek wolf howled in anger at Scott, making his eyes flash blue. Derek now angry holds Scott's phone out before throwing it at the wall.

"Go Derek!" Lydia cheered.

Melissa sighed, seeing the broken phone but didn't scold the older boy knowing he was angry on Emery behalf.

Scott looked at the screen in disbelief then at his mom who didn't look bothered at all.

"Wait, wait, wait. . . whoa!" Scott gasp helplessly.

"Are you getting angry? That's your first lesson, you want to learn how to control this, how to shift, you do it through anger, by tapping into a primal animal rage." Derek shouts.

Talia sighed, pitching the bridge of her nose. Noah just looked amused, knowing Derek got that from Peter.

Peter himself looked amused knowing he taught Derek that, since nothing else worked.

Scott glares at Derek, "I can get angry." He told him.

"Not angry enough!" Derek exclaims exasperated. "This is the only way I can teach you. Now, can you stay out of trouble and focus on this?"

Scott sighs, "If that's what it takes."

"Do you want to live?" Derek questioned. "Do you want to protect your friends? Yes or No?"

"Please he doesn't have any friends." Lydia scoffed.

"I have friends." Scott snapped.

Emery glared at Scott, "You have Stiles. That's all." She glared at him, eyes flaring making Scott shrink back.

"Yes. If you can teach me, I can focus on training." Scott said.

Derek eyed him for a moment before turning around and leaving. He made his way to his car, sliding into the driver seat.

Emery sat in the passenger seat, shoes off, knees to her chest, phone in hand.

"Everything okay?" Derek asked.

"Yeah." Emery nodded, looking at him quickly, "Just some cheer stuff." She turned off her phone, "Food?"

Derek laughed, "Sure."

ŦŦŦŦ

Emery closed the door, locking it "Dad?" Emery called out setting the bag of food on the floor as she shrugged off her jacket, hanging it up.

"Kitchen!" Noah called out.

Emery picked up the food and made her way towards the kitchen. Noah sat at the table, case files open around him.

Emery fondly shook her head. Her dad was always working, trying to get over time for more money, but he didn't need to work that hard.

Emery moved to the counter setting the bag on the counter "Got board?" Emery laughed, grabbing two plates and two cups.

"Yeah. Had Tara drop off some cold cases." Noah shrugged closing the files, watching Emery plate the food. "Fast food?"

Emery shot him a look, opening the fridge "Only tonight." She told him, grabbing the Coca-Cola bottle and Root Beer bottle.

"Still worried about you huh?" Talia muttered softly.

Noah nodded, "When doesn't she?" he asked smiling at Emery though part of him felt bad. Emery shouldn't worry about him as much as she does.

Noah got up, taking the two bottle from her, "I got it." Emery smiled, taking the plates to the table while Noah poured the sodas.

Noah brought the cups to the table, taking his seat again, "Where's Derek?" He asked pulling his plate closer to him.

Chicken sandwich with fries.

"At least it looks good." Noah muttered.

"He went to Scott's to make sure the boy got home." Emery shrugged pouring ketchup over her fries. "Where's Stiles?"

"Scotts."

The two shared looks before focusing on their food.

Peter laughed, "Something they both share. Love for food." Derek nodded in agreement making Emery elbow them in the ribs.

"Ugh, Emery."

Emery smiled focusing on the screen.

ŦŦŦŦ

The next morning at school, Emery was walking down the hall, wearing a long sleeve black shirt, a white skirt with bows on the side, black boots and her black leather jacket.

"Oh cute!" Lydia gushed, looking over Emery outfit, (Ignore the purse and belt) "It's a little different from your usual but still nice."

"Thanks, Lyd's." Emery smiled, tilting her head. It was different, not much pop of color but she liked it.

Emery walks into class taking her seat in front of Scott next to Stiles.

"Still not talking to me?" The newly turned wolf asked Stiles, receiving no answer. "Can you at least tell me if your dads okay? I mean it's just a bruise right? Some soft tissue damage? Nothing big?"

"Nothing big? Oh I'll show you something big!" Emery tried to launch herself at Scott but Peter grabbed her by the waist, picking her up. "Peter! Put me down!" Emery yelled banging on his back as he stood up throwing her over his shoulder.

"I'll calm her down." Peter told everyone, walking towards the door at the back of the room.

"This isn't over McCall!" Emery yelled before the door shut.

Emery jaw clenched. Nothing big? Just because it was tissue damage doesn't mean it wasn't anything big! If her father had fell just a bit harder, he could have gotten a concussion or something worse.

He's lucky they were in school, or else she would have hurt him by now.

Scott glanced at the closed door and didn't doubt that for a second.

"You know I feel really bad about it right?" Emery looked at Stiles seeing his irritated expression, then to Scott seeing his guilty look, but Emery could see the irritation behind his eyes.

Stiles glanced at Scott confused. Why would he be irritated at him when it was his father that got hurt.

"Okay, what if I told you that I'm trying to figure this whole thing out and that I went to Derek for help?"

Stiles sighs annoyed, "If I was talking to you I'd say that you're an idiot for trusting him."

Emery rolled her eyes. "Dad and I trust him, are we idiots?" She asked, glancing at him.

Stiles glanced at her but didn't say anything. He lasted three seconds before turning to Scott "What did he say?"

