'lunatic'

      ⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅

AFTER WITNESSING SCOTT about to kill everyone in the classroom, Alyssa acted quickly to stop him, by pulling him out of his wolf state. She didn't know why she has such an effect on Scott when he was transformed, but she didn't question it.
She also didn't know why the alpha didn't kill her like he did with Derek; but she knew that the alpha wanted Scott to get rid of his old pack before joining his new one. Alyssa guessed that maybe the alpha wanted her in his pack as well, as he didn't kill her. She honestly didn't know.

After the police came, everyone from the school was questioned and Derek's body was absolutely nowhere to be found, meaning that he is alive, and had gone into hiding to heal (as that is what they were taught to do), or the alpha had taken his body as a some kind of trophy of some sort.
She was hoping it was the first option.

There was now an APB out on Derek, and Alyssa had to lie and say that she had a friends to stay at, they were planning to take her there, to see if it's true; but she left before they could, sneaking away back to her house.
If they knew that she had no where to stay; she would be put into foster care as she wasn't of age, and that couldn't happen.

Allison had broken up with Scott, not that Alyssa really cared; after they had come into contact with the alpha, he knocked Alyssa out and forced Scott to shift. She had stopped him just in time, by grabbing him and causing him to shift back, he ultimately locked the teenagers into the classroom so that he couldn't get in and kill them.
Allison got all funny about Scott lying to her... If only she knew that he was protecting her and her friends.

They also found out that Deaton isn't actually the alpha. Alyssa had to remember that next time she saw the man, she would have to apologise for Derek's behaviour towards him.

She had been avoiding her house for a while, walking throughout the woods, not wanting to go back there without Derek; but there was no where else she could go. Without him, she didn't have anything.
She made the right decision to go back, as Derek was already there and waiting for her.

"Thank god you're okay." She breathed a sigh in relief when she spotted him, she then ran up to him and pulled him in for a bone crushing hug, which he surprisingly returned, gladly, happy that his sister was safe. "I really thought the alpha killed you."

"It wasn't enough to kill me, but it took longer for me to heal." Derek told her, when they broke apart, he raised an eyebrow at her, "Now, why am I a wanted criminal?" He asked her.

Alyssa shifted on her feet nervously, not looking forward to his reaction, "Umm, well..." She scratched the back of her head, "Scott kind of told everyone that you're behind the murders." She told him, causing his face to fall.
She knew he wouldn't take it well.

After Alyssa had explained the nights events at the school, Derek had told her to act normal; but she couldn't go back to school, everyone thinks that he is the killer, she'll be a laughing stock.
"Since when do you care about what other people think?" Derek asked her in disbelief.

"Since it's the full moon and there's nothing stopping me from ripping out anyone's throats." She dead-panned.

Derek scoffed and rolled his eyes, "Fine, stay with me, then. But we need to look out for Scott tonight, since you said that Allison broke up with him, he won't have his anchor to keep him under control." He told her, earning a nod from Alyssa.

Allison had texted her during the day, along with Lydia, asking if she's okay about the whole Derek situation, she told them she was just upset about it, and needed a day to handle the news.
She didn't think they would still want to be friends with her when they found out that Derek is the 'killer'. But when they did, it was a pleasant surprise to the Hale girl.

It was now night time and Derek was off doing something, so she decided to help Stiles out with Scott on the full moon. She was much better at keeping in control, as she had been doing it for years, so she wasn't such a problem.

She was now at Scott's house with Stiles, who had chains in his hands; she didn't think it would work, but she might as well give it a chance. She just had to keep Scott in his house, which may be a harder task than she thought - Derek was on standby nearby, just in case something were to go wrong.
Stiles opened the McCall's front door with a key.
"You have a key to their house?" She asked him, with a raised eyebrow, not believing that he had one cut, as she was sure that Scott's mom would not give him a key willingly.

"Yeah, because they always lock it." Stiles answered, casually, as if there was nothing wrong with it.

"Maybe because it's their house?" Alyssa asked sarcastically, rolling her eyes as Stiles opened the house and motioned for her to enter.

As they walked in, a female voice called out, "Scott?" Alyssa gathered that this must be his mom.

"Stiles." Stiles answered, as she came to the front door to see who was there.

"Hi, I'm Alyssa." Alyssa said, with a smile, seeing the woman in hospital scrubs, she had never met her before, so technically breaking into her house wasn't the best way she wanted to be introduced.

"Melissa." She replied, while returning the smile, she then turned to Stiles and pointed at his hand, which was holding a key, "Key." She stated, not sounding happy about it.
She would have been surprised that Scott and Stiles had a pretty girl as a friend, but she was more focused that Stiles had his own key, as she definitely didn't give him one.

"Yeah. I had one made, so..." Stiles trailed off, awkwardly.

Melissa nodded in understanding, "That doesn't surprise me. It scares me, but it doesn't surprise me." She told him, she then pointed to the bag that Stiles was holding, full of chains, "What is that?"

"Uh, school project." Alyssa told her quickly.

"Mmm." Melissa hummed, not believing her lie, "Stiles, he's okay, right?" She asked the sarcastic boy.

"Who? Scott?" He asked, Alyssa rolled her eyes, who else would she be talking to? "Yeah. Totally." He said, nodding.

"He just doesn't talk to me that much anymore, not like he used to." Melissa said sadly.

"Well, he's had a bit of a rough week." Stiles told her sympathetically.

Melissa nodded, "Yeah, yeah, I get it." She said, gathering her bag, "Yeah, um... Okay, uh... You two be careful tonight." She told the two.

