《The Monster Inside ➺ Scott. M》Chapter 15
Advertisement
Morell was running through the dark woods, running away from the alpha pack. She stopped, throwing mountain Ash in the air as it created a circle around her once it hit the ground. Preventing any werewolves from getting in. The alpha twins ran towards her and were immediately pushed away by the mountain ash, landing on the ground. They growled at the emissary. Kali then jumped towards the emissary, growling at her.
Morell panted inside the circle as the alphas and Scott stood in front of her. "How did you know, Marin? That we'd come for you?" Deucalion asked her as he walked towards her, with Scott at his side.
"Because Jennifer and I are the same. And I know you've always been suspicious of us, of what we can do." Morell replied.
"With good reason" Kali spoke "we know you sent that girl. The one who helped Isaac."
"What was her name?" Deucalion asked.
"Braeden" Morell answered. "And I sent her to do what I've always done, maintain balance."
"What do you know about Jennifer?" Kali asked.
"Nothing more than you know. This isn't you, Scott. Go back to your friends. In fact, I brought Astrid and her brother with me." Morell said and Scott shifted slightly, nervous. Two wolves appeared behind Morell, one black and the other grey. The grey one was slightly bigger and it looked angrier than the black one. Astrid, the black wolf, stood on Morell's right side, whereas, Niklaus, the grey wolf, stood on her left side. Niklaus growled at Kali and she moved back.
"They can fully transform" Kali said quietly, surprise on her face.
"Incredible...He can decide what's right for himself." Deucalion stated while Scott stared at Astrid who stared back at him. He smiled slightly.
"Not without all the information" Morell argued. "Have you told him everything you've done? How you've piled up bodies in a narcissistically psychotic effort to form your perfect pack? Bodies that include Ennis, by the way." Morell looked at Kali. "My brother saved him. He was alive when Deucalion went in to see him. He wants you to go after Derek, Kali. To force his decision. If Derek joins the pack, it paces the way for Scott."
"The lies people will tell when they're begging for their life." Deucalion said.
"Ask him" Morell told Scott. Deucalion took off the end of his cane, revealing the blade. He threw it at Morell and she fell to the ground, exiting the mountain ash circle. Astrid jumped in front of her, growling at the alphas.
Scott rushed to her "hey! Back off." He shouted at the alphas who stopped when he told them to. Morell panted as Scott held her. Astrid and Klaus stood in front of them, growling at the alphas.
Scott pulled the cane out of Morell's shoulder, throwing it aside. "Hey, I'm not going to let them kill you." Scott paused. "But if you know something, if you know where they are..."

"The Nemeton" Morell answered. "You find that, you'll find Jennifer. Find the Nemeton"

"I don't wanna kill your optimism or anything, but, you know, the both of us have been trying to do the exact same thing for hours." Melissa told Chris, who was trying to untie the ropes.
"You been tied up before?" Sheriff asked Chris.
Chris exhaled loudly "many times."
"What, is that a part of being a werewolf hunter?" Sheriff asked him. Chris looked at his surprised
Melissa smiled at Chris and shrugged "I tried to download him on as much as I could."
"Yeah, I was starting to feel a little but left out."
"You knew" Chris stated. "I remember meeting you once before you were a sheriff. You questioned me about a body. You knew something was up. You just weren't ready to believe it."
"You're right" sheriff admitted "there was a night, eight years ago. The night my wife died. I was at the end of a shift, and a call came in. There'd been a pileup, and a young woman, she was a teenager, actually, she was trapped under an overturned car. We had to wait for the paramedics. We were never getting her out. But I was able to hold her hand. She knew she was gonna die. I just kept telling her, 'No, No. Listen, paramedics are on their way.' And I remember her hand suddenly gipped mine so tightly that I... I literally thought she was gonna break the bones. And she looked me in the eyes and said, 'if you wanna be with her, go now.' And I knew she was talking about my wife. But then that other part of my brain, the part that looks for clues, for fingerprints, for logical connections, that part told me that there is no way that this girl could possibly know about Claudia. And so I stayed. I stayed until the paramedics pulled her out." Sheriff paused. "Till her heart stopped beating and they declared her dead. When I finally got to the hospital, i saw Stiles sitting in the waiting room, with his head in his hands. He was with Claudia when she died. But I wasn't. I want with her because I didn't believe. I just did not believe."
------
Lydia, Stiles, Allison, Isaac and Astrid were in the animal clinic with Deaton.
"It had to be on a telluric current, or maybe at the axis of two, or where they all intersect. I just know it's where Derek took Paige to die" Stiles told everyone.
"My dad and Gerard were there once. But Gerard was there years ago and he couldn't remember where it was." Alison said. "And my dad obviously isn't here to tell us now."
"Yeah, mine either."
"Maybe Gerard was lying" Astrid stated.
"I don't think so." Allison answered.
"Where's Klaus?" Stiles asked.
"He's at home."