Emery shook her head, "Weak," she muttered opening her notebook.

"I am not weak!" Stiles shouted.

Lydia gave him a assessing look, "Sure." she drawled out.

ŦŦŦŦ

At lunch, Emery, Allison, Lydia, Abby, Belle sat together. Allison was telling them about her history, Abby sitting next to the dark haired teen, an arm around her shoulder.

"The what of who?" Lydia asks.

"The beast of Gevaudan," Allison responds. Emery tensed looking up from her lunch, of pasta, baby potatoes, shrimp and green beans.

Lydia sighed, "God why can't my mom make me lunch like that." Lydia wished her mom would spend time to make her food like Emery takes time to make food for her and her dad.

Allison nodded in agreement. Her mother loved her but she didn't spend much time on her. Not like her dad but even he is bust a lot of the time.

"Listen, 'A quadruped wolf-like monster, prowling the Auvergne and South Dordogne areas of France during the year 1764 to 1767. La Bete killed over 100 people, becoming so infamous that the King Louis XV sent one of his best hunters to try and kill it."

Allison leaned forward wanting to know more while Chris cursed his sister knowing Kate was trying to get Allison to find out about their family.

"Boring," Lydia states stealing a shrimp from Emery lunch.

Abby gives Lydia a look "Continue." She told Allison.

"Even the church eventually declared the monster a messenger of Satan." Allison continued.

Emery rolled her eyes, sure La Bete was an actual monster but not every other wolf.

"Still boring."

"Cryptozoologists believe it may have been a subspecies of hoofed predator, possibly a meson child."

"Slipping into a coma bored." Lydia states. Emery tensed up at the mention of coma. Belle gave Lydia a look, "Sorry," she muttered grabbing Emery hand.

"It's okay." Emery gave a strained smile.

Lydia winced, feeling bad she brought that up with Emery around. Though thankfully the girl and Peter still weren't in the room.

The Hales all winced glancing at the door themselves making sure neither Peter and Emery were there.

Allison continued, not noticing the exchange between her teammates, "While others believe it was a powerful sorcerer who could shape-shift into a man-eating monster."

"Any of this have anything to do with your family?" Lydia asked.

"This." Allison looked up with an excited smile, "It is believed that La Bete was finally trapped and killed by a renown hunter who claimed his wife and four children we're the first to fall prey to the creature." Lydia raised an eyebrow at the Argent girl, "His name was Argent."

"Wrong." Chris shook his head.

Allison looked at her dad confused, "What do you mean wrong?"

"The hunter was an Argent, that was right." Chris told her, "But it wasn't a male. It was a female. Marie-Jeanna Valet who killed La Bete. Argent was her husbands name."

Allison perked up, "So a female beat the male to the kill, huh?" She asked with a smile.

Chris nodded, "Yes she did."

"Your ancestors killed a big wolf. So what?" Belle asked confused.

"Not just a big wolf, take a look at this." Allison flips the book towards the others, who took in the picture "What does it look like to you?"

Emery, Lydia, Abby, and Belle looked at the photo. Abby and Belle shrugged while Emery and Lydia stared at the picture.

The Hales stared at the photo.

"It looks like the alpha." Cora whispered.

Laura glanced back to the door, before looking at her little sister, "It's okay Cora." She whispered hugging her close.

"Lydia? Em?" Allison asked.

Lydia blinked looking at the girls "It looks like a big wolf. See you in history." Lydia states before standing up and rushing off.

"Weird." Belle muttered concerned.

"Em?" Abby asked her friend seeing Emery still staring at the wolf.

Emery cleared her throat, "It's a wolf." She shrugged looking down at her food.

Belle, Abby and Allison shared confused and concerned looks but didn't say anything, else on the topic.

ŦŦŦŦ

Emery, Allison and Abby entered Coach's classroom.

"Let's go, sit, sit, sit. We got a lot to cover today. Let's go. Quicker" Coach ushered them. Emery and Abby took their seats, Emery sitting in front of Abby. Sadly Allison sat behind Scott.

Cora laid a hand on Allison shoulder, "I'm sorry." She apologized, seriously. Laura and Lydia had to hide their laughter from the others as Talia and Noah looked at her amused.

"Let's settle down." Coach states, leaning on the edge of his desk "Let's start with a quick summary of last night's reading. Greenberg put your hand down. Everybody knows you did the reading."

"How about, uh. . . McCall?" Coach picked.

Scott looks up confused "What?"

"The reading." Coach says eyebrows raised.

"Last night's reading?"

Melissa smacked Scott upside the head.

"Mom!" Scott exclaims holding his head.

"How about you do your homework." Melissa scolded him.

Emery shook her head, knowing he did not do the reading.

"How about the reading of The Gettysburg Address?" Coach asked, drawing some laughs from the students.

"What?"

"That's sarcasm. You familiar with the term 'sarcasm' McCall?"

Scott looked back at Stiles who smirked proudly, "Very." He said looking back at Coach making Emery laugh.

"Did you do the reading or not?" Coach asked, done with the boy.

"Um. . . I think I forgot." Scott says sheepishly.

Melissa sighs shaking her head.

"Nice work, McCall. It's not like you're not averaging a 'D' in this class." While others laugh, Stiles, Emery, Abby and Allison look uncomfortable. The three girls don't like the boy, but they also didn't like someone be humiliated in public.

