"Thanks, Deaton." Buffy tells the Vet as she finishes filling him on the Master's remains being missing, hoping that he would be able to figure out what was going down and quick. The sooner she dealt with this hopefully the sooner she would be able to sleep again.
Hanging up the phone she tosses it on her bed before laying back staring at the ceiling, she didn't want another night of nightmares, she just couldn't deal with this right now.

As she lays back she frowns as she feels a new presence enter the room, sitting up she turns her head and there he was, leaning against her open window watching her curiously.

"Hello."
Derek smiles at the blonde before frowning as she doesn't even look at him, moving into her room he crouches down in front of her "Are you okay?"
Buffy merely shrugs forcing a smile on her face "Peachy." At her attitude Derek frowns, he could practically smell the anger and fear on her and it was clearly affecting her "I heard you were back."
"Surprise." She jokes before sighing and running a hand through her hair "So how's Alpha life?"

Derek frowns before reaching over and taking her hand causing her to take a deep breath "They are trying to bring him back." She admits looking down at him with a terrified look on her face, it was probably the most emotion she had shown since she had gotten back.

Derek's eyes widen at that, he couldn't really imagine how petrified she was right now, the monster had literally killed her and she had almost died a second time trying to finally kill him. If they managed to bring him back then it was all for nothing, all that trauma.

Standing he moves to sit beside her and slowly wraps one of his arms around her letting her rest her head on his chest, Buffy takes a deep breath, being in his arms made her feel safe for a moment, like her whole life wasn't about to be guzzled up whole.
"Will you stay with me?"

Derek smiles and kisses her forehead "Till you fall asleep."

Buffy smiles before laying back resting her head on his chest listening to his heartbeat, using it to keep her centered and calm, it was still so weird how all of her fear melted away when he was around, so she just laid there in his arms until finally, the darkness consumed her.

"Buffy! Buffy?" Buffy jumps as she hears her name being called, turning from her seat staring out the window in the library she looks over at Scott and Stiles who were moving to sit at her table. "I'm fine." She mumbles making Stiles chuckle "Cool. Cause we so thought you were on the not so fine scale."

Buffy giggles softly as she brings her knee up to her chest and looks at her two best friends as they pull out their own lunches, Scott tossing Buffy's hers from his bag too.
As she catches it Scott looks up at the blonde in confusion "What's up?"
"Nothing." She says sweetly, but it wasn't exactly convincing, the dumbest person alive would be able to realize it was not nothing going on in that Slayer head of hers.

Stiles arches a brow and nudges her "Come on tell us all your deep dark secrets."
"Pretty sure we know all of them by now." Scott points out with a smirk biting into his sandwich.
Buffy rolls her eyes in amusement and shakes her head "Don't be so sure. I can be secret gal. But really, I wasn't thinking anything."

"Buffy!" Lydia screams as she runs into the library making Buffy panic, what was going on, the look Lydia's face terrified her, something big must have happened "Hey what's wrong?"

"I saw..." She stutters "...a vampire...I think...his face was all gross and really un-moisturized."

Buffy's eyes widen and she steps forward placing a comforting hand on Lydia's shoulder "Hey it's fine. It's daylight. We're safe. Trust me."
Lydia merely chuckles "We're not safe. I mean you aren't, it won't be too hard to kill you again."
Buffy's eyes widen, what the hell did she just say "What?"

Before Buffy could do anything Lydia backhands her with such strength it sent her flying backward and onto a nearby table before she climbs on top of Buffy and wraps her hands around her throat.
Buffy whimpers in panic as she tries to shove Lydia off of her but she couldn't, it made no sense, Lydia was human but she couldn't even get her to budge and the boys were just sat there watching as they ate their sandwiches.

The blonde continues to grunt in effort as she tries to force Lydia off her, pushing against the strawberry blonde's face she tries desperately to get her off and grabs her hair only for Lydia's entire face to peel off leaving The Master staring down at her as he continued to choke her.

