Author: auburnnothenna

Fandom: Teen Wolf
Type: slash, apocafic, dark ending
Word Count: 102,348
Rating: Mature
Characters/Pairings: Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski
Warnings Sexual content, violence, strong language, canon character death, original character death, mass death, horror.
Summary: Four years after season two, after the pack has solidified and are attending school in Southern California, civilization crashes to a halt that kills most modern electronics. Derek orders the rest of the Hale Pack to either wait in LA or return to Beacon Hills, while he heads to Mexico to retrieve Stiles. What should have been a few days' trip turns into an odyssey contending with human horror, natural disasters and a lethal disease that may infect werewolves too. Derek and Stiles are forced into a closer partnership and an honest relationship even while they have to face that there is no promise of safety at their destination. Not for them, not for the Pack, and not for humanity.
No one guessed the domino fall of civilization would end with a howling from the forest when it all crashed to a halt.
Author Notes: betas by eretria, murron, and sian1359, with additional thanks to mecurtin. Please read the tags and contact me if you have any questions about potential triggers. Written for the Teen Wolf Big Bang Round 3.