Talia and Noah smiled proudly. They've raised each kid to be kind even if they didn't like someone. It's nice to see Emery was still that kind girl.

"Come on buddy, you know I can't keep you on the team if you have a 'D'. How about you summarise, uh, the previous night's reading?" Emery pressed her lips, worried about what could happen if Coach kept pushing. "No? How about the night before that? How about you summarize anything you've ever read in your entire life?"

"I-I. . . uh," Scott muttered embarrassed.

"Not good." Laura said.

"Yeah coach is embarrassing me in front of everyone." Scott said glaring at the screen.

Laura shook her head, "No, well he shouldn't be doing that publicly." The Hales, Allison, Chris and Lydia nodded in agreement, "But embarrassment turns to anger real quick."

Scott didn't look amused by her answer but took note in the back of his mind. He would try to work on his anger.

Emery looked at Abby who shook her head. This wasn't something either girls could laugh about because it was kind of cruel. Emery turned back around, glancing out the classroom door window, seeing the fire alarm.

"No? A blog? How about. . . how about the back of a cereal box?"

Emery glanced at a red face Scott and an angry Coach, then back at the firealarm, narrowing her eyes as they flashed gold.

Stiles glanced her way, then did a double take noticing her eyes. "Emery?" He whispered. Emery ignored him, suddenly the firealarm flipped down and the alarm sounded throughout the school.

Students grabbed their bags and rushed out the classroom. Emery smirked, grabbing her bag and leaving with Allison and Abby, glancing back to see Stiles looking at her shocked. She smirked at him before leaving the room.

The Hales smiled proudly.

Scott and Stiles looked shocked. "Why would she...?" Scott trailed off not getting why Emery would help him.

"Simple," Noah looked at Scott, "Emery didn't want you wolfing out. Who knows who you could have hurt."

That made more sense.

ŦŦŦŦ

It was after school and Emery stood in the gym, wearing a white sport bra and shorts practicing her tumbling.

Emery took a deep breath before she took off in a run, performing a round off backhandspring full twisiting layout. Emery landed with a wobble but stayed on her feet.

"Nice." Allison smirked seeing the landing. It was a good run, Emery just needed to keep her legs straight on the twist.

"Could be better," She muttered to herself, walking over to the bleachers and grabbing her water bottle.

She drunk half of it before packing up her bag, as she was leaving the intercome went on. "What?" The intercome shouldn't been on at all. Suddenly a loud sound, that sounded like a cat dying was heard, making Emery cringe.

"Oh what the hell?" Stiles asked as the wolves cringed covering their ears.

"I think your friend just tried to howl." Lydia told Stiles with a smirk. God now that is something they could laugh about, but she had a feeling it wasn't a good thing.

"What the fuck was that?" Emery asked outloud. Shaking her head, she rushed out the school, and down the stairs looking behind her to make sure no one was there. Emery spun around, a shocked gasp leaving her when Derek was suddenly in front of her.

"Derek!" Emery shouted one hand on her chest.

"What are you doing here?" Derek asked her.

"I was practicing. What are you doing here? And what was that-" Emery got cut off by a loud roar that traveled through the air.

Everyone looked at the screen with wide eyes.

"Do you have any idea on what you've done?" Talia asked looking at the two teen boys.

Scott shrugged not really caring while Stiles looks nervous.

"You morons!" Laura snapped glaring at them, "You just called the alpha to the school! With no protection of any kind."

Stiles paled, eyes wide while Scott looked confused. He was a wolf, wasn't that all the protection needed?

Emery and Derek looked at the school with wide eyes, Derek pulling Emery close to him looking around. It only took two minutes before Scott and Stiles walked out the school laughing.

"What the hell was that?!" Derek shouted. Stiles looked at Emery suprised to see her hear. "What are you trying to do attract the entire state to the school?"

"Sorry. I didn't know it would be that loud." Scott says although by he's demeanour says he's anything but sorry.

The wolves glared at Scott. He just endangered Derek and Emery and he doesn't even care.

"Yeah it was loud! And it was awesome!" Stiles states excitedly.

"Shut up!" Derek and Emery shouted in sync.

"Don't be such a sourwolf." Stiles said looking at Derek.

"You've endangered all of us and you say that!" Derek snapped glaring at the teen. Stiles sunk down in his seat, not looking at anyone.

"What'd you do with him?" Scott asked angrily pushing past Emery and Derek, heading to Derek car.

"What?" Derek asked looking into the car and seeing Deaton gone.

"Why would Deaton be in your car Derek?" Talia asked her son confused.

Derek shrugged, "I don't know." He barely talked to the guy, he didn't know why he would be in his car.

Scott glared at Derek, he better have not done anything to his boss.

"I didn't do anything..." Derek told him, before the alpha shoves his claws in Derek's chest.

"DEREK!" Talia, Noah, Laura and Cora screamed in horror.

Derek stared in shock and fear, not fighting the hands pulling him into the middle of a hug.

Emery eye's widen in horror "Derek!" Emery shouted, as the alpha tossed him away. Her eyes turned a bright gold and she lunched herself at the alpha but arms wrapping around her waist pulled her to the school. 

