1118 Words
Stiles walked into his home, his mind reeling from the day's events. He settled in front of his computer, researching wild wolves. A sudden knock at the door startled him. He opened it to find Scott standing on his porch, looking exhausted. "I've been up all night," stiles said, his eyes sunken. Stiles invited him in. "Is it about the body?" Scott asked. Stiles shook his head. "No, they're still questioning people, but that's not it." Scott's eyes narrowed. "What then?" Stiles hesitated before speaking. "Remember the joke from the other day? Not a joke anymore. The wolf that attacked you in the woods... do you even know why a wolf howls?" Scott raised an eyebrow. "Should I know?" "It's a signal," Stiles explained. "When a wolf is alone, it howls to reveal its location to the rest of the pack. So if you hear a wolf howling, it means others could be nearby – maybe even the whole pack." Scott's eyes widened. "A whole pack of wild...?" "No, werewolves," Stiles clarified. Scott snorted. "Are you seriously wasting my time with this? You know I have to pick up Allison in an hour." Stiles pressed on. "I saw you on the field today. What you did wasn't just amazing – it was impossible." Well I just made a good shot. "No, you made an excellent shot. The way you move, your speed, your reflexes... and there's the vision, the senses. And don't think I haven't noticed – you don't use your inhaler anymore." Scott's expression turned impatient. "I can't think about this now. We'll talk tomorrow." Stiles' voice rose, urgency etched on his face. "Don't you get it? I'm trying to help you, Scott. Your curse – it's not just the moon that makes you physically change. It's also when your bloodlust is at its peak. Your urge to kill." Scott's face twisted, fear and anger warring for dominance. "Bloodlust?" Stiles continued, relentless. "The change can be caused by anger or anything that raises your pulse. I don't see anyone raising your pulse like Allison. You're going to have to cancel this date." Scott's anger erupted. He slammed Stiles against the wall with supernatural force. A chair crashed to the floor as Stiles struggled to break free. Finally, Scott released him, his chest heaving. "I'm sorry. I have to go get ready for that party." His eyes locked onto Stiles', filled with apology and fear. Stiles picked up the chair, his heart still racing. Three deep scratches on the chair's surface chilled him – a reminder of Scott's growing strength. Scott stepped out of the shower, wrapping a towel around his waist. As he reached for the doorknob, he was startled to find his mom standing in the doorway, a knowing glint in her eye. "Is this a party or a date?" she asked, raising an eyebrow. Scott hesitated, feeling a flush rise to his cheeks. "Maybe both," he admitted. His mom's gaze softened. "And her name is...?" "Allison," Scott replied "Hopefully, we don't need to have that talk," Scott's mom said, a hint of amusement in her voice. "Mom, I'm not having the safe s*x talk with you," Scott protested, his face flushing.. With that, Scott headed out the door, hopping into his car to pick up Allison. He pulled up to her house, and she stepped out, looking stunning in her They drove to the party, and as they entered, everyone was having fun. It was night already. Just then, Scott met Derek, the guy from the woods. A dog started barking in its cage. Derek looked at it, and it stopped. He looked at Scott for a while, and Scott gave him the same gaze. Allison's concerned voice broke the silence. "Scott, are you okay?" Scott nodded, shaking off the uneasy feeling. "Yeah." Just then, his gaze drifted toward the window, and his heart skipped a beat. A wolf, its eyes glowing in the darkness, seemed to pass by the pane. But when he blinked, it was gone. No one else appeared to have noticed anything out of the ordinary. The music and laughter continued uninterrupted. Scott's brow furrowed, uncertainty creeping in. Had he really seen it, or was it just a trick of the shadows? The darkness outside made it impossible to be sure. "Allison asked, "Want to dance?" and Scott replied, "Yes." They stepped onto the dance floor, laughing and holding each other close. The music enveloped them, and for a moment, everything else faded away. Just then, Scott spotted Lydia and Jackson dancing nearby. His gaze locked onto them, and his grip on Allison tightened. His heart began racing, pounding in his chest. A familiar, intense pressure built in his head, threatening to overwhelm him. Scott's vision blurred, and he felt his control slipping. Allison asked, "Are you alright?" Scott replied, strained, "I'll be right back." He swiftly navigated through the crowd, Allison following closely. But before she could catch up, Scott jumped into his car and sped away. Allison stood alone, confusion etched on her face, when a figure emerged from the shadows. "I'm a friend of Scott," he said, his voice low and smooth. "My name is Derek Scott clutched his head, trying to ward off the searing pain. He glanced out the window, and his heart sank. A full moon hung low in the sky. He rushed to the shower, hoping the water would wash away his growing unease. But the pain only intensified, throbbing in his temples. As he lifted his face to the water, he felt a strange sensation. Faint, razor-sharp fangs protruded from his teeth. Scott stumbled to the mirror, horrified. Yellow eyes stared back, and his gums ached with the emergence of razor-sharp fangs. Just then, a knock at the door shattered the silence. "Who is it?" Scott called out, rushing to the door. "It's me," Stiles replied. Scott's hands trembled as he grasped the door handle, desperate to keep Stiles out. "What do you want?" he growled. Let me in, Scott. I can help," Stiles pleaded. "No," Scott growled, his voice barely human. "You have to find Allison. Derek Hale's he's the one who bite me, who killed the girl in the woods." "Scott, Derek drove Allison from the party. Enraged, Scott slammed the door shut and jumped out the window, landing crouched on the ground. Water splashed around him as he absorbed the impact. As he stood, his transformation accelerated. Fangs lengthened, pants ripped, and ears elongated. Yellow eyes blazed in the darkness. A raw, primal growl tore from Scott's throat – a wolf's woof. He sprinted into the darkness, driven by instinct and a desperate need to protect Allison from Derek's clutches.
