Biography

Early Life

Young Derek, Rowan, and his brother in the aftermath of the Ultima attack on Bright Port.

When Derek was just a child at Bright Port, an entity named Michael plotted the murder of Derek's family, starting with killing his mother. This caused Derek's father to go on a blind rampage as a giant unstoppable wolf beast – The Ultima. With many innocent people being killed by the beast, the Guardian Forces eventually got involved and deemed Derek's father the murderer of his family. Toby's grandfather ended up slaying the beast, but died in the process. With Derek and his younger brother alone and orphaned, Rowan, an old friend of Derek's father, fulfilled his promise to take care of the Lycan family if anything were to happen to him. It's unknown what happened to Derek's brother.

At an unknown point in his childhood, Derek accidentally showed his Ultima eyes to one of his friends, accidentally causing their death. This caused him to be traumatized as he isolated himself from others to prevent the same mistake from happening again. He even kept a distance from Rachel before eventually marrying her. Derek made good friends with Garte in college.

Rachel had Aaron a few years after having Melissa. Since Derek is forced to bear the Ultima curse down his son, he wanted to make sure he didn't do the same mistake he made. He didn't want Aaron to interact with humans, so he introduced him to werewolf kids. Despite even giving Aaron a toy to help him get used to werewolves, but didn't go so well. He then decided to adopt a puppy named Alexander for Aaron, hoping it would fill the gap.

Derek would raise Aaron in a way that directed his anger and outbursts towards him instead of others. Derek was aware and guilty of his own unfairness and abuse, but deemed it the only way he could protect his son from the world as it was the curse he bore.

Derek in the midst of the Forever Potion Experiments.

After meeting Michael, Garte and Derek were introduced to Zack and Elizabeth, who were witchcraft doctors who wanted to make the world a better place, and they all became close friends. Michael was the one who had an interest in emeralds to help the cause, which was bountiful in caverns underneath a lodge. At the time however, Derek had no idea that Michael was the one who took away his family. Derek and Garte brought their families to the lodge for a vacation and later bought the lodge for the group to use. When Michael concocted the first few forever potions, he convinced everyone but Derek to use them on their kids. With the potions being a success, they were introduced to the public.

Derek soon realized that the people who were buying the potions were nothing but thugs, criminals, and killers with big bank accounts who wanted to do horrible things, ultimately realizing what they were doing was wrong. It wasn't until people were actually dying from the potions being sold that Garte realized this as well. He confronted Michael about this, only for Michael to consider Garte's words as an act of treason. With that, Michael, Zack and Elizabeth decided to get rid of Garte as Michael opened a portal to his own realm. The plan backfired when the Aphmau from Minecraft Diaries intervened and guided Derek to get the three sucked into the portal instead. With them gone, Derek and Garte shutdown the business and disposed of every last forever potion. Derek and Garte stole the accumulated wealth of Zack, Elizabeth, and Michael from their business and used the money to start their own companies.

Now being the head of a big company, both he and Rachel weren't around to be with their kids and they easily got distracted by work. When walking Alexander, Derek let him run away when he was distracted by his phone. This was the start of Aaron's trauma as he got very upset that Derek lost the only friend he was allowed to have. Because of Aaron's behavioral issues and Derek's own trauma, Derek raised Aaron like a prisoner – putting him under constant surveillance and strict rules. He further enforced Aaron to not have social interaction with anyone and started to perform extreme cautions and spare no expense to ensure Aaron never hurts anybody.

Phoenix Drop High

Season 1

Because he couldn’t trust Aaron in public schools and he had no free time to have him home-schooled, Derek sent Aaron to a military academy for an unknown number of years. Aaron's time there obviously had a negative and traumatic impact on himself as his personality shifted to be more aggressive and antisocial. It was only when Derek could confirm that Aaron would not socialize that he made a deal with Aaron so he can spend his last grade at a regular school. When he noticed Aaron was socializing, he threatened to send him back to military school, saying that they had a deal that he would not socialize. He eventually caused Aaron's eyes to go red, but took this as an advantage and said that Aaron was unstable. In reality, it was Derek alone that was triggering Aaron's eyes to turn red. He later kept him away from social activity during the summer and barely allowed him to go to college.

Season 2

Even when Aaron moved on to college, Derek treated him as if he still lived under his roof and hired people to keep him on probation 24/7, both in person and on his phone, all without evidence of guardianship. The people he hired don't even treat Aaron as a person since they call him "it". They are loyal to Derek's wishes however and will make sure that Aaron stays away from any social interaction. They will report every action Aaron takes straight to Derek so he can enforce discipline if Aaron does something Derek doesn't like with or without telling Aaron. Derek also made sure that Aaron lived alone in his dorm, having the floor he was on off limits to anyone else. He would especially enforce discipline if Aaron ended up being close to someone and made sure that he would be restrained from that person entirely. This indeed happened when Derek realized that Aaron was socializing with a specific girl during senior year of high school.

