A call for help??

Laying down in his bed Elias closed his eyes drifting off to La La Land.

"Elias," A whisper forced him to open his eyes, only he wasn't in his bed anymore. He was back in Mystic Fall, dark clouds filled the sky. The soft rumbling of thunder could be heard every now and then.

"Elias," There it was again. The whisper, looking up Elias realized he was now standing in front of his home. The brown brick house that brought back so many memories seemed less warm. Something had changed.

Running across the lawn he jogged up the steps quickly reaching for the door handle. Twisting it open smoke rolled out of the house as he realized there was a fire happening inside.

"Elias," The whisper was coming from inside the house. Stepping inside he was the old family pictures being burned to ashes. A red blazing fire was coming from the back room where his grandmother usually did her spells. Walking over to the doorway he paused as he heard the whisper again.

"Elias," This time he was sure it was coming from this room. Taking a step forward he frowned as he felt his body freeze. He couldn't go in, something was stopping him.

"Elias, she needs your help," This time the voice said more.

"Who? Who needs my help?" Elias asked, looking around the house.

"They're already here," Before he could ask who he was pulled out of the house by an invisible force.

"Elias," Opening his eyes Elias spotted Stiles standing over him shaking his shoulder.

"What happened?" He asked, wondering why Stiles was waking him up.

"You were screaming," Stiles said with a frown on his face. "I forgot my phone so I came to grab it and when I got here I heard you screaming."

"What did I say?" Elias asked.

"You were asking who needed your help," Stiles said, raising an eyebrow.

As if struck by lightning Elias remembered his dream. Only now he didn't think it was his dream no, it felt like a message. His grams, she needed his help. Why else would it be her house, her spell room?

Strengthening his resolve he made a decision. He was going home.

That night Elias barely got any sleep. He was worried that something had gone wrong back home. Eventually, he got tired of tossing and turning and instead opted to get up and go for a run. By the time he got back home, the sun had already risen.

Stiles stood outside the manor leaning against his jeep as he looked down at his phone. He seemed to hear Elias as he looked up at him the moment Elias was going to speak.

"How's Lydia? Any signs that she's a werewolf?" He didn't think she was especially not after that scream she had let out last night but he wanted to be sure.

"Nope, she's a regular teenage girl. Allison is with her right now, after what Peter did I don't think she's going to be alone by herself for a while." Stiles spoke with a bit of anger in his voice causing Elias to nod.

"When I get out of the shower we're going to find Derek." Elias didn't wait for his reply, quickly running inside to get a shower. When he returned Stiles was still in his jeep with the engine started. Werewolf hearing tended to make things smoother. Getting in the Jeep he looked forward waiting on Stiles to pull off.

"Dude I can't drive if I don't know where I'm going," Stiles said with mock annoyance.

"Just drive, I'll give directions as we're going." The next 15 minutes were a montage of Stiles having no idea where he was going while Elias gave directions.

"Take a right here, stop the car." As Stiles came to a stop he turned to Elias with a frown on his face. They stopped in front of a couple of high-end apartment buildings.

"Derek's here? You mean the guy who lived inside a burnt-down house is here?" Stiles couldn't believe it. "How'd you know he was here anyway?" He asked.

"Pack Bond," He said jokingly.

"Wait you mean, we're able to talk to each other telepathically? That's awesome!!! Have you and Derek been talking this whole time? Is it because he's an alpha."

Elias paused hearing so many questions. Reaching for his phone he aimed the screen towards Stiles. "GPS," Seeing Stiles look of utter disappointment Elias couldn't hold back his laughter. Pack Bond? Talking Telepathically? Only someone like Stiles would believe it was possible.

Elias stepped out of the vehicle placing his phone in his pocket. Looking up at the high-end apartments he spotted a pair of dark eyes veering at him from one of the highest windows. It was Derek, he looked down for a couple of seconds before vanishing.

"It's this way," He led the way, taking the stairs they soon ended up in front of a pair of double doors.

"Should we knock?" Stiles asked from the side.

"No need," Elias replied as the double doors were pulled open. Derek Stood in front of them breathing heavily, his eyes constantly flashing a devious red.

"You guys shouldn't be here," He said as his teeth elongated. He gripped his abdomen tightly as his nails on his other hand tore into the door.

"Yeah maybe you're right," Stiles said, turning to walk back towards the stairs only for Elias' hand to reach over placing a hand on his shoulder. Giving him a nod Stiles took a step back now standing behind Elias.

"Derek I'm going to need you to calm down," Elias said softly.

"I can't, I'm losing control." As he spoke his eyes stopped blinking red, finally settling on the color of blood.

"Unfortunately that means I'll have to calm you down," Allowing his eyes to flash a hint of red Elias watched as Derek's began to fade before he was finally once again in control of himself.

"Thank you, Elias," taking a step back Derek actually smiled as he welcomed Stiles and Elias.

"No problem, I like the upgrade," Elias said stepping inside and taking a look around the place. He had everything from couches to tables and lamps. Everything inside was a very dull color matching the almost concrete gray walls. Off to the side was a brick wall only a hole that could fit a car inside was there.

"Yeah sure beats the burnt down house and the railroad tracks," Stiles said quickly taking a step back as Derek sent a glare his way.

"So, besides a friendly visit is there any other reason you both decided to come here today?" Derek asked walking over to his fridge grabbing a water bottle.

"I'm leaving Beacon Hills," Elias said, surprising both Derek and Stiles.

"You're coming back right?" Stiles asked with worry.

"I'm going to visit family, I haven't seen my grams and sister in a long time." Elias smiled thinking about them both.

"I'll go with you," Derek said, taking a sip of his water.

"You're still adapting to your new status right now. You should stay here and let your body rest. If when it's done I'm still there feel free to join me."

"I'm going too," Stiles said with a nod.

"Nope, you remember the nightmare I had yesterday Stiles?" Elias asked, getting an ominous nod from Stiles and a curious stare from Derek. "I have a feeling this visit won't be peaceful. After Peter, you and Scott need to relax here in beacon hills. Enjoy the break, I'll be back before school starts."

"But-" Stiles made to speak but Elias cut him off.

"Stiles Lydia needs you right now more than ever. Spend the break with her." Elias nodded with a smile as Stiles himself nodded.

"Derek you'll be in charge while I'm gone. If anything happens listen to him." Elias turned to Stiles.

"Wait does that mean when he leaves I'll be in charge?" Stiles asked.

"Yeah," Elias nodded as Stiles himself seemed to daydream about what it would be like to be the alpha in charge although he wasn't an alpha.
