Trial and error

'And the flames die down'

My head was throbbing and I couldn't even force my eyes opened. Great coughs racked my body as my voice remained hoarse.

My vision was blury but I still caught vision of movement beside me. I could feel my self moving in and out of consciousness. The first thing I noticed, was that I was leaning agianst a locker, in the school hallway. The smell of gasoline caught my nose whilst I scrunched it up in disgust.

My eyes flutter open as I squinted a bit from the strong scent that burned my eyes.

I began to move up slowly as my body slowly accepted to cooperate. I squint my eyes to try and recognise the figures in from of me. The noise of fighting was heard and I was almost scared to get my vision back.

I sighed in relief as I was met by Scotts face. I also realised another figure behind him which revealed Derek Hale, whilst the image of him holding my brothers neck crossed my mind.

I snapped out of it as I watch another unfamiliar face emerge form behind him. She was a young beautiful women with two visible large claw marks on her face.

I did not want to hear that story any time soon.

My breathing was ragged as my hair was wet from what I knew was probably the gasoline. My eyes caught an unconscious man on the ground and I couldn't help but widen my eyes in horror.

In this moment I didn't even want to know what happened.

"Liam! Scott! Lux!" A panicked voice yelled, what the acting of heels were heard.

April soon came into view as she immediately picked Liam up from beside me who still looked out of it, as Malia slowly started to pull herself up.

"What happened." I found my self questioning before my brain could catch up.

"Don't worry." Scott whispered as he slipped, his arm around my waist to keep me standing.

I narrowed my eyes at the hallway and then at Scott. Why wasn't he going to tell me? My head throbbed and felt like a chore to lift it up in the right position, which distracted me from asking more questions.

Liam and I's, eyes met and I knew it was showing the same emotion. Fear. I could feel that my brother had enough, always being afraid of our lives being at stake.

We were both teenagers. We weren't ready for this.

But to be honest are you every ready to become, what we are today.

We all started to leave one by one, until I felt an arm hold me back.

"Lux."

I turned around, but quickly felt sick by doing so, I was met by April with a worried facial expression.

As I racked my brain for previous memories of what happened before, flashes through my mind that I almost cringed.

I quickly pulled my hand away from giving her a slight shock look.

"I should leave."

-
"What happened out there Scott?"

We all entered the McCall household as Liam, April, Scott and I entered the living room.

Liam and I sat on the couch, as April and Scott sat opposite us which I was grateful for.

"We-." Scott stated. But was cut by his phone. I nearly had the urge to slap him when I saw the look of relief flash across face.

He was probably even going to make up some lie, to not scare us.

"It's Stiles." He mentioned as he got up before we could stop him.

"Well did you know what happend?" I asked April. I didn't mean to sound harsh, I was just curious.

I mean one minute I'm having fun and then next thing, everything goes black and I wake up in the school hallway.

April rolled her eyes. "Im as much in the dark, as you are." She explained as she glance at both me and my brother who had been quiet for some time, for some reason.

I shook my head in disbelief."You must have some clue."

She sighed as she played withh her fingers that laid on her lap."I should have noticed that assassin." She mumbled under breath, probably not meaning for me and Liam to hear.

As I nearly got a whiplash from trying to look at Liam and her at the same time.

"What the hell are you talking about." I accused as she narrowed her eyes at him.

"Don't pin me as the bad person here Lux. Who's the one lying. Who's the one constantly lying." She questioned as she stood up in fury.

I quickly followed her move as I realised what she was going to say.

"Don't April!"

Liam also stood up as I held my gaze on April. "If you guys are talking about what I think your talking and than I probably already know." Liam quickly added.

It took us all a bit of time, to register what he said, including Liam.

"You know?" I asked warily as he watched me carefully.

He nodded at me. "Oh I know."

I gaped at me. How did he know about me dying. I looked over at April but she also had a shock expression written on her face.

Wait was it Stiles!

Because of it was-

"Well what do you think?" I questioned warily, analysing every move he made. But he didn't seem disappointed or angry.

Liam sighed. "To be honest. I'm not sure if I care. I mean I was bit shocked but never the less, we should just for get about it.

