The Hunter and A Werewolf- Allison Argent

1.11.2

I walk up to my house looking around carefully. I spot a car outside of the house and hide behind a tree as a big guy gets out of the car. He starts walking somewhere as I follow carefully behind him. I hear a noise behind me and quickly turn around to find Peter behind me. I turn back around and see the guy nowhere to be seen. "Peter?? Way to go! That could have been our ticket to finding Derek right there!" I whisper angrily.

"I'm not worried about Derek right now. I'm worried about you." He tells me. "Me?" I ask curiously and he nods. He motions for me to follow and I think about it for a minute. This is exactly how a horror movie would go before the victim gets murdered. "Why should I trust following you?" I question him suspiciously. "Madison I just want to show you something" He tells me. I sigh and hesitantly start following him. We walk deep into the woods as I keep my hands in my pockets.

He leads me all the way to an empty area with a wolf statue in the middle. I furrow my eyebrows as we walk up to it. He stands to the side and motions to it. I raise an eyebrow at him. I kneel down in front of it. "Here lies Patrick Ian Hale. A wise, faithful man who was taken from us. We can't name specifics of what happened but the whole family will miss him dearly." I read out loud. I look back at Peter and he nods.

"Your mother was devastated when he was killed. I remembered having to calm her down and keep her away from you. She didn't want you to know where he was buried and when he was buried." He tells me. I look back at the statue and run my hand over it. I look back over at him trying to not break down. "Why did you bring me here?" I ask him. "I remember when it happened. He was chasing you through the woods with those needles he would always seem to use on you. I was the only one that knew what he did to you. I'd watch him do it all the time and see you in so much pain. Terrible sight I must say. I followed him to make sure you were okay."

"You stopped right here and turned around..." He says pointing to where the statue was. "And you didn't look frightened. You didn't look angry. You looked determined. Like you had enough. He starts getting closer to you and you lashed out. I went to pull you off of him but it was too late. He was gone." He tells me. I quickly start wiping my tears away and I look down at the ground.

"I calmed you down as your eyes turned the blue they are now. I remember you looking over at your father and then down at your hands which were covered in blood. You started panicking but I stayed with you. I took care of you. I kept you safe. I convinced the family that you deserved a second chance" He explains as more tears fall.

He kneels in front of me and lifts my chin up and our eyes lock. "Madison, if I don't have you on my side the hunters will come after us again. And they'll get more people to burn our house down. They'll be no Hale's left. I need you on my side and I need Scott. If you and Scott join Derek and I, we can take down those hunters. And we'll leave Allison so you can have her" He tells me.

I look down at the ground in deep thought before looking up at him and nodding. A smile appears on his face and he stands up. "I'll try and find Derek. I need you to be the one to get Scott to join us. He won't listen to me" Peter tells me. I nod and he walks away. I look back over at the statue. "I'm sorry mom" I manage to say as I stare at the dates on the statue. "I'm sorry".

I walk into the boy's locker room keeping my head down. I walk over to my locker to find Scott sitting on the bench in deep thought. "Hey? Everything okay?" I question curiously. "Coach won't let me go to the dance because I'm failing" He tells me. "What?? Now way! Can I still go to the dance?" I ask thinking to myself. "How am I supposed to ask Allison to the dance if I can't go?" Scott asks me.

"Hey" Stiles says setting his bag down next to Scott. He notices Scott immediately. "What's wrong?" He questions. "I can't go to the dance. How am I supposed to take Allison and protect her from Peter?" Scott sighs. Stiles looks up at me with a smirk. "Madison can-" "No. I don't think she would want to" I quickly tell him. "Maybe Jackson" Stiles suggests. "Jackson??" Scott and I ask in disbelief.