Buffy gasps in a panic and shoots up in her bed gasping for breath as she grabs her neck trying to reassure herself that it was nothing but a dream. It was a dream. It was a dream. She repeats in her head until finally, her breathing calms down, sighing she looks around her room and she couldn't help but pout at the empty bed, Derek must have left a few hours ago probably before Melissa got home. That was probably a good thing it would be kind of hard to explain to Melissa why she had him in her bed.

Running a shaky hand through her hair the blonde stares out of her open window for a moment before she looks over at the clock, it was 8.30, groaning she climbs out of bed and quickly changes however as she moves to grab her bag she freezes before shaking her head and grabbing the bag from under her bed instead, the one filled with weapons.

Throwing it over her shoulder she grabs her leather jacket before climbing out of the window.

"Buffy, you ready?" Scott asks as he knocks on the blonde's door, groaning at the smell of a familiar werewolf "Please tell me Derek's not here again."
When there is no answer he frowns in confusion before pushing her room door all the way open only for his eyes to widen, where the hell was she?

"Wait she was just gone?" Stiles asks Scott for the fifth time as they walk towards the gates of the school.
Scott nods, he was confused as hell himself, something was really going on with her and it was killing him that he couldn't help her, she was family and it sucked that he couldn't fix this for her. But what he could fix maybe...was her two current disasters The Master and Lydia.

"Yeah, I mean I know she slept there, she must have snuck out, but Stiles..." Looking around to make sure no one was listening he lowers his voice slightly "Her weapons bag, the one under her bed it was gone."
Stiles groans this was bad news, they had a missing possible werewolf, a psycho vampire that may be getting resurrected and now an emotional Slayer with tons of weapons. Why could their lives never be easy?! "We gotta find her man."

"We will." Scott promises "But if she's taken weapons she prepping for tonight, she's probably training in the woods with Derek. So if we wanna help I say we take one of the problems off her list. We find Lydia."
Stiles nods in agreement, neither of them had any idea where the kid royalty vampire annoying one was anyway, maybe figuring out where Lydia could be was the best they could do right now "Okay. Well, you're the test case for this so we should be going over what happened to you."
Scott couldn't help but frown, he already had a feeling he wasn't going to like where this was going "What do you mean?"
"I mean, like what was going through your mind when you were turning, you know? What were you drawn too?"

At the question, a goofy lovesick smile covers the werewolf's face "Allison."
Stiles couldn't help but groan in disgust "Okay, nothing else? Seriously?"
"Nothing else mattered. But, no, that's good, though, right? Cause the night that Lydia was bitten, she was with you and Buffy."

Stiles rolls his eyes "Her and Buffy were looking for Jackson before the whole Stiles I'm 16 and don't want to die drama." He reminds him wincing at the memory of the look on Buffy's face that night, the way she had looked so crushed and broken as she fell apart. It was still probably the worst night of his life.

Walking through the forest the blonde groans as she spots another incoming call from Melissa, which could only mean Snyder had found out she had skipped and was now torturing her guardian. Great just great, that psycho really wanted her out of his school.

She was going to be so grounded when she got home but right now she didn't care, Deaton had given her a lead and from what his contact had said someone or something had beaten the Annoying-One's minions to the Master's bones, so her priority right now was getting some clues so she could figure out who stole the bones before they barter a deal with his annoying-ness. She really needed to deal with that little mongrel of a vampire.

But first thing first she had to re-find the entrance to The Master's lair, hopefully, whoever had stolen his bones went there first and maybe left her with something she can work with. As she tramples through the forest she sighs as she senses someone following her "You know, being stalked isn't really a big turn-on for girls."
Derek scoffs before moving around her so that he was stood in front of her "I'm following a scent. Another wolf's been in the area."

Buffy frowns in worry before shaking her head right now her focus was getting her intel and searching for Lydia "Not my problem."
As she walks past him he frowns "Shouldn't you be at school." He asks, he had come looking for her when he hadn't seen her, he had been there to check on Jackson...and it seemed like that one wasn't responding well to the bite he had begged for.