April gaped at him as I just stood there Silent.

"How can you be ok with it!" She exclaimed at my brother in confusion.

"Hey! I should be the one mad you not you be mad at me." Liam exclaimed as his girlfriend as he pointed in the direction of who he was talking about.

"Ok. I apologise for not telling you, but it wasn't my choice. But I cant believe you can be so inconsiderate about this!" April yelled back, you could see the fury burn in her eyes as I was more speechless.

I mean this what I wanted right. I didn't want to tell him because I didn't want him to freak out, and now he knows and he is not freaking out.

Thats a good thing right? Does that mean he doesn't care or his just taking lightly.

"Inconsiderate how am I being inconsiderate. In fact I'm being the best brother slash boyfriend ever!"

April sent daggers at him. I'm pretty sure if she did have one of her weapons she would have used it against Liam.

I still stood there speechless. "Wow you seriously don't have a heart. Your twin sister is dying and you don't even care.

Everything then became silent as I sucked in breath. The silence was deafening to my ears, I could faintly hear their heartbeats, as Liam shook his head.

"What? Dying what the hell are you talking about." He questioned April, as his eyebrow furrowed in complete and utter confusion.

Kind of like Harry when they told him he was wizard.

April looked at him flabbergasted. "W-what are you talking about." She asked using his own question back at him whilst her arms folded and casted me a glance.

I sent her a worried look as I stepped closer to the two.

"I'm talking about the make out session you had with my sister! what the hell are you talking about?" Liam exclaimed as he gestured towards me.

"It wasn't a make out session." I couldn't help but mutter.

"Y-you didn't know Lux was d-dying did you?" April question stuttering at the new found information.

I avoided her look as I watched Liam's reaction rapidly change.

Liam narrowed his eyes at us in irritation. "No!"

I started to get scared as his breathing became ragged. "I didn't understand."

I glanced at April, as she gave me a sorry look which I accepted. "Liam. I'm dying." I awkwardly announced, as sighed from being so tired and confused about the while thing.

"From what! Your a werewolf what could you possibly be dying from."

I shook my head. "Liam I'm not..... A werewolf. You are but I'm not." I explained lazily.

Liam facial expression didnt change as he looked up at me. His eyes going right up as if glaring at me since he was sitting and I was currently standing. "I get you weren't bitten but because were twins we both were affected." He addressed.

"I'm part werewolf yea, but not a full one and because of that my body cant handle the transition and my bodies failing. Liam. No one has survived what I'm going through."

Liam shook his head in disbelief and I could tell he was forcing his tears away. "What are you going through. You never talk to me anymore and I thought we were at least civil."

"We are civil." I assured him.

"Yea right." Be answers back sarcastically. "Perfect twin." he muttered as I gaped at him.

"Don't you dare!"

"What Lux! I have no idea why your messing with my head like this! and you cant deny that your perfect. It because of me your a werewolf. It because of me we nearly got killed today. It's never your fault."

"Is this even nessary right now. You done make sense. This is totally uncalled for!" I stated as I was his eyes turn to fury and embarrassment.

What was he embarrassed for?

"You know sometimes I watch my self in the mirror and try to see if I have at least a bit of your light but not at all, Im filled with complete darkness. I'm the Bad Flavour your always the good one and lucky one! and don't for get im the one with I E D."

"Then it's a good thing I'm dying isnt it. Then you wont have a perfect twin you can compare your self to." I screamed as I forced my self not to cry. I never knew he felt like this before. Unwanted was growing in me and also a guilt that I never noticed this about my own twin.

A flicker of emotion flashed in his eyes and imdiately vanished as if he forced his mind to think I wasn't dying. It almost made me cringe.

"It's true Liam and im sorry I didn't tell you." I whispered lastly, knowing we probably didn't mean anything we said, it was just the rush of the andrlain and the fear we had of being burnt alive not long ago.

And the fact we were supernatrual beings.

It was j-just everything.

He clenched his jaw as his lips parted to speak. "How long have you known?"

"Like a week. I wanted to tell you." I stated as I watch him stand up from his seat.

"What type of sick joke is this Lux!"

"She's telling the truth." April answered, reminding me she was still in the room.