Chapter Text

Emery and Peter stared at the screen in disbelief and anger. Peter didn't understand why he would attack Derek like that. Emery wanted to hurt the person who held her from getting to Derek. 

"What the hell was that!" Emery yelled. Everyone turned to see the two at the door, realizing they caught the last few minutes of the last episode. 

"Sapphire-" Noah tried to calm her down, but Emery rushed past him, throwing herself into Derek arms, Peter following right behind, wrapping both of them up, holding them tightly. 

No one said anything,   Noah going back to Talia, holding her tightly, whispering reassurances in her ear that Derek was still with them. Cora and Laura wrapped their arms around Derek from behind, holding him tightly that he almost chokes, making sure to not disturb Peter and Emery 

Odessa gave the group a few minutes, before she had everyone sit back down and started the 'show' again. 

The boys quickly slam the doors shut as Emery tore herself away from Stiles grip. "You son of-" Emery smacked Stiles. 

"Ow!" Stiles glared at him. 

"Deserved." Lydia nodded once. 

"What!" Stiles gasped. 

"You held her back." Allison pointed out, "What did you expect?" She shrugged. 

"What the fuck do you think you're doing!" Emery shouted at them, waving a hand at the door. A light blue barrier formed between the door and them. It would hold for an hour. "If Derek dies? It's on you!" Emery said harshly. 

The alpha suddenly slammed into the door, making the boys scream and Emery jump. 

"Come on." Emery rushed down the hall, the boys behind her. 

ŦŦŦŦ

Emery, Scott and Stiles ran into an empty classroom. 

"What do we do?" Stiles whispered harshly. 

Emery moved away from the boys,  trying to breath. Her chest felt tight, air couldn't reach her lungs, her hands were shaking, the classroom became burly. Emery leaned against one of the walls, as ringing filled her ears. 

Laura sat up straight, "What's going on?" 

"Panic attack." Emery told her sister. 

It was a little shocking, Emery hadn't had a panic attack in two years. Seeing Derek 'death' must have triggered an attack. 

Emery hearing went in and out. She understood a little of what they were talking about. 

"Derek.... dead." 

That only made Emery panic attack worse. "Stop." Emery whispered, sliding down the wall, her legs pulled to her chest, hands gripping her knees. 

"Impaled. . . thrown across..."

"Stop." Emery gasped, tears falling down her face. 

"Blood spurted out of his mouth." 

Emery closed her eyes tightly. 

"Can't you two see your only making it worse!" Allison snapped at Scott and Stiles. "I mean, god, Emery is sitting there crying and you two can't even keep your mouths shut!" 

"I-I-" Stiles stuttered, looking at Emery who was holding Derek tightly. He felt bad, he knew how panic attacks could escalate quickly when put in more emotional distress and he did nothing but make it worse. 

"STOP!" Emery yelled, her magic sending a shockwave through the room. The windows shattered. Some desks flipped over, others hit the wall. Scott and Stiles were thrown to the floor groaning in pain. 

"Holy-" 

Some jumped from the loud noise of the glass shattering. Scott and Stiles stared at the screen surprised, with just one word, Emery did all that damage. How many times did they mess with Emery and she could have done that without another word.  

Emery gasped for breath, trying to get air in her lungs as she sobbed. 

Derek was dead. He was dead. The alpha killed him, and he wasn't coming back. 

Dead. Dead. Dead. Dead. 

Derek tightened his hold on Emery. Peter rubbed her back gently, looking at Laura who shrugged. She didn't know what was going on, Laura knew Peter would never willingly hurt his family. 

Laura knew Peter killing her was because he didn't recognize her. She hasn't spent time in Beacon Hills, the bond between them was weak. Peter's wolf was just protecting it's home. 

It was getting harder to breath, Emery head was hurting and Emery could feel it pounding behind her eyes. The edges of her vision turned black the longer Emery panicked. Emery knew what to do to calm an attack, but she couldn't focus on the techniques she was taught. The only thought playing in her mind was, Derek is dead. 

Slowly Emery lost consciousness, the last thing she heard and saw was the roar of the alpha and Scott and Stiles running out the room before everything went black.

"Did they-?" Lydia looked at Allison. 

"They better not have." Allison said clenching her jaw. 

ŦŦŦŦ

Scott and Stiles, got up from the floor, looking around the destroyed room, before looking at Emery when they heard her crying. 

"Emery, what's wrong?" Stiles looked at his sister, not knowing what to do. He never saw her have a panic attack before, he didn't know how to help. Stiles thought he was the only one in their family to get them, looks like he was wrong. 

Noah glanced at Stiles. He knew all about his son's panic attacks, just like he knew about his daughters. Noah wanted to help Stiles, every single time he heard Stiles panicking he wanted to help and he tried, lord knows he tried, but Stiles never let him help. 

The few times he tried, Stiles would snap at him, refuse to let him anywhere near and Noah gets it, he does, but he couldn't help someone who didn't want the help. The attacks stopped a year after Claudia's death, so Noah didn't have to worry about it but he still felt hurt that Stiles didn't allow him to be there. 

Stiles slowly walked closer towards his sister, Scott tackled him to the floor, a loud bang filled the room. The two boys looked up seeing Stiles Jeep engine on the floor. The boys turned to the window, scrambling to their feet as the alpha appeared. 