When Aaron sneaked into his parent's house during spring break, Rachel caught him and brought him to Derek, who was wondering why he's home when he said he was going to stay on campus. When he said he wanted to meet someone, Derek brought up the fact that Aaron brought a girl to the prom with him. With Aaron in shock that he knew, Derek explained that they had eyes everywhere, showing that he never trusted Aaron to be out of his sight even during high school. Derek shouted that he should have never taken Aaron out of military school and that he knew Aaron would start socializing or even bond with someone. He then said that it would satisfy him if they both forgot each other existed and sent Aaron to his room, saying he'll be brought back to campus tomorrow. A few days later, Derek was given a report on Aaron's phone with him texting someone constantly. Derek said that they will take action if it's the same girl Aaron brought to prom.

When Derek heard that Aaron broke out of his dorm, he had him supposedly abducted and brought to him. He had chosen to ignore the fact that Aaron's actions had selfless intentions and instead saw it as a way for Aaron to get close to Aphmau. The same day, he even destroyed Aaron's phone after seeing him texting Aphmau. Aaron's eyes turned red due to his father's actions as he told his father it was just texting. Derek told him that he knew he was texting Aphmau and then tried to fill his mind with lies by saying Aphmau doesn't love him and she will break his heart. When Aaron said that she was the reason he had a heart to begin with, Derek once again told Aaron that Aphmau doesn't love her. Aaron stormed to his room saying that he loves her, and he always will. Derek followed him saying that Aaron doesn't even know what love is, with Aaron reminding him that he didn't have to break his phone to get Aphmau out of his life. After Derek said he was trying to protect Aaron and this was the thanks he got, he once again scolded Aaron for going back to the school "for a girl" and even called him a monster and that everyone will see him that way. Continuing, he said that there are things in this world that Aaron can't understand. When Aaron tried knocking sense to him by saying he'll never know if Derek keeps it a secret from him, Derek decided to conclude the conversation by telling Aaron that he will be sent back to campus tomorrow. He won't be getting his phone back and his probation will increase tenfold with his internet time being limited and supervised as well. He agreed when Aaron said it wasn't fair, but he told him that the consequences will be much worse if he ever talked to Aphmau, telling him that he will make sure they never see each other again.

Graduation Days

For the next few years, Derek's rules started backfiring as Aaron became more untamed because of them. Along with that, Derek continued to slowly take away Aaron's rights just for attempts to talk to people, eventually banning Aaron from all social media in general. He also may have disciplined Aaron for taking part in group projects despite it being assigned to him. This caused Aaron to be socially awkward and start getting bad grades, with there even being a rumor that he had to redo a year. It is not known what Derek said to Aaron when he was caught with his eyes exposed, albeit tamed. He may have reminded Aaron of the dangers and what ifs of what transpired and took more privileges away.

Falcon Claw University

During the start of next year, it is shown that Derek now hired agents to guard his dorm directly. The floor was sabotaged to make it look like it was under repair for those who trespass. Aaron was now under house arrest in his dorm, being only allowed to leave for classes. Derek also somehow learned that the game Aaron was playing allowed him to socialize. Not wanting to have his last privilege taken away, Aaron cleared his friend list to make it seem like he played alone. One of the agents said that they should take the game away anyway, but Derek said it was fine as long as he doesn't socialize. He did however say that this was all that Aaron was going to get as he reminded him that he's still banned from social media and not allowed to get a phone.

Derek later realized that Aaron was spending more of his allowance than usual. With this, he barged into Aaron's room while he was in class and began searching for clues. Rowan, then known as Agent R, walked into the room and questioned why Derek was invading Aaron's privacy, with Derek explaining the situation. Secretly protective of Aaron and wanting him to have a social life, Agent R said that he had been supervising Aaron 24/7 and make sure he was on lockdown while also saying that Aaron was just eating more expensive food at the café. Even so, Derek decided to kangaroo court the situation and remove Aaron's funds entirely. Agent R denied this, saying that what Aaron was doing was making him calmer while also helping his grades. Derek rebelled by saying he isn't paying Agent R to care for Aaron or make him happy. Finding nothing, Derek was then about to leave when he noticed a receipt for Galaxy Wars. With that, he logged into Aaron's bank account and cancelled his credit card, all while still having an angry look on his face. He then thought back on what Agent R said about him supervising Aaron. Now thinking that just taking away Aaron's credit card was too merciful, he now believed that he should put Aaron in his place as a monster. With that, he hired a new agent named Xavier to monitor Aaron even further. It is not known if he told Xavier to lie to Aaron about being a childhood friend or allowed him to attack Aaron while he was doing a group project with Jenny.

