Chapitre 1: the bite
AN: this is one of my first fanfics and I followed the story very closely in the first chapters
|McCall House|
A fit black-haired teen is doing exercises in his room and fixing his Lacrosse stick. This teen is Scott McCall. He is now brushing his teeth after finishing his pull ups but stops when a noise rattles him and armed with a bat he goes outside to see what might have caused it.
Suddenly his best friend Stiles Stilinski drops halfway down the roof and is now hanging upside down looking at Scott. Both start screaming, Scott because of the sudden entrance of his friend and Stiles because he got spooked by Scott's reaction.
They settle down recognizing each other and Scott asks shocked "Stiles what the hell are you doing?" still holding his bat ready to defend himself if need be.
"You weren't answering your phone. Why do you have a bat?"Stiles replied hastily.
Scott answered "I thought you were a predator." looking as though it was obvious why he was going around the house with a bat.
After getting over the ridiculous response of his friend Stiles tells him still hanging upside down "OK I know it's late, but you gotta get ready I saw my dad leave 20 minutes ago, dispatch called they' re bringing in every officer from the beacon department and state police."
"For what?"Scott inquires
"Two joggers found a body in the woods."Stiles says, getting down from the patio roof he was still lying on.
"A dead body?"Scott asks looking intrigued.
"No a body of water, yes dumbass a dead body." Stiles says with a deadpan expression. Stiles jumps over the patio railing to be able to talk to Scott face to face.
"You mean like a murder?"Scott asks
"Nobody knows yet, just that it's a girl probably in her twenties." replies Stiles.
"Hold on if they found the body then what are they looking for?" Scott questions.
"That's the best part. They only found half, we're going" Stiles says looking excited.
|Beacon Hills woods|
Scott and Stiles drive in Stiles Jeep into the woods of Beacon Hills in order to go looking for the other half of the body the police is looking for.
"Are we seriously doing this?" Scott says uncertain that what they are doing is wise, while getting out of the Jeep and closing the door.
Stiles carrying a flashlight replies "You're the one who's always bitching that nothing ever happens in this town." patting Scotts shoulder to encourage him to follow him along a path in the woods.
"I was trying to get a good nights sleep before practice tomorrow." Scott tells Stiles as a means to justify why he is not as excited as usual about going on an adventure.
"Right `cause sitting on the bench is such a grueling effort." Stiles tells Scott snarkily.
"No because I'm playing this year. In fact I'm making first line"
"Hey that's the spirit, everyone should have a dream even a pathetically unrealistic one."
"Out of curiosity, which half of the body are we looking for?"
"Huh I didn't even think about that" Stiles says realizing his lack of information at which Scott chuckles.
"And uh, what if whoever killed the body is still out here?" Scott asks with a grin on his face.
"Also something I didn't think about."Stiles says getting a little bit scared.
They reach a hill and start climbing it.
"It's comforting to know you planned this out with your usual attention to detail." Scott says sounding winded.
"I know" Stiles says reaching the top with Scott just behind him
"Maybe the severe asthmatic should be the one holding the flashlight, huh?" Scott says leaning on a tree to get his inhaler.
A bit further into the woods Scott and Stiles throw themselves onto the ground and hide in a small ditch, because they see multiple people with flashlights approaching them.
"Come on!" Stiles says turning off his flashlight then getting up and running of into the woods.
Scott uses his inhaler and then gets up to follow his best friend exclaiming "Stiles wait up"
Scott loosing sight of Stiles whispers "Stiles!" in hope of an answer as to where the teen has run off to.
Meanwhile Stiles is still running ahead and hears a louder "Stiles!" from Scott to which he turns around only to see that Scott is nowhere in sight. As he turns back around he gets belled at by a dog who is held back by one of the police officers searching the woods. Surprised and scared Stiles falls to the ground shielding his face with his arms.
"how're you doing?" Stiles says.
"So do you uh, listen in on all my phone calls?" Noah Stilinski inquires.
"No, well not the boring ones." Stiles replies while standing up.
"And where is your usual partner in crime?" Noah asks looking for Scott , not seeing him because Scott hid behind a tree when he saw that Stiles got caught.
"What, Scott? Scott's home. He said he wanted to get a good nights sleep before his first day back at school tomorrow. Stiles says while still getting over the shock of almost getting mauled by a dog. "Just me in the woods alone." Stiles says not sounding very convincing.
"Scott you out there? Scott!" the sheriff shouts while shining around with his flashlight in hopes of catching a sign of Scott.
Seeing nothing he sighs and grabs his son by the back of his hoodie and dragging him away "Well young man, I'm gonna walk you back to your car. Then you and I are going to have a conversation about something called invasion of privacy."
