#c;clair

Niklas chained Clair down to the chair, not caring if it was sloppy. He was hurt and wanted for the first time to have this dog dead once and for all. Already geing her a slight beating, just wanting to show her who was boss and trying the best he could to tend to his wounds, he glairs at her. "Ready to die Clair?"

Clair was moved from the trunk of the car to a warehouse, the man beating her as soon as they entered. It wasn't much compared to the past, and by the time he chained her to the chair, she was too numb to care. She just stared at him, licking her bloody lip and closing her eyes. She would accept death with her head held high, just like her mother did.

Derek waited for Allison and Riley, leading them to the warehouse Niklas was keeping Clair. He sent Riley to find a way to the platform along the top of the building, Allison entering from the side as he took the main door. He would distract Niklas, leaving him open for attacks from both of the hunters. When he heard Niklas voice, Derek busted the door down, fangs and claws extended as he charged at the man.

Allison followed close behind Derek, nodding and taking her position as she was told, pulling her daggers out ready. She glanced up, but she couldn't see if Riley was ready, and just hoped she was. As soon as she heard Derek and the commotion he caused, she pushed open a loose side panel, running as fast as she could at him, daggers aiming at his legs to at least prevent him from running away

Riley easily made her way on top of the building and entered positioning herself in a corner where she could see what was happening. She didn't move when Derek entered , waiting for Allison to do so before taking her bow and aiming at Niklas torso , ready to shoot.

Isaac had just been hanging out with Keir until his ears picked up on a conversation between Derek and what he thought was Kayla. Waiting until Derek had left, Isaac looked over at Keir and nudged him then nodded at the door. Careful not to speak in case Derek was still close enough to hear. He got off the couch and slipped on his running shoes before walking out the door to wait for Keir before tracking Derek's scent. Following it to a warehouse, Isaac held up a hand to signal Keir to wait before they did anything.

Keir followed Isaac once he had overheard Derek's conversation. It seemed important enough, and so they had followed him out. He tried his best to be quiet, trailing behind Isaac. Keir's eyes widened when he saw the warehouse and tried to hold back a growl, remembering what had happened to Amy. Silently, he nodded back at Isaac, waiting for the right time to move.

Niklas let out a growl seeing the Hale alpha enter the werehouse. This is not what he had planned. It only took him a second to have his bow ready and aimed at him untill he heard the pathetic huntress heading for him. An ambush. Fine, they can die aith Clair. He sent the fracture tip arrow soring to Derek as he turned and hit Allison across her hands with his bow. Hoping she would drop her daggers.

Clair winced at the loud noise, opening her eyes when the scent of an Alpha entered her nose. She looked up to see Derek, another person appearing seconds later. She screamed when Niklas let lose of his arrow, fighting to get her chains off when he swung at the girl.

Derek heard the arrow leave the bow and grabbed it before it could hit him, throwing to the side and swinging his claws at Niklas's chest.

Allison moved to slash across Niklas' ankles, but cried out as the hard part of the bow was hit across her hands. She released her grip on the daggers for a second, but still hanging from her finger she grasped them again, rolling slightly to get a better ankle behind him rather than in front, moving once again to cut into his leg.

Riley bit her lip and cursed under her breath as she saw Nik hurting Derek and Allison. She made sure to aim at the right place before shooting an arrow into his chest.

Isaac watched in horror at the scene in front of him but he knew better than to make himself known to Nik too soon, just in case something were to happen. Looking back at Keir, he pointed slightly to a place inside that would give them enough cover to hide and be ready to attack when it came down to it. He moved quietly to the spot, keeping low and out of sight.

Keir noticed that Isaac had motioned towards him, and so he nodded again, following quietly behind Isaac to the spot he had motioned at. Keeping low to the ground, it was hard not to try and see what was happening, but Keir knew that if they blew their cover, their help wouldn't be as helpful. There was a deep sigh in the back of his mind, hoping that everything would go accordingly, and Clair would be safe.

