Chapter 15 : Going berserk

I woke with my hands tied behind my back, and blood in my mouth. The first thing I felt was a shape object poking my side. When my vision started to come I noticed the pointed end of a berserker bone, scrapping over the cut on my side left by Argent.

I struggled to lift my head, just barely making out Scott tied to a table. I couldn't even tell where we were, but my body wanted to freeze at the sound of footsteps.

"Tell me, Scott." At the sound of Kate Argent's voice I started to fight the thing tying my hands back, but it was metal of some sort. I was too far from Scott to really see anything other than shapes, but I knew nothing good was about to happen. "They ever teach you the myth of Artemis and Actaeon in school?" There was no answer. "No? I didn't think so."

I tried to fight, but my side was still bloody and the cut Kate gave me was deep. Not only that but it was covered in ash and a bone was sticking into it. Every once and a while I let out a pained moaned, my body not wanting to move.

Kate made a noise like a hiss before continuing one. "Well, Artemis was a goddess. And Actaeon was a hunter that happened to see Artemis bathing naked one day." What was it with psychos and antical cultures? I mean first Peter's weird knowledge of lacrosse and now this. The Argent's are FRENCH, not greek. "This did not make the goddess too happy. In fact, she was so angry, Artemis turned Actaeon into a deer."

"The silver deer." I heard myself whisper, like I was having on out of mind experience.

"And this sent his own hounds into a frenzy. He was actually torn apart by his own hunting dogs."

When I heard the growls of the berserker's I knew what the Argent was planning. "No. Kate! You can't do this!" I started to scream the metal on my wrist starting to burn. "KATE! Don't do this!"

"Shut her up!" Kate Argent screamed at the berserkers. I felt the bone dig further into my cut and watch Scott struggle with his holds. I could see the bone skule from here as the pain in my side grew. I knew this woman was crazy but this.. This was berserk.

She stood over Scott, placing the skule on his squirming body. I turned away not wanting to both hear and see Scott as he screamed. When his words stopped, I stopped fighting. I could do this alone. And if Kate kept me this close to her, she wanted something. Badly.

Kate used to claw to cut a thin line right under my eye, just above the bone. The second most painful place in the body. At least from a torcher stand point. I couldn't talk. I could hardly breath. So even if I wanted to say anything to the wack job, I couldn't. Something in me was saying if I spoke they would be my last words.

"See I would have made Scott kill you. Really." Kate sighed, "To be honest that was the first plan. But then I heard. Little Caitlin, the girl who never knew what to do, could see the future. Not only that, but she outsmarted a pack of Alphas. Stopped a nogitsune. And now, ended this awful deadpool. I just want to know how." she gave me fake sad eyes, "Then well then I'll use you as a weapon. Just. Like. Scott."

I raised my head, fully aware she could hear my heartbeat. "For the last time. I. Don't. Know."

"And yet you still did it? How?"

I huffed out, the pain flooding my body, "I just wanted to help. You should try it sometime. Maybe then Allison wouldn't hate you." She went to attack me at the last remark but held herself back. Clearly I got under skin.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

I let out a painful laugh, "Oh she hates you. Allison. The one person you would never be able to kill hates you."

Her eyes flashed green, "Why would say that?"

"Well for one thing, you broke the code. Then tried to kill her boyfriend, then faked your death. But really she could look past all that. The thing that really cut deep. You. Never. Looked. Back." I started to taunt with what I could imagine. Kate let out a roar so I continued. "And when you did. It wasn't for her. Or her father, your brother. No. It was for me, and Scott. That, that was really what made her give up on you."

She clawed at me but I dogged, causing her to break the half melted iron chains that held me to the wall. Despite the pain in my side, I started to run, started to break free. Kate screamed at her beakers and I knew this might be my last stand.

The first thing I saw when one threw me into the wall was Scott's tattoo. The only thing you could see through the bones. I pressed my body to the wall, finding something inside me that would turn him back. I had my hand pressed to my wound but I removed it when blood started to drip, except when I pulled away the blood was shining and silver. It wasn't just a reopening wound, it was turning my eyes.

I stared right at Scott as my forams turned the same shining metal color. The small stone walls around us started to shake. I placed my hand back to my side. "I'll be back for you." I whispered to Scot before using the air around me to push him to a wall.

The stone started to fall and as I ran for just a second I looked back. In that second I watched Scott's eyes burn a deep red, then they went back to having no color at all.

Third Person POV

The pack stood in the old Argent Wearhouse. Not an Argent in sight. Derek stopped the black van they would be using to keep Liam locked up with the moon. Everyone else climbed out of the powder blue jeep. "How'd you manage a prison transport van?" Lottie asked as Braeden and Derek walked out of it.

Braeden scoffed, "I'm a U.S marshall."

Stiles squinted, "Yeah, I just thought that was just a cover."

"We really bring him?" Derek referred to the young beta.

"We really bring him?" Stiles shot back pointing to Peter Hale.

Peter sighed, "We're bringing everyone that we can. And considering Caitlin and Scott were taken the night before the full moon, we should probably get going."

"What's that mean?" Malia asked her father.

"If Kate took Scott Back to the same temple that she took Derek, how do we know she's not planning to do the same thing to him?"

"What does she want to make him younger?" Isaac asked not really following what was happening in the conversation. He kept checking his phone. Nothing from either Lydia or the twins.

"Or back to when he wasn't a werewolf." Derek pointed out.

Peter nodded, "A werewolf can't steal a true Alpha's power. But maybe a Nagual jaguar,-"

"That's actually not true." Lottie interrupted the former Alpha. "What? Oh right, you want me to explain. Liam can take Scott's power. Only the bitten beta of a true alpha can steal his power. From there someone can take it from Liam with nomale Alpha rules applying."
