Wicked World ➵ Dunbar

Chapter 4

The drive back to Beacon Hills was more cramped than the last drive to the church, the Derek they are all saying is too young to be Derek was lying across us for girls, shaking from the cold. Arriving back to the town we pull up to a animal clinic and I watch Scott carry Derek inside and Lydia and I rush in to meet the man named Deaton, a great person who I have heard so much about, clearing the table Derek is placed down onto it and Deaton's face looks more than surprised.

"Wow" was the only thing Deaton could get out while looking at the young boy.

"Wow? As in I've seen this before and I know exactly what to do wow?" Stiles asks and I cut him off.

"Yeah I mean that would be extremely helpful" I state quickly.

"I think you might be overestimating my abilities" Deaton tells Stiles and I and I look over to Scott.

Lydia places her hand into Derek's and then looks around to everyone "He's cold, really cold" Lydia tells everyone seriously.

"Do you think this is permeant" Scott asks Deaton worried.

Deaton puts a light to Derek's eyes, looking over the young teenager who was meant to be older than Scott and the others "I'm not sure a medical report could help us, this is beyond my experience" Deaton says pulling away from Derek and looking at the four of us with worry.

I frown "So what do we do with him?" I ask Deaton.

"Until he wakes up, properly not much" Deaton says to us seriously "Might be best to leave him with me, he'll be safe here" Deaton tells us.

"You mean safe from Kate" Stiles corrects Deaton.

"If what you say is true, and she is alive, she won't be able to pass that gate" Deaton tells Stiles.

"Why would she want to do this to him?" Lydia asks Deaton confused.

"Knowing Kate it's properly for a reason, that won't be good for anyone but her" Deaton tells us.

"And bad for everyone else" Stiles says.

Deaton looks to us, watching all of us seriously "You should all properly go home" Stiles rolls his head as if that was the silliest thing he had heard all day, I sigh and Lydia looks blankly at Deaton "He doesn't look to be in any danger, so maybe the rest of you should get some sleep?" Deaton suggests cocking his head slightly at us "It is a school night"

Shit I forgot all about school tomorrow.

"You all need to start taking care of your own lives again" Deaton tells us, more so aimed at Scott, Lydia and Stiles, not so much myself.

"Someone should stay with you" Scott points out.

I look over to Lydia seeing that she was still holding onto Derek's hand softly.

"I'll stay, my grades are fine" Lydia says to her alpha Scott seriously "despite missing a few classes"

"So not okay with this" Stiles says seriously, worrying about the strawberry blonde causing her to roll her eyes gently.

Lydia turns her head to Stiles "Guys, go"

Stiles shakes his head "Nope"

"Text us if anything happens?" Scott asks Lydia after she looks at him and Stiles stares at his best friend.

"Nope still not okay with this" Stiles starts to say but Scott walks behind Lydia and grabs onto Stiles, dragging him out of the animal clinic and I follow behind the two boys "Okay just because you're stronger" Stiles whines as we exit the building and head to his jeep heading back to Scott's house.
