Enter the Den of the Wolf [Open]

Derek scrunched up his face adorably in thought, but he was glad Ayame was taking care with his families legacy and not spilling any tea on any of the old pages of the book she was reading. Yet still thinking on Morgan he knew that Morgan would not disappear lightly, perhaps he left because Kate hovered around and watched the aftermath of the destruction and saw how close Morgan was to himself and Laura, maybe she tried to harm Morgan in an attempt for one last hurrah against the Hale Pack… because Morgan would always be Pack to Derek… and to Laura as well if she was still with them. So he thought it was likely if that occurred Morgan fled to protect the Sheriff and young Stiles, or was something else at work. He decided he would get to the bottom of it, and maybe talking to the Sheriff might be a good idea as the Sheriff would know about his eldest son’s location.

If Derek could have shifted into a full on wolf and was in that form right now his ears would have perked right up at the thought of Morgan following after himself and Laura. Yet he still thought it was unlikely as both he and Laura remained under the radar to keep everyone safe from the hunters that destroyed all that the held dear.

“I don’t see how he could of… we left so suddenly and left no trail to follow…” Derek grimaced and wondered what did not add up, but Ayame’s attempt to comfort him did not go unnoticed. It was like how Cora and Frederick where left unaccounted amongst the burnt out remains of the fire. Nothing but ash left covering any tracks to follow. He groaned and pinched the bridge of his nose.

“Something does not add up and I don’t like it… I can’t help but wonder if it has anything to do with how Morgan smelt…”

Derek was not a violent person by nature not that many knew that because of he reacted to most of the problems in his life so far. His answer to kill the Kanima, was to kill it at first after all. His answer to deal with the Alpha Pac was to train his betas to exhaustion because he wanted them to live. He was a survivor but he had not been truly living since the day Laura was found torn in half. Perhaps it was time for him to start living again and he would start by pulling HIS pack back together eve though he was not an Alpha again. He would find Cora, track down and see if Frederick was truly alive and investigate Morgan’s disappearance even if he had to slam Stiles against the wall respectively to get the answer out of him… not that he enjoyed doing that… oh who was he kidding he loved roughing up that smart mouthed teen. His eyes hardened with a look of resolve and determination.

Derek nodded when Ayame said she did not know and then followed up with maybe in partial agreement. “I would prefer if you kept the scent thing about Morgan quiet if you could… its been a debate on what it means for years between myself and Laura…”

Regardless he had goals to fulfill and he glanced around his Den and noticed it was not fitted for a Pack to dwell in… so he figured he should get some help in getting it fixed up and set up properly for a pack. Maybe he could get Lydia’s help and still have it fixed up for his own taste. He finished coffee and placed the mug in the sink before walking over to Ayame.

“find anything worth while?”

Derek was thankful when he heard Ayame agree to keep it between them. He studied her a bit before looking over her should at the book she was flicking through and noticed she was reading up on various herbs. “Be prepared to have samples of every form of aconite you ca get your hands on, for if your pack is attack by laced bullets you will need to match the poison in the wound with ash of the same poison to cure them before it is too late as aconite can be fatal if ingested or injected into our blood streams. Mistletoe is also no good for us but in a powder state it can be used to disrupt magic, also another must always have mountain ash on you as it will protect you from hostile supernatural creatures”

Derek nodded when he she mentioned about collecting said plants and researching them and their affects and to have jars to store them in and he let an eyebrow rise when she mentioned the scratching. “what does it sound like?” He also shook his head in amusement over her mentioning to bring a notebook next time and rolled his eyes. He chuckled under his breathe before collecting Ayame’s mug and deposited it in the sink before turning to her.

“better luck next time I suppose”

Derek listened intently as Ayame mentioned that it sounded like scratching and he had a theory. He noticed her look over at him as if he was crazy. He listened further when she mentioned it was like something was scratching at the base of her skull. He rolled her eyes at her sticking her tongue out at him and he was reminded of Laura’s cheeky playfulness and he felt another pang of loss reverberate through his whole being and he internally whined for his alpha, his sister; Laura. He moved to look at her as trying to figure out what she was feeling like it was a puzzle. He pondered on it for a long while.

