Who Did This?!
It was midnight and Isabelle was in her room listening to music as she was looking down at a blank paper finding it hard to think about something to draw. She had so many things running through her mind. One being how her aunt, uncle and big brother were doing. They haven't called and she was worried.
She was also worried about her father, who had left an hour ago and hasn't been back since. She knew her father could handle himself, but that doesn't mean she doesn't worry.
Speaking of Derek, he just came into the house with a sad, heartbroken look on his face. He throws his keys down on the little table near the couch and takes his leather jacket off before walking upstairs to his daughters room.
Derek gets to the outside of her room, her door was open. He sighs before walking in, but knocks letting her know he was going in.
Izzy looks up and a smile instantly was put on her face. " Dad!" She waves.
Derek smiles slightly as he walks in looking down at his feet as he does. He sits down next to Izzy on her bed.
" What's wrong?" Izzy questions.
" How do you know something is wrong?" Derek asks curiously.
Izzy smirks. " You have that 'I have to tell you something, but don't know how to say it' face." Of course she was correct. Derek knew Isabelle could read him like a book.
Derek nods and clears his throat. " I-I don't know where to begin."
Izzy looks at him weirdly and gives an awkward laugh. " Dad, you're scaring me. What's wrong?"
Derek takes her hands in his gently and looks up at her. " I-I f-found Aunt Laura."
Izzy sits up a bit taking her headphone out her ears. " Okay? Where is she? Is she here?"
" Izzy, baby." Derek sighs looking into her eyes trying to stop his own tears from coming out. Izzy heart drops knowing what he was gonna say. " Sh-She's dead."
That's when it all came crumbling down, but she couldn't believe it. " N-No, she's not. She can't be!" The house started to shake slightly.
" I'm sorry, sweetheart. I wish I could've protected her." Derek pulls his daughter into a hug.
Izzy sobs into his shoulder. " Da-d I-I have to see her. I need to her, dad. Please." She begs.
" Iz, I-I can't let you see that." Derek shakes his head.
" PLEASE DAD! I HAVE TO! I really need to see her." Izzy cries, her voice breaking in the middle of her sentence.
" It's only half of her body!" Derek exclaims with tears running down his face.
" I don't care! Dad, I need to see her!" Izzy says before running out the room leaving Derek to chase after her.
Izzy runs to the bottom of the stairs and runs outside leaving the front door to bang against the wall. She ignores her father's calls and runs out. She stops when she sees half a body...the top to be exact.
Isabelle runs to her aunts pale body. There was no color left. She was almost unrecognizable... Izzy drops to her knees next to the body. She places her hands on her mouth and starts to sob into them, even harder than before. " Oh my god."
Izzy didn't have to turn to know her father was behind her. His loud footsteps made it clear on who he was along with her ability to sense who was who...part of her magic.
" Who did this?" Izzy questions as she cries. She didn't even turn to look at her father, her eyes still on her aunt's dead body.
Derek didn't answer. He didn't know what to say because he didn't know the answer to the question. The question he had been thinking about since he saw his sister's dead half body.
" D-ad, wh-o d-did this?" Izzy sobs harder.
Derek releases a breath. " I don't know, princess. But I promise I will find out and when I do, you'll be the first to know."
" Why, dad! Why would they do this! She didn't deserve to die like this. She didn't deserve to die at all! I-I miss her dad. I already miss her so much!" Izzy cries out loud finally turning to Derek who drops down to his knees next to her and pulls her into his chest, holding her tightly.
" I'm so sorry baby, I got you. I got you." Derek kisses his daughters forehead silently crying.
" I'm sorry, dad. She was your sister and she meant so much to you." Izzy speaks through her cries.
" Shhh, let's just try and relax." Derek runs a soothing hair through his daughter's hair.

" Let's go! Gather round!" Coach tells the players as Izzy gets there. " Okay, you know how this goes. If you don't make the cut, your most likely sitting on the bench for the rest of the season. You make the cut, you play. Your parents are proud. Your girlfriend or boyfriend loves you." Coach points to a member on the team making them roll their eyes. " Everything else is, uh, cream cheese."