He is later seen waiting for Aaron in his dorm, having already been given reports by Xavier. When Aaron arrived, Derek asked where he had been. Aaron replied that he was doing a group project with a friend. Derek asked if it was a girl, with Aaron saying yes. He then asked for her name, saying that Aaron's life was his business when Aaron questioned him. Like any parent, Derek's excuse was that he was Aaron's father. Aaron denied that being an excuse, however. Derek then informed Aaron that he cancelled his credit card. He said that he got back a statement saying that Aaron was spending a lot of money on things. Even though he knew what he was spending it on, Derek questioned what Aaron was spending his money on. Hearing Aaron just say food and coffee made Derek question Aaron spending $300 on just that. Aaron then said that he would appreciate it if Derek left.

Not leaving, he accused Aaron of lying to his father. Aaron rebelled saying that if he had a good father to begin with, he wouldn't have to lie. Derek started getting angry and told Aaron to watch his mouth. Being serious, Aaron said that his dad treated him like a prisoner. When he said he was a grown man, Derek interrupted his sentence to add "who was born with a curse." Aaron was not like any other child and Derek was trying to take responsibility for that. When Aaron again told his father to get out, Derek decided to put Aaron's college tuition on the line. It wasn't fair to Aaron, but it was a deal to Derek. Sending Aaron to college wasn't an option originally for Derek, but he can easily take it away.

Xavier decided to reveal himself and mock Aaron for the tough life he has and that he should listen to his father. Derek said that Xavier told him that he saw Aaron with the girl earlier. Bringing back him not wanting Aaron to be near Aphmau, he asked if the girl had black hair, but Xavier said it was bleached blonde, with Derek saying perfect. And with that, Derek introduced Xavier as his new agent. Xavier said that he and Aaron were going to be "best buds" and the story he told to Aaron about being childhood friends was all a lie. He didn't want to blow his cover. Derek said that Xavier will be here to make sure that Aaron doesn't accidentally kill someone, showing that he still shows no trust in Aaron’s behavior. Derek then reminded Aaron about his tuition and left. Xavier said that he can't wait to find out who Aaron's friend are and that he'll be watching him. He then mockingly tossed Aaron his bandana, telling Aaron to "be himself" and go back to the way he was. It later turned out that Xavier wasn't really loyal to Derek and was planning to expose Aaron as an Ultima against Derek's wishes.

Derek later started to get mixed reports. Other agents said that Aaron was socializing, but Agent R and Xavier reported the opposite. He went to campus without alerting his agents and confronted Aaron. He knew that Aaron was still talking to people, and without his bandana on. He thought taking away all his privileges would put Aaron in his place and is baffled that it wasn’t the case. He told Aaron to put himself together and have no friends or there will be drastic consequences. He pretended to leave campus and sneaked back into Aaron’s dorm, where he caught Agent R allowing Aaron to have a social life and allowed him to leave without his bandana. He fired Agent R on the spot just as Aaron left. He commented that Agent R’s reports didn’t match up with other agents and that he even just witnessed Agent R doing the exact opposite of what he was instructed to do. Agent R was then forced to leave campus.

He later had agents search Xavier's dorm, most likely to see why he too reported the opposite of other agents. Xavier arrived a little later then the agents, but by the time he got to his dorm, the agents already found evidence about him trying to expose the Ultima. Derek then confronted him, saying that he hired him to keep an eye on his son, only for Xavier to try and expose him as "something he's not." He then had his agents escort Xavier off campus. One agent came to Derek, claiming to have found documentation of Aaron's recent actions, but also questioned how they would keep an eye on him without Xavier or Agent R. Derek decided to take matters into his own hands and headed back to Aaron’s dorm to confront his son one last time, but not before getting a call from the dean.

When Aaron entered his dorm, Derek was there as he questioned where he was. Aaron said he thought Derek left and Derek repeated his question. Aaron said he was in class, with Derek then claiming he knows what Aaron's been up to under the eyes of Xavier and Agent R. He got a call from the dean about a problem a girl started involving Aaron. He criticizes that Aaron is drawing too much attention, with Aaron realizing that it puts Derek in a situation to look bad. With that, Derek is now putting Aaron on extreme lockdown with no privileges of going out for anything, possibly even classes. Aaron tries to talk, but Derek says it's that or he will remove Aaron's funding to even go to this school. With even a word triggering Derek at this point, he threatened to remove Aaron from his entire inheritance and permanently leave him bankrupt. In his words Aaron needed to be controlled and have someone to watch him, and Aaron points out that it’s because his father is not going to be the one who does it.