"You, too." Alyssa and Stiles answered in union. They then began to go up the stairs to Scott's room, only to get stopped by Melissa once more.

"Full moon." She told them casually, picking up her bags.

Stiles and Alyssa turned round to gape at her, "What?" They asked in union, once more.

"There's a full moon tonight. You should see how the E.R. Gets. Brings out all the nut jobs." She explained to them. Proving to the teenagers that she didn't know about werewolves.

"Oh." Stiles said, while Alyssa sighed in relief.

"Yeah." Melissa replied, nodding.

Stiles scratched the back of his head awkwardly, "Right." He stated.

"You know, it's, um, actually where they came up with the word 'lunatic'." Melissa explained, before she left the two alone.

They had instantly left to go to Scott's room once Melissa left, only to find him sitting in the complete darkness, Alyssa couldn't help but think of how creepy it was.
"Oh, my God! Dude. You scared the hell out of me." Stiles jumped when he saw Scott in the room.

"Your mom said that you weren't home yet." Alyssa stated confusingly, wondering how he got in.

Scott didn't look up at them as he spoke in a low, growling voice, "I came in through the window." He said.

"Dude, you have a front door." Alyssa stated, looking at him weirdly, as she knew that the full moon affects was already starting to hit him.

"Okay. Uh, well, let's get this set up. I want you to see what we bought." Stiles told him, pulling out the chains from his bag.

"I'm fine. I'm just gonna lock the door and go to bed early tonight." Scott told them.

Stiles scoffed, while Alyssa stared at him in confusion, she has never acted this weird on a full moon, "You sure about that? 'Cause you've got this kind of serial killer look going on in your eyes, and I'm hoping it's the full moon taking effect, 'cause it's really starting to freak me out." He told Scott.

"I'm fine. You should go now." Scott told them both.

Stiles nodded, "All right, I'll leave. Well, look, would you just at least look in the bag and see what I bought? You know, maybe you use it, maybe you don't. Sound good?" He explained to Scott.

"You think I'm gonna let you put these on and chain me up like a dog?" Scott asked Stiles in disbelief, once he saw the multiple chains in the bag.

"Actually, no." Stiles said, as Alyssa quickly handcuffed Scott to the radiator. While they were talking, she had snuck up behind him and managed to get him in a hold. She had to make sure to keep her distance, as a wolf being controlled by the full moon can be a lot more stronger than on a normal day.

Scott glared at her, trying to get out of the cuffs, Alyssa knew they wouldn't hold, but hopefully he would try and keep his shifting under control until Derek can help him, "What the hell are you doing?" He sneered at her.

"Scott, you're letting the moon control you." Alyssa explained carefully, as she slowly backed up from him as he struggled to pull the handcuff from the radiator.

Stiles answered, "Protecting you from yourself and giving you some payback... For making out with Lydia." He told Scott.

Alyssa looked at Stiles with a raised eyebrow, "He made out with Lydia?" She asked in disbelief, knowing how the Stilinski boy felt for her, when he nodded, she turned to Scott, "Wow, wrong move buddy."

∘ ∘ ∘

Scott had argued with Stiles more, talking about how Lydia 'wanted' the kiss and that she was all over him. Alyssa told Stiles that it was the full moon talking, but Scott's words still affected him.
He kept pleading to be let out but they didn't let him, that is until he broke free and ran away, causing Alyssa to run after him, texting Derek on the way.

They both then met up in the woods and followed Scott's scent, to a car; which to no ones surprise, had Allison and Jackson sat in.
He was on top of the car, fully transformed, about to claw through the roof, when Derek body slammed him away, causing the two to roll down a hill in the forest. She was quick to jog after them and witness was went down next.

Scott went to attack Derek, only for him to grab Scott and hold him against a tree to calm him down, "Stop! Scott, stop!" He shouted, they were both fully transformed.

Alyssa would shift and step in to help, but she was afraid that if she did, her anger would get the best of her.
After Derek has pushed Scott away, he came back up to Derek and began throwing swipes, only for Derek to avoid each one.
Alyssa was getting tired of them fighting, knowing that Scott wasn't going to get anywhere with fighting her brother.
She allowed her eyes to glow and she roared, "Scott!"

Suddenly, Scott to snap out of it looking up at Alyssa with a shocked and slightly guilty expression, watching as the glow in her eyes died down, this allowed Derek to shift back to his human form. Scott looked down at his hands, looking guilty and upset.
"What's happening to me?" He asked the two Hale's.

"Exactly what he wants to happen." Derek said.

They had made it back to Scott's house, Derek had to  practically drag Scott, as the full moon had taken up most of his energy.
He sat on the bed and looked up at Derek with guilt, Alyssa stood by the door of his room, looking down at Scott with sympathy, knowing the boy still didn't want this gift.

Derek looked down at him once more before turning to leave with Alyssa, only for Scott to stop him, "Wait." He said.
This caused Derek to stop and turn back around, "I can't do this. I can't be this and be with Allison. I need you to tell me the truth. Is there a cure?" He asked the Hale siblings.

Derek looked back at Alyssa, who shrugged at him, it was up to him what he told Scott, "For someone who was bitten? I've heard of one. I don't know if it's true." He told Scott.

"Well, what is it?" Scott asked in desperation.

"You have to kill the one that bit you." Derek informed him, as Alyssa felt guilty. She just wanted to help Scott.

"Kill the Alpha?" Scott repeated in disbelief. Looking towards Alyssa for confirmation. He often did that, only believing the girl in front of him.
Alyssa eventually nodded, knowing that she still had to go along with Derek's plan. She felt bad, but there was nothing she could do.

"Scott. If you help us find him, we'll help you kill him."
