Scott McCall | 17 | werewolf
Hey I'm Scott, I'm the co-captain of the lacrosse team at Mystic Falls. I'm the happy-good to guy. I'm not your average teenager, but then again, who isn't in this town.
S U M M A R Y:Ā Ten years later, the events of Mystic Falls still seem to correlate in Scott's life. Ā His life, that now he has to live alone in. Ā Knowing that he had no say for his future, when it was already predetermined for him.
F I N A L W R I T I N G Ā P R O M P T:Ā 10 Years Later
N O T E S:Ā It has been such a privilege to take on Scott. Ā And I can't believe I'm saying goodbye to him. Ā This was the hardest thing I have ever written. Ā It's long, and really shitty writing, whoops. Ā And yea. Ā Well there's one done. Ā And I'm in tears, so hope you guys are too, well at least Sho and Charley, lol.

He looked up, drops of water hitting his face, it was such a strange feeling, the water droplets falling on him and how he could feel each and every drop, counting them with ease. Ā It wasn't like he had never been in the rain before, it was just different experiencing it now. Ā Scott glanced over to the road, remembering how almost 11 years ago, he was in that very spot when he realized he had received the bite, the thing he once saw as a curse, and slowly realized that perhaps it was a gift. Ā It had taken him years for him to think that after he was bitten by the Alpha, the things that came with it weren't so bad after all. Ā But of course, even he had no idea for the many events that came along afterwards.
Nate was someone that Scott always went to for everything it seemed. Ā For advice, for help, anything. Ā Ever since he told him about his secret, being a werewolf and everything, as shocked as the boy was, he came around to the idea. Ā Embracing Scott and accepting him with fur and all. Ā They had done so much in one year that had made their friendship stronger, their relationship as brothers stronger. Ā Even after high school, they always kept in touch, even after the changes that Nate gone through.
Getting the Archibald's wasn't the only family that Scott gained, for he was in the pack that Derek had once tried to convince the young werewolf to join. Ā It took Scott a bit to get there, and it even took Derek a bit to trust and confide in the boy, but eventually it came down to sticking together. Ā With Klaus still around, a lone wolf was not safe to roam Mystic, especially when they could easily be taken and turned into a hybrid.
Things didn't change much for Scott in the relationship area. Ā Although he was no longer dating Allison, he finally realized that Grace was the one he wanted to be with. Ā And finally after years of hiding their love for each other, and a whole year of just pure complications, they finally gave themselves a chance, developing a relationship that they had wished didn't take that long to form. Ā Dating throughout senior year, both ready to go off to college after wards, it was like things couldn't possibly get better for them. Ā But it changed, when Scott was off to go to college. Ā He could remember that day like it were yesterday, their last conversation.
"So, this is where everything actually begins," Scott smiled, his arms wrapped around Grace. Ā "You'd think they'd let me take you with me, how will you survive?" The boy smirked, chuckling afterwards.
"Oh shut it, McCall, it's not like you'll be far. Ā Besides, I'll come visit you some weekends, you on the others, and we have text, skype calls, it'll be like I'm there," Grace's brilliant smile glided across her face.
"But it won't be the same," Scott whined.
"Yea, but it's only one year, not even, and then I'll join you. Ā Besides, we have breaks, Christmas break, than Spring break, then Summer... then I'll have a car, packed with all my things, and we'll be in school together."
"One year is so long, come on, Gracie. Ā Just... leave school, we both will, and we can run away together, just like we planned last summer."
"As appealing as that may sound, I need to finish school, Kylie would never let it down if she finds out I became a dropout."
"Urghs..."
"Scotty!"
"Gracie..."
"You're ridiculous, you know that?" Grace bit her lip, her smile playful as ever.
"Yea, and you love me for it," Scott went in to kiss her, softly on the lips. Ā He brushed his lips against her, the craving never satisfied, for all he wanted was more. Ā He loved Grace, and he wanted nothing more than to be with her forever, and everytime he kissed the girl, he knew that one day she would be the one he'd spent the rest of his life with.
"I do, I love you, and you never cease to make me forget," Grace pulled away shortly to speak, only to get back into their passionate kiss.