Aaron admitted that he had someone who watched over him, Agent R. After a light chuckle, Derek informed Aaron that he already fired Agent R. He saw Agent R as a terrible caretaker since he was letting Aaron run wild, thus Derek states that Aaron doesn't need someone like Agent R watching over him. Now having his only saving grace taken away by his father, Aaron finally snapped. He was done being under his father's control. When Derek was about to punish Aaron for storming off, he told Derek to keep his money. He doesn't need it or him. He was tired of being caged up and being under his father's control. He was old enough to make his own decisions and he decided he wanted nothing to do with Derek or his family. He'd make his own way for himself. Derek could only furiously stare at Aaron in disgust as he walked away, showing no remorse for his own actions against his son. It is unclear what happened between Aaron and Derek after that fight, but two years later, Aaron was seen to have long escaped the clutches and supervision of his father, which in turn allowed him to socialize and become more tamed, but he still wore his bandana over his eyes. By that time, he was moving into a new apartment and had gotten a new phone from Aphmau as well as his old stuff from college.

MyStreet: Lover's Lane (Season 3)

It is later revealed that Derek had Aaron's life planned out from his childhood as if he had no free will, literally banning Aaron from having a life of his own to begin with. Derek planned to get Aaron involved in the family business to both benefit his company and permanently remove socialization from Aaron's life. In the past, he wouldn't even let Aaron call him dad, instead forcing him to call him sir and furiously questioning him if he didn't. When Melissa eventually found Aaron, they were able to get him back and make him fulfill his role in the family business after Ivan unintentionally framed him for sabotaging Aphmau's maid café. This was justified to the extreme in MyStreet Season 6 as Michael toyed with Aaron's emotions to make him a tool for total global domination.

Aaron was convinced that his parents changed, but that wasn't the case. He noticed that Derek was still too busy with work to even be home for a minute. Rachel also kept his phone behind his back after seeing a text from Aphmau saying that she missed him. She lied to her son about seeing his phone as he desperately looked for it. She also went as far as to blocking Aphmau to make her think Aaron broke up with her and even deleted every photo of her after hearing that Aaron didn't want to lose them. When Rachel dropped his phone in front of him and he saw what she did with it, Rachel told him that he had a big life ahead of him and that he shouldn't be wasting it on "some girl," only leaving out the Ultima curse because Sylvanna and Zianna were in the same room as them. Feeling betrayed and abused for the last time, Aaron left to be with Aphmau again.

MyStreet Holiday Special

During the holiday season, Derek was invited by Aphmau to spend time with both their families. He assumed Aphmau was Aaron's wife and most likely thought she was a werewolf hiding her ears and tail. He didn't say it out loud however since he didn't know if she knew about Aaron being an Ultima. He was convinced by Aphmau to take a break from work and spread some holiday magic. He also told her at least one memory of him traumatizing Aaron; letting Alexander run away. On Christmas Day, as if it were a miracle, Alexander arrived from the front door, restoring a part of Aaron's life.

MyStreet: Emerald Secret (Season 4)

Around the beginning of next year, Levin came to Derek's front door and told him that he now owned the lodge that he brought his family to many years ago. When he heard that Garte was told the same thing by Malachi, the two fought over who owned the property, only to be told that they actually shared it. Wanting to get the lodge running, he hired Aaron to do an inspection while Garte hired Garroth. However, he hid the fact that there was no internet since he thought that would convince them to not go, instead having them read a note about it at the lodge itself. Derek later questioned why Aaron was easily accepting to take the job. Melissa then told him that Aaron was planning to get enough money to go to Starlight so that he could propose to Aphmau there. His brain snapped as he remembered that he can't let Aaron get into any relationship, especially with Aphmau, with his company originally clouding him of that thought. Before he made any moves, he was reminded by both Melissa and Rachel that Aaron was an adult and he was allowed to make these decisions.

Derek had to rush to the lodge after Aaron was severely injured and stuck in a coma and hired doctors to give him blood to help him survive. In order to keep everyone safe, he had banned any humans, including Aphmau, from seeing him. Sylvanna however barged into the room and demanded to let Aphmau see Aaron. Aphmau told her mom that Aaron needed rest, with her voice causing Aaron’s eyes to turn normal. Rachel told Derek to look, and as he saw in disbelief on what just happened, he looked back at what he did throughout Aaron's life in guilt, especially when he broke Aaron's phone for texting Aphmau. Instead of helping Aaron, everything he did only caused Aaron more suffering as he punished him for finding a coping mechanism. After realizing his mistakes, he asked everyone but Aphmau to leave the room. Being alone, he told Aphmau that he wanted to protect people from Aaron. Since Aaron felt close to Aphmau, he kept him separated from her, but this caused Aaron to keep wanting to be with her more. Derek himself was oblivious until now that Aphmau actually kept Aaron calm and his Ultima eyes at bay. He then told her that Aaron got the job at the lodge just so he could bring her to Starlight Wonderland. When he asked how much Aaron meant to her, she said that Aaron was her entire world and she would never let him go. He then promised to her that after the two recover from the tragedy for a year, they will meet again.