"Why isn't he helping us?" He asked.
"Love, he doesn't care whether any of you live or die. He's only here because I asked him to help us." Astrid told him.
"It doesn't matter where her brother is" Isaac interrupted. "Now... how do we find this place?"
Everyone looked at Deaton. "There might be a way. But it's dangerous. We're gonna need Scott."
"Well, darlings, let's go get him then" Astrid said, as she clapped her hands, walking towards the exit of the room.
---------
Deaton, Stiles and Astrid were leaning on Stiles' jeep as Scott walked towards them.
"How'd you guys find out?" Scott asked.
"Lydia, you?" Stiles asked.
"Morell... thank you for protecting her, Astrid" Scott said and Astrid nodded. "None of the other alphas know where it is either."
"So if this works, are you gonna tell them?" Stiles asked.
"I can't stop Jennifer without them."
"How about we concentrate on finding your parents first?" Deaton said.
Scott nodded "what's the plan?".
"Essentially, you, Allison and Stiles need to be surrogate sacrifices for your parents." Deaton explained.
"We die for them?" Scott asked.
"He can bring you back" Astrid said, walking towards Scott.
"You can bring us back... right?" Stiles asked Deaton.
"You remember the part where I said it was dangerous?" Deaton asked.
Astrid grabbed Scott's hand gently. "Its going to be alright, love. I promise" she said and Scott smiled at her lovingly, nodding slightly.
"If it goes right, the three of You will be dead for a few seconds. But there's something you need to think about. This is a dangerous thing for more reasons than one." Deaton continued. "You'll be giving power back to the Nemeton, a place that hasn't had power for a long time. This kind of power is like a magnet. It attracts the supernatural, the kind of things that a family like the Argents can fill the pages of a bestiary with. It will draw them here, like a beacon."
"It doesn't sound any worse than anything we've already seen." Stiles said.
Astrid chuckled quietly, letting go of Scott's hand and looking at Stiles. "Stiles, darling, imagine, if this place will literally be like a beacon, it will attract werewolves, vampires, wendigos, witches, hellhouds and many other creatures you have never seen before. Creatures you haven't even heard of before. So, believe me... it would be worse than you can imagine." Stiles looked quite scared after she said that.
"Is that it?" Scott asked nervous.
"No" Deaton replied. "It will also have an effect on the three of You. Allison, Stiles and you, Scott. You won't be able to see it, but you'll feel it every day for the rest of your lives. It'll be a kind of... a darkness around your heart. And permanent, like a scar."
"Like a tattoo." Scott said.
-------
"Its gotta be now. I don't have a choice" Derek told Peter, looking at his dying sister.
"You always have a choice" Peter said. "It's whether or not you can live with the consequences, facing Kali as a beta." Peter told his nephew.
"Yeah, but it's not just a full moon coming. It's a lunar eclipse. We'll all be powerless." Derek said as he grabbed his sister's hand, taking away her pain.
--------
Lydia, Deaton and Astrid put ice into three tubs full of water.
"What did you bring?" Deaton asked the three teenagers who are going to be in the tubs.
"Um, I got my dad's badge." Stiles said "Jennifer kind of crushed it in her hand, so I tried hammering it out a bit. Still doesn't look great."
"It doesn't need to look good if it has a meaning." Astrid smiled as Stiles.
"Is that an actual silver bullet?" Isaac asked Allison, who was holding a bullet.
"Yeah, my dad made it as kind of a ceremonial thing. When one of us finishes learning all the skills to be a hunter, we forge a silver bullet as a statement to the code." Allison said.
"Scott?" Deaton said.
"My dad got my mom this watch when she first got hired at the hospital. She used to say it was the only thing in her marriage that ever worked." Scott answered.
"Okay, the three of You will get in." Deaton said. "Each of us will hold you down until you're essentially, well, dead. But it's not just someone to hold you under. It needs to be someone who can pull you back. Someone that has a strong connection to you, a kind of emotional tether." Lydia began walking towards Allison. "Lydia. You go with Stiles. Isaac you go with Allison. Astrid you go with Scott." Astrid smiled warmly at Scott.
The three slowly entered the tubs full if ice, exhaling loudly as the freezing water hit their skin. Deaton stood in front of the tubs, observing the teenagers. The three shivered in the tubs.
"By the way, if I don't make it back and you do, you should probably know something." Stiles told Scott. "Your dad's in town."
Astrid grabbed Scott's shoulders, massaging them lightly, he grabbed her hand and smiled warmly at her.
------
Derek was taking away Cora's pain, she opened her eyes and looked at her brother. He growled loudly, his eyes red. Peter looked at them, both surprise and amazement on his face.
As Derek took more of her pain, his eyes turned from blood red to a beautiful cold blue.
------
Astrid, Lydia and Isaac pushed the three underwater, staring at each other. They soon let go of the three.
Scott's eyes opened and they were now glowing a beautiful yellow. Astrid sighed as she looked at her boyfriend, hoping that he'll be alright.