"I love you, Gracie," Scott muttered under his breath, taking in a bit of oxygen.
"I love you too, Scott."
And after their kiss finally broke, Scott backed up from leaning against his car, took out his car keys and walked over to the driver's side. Ā "Hey, are you sure you don't want to hop in? Ā I can take you home after I'm all settled." Ā Scott looked over the car, hoping that Grace would say yes.
"I can't, I have to do some last minute things and get registered for a few things at school, but promise you that I'll catch up, and you can show me around campus and we'll have the weekend to ourselves up there."
"Alright, fine, but call me when you're almost there."
"Yes, Scotty, I'll call you, now get going before you hit traffic."
So he left, and Scott never received that call from Grace. Ā He had called everyone, tried to find out what had happened. Ā She had gone missing, and Scott couldn't even think about school at the time. Ā And then Kylie had called him, telling him that they had found her car, completely destroyed. Ā That Grace had died instantly. Ā He knew something was wrong the moment he step foot on campus, and he realized then that it was because he had lost her, the love of his life. Ā How could he move on after that, there was no way he could move on. Ā He lost his best friend, and even at her funeral, he couldn't even stand being there.
It took a whole year for Scott to finally get back on his feet. Ā He wasn't the same, torn from the loss love, his longest friendship, now gone. Ā Grace gone, Nate far away, Autumn never to be heard of again, and losing contact with Roxy after high school, the only person he had left was Stiles. Ā He was thankful that he had him. Ā They had fixed their bond throughout their college years, and he was always there for the boy. Ā It's like Stiles always told him, "you still got me." Ā And he did, for the next ten years, Stiles was there. Ā Even after all the shit that happened with Scott, Stiles never failed him.
School was no different for him. Ā Although he still dealt with the full moons, he had found out that he wasn't the only one that was in the same predicament. Ā With a new place, new people came along in his life, but even some of the old had joined. Ā That's where Allison came into the picture again. Ā After their breakup their junior year, they had decided that what they needed to do was maintain a good friendship. Ā But with both of them having things happen to their lives, and never really speaking to each other for three years, meeting again in college had brought back some good memories for the two.
It took them a few months for things to finally rekindle. Ā Allison and Scott dated for their last two years at their university, and even after they graduated, they continued to date for another year until Scott finally proposed to her. Ā The following year they had married, had a child, and everything seem perfect for the new McCall family. Ā But even for the newly 25 year old, things weren't going to go his way. Ā Not with the supernatural looming in.
It was only a few weeks before his 26th birthday. Ā His daughter, already one, and Scott had found a place working as a veterinarian. Ā It took him years to get there, but after much more studying, he finally got the chance to care for animals. Ā It was always something he wanted to do, ever since he worked for Dr. Deaton. Ā The routine was becoming the same, but this time, things were different. Ā Someone from his past had come back, someone he thought he'd never see again. Ā But of course, no one could truly run away from him, never, this was Klaus after all.
"Hello mate," Klaus devilish smile was clear on his face.
Scott watched him, shock slowly overcoming him. Ā How did he find him? Ā He had made sure that he would keep his supernatural identity under wraps, but here he was, the monster that was after him. Ā The monster that wanted to use him to make him one of his slaves.
"What are you doing here?" Scott glared at him. Ā Although he was now physically a year older than Klaus, the boy still had his boyish look. Ā Just a little older, a sense of maturity could bee seen on Scott.
"Is that anyway to greet an old friend?" Klaus smirked.
"You're no friend, Klaus, you never were."
"That's not what you're going to say when I'm the one who saves your family."
Scott's eyes widened. Ā What was he on about? Ā His family. Ā Allison and her daughter Cassie. Ā No! Ā He couldn't have them. Ā But when Klaus motioned one of the people that were inside with them, Scott couldn't help but panic. Ā He heard the faint cry of a baby. Ā He knew the cry too well. Ā The call of a young daughter, scared. Ā And then he turned to the door and saw three hybrids come in. Ā Two locking Allison in place, the other holding his baby girl. Ā "No, let them go, they haven't done anything!" Ā Scott cried out, turning to Klaus, fear evident in the werewolf's eyes.
