The Overlooked
They made to Derek's loft and Juliet told him everything that happened. And they wait for Jennifer to come.
"Derek? Derek, where are you?" Jennifer came in like it was her house.
"Right here." Derek said as he stepped out the shadows.
"Thank God." She ran to give him a hug. "Something happened at the recital. At the school. Okay, I need to tell you before you hear it, before you hear any of it from them."
"From who?"
"Scott, Juliet, Stiles. They're gonna tell you things. Things you can't believe. You have to trust me, okay? You trust me."
"What is it?"
"Promise you'll listen to me."
"I promise." She kissed Derek, making Juliet closer to attack her.
"They're already here, aren't they? So... they told you it was me? That I'm the one taking people?" The five of them walked out from the other room.
"We told him you're the one killing people." She told her.
"Oh, that's right. Committing human sacrifices? What, cutting their throats? Yeah, I probably do it on my lunch hour. That way, I can get back to teaching high school English the rest of the day. That makes perfect sense."
"Where's my dad?" Stiles cried.
"How should I know? Derek, tell me you don't believe this." She looked back at him.
"Do you know what happened to Stiles's father?" Derek looked at Juliet and took her side.
"No."
"Ask her why she almost killed Lydia." Juliet sounded angrier by the second.
"Lydia Martin? I don't know anything about that." She was playing dumb.
"What do you know?"
"I know that these boys, and Juliet, for whatever misguided reason, are filling your head with an absurd story. And one they can't prove, by the way."
"What if we can?" Juliet said and Scott brought up the mistletoe bottle.
"What is that?"
"My boss told me it's a poison and a cure... which means you can use it... and it can be used against you." Scott opened the bottle.
"Mistletoe?" Scott poured the bottle at her, she gasp and she turned into the real her. "Derek, wait, wait! You need me." Derek brought his claws out and grabbed her by the neck.
"What are you?"
"The only person who can save your sister. Call Peter. Call him!" She choked out.
"I'm gonna kill her-" Juliets eyes turned red and the Hastings held her back.
"Stop." She looked at Demetri. "You can do it later." She smirked. Derek was ahead, doing the dirty work for Juliet. Choking her harder.
"Derek. Derek, what are you doing?" Scott told him as he walked to him.
"Her life... it's in my hands!" She gasp. He picked her up.
"Stop. Derek, stop!" Stiles yelled.
"Stilinski, you'll never find him." She said. Juliet shrug and thought what she was gonna do.
"Derek. Derek!" Juliet yelled at him. He dropped her and she laughed.
"That's right. You need me. All of you." She looked at them all. They all drove to the hospital. They drove behind Stiles and Derek.
"She has a plan." She shook her head. "She's up to something. I don't know, something is just wrong about this."
"I swear Juliet, you can kill her but-" Isaiah said but Demetri turned at him as he drove.
"She's right, we proved it to Derek, but she still had a look like it didn't matter. You know, like it was all still going to plan." They made it to the hospital and ran inside.
"What's that?" She asked Stiles as she saw him carrying a bat.
"Well, you got claws. I got a bat." They ran in.
"Scott! Juliet! What are you doing here? The hospital's evacuating." Their mom said as she saw us.
"We're here for Cora." Scott told her.
"What, all of you?" She looked at them all. "Why does Stiles have my bat?" She pointed out.
"Mom, just trust me on this. You need to get out of here. Right now." Juliet told her.
"The building is supposed to be clear in 30 minutes. We've got two ambulances that are coming back. One's 10 minutes out, the other's 20. Cora needs to be on one of those. They'll be picking up in the basement garage."
"Got it. Okay." She nodded. They all walked to the elevator.
"You don't have to keep me on a leash, Derek. I'm going to help." Blake said to him. They all looked at her, first Scott, Stiles, the Hastings and Juliet, Juliet flashed her red eyes and fangs. They made it to the floor and got out. The lights were flickering.
"Derek."Scott said to him as he looked down the floor. They looked at the black blood and Peter came out sliding.
"We got a problem. Big problem." He said. They looked up to see the twins. Their alpha form.
"Help me." Derek turned and ran to fight them. Scott turned as well and so did the Hastings. Stiles went after Cora and took Peter with him. Juliet turned.
"Ethan, Aiden, stop!" She screamed out. "You don't know what you're doing. Ethan's and Aiden's alpha form."
"All we want is her." They said and they pushed out of their way, making Juliet fall. She looked up and saw Blake getting away.
"Don't stop, don't stop!" They carried Cora into the ER.
"Stiles!" Juliet yelled out as he attacked the twins and she pushed him to safety. They all turned back to normal and looked for something for Cora.
"Where's the big guy?" Peter asked.
"He's close." She told him.
"What about Ms. Blake? What do you mean? What does that mean? Like, she's gone? Scott, are you kidding me?" Stiles started yelling.
"Shh, quiet."
