( Scott gets a (9), crying out when her hand makes contact with Scott's neck.
Nails out, he tries striking her with his nails, sinking them into her arm. But, from the angle he's at and the pain he didn't anticipate, he drops one knee down. (3) )
[Cora glances between Scott and Stiles, unsure who to help, her alpha or her potential something. But despite Twin 1 dodging him, they seem to be on more even ground, so Cora chooses Scott. She swings towards Twin 2, claws out and ready to strike (16).
Twin 2 swipes around, dodging Cora's strike (20), before drawing more on Scott. She looks up at Cora, eyes glowing and grins. "You really want to do this? Because he may be able to heal, but eventually I'm going to outpace that."
Cora snarls, but it's not her turn anymore.
Twin 1, on the other hand, stays focused on Stiles. Now that he knows what he's dealing with, he reaches up, breaking a branch off one of the trees and flipping it around in his hand. "Eat shit, Fang Boy." And then he'll charge forward and attempt to stab him with his stick (16).]
( Stiles, distracted by Scott's plight and slighted by the sudden insult is stabbed (5) but, not in the heart because of that (16?). But, seeing as it is Stiles turn, he tries to play through the pain to break Twin 1's arm: (4) to grab on. But, for a new vampire, pain during combat is exponentially worse, coupling it with worry for his best friend.
Scott is not doing much better, trying to claw and swipe at Twin 2 across the torso (16).
Scott gets a (10) to do anything with a text message he can't answer and Stiles a (17) for a bonus phone-related action - but WHY - so, he most certainly notices the vibration of a text, but will not be doing anything about it. )
[Twin one just barely manages to dodge that grasp, annoyed that he missed the heart (6). He pulls back to try and charge in again (11), but as he does, Cora tips her head back and howls, and he falters at the sound.
Is it the most productive way to call for help? Maybe not. But Lydia will know what it means, and that's the best they can hope for. And after that, Cora's going to turn and dig in to the one attacking Stiles (15 vs. 6) and the Twin 1 cries out in pain.
Twin 2 also cries out as Scott's claws dig in, twisting away from the alpha's claws (4). She almost loses her grip, but attempts to swing back at him again (14).]
[Twin 1 loses his stake, but he recovers enough to backhand the vampire as a result (20). Cora comes at him again, but he's ready for her, shoving her backwards and sending her flying into a nearby tree (1).
Twin 2 stumbles backwards, dirt in her face and swings blindly (3), completely missing Scott.
And is wide open for a certain vampire to take a shot if he wants.]
( Stiles vamps over, trying to sweep twin 2's feet out from under her (12). He hasn't gone to the Mystic Falls vampire school of combat so he doesn't think about outright murdering her, twisting her neck or, anything like that.
Scott falls back, putting some distance between him and twin 2 as he focuses on healing. )
[She winces as she pushes up, but she's clearly still winded. Twin 1 goes down, but he reaches over to grab at Stiles' ankles, trying to yank him down (20).
Twin 2 starts to charge in, claws lashing out to try and keep Scott on the defensive (19).]
( Twin 1 succeeds (19), halting all of Stiles momentum as he hits the ground.
Twin 2 keeps Scott on the defensive as he brings his arms up (13). Blood sprays from the scratches.
Stiles forcefully tries to shake his leg free before trying to kick twin 1 in the head (10) and Scott attempts to parkour over twin 2 but, she's far too inside his personal space (2) and he takes her with him, the both of them falling forward (him)/backward (her). )
[Twin 1 takes the kick in the head and loses his grip on Stiles' ankle (2). He's dazed and tries to shake it off, before pushing himself up and charging towards both the vampire and the werewolf he seems to want to protect. He slashes down on Cora (18 vs. 6) and draws blood.
Cora comes up snarling and does her best to slash back (15 vs. 3). Blood sprays from his face and he stumbles back with a scream.
Twin 2 goes down, but she just barely manages to roll out from under him and stay clear (8). Then she tries to slash at Scott again (11), trying to stay on top of him and not give him room to breathe.]
Stiles runs, attempting to swipe the stake up in his hand (10), before rearing it back and trying to stab Twin 1 in the back (6).
Damon arrives, focusing on Twin 2 ontop of Scott, (11) to break her neck, and as Damon has in the past, he jumps right to murder. She goes limp ontop of Scott.
Bloody arm in front of him, Scott tries to pull himself out from under her. (17). )
[Twin 1 hears the snap of his sister's neck, and he turns to face Damon with an angry snarl. He starts to charge towards the vampire, but Stiles stab catches him in the ribs (5), and he cries out in pain instead, his attack diverted to the younger vampire as a result (4).
Cora again seizes an opportunity and slashes down into the lamprey's back (14 vs. 10). The second blow is too much and the creature drops to his knees, having taken too many shots in a quick succession.]
( Growing up meant Scott had been more used to death being an inevitable result, but it always hits his compassionate side hard. That was someone's daughter, even if she killed Ivan - and tried to kill him.
Twin 1 relents and Stiles' rage subsides, his heartbeat returning to normal as he heaves in breaths he doesn't need to be taken.
[Cora also attempts to catch her breath, looking over both her friends to make sure they're actually okay. She glances over to Damon, before giving him a small nod in return.]
( He doesn't know if the siblings were trying for a new start, or on the run. They don't know anything. )
You went after friends of my friends. Not Ivan Russion-last-name. But.
("Was it an accident?" Stiles asks, meaning before, meaning Ivan.
Scott gets a (17) to properly recover from being almost drained into unconsciousness, so, he's finally able to move, joining the group. He checks in on Cora, are you okay Cora? )
[Cora is fine. She gives Scott a nod that she's okay. She's healing. She's also worried about Stiles, seeing the remains of where the stake wound used to be.
Twin 1 looks back at Stiles and snorts. "Does it matter? I know where this is going to end anyway."]
( Stiles bounced back (nat 20) at ignoring all the pain he could be feeling, including the pain of being so vicious when it comes to defending his life.
"Yeah, well. You jumped Cora. Attacked me and Scott. Killed Ivan from Norfolk."
And when it comes to what happens next, it might be complicated considering what this kid is. )
Cora doesn't bother to confirm. The smell of death isn't strong, given how recent it is, but it's there, starting to cloy in the air. But what she does pick up on is the sound of footsteps approaching (20) as the Winchesters join the party.
Sam glances over the scene, and then frowns back at the group. "Everyone okay?"]
["I haven't confessed to shit." Twin 1 speaks up, glaring down at them. "They're all working on fucking assumptions."
Cora turns back on him with a glare.]
You attacked us first.
["Yeah, because that's fucking Scott McCall." He may not know Damon from anyone (7), but he knows the true alpha of Beacon Hills (16). "Do you know how many people have walked into his territory and haven't walked back out again?"
He looks back at the Winchesters because while he doesn't really know the Winchesters either, he can tell a hunter when he sees one (11). "You want to put someone on your hit list, it should be him, not us."]