"I skip school often remember, Mr. Buffy leave school now." She reminds him as she turns back to face him before she sighs "Deaton found a lead someone who doesn't work for the annoying monster in a tiny body took The Master's bones. Probably wanting a deal, blood I don't know. I'm doing recon. Research, not exactly my forte."

At her revelation, Derek freezes as something occurs to him "I'm coming with you."
"I'm good." The blonde tells him strolling past him and over to a small wooden area looking down she eyes it for a second before bending down and ripping open the metal grate and there it was...the same entrance from the night at the dance.

Derek's eyes widen "Looks like our wolf and your thief are one and the same."

Buffy frowns "You can smell him?" She asks curiously before crossing her arms, it was a little convenient but right now as much as she would rather work alone, the sooner she got The Master's bones back the sooner she would be able to find Lydia.

When Derek nods the blonde groans before gesturing to the hole "Looks like your tagged in. Let's get searching." And with that Buffy jumps down into the whole Derek following closely behind her.

Stiles groans as he continues to stare at the clock begging it to move faster as he sits in the hell that was detention with Mr. Harris. The guy was such a dick.
Staring at the clicking clock his eyes widen as finally it hits 4, leaping from his chair he is halted as Harris speaks up "Sit."
Stiles' eyes fill with panic, annoyance and so many other emotions that all arose when it came to his ass of a chemistry teacher "But, it's been an hour."
"My detention's an hour and a half." Harris says with a shrug not even bothering to look up from the papers he was marking.

Stiles' jaw drops open, he could not be serious, today of all days was not the day to be trapped in this freaking room, he had to get out of here "You can't do that."

Finally the uppity teacher looks up and merely smiles brightly "Oh. But I can. You see, Stiles, since your father was so judicious in his dealings with me, I've decided to make you my personal project for the rest of the semester. And as I don't feel like getting stabbed by your crazy little girlfriend school skipper again, you will receive punishments for all of her misdeeds too. You are going to benefit from all the best the strict discipline has to offer. And since your friend skipped my pop quiz you're going to sit...for another 30 minutes, before I decide to keep you here all night."

Stiles sighs as he snarls at his teacher before flopping back onto his seat, dropping his head against his books he huffs, this semester was going to suck and if Buffy didn't start showing up to school he had a feeling it was just going to get a hell of a lot worse for him.

"Yo." Stiles whispers as he runs over to Scott who was crouched behind a statue as the two of them watch Kate's funeral which right now had press everywhere and security trying to keep it all contained. However Scott wasn't too concerned about the press he was however concerned about the older man who had walked over to the family, and from what he could hear...that was Chris and Kate's father. Which could only mean bad news for all of them.

Scott turns to glance at Stiles with a worried look on his face "Any word from Buffy? She promised Allison she would be here for this, last week."
Stiles sighs "I texted her during class all I got was I'll be there maybe don't count on it busy."

Scott sighs and turns to look over at his girlfriend sadly, he could tell she was upset Buffy wasn't there it was hard enough for her today but now her best friend had just blown her off. "Who the hell is that?" Stiles asks suddenly gesturing to Chris' father just as the man in question turns his head causing both of them to duck out of view "Definitely an Argent."

Peaking back around the two watch their eyes glued to the Argents as Allison's grandfather moves to sit beside her, offering her a supportive smile Scott couldn't help but hate the fact that he couldn't be there for her. This whole being a secret thing really sucked.

"Hey, maybe they're just here for a funeral." Stiles suggests trying to put some light on the situation "I mean, what if they're the non-hunting side of the family? There could be non-hunting Argents. That's possible, right?"
Scott sighs "I know what they are. They're reinforcements."
Before either of them could even contemplate how screwed they were they both suddenly find themselves being grabbed and face to face with the Sheriff. Stiles couldn't help but gulp he was so screwed. Again.

"The two of you. Unbelievable." The Sheriff scoffs before yanking them both to his car shoving them in the backseat and slamming the door before he goes to sit in front.