Liam quickly snapped back at her as he glared at April in fury. "And you knew."

"Dont! Liam don't be angry at her be angry at me. I told her not to tell anybody."

Liam still didn't look like he was believing it, almost as if he was into shock. I obviously understand and I feel terrible but I've accepted what was going to happen.

"My twins not dying." He addressed April as I could now see tears fall down her face.

It broke me to see them like this. This is why I wanted no one to know.

My eyes stared to burn as tears cloud my vision. I didn't know I was crying until I felt Liam hug me.

"I'm sorry." I whispered.

"You don't need to be sorry because your not dying. There's no way in hell im letting that happen."

I cried harder at his response and before I knew it, Scott's voice echoed into the air.

I turned around, pulling out of the hug to watch as the older McCall turned off his phone. I shook with fear, not being able to handle another person finding out.

Not only that. The fact that Scott was in fact my cure. And I had no doubt that April would have pointed that out.

I didn't want the bite, I didn't want the cure. I accepted what was going happen, and everything happens for a reason right. I mean there's a reason Scott's a true alpha.

Ive seen it with my own eyes, he is a good person and weirdly I'm inspired by him and thats how I know when April tells him, my cure he wouldn't heistate to cure me just like he didn't hesitate to save Liam form falling off that building even though it might change his life.

Which it did.

But at least he still alive.

"What's going on?"
Scott asked warily as his eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

I did the only thing that was appropriate in this situation.

I ran.

Before any one could even blink or say cure. I was out of sight.

The cold air hit my cheeks, whilst I ran faster, the distant echo's of my name were heard as I didn't hesitate to speed up.

I ran as fast as my legs could take me and it was fast. I never used my abilities like this before, but I felt invincible. It was sensational.

The speed of a hybrid was in insane. It was just unlucky that I didn't have time to cherish the feeling.

I watched as my surroundings got darker, the sky was decorated by the tall dark trees whilst the rustle of trees whistled into the air.

I slowed down my pace, as the wind picked up, whilst everything starts to become hard to see as the leaves crumble beneath me.

The powerful wind made it almost hard to breath as the tree looked like they were going to snap from the pressure.

I didn't feel scared, just curious. I instantly let my eyes glow as I scanned the trees of the woods.

All of the sudden I had a burning sensation in my throat, that was forcing me to scream.

But I used all I had to stop the urge. Whispers filled my head as I kneeled down, my hands covering my ears.

Derek
Derek
Hale.

His name chanted in my head, like a never ending lullaby. I had to greet my teeth from screaming knowing the others would probably would have found me. I had learned to use my Kanima abilities that I used as an advantage to hide my scent knowing Kanima's didn't have scents.

So the others wont be able to track me.

The only thing I couldn't block out was the connection, I had with my twin brother.

I don't think anything can block that out.

Lydia suddenly came to mind as I gritted my teeth. There had to be a way banshee's could communicate.

I had to send her this message and she could warn Derek since I'm not able to.

My mind suddenly clicked and the whispers stopped, but I didn't miss the last word that had burned a mark in my head.

Death

"Lux!"

My eyes widen at my name an I quickly scrambled to my feet to run. They couldn't have found me that quick. I got up to only have the person right in front of me.

The blonde haired women was unfamiliar to me.

"Who are you?" I questioned as she sent me a smirk. I definitely got a bad feeling from her and a lot of death. Like she had witness some or even cause them.

"I go by the name Kate."

And before I knew it everything went black.
_______________

Hello lovelies omg you have no idea how many times this was rewritten because of the glitch I came to the point I literally screamed. So sorry if it isn't that could. I will edit this story when it's done.

Anyway what did you think of the second last chapter to BF.

Yes so April and Lux arent getting together it was i fact the music that caused her to do that.

Lux is such a complex character that I ship her with everybody but I think my stable ship righ now is probably Scott. After writing he was her cure I just couldn't help but aww at it.

What did you guys think of this chapter and the reveal?

Teaser: Even more of a big reveal next chapter and it's not only Scott that will be controlled.

The next chapter will skip to the last episode it'll make sense more in the next chapter.

Please check out my story Manipulate which I'll start since this will be finished.