The alpha roared at them. Stiles and Scott stumbled over their feet, rushing out the room. 

"You left her!" The room yelled at the boys. 

"I-we-I-" Scott stuttered, "Ow!" Scott held his head as Melissa smacked him. 

"I cannot believe you would leave Emery passed out with the alpha!" Melissa yelled at her son. 

"Mom-" 

"No!" Melissa shook her head. "I don't even know you anymore." Melissa shook her head. 

Stiles looked at his dad, and flinched a little at the angry and disappointed look he was giving him. 

"Dad, I-" 

Noah only shook his head, holding Talia tighter, turning back to the screen. 

The alpha climbed through the window, growling as he made his way towards Emery. 

The Hales, tensed wondering if the alpha was going to hurt Emery.  Peter and Laura hoped the alpha didn't attack Emery. 

The alpha stopped in front of her body, bending down over her. Rumbling sounded from the alphas chest, a claw tip tracing down Emery face, pushing a strand of hair away from her face. 

ŦŦŦŦ

Allison waited outside her house by the curb, on the phone with Lydia. "She was supposed to be 20 minutes ago. Is she ever this late?" 

"No. The most is 5 minutes. Never 20. We're pulling up now." 

Lydia, Jackson, Allison and Emery were supposed to go to the movies tonight. Emery was going to pick up Allison since her car was in the shop but she never showed. Allison tried calling calling her but Emery phone kept going to voicemail. 

Allison bit her lip. "She's still out then." Allison muttered. 

"And the alpha is still there." Cora shook her head trying to hide her nerves about her sister being alone with the alpha. Emery couldn't protect herself. What would the alpha do? Would it hurt her? Would it kill her? Cora didn't want to think about a world without Emery. 

Jackson car pulled up to the curb, "Get in." Lydia got out the car, pulling up the seat. Allison crawled in the back, Lydia getting in and shutting the door. "Do you know where Emery was last?" Lydia asked. 

Allison leaned forward, popping her head in between the two, "She said she was staying late to practice a few drills and tumbling." 

Jackson nodded and started the car, heading towards the school. 

Chris didn't know wether do be glad Allison was going to get Emery, or scared that Allison was going to get Emery. 

One on hand, the three of them could find Emery and get her to the hospital. On the other hand, the three of them could get stuck in the school with the alpha. 

Chapter Text

Lydia, Allison, and Jackson pulled into the school parking lot. "Still nothing?" Jackson asked. 

Allison shook her head, pulling her phone back. "Voicemail again." 

Lydia sighed looking around as they got out of the car pausing when she saw the broken chain and bolt cutters on the ground. "Guys!" Allison and Jackson turned to her. "I don't think Emery's alone here." Lydia pointed towards the broken chain. 

Chris didn't know what to feel. One part wanted Allison to leave with Jackson and Lydia, leave and don't step foot into the school. The other part wanted Allison and the others to find Emery and get her out of the school since her so-called brother and his friend left her to the alpha. 

Peter prayed to every God out there he didn't hurt Emery. He couldn't live with himself he hurt his mate. 

Jackson looked around the parking lot, spotting two cars. One he doesn't know and one he knows very well. "And I think I know who's in there." Jackson stared at the blue Jeep. 

"Well," Lydia huffed making her way to the school. 

"Lydia, what are you doing?" Allison hissed. 

"If Emery's in there with those two, something has to be wrong." Lydia told Allison going up the stairs. Allison and Jackson shared a look, they knew something was wrong, but they could let their girlfriend and friend go in there alone to find their other best friend. 

"Come on." Allison muttered stalking up to the school, Jackson on his hills. 

Emery bit her lip. "I don't know whether to be thankful you guys are going into a dark school for me, or horrifed that you guys are going into a dark school for me." Emery said glancing towards Lydia and Allison. 

Allison shrugged. Lydia smiled. "Just be glad." 

Emery chuckled. "Glad it is." Emery smiled at the girls. "Thank you." She said greatfully. 

ŦŦŦŦ

Scott and Stiles ran down the hallway breathing heavily. "Scott, stop." Stiles panted leaning against a locker. Scott stopped, turning to face him. 

"Stiles come on, we have to go." 

"Go where?" Stiles hissed, standing up straight. "The alpha's locked us in here. He just killed the janitor and we have no clue where Emery is right now. The alpha could have killed her for all we know." Stiles spat out, running a hand over his head. 

His sister could be dead right now and he left her. He left her alone in a room while she was having a panic attack. 

Stiles looked down feeling disappointed in himself. He knew Emery and him aren't close, but he also knew Emery would have never left him behind, ever but that's exactly what his future self did. 

Derek tightened his hold on Emery, switching between glaring at on screen Stiles and room Stiles. He hated that his future self wasn't there to protect his girl and now he had to hope Jackson, Lydia and Allison find Emery before it's too late. 

"Look I'm sorry about Emery but-" Scott cut himself off tilting his head. "Do you hear that?" 

Stiles frowned, "Hear what?" 

"Someone's here." 

"Emery?" Stiles asked hopeful but Scott shook his head. "Then who?" Stiles wondered how was dumb enough to come to school during the night. 

"You are." Lydia muttered shaking her head. 

"You want to the school too." Scott shot back. 

"To find Emery. If she wasn't there we wouldn't be there." Lydia snapped, glaring at the human.