As his dad talks on the phone, probably to Melissa to tell her all about Scott's and his adventures Stiles turns to Scott "What are we going to do about...cucko Buffy?" He whispers they needed her back to herself especially now with more hunters in town which meant they needed to figure out what was wrong...and well how to fix it.

Scott sighs before remembering back to his conversation with her dad "Buffy's dad noticed it too when she was in LA. She was distant quiet very anti-Buffy. He thinks it has to do with that night. You were in the cave what the hell happened, I mean I know she died..."

Stiles thinks back to that night, it was probably one of the worst night of his life and he tried to avoid thinking about it as much as possible but if it helped Buffy then he would have to suck it up, as he thinks that's when it all clicks "She's not had time to process man. She was dead. She had no pulse and then we threw her back into the fight. And now someone's threatening to bring that creep back...she breaking."
Scott gulps slightly "We gotta deal with this Master bones thing and I don't know, give her a night off or something because I can't deal with mean Buffy. She made Allison cry and that was a good night of mean Buffy. Do you remember last time we saw mean bitchy Buffy."

Stiles thinks back to a few years ago they were 12 or 13 he couldn't remember but he and Scott had begged their parents to go to L.A and visit Buffy for the weekend, honestly, it was the only time they had and she had resorted them both to tears that weekend with her words. It was a dark time. "Please no. I can't man. I can't do mean Buffy again. Her words scare me."

Before either of them could say another thing they are cut off as Stiles' dad's radio goes off "4-1-5 Adam."
The Sheriff grabs his radio in confusion, he really needed to get the department some new radios "I didn't copy that. Did you say 4-1-5 Adam?"
Stiles frowns before leaning over to Scott "Disturbance in a car." He explains.
"They were taking a heart attack Victim. D.O.A but on the way to the hospital, something hit 'em."
The Sherriff couldn't help but frown what the hell did that mean "What hit the ambulance?"
"Copy that. I'm standing in front of it right now. Something got in the back. There's blood everywhere. And I mean everywhere."

Scott and Stiles glance at each other in panic, they needed to get out of here and now.
"All right, unit four, what's your 20?"
"Route 5 and Post. I swear, I've never seen anything like this."

The Sheriff sighs, today was going to be a long day "All right, take it easy. I'm on my way." Putting the radio down he sighs remembering the idiotic kids in the backseat "Now as for you two—" As he turns back in his seat he is cut off as his eyes widen as instead of the two teenagers he now found himself staring at an empty backseat with the doors wide open. They were gone.

"Look up ahead." Buffy tells Derek as she spots an ambulance in the distance, frowning she turns to the werewolf "Was it, Lydia?" She asks praying to God she was wrong, just hoping.
Derek looks careful before closing his eyes after a beat he shakes his head "No, it matches the scent that was in the Master's lair."

Buffy sighs in relief taking a deep breath however suddenly she jumps as she hears a noise from her left, Derek grabs her arm pulling her closer as he looks out into the darkness before both of their heads swing the other way as another loud noise distracted them.

Buffy sighs "If another werewolf is here we need to find Lydia and get her out of here. We have to split up."
Derek clenches his jaw, not like the idea of leaving her alone in the woods but they didn't really have much of a choice right now, groaning he nods "Be careful." He tells her before kissing her softly.
Buffy smiles before pulling back "No promises." She snarks before pulling out her stake from her bag and heading off in one direction, Derek heading off in the other.

Buffy tightens her hand around the stake in her hands as she runs towards the noise she kept hearing, and that's when she spots it a figure running in the distance. Running faster she jumps up onto a nearby tree stump and launches herself through the air tackling the figure to the ground.

As she and the figure struggle her eyes widen as it pins her down, okay this was not another werewolf, this was one of her problems. Aka vampire who was desperate to get a bite out of her neck.

Groaning she headbutts her before throwing her over her and into a nearby tree, coughing slightly she flips herself back to her feet and as she prepares to launch the stake at her she freezes as she spots an envelope on the ground.