Scott waits for Stiles and his father to leave, then gets out of his hiding place and walks back the way he came while still looking around so that he doesn't also gets caught by a police officer. A little bit further in the woods on his way back home, suddenly a horde of deers come running at Scott who falls down frightened and almost getting trampled by the horde of deers who jump over him, which causes him to drop his inhaler. Looking confused as to what just happened Scott stand up dusting himself of, he then takes his phone out of his pocket and uses an app with which he can light the ground ahead of him.
He starts looking for his inhaler but comes across the upper half of the dead girl which causes him to jump back screaming and falling the hill he and Stiles climbed earlier down backwards, hitting some trees along the way. Scott then stands up and still somewhat stunned gets back to going back home.
Suddenly he hears a growl behind him, turning around Scott sees a wolf like creature with slightly more human like front paws. They stare at each other for just a second and one moment later the wolf jumps on Scott who screams for help to no avail pulling him across the wet ground of the woods and bites into his side. Scott feeling the weight on him disappear takes this opportunity to run away and towards the street. Tumbling out of the woods Scott doesn't realize that he is running in front of a car which to his luck swerves to the side and avoids running him over. Hearing a wolves howl Scott gets home as fast as possible and puts a bandage on his bite wound.
|Next day at School|
Today is the first day back at school for Scott and he rides to school by bike. While he is locking his bike in front of the school Jackson the school Jock pulls up in an expensive car and parks next to where Scott is chaining his bike. With the greeting "dude watch the paint job" Jackson makes his way into the school building.
Scott waits for Stiles who soon arrives upon seeing his best friend Scott decides to inform him of what happened yesterday night.
After being told that he was bitten, Stiles wanted to see his bite mark. Scott shows him his bandaged side where a little bit blood seeped through.
"It was too dark to see much but I'm pretty sure it was a wolf." Scott tells Stiles, pulling his shirt back over his bandaged side.
"A wolf bit you? No not a chance." Stiles replied
"I heard a wolf howling." Scott argues trying to get Stiles to believe him.
"No you didn't." Stiles counters chuckling
"What do you mean no I didn't, how do you know what i heard?" Scott asks thinking Stiles is being ridiculous.
"Because California doesn't have wolves. Not in like 60 years"
"Really?"
"Yes really, there are no wolves in California." Stiles replies believing it to be common knowledge.
"Well if you don't believe me about the wolf then you're definitely not gonna believe me when I tell you I found the body." Scott says looking excited.
"Are you kidding me?" Stiles asks jittery
"No I wish I'm gonna have nightmares for a month." Scott answers still scared by the memory of finding the body
"That is freaking awesome. I mean seriously this is the best thing that has happened to this town since the birth of Lydia Martin, Hey Lydia." Stiles says, greeting Lydia a cute looking redhead who was walking by them. Lydia who shows no sign of acknowledging either of them walks past them and into the school.
"Yeah I know what you mean" Scott says.
"Man get it together Stiles you promised yourself you would be getting over your crush on Lydia during this semester." Stiles tells himself.
"Yeah well good luck with that I don't think I would have much success in that endeavor."Scott says.
"That is only cause at least she talks to you every other week when you are working at the vet." Stiles replies.
"Oh you there, check up on Prada" Scott says trying to make a Lydia impression.
"He's fine."
"OK, goodbye."Scott says again in his Lydia impression
"Man what great conversations we have, Stiles you are right, I don't know what I would do without those." Scott jokes while going into the school building and towards his classroom with Stiles.
|classroom|
Scott and Stiles are sitting in their classroom, with their classmates listening to their teacher giving a speech. "As you all know there indeed was a body found in the woods last night and I am sure your eager little minds are coming up with various macabre scenarios as to what happened, but I am here to tell you that the police have a suspect in custody which means, you can give your undivided attention to the syllabus which is on your desks outlining this semester." during this speech Scott looks to Stiles for confirmation who only shrugs his shoulders signaling that this is the first time he has heard of the police having a suspect.
As everyone begins to look at the paper to see whats going to happen during this semester Scott hears a phone ringing really loud, he looks around and sees that he appears to be the only one noticing this. Looking around for the source of the ringing he witnesses a brown haired girl wearing a brown Jacket and blue jeans answering her phone outside in front of the school and can hear her part of the phone conversation.
"Mom three calls on my first day is a little overdoing it. Everything except a pen, oh my god I didn't actually forget a pen. OK I gotta go love ya." Scott sees their principal going to the girl
"Sorry you had to wait, so you were saying San Francisco is where you grew up?" Scott hears him say.