MyStreet: Starlight (Season 5)

At Starlight, Derek had adopted a new last name "Wolfwere" since everyone on the mainland knew him as a human and at Starlight, he can be a werewolf. However, he found out an old enemy of his, Zack, had found a job at Starlight and immediately called Garte to come to the resort. There he explains that Zack had been broken free by Michael and the two along with Elizabeth are planning to do something that may involve Forever Potions on the kids since he knows Garroth and Katelyn and possibly even Travis was experimented on by Michael, and felt stupid for telling him the story of the Ultima that caused Aaron and Aphmau to suffer since Michael may have told Ein the story about the Ultima, and since he knows the tragedy Aaron suffered through, he decided to meet Zack himself while thinking of an escape plan to get out of Starlight before Aaron and Aphmau relive the trauma again.

There, he confronted him about trying to not leave them alone. Zack explains that the two used to sell Forever Potions until Derek stopped, realizing that they don't save people but enslave people instead. Zack blames Rachel and Melissa, who were nearby, for softening his heart. Derek once again asked Zack why he was on Starlight and what plans he had for his family. Zack then showed him an article on the newspaper where his Ultima nature has been revealed to the public, possibly thanks to Michi and Ein, shocking him.

Derek is then talking to Garte on the phone when Melissa walks in. Melissa insists on him explaining what’s going on as he muttered the word “Ultima”. Derek had to explain how he used to make Forever Potions with Garte, Elizabeth, Zack and a mysterious man known as Michael, until he had a change of heart and disagree with the experiment and leaves the research to waste as he leaves with Rachel, banishing Zack, Elizabeth, and Michael in a pocket, jail-like dimension.

Besides that, Derek noticed that his pancakes kept going missing and he blamed it on a pancake ghost. Eventually, a plate of pancakes showed up with an apology letter next to it. He and Rachel now assumed it was Zane since he liked sweets. Upon tasting the pancakes and being amazed by them, he barged into Zane's room to ask if he made the pancakes, only to discover that Kawaii~Chan was with him. After Zane admitted that he brought KC to Starlight and told her about what happened at the lodge, Derek allowed her to stay and even decided to buy her a ticket on the condition that she didn't tell anyone else about Aaron's secret and that she'd make more pancakes.

Derek, Melissa and Rachel were with Aphmau and the gang when they noticed Aaron had his Ultima eyes out, due to seeing Ein. Derek tried to calm him down before he goes out an unleashes his vengeance on him. Aaron refused because he saw Ein and managed to push Derek back. Garroth tried to stop him, but he ended up seeing Aaron’s eyes and collapse in pain on the ground. Derek then notices Aphmau looking into Aaron's eyes as she tried to calm him down, showing no reaction of pain. With Aaron calmed down, Derek furiously demanded what caused him to go berserk. When Aaron told him that it was the same person who tried to harm his fiancée, Derek realized in shock that he proposed. Everyone panics when Garroth starts screaming in agony as his struggle between life and death begins. They go back to the house and Derek call Daniel’s mom to deal with Garroth, but not before Derek tells Aphmau and Aaron that they are going to have a talk.

Back at the house, Derek isn't concerned about Garroth right now and tells Aaron to pray that he'll live after what he put him through, demanding to know what he did to Aphmau. Aphmau questions him, and Dereks yells at her to not play dumb for his sake. Aaron demands Derek to not yell at her. Derek says that Aaron turned her. He saw her look into Aaron's eyes without flinching and she wouldn't be standing right now if she weren't a werewolf. Aphmau pokes out her ears and tail, revealing that he did indeed turn her and explains it wasn't his fault and that she asked him to turn her as Derek sighs in frustration. Aaron then reveals that he turned Aphmau into a werewolf for the sake of protecting her. Derek was furious with the choice. Her entire anatomy has changed. Doctors may trace her medical records to him since no one just turns into werewolves. Aaron didn't want an accident to happen, with Derek telling him that he should've thought twice about his temper and now Garroth was suffering because of him. Derek declares that he should never have allowed Aaron to have relationships, causing Aaron to bow his head in shame. Rachel walks in with Sylvanna (who sees that Aphmau is a werewolf for the first time) and explains that Aaron isn't a child anymore. She knows what he did, but Derek yelling at him wasn't going to change anything. They should be rejoicing the engagement, but for now, they must decide what actions they must take as Sylvanna asks Aphmau to talk with her in private. Rachel then asks Aaron two questions, being why he turned Aphmau and what caused him to lose his temper.

