《The Monster Inside ➺ Scott. M》Chapter 13
Advertisement
Astrid walked through the dark hallways, alone. Until she saw a man standing before her. He was holding a black, long jacket. She changed back into her human form and put on the jacket. It reached to her mid thigh, she turned around and looked at the man.
"What are you doing here, Elijah?" She asked her brother.
-------
Isaac, Alison and Chris Argents entered the hospital. The darkness filling the hallways. Chris loaded his gun as they slowly walked.
"I'm gonna take that as a sign that you're a little worried" Isaac whispered.
"Stay close to me" Chris told the teenagers.
"I think I heard something" Isaac said as the three stopped moving.
"Where?" Allison asked.
"Below us." He answered and laid on the ground. Listening to what was happening beneath them. He heard people running in the hallways.
------
"You know, I never liked hospitals" Astrid told her brother, who was wearing a suit, as they walked though the dark hallways. "Why didn't you go back?"
"Honestly, sister... I'm not entirely sure." He replied as they continued walking.
They heard banging and rushed to where it was coming from.
"Where is she?" She heard the alpha twins ask in their werewolf voice.
"What... was that?" Elijah asked confused.
"Alpha twins. They can merge together."
They arrived at the scene. They saw the alphas holding Scott by the neck against a wall.
"We're trying not to hurt you" the alphas told Scott.
"Try harder" Scott said, his voice hoarse.
The siblings began walking closer to the werewolves but stopped when they heard someone shout.
"Hey!" Melissa shouted and the twins dropped Scott on the ground. "I'd like to try something." She pressed a defibrillator against the alphas chest, electrifying them as Astrid walked towards Scott with her sibling. The twins laid on the ground as they separated.
"Are you Okay?" Astrid asked Scott who nodded with a smile as she helped him stand back up.
"Are you Okay?" He asked her and she kissed him softly.
"I am now." She replied. Elijah watched the couple with a smile on his face. Happy that his sister finally allowed herself to feel love instead of hate or anger.
"Come on" Melissa said as she ran, the 3 following her.

"Derek, I know what you're thinking" Jeniffer told Derek as they were stuck in the elevator. "That I'm using you, that everything that has happened between us is a lie, or that I'm evil. A bitch." She paused. "But I hope you're not thinking the most superficial thought. 'Is that her real face? The slashed, mutilated face revealed by the mistletoe. Is that what she really looks like?'" She stopped and looked at Derek. "Julia Baccari. That was my name."
"I don't care" Derek replied.
"I guess I should have changed it to something with different first letters. I think I read somewhere that people always pick aliases that are subconsciously derivative of their original name.' She said. "Its a way of not completely letting go of your identity, since your name is so tied to your sense of self. Do you know what else is?" She asked Derek. "Your face. The one that's supposed to be staring back at you in the mirror. Not some hacked up atrocity you can't even recognise."
"I still don't care" Derek shook his head.

"But I bet you're curious. I bet you wonder exactly what happened."
"You were an emissary. They tried killing you along with the rest of the pack. Mystery solved" he said, looking at Jennifer.
"I was Kali's emissary. And I was the one she couldn't kill. For years the Nemeton's power was virtually gone, like the dying ember of a burned out fire. But a few months earlier, something happened that caused that ember to glow a little brighter. Something that gave it a spark of power again. A sacrifice of a virgin" she said, referring to a girl called Paige, who Derek killed in the Nemeton. He ended her life to stop her from suffering. She was bitten but instead of turning into a werewolf, she was slowly dying.
"You didn't know what you were doing back then, but killing Paige in the root cellar, sacrificing her there, gave power to the Nemeton. You gave it power again. You gave me power" she told Derek. "Just enough to hold on to life a little longer. Long enough to be found."
Jeniffer told him about the story of mistletoe. A story which explains why people kiss under it. It's so that it would never be overlooked or used as a weapon ever again. As Loki killed the son of Odin, Baldar when they were testing weapons on him. His mother, Frigg asked every living thing to not hurt Baldar. From stones to flames. But she forgot to ask mistletoe and Loki found out about her mistake. He shot Baldar, killing him and Frigg was heartbroken. She promised to kiss anyone who walked underneath it. Which is why we now hang mistletoe above our doors during the holidays. So that we will never overlook it again.