"No but we lived there for over a year, which is unusual for my family." She replies.
"Well hopefully Beacon Hills will be your last stop at least for a while." The principal says trying to lighten the mood.
Scott can hear their footsteps advancing towards his classroom and sees the two of them come in. The Principal then introduces the girl saying" Class this is our new student, Allison Argent just do your best to make her feel welcome.
Meanwhile Scott tore off a piece of paper from the papers their teacher gave them and wrote a quick message for Stiles, offer the new girl a pen!
When they come in and his principal introduces her he passes the note to Stiles who sits on the left of the only empty seat in the class room which happens to be behind his.
Stiles reading the note takes out one of his pens and offers it to Allison as she sat down saying "do you need a pen?"
"Yeah thanks." She replied smiling brightly grateful that she has one less thing to worry about though she then takes on a thoughtful expression on how Stiles knows that she doesn't have a pen but dismisses it, deciding to focus on the lecture.
Stiles is instantly mesmerized by her beauty and turns Scott's note around and writes, I think I'm over Lydia! Handing the note to Scott secretly who then reads it and smirks to himself.
|School hallway after first period|
As students begin to fill the hallway after the bell rung signaling the end of their first period, Allison is looking for her locker and finds it relatively quick.
Stiles and Scott see this since Scotts locker is located near hers. Turning around she sees Stiles and smiles at him. Shortly after she is approached by Lydia Martin saying "that jacket is absolutely killer, where did you get it?"
Allison answers "My mum was a buyer for a boutique back in San Francisco."
"And you are my new best friend." Lydia says grinning. Then Jackson who happens to be Lydia's boyfriend approaches her and greets Lydia with a "Hey" and a kiss.
Meanwhile still watching the exchange between Allison and Lydia Stiles asks Scott "Man thanks for the tip with the pen, how did you know that she didn't have one though?"
"Call it a guess" Scott says trying to play it off as a coincidence even though he is still freaked out at how he can hear far better than he's supposed to at times.
A girl from their class approaches the two and asks annoyed "Can someone tell me how new girl is here only 5 minutes and she's already hanging out with Lydia's clique?"
"Because she's hot, beautiful people heard together." Stiles answers awkwardly.
Scott then hears the conversation going on over at the other part of the hall between Allison ,Lydia and Jackson and starts staring at Lydia going unnoticed.
"So, this weekend is a party." Lydia says.
"A party?" Allison asks.
"Yeah Friday night and you should come."Jackson invites her.
"Uh I can't it's family night this Friday, but thanks for asking." Allison says unconvincingly.
"You sure? I mean everyone is going after the scrimmage." Jackson says trying to convince her to go.
"You mean like football?"Allison asks.
"football is a joke in Beacon Hills OK, the sport here is Lacrosse. We have won State-championships for the past three years." Jackson says bragging.
"All because of a certain team captain." Lydia says hugging Jackson.
"Well we have practice in a few minutes, that is if you don't have anywhere else you need to be."
Jackson invites her.
"Well I was going to." Allison starts to reply but gets cut off by Lydia taking control and saying" perfect, come on:" while taking Allisons hand and dragging her along smiling.
Scott then turns his attention back to Stiles who finishes talking to their classmate and tells him "Hey Stiles if you want another tip with the new girl, asks her out to the party after the scrimmage, I heard her say something about family night earlier but it didn't sound very convincing."
"Oh Scott when did you become Beacon Hills resident gypsie?" Stiles retorts
"Shut up!" Scott says annoyed with his friends antics.
|Lacrosse Field|
Scott and Stiles both in their Lacrosse uniforms approach the Field talking. "But if you play I don't know who to talk to when I'm on the bench? Are you really gonna do that to your best fiend?" Stiles argues.
"I can't sit out again. My whole life is sitting on the sidelines. This season I make first line!" Scott says convinced that this time he is gonna achieve his goal.
Reaching the edge of the field near the bleachers they stop and see Allison and Lydia taking a seat on the upper half of the bleachers. Allison smiles at Stiles again and then they get approached by their coach yelling "McCall!"
"Yeah?" he answers.
"You're in goal." He says throwing him the necessary equipment for a goalie.
"But I've never played." Scott says confused
"I know scoring some shots, will give the boys a confidence boost, it's a first day back thing." The coach tells him the reason for his decision and slapping Scott on his shoulder encouragingly.
"Get them energized, fire them up!" Coach says grinning.
"But what about me? Scott asks.
"Try not to take any in the face. Let's go, come on!" Coach says turning to the other players of the team.