Scott took a moment to really listen and his eyes went wide with panic. "Allison!" Scott took down the hall. 

"Scott!" Stiles yelled running after him. 

Scott rushed down the hall, turning into the stair way, Stiles followed a few steps back trying to keep up with Scott's fast speed. The two boys bursts through the doors leading to the lobby. 

"AHH!" Lydia and Allison screamed spinning around, Jackson jumped in front of the two girls. Scott and Stiles stopped in front of the three, Stiles looking at the confused wondering why they were here while Scott had eyes for Allison. 

"Allison, what are you doing here?" Scott asked concerned. 

Allison held her chest, glaring at the boy. "What am I doing here? What are you two doing here?" Allison snapped, pointing her phone flashlight at him. "And where's Emery? We've been looking for her." Allison added. 

"Um... She's - uh..." Stiles panted trying to catch his breath. 

"You need to work out more." Noah shook his head. 

"I work out." Stiles defended himself. 

Emery snorted, "Don't lie to yourself." Stiles glared at her. It barley did anything to Emery. She faced out of control wolves on a full moon, her brother weak glare wasn't scary at all. "Glaring makes you look like a wounded puppy." Emery told him. 

Stiles huffed leaning back in his seat, "I don't look like a wounded puppy." Stiles muttered, then hesitated, "Do I?" He asked Scott. 

"Of course not." Scott shook his head. 

Stiles nodded, smiling a little. 

"Where is she?!" Lydia snapped. 

"We don't know." 

Allison, Lydia and Jackson stared at the two boys like they lost their minds. "What the hell do you mean you don't know?!" Jackson snapped, "Emery's phone says shes here." Jackson showed them Find my friend on his phone. Emery phone was clearly still at the school so where the hell was the girl. 

"They have you on find my friend?" Stiles asked Emery. 

"Duh." 

"But I don't." Stiles said hurt. He has Scott but he doesn't have anyone else. 

"Well you would need friends for that." Cora said snidly. 

 Before either boy could come up with an excuse as to why Emery wasn't with them, loud, huge footsteps were heard from above them. Jackson pulled Lydia and Allison close to him as Scott and Stiles backed up. 

The room became even more tense with the alpha literally right above the kids. Melissa, Noah and Chris hoped their kids get out there alive. 

"Run!" Scott yelled. 

The group of five rushed out the lobby door just as the roof gave away and the alpha fell through. 

ŦŦŦŦ

The group ran through a door, leading them to the cafeteria. Jackson and the girls leaned against the door keeping it shut as Scott broke away grabbing one end of a table. "Help me get this in front of the door." Scott told Jackson. 

The two slid a table in front of the door after Allison and Lydia moved to the side. "What was that? Guys, what was that?" Allison asked scared, watching Scott stack chairs on and around the table. 

"What came out of the ceiling?" Lydia asked frightened. 

Peter pressed his lips. Me, he thought grimly. 

Laura grabbed his hand, squeezing it slightly. 

"Will you just help me? The chair - stack the chairs." Scott tells them as he continues. The three teens jump in helping as Stiles looks around and notices a giant flaw in their plan. 

"Guys! Stop, wait a second." Stiles tries to get their attention but the four ignore him. "Hello! Can we all just stop!" Stiles yelled. The four turned to him. "Okay nice work." Stiles huffed. "Really beautiful job, everyone. Now . . . what should we do about the twenty-foot wall of windows?!" Stiles threw his hands out motioning to the windows. 

"Oh God." Cora muttered. 

"We had to run to the cafeteria." Allison groaned. 

The parents in the room took deep calming breaths trying not the freak out about the major safey flaw that their kids are in right now. It doesn't help that they still had no clue where Emery was. 

Scott looks at the window with a groan dropping the chair he was holding as the three teens stepped away from the door. 

"Can somebody please explain to me what's going on, because I'm freaking out here, and I would like to know why." Allison said freaking out. "Guys?" Allison pressed when neither boy answered. 

Scott shakes his head walking towards a table to collect his thoughts. Stiles seeing he wasn't going to answer spoke up "Someone killed the janitor"

"What?" Lydia asked, her voice going higher.

Stiles nods "Yeah, the janitor's dead." 

"Wow be more blunt." Laura shook her head. 

Lydia whimpered, stepping closer to Jackson as Allison looked between Scott and Stiles in disbelief. "What he's talking about? Is this a joke?" 

Scott kept his back to the group. 

"What? Who killed him?" Jackson asked, pulling Lydia into his arms. "And where's Emery!? What happened to her?"  

Stiles sighed, running his hand over his head, his other hand on his hip. "We, we had too-" 

"To what? Spit it out, Stilinski." 

"We left her!" Stiles yelled. 

The cafeteria fell into a tense silence. Allison took a step back, moving away from the boys. Jackson handed Lydia over to Allison stalking forward grabbing the front of Stiles shirt. "What the hell do you mean you left her?!" Jackson roared shaking Stiles. 

The wolves flinched a little at the loud yelling but also smiled seeing how protective Jackson was over their Emery. Emery deserved to have a brother who actually gave a crap about her and Jackson seemed to be a good one. 

As long as he never hurts her, they could bring him into the family. 

Stiles on the other hand swallowed hard seeing Jackson shaking him like he was a wet paper. God, he really did need to work out if he wanted to be in the FBI. 