Aaron, eventually losing control of his eyes over no one believing him (which Rachel points out), explains that he saw Ein, this time, for real, but Derek reminds him that Ein is dead. Aaron talks back by stating that they never found the body. Melissa even calls back on when he attempted to attack a lookalike once. Aaron is still certain he saw him. Having enough, Derek declares that Aaron is too unstable. While Rachel agrees about Aaron's anger, they can't ignore that Aaron might've actually saw something. After asked by Rachel if he saw anyone else, he explains that he also saw a woman with blue hair and bluish green eyes that almost looked like Katelyn. Both Derek and Rachel were shocked as they looked at each other, now knowing that Aaron was telling them the truth.

Deciding to go to the kitchen, Garte came out of nowhere, catching Derek by surprise, and immediately punched Derek into the floor. Garte was furious about Aaron’s action and tells Derek that he was supposed to keep control over "that monster." Derek demands Garte to not call Aaron a monster, but because of Aaron, Garte's own son was on the brink of life and death. Calming down, Derek says that it was an accident and that he's doing everything he can to help, but there was something else. Garte demands to know what was more important than his son dying, with Derek interrupting him by saying that Elizabeth was here, which meant that they were all here. And they had Ein, the boy that knew how to make Forever Potions and tried to kill their kids back at the lodge, bringing Garte into shock as he asked how.

Derek continues that Aaron perfectly described Elizabeth and that he saw the boy with her. He also tells Garte that Zack was here. Garte knew that. He knew that they broke out of the real he and Derek put them in, now questioning why they were at Starlight, but went back and said that he thought Ein was dead. Derek says that they only assumed that after finding nothing but blood trails. Garte then started to question what their plans were, especially since their kids were here. Derek tells Garte to not talk about it since they will be acting on their suspicions and end up provoking them. He didn't want his family in any more trouble than they in right know. Garte agrees since he is aware that the rumors of the Ultima are resurfacing. Derek had made everyone in his family but Aaron aware, for he was the successor to the curse and was going to be impacted the most, so Derek needed to protect him as much as possible. Garte reminds Derek of what Aaron did to his son, but Derek points out that Garroth would be dead already if he was going to die. Garte says that it doesn't excuse Garroth's pain, but Derek continues by asking if his Forever Potion was keeping him alive. Derek knows he's right. Garte doesn't want to remember what they did to their kids, but Derek says that they will always remember since it was part of their past. Garte wanted to believe what they were doing was good, but Derek says that the only good thing that came out of it was the Forever Potion he gave Garroth saving his life. He then asked if the potion was strong enough to get him through this. With a sad expression, Garte said that Garroth and Katelyn were given the strongest potions they had. Zianna then comes down to bring Garte to Garroth, with Derek following him.

When they made it to Garroth's room, the doctor told them that Garroth was lasting much longer than any other human, saying that he wouldn't be dying anytime soon before leaving. Garroth wanted to talk to Aaron, but Garte pushed Aaron away from Garroth and called him a monster again, to which Derek scolded Garte for. After having Garte calm down and letting Aphmau and Aaron talk to Garroth, Derek told the engaged couple that they should give Garroth some space as they went downstairs. Melissa appeared as Aaron was filling himself with guilt and said that she saw that Garroth was alive. Derek reminded Melissa on what Garroth is going through, but she got the word from Daniel's mom that Garroth is stable. Derek confirms this, to which Melissa declares that the dinners plans were back on. Derek questions Melissa's decision, to which she says that she knows how serious the situation is, but if everyone remained in a bad mood, it would only make things worse and that Garroth would want them to not feel guilty. With that, Derek gave Melissa his blessing on the condition that they would rush to Garroth if there was any further word on his condition.

At the dinner party Melissa noticed that everyone was still in a negative mood. Not wanting the last day of vacation be sad and depressing, she circled around the table and tried to cheer everyone up. Derek was still upset about what was happening to Garroth. Melissa tells her father that negative vibes aren't going to make Garroth feel better, giving an example of her being sick and not wanting anyone being mopey around her. Rachel complimented her daughter's words, with Melissa saying that she got her smarts from her. Derek questioned about himself, with Melissa saying that she inherited his looks. Rachel agreed and said that Derek was the handsomest man in the world. As she cheers everyone up at the party, Kawaii~Chan gave him a batch of pancakes. Derek thanked Melissa for the dinner party, saying that everyone needed to let go of their worries, even if it was just for a minute. Melissa admits that she wasn't sure about the idea at first since they could've lost Garroth, but she said that they should move on in spite of their worries. She admitted that she was pushy, but considering everything that happened so far, she didn't want everyone to give into their fear and wanted them to remember that they're stronger than that. Derek admitted that Melissa was right and that she was her mother's daughter. He then asked if he was prettier than Rachel, to which Melissa said yes.