As he is getting to the goal, Allison recognizes Scott and Stiles and asks Lydia nodding in their direction. "Who are they? I noticed them sitting near me during English class"
"Oh the one in goal is Scott McCall and the other one is Stiles something, but they are practically nobodys." Lydia says.
Scott who stood in goal waiting had enhanced hearing again and listens to the conversation frowning slightly.
As he was listening to the conversation the Assistant-Coach blew into his whistle signaling the start of the training. Scott with his super hearing still active clutches at is helmet in hopes of making the ringing stop but gets a hit by a Lacrosse ball from the first player which causes him to fall down.
As he is getting up while being laughed at he expects for things to get worse since he has no experience in goal and will make a fool out of himself. But to his surprise he can see the balls of the other players as if they were in slow motion and he easily catches all of them, getting a cheer from the crowd on the bleachers.
Jackson who doesn't like not being the center of attention cuts in front of the next players and gets ready to shoot. And even though he tried hard to get a goal against Scott, Scott still catches the ball, receiving an even louder round of cheers from the bleachers, much to Scotts and Jacksons surprise the loudest of which coming from Lydia. Scott grins happy that his longtime secret crush cheers him on instead of her ass of a boyfriend. After the practice was finished Scott came up to Stiles who tells him to go ahead and wait by his Jeep after he changed. Already getting an idea as to what Stiles is up to Scott decides to do as he is told. Meanwhile Stiles approaches Allison who is still sitting with Lydia and asks "Hey Allison, can I talk to you real quick?" getting a nod he leads her a few steps to the side so they can talk in private.
"I guess I' ll introduce myself first since you met me this morning for the first time, my name is Stiles Stilinski, and I was wondering if you wanted to go to the party this weekend together? I overheard you saying you don't have time because of family night, but in case you want to go and are able to put off family night I would really like it if I could go with you to the party." Stiles says trying not to stutter too hart, since this is the first time he actually asked out a girl.
Allison smiling because she finds Stiles shy and flustered nature cute answers "give me your number, I'll text you my address later so you can pick me up."
|In the woods|
Scott and Stiles go back into the woods after school looking for Scotts inhaler which he is still missing and the upper half of the body Scott saw yesterday night. During the walk back to the place where Scott found the body he thought about telling Stiles about his experience during the game and him being able to hear unnaturally good but decided against it because he doesn't want Stiles to freak out over something that may be just in his head. So he replies to Stiles obvious question on how he was able to be so good in goal Scott replied "beginners luck I guess, but more importantly what was Allisons answer? You asked her to the party right?"
"Yeah thanks again man, you were right on with that, I don't know how you knew but I could really care less since I got a date with a hot girl out of it." Stiles says grinning from ear to ear while hugging Scott.
When they reach the place where Scott tumbled down the Hill and found the body Scott looks around confused and says "I could have sworn this was it, where I found the body the deer came running and I dropped my inhaler."
"Maybe the killer moved the body." Stiles offers as an explanation.
"If he did I hope he left my inhaler, those things are like 80 bucks." Scott says down about not being able to find any of the things he came out here to find.
Unnoticed by the 2 teens Derek Hale a black haired teen, older than Scott and Stiles wearing all black clothing with a black leather jacket came up behind them and stands there waiting for them to notice him. Stiles looking around notices him and alerts Scott with a tap on the shoulder to turn around. Seeing that they finally notice him Derek approaches and questions " What are you doing here? Huh? This is private property."
"Ah sorry man we didn't know" Stiles says bummed out that they were getting into trouble for nothing.
"Yeah we're just here looking for something but, forget it." Scott says while being tense around Derek.
Derek throws Scott the inhaler he was looking for, turns around and leaves without saying another word.
"Alright come on man I gotta get to work" Scott says still weirded out by meeting Derek.
"Dude, that was Derek Hale, you remember right? He's only like a few years older than us." Stiles says stunned about meeting Derek.
"Remember what?" Scott asks.
"His family, they all burned to death in a fire like 10 years ago." Stiles explained
"I wonder what he's doing back." Scott says.
|Beacon Hills Animal Clinic|
It is late in the evening and Scott just about finished his shift at the Animal Clinic. He just finished cleaning up, while his boss Deaton left about half an hour ago and locks the front door while turning the open sign to closed. Going into the bathroom of the Animal Clinic with some disinfectant Scott removes his bandage from his left side expecting the bite mark and having to clean it again, to his shock the bite mark is gone. After getting over his shock he decided to do his last job for the day which is feeding the animals in the back of the vet office. To his surprise as soon as he enters the room all the animals go crazy hissing, barking and rattling on the cages and trying to get out. Freaked out Scott gets out of the back part of the office and closes the door behind him which causes the animals to calm down. Suddenly Scott hears a loud knocking at the front door.
