i don't feel very human anymore

"MOVE!" Hope yelled as she ran through the hospital halls, trying to push her way to where the front desk was. "Sco—" before she could even ask her question, a loud wail of pain and misery was heard.

Hope spun around, her eyes watering at the sight of Melissa McCall on the floor, hitting it harshly with the palm of her hands as she cried out for her son — Scott.

"Mom!" Hope shouted, her voice wavering and cracking. She ran towards the only mother she's ever known before sliding down on her knees, and taking the crying woman into her arms. "Mom," She croaked, her shaky hands flying through Melissa's brown curls.

You see, Scott came up with this stupid, idiotic, but brave plan to slow down his heart enough to the point where he looks dead. He did it since he's the second highest price on the list and because he wouldn't let Hope do it especially after everything she's been through. This was s big opportunity to find out who the benefactor is.

Melissa weakly stood up, bringing the blonde up with her, and they walked into the morgue.

When they walked inside the morgue, they saw Stiles, Kira, Liam, and Kira's mom standing around Scott's 'dead' body.

Even though Hope knew he wasn't really dead, he looked dead, so it was till so upsetting to the point where a small sob even escaped her.

Sniffling, Melissa asked a very important question. "How much time do we have?"

Kira's mom answered, "Forty-five minutes."

"What happens after that?"

"I bring him back the same way," Kira answered simply.

Melissa shook her head. "No, I mean what happens if he stays like this longer than forty-five minutes?"

"No one's told her?" Kira's mom questioned, looking around the room at everyone.

Hope sighed and looked at her mother. "He dies..."

A group which consisted of Stiles, Kira, Liam, and Hope stood in a hospital room, looking at three laptop screens which were showing all the in's and out's of the hospital, allowing them to see when and who the benefactor is when they come in to look at Scott's body.

"Is that supposed to look like that?" Liam, Scott's beta, asked, pointing to a laptop that was suppose to show the roof, but it was completely black.

Stiles furrowed his eyebrows and shook his head. "No. No, it's not."

"I'll go," Hope said, straightening her shoulders. Shd needed to do something. She hated doing nothing and feeling useless, and that is what happened the other day at the school.

Stiles fumbled around before grabbing Hope's hand. "Whoa, whoa. This might not just be a malfunction."

"Stiles." Hope turned to him, giving him a look. "I'm a hybrid, I heal pretty fast and I can do magic. Plus, I'm a hunter who's been trained by professional's who know how to fight. I can take care of myself." She leaned forward and kissed his cheek. "I'll be fine, trust me." She gave him a small smile and walked out of the room.

WHEN Hope reached the roof, she came face to face with a bone made creature.

Hope sighed. She was really hoping that it was just some bad weather that messed up the signal, but she should'be knowm better. Afterall, she can never get a break.

"You don't want to mess with me," Hope said, her voice echoing through the wind. "I don't want to kill you, but I will if I deem you evil."

The bone creature roared and ran towards her.

Hope sighed. "Okay..." she trailed off before running towards the creature. She jumped into the air, throwing her arm backwards before bringing it down and connecting it with it's face. A loud crack was heard.

The creature stumbled back slightly before standing tall, growling as it did so.

Hope rolled her eyes. She's just so done with everything lately.

Out of nowhere, the bone creature surprised her and threw her across the roof and she landed with a loud 'hmph'. She groaned and rolled over and looked up at the bone creature as it approached her.

She didn't get up fast enough so the creature placed it's foot on her chest and began putting pressure on it to the point where she was gasping for breath, and clawing at it's foot.

Suddenly, a wave of confidence bursted through her and she looked up, determined, and she let out the loudest roar she ever thought was possible, and lifted the foot off of her chest before throwing the creature away from her.

It flew through the air, doing a flip before landing on it's feet, sliding across the concrete for a second.

Hope growled, slowly standing up, her head tilted down. She looked absolutely menacing and exactly like her biological father.

When Hope lifted her head, her golden eyes and canines were visible. She snarled and pounced on the creature, slicing, kicking, and punching it over and over, and over again. She was letting out all her frustration, anger, and bottled up feelings on it.

Finally, feeling better, Hope grabbed the creatures face and began pulling her hands in to two different directions, successfully ripping it's face apart. As she did so, a bright light shone through, blinding her.

With her eyes closed, she growled in anger, still pulling it's face apart before a 'whoosh' sound was heard, and the bright light disappeared.

Hope stumbled backwards slightly and opened her eyes, finding the bone creature gone. She nodded, breathing heavily before throwing the two pieces of it's face on the ground.

AS Hope made her way around the hospital, going back to the room they were all previously in, but she paused when she heard something from the morgue.

Looking up, Hope realized that it was almost time to wake up Scott from his 'beauty rest'.

She ran as quickly as she could and bursted through the morgue doors, coming face to face with Kate Argent who was glaring at Stiles and Chris.

