The McCall pack and Layla and Theo met at the animal clinic. Deaton decided to close the clinic early for today when he saw the pack come in with Theo and a girl, which is probably Scott's true mate since her eyes are glowing purple and Scott's eyes are red.

"Hello, what can I help you guys with?" Deaton asked the pack.

"We were wondering if you know about a creature that feeds on negativity," Scott asked. Deaton thought for a second before he walked to a bookshelf and pulled out a big book. He placed the book on the operation table. The title read "Supernatural Beings" He turned to the middle of the book.

"Let's see" Deaton said as he went down the left, "Here it is", stopping at the right page. The pack and Layla and Theo gather around the table to get a look at the book. On the top of the page, there was a picture of a creature.

"The creature you guys are talking sounds like a Sceetryon (ski-tree-an)"

"What the hell is a Sceetryon (ski-tree-an)?" Stiles asked.

"Well, a Sceetryon (ski-tree-an) is a fairy like tiny creature that feeds on and causes negativity. It also seduces men and kills them. These are how she gains and grows powerful. Also, it is how she survives. They can't survive with their body only. She was captured by the wild hunt since you guys opened a rift to get Hayden out, you guys release her."

Everyone nodded in understanding that they brought the Sceetryon (ski-tree-an) to Beacon Hills.

"We are the cause of the damage that is going to happen," Theo said, Layla nodded in agreement, but everyone else ignored him.

"You said that she doesn't not survive with her body only, then how does it survive?" Scott asked.

"They possess someone. They can only possess females, but that female has to have so much negativity and a heartbreak."

"So, we are looking for a female. Do you know how to know who is possessed by the Sceetryon (ski-tree-on)?" Liam asked. Deaton looked down at the page,

"When she is inhaling the negativity, her eyes shift from normal to black. Also, her weakness is silver and when she comes incontact with it, she burns and it reveals her true eyes which are cat-like."

"Okay, so silver is how we defeat it," Sties said. Deaton shaked his head.

"Not quite. The way to defeat it is to break the possession. You have to get the Sceetryon (ski-tree-an) out of the person's body and trap it in a silver jar. Someone has to talk or get through to the person to break free of the possession. The only person to do that is the possessed person's lover or mate if the person is a supernatural being. To kill the Sceetryon (ski-tree-an) is to drown it in silver." Deaton explained as everybody nodded in understanding.

"Why does she only kill men?" Lydia asked.

"As a human, she was betrayed and killed by her husband. Her husband killed her inside an enchanted cave. That where she turned into the Sceetryon (ski-tree-an) and started hunting down men." Deaton answered.

"Damn, she had a rough life" Stiles said, "but, she could have only killed her husband and not every man on the plant." Everyone agreed with him, except for Malia who didn't agree with him. She was thinking of a way to kill him for saying that.

"Does the Sceetryon (ski-tree-an) have any abilities that we need to watch out for? I'm Layla by the way" Layla asked and introduced herself as she watched Malia since she was the only one that was not showing any reactions or tuned into the conversation. It looked like her mind was somewhere else. The information she got so far seems to connect to her since the fighting that happened in the cafeteria and the thing that happens in the morning, she was the cause of it or she caused it. Layla is not sure yet, she will have to keep a close eye on her.

Malia/Sceetryon (ski-tree-an) POV

The alpha's mate asked about my abilities. I can tell that she is on to me since she has been watching me closely ever since this Deaton guy told them about me.

"It's nice to meet you Layla, I'm Deaton, but you probably already know that. To answer your question, yes, she does. Before she reaches her full power, she can make people do her bidding simply by making eye contact. She can mask her scent, so you probably weren't able to smelt her scent. She can manipulate people. When she reaches her full power, she can cast vivid illusions. She can shapeshift." the Deaton guy answered her. She nodded at him. What he said is true. "She has to kill a true alpha to reach her full power. That is her main goal." Everybody nodded in understanding, I made sure to nod along with them to lessen the suspicious Layla has on me. I also decided to ask a question.

"What happens when the Sceetryon (ski-tree-an) become powerful or reach her full power?" I asked.

"When she becomes powerful, it will be hard to defeat it or make the possessed person break from its possession. The person they possessed will be lost forever. The only thing that will remain is their body, the Sceetryon (ski-tree-an) will have complete control over their brain and mind. The Sceetryon (ski-tree-an) will transform into this" the Deaton guy said pointing to a picture of my transformation form on the next page.