Scott jumped forward pushing Jackson away from his best friend. 

Wow, first good thing Scott did for Stiles. Emery thought. 

"Back away." Scott ordered. 

"Shut up." Jackson snapped, moving forward again but Lydia and Allison grabbed his arms pulling him back. They didn't want a fight to break out while there's a killer out there and Emery with it. 

"Jax, we need to call the police." Allison told her friend trying to calm him down. "We call the police and they can find Emery." 

Jackson calmed down a little, chest heaving from anger but nodded. "Yeah. Yeah call the cops." Jackson agreed. 

"No." Stiles cut in right away. He didn't want his dad in danger. They might not be close but he didn't want his dad anywhere near this. It slipped his mind that his father knew about the supernatural. 

Noah shook his head, "Yes call the police. Call me. Just call someone." Noah said to the screen. 

Stiles frowned. Couldn't his dad see that he just wanted him safe. They may not be close but Stiles still wanted him safe. 

The three looked at Stiles like he was stupid. "What do you mean, 'no'?" Jackson asked incredulously. 

"I mean, no. You wanna hear it in Spanish?" he asks, taking a step forward "No" he tells him with a Spanish accent. Stiles rubs the back of his neck, taking a quick look at who moved away from the group again. "Look the killer is still out there and-" 

"And so is Emery!" Allison yelled at the Stilinski boy. "You're sister is out there! With a killer whoes doing god knows what and you're telling us not to call the police?!" Allison asked incredulously. 

Stiles flinched back. It's not like he wanted his sister in danger! But he also didn't want his dad anywhere near the school and Emery had powers! She could take care of herself - but if she was still out then she couldn't. Oh God what if Emery's gone already - what if - 

Emery pressed her lips not knowing what to feel. "I get . . . not wanting dad in danger. . ." Emery said slowly not looking away from the screen but she could feel the eyes on her. "But you can't keep him away and you can't stop them from getting help . . ." Emery looked at Stiles. "You can't stop them from getting me help." 

Emery throat felt tight at the thought of Stiles letting her stay out there with the alpha. An alpha that has already killed Laura, Derek and more people. She knew Stiles didn't like her, she didn't like him much either but it didn't make it easier to digust. 

Stiles swallowed, "I wasn't telling them not to go. I was-" 

"You were." Emery cut him off. "You were telling them not to get me help. But you don't know them at all, don't know Jackson at all if you think he'd listen to you. He's my brother and he'd never let me go." 

Stiles clenched his jaw. He was Emery's brother not Jackson! Why does Jackson keep coming between them?! 

"I'm calling." Lydia said cutting Stiles train of thought. 

"No, Lydia, would you just hold on a sec-" Stiles tries to get her to stop but Jackson stepped in front of him, pushing him back a little. "Yes, we're at Beacon Hills HIgh School. We're trapped, and we need to-" Lydia pasued, frowning. "But- -" Lydia pulled the phone away, mouth agape. "She hung up on me." She tells the group. 

"What?!" The Stilinski's yelled. 

"That's not legal, is it?" Allison asked shocked. 

Noah shook his head, "No it's not and when I find out who hung up they'll be fired." Noah promised. His children are stuck in the school with a dead body and the 9-1-1 operator dared to hang up! 

"The police hung up on you?" Allison asked wide-eyed as Lydia nodded. 

"She said they got a top warning them about a prank call about a break-in at the high school. She said if I called again that they're gonna trace it and have me arrested" Lydia explains.

"Well, they're getting fired" Noah shakes his head "We don't ever hang up on a call no matter if there was a tip of a prank call."

"Okay, so call again" Allison told the girl but Stiles shook his head.

"No, they won't trace the call. They'll send a car to your house before sending anyone here" he tells them knowing all the protocols.

"What? What-what is this? Who is trying to kill us? Why is he killing anyone?" Allison asked. Stiles looked at Scott making the three look at him as well. 

"Why's everyone looking at me?" he asked anxiously. 

"Do you know anything about this?" Lydia asked voice shaking. 

Scott shook his head, "No. No I-" 

"Why are you two even here?" Jackson suddenly asked. "What made you come here? Emery was here practicing, why are you two here now?" He narrowed his eyes at the boys. 

Cora leaned back in her seat a little amused, "Let's see how they play this." Allison rolled her eyes fondly at the she-wolf. 

Scott looked away from them as Stiles pressed his lips. "W-we . . . need to talk to Emery." Stiles blurted out. The three looked at him not quite believing him. "We did. We needed her help and knew she was here." 

Lie. They had no idea she was here and didn't need her help but how could Scott or Stiles explain they came here to call a werewolf alpha to prove Scott's boss was innocent and ended up with the alpha killing Derek Hale, throwing a car battery through a window and leaving Emery with the alpha as well? No way without being sent to the loony bin. 

The room was quite. Everyone looking at each other not knowing what to say because the truth was clear. If they didn't know about the Supernatural they would have thought the two boys were crazy. 

It just didn't sound real and without proof none of them would believe it unless they were born into the Supernatural world. 

"Yeah, I would have been worried." Melissa muttered nodding a little. 

The others muttered in agreement. 

"Okay that's it." Jackson shook his head. "We need to get out of here and find Emery." 

