"Look who's here", Boyd smiled when he saw me enter the Hale house.

"Diaz, wanna get another bite?", Derek laughed.

"Seems like you sadly didn't die after the first one. Your witch game is strong", Erica stated.

"Sounds like she wants to die now", Klaus smirked and he looked at me waiting for an answer,"What do you think, love?".

"I bet we can help her with that", I said with a devilish smile. Klaus calling me love triggered Isaac and he immediately stood in front of him.

"You should better leave, before I'll make you", Isaac hissed.

Klaus only laughed:"Who do you think you are? I'm the original hybrid. I'm over a thousand years old. You're nothing compared to me!". Isaac stepped back while Derek moved closer saying.

"Better watch out Hale", I smirked while I put my hybrid face on,"You've decided to mess with the wrong ones". Klaus also prepared for the fight.

Derek and his pack stood on the opposite of us. The werewolves turned. We faced each other. Everyone knew that this time the fight will decide about life and death.

But then Scott came out of nowhere. He stood between the two sides. Making Derek say:"Either choose one side and fight or get out of the way".

"No stop", he howled in his werewolf form. Klaus gave me a "really?"-look and I had to hide my giggle.

"You can't fight. We have to stay together!", Scott explained and no one stopped him,"You all can fight, but then stand on one side! Our opponent is the kanima".

"Why? What happened?", I asked, because I could sense the fear in his blood.

"Stiles dad was attacked". I was shocked and Derek seemed to be too. He made his whole pack turn back to human form again.

"Did something happen to Stiles? Where is he?", I questioned quickly. I already forgot about the fight. Scott was right.

"No he's fine for now. He's with his dad in the hospital", Scott explained.

"It's fine, love", Klaus whispered in my ear,"Look after your friend and I'll go home. If something happens just call me".

I gave him a quick hug. He was able to feel how important Stiles was to me since I opened up to him. It was a great reassurance that Klaus understood me. Then he left.

"I'll come with you", I said to Scott, then turned to Derek,"If you or one of your pathetic puppies get to close to me or my friends again, then we will fight Hale. And trust me, you'll lose".

Before I was able to follow Scott, I could hear Derek laughing:"Oh I'm really intimidated".

I exhaled annoyed. This fucking idiot. I used my vampire speed and stood in front of him. Before he could react I pushed my hand through his chest and was able to feel his heart beating. Everyone eyes widened, while Derek stared at me with disbelief and shock.

"You know what I always like to say", I fake smiled,"The fastest way to a man's heart is by tearing a hole through his rib cage".

Then I leaned in and whispered in Derek's ear:"Don't underestimate my power, Hale. You don't even know me". Then I left him with his still beating heart and his pack alone.

„Jolene?", Scott asked to get my attention, while I was driving us to the hospital,"Thank you for sparing Derek".

"Trust me Scotty boy", I answered,"Derek fucking Hale and his pack are nothing to me. Stiles is obviously more important. I can kill Hale later".

"Why do you wanna kill him so bad?", the omega asked.

"Because he is a pain in the ass. The only thing he does is hurt me or be a bitch", I explained.

"Well that sounds just like Derek", Scott smiled,"But I feel like he is mad at you. Not only because you didn't join his pack. I mean Derek doesn't care about hurting me like he does about you. Do you know why?".

"Oh I have no clue", I shrugged.

"Anyways, what is it with you and Stiles?", Scott asked.

I turned around to him:"Why does everyone ask me that?". He just smiled.

"There's nothing", Scott gave me a 'really?'-look so I continued,"We just talked and I opened up to him".

"So that's why he didn't want to tell me", Scott said but I got out of my car.

He followed me:"Why did you tell him about it? You seem to trust no one but him".

"Because I can trust nobody", I explained as we were walking towards the hospital,"It's because of my past".

"Why Stiles?", the omega asked and opened the door for me.

"I don't know. It's just different with him. I thought that I could trust Isaac too, but turns out I can't".

"Will you tell us about your past one day?", Scott questioned.

"Maybe one day", I smiled,"If you don't fuck it up".

Scott smiled back at me and lead me to Mr Stilinskis room:"Are you going to be okay with the blood and stuff?".

"Yes I'll be fine", I nodded,"I'm used to humans already".

"Jolene! Scott!", Stiles said as he got up to hug us,"Thank god you're here".

"How's your dad doing?", I asked and briefly looked at him laying in the hospital bed.

"He has a few cuts and lost some blood. He was paralyzed too but the doctor says he's going to be fine".

"That's great", I said and moved closer to the sheriff. I could sense an energy. When I touched his hand I was able to feel his body fighting.

"Jolene? Are you okay?", Scott said and grabbed my shoulders softly as I was starting to tremble.

"Yeah I'm fine", I exhaled,"It's just". But I stopped and gave the boys a sign that we should talk outside.

"What is it?", Stiles said.

"His body is fighting and he's going to make it", I explained,"But I could feel an energy. A bad energy. The kanima will come for us again, because Stiles dad is not what it wanted".

"That what did it want?", Scott asked.

"I have to clue", I shrugged.

Then Stiles spoke up:"What if it wants me?". Scott and I looked at each other with widened eyes.

"Stiles. Tonight we're all going to stay at yours to keep you safe and plan something to stop the kanima", Scott explained and we all agreed.

"We know that the kanima is a shapeshifter. So it has to be another human. It only kills murderers and a kanima has to be controlled by someone", Stiles put it in a nutshell.

"Now we have to find out, who the kanima and the master is", I smiled and took a sip of my cup,"Then we'll kill them".

"What?!", Scott stood up shocked,"Obviously no!".

"Is he always like this?", I asked annoyed and turned to Lydia and Allison,"He always has to save everyone. Even the bad ones".

"Yes he is", Lydia said.

"And I love it", Allison whispered, which made me smile.

"Who could it be then?", I asked Scott. He sat back down next to Allison on one couch. I was sitting next to Lydia on another and Stiles in the armchair.

"I don't know", he put his arm around Allison.

"How do you even turn into a kanima?", Lydia asked curious.

"Well the bite turns you into a creature that represent yourself. It doesn't always have to be a werewolf", Stiles said as he was thinking.

We all stood silent and thought. I took another sip of my cup, which made Scott look up:"Do you smell that?".

"It's blood", I said and pointed to my cup,"You never know when you have to be ready to fight". He shook his head with a smile.

Then it hit me and I quickly jumped up:"Who did Derek bite too?".

"I don't know", Stiles said,"We have to ask him". I rolled my eyes. Not Hale again.

"Actually", Allison spoke up,"I remember Jackson always wanting to be like Scott after he turned".

"If Jackson is the Kanima", I turned to Lydia and held her hand,"That would explain, why he's so distant with you". She lowered her gaze.

"Lydia why do you think?", Allison asked with a calm voice.

"It could be possible", Lydia answered and she faced me,"What if he really is the kanima?".

"It's going to be fine Lydia", I hugged her for comfort. I learned that from Stiles. Whenever he hugged me, I felt better.

"If he really is the Kanima then we'll help him", Scott assured.

"But who's the one, that controls Jackson then?", Stiles asked. I shook my head. Lydia had no clue too.

Allison wanted to say something, but she got cut off by someone entering Stiles house. The Hale pack.

"The four musketeers. The fucking Hale pack", I grinned,"You're not welcome".

"Shut up Diaz", Derek hissed back and walked towards me. I stood up and reduced the distance between us.

"Make me, Hale".