"So, she will become Medusa, got it," the annoying kid, what was his name again, oh, Stiles said. I laughed inside since Medusa is my distance cousin, but I'm not quite like her. My hair are not snakes, there are vines that move and grow. Also, I can't turn people into stones. I suck the life force of men. That's my source of food. Yes, I am not a fan of men, they all need to die.

"Yes, something like that, but she doesn't turn people into stone. Her hair is not snakes, but it is vines that move and grow. She sucks the life out of men using those vines and with a kiss, that's her source of food along with negative emotions and feelings" Deaton guy said. I like him, he knows so much about me, too bad he's going to die.

"Okay, we have to make sure she does not get to this transformation." the alpha proposed, everyone nodded in agreement including me, but I'm laughing inside cause they will never figure out I'm inside one of their pack mates. While maybe the hybrid might, but I will make sure she doesn't get the chance to tell the pack.

"Is there anything else that we need to know about the Sceetryon (ski-tree-an)?" the alpha asked. That Deaton guy said everything about me, so there are nothing else to say.

"No, that is it." the deaton guy answered. The alpha nodded and turned to his pack and the two unincluded people.

"You guys wait outside. I have to ask Deaton a personal question." They nodded and walked outside the clinic. I wanted to stay to listen to what he had to say, but I was pushed along with the group by Stiles. I couldn't put up a fight if I didn't want to be suspicious, so I went outside with the group. When we got outside, we waited around the car. I wanted to use Malia's hearing abilities to listen to conversation, but I was stopped by the hybrid.

"Why are you trying to listen to what Scott has to say?" She asked and everybody turned towards me, waiting for my answer. I put on a convincing face and said,

"I wasn't. Why would I listen in the conversation when he said it was personal." Everyone believed me, except the hybrid. I really need to get rid of her.

"Oh, Malia. Who was that guy you were talking to in the cafeteria?" Banshee asked. That guy is my dinner for tonight I thought, but I answer,

"Oh that guy is Ben. He asked me out saying something about liking me for a long time. I decided to try to give him a chance since I'm single again."

"Okay, are you going out with him tonight?" She asked again. I nodded as an answered.

"What about your mate?" the hybrid asked. Her and mates. I don't believe in such things as mates.

"Well, I can't wait for him to come to me. I will go find him myself. What if he is a human?" I answered her. Everyone nodded in agreement with me, even the hybrid, which is a first.

Back in the clinic

"What did you want to ask me?" Deaton asked Scott once everyone went out of the clinic.

"Well, I've been hearing this strange voice inside my head."

"Strange voice? What do you mean?"

"It's a man's voice. The first time I heard it was when I thought of rejecting my mate. And the second time was during the pack meeting when I asked about what happens when you reject your mate."

"What did he say during those times?"

"The first time, he said, No!, don't even think about doing that!. The second time, he said, Look what you did, you made our mate sad!" Scott explained. Deaton nodded,

"I think I know who that voice is, but what I don't get is why you are hearing it when you were turned into a werewolf. You are only supposed to have that voice inside your head when you are a born werewolf."

"Okay, but what is that voice?"

"Well, that voice is your wolf"

"Wolf? I don't understand."

"Do you remember your mate who is a full cheetah?" Deaton asked. Scott nodded. "In her human form, she talks to her cheetah inside her head. In other words, that voice inside your head is your wolf talking to you."

"Wait, so the human form and the wolf form are totally different people?"

"Yes"

"Okay, how is that I have a wolf form when I wasn't born a werewolf like that Hale pack"

"That I don't know. Let me look in the book to see if I can find answers" Deaton said. He flipped through another book. After a couple of minutes, he stopped at a page. "It says here that if a half-breed werewolf turns into a true alpha, they get the ability to shift into a full wolf."

"So the moment I turned into a true alpha, I could turn in a full wolf. How come I don't turn into a full wolf all these times?"

"Well, it says that this ability surfaces when the true alpha meets their mate, but only their wolf starts talking to them. They get the full ability when they mate with their mate."

"Okay, I only get the ability when I mate"

"Yea"

"Okay, thank you Deaton"

"You're welcome, but before you go, there is something else you should know"

"What"

"Any person that the true alpha turns also get that ability"

"So, Liam has that ability too"

"Yea"

"Okay, I will let him know. Thanks again for your help" Scott said sincerely. Deaton nodded and Scott turned around and went out of the clinic to his pack. When they saw him, Stiles asked,

"Did you get everything figured out?"

"Yea, I did. Let's go to my house to discuss her plan to defeat the Sceetryon (ski-tree-an)" Scott said. Everyone nodded, except for Malia, went to their separate cars, made their way to Scott's house.