Niklas tried not to panic seeing the alpha and the huntress both coming for him but he was not expecting the arrow. Thank fuck he was wearing his vest to protect him, but it did knock him down. But also made Derek miss but Allison connected. He quickly threw a puch hard in Allison's direction and a knife slashing towards the alpha stomach.

Clair kept moving her chair away as the three fought, her hands bleeding as she finally slid them from the chains. The chair fell back as she tried to keep moving, the girl slowly crawling away to hide behind one of the machines.

Derek grunted when his claws missed, taking a few steps back as the knife connected with his stomach. He growled, looking at Riley and hoping she would shoot Niklas as he attacked once again.

Allison was slightly winded by the punch, but her anger gave her the adrenaline she needed, springing back to her feet, glancing over to check on Clair, but found she was missing - taking a deep breath, she told herself she had to assume it was a good thing, and turned her focus back to Niklas. Seeing the attack on Derek, she quickly moved to Niklas' side instead, allowing Riley a good angle at the front, and giving Derek a few minutes to recover even a little strength, grabbing hold of Niklas' arm, trying to twist the knife from his grasp.

Riley: me/ instinctively moved forward , ready to jump and help but backed away quickly knowing it would be better if she stayed up seeing her position as an advantage. She noticed that her arrow didn't do much damage and decided to aim at places she knew wouldn't be covered. She aimed at his collarbones and shot her second arrow. Then she took and other one , shooting into his shoulder.

Isaac caught the movement of a girl in a chair. His brow furrowed as he watched her crawl away to hide. Knowing she would need to be protected, Isaac pointed her out to Keir. "I don't know who she is, but go stay with her. She's hurt. Stay low and be quiet. I'll give you a signal on when to move," he said just loud enough for only Keir to pick up.

Keir followed Isaac's fingers and nodded, "got it," he murmured under his breath, "just tell me when to go, and I'll go. Stay safe." He glanced at Isaac, and then turned his attention back to the girl. He would make sure she would be safe.

Niklas fought back to the huntress, there was no way she would get control over him that easily. Elbowing her in the ribs before slashing the other knife he was holding over her arm to let her go. At this point he was not winning the fight and seeing the chair was now empty of his mutt he cursed loudly picking up his bows and fighting back. An arrow connecting with his vest, bearly, and another in hia arm. He shot one quickly back in that direction with perfect aim. Just a standard silver tipped arrow and got another out with his hand, stabbing it into the alpha. A splinter head, right above his hip, trying to stop his quick movements.

Clair watched the fight with widened eyes, a hopeful smile curling her lips as two arrows hit him. She looked up to see Riley, tears running down her cheeks; they had come back for her, both Riley and Derek keeping their promises. But the hope quickly left when she saw the arrow go towards Riley, looking back at the fight to see Niklas stab the Alpha. "Derek!" she cried, holding on tightly to the edge of the machine as someone came to her side.

Derek was too distracted to see the arrow in the hunter's hand, trying to grab the bow to make him miss Riley but getting stabbed instead. He felt the tip break apart inside his body, the pieces slashing his body making him fall back and transform back. He pulled out the arrow with a cry, only being able to throw a kick at Niklas knee.

Allison cried out, falling back, just in time to see the arrow being pointed at Riley. Derek's cry was the next thing to catch her attention, and she stood up, slashing her dagger through Niklas' bowstring to prevent any more long-range attacks at Riley, following through to slash across his hand, ignoring the pain in her arm

Riley was ready to take an other arrow when she felt a sharp pain in her arm and whimpered , he got her. She took it out and cursed too distracted by what was happening below her to wrap it with something. Her arrows weren't affecting him enough , she had to go down and help. She climbed down to an other level to make sure she wouldn't get hurt by getting down. She took a deep breath and jumped, landing on her feet. The impact made her heels sting but she ignored it , running quickly towards them.