Hope snarled and stood in between them. "Hello, Kate. It's so not nice seeing your face around here."

"Ah, Hope, the cosmic mistake," Kate commented, smirking at the confusion on the blonde's face. "Oh, poor you. You still don't know who your parents are, do you?"

"And you do?" Hope narrowed her eyes, fidgeting, wanting to know more about her family, but she wasn't going to allow herself to be manipulated by Kate Argent.

"Oh, yes, I do, sweetie, and, boy do I have a story for you." She tilted her head, looking the blonde up and down. "I can see it in you. The darkness. It's going to eat you up."

"And it's going to choke on me, you psychotic bitch," Hope snapped, her eyes glowing. She has always hated Kate.

Kate growled and flashed her green eyes at Hope, her canines and claws showing through.

"Awe. Did I hurt your feelings?" Hope questioned before Kate launched herself at her.

Seeing it coming, Hope stepped to the side and stabbed Kate in the side with her claws. Hope grabbed the bitches arm and flung her across the room, watching in satisfaction as Kate hit the wall and fell to the floor.

Hope walked over to her, about to grab her, but Kate jumped up and swiped at Hope's stomach.

Hope let out a scream and stumbled backwards before balancing herself, about to attack Kate when the Morgue's door opened and in came Rebekah.

Rebekah froze, trying to look as human and innocent as possible.

"Get out of here!" Hope shouted which gave Kate enough time to swipe at her again. Hope let out a shriek and turned around, growling. She roared and punched Kate in the jaw, sending her head flying to the right. She then grabbed Kate's head and slammed her face into her knees.

"Fucking bitch!" Kate screeched, growling, her green eyes more vibrant now. She clawed at Hope's arm and gave her an upper cut, making Hope's head swing backwards as she stumbled, almost falling to the floor.

"Bloody hell!" Rebekah cried out, both fake and real tears falling down her cheeks. She needed to act like she didn't know about the supernatural so that the pack wouldn't be suspicious. The reason for the real tears was because she didn't want to see her niece like this. "Hope!" She screeched.

Hope was hunched over, breathing heavily as she tried to keep herself from passing out from losing so much blood. Even though she heals pretty damn fast, it still took a little time, and in that time she's healing, she is also still bleeding.

Kate flew another fist at Hope's fast so much that a switch was flipped inside Hope and her anger was shown in her face as she roared and looked her, her big golden wolf eyes shining vibrantly. She lurched herself at Kate and started punching her, not even stopping for a second.

Kate fell to the ground and Hope landed on top of her, landing punch after punch to her face. She even began slicing at Kate's stomach and face, not even caring as blood splattered all over the place.

"Hope!" A voice shouted, bringing her back to reality.

She stooped slicing at Kate and looked up, her eyes connecting with Stiles'. She let out a breath and her eyes slowly went back to normal.

Stiles had tears in his fearful eyes. "Hope..."

Hope looked down at the withering Kate who was trying to get away. All of a sudden, reality hit her harshly in the face and she stumble off of Kate, falling against the floor with a loud thud, and she scooted herself as far away from everyone as she could before she started to cry.

Since everyone had their eyes on Hope, Kate quickly got up as fast as she could and limped away.

Rebekah took a mental note of the woman's face and was going to tell Klaus and Hayley about her, knowing that Kate will be dead by morning.

Hope looked up, her eyes connecting with Stiles' again, and they continued to stare at each other, neither of them saying anything.

"Hope..." Stiles broke the silence and walked towards her, but paused when she flinched back. "Hope, it's okay. I know you won't hurt me." He lowered himself to the ground and brought her into a comforting hug, kissing her forehead.

Kira and the others came running into the room, their eyes widening at the sight of Stiles hugging a blood covered Hope.

They then ran towards where Scott was upon realizing they were running out of time.

Hope sniffled and stood up, watching as Kira pressed her hand on Scott's chest and electricity flew through them before Scott lurched forward.

"Did it work?" He asked as soon as he gained his breath. His brown eyes then latched onto Hope's and his widened at the sight of blood covering her. "Hope?"

Hope took one look at him and caved. She ran into his arms and started sobbing her poor little heart out. "I'm so sorry. I almost killed Kate. I'm sorry..."

Scott wrapped his arms around her and gave her a small squeeze. "It's alright, Hope. I know you're a good person. We all do." His brown eyes then widened once he saw Rebekah in the corner, shaking like a chihuahua. "Erm...Rebekah?"

Rebekah flinched, mentally applauding herself at her acting. "I—I—what happened? How are you alive? Who was that woman? Hope almost killed somebody! Who are you people?!" She acted like she was afraid and she pressed her back against the wall. She made her heart rate speed up to make sure that if the wolves were listening in, they would believe her.

"We'll explain everything. Please don't tell anybody what you saw tonight. Okay?"

Rebekah meekly nodded her head. "Okay, I—I won't tell anyone." But my family.
