Ch. 4 - MAGIC BULLET

Start from the beginning
                                    

"I'll find them myself." Derek says and goes to walk away but Jackson grabbed his arm, "Hey, we're not done here." Derek grabs him by the neck and Jackson tried to pry his hands off but Derek was to strong. Finally Derek seems to realize what he's doing and releases him. Jackson doubles over, sucking in air. While the boy is bent forward, Derek notices puncture wounds on the back of his neck from the claws coming out
of Derek's fingertips. Still gasping, Jackson looks up to see Derek disappear around the corner.

Derek slumps against the wall and closes his eyes to focus on his hearing, soon enough he finds a voice that stood out from the rest, one that always stood out to him.

"So what's this I hear about Scott coming over?" Nova asked catching up to Allison and Lydia, "Scott's coming over? Tonight?" Lydia asked and Allison awkwardly rubbed her arm, "We're just studying together."

"Just studying" never ends with just studying. It's like - Getting into a hot tub - Somebody eventually cops a feel." Lydia said making Nova laugh. Well, so what are you saying?" Allison asked and Lydia shrugged.

"I'm just saying, you know, make sure he covers up. Hello, snow white! I'm talking about a condom." Lydia said and Nova laughed as Allison's face turned red, "Are you kidding? After one date?"

"Well, don't be a total prude. You
have to give him a little taste." Lydia said as if it's the most normal thing in the world, "How much is a little taste?"Allison asked shyly making Nova mad Lydia stop and look at her. "You really like him, don't
you?" Nova asked.

"Well, there's just something
different about him.

When I first got here I had this
plan: no boyfriends until college.
I move too often. But when I met
him, he was different. I can't
explain it." Allison said and Nova smiled and awed teasingly, "That's adorable. Well, I'll see you girls later. I gotta go before Stiles leaves without." Nova said then walked away.

She turned the corner and saw Derek slumped again the wall look deathly pale making her eyes widen as she ran over to him. "Derek? What the hell happened to you?" She said and he just let out a pained breath, holding his arm out. Carefully she pulled the sleeve of his leather jacket, cursing underneath her breath at what she saw. "Come on. We gotta get you out of here." She said putting his good arm around hee shoulder, wrapping her arms around his waist.

They went outside and she saw Stiles' car leaving, ignoring the annoyance she felt at the fact he was leaving her, she quickly and carefully lead Derek over to where Stiles was heading and stood in front of the jeep making Stiles stop.

As Scott runs over and Stiles get out of the jeep, Nova couldn't hold him up as Derek collapsed. "What are you doing here? Get up." Scott asks.

"Dude, he's not looking too good."

"I was shot." Derek gritted in pain. "Why aren't you healing?" Scott asked, "I can't. It was a different kind of bullet-"

"A silver bullet?" Stiles cut him off making Nova roll her eyes.

"No, you idiot-"

"Wait a second. That's what she
meant when she said 48 hours." Scott said making Nova's head snap over to him, "What? Who said 48 hours?" She asked. "The one who shot him." He answered

"Shit." She mumbled as Derek sucks in a breath, a wave of pain rolls through him. His eyes flickering from his natural forest green eyes to electric blue like a dying lightbulb. "What are you doing? Stop that."

"That's what I'm trying to tell you. I can't."

Scott grabs him, struggling to keep him from falling to the pavement, Nova helping him as students take notice of the hold up they were causing. Horns start beeping
behind Stiles's car. "Help us put him in your car." Scott said making Stiles look at him crazy.