Isaac couldn't watch anymore. The sounds and smell of blood had him moving at full speed without any warning. Gripping the same knife Nik had used on him, he moved quickly behind the hunter and wrapped his arm tightly around his throat before plunging the knife into his shoulder with a primal growl.

Keir gritted his teeth and snarled behind Isaac. "Fuck it," he murmured under his breath as Isaac raced towards Niklas. Swiftly, he moved towards Clair, "you'll be safe with me, okay? I'm here to help. My name is Keir." Holding Clair tightly he growled at the scent of blood and the sounds of battle.

Niklas was knocked down by the alphas swift kick, and yelled out in frustration as the huntress broke his bow. heing liftet to his feet by one beta he had hurt before, grunting at the knife entering his shoulder. Pulling out a flash bomb arrow and letting it fall to the ground to distract all the wolves. Just enought to break free ane shift away from teh attackers. he was hurt, too hurt he had to fight dirty, not that he cared. Throwing his arrows like spiers, first to the beta that had stabbed him, aiming for his chest with a splinter head. Then to the alpha again thing time with a sliver tipped arrow head. He turned to kick Reily away before trying to land another punch on Allison. This was not going to work. he backed up towards some of the machines that lay dorment in the werehouse throwing out another flash bomb arrow head. Trying to make a get away

Clair tried to get away from the male coming towards her, shaking her head as he spoke. "You need to leave," she told him, struggling against his grip. "He's going to kill us!" The first flash bomb blinded her, crying out as she became frustrated with the commotion and pushed the male away, crawling towards the direction he had come from. She kept her eyes closed, letting the rest of her senses lead her to try to find the exit. She heard the second flash bomb, getting the hunters scent and quickly pushing back into a wall; he was standing in front of her.

Derek stared wide eyed as Isaac entered the scene, scowling at the boy's disobedience as he got to his feet. "Close your eyes!" he warned as he saw the arrow, covering his eyes as the tip hit the floor. He heard Niklas move, the sound of another arrow being set up making the Alpha open his eyes. He tried to run and block it from hitting Isaac, but he got slowed down by an arrow piercing his back. Derek kept moving to Isaac's side, pulling Allison with him so Niklas punch would miss.

Allison dodged Niklas' attack with Derek's help, sharply exhaling from the sudden movement. "Thanks." She muttered, looking back at Niklas noting how he was wearing out, especially with his latest attack method - it was uncoordinated, and catching Riley's eye, she nodded in confirmation, a slightly twisted smirk of satisfaction on her face. Seeing Niklas backing away though, her face twisted into determination again, and she huffed, launching herself forward, holding her dagger to his throat, and she snarled into his ear. "You want to pretend you're so scary? Die with some fucking respect for yourself and not running like a coward, or I swear I will do it right here and now."

Riley eyes widen at the sight of Isaac coming out of nowhere.She backed away at Nicklas kick , running forward again. She nodded back at Allison and watched her with anticipation , dagger in hand.

Isaac covered his face at the warning from Derek. He bit down on a yelp at the pain that exploded in his chest. Shaking slightly, he growled loudly while watching Allison move to Nik. Noticing the arrow in Derek's back, Isaac reached out and pulled it out. His sense were on high alert as he crouched readily into a fighting stance.

Keir stared at her and shook his head, "No, not after what's he's done and did to you," he replied until she struggled against his grip. When she pushed him away he let out a growl in frustration, "god dammit, fucking shit," he almost yelled, when he noticed Nik standing before Clair. Rushing to her side he let out a growl, and tried to pull her away, never mind the injuries he might sustain in the process. "This is why you should've just stayed with me," he mumbled.

Niklas grunted at being held by Allison. Not letting her again get the upperhand and rammed an arrow ont her leg and getting her off. Snacking her kife from her and suddenly seeing Clair he rammed it into her stomach. "You can die in front of all of them." Throwing another flash bomb arrow to the ground.

