"What the h.e.l.l is that?"Scott and Derek turned to see that Stiles was pointing at Derek. Derek immediately washed the blood on his back and checked in the mirror.
As soon as he saw what it was he was frightened and cold sweat was pouring all over his body.
There it was, in his back one inch short nails around 40 of then pierced and arranged in letters. As they carefully read that it was a three letter word "BYE" was seen there.
Scott started to have a mental breakdown. He started screaming, "He"s gonna kill me. He"s gonna kill me! He knows who I am. He"ll come and kill me!"
Derek suddenly slapped him and brought him back to his senses and said, "If he"s gonna kill anyone it"ll be me and that alpha. You have nothing to worry about."

Scott and Stiles didn"t believe him. Stiles said, "I don"t mind you and Papa Wolf getting killed by nails, well I mean who does even uses nails to kill these days?"
Scott also said, "I"m dating his sister, man. The minute he knows about that, I"m a dead man. Can you be sure that I"m safe after this?"
Stiles was taken aback by this sentence. so he asked, "What do you mean by that Scott? What the h.e.l.l is he saying, d.i.c.k? Don"t tell me it"s Allison"s brother Max who did this to you."
Derek only nodded and said, "Yeah, it"s that Argent kid. He"s the youngest Hunter I"ve ever seen. But looking at his skills, he seems more than enough to take us both down without breaking a sweat.
And Scott, I don"t think he wanted to kill us. If he wanted to kill us today we would"ve been dead in those Hunters hands."
Stiles interjected suddenly, "What do you mean by Hunters? I mean could they kill you guys and walk away like nothing happened?"
Scott suddenly became interested. Derek watching these two guys, he knew that he has to tell them everything or else they"ll never trust him. So he decided to tell them.
"Scott, do you know why even with all these powers you rarely ever heard about them except from myths and legends before this?"
"Isn"t it because there society doesn"t accept us and treat us differently?" Scott said.
Derek shook his head and said, "With such power, why would we ever care about what others think? It"s not because of what you said. The reason is these Hunters.
The Hunters have been hunting us from centuries. The story about them goes back as far as the first werewolf. But now that"s not important, what"s important is that Hunters have always existed in every town, every county, City and state. As we belong to the supernatural side, they are of the natural side, that means, they"re of humans. They--"
Stiles suddenly interrupted him, "You"re saying that it was a human that did this two both of you. Haven"t you seen yourself in the mirror? Tell me what kind of human could do that? What kind of wolves are you? Getting your a.s.sess handed to you by a 16 year old kid."
Scott didn"t talk. He just waited for Derek to finish. Derek started at Stiles an growled and said, "You wanna try saying that again?"
Stiles immediately shut up. Looking at this Derek continued, "As I was saying, they are humans who trained themselves for years and specialize in hunting our kind. Over the last two decades their weapons have improved, but our kind have slowly been reduced in numbers. If you need an example for this, you can see my family history. They locked everyone in our house, poured gasoline and burned my entire family an my house to the ground."
Scott and Stiles gasped after hearing this. Derek paused for a second and continued, "They say that they have a code "We hunt those who hunt us." that"s what they said. But what did the kids our family do? There were so many innocent people in our house that day, those d.a.m.n Hunters, they didn"t even flinch while they slaughtered them."
Derek was pulling off the nails one by one from his body while saying this. He could only clench his fist and continue, "Okay. forget about that. Now back to the topic at hand. That Argent kid that nailed us today. I mean I have seen skills similar to him from Hunters who"s been hunting our kind for decades, but never did I expect this from him. He"s the true monster there. Do you remember when I was telling you to stay away from that Allison girl? This was why. If she"s also anywhere like him or close to his strength, then the supernaturals in Beacon Hills are in for a wide awakening."
Scott was clenching his fist as soon as he heard about Allison being a Huntress. He knew he loved her, but he didn"t know how she would react after knowing that he"s a werewolf. He thought about it and decided not to make any decisions impulsively and wait for now.
Stiles on the other hand suddenly turned and asked, "What? You mean to tell me that there are other supernatural beings in Beacon Hills? Why didn"t we know anything about this before today?"
Derek just said, "Does knowing this give you any solution to the problem at hand? Listen here you two, what you"ve seen till now is just a peek in the supernatural world. As for other supernatural beings, they decided to keep low key and not gather any attention. Now with this alpha showing up and started slaughtering everyone, The Hunters decided to put an end to it. By my guess, I think they were hunting that alpha, it used us as distraction to run away. By this alone you should know how terrifying Hunters are."
Scott hearing this said, "So they can hunt us like animals and we can"t do anything about it?"
Derek reminded him, "Did you remember how I told you that they won"t kill you? That"s because you haven"t killed any human yet. The minute you kill any human, they"ll start hunting you. And try not to mess with their family, I know you like that girl, but given chance she"ll stick an arrow through your head. So stay away from her."
Derek let them understand the situation they are in and said, "See, Scott, I"m a loner, I could just skip town to get away from them. But you"re not like me. You"ve got your family an friends and everything here. You can"t just leave everything and walk away. So think carefully before you make any decisions."
By now Derek had almost pulled all the nails in his body, but the wound wasn"t healing, "d.a.m.n, he used a new kind of wolfsbane for this small nails which he used to nail this "BYE" on my back, this probably might leave a scar. That kid was just toying with us! #growl#"
Derek couldn"t help but growl thinking about Max. Stiles also helped Scott remove the three inch nails from his shoulders and arms. Scott was flinching every time Stiles pulled out a nail. Compared to Derek"s small nails these three inch nails weren"t laced with wolfsbane so it was healing pretty well, but the pain wasn"t going away.
Derek was finally able to move his left hand after removing the three inch nails. And with Stiles helping him, they removed all the nails in his back too.
Stiles was chuckling watching the "BYE" behind Derek. After getting dressed they decided to leave for their home. Stiles wished goodbye to Scott and turned to Derek. Stiles smirking slowly said, "Hey Derek, BYE"
#growl#
Derek growled at Stiles and decided not to speak anymore. He went towards his Hale mansion.
Scott in his home couldn"t sleep after hearing about Hunters and how Allison might be one of them.
Unbeknownst to Scott, Max was standing right behind him, watching Scott with a smile. After a few minutes he disappeared from there.
Scott was thinking about talking to Allison about them being Hunters, but after thinking that she might talk to Max about this, he decided not to speak about this and slowly dozed off.
