In A Flash

Chapter Eleven

"What about?" I ask as I step further into the room. Derek gestures to the seats that have been set up in the middle of the room. Everyone takes a seat. "It's about the Flash." Derek begins.

"What about him?" Isaac asks.

"Well, we know absolutely nothing about the guy." Peter laughs.

"What are you trying to say?" Scott questions.

"What I'm saying is that we don't know who his enemies are. Or even what his intentions are." Peter elaborates.

"Isn't it kind of obvious that the Flash is helping people, not hurting them? He doesn't have to save people, but he does." I intervene. "That doesn't mean that he's good. Maybe just he wants us to think that. What if he's got darker plans?" Derek counters. I scoff at Derek's logic. "Where's the proof?" I ask, my tone becoming frustrated.

"It's not just that, Stiles. Calm down." Peter states. I feel everyone's eyes trained on me. I feel my cheeks burn in embarrassment. If I'm not careful, I'll give myself away, if I haven't already. I sigh, relaxing in my chair. "What else is the problem?" I wearily ask.

"We don't know his enemies." Peter explains.

"That is true..." Kira comments.

"How do we know he has enemies?" Malia asks.

"Well, we do know that the Storm is coming for him." Scott says.

"Exactly. There's probably a lot more people trying to hunt him down. I don't think they'll care if they kill other people that get in their way." Peter adds. I really hope that he's wrong.

"What are you suggesting we do?" I ask.

"To kill the Flash. It eliminates any threat." Peter answers. My heart drops, fear coursing through me.

"What? Why would we do that?" Scott asks Peter, anger apparent in his tone.

"Because we don't know who he is! Or what he is!" Peter retorts matter of factly.

"He's not like us, Scott." Derek helps his uncle out. Lydia looks at Derek in disbelief.

"So you'd kill someone who you don't even know is bad?" She asks incredulously.

"No. I don't agree with that part. However, when it comes to capturing the Flash, I think we should. We need to know who he is and what he is." Derek answers.

"Don't you know all about supernatural creatures?" Isaac asks Derek.

"This one is a little out of my league. I've never seen or heard of anything like it." Derek states simply.

"I still think we should kill him. It's the easier option. Besides, I think he has a darker motive ." Peter shrugs. I stuff my hands into my jumper's pockets, clenching my fists. This is not how I thought the pack would be reacting. I thought they'd know that I'm trying to do the right thing. Although, Peter doesn't really surprise me. I wish could just punch him in the face. "That's if you can even catch the Flash. How the hell are we supposed to keep up with someone that fast?" I ask the group.

"I don't know. We've just got to try." Derek shrugs. In my pocket, I intertwine my hands together and start fidgeting. I feel really uncomfortable being here. Who wouldn't be uncomfortable when their pack has basically planned a manhunt for you? Scott sighs in defeat. "Fine. We will find the Flash. Nobody is to hurt him. We'll decide what we do from there. Got that?" Scott asks the pack. Everyone nods, including me.

"One more thing. What if the Flash doesn't only just run fast? What else can he do?" Kira asks. No one gives her an answer, since no one knows. Well, except me, of course. "Was that all we needed to talk about?" Scott asks Derek.