"We were the overlooked," Jennifer said as a tear rolled down her cheek. "The emissaries. It was a mistake Deucalion and the alphas, should have never made, because I made an oath of my own. From virgins and warriors, from healers, philosophers and guardians, to loan me their power so that I could teach these monsters that their monstrous actions would never be overlooked." She said, anger in her voice.
"You killed innocent people" Derek replied calmly.
"So have you" she snapped. "I know the real colour of your eyes, Derek. And I know what it means" she talked about his blue werewolf eyes. They change to blue when a werewolf kills an innocent person. "I'm not asking you to save just my life. I'm asking you to save everyone they'll ever hurt again."
"You can't beat them"
"Are you sure about that? Boyd asked you right before he died, what happens to a werewolf during a lunar eclipse? You didn't get the chance to tell him, but you know, don't you? What happens, Derek?"
"We lose all our power"
------
Melissa, Scott, Astrid and Elijah stopped when they heard a gun clicking. They moved slowly and stopped when they saw Argent, aiming a gun at them. Scaring each other. They all soon arrived in a room with a table.
"There's not way of getting out without turning power back on." Isaac said. They all gathered around the table. Astrid stood next to Scott and Elijah right next to her.
"We can't get in a fight with them" Scott told everyone.
"You've got us now." Argent replied.
"I apologise for interrupting but how are you humans going to beat a pack of alphas?" Elijah asked.

"I never told you about them" Astrid raised an eyebrow.
"I walked past some of them on my way here." He explained.
"We're hunters. We can beat werewolves" Alison told him as she walked towards him.
"He's a human and you wouldn't stand a chance against him" Astrid lied and Elijah raised an eyebrow.
"Oh yeah?" Allison tried punching Elijah but he caught her hand mid-punch. Allison looked at him surprised before trying to punch him again but he caught her over hand as well.
"As a devout feminist, I refuse to say you hit like a girl" Elijah spoke and Allison looked embarrassed.
"I told you" Astrid chuckled.
"Whatever." Allison replied; walking back to stand next to her dad.
"I can't believe I went from a town full of vampires to a town full of werewolves" Elijah sighed as everyone looked at him.
"They want her dead" Scott said, referring to Jennifer and trying to ignore what Elijah just said. "And if she dies, then there's nothing that we can do for Stiles' dad or Cora."
"I don't even know which teacher this is" Argent replied.
"She's... she's the one with brown hair. She's kind of hot." Isaac said as everyone looked at him surprised. "No it's... it's just an observation."
"I've got an idea" Allison said, looking at herself in a mirror.
------
"You ready?" Allison asked Isaac while facetiming him. He was in his car as she and the rest were still inside the hospital. "You're not nervous, are you?" Allison asked.
"Do I look nervous?" Isaac asked.
"No, not at all." She lied, putting her phone down so Isaac can see the hallway.
"Did he look nervous?" Argent asked his daughter.
"Terrified" she answered.
"Yeah, I can still hear you, very, very clearly" Isaac said, causing Elijah and Astrid to chuckle quietly.
"Just go as soon as you see them, Okay?" Allison told Isaac.
"Elijah... go back to Mystic falls. Go. You need to keep an eye on Rebekah and Kol. Let's not forget about the Salvatores" Astrid told her brother as the Argents stared at them.
"Are you sure, sister?" He asked, stroking her cheek.
"Yes, go." She said, grabbing his hand. She pulled him closer. "Make sure that they don't kill everyone" she whispered so that Argents wouldn't hear them. He pulled away and nodded. Astrid stood on her tip toes and kissed his cheek as a goodbye. Elijah walked away, finally leaving the town.
The Argents watched with with smiled on their faces. "You're close" Allison said.
Astrid smiled "Yeah. But not as close with my full brother, Klaus, who's in the ambulance with Stiles and Cora." She replied. "Well... I'll see you two soon." She said as she turned back into a black wolf. Chris' eyes opened wider as he saw her transform while Allison looked surprised. Astrid quietly walked away from the hunters.
