Chapter 4 Power

A loud roar from both sides decided the start of the battle as I ran straight towards Derek with a great amount of speed with my right shoulder forward bashing him away. With my speed, Derek couldn't react in time and took the full brunt of the attack which sent him tumbling backwards. With that one move, everyone else suddenly stopped fighting for a brief moment as they couldn't believe what had just happened. They couldn't believe that another werewolf could overpower a alpha in just one more, this made Scott think about what they had just talked about just a moment ago and couldn't believe that they're are other types of werewolves out there. Sure he knew that there purebred and ones who were bitten and there are some differences between them but this, is much different.

Eyes glowing a constant bright cold blue, I started to shift a bit more and bring out a little more power as my face started to rapidly shift as I grow longer side-burns and my forehead wrinkle in and cave in more giving me a more meaner and intimidating look.

" You better go all out Derek, because I am just getting started."

Feeling a little stunned and disbelief from the impact, Derek started to also shift completely came towards me filled with anger and arrogance.

He swung with his right hand at me with claws out, full of killing intent, aiming at my chest. In most fights, attacking from the chest upwards, it is most likely the quickest way to take someone out, therefore, it is always an obvious move when one is filled with anger and frustration. I lowered my body down to a low squat as I winded up my left arm and launched my body forwards with both great speed and power slashing his right abdomen.

This feeling, the blood rushing and pumping vigorously throughout my body. The smell of blood on my claws and on the body of the one I struck just brought a greater rush. The fact that his bloodline felt a lot purer and powerful then the rest of the werewolves here gave me a greater sense of confidence in my power. This feeling... I can just can drunk on this alone.

Drunk on this feeling, I gotten woken up shortly by the stares I received from the people around me. It was filled with faces full of fear. It was then that I noticed that I had a huge grin on my face. If one could describe it, it would look like I was in madly in love with the blood on my hand as I it was closely to my face.

" Uh, this isn't what it looks like." I scratched my head shamelessly with a smile, " I'm not some kind of perv and have a fetish with blood or anything like that."

But I was answered with even more silence. I raised in hands up like I was giving up and continued, " First of all this is my first fight. My beastly side might've gotten the better side of me haha." As I said that there was a loud screeching noise heard from the roof of Lydia's house.

Derek holding his wound and looked towards the sound, " Lydia."

When I looked towards the noise, I saw a fairly large scaly looking creature with a long tail and yellow slit eyes. It didn't exactly have fangs like ours but small small razor sharp teeth.

" What an ugly looking creature."

I found that a little strange since when I saw Lydia, she looked fairly beautiful and felt unique when I was in her presence.

A few seconds later, a girl came out of the house, " Can someone here please tell me what's going on?!"

It was then that we all realized that the kanama was not Lydia and was Jackson after all. Derek and the others were confused because a snake can't be poisoned by its own venom, yet, Jackson in his human form was paralyzed by his own venom. It just didn't make any sense to everyone.

Whilst in their shock of finding out this information it jumped off the roof and started running off with a fast speed. Derek tried to run after him but stumbled because of the injury. Instead I smiled because when I met Jackson, he was kind of a dick so I would be glad to fight him. I ran with speed and managed to get in front of him in an alley with Scott and the others a bit farther behind.

As I stood in front of the changed Jackson, it glared at me and hissed. Hearing the hiss, I chuckled a little as the creature in front of me was half werewolf and never in my life have I heard a wolf or any wolf-like creature hiss like a cat or snake.

A wolf should howl or roar like a predator they are so I roared at Jackson that seemed to intimidate it a little as it took a step back screamed back. It then brought it's tail and pierced it towards me quickly, but I dodged. Quick but predictable. As I side tilted my body to dodge, its tail was pulled quickly behind itself and then it lunged at me with its claws filled with venom.

Instead of dodging this time, I prepared a defensive stance and stood my ground as my hand grabbed onto the claws. I squeezed the claws with a great amount of force breaking the hand and causing the Kanima to scream. I started to squeeze more but felt like my hands was started to get numb. Shocked, I quickly lifted the kanima up and over my shoulders as I slammed it hard into the ground breaking the cement under it.

The numbness soon started to spread all over my body as it brought me down to a knee. Thinking quickly, I quickly pressed my claws to my palms causing me to bleed and soon the numbness started to disappear. I smiled at the sudden feeling that was coming back. Looks like it can affect me to a certain degree but with my regeneration ability, I won't be affected like how others would be.

The Kanima quickly got back up but I was already prepared and lunged forward towards its neck and slashed it, causing it to bleed rapidly. With one more slash it fell on the ground and didn't move.

Shortly after, a car pulled up as Scott, Stiles, and Derek showed up.

Scott " No, what did you do?"

Shrugging my shoulders, " I stopped it from hurting more people. What else is there to do?"

Scott " It didn't have to be like this. We could have figured it out."

I gave him a questioning look, " It took you guys a while to get here. In the small timeframe, Jackson had the power to maim and kill ordinary people with ease. "

Scott " Still, it didn't mean that you had to kill him."

I looked at him and then at Derek with a confused face. Did he just not hear me? " So you think Jackson's life is more important to the lives of innocent people who aren't strong enough to protect themselves? Jackson? Although I barely know him, in that short time frame, he was pretty much of a dick and kind of selfish."

As I said that, I noticed that the Kanima was started to shift back and turn him back to the regular human Jackson with healed injuries. Seeing this, I narrowed my eyes as I prepared to attack it again. However, I was stopped by Scott who held onto my arm.

" Do you think you can stop me?"

Scott " No, but I do know that it doesn't have to be this way. If we can just figure out what's happening with Jackson then we can end this peacefully."

Hearing his words, I decided to give up. Scott seemed pretty confident that there is another solution. To be honest I don't really want to kill anyone either. Killing Jackson was sort of like an impulse in me, maybe it was because of how ugly he looked as a Kanima.

I lowered my hand and said, " Well... I did my part. I don't really want to start a fight with you. So I'll leave it at this."