"Oh, but on the contrary, they do, mate," Ā Klaus spoke. Ā "You see, I'm in a bit of a predicament. Ā As you can see, I'm a bit low on the hybrids. Ā And you have always peaked my interest. Ā A young werewolf who would do anything for his friends, his family. Ā And that's exactly what I need. Ā Someone like you, who can help me out, gain the trust of other werewolves, getting them to join our pack!"
"You mean, your pack. Ā No! Ā I will never help you. Ā And I will never join you... I know what happens. Ā I've seen it happen to Roxy, and that's not a life I'm willing to live," Scott's eyes were locked on the hybrid's.
"Well that's too bad, Scott! Ā Because, I know for a fact that your daughter has the werewolf gene. Ā And I'm pretty sure that when the time comes, she'll break, and another will be loose in the world, but of course, you'll never be there, because we'll be taking her instead, and for your wife..." Klaus smiled, creasing on both ends of his face. Ā "Well let's just say, another love of Ā yours that you'll see buried." Ā Klaus nodded to the hybrid holding the child. Ā "Take her, make sure she's properly taken care of!"
"NO!" Scott tried to run towards her, but the original hybrid was too quick on his feet.
"It's either you or daughter, come on mate. Ā You get to see her grow up, you don't have to worry about turning every full moon either. Ā And when it comes to it, we can turn your beautiful wife, and your precious daughter can join, and you will all live such a long and lasting life."
"A life... you call being a slave to you, drinking blood, murdering innocent people a life. That's not a life...." Scott was angry.
"Then I guess, that's no?" Klaus looked at him, cocking his head. Ā "Take the baby and kill the mother." Ā Klaus kept his eyes on Scott, a smile on his face.
"NO! NO! Ā Stop... stop," Scott looked at Allison, one of the hybrids holding her while the other one was ready to strike her down to kill her. Ā "Please... please, I'll do anything, just... just don't hurt them."
"Ahh, much better." Ā Klaus evil smile was plastered on his face again. Ā He bit his wrist, two small openings with blood beginning to slowly flow out. Ā He held it up to Scott. Ā "Drink up!"
Scott looked at the blood, then slowly his eyes shifted from Klaus, to Allison, and then to his daughter. Ā The werewolf had no choice. Ā He made his promise that he would never let this happen to Cassie. Ā Never wanted her to be harmed. Ā He looked up at Klaus again, anger was prominent in Scott's eyes. Ā He took the man's hand, and drank the blood. Ā He tried to choke it down, the taste not one that was enjoyable. Ā He watched the hybrid, a smile still on the man's face. Ā "That's it, just a little more," Klaus commented. Ā And when he had enough, Klaus removed his hand from Scott and smirked. Ā "And now, the hard part!" Ā The boy didn't see it coming, but right when he heard the snap, everything went dark.
Scott walked around in his bedroom. Ā The memories, how they overflowed in his mind. Ā How well he could remember every detail that was once personalized. Ā Every time spend in here, doing homework, hangout with Stiles, being here with Grace, hang outs with Autumn. Ā How his mother would come in and annoy him, telling him that he had to clean up his room. Ā All the moments he had with them, but no longer could. Ā He was a monster now. Ā Ten years later, and everything has changed.
He looked outside, the full moon out in the clear sky. Ā He felt nothing. Ā As usual, he never did. Ā That was one thing he truly was grateful to Klaus. Ā He took that pain, that curse from him, but with one curse gone another one took it's place. Ā The hybrid could hear the heartbeat of a young woman, on a midnight run. Ā The hunger was strong, especially because he fed when he needed to. Ā But most times he fed on blood bags and animals. Ā The boy had quickly went downstairs, not even a second passing. Ā He opened the refrigerator and took one of the bags filled with blood, and began drinking from it.
He hated this part of him. Ā Knowing that blood was his sustenance, but he had no choice. Ā He had only been a hybrid for about a year now, and he was still young, and not in control of things. Ā Like his human life, and werewolf life before him, the part of dealing with things by himself had been ten times more emphasized. Ā His emotions were at an all time high, and he hated to feel such emotions like guilt for abandoning his family, depression for being away and being alone, and anger for being turned into something like this.