“I have a theory, trust me on this and know that I don’t want to hurt you”

Derek reached to the base of her skull and slipped his fingers into the position that would be scratching and gently dragged them down, he did this for a few moments so she could get the idea of what it felt like before he spoke up.

“Did it feel some what like that?” He then removed his hands and stepped back from her and flicked out his right hand letting his claws out in as what he hoped was n a none threatening way. “Except maybe it feels like its being down with claws like mine?” Derek flexed his claws a bit so that the girl could examine them close up. “If you need to examine them go ahead, just be careful they are razor sharp”

Notes; rawr! His claws have come out!

Derek watched Ayame take his hand and examine his claws with out touching them. She seemed to look at them with reverent look of amazement which she actually exclaimed by saying amazing. He studied her for a moment while she looked over his claws further before she placed her free hand on the base of her neck. He saw her begin to think heavily before she muttered about how she wonder if the noise and feeling tells her that she is around a werewolf. She released his hand and she paused and look adorably awkward. She apologized saying that she was not thinking and he raised an eyebrow high not knowing what she was apologizing for.

Derek watched her close the book she was reading before replacing it with another. She began flipping through the pages as if looking answers untold. He grunted as if to clear his throat. “Its possible, based on how you described the scratching and how it matched up with how I would claw at some one with my claws but it would also depend on what noise you are hearing as different creatures make different noises”

He stretched his aching joints before moving over to a bar he had installed to do chin ups and he started to work on doing some to pass the time as he talked after all he wanted to stay in shape. He mentally counted each chin up as he went up and down with out breaking a sweat. “for example us werewolves especially born wolves make canine like noises from time to time… we often howl as a form communication as well”

Derek did not mind Ayame touching his hand at all as it was for a good cause, right? It was true he was not fond of most people invading his space, but he made an exception for this girl as she seemed harmless enough and she reminded him of Cora. Over al he was in a good mood as he kept working out, further counting each chin up mentally as the tension from before drained away. He raised an eyebrow when she grinned at him working out, he was bored so sue him and he liked to keep in shape, even though he was a werewolf that six pack would not stay if he slacked off. He nodded and grunted when he heard her say, ‘ Yeah, well, I can’t really say if it’s based on other creatures or not. I’ve apparently only run in to werewolves’ and he responded after another grunt.

“Well… only time will tell how it works”

Derek then had an amusing idea which also struck out as one of his more secretive geeky moments as the ability to detect werewolves like that reminded him of Buffy’s ability to sense her own foes like Spiderman’s spidey sense. He grinned as his muscles flexed and bounced from each chin up and he sassed out an amusing comment.

“Well it appears we have a new slayer among us… for Buffy’s spider sense if tingling”

Derek grunted and groaned as he heaved up and down on the bar. He watched Ayame continue to flip through the pages of the book she read and he quirked an eyebrow as she mouthed the words on the page she was reading. The words where about druids could come in any size and shape or age. Which was true he recall Jennifer’s true form, how scarred and deformed and he stopped working out to shudder heavily. To think he had been coerced to sleep with that… he considered the time he slept with Jennifer to be a form of rape as it was most likely he was whammied by some dark druid mumbo jumbo and the fact that he was used like that haunted him and made him feel sick to the bones. This was one of the reasons why he could never be with another woman again. He heard Ayame ask if he found her threatening at all, but he ignored it for the moment. He sighed deeply as he padded into the bathroom and stripped off his shirt and tossed it in his hamper and grabbed a towel to wipe off his sweat before walking out to his dresser and slipping on a Wife Beater on.

Derek rose an eyebrow as he padded back over to Ayame but he choose to respond to her question. “No not really… your about as threatening as Stiles to me which is a step up from Scott as most days he as threatening as a puppy who is chasing after Kira’s proverbial tail” He grunted as he walked over to the fridge before opening it and pulling out a bottle of spring water and opened the top of it before downing the contents. He closed the fridge and leaned against the counter.