The next day, they were meant to leave, but Michael's group had already put the next phase of their plan in action. Michael had taken back control over Terry's body and had put the entire island on lockdown since he owned Starlight. There were now rumors about the Lycans being at Starlight and the Guardian Forces were being sent to investigate. No one was allowed to leave.

MyStreet: When Angels Fall (Season 6)

In the third trailer, Derek had rehired Rowan and had him retrieve the briefcase from the residence in Falcon Claw, which was now under surveillance by the Guardian Forces.

Derek talked with Aaron, Lucinda and Kim about the situation about the Guardian Forces, a group now led by Michael to hunt them down. They have already taken over the beach coast of Starlight and are systematically moving inwards towards the boardwalk. It was now only a matter of time before they found the hotel they were staying in. Lucinda suggested to just steal a boat and leave, but Derek mentioned the blockade. Aaron then suggests going back to a place that they had already searched, but after a long thought, Derek denies the plan and that they will stick to moving inland. Aaron tried to defend his idea since they'll eventually have no other place to relocate to, but then Derek accidentally yells at him. Saddened, Aaron decides to stick with Derek's plan. Once they were done talking, Zane comes in and asks where Garroth was. Derek mentions that he should've been here by now. Kim decided to take Garroth's shift for now and Derek dismissed the meeting. He is later relieved that Garroth brought Rowan to the hotel with the briefcase. Aaron then walks in and sees Rowan, with the latter mentioning that it's been a while.

Derek opens the briefcase to look at the realm breaker, mentioning that he'd never thought he'd had to use it again. MCD Aphmau contacts him through inaudible whispering and Derek tells her that she said that they were done when they sealed him away the first time and that he couldn't escape. MCD Aphmau ensured that it would work this time, with Derek hoping she was right since he was trusting his family's lives on her plan. Derek then watches Michael on TV, with the demon stating that he had detained the guests on the island for their own safety and that they will hunt down the beast. Derek turns off the TV and MCD Aphmau contacts him again. Derek comments on Michael’s actions being a trap and asks Irene how long they could keep running since they wanted an Ultima. They then come up with a plan involving Derek turning himself in.

Derek later stops Rowan and asks if he could have a word with him. Derek states his plan to turn himself in and accidentally mentions the voice, which he dismisses as nothing. Rowan tells Derek that he can't go since they weren't just going to let everyone else leave. Derek says that it's still a possibility. He's the reason this is all happening, and if he gives Michael what he wants, he could end this peacefully or at least give everyone else an opportunity. The GF were going to ask him where everyone else was and that he planned to tell them that they were all at a house on the boardwalk so that everyone had a chance to escape. Rowan asks about Derek since his family needs him. Derek then takes out the briefcase holding the realm breaker and thanks Rowan for bringing it here. He then hands it to him and tells him to give it to Aaron. He heads to the GF headquarters to turn himself in, unaware that Ein was watching.

When held captive, he is greeted by Michael, who comes into the room without authority. To Derek's horror, Michael brainwashes a GF to let him stay and has him kill another instead of brainwashing both of them. Derek demands to know what Michael did to Terry since he was now in control of Terry's body, with Michael saying that he's "safe". Derek is silent, with Derek mentioning Derek not having anything witty to say nor an apology, then stating that it's been so long. Derek asks Michael how he escaped. Michael thinks it's adorable that Derek thought that he could keep him in that realm forever. A mongrel like him wouldn't be able to pull that alone. Derek comments that Michael is still using his old tricks, to which Michael doesn't argue with the results. He then questions why Michael doesn't use his powers to take control of him or Garte. Michael responds that as powerful as he is, he can't control a cursed soul, for his magic is still imperfect. Derek asks why Michael doesn't just use his potions to fix his stupid problem. Michael tells him that the more Forever Potions one uses, the longer the effects take to settle, with Derek sarcastically replying that it must be tough being him. Changing the subject, Michael informs Derek that it was "smart" to turn himself in. Derek asks if Michael had what he wanted, to which Michael replies that what he has in this room is a man who had failed to protect the world and his family. Derek asks what he meant since he had the Ultima. Michael disagrees. He isn't fooled by Derek. He knows that the Ultima curse was passed down, as it has been for generations, shocking Derek.

A while after Michael leaves, Zack walks in and wakes up Derek. Derek sees that Zack is still Michael's pawn, but Zack says that Derek didn't give him that much of a choice. Derek says that they were both a threat and that he had to do something. Zack accuses Derek of taking everything from him, but Derek says that he did that to himself and that he was a terrible excuse for a father. Zack then tells Derek to look at himself, protecting Aaron in "that hotel,” and now he was here. Derek was horrified that his plan fully backfired as the Guardian Forces were now raiding the hotel, and Zack tells him that they though he'd never leave, hinting that they knew all along where they were at. Melissa was gunned down to near death and Rowan, Garte, and Zianna were arrested. Rachel was also arrested, but she was then executed via firing squad when she was brought outside.