"Scott, Scott..." the young woman looked at him. Ā The newly made hybrid just stared at her. Ā He didn't want to feel this pain, but he wasn't going to show it to her. Ā She needed to stay, she needed to protect their daughter. Ā "Scott!" Allison finally yelled.
Scott snapped from the thought he had. Ā He couldn't be here. Ā The hunger was still strong in him, and it took so much power for him to resist breaking open Allison and devouring her. Ā Her heartbeat flowing so much blood, so much of that red goodness. Ā He wanted more, he wanted to drink her blood, just one... one drop.
"Argh," Scott groaned. Ā He had to leave. Ā He couldn't hurt Allison, not again. Ā He had did that once when he was a werewolf, she didn't need one now when he was a vampire. Ā "I have to go!"
"Scott, please! Ā I can't do this without you, I can't just..." Ā Allison was in tears now.
"You have to, because I can't be around her, I can't see our daughter and be fighting the urge to..." Scott gulped the lump that formed in his throat.
"I love you, Scott, but I can't do this alone. Ā I can help you, we'll find a way to fix this."
"Dammit Allison, don't you get it! Ā I can't fixed... You could never fix me when I was a werewolf and I can't be fixed now. Ā I'm a fucking hybrid, Allison, a monster, a real monster that could easily kill you within a blink of an eye. Ā I... want... so.... much... to... drink... your... blood!" Scott's teeth were clenched, grinding against each other. Ā His eyes were changing, and he could sense that. Ā He was hungry, and he needed more blood. Ā "I need to leave!"
"Scott...." Ā Allison cried out.
"Don't bother finding me," Scott looked at her. Ā He had to convince her. Ā The only way she could let him go was if he showed that he didn't care. Ā And it hurt knowing that he would hurt Allison even more, but this was all for her, for Cassandra. Ā He loved them both and had to protect them. Ā "You will live a happy life without me, and Cassie will know that she is loved by you, and please... please tell her, I loved her. Ā Tell her the truth when she's ready or don't tell her at all. Ā I just... I can't be here knowing that I can hurt you both. Ā And I don't want to be here...."
Scott turned around, heading towards the door now. Ā He had a duffle bag of his belongings. Ā He had no choice in the matter. Ā Klaus was the boss, and his sire bond was strong. Ā But this was the only way to protect his family, saying their goodbyes and not see them again. Ā "I want you to leave this town, find somewhere else, a nice place, a place that I can never find you, that Klaus can never find you." Ā He watched Allison, the girl trying so hard not to break down. Ā "Dammit," Scott walked up to her, holding the girl. Ā "I'm sorry you, I failed you again.... I always seem to do that to you." Ā Scott kissed the girl on the forehead. Ā "Goodbye Allison, I love you..." Ā Scott rushed out. Ā Without looking back.
Scott took a deep breath. Ā Remembering was hard. Ā Letting go was even harder. Ā But the hardest thing of all was knowing that he would lose them all. Ā He had lost Grace, so young, and depression hit him whenever he thought of her. Ā It was hard letting go of Allison and Cassandra, the two people he thought he'd be with until he died. Ā Now it was all different, it all changed. Ā By outliving his friends, his family, his wife and kid, Scott had no one left. Ā He would outlive them, and he would be stuck with Klaus. Ā He didn't even bother breaking the sire bond for there was no point. Ā He had no one now. Ā He wasn't going to ruin his family. Ā No. Ā He had to protect them, from the supernatural, from Klaus. Ā And the only way he could do that, was to just follow him. Ā And that's what he did. Ā He followed Klaus. Ā But he knew that things would not always be like this. Ā He knew. Ā And that gave him hope. Ā
Grace stood in front of her mirror for a couple of seconds, making sure that her hair looked great. She had a that thing when she simply always had to have her hair look good, and be the way she liked it. She really tried not think about all those nerves inside her, she knew that Scott was going to make their first date unforgettable and she was more than sure that it was going to be great. He was her best friend and he just knew what she liked, so she didnāt worry about that. No, she was worried about her maybe acting a bit weird, and.. And blushing all the time. She knew that it was silly, but she couldnāt help it. Grace giggled when he pulled her closer. āI know,ā she whispered, caressing his cheek. She had never been really good at restraining herself from kissing, and well, she just couldnāt say no when he was holding her tightly. She moaned quietly, feeling that her cheeks were turning red and how warm she was getting.