" Cream cheese?" Jackson who was next to her mutters raising an eyebrow. He was really trying to cheer Izzy up. He could tell she was hurting.
" Cream cheese!" Coach repeats loudly. " Now, get out there and show me what you got! Come on!" Izzy was the first to start getting hyped and the team follows in pursuit. She wasn't really getting hyped...she was trying to release both anger and stress.
Scott who was on the field and Stiles who was on the bench watches as Izzy was passed the ball. She runs with it stepping left causing the person defending her to follow.
Isabelle then quickly turns right making the guy fall. She continues to run as she looks around seeing if anyone was open, but they weren't. So she fakes a pass to Jackson making them all look towards the boy who only smirked. They quickly looked back, two of them running toward her. Izzy jumps almost gliding as she twirls in the air making them fall.
Everyone watches Izzy who in mid-air launched the ball, right when she landed it went into the goal. Izzy felt a serge of power flow through her. She looks down at her hands and sees red mist. She takes a breath trying to calm herself. Once she thinks she was calm enough she looked down at her hands and noticed her mist was away.
Around her everyone was shouting and cheering. Isabelle looks to Lydia who was screaming the loudest. She then looks to the bench seeing Stiles on his feet cheering loudly for her. She sends him a nod with a very small smile before going back over to the others.
A couple minutes later and Isabelle is starting with the ball. She quickly searched her field and caught the look of Scott wide open. She was so gonna regret it, but she shrugs throwing it to him. She watches as she freezes before he takes off running. He runs dodges one player before getting hit to the ground. Izzy winces and flinches at the thud.
Isabelle looks to the person who hit him...and of course it was Jackson.
Izzy's eyes glow and she lets out a growl...She runs to Jackson pulling him away from her brother. Jackson turns around ready to go off, but instantly stops and tenses seeing Izzy. " Back off, Jack. Leave him be." Izzy snaps helping Scott up.

Jackson and Izzy are now going head to head. They glance at each other and once she hears the whistle blow Izzy who was still looking at him grabs the ball and takes off dodging whoever came in her way.
Two once again ended coming at her, making her swiftly jump up and over them, she landed and spotted Scott from across the field. He nods and she nods back before launching as hard as she could to him, which went across the sky at a extremely fast pace. It lands in his net before he takes off.
Scott starts dodging whoever came at him and switches the stick in his hand as he does cool little turns to dodge them, making his way closer to the goal. Scott runs and three people start coming at him. Izzy watches as Scott keeps running jumping over them smoothly before throwing the ball in the net making an amazing goal.
" McCall! Hale! Get over here." Coach calls to them both.
Izzy nods and looks to Scott, they run to him as they took off their helmets. " What in God's name was that?"
Izzy and Scott share a confused look before looking back to Coach. " I don't know. We were just trying to make the shot and win." Scott answered.
" Yeah," Izzy adds.
" Yeah, and you both did the beautifully. Now guess what?" Coach smiles.
" What?" Isabelle questions confused.
" Your both starting." Coach slaps Scott on his shoulder. Scott's eyes widened as Izzy for the first time today just smiles happily, she felt pride in herself, that she could do that after what she went through and still is going through.
" You both made first line." The crowd cheers for the two. As Scott and Izzy share a smile.
" Thank you coach." Izzy said thanks with a small smile and nod before she starts walking away.
" Hey, Hale!" Coach calls her.
Izzy stops and turns to him. " Yeah, coach?"
" How would you like to be captain?" Coach suggests with a smirk. Everyone around them cheering and telling her to say yes.
" Coach, I-I can't. That's Jackson's job. I can't take that from him." Izzy shakes her head she then feels a hand in her shoulder and she looks to see Jackson.
" You should do it. If anyone is gonna be captain and it isn't me, at least it's you. My sister." Jackson sends her a comforting smile and squeezes her shoulder.
Izzy nods with a smile and turns to coach and nods. " I'll be the captain, sir."
Coach smiles brightly and cheers along with everyone in the crowd and team. Izzy put on a fake smile.