Clair was paralyzed by the sight of Niklas, getting snapped out of it by the growl Keir made. She tried to shush him, tears running down her face as he mumbled to her. "You were too loud!" She stood, not realizing the hunter had seen her. She gasped as the knife entered her stomach, meeting the hunters eyes as he spoke to her. Anger suddenly filled her, the same words he had used before killing her mother being spoken to her giving her the strength she needed. Her irises then turned gold, claws extending, and stabbed the man's stomach. "Go to hell!" Clair pulled her claws up, opening five deep lacerations from his stomach to his chest.

Derek pressed his lips together when Isaac pulled out the arrow, grabbing the one the boy had in his chest and taking it out. "I told you not to come," he whispered, turning his head when he heard Clair's gasp. He moved towards her, panic filling him, until he saw her eyes change. He stood behind the hunter, pulling it off Clair as blood spilled all over the girl. He held her, pulling her away slowly from the hunter. "It's okay," he told her. "It's okay."

Allison screamed as the arrow entered her leg, and she fell to one side, scrambling out of the way of the flash bomb arrow. She didn't risk pulling the arrow out in case she bled out, and gritted her teeth at the pain, looking around in a panic for another weapon, now her's were being used against them. She watched as Clair acted, staggering to her feet in case she was needed

Riley rushed to Allison side breaking the tip of the arrow that was in her leg. She bit her lip at the view realizing it was a deeper wound than she thought. ''Do you need me to do something , anything? '' she quietly asked after watching Clair stab Niklas.

Isaac didn't even flinch at Derek pulling the arrow from his chest. "Yeah and I told you to try not to almost die. We're even." He muttered back. He was soon occupied as he watched the female tear into Nik with small wonderment. Looking around, Isaac found Keir and heaved out a breath of relief before moving over to him. "You okay?" He asked lowly as he held out a hand to help him up.

Keir gave a soft howl as the flash bomb momentarily blinded his eyes and he stumbled to the ground, his eyes blinded and his ears ringing. His sense of smell told him both the hunter and Clair were still by, but he gave a relieved sigh as he felt Isaac approach, "yeah," he said, fumbling around until he grasped his hand, "now let's put that motherfucker back where he belongs." Getting up from the ground, he shook his head, "I'd worry about yourself more than me," he grimaced, once he was able to take a look of the injuries on Isaac.

Niklas was stunned that teh little pup even had the nerve to stand in front of him let alone reach out and capture him with her claws. The breath taking pain of feeling both his lungs punctured made him make an ungodly gasp. Staring into her eyes as he fought for breath. She had him and then.....

Clair stared into the hunters eyes, seeing the surprised in them and then...nothing. They stared at her unfocused, all the fear that once they had inflected on her disappearing completely. She held onto Derek as he pulled her away, her knees buckling beneath her. She looked up at the Alpha, "It's over..." Clair couldn't help but cry, burying her face in his chest.

Derek nodded at the girl's words, "It's over." He held her as she cried, waiting a few seconds before bending to put an arm under he knees and lifting her. He limped as he carried Clair, his eyes searching the room to make sure everyone was okay. Derek let out a sigh, looking at Allison, "He doesn't deserve a burial."

Allison shook her head at Riley, hugging her with one arm. "Go and find Stiles. Don't be alone right now." She nodded at Derek, unsure of what she had to do herself, but she knew it had to be done. "You go. Now. I don't want you to see anything." She locked eyes with him, making sure he understood, and she looked over at Isaac and Keir. "I need help, if you feel up to it."

Isaac looked at Allison and nodded. He knew what Derek meant and why Allison would need his and Keir's help. "Yeah, I'm fine. I'll take care of myself later, what are we going to do with him?"

Keir shrugged his shoulder as Allison looked over at him, "I'm up to it. I'm pretty sure Isaac's worse off than I am, so if he can, then I can." Taking a moment to think, he cocked his head and answered Isaac, "I don't know... burn him? Actually, can we just burn this entire warehouse down? It's a bit creepy and I don't like it."