"Me be quiet? Me, huh? Are you telling me what to do now? When your psychotic, mass murdering one nightstand... has got my dad somewhere, tied up, waiting to be ritually sacrificed?"
"Stiles, they're still out there."
"And... and they want her, right? Which means now we don't have her either, so my dad and Cora are both dead!"
"Not yet. Is she really dying?" Juliet asked Peter.
"She's definitely not getting any better."
"There has to be something that we can do. We have to help her." She started looking at the cabinets for something.
"You can't." Jennifer came in. Juliet was about to attack for escaping, Isaiah and Demetri once again held ber back. "Only I can. I can save her, and I can tell you where Sheriff Stilinski is. But there is a pack of alphas in this hospital who want me dead. So I'll help you... but only when I'm out of here and safe. Only then." Derek was gonna do the same thing put Scott pulled him back.
"Derek, wait!"
"She was trying to get out." Derek pointed at her.
"I was trying to keep from getting killed. You can't blame me for that."
"If you want to show you're one of the good guys, then heal her." Stiles told her.
"Not until I'm safe."
"I'd like to volunteer a different method of persuasion. Let's torture her." Peter suggested.
"Works for me." Derek said.
"I call first." Juliet walked up and the brothers held her.
"Um, can I have your attention? Mr. Deucalion... excuse me, just Deucalion... Requests you bring the woman calling herself Jennifer Blake to the E.R. reception. Do this, and everyone else can leave. You have ten minutes." Melissa spoke in the intercom. Mom? Her stomach dropped.
"He's not gonna hurt her."
"Shut up!" She screamed at her, crying.
"He won't! Scott, you know why. Tell them it's true."
"What does she mean?" Derek asked Scott and Juliet looked at him.
"You're not the only one he wants in his pack." Jennifer told Derek. "Deucalion doesn't just want an Alpha pack. He wants perfection. That means adding the rarest of alphas to his ranks."
"A true Alpha." Peter whispers.
"What's that?" Stiles asked.
"The kind that doesn't have to steal his power from another. One that can rise by the force of his own will. Our little Scott."
"It doesn't matter. We still need to get her out of here." Scott paced around.
"Scott, mom..." Juliet looked at him.
"My mom said there's one more ambulance coming in 20 minutes. And I don't think we've been here that long, so if we can get down to the garage, get to the last ambulance, we can get out of here."
"The twins aren't gonna let us just walk out."
"I'll distract them." Juliet told Derek.
"You mean fight them."
"Whatever I have to do." She talked to him.
"I'll help you." He held her hands but pulled away.
"Um, sorry, but I'm not going anywhere without you, Derek." Blake said to him.
"I'll do it. But I'd prefer to be out there with an advantage." Peter said as he looked at Juliet.
"An advantage like what? You mean like a weapon?" Isaiah told him.
"Something better than a baseball bat." They started looking for one.
"Hey, wait. What about these?"
"Do you know how to use those?" Derek looked at Stiles and Juliet saw him holding paddles.
"Well, no."
"Put 'em down." Stiles dropped them and started looking for more.
"Epinephrine?" Scott asked her and she held the tube.
"That's only gonna make him stronger." she said.
"How strong?" Peter asked. "You know-" I stabbed the needle in his chest. Peter went out and me and Scott followed. "All right, boys. Let's rumble." They all roared at the twins and attacked. Clawing, tossing and punching was their only way to go.
"That shot didn't last very long. Those twins are really starting to piss me off." Peter panted as he was getting killed out there. Scott and Juliet carried him out. She kicked a door and went inside the room.
"How the hell are we supposed to get past them?" Juliet asked Peter.
"Personally, I think if we keep letting them beat the living crap out of us, they'll tire and give up." she looked at the laundry chute. Scott went first, then Peter. She went down as she saw the twins near the door and she landed on Peter. "You couldn't have waited, like, ten seconds?" Scott pulled out his phone. "They didn't get out, did they?" They got out and followed Scott. She knew that Stiles was okay because the Hastings were with them. God, she hopes Stiles is okay and alive. She can't lose her best friend.
"Stiles! Stiles, open the door!" They arrived at the ambulance and saw Stiles.
"Sorry." Stiles opened the door.
"Help me get him in." They got Peter in the car.
"Where's Derek and Jennifer?" He asked.
"I have to go back for them and my mom." She told them.
"Okay, two problems." She stopped running and listened to Stiles. "Kali's got the keys to this thing, and I just saw the twins, like, 30 seconds ago."
"Stay here." She told Scott and she ran off. Juliet heard a chime, she looked back and the twins were about to kill her. She stepped back, dogging the swings they're making. They pushed her against the wall.
"Where is she? We're trying not to hurt you." They said, but they were literally choking her.
"Try harder." Juliet gasp out.
"Hey! I'd like to try something." They let go of her. Melissa shocked them with the shock paddles and they went to normal. "Sweetheart, get up! Come on." her mom helped her up and ran out of the hallway.