The Last Death Mage
Since time immemorial humanity has always feared and shunned what it didn’t understand. Over time this changed a bit to encompass things that didn’t conform to their thoughts and ideals. Due to humanity’s stubbornness with which the enforced their ideals many lives were lost and changed. When humanity first clashed with monsters and the beings that use magic, this trait caused many bloody fights. Over time the fights escalated into battles and full on war on several occasions. Humanity due to their adaptability and persistence won many of these altercations, causing huge casualties to the magical beings. Humanity did not come out unscathed however; many of the empires and civilizations noted in human history fell due to these battles and wars. Eventually over time humanity and the magical beings came to a sort of agreement. Magic and the beings associated with it faded into the background of history, being relegated to myth and legend. Humanity meanwhile advanced leaps and bounds once magic faded, leading to our current level of civilization. Not all magical beings were content with this, thus they did their own actions and killed or fed on humans. This has led to many organizations to be formed concerning this, on both the side of humanity and the side of magical beings. They regulate and control the use of magic as well as protect humanity from the darker things that are now not but myth to them, but there is a reason humanity instinctually fears the dark. Unfortunately there are always those that are unsatisfied by the status quo, and those that are prejudiced against things that are different. This is a story of a young man who wanted nothing more than to be normal. Unfortunately Fate and the world he lives in do not easily allow that this, thus his life changed, not for the better. Everyone has heard of or read stories about monsters and legends, heroes and villains, this is one such story. Hi, this is my second attempt at a story here, the first was before the major overhaul happened and i lost everything related to that story due to PC troubles. I hope you enjoy this if you dont please leave some constructive criticism in the comments. An Editor and the like will be needed, but I will edit as problems are pointed out and as i proof read. This story will have no set schedule, unless of course I decide to type up a bunch in succession then i will note that in a chapter beforehand. ADDED NOTE: most sexual content will be in Interludes or sub chapters with a .5 attached. Profanity and gore however shall be plenty in the actual story, though the descriptives for the gore may be added later. (For example, in the prologue that gave a hint at what happened to the MC, will be enhanced so that the gore invokes more descriptive/complete mental pictures, though it may wait.) ~Tyroth Gideon

Tanka and Haiku
Overview TankaThe tanka poem is very similar to haiku but tanka poems have more syllables and it uses simile, metaphor and personifacation. There are five lines in a Tanka poem. Tanka poems are written about nature, seasons, love, sadness and other strong emotions. This form of poetry dates back almost 1200 years ago.HaikuHaiku poetry hails from Japan and uses strict syllable guidelines rather than focusing on meter or rhyme. Because the poem is short only three lines with 17 total syllables writers must choose words carefully to create meaning. Haiku poetry is typically simplistic, but its meaning can have great depth. Source : Wikipedia You can share my poem but dont copy, Piglarism is a crime. Enjoy reading po. 💕😊💕Ms. Eryl