Scott could hear Grace's heartbeat speed up. Ā This girl was definitely as nervous as he was. Ā But it was a good nervous. Ā They were finally giving themselves a chance. Ā A chance to be in love, to fall in love, to be together. Ā It was meant to be, the best friends since their rugrat years. Ā Always being there for one another. Ā When Scott's father left, Grace was there for him. Ā When Grace's brother passed, Scott was there for her. Ā And those weren't the only times either. Ā He knew that Grace had changed him, for the better. Ā "Good, because I think I'm ready to get there," Scott kissed her lightly one last time before motioning them to get up and leave. Ā "Are you ready to go?" Scott looked at Grace, excited to finally get their date on a roll. Ā It was going to be an unforgettable night, and he knew that what he had in store, Grace would enjoy it.
She bit her lip, trying not to laugh. It was hard to even pretend to be angry at him, especially when he was looking at her like that. Her fingers buried themselves in his hair, luring him to get closer to her. Of course she didnāt want him to fall off the tree, but it seemed like he was doing good, so she didnāt worry that much about it. She rest her forehead on his for a moment, and smiled slightly, licking and then biting her lower lip. She wanted to giggle at some point, but she didnāt let herself do that. āDefinitely better,ā she agreed with a big smile. And that was another point for Scott McCall. āWell you didnāt tell me the exact location, and you saw me with everything, so you know.. I had to come up with something a bit differentā¦ā she said honestly.Ā
The boy slightly laughed when Grace said she didn't know what to wear. Ā Of course the date was completely a surprise and he was ready to show her. Ā Tonight he wanted it to be perfect. Ā He wanted Grace to see that he could not only be her best friend, but a boyfriend. Ā The boy wanted to do all that stuff. Ā The extra sappy and romantic dates, along side their crazy hang out and vulnerable stuff too. Ā He watched her, his eyes careful not to leave her sight. Ā "Well you know it's going to be outside, and well, late March, finally the weather is getting a bit warm, and you are looking beautiful anyway," Scott grabbed the girls arm and pulled her in, making her sit in his lap as he slowly leaned in to kiss the girl again. Ā "You're going to like our date, by the way," Scott teased, taking in a bit of air before going in for another kiss.
Grace shook her head and was just about to close the window, telling herself that it was all just something, not real thing, when she suddenly felt someoneās lips on her own. She squeaked loudly, not knowing what was going on, her eyes and mouth wide open. āScott!ā she hissed, trying to calm herself down. He scared the shit out of her even though it was probably the cutest thing ever. āYou freaked me out!ā she pouted, rolling her eyes. She couldnāt act angry for long though, and she quickly smiled and gave him another kiss. āWhy wonāt you come inside and check the time on the clock on your own?ā she teased. She moved away from the window and started picking up her clothes and throwing them all to her wardrobe. She was going to take care of them later on, right now she was definitely not going to think about them when she was going on the date.
The boy chuckled at the girl's reaction. Ā "Sorry," the boy gave her an innocent look. Ā His puppy-dog eyes evident. Ā He chuckled again, after the girl came in for a kiss herself. Ā He lingered there for a little bit, getting use to her lips. Ā This was probably the third time since their lips were magnetic towards each other, and the boy never wanted them to be apart. Ā He grinned when she said to come inside. Ā "Why thank you," Scott climbed inside the window and looked over at the clock. Ā "So, I'm a few minutes early, better than being late," Scott glanced over to see Grace putting away her clothes. Ā "Busy day?" the boy teased as he sat on the bed, eyes locked on her.