Launching the stake so that it pinned the vampire to the tree by her hand she ignores the screaming vampire as she picks up the envelope and sure enough, it was filled with $100 bills, she couldn't help but snort "I take it you're into the bones buying business." Chuckling she reaches into her bag where she had the chains which they had to use on Scott during the last full moon, running over to the vampire she begins chaining her up, moving in front of the smirking vampire she tilts her head "Where is the wolf?"
The vamp merely smiles in amusement "Long gone by now."

Buffy clenches her jaw she was not in the mood for this, grabbing the stake in the vampire's palm she twists it causing her to scream in agony "Tell me where the wolf is!"
The vampire merely laughs at the little girl "What are gonna do? Kill me?" The taunts as she continues to laugh.

Buffy merely smirks at her words and tilts her head "As a matter of fact..." Ripping the stake out of her hand she then stabs it into the vampire's eye making her scream and struggle as she tries to escape "...yes." Buffy finishes before ripping off her cross necklace "But since I'm not going to kill you anytime soon, how are we gonna pass the time till then?" She asks as she shoves the cross in the vampire's mouth and clamps her jaw shut causing the vampire to convulse and cry as her mouth begins burning.

Buffy merely stares for a few minutes before finally she yanks the cross out "So...one more time."
The vampire gulps before pointing in the direction Derek had gone "Further into the woods. Where the moon will shine. That's where the mongrel will be waiting."

Buffy smirks "Brilliant." She says sweetly before reaching into her bag and pulling out an axe and before the vampire could even beg for her life the blonde cuts her head off before watching as her body melts into dust.

"Buffy?"

Buffy's eyes widen at the familiar voice and she spins around only to spot Lydia staring at the now dusty vampire in complete shock with wide terrified eyes, Lydia merely stares her mouth wide open "Was that...a vampire?"
Buffy doesn't answer as she drops the axe to the ground and runs over hugging her best friend tightly ignoring the whole naked and covered in mud and twigs thing.

Lydia holds onto Buffy tightly before sobbing into her arms "I don't know what's happening to me, Buffy."
Buffy pulls back and pushes the hair out of her best friend's face offering her a small smile, no matter what she was going to help Lydia, she had too "We'll figure it out."

Lydia smiles before pausing as she remembers her current state of undress "Do you have clothes."

Buffy's eyes widen and she quickly yanks off her jacket placing it on Lydia's shoulder before sighing, she needed to get Lydia over to the police and the medics who were still at that scene "Hold on tight." She tells her friend who frowns only to scream slightly as Buffy lifts her up as though she was a cat; like her weight was nothing.

Buffy sighs and runs through the forest Lydia holding onto her as she runs as fast as she can to where she had seen the ambulance. As she begins spotting the lights she calls out "Help!" She screams causing Stiles who had been caught again by his dad while Scott had gotten away into the woods, to turn his eyes widening.

Stiles' dad turns his eyes widening as Buffy stumbles onto the road still carrying Lydia in her arms "A little help here!"

The Sherriff runs forward and quickly takes Lydia from Buffy's arms leading both girls over to the medics "How the hell did you carry her?!" The Sheriff asks in shock as he turns back to Buffy who was now stood with Stiles, the blonde shrugs "Barely. I dropped her a lot." She lies before turning to Stiles who was staring at her in shock "Where the hell have you been?!"

Buffy groans, she didn't have time for this "Look a wolf has the bones. I intercepted the pickup guy but I need to find the wolf before he sells the bones to another lackey."

"He's not just gonna hand them over." Stiles points out, making Buffy look up at him with a dark look before she turns her back on him and begins walking towards the forest "I know. If he doesn't...I'll kill him."

Scott's eyes widen as the werewolf he was chasing is suddenly tackled, running forward he panics as he spots a bright light of blonde hair currently wrestling with the wolf "Buffy!" He yells running forward and yanking the wolf off of her. Throwing the Omega to the side he goes to help Buffy but she pulls out a crossbow and fires a shot into the Omega's arm causing him to howl in agony, running over she kicks her booted foot into his face sending him crashing to the ground "Buffy stop!" Scott yells as he tries to pull her back but she pushes him back and glares at him "He's the thief!" She yells at him before turning back to the Omega. Stepping on the arrow in his shoulder she ignores his howls of pain before raising the envelope of money "Where are the bones!"

