Shocking Encounters
After vanishing from the warehouse, I manage to end up in the woods behind my house. I land on the ground as gracefully as a dead fish and groan at the hard impact of earth hitting me. I stand and rub at my butt as Void walks out from behind me.
"Did you ssee their faces..?" He cackles and I can't help the grin overtaking my face. Which soon turns into a full out belly laugh when Void does an impression of the Alpha pack. "God..! The fear in that place was unbelievable! I thought they would've lasted a bit longer but – hey! – fun's fun. If they're smart, they get the Hale's to help." Void just grins and pats me on the back. Which resulted in me flying out of the woods and into my backyard. I flip him the bird as I kiss the ground and just lay there.
Contemplating life as I taste how dirt and grass combined together is. It's disgusting, just so you know. But at least I now know that grass taste just like how it smells like after it rains.. I grimace when I see an earthworm wriggle out of the freshly moved earth right in front of my face. I sit up and spit out the dirt, even going as far as to hacking it out. By the time I've finally gotten the dirt out of my system, I find the Hale pack directly in front of me. Well dammit..this is awkward. I slowly look up and grin when Derek flashes his Alpha eyes at me.
"Uh..Hey Derek. When did you guys get here?"
Derek just folds his arms and I can't help but be mesmerised by the way his muscles ripple. After a few seconds , I realise I've been blatantly staring at his biceps, I shift to look at Derek; who just has an eyebrow raised as if to say 'Really Stiles?' . I grin sheepishly and stand, brushing off the dirt.
"Sorry bout that..couldn't help myself!" I wink at Derek and I could've sworn I saw a faint blush on his cheeks.
"Welp, anyways, what brings you guys here?" I motion to the pack in my backyard and I see some of them shuffle. Subtly sniffing the air, I can smell their nerves. For a minute, no one answers and we all just stand there , staring at each other. The sound of a birds' sudden squawking knocks them back into the present and Issac steps forward. He has one fist clenched at his side and the other is rubbing at the back of his head. "We wanted to see if you would like to join us in pack night?" He mumbles and a glance down at his hand and I can see his knuckles turning white .
"Uh..sure! Just let me pack up first." I lead them into the house and after telling them to make themselves at home, I quickly walk up and grab a bag and some clothes, plus my metal bat. After struggling for forever, I finally manage to squeeze in my bat and slump onto my bed . I close my eyes and decide to just rest for a bit before I'm thrown back into chaos.
Stiless..what do we do about your leg?
I quickly sit up and look at Void who is standing directly in front of me. For a moment, I'm confused by what he said but then it comes rushing back to me. I groan and fall back onto my bed. "I don't know.." Void just grumbles at my reply and suddenly, he's parallel from me on the ceiling. I sigh exasperatedly and roll my eyes as he grins at me.
How bout we make it seem like you got attacked by a fox, AKA me, and then we'll go through the 'transition' . That should explain why your leg suddenly healed.. plus, this way if anything supernatural happens ; we don't have to hide the fact that it wasn't us..
By the time Void finishes talking I'm already set up by my closet,making sure to put obstacles in my way when I topple back so as to make sure the pack hears it. I take a breath when I feel Void's presence disappear but quickly replace it with a blank look as I hear the window smash open. I turn around quickly only to be pinned to the ground and scream when I feel his jaw clamp around my bicep.
Did you really have to bite me for real?! I curse him when my arm starts to bleed and I can physically feel his grin when he replies.
Well, we have to be believable... The smugness in his voice make me wish I could slap him right here and now. I get up and make an act of effort to fling him off. When it's clear he wouldn't let go, I try and really throw him off my arm.
It's only a matter of seconds before Jackson is barging in with the rest of the pack behind him, girls nowhere to he seen ,snarling and in their Beta shape when they spot me trying to pull Void off of my arm. Before anyone can react, Scott lunges forth and has a mouthful of fox before he rips him away urgently but with a touch of gentleness.
He breaks the jaws of Void and throws him out the window and I internally wince as I writhe on my knees, clutching at my bleeding arm.
Peter and Isaac are quick to pull my pain away while Jackson and Scott stand watch and Derek goes to find a medical kit. I can physically feel when my skin knots back together and run a finger over the newly mended skin.
I chuckle humourlessly and snuggle into Peter's side, quick to bring Isaac into the hug.
"Stiles? What's wrong sweetie?" Peter's soothing has me humming and I aim a sad smile at him.
I show him my arm and he gasps before pulling me into a tighter hug as Isaac hugs around my torso. I make a show to let a few tears slip as my adrenaline starts to wear off and my body shakes from lack of adrenaline.
Looks like it worked.. Void laughs and I mentally flip him the bird and huff playfully at him. All I get back in reply is an undignified gasp.
I dont know when but as time goes by, everything seems to blur all together before everything goes black. I can feel my conscience slip and soon, I'm asleep.