Going to check out what's going on he unlocks the door opens it and comes face to face with a wet and crying Lydia Martin who starts to ramble on about Prada, her dog. Scott tells her "Calm down Lydia whats wrong with Prada?"
Lydia still panicked as hell manages to calms down slightly and tells him still crying "Prada is hurt I let him out in the backyard and the next thing I know I hear barking and whimpering behind the fence Prada went, so I went to look what happened and found Prada lying there, he probably got into a fight with another animal."
Grasping what the situation is Scott says "OK, let me take a look at him, if it isn't too severe I will take care of it, if it is we will take him to Deatons home."
Scott and Lydia go to her car and she opens her passenger side door where Prada lies with a bloodied side. Scott takes Prada gently out of the car and hurries inside because it was currently raining. Lydia locking her car follows instantly. Scott goes into the exam room and puts Prada on the table. Putting on gloves Scott takes a cotton piece and a water sprayer and cleans the part where Prada is bleeding.
After washing away most of the blood he sees that Prada only has a relatively light scratch and starts patching him up telling Lydia "I can take care of this, it isn't as bad as it seems he only got a scratch probably from a cat. I will clean the wound disinfect it and put a bandage on him and in 2-3 days he will be as good as new."
Looking up to get the disinfectant he notices that Lydias clothes are soaked and she is shivering quite badly so he offers her some dry clothes saying "Oh I have a shirt in my back, here."
Lydia taking the clothes says a hurried thank you and goes in the other room to change her shirt.
Scott takes a quick peek but mentally tells himself "no, you are better than that" so he gets back to fixing Prada.
A few minutes after Lydia comes back in with Scotts shirt on he finishes up put Prada back into Lydias waiting arms. Lydia who is surprised that Scott actually is this nice to her since she only ignores him or orders him around decides to invite Scott to her party. "So Scott, as you know tomorrow after the scrimmage I'm throwing a party and as thanks for helping Prada I'm formally inviting you to come, you could have come anyway since you are on the team but since you never came before, I really would like it if you could make to the party this time."
Scott getting over his shock that Lydia actually is being nice, accepts her invitation.
"Yeah thanks, since someone actually invited me this time I wouldn't miss it for the world." Scott exclaimed smiling.
"Well thank you for helping Prada again and thanks for the shirt, I should get going and get him home now." Lydia says but looses her grip on Prada for a moment who immediately runs into the storage room with the other animals. Hurrying after him both Lydia and Scott see him sitting in front of a rather large cage with a coyote sitting in it.
Prada barks at them and Scott picks him up and hands him to Lydia who is waiting at the door. Going back to the coyote and thankful that this time the animals didn't freak out and wanted to rip him to shreds notices that the coyote has a decent sized splinter sticking out of his paw. So with all the care he could muster he sticks his hand into the cage receiving a worried "what are you doing?" from Lydia.
"The coyote has a splinter in its paw, your Prada really has good instincts." But as you would imagine the coyote feels threatened and bites into his arm. Screaming out in pain Scott takes out the splinter with his other arm and tries not to move his bitten arm so that he doesn't make the wound worse by pulling his skin off by trying to free his arm forcefully. The Coyote realizes that its pain in the paw is gone and releases Scotts arm. Scott pulls his arm out slowly and then cradles it saying "Son of a bitch that hurts."
"Do you want some help with that?" Lydia offers getting closer to Scott to take a look to see how she can help.
"No thanks I know what to do with bite wounds, you should probably get Prada back home now."
Scott says trying not to show his pain, because Lydia helping could be a problem if this bite wound heals faster than the one from the wolf and she sees it, he will be renowned as freak for the rest of his life.
"OK if you say so." Lydia says unsure but decides to go home anyway to take care of Prada.
"Yeah, thanks for the offer though but I think it's better that I take care of it myself plus my mom is a nurse so when I get home I can get it professionally treated anyway." Scott says trying to grin despite the pain and going with her to her car. "By the way it would probably be good if you come to the vet in 2 days again so that Deaton can take a look. I will take another look at Prada tomorrow at the party if that's OK with you." Scott tells Lydia.
"Yeah I would really appreciate it, see you tomorrow then, Bye." Lydia says getting into her car and driving home.
"Bye" Scott says and goes back in to treat his hand. After he finishes feeding the animals he leaves a note for Deaton saying The Coyote had a splinter in its right paw I removed it, you should take another look to see if I missed something. Scott then locks the doors again and makes his way home.