When he merely growls at her she clenches her jaw before slamming her foot down on his knee and Scott couldn't help but wince at the sound of the wolf's leg shattering in pieces before he howls in agony again.

The wolf howls at Buffy before gesturing to the bag on the floor hidden underneath some trees and dirt, Buffy arches a brow before tossing the money at him and turning her back running to the spot, uncovering the bag her eyes widen as she stares at it, there it was The Master's bones altogether.
Clenching her jaw she forces back her tears as she stares at the bones only to gasp as she sees Scott running to her "Buffy!" He screams the blonde turns and her eyes widen as she spots the wolf running at her, Scott tackles her to the ground protecting her but when they finally stop rolling the two of them look over only to spot the Omega hanging in a hunter's trap.

Buffy's eyes widen "Scott go now!" She yells, just as Derek runs over and grabs him, both of them trying to get Scott to go and hide, hunters were coming and if they saw him he was dead, "I'll deal with getting the wolf down just get him out of here!" Derek groans before looking at Buffy desperately but she shakes her head "Go." She whispers making Derek growl slightly before he drags a yelling Scott away "Buffy!"

Buffy clenches her jaw and looks around the forest trying to find a way to cut down the trap, but she needed her crossbow, so quickly she tries to grab all of her weapons and the bag of bones currently on the floor across from her but before she could grab the crossbow it was too late as Chris and a ton of other hunters appear.

"You're handy work?" Chris asks looking at the arrow currently lodged in the wolf's arm and his broken leg, Buffy nods but couldn't help but look at the rabid wolf with a guilty frown.
Chris watches the wolf for a moment who was growling at Buffy, lifting up his taser he presses it against the wolf and Buffy winces as she is forced to watch as the wolf howls in agony before finally, he returns to his human form.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
The man merely shakes his head before glancing at Buffy "Nothing."

Chris frowns before turning to Buffy with his father by his side, Gerald watches the blonde "This is the Slayer?" Gerald asks his son who nods in confirmation, Gerald smiles at the young girl "You're so little. But impressive."
Chris sighs before turning to Buffy "Why were you fighting him?" Buffy gulps slightly before gesturing to the bag of bones by Chris' feet "The Master."
Chris' eyes widen and he picks up the bag, that explained the terrified look on her face Allison had filled him in on what happened that night to her, sighing he hands her the bag before gesturing for her to go "You don't want to see this."

Buffy gestures before turning to the wolf "I'm sorry." She mouths before she runs, she couldn't help him there were too many hunters, as she runs she is suddenly grabbed and finds herself staring at Scott with Derek's arm around her holding her.

Buffy sighs in relief before watching as the now human explained "I needed the money...I didn't know what it was but I'm here...I came looking for the Alpha. I heard he was here. That's all. Look, I didn't do anything. I didn't hurt anyone. No one living. He wasn't alive in the ambulance."
"Whose the creepy old guy?" Buffy asks the boys as the three watch, Scott sighs and turns to look at the blonde "That's Allison's grandfather. They're reinforcements."

Buffy's eyes widen in horror, this was bad news, glancing at Derek he shakes his head knowing exactly how she was feeling right now, that they were totally screwed. Leaning forward the blonde keeps her hand in Derek's as she watches Gerald step forward "You wanna tell them what we've caught?"
"An Omega." Chris tells the hunters making Gerald smile in amusement "The Lone Wolf! Possibly kicked out of his own pack or the survivor of a pack that was hunted down. Maybe even murdered. And possibly alone by his own choice. Certainly not a wise choice."

As Scott tries to move forward Derek pulls them both back, they couldn't help him now, not without all of them ending up dead. Buffy's eyes widen as she spots Gerald pulls out a sword "Oh my god." She breaths.
"Because..." Gerald speaks as he approaches the beast "As I am about to demonstrate, an Omega rarely survives...on his own."