----
The alpha twins were walking around, looking for Jennifer. They heard footsteps and saw a brunette woman running away from them in the hallway so they decided to run after her, thinking it was Jennifer.
Isaac saw the twins run past in his phone so he started the car and drove to the ambulance.
Allison left the hospital through the front entrance as the twins followed her. Kali jumped out the window landing in front of the hospital. Allison stopped and picked up her bow, aiming it at the three alphas. Allison and her dad began shooting at them, Chris using his gun.
------
Derek pressed a button for the bottom floor as the power turned back on.
"Derek, please look at me" Jennifer said softly behind him.
Derek, instead of looking back at her, looked at her reflection. He saw her real face, slashed, bold as she screeched.
------
Isaac got to the ambulance. Peter and Stiles helped take out Cora and put her into the car. Klaus walked out of the ambulance after them.
"Stiles let's go!" Isaac told Stiles as he was reading a sheet of paper which was hanging on the ambulance door. It said 'parent or guardian'. Instead of getting into the car, Stiles ran back into the hospital as Isaac shouted his name.
"I'm sitting at the front. I don't want your sweaty niece on me." He said unemotionally as he got in the car.
------
Astrid saw Scott running towards the elevator so she followed him. When the doors opened, they revealed Derek, laying in the floor unconscious. Astrid licked his hand and looked at him with her beautiful yellow wolf eyes.
"Mom" Scott said as he opened the door, using the stairs to get on the roof. Astrid followed him, ignoring Stiles as he shouted 'Scott' while following the two werewolves.
Astrid and Scott arrived at the roof but his mother wasn't there. "Mom! Mom!" Scott shouted at the top of his lungs.
"They're gone" Deucalion stated as he walked towards the werewolves. Astrid growled at him. "Guardians, Scott. If you were with me, I could've told you what it meant. I could've warned you. Let me help you, Scott. Let's help each other. You help me catch her, and I'll help you get your mother and Stiles' father back. Astrid can join too. She's a special one after all. Not many can change fully into a wolf whenever they want."
Scott walked towards him slowly and Astrid looked at him concerned and surprised. She whimpered as she watched him.
Stiles appeared behind Astrid and then stood beside her."Scott. Scott, don't do this. Don't go with him." Stiles said as Scott turned around to look at him.
"I don't know what else to do." Scott admitted.
"No, there's... Scott, there's got to be something else, Okay? We always have a plan B." Stiles said, shaking slightly.
Scott sobbed and looked at his girlfriend, then to his best friend. "Not this time." He shook his head. Astrid began walking towards him. "No.." Scott said softly as he crouched down to her level, taking her wolf head into his hands, stroking her fur softly. "Stay with them. They need you" he said to her but she shook her head. "Please." He begged and kissed her head, standing back up and walking towards Deucalion. She turned around and walked towards Stiles, sadness filling her heart.
"Scott." Stiles said, Astrid at his side.
"I'm gonna find your dad. I promise."
"Scott." Stiles said once again but this time, Scott ignored him and just walked.
Astrid turned back to her human form, looking at Stiles with teary eyes. Stiles smiled slightly and walked back downstairs, leaving her on the rooftop alone.

Verdant Heart Seed - A Reverend Insanity fan-fiction
Back in the Late Antiquity Era, the protagonist meets his untimely demise. But Heaven and Earth always leaves a way out, his new cultivation journey begins anew on the path of reclaiming his former strength and defying Fate.---This is a story about a native cultivator of the Gu world. He lived in the era of/before Spectral Soul Demon Venerable (two venerable eras before the main RI plot). He suffered the rise of the demon venerable, barely able to make his arrangements before his death. He manages to rebirth, but doesn't everything go as planned. The story starts off in an isolated small word (grotto heaven), until the MC can grow and reclaim his former glory, before surpassing it. (long way, he was already rank 8 before) The MC has a pragmatic worldview, aligned with what you would expect from someone living hundreds of years in that kind of hostile environment. He doesn't shy away from immoral acts if it benefits him. The MC bears close resemblance to Fang Yuan in this regard, but his goal is not eternal life.One of my aims was to showcase the later introduced cultivation rules into the mortal cultivation (dao marks, attainment etc.) and explore novel scenarios within this highly technical cultivation environment.