Grace was a bit nervous about that evening. Well no, actually she was freaking out, running from one place to another, trying to find the things she needed. She threw out her entire collection of clothes and tried to pick something. It was not an easy task, she wanted to look fabulous, and since Scott had already seen her in everything, she had to come up with some new idea. She bit her lip, sitting on her bed and just covering her face. Why was she so nervous? She chuckled to herself, of course she knew why. It took her a long while to finally pick something and actually look good in it. She was smiling when she was putting some make up on, not much, just some mascara, some blush, some lipstick. She was almost ready when she heard a noise. It was just like someone knocked on the window, but it was rather impossible, right? She raised her eyebrows, coming closer and opening it. She shook her head, seeing nothing. It was probably just her mind playing her, yes, that was probably that.
Scott tried to keep as quiet as possible. Ā He could hear Grace, footsteps creeping closer to the window, to find out the source of the knock. Ā He waited until she finally came by, opening the window and looking to see what it was. Ā The boy then out of nowhere swiftly moved in, his lips reaching his. He hoped he didn't scare the girl, but wouldn't be surprised if he did that. Ā He pulled away, a smile on his face. Ā Scott took a good look at the girl standing in the other side of the window. Ā She was beautiful. Ā It was like seeing her again for the first time, a new person, a beautiful, gorgeous person. Ā "Hey, beautiful," Scott gave the girl a grin. Ā Whatever the reaction she made, it made him chuckle. Ā "Am I a little early, or late? Ā I can see that you definitely been trying to find an outfit," Scott chuckled as his eyes glanced over to see the bed, full of clothes that were piled up.
Scott had everything prepared for the night. Ā He wanted nothing more for it to be special. Ā He had finished the last preparations for the night. Ā It was going to be a perfect date. Ā Mostly for the reason that Grace was the one he'd be taking. Ā His best friend, his girlfriend now. Ā That was weird to say, his girlfriend. Ā And he didn't have to hide himself from her, she knew his secret, and they didn't need to hide anything. Ā He made his way towards Grace's home, and decided he would do things the old fashion way. Ā Scott looked over at the tree that was next to her room window, grabbing on the bark with his elongated nails, and slowly making his way up. Ā When he was outside the window, he knocked on the window lightly, but hid so that Grace would have to come towards it, and hopefully she'd open the window and look outside.
Nate took another sip of the bottle. āWowā¦so youāre like a wolf? Like a slave to the full moon?ā he asked. āItās a little hard to wrap my brain around it, but I guessā¦I guess I always knew or at least a part of me did. Is that odd?ā Nate stopped for a second. āThat crazy right? Youāre the werewolf and Iām asking if Iām the odd one. Wait, does your mother know?āĀ
Nate was dumbfounded. Ā āDo you know what happened to her? Did someone stake her orā¦?ā Nate could feel himself starting to cry, yet he choked back the tears. āWow, Iām sorry. Itās just a lot to take in. I just found out my dead best friend was a vampire and my brother is a werewolf.ā He paused for a second. āWhat do you mean by our friends are in this too? Who else?ā
Scott sat there, looking at Nate, wondering what must be going in his head. Ā "Yes, I'm a werewolf," Scott replied. Ā The boy was somewhat confused when Nate said he kinda always knew. Ā Then again, he always acted strange, full moons weren't always his greatest nights, and it was all so foreign to have people knowing this about him. Ā At least the people he loves. Ā "How? Ā I mean, what gave it away that I was... different?" Scott asked. Ā "And no, it's fine Ā She doesn't know, and I want to keep it that way."
The young werewolf couldn't deal with keeping all these secrets. Ā Some people just had the right to know, and Nate was trustworthy of it all. Ā "I'm not sure exactly," Scott admitted. Ā "I guess, I would talk to her brother, but yea, I'm not really sure so much about that whole situation." Ā Scott wrapped his arm around Nate's shoulder. Ā "I know, I'm sorry, I wanted to tell you, but... I didn't know how you would handle it, and well now that we are brothers, I... I had to tell you." Ā Scott looked at Nate, biting his lip nervously, wondering if he should tell him who else was in on this. Ā "Stiles and Grace know about it all, they are both humans though. Ā Erm... Allison is a hunter, and that's why we really couldn't work out. Ā And... umm... Tyler and Caroline, they are... they are supernatural too."