Buffy gasps and is forced to turn away as Gerald as he swings the sword cutting the wolf straight in half, the blonde groans however Derek grabs her forcing her and Scott to look at the now-dead wolf "Look. Look at them!" He tells them both "You see what they do? Buffy, you chose us, you think they won't do this to you the moment you are no longer of use to them?! This is why you both need me." He tells both teenagers who were stood terrified and horrified at the situation "Why we need each other. The only way to fight them is together."

"What are they doing?" Scott asks in shock, he thought they had a code, that they don't kill a wolf who hasn't killed.
Derek clenches his jaw as he watches them "Declaring War." Sighing Derek grabs them both yanking them away, they had to get out of here and quick, as of right now Hunter's were killing on sight no matter what, they couldn't risk being caught here.

As they run through the forest the three finally end up by the old Hale house where Stiles was now waiting for them in his jeep. As he climbs out Scott runs over but Buffy freezes as she spots a sort of sledgehammer next to a shovel on the floor.

"Buffy?" Scott questions as he Stiles and Derek all turn only to frown as Buffy empties the bag of bones onto the floor and picks up the sledgehammer staring down at them completely frozen with wide eyes.
"What's going on?" Stiles asks but Scott merely shakes his head and raises his hand making it clear to be quiet, she needed this, after everything that had happened to her not just tonight but everything...she needed this. To feel in control.

And with that the blonde screams as she slams down the sledgehammer onto the bones, again and again, and again, tears streaming down her face as she shatters them into dust and unusable pieces. Crying loudly as she continues to smash them she glares at the bones of the man that her damaged her, had killed her, taunted her, haunted her dreams.

Swinging the sledgehammer again shattering the last of the big pieces Scott groans and turns to Derek hating this so much right now "Go."

Without hesitation Derek moves towards the blonde who drops the sledgehammer to the ground and brings her hand to her mouth as she begins sobbing.
Placing a hand on her shoulder he steps closer "It's okay." He whispers before allowing her to turn into his chest as she sobs, but at least now...it was over. This chapter anyway, they still had so much trouble coming this way but at least she could be sure The Master was gone for good now.

Buffy groans as she hears Melissa yell her name "Buffy Stiles is here! You're grounded remember one hour then I want him gone."
"Okay!" She yells through her room before turning back to where Derek was currently leaning in through her window smirking at her "Aren't we breaking the roles?"

"I'm technically still in my room." She points out smiling softly at him before kissing him, his hands around her as she cupped his face in her hands, she had to admit she could get very used to this scruffy beard he had going on. It was rugged and so hot.

"Buffy!" Stiles yells through her door "Come on!"

The blonde groans before giggling and kissing Derek once more, who suddenly goes very quiet "You okay?" She questions.
Derek pauses before turning to her "Yeah...I just have to go meet a new friend."
"You have a friend?" She teases smirking, making Derek shake his head in amusement before he kisses her forehead "Are you gonna be okay?" He asks slightly worried, he knew how hard tonight had been for her but he had to go, Issac would be waiting for him, and in order to prepare for what was coming, he needed to start building his pack.

Buffy smiles "Yeah. Now go. Before I make you stay." With that Derek leaps off the house and down to the ground before disappearing into the darkness. Buffy sighs before closing the window and opening her door where Stiles was standing impatiently "Melissa is kicking me out in an hour. So hurry up so we can finish this movie."

"I'm coming." She moans pushing him ahead of her as the two head downstairs, as they go Stiles turns to her "So how grounded are you?"
Buffy winces slightly "A month at least. Apparently Synder extra insulted her so I get extra punished. She took my new shoes, Stiles." She pouts, just the thought of all those brand new shoes being trapped in Melissa's cupboard made her want to cry, the poor shoes "It bad. Poor shoes."

Stiles snorts before throwing an arm over her shoulder "It could be worse. You could be dead again."

The blonde rolls her eyes "Shut up."