"We can't leave-" Scott tried but Allison snapped at him. 

"Get this through your head McCall! Our friend is out there with a killer and we're not going to spend another second in here while she's out there." Scott stepped back shocked that Allison would snap at him. 

He just wants her safe and going out there wasn't safe. 

Allison glared at Scott. "You're not my boyfriend. You're not even my friend. I can protect myself." 

Scott frowned, leaning back his seat. So they weren't dating, so what? It doesn't matter, they'll be together soon, he knew it. 

"Come on, there's has to be a way-" The doors rattled cutting Lydia off. Everyone looked over, Jackson grabbing Lydia and Allison pushing them behind him. 

The room became tense once more knowing it was the alpha trying to get in. 

Peter silently wondered what he was doing. Why was he going after teens? Was it because Scott called out to him? He didn't know. All Peter wanted was to see Emery and make sure she was okay. 

Stiles looked around searching for any exit. "The kitchen, they have stairs in the back." Stiles told them. 

"Which only goes up." Scott reminded him. 

Stiles gives him a stern look. "Up is better than here." 

The group took off running just as the alpha burst through the doors. 

The teens let out sighs of relief seeing the escaped but none were fully calm knowing Emery wasn't there with them. 

ŦŦŦŦ

The group piled into an empty chemistry classroom. Scott locks the door and Jackson shoves a chair under the handle, each kid pressed their backs to the door, hands covering their mouths.

A shadow stops in front of the door for a few seconds before it starts walking away. 

The Hales shared confused looks. The alpha clearly knew the kids were in there, the scents and fast heartbeats would have been heard even by a newbe wolf. 

"What's his angle?" Talia muttered leaning on Noah. 

Noah sighed shaking his head. "I have no idea." 

"Okay, okay we need to get out of here-" Stiles started to say but Lydia gasped running across the room. 

"Emery!" Lydia whispered shouted. 

Everyone sat up straighter, watching the screen intently. 

Emery laid across the teacher desk, head bleeding from a cut on her forehead. Small cuts on her hands from the glass window. Other then that, Emery didn't seem harmed in anyway. Her chest raised up and down in small breathes that made Jackson, Allison and Lydia calm down. 

"Oh thank god." Noah muttered. 

Talia smiled in relief happy her daughter was safe enough but wondered how Emery got from the classroom on the ground floor, to a classroom on the second floor. 

Peter relaxed in his seat, seeing his mate was safe. Laura squeezed his hand a small smile on her face. She knew Peter didn't do anything to Emery but she was still scared when they hadn't seen her at all. 

"Oh God." Allison muttered rushing over with Jackson. "What happened to her?" Allison whispered gently tilting Emery head, squinting her eyes at the cut. "Is that glass?" 

Jackson leaned over, "I think so." 

"Should we take it out?" Allison asked. 

Lydia shook her head, "No. But we should..." Lydia looked around seeing Emery bag thrown near some desks. "Check for her phone." Lydia grabbed the bag rummaging through it, before finding Emery's phone. 

"Why do you need her phone?" Scott asked confused. 

Stiles could only stare at his bleeding sister on the table and felt the air leave his lungs. He left his sister alone in that room and by God knows how, she made it up here. Hurt but alive. 

Stiles closed his eyes, letting out a slow breath. Seeing his sister bleeding on the table rocked him to the core more than he thought it would. He knew he wasn't the best brother but he never thought he would leave Emery alone when there was someone who was trying to kill them. 

He looked at Emery and noticed with a pang that she didn't look surprised at what he did or what he's feeling. And that hurt more than Stiles thought it would. 

Lydia unlocked Emery's phone, pulling up her contants. "To call her dad." Lydia answered as the phone dailed. 

It rang twice before Noah picked up. "Hey Sapphire, everything okay?" 

Lydia sighed in relief, "Papa Stilinski." Lydia answered, voice shaking with fear and relief. They finally had contant with someone. 

"Lydia? What are you doing with Sapphire's phone? Where is she?" 

"We're at the High school. We need help someone . . . someone's here trying to kill us. Emery's hurt she needs a hospital." 

"Lydia I'm on my way right now. Just stay where you are, okay honey?" 

Lydia nodded, "Okay." The call dropped. Lydia turned to the others, "Noah's on his way here." Allison and Jackson sighed in relief while Stiles frowned worriedly. What if something happened to his father? He wanted his dad to stay away but he knew now that his dad knew Emery was hurt he wouldn't be staying away. 

Noah nodded, "Of course I wouldn't." He would never, ever stay away when he hears one of his kids are hurt. Sapphire or Stiles. Their both his kids and while Stiles pulls away, Noah will never not love him. 

Jackson, Allison and Lydia surrounded Emery keeping Scott and Stiles on the outter circle. Neither boy tried getting closer, just kept a look out for the alpha. 

Help was coming and that's all they needed to know. 

The screen went black. 

"Hey!" 

"What happened!?" 

"We need to know?" 

Odessa raised a hand, silencing everyone with a flick of her wrist. "That's better." Odessa smirked before sighing at the glares she got. "The police showed up. The alpha left soon after you guys enterned the room. Emery was taken to the hospital." 

"And Derek?" Talia asked tensely. 

Odessa smirked, "That you have to wait and see." The glares she got made her laugh.