He is not seen again until "Gone." Earlier than that, Aaron watched a TV revealing that Rachel is dead and he is the sole surviving Lycan. However, this was partially false, as Derek and Rowan were held captive in the Celestial Cannon and Melissa was being medically treated under Toby’s orders.

Derek notices Zack walking by his cell. Derek learned that he let Michael kill Aphmau and was disgusted, especially since Zack was her father, but Zack tries to defend himself by saying that it wasn't his choice to kill Aphmau and that it was out of his hands. Derek asks Zack how he will benefit from helping Michael, saying that he will only bring him suffering or even just kill him once he gets what he wants. Zack doesn't care. He says that he'll have everything that he ever wanted and would be set for life, not caring that he would be living in his "perfect future" alone when Derek pointed that out to him. Derek, horrified of the person Zack had become, asks what happened to him. Zack tells him that he realized loved ones only got in the way and that he wanted more in life than a family. Derek admits that Aphmau knew he left, but she still wanted to find him. She wanted him to be there for her big day and that Zack had no idea what he had just done. Zack scolds Derek for it being so easy for him to say, calling back to him and Garte taking all the money they made from the Forever Potions for themselves after trapping him, Elizabeth and Michael in that realm. Despite Derek's efforts to protect his son, he still ended up here as Aaron was to now die because of him alone. Derek told Zack not to do this to Aaron, begging to be taken instead. He reminded Zack that Aphmau was going to marry Aaron and that he made her happy, to which Zack backed away in shock. Derek once again pleaded Zack to not do this. After looking at the floor, Zack looked back at Derek and apologized before leaving.

After Zack leaves, Derek starts to bang his head into the wall until he gives up. He asks Rowan how good he did as a father. Rowan tells him that he was the best father that he had ever had to grace to meet in his lifetime. He did his best with what he had and what life dealt him. He never hesitated to do what he felt best for his family, even if it meant playing the bad guy. Derek was strong, courageous, and he persevered though the worst hardships any man could fare. Rowan then told Derek that the latter's father asked him the exact same thing the night before he died since he was so worried about Derek. He gave up everything to protect Derek and his brother. But Derek said that he died in the end anyway. Rowan stood up and said that Derek's father gave up his life for him. The night the rest of his family was killed, he turned into "that beast" as soon as he found out, and the Guardian Forces thought that it was him that killed them. Rowan doesn't blame Derek's father for what happened, and that he loved his family so much. Derek points out that his father was never there when he needed him, Rowan says that he was always there and that sometimes, a bear needs to sacrifice their own wellbeing in order to protect their children and that Derek should know better than anyone else.

Derek was curious for a few seconds until his pupils shrunk upon a realization. He asked Rowan if his father asked him to watch over him, to which Rowan at first says that he doesn't know what he's talking about. Derek remembers that Rowan was always there for him, even after everyone else left. Rowan confesses that Derek's father didn't want him to grow up alone, so Rowan made a promise to be there for Derek if anything happened to his parents. He tells Derek that his father loved him and that every action he took was to protect him. Derek then realizes that he really has been a bad father for everything he hadn't done. He just wanted to keep his family safe, and now they were all gone. Rowan points out that Aaron is still there and that he needs Derek and to not give up on him, for he had as much potential as he did. Derek disagrees, saying that Aaron had far more potential. Rowan then said that they should do something about it.

Derek and Rowan are brought to the central area of the cannon, in sturdier cuffs and placed on their knees, for Michael want them to witness what will happen. Aaron is brought into the room, in giant wolf form, right under the beam, much to Derek's shock as he wonders in horror what they did to him. Michael appears at the console and explains the purpose and history of the cannon while listing the crimes Irene committed while using it and that he was going to use it to turn Aaron into a relic. Derek begs Michael to take him instead, but Michael again tells him that Derek no longer bared what he needed. He was filled with joy over Aaron's rampage, and that all he had to do was break him down and make sure he had victims to take. Derek then realized that Michael orchestrated Aaron's rampage and was the one who killed his family as a child. He loudly questions if Michael planned this, to which he said yes. He admits to being the reason the Ultima is feared, and he just gave Aaron a reason to kill. His rampage was masterful and now he was in the perfect state to be sacrificed, stating that Aaron would be so easy to control. Derek yells that Aaron will never bow to him, but Michael doesn't need Aaron to bow to him, since he was already so broken. His body would forge a relic like no other, made of pure destruction and chaos, and Michael would use it to break into Irene's realm, kill her slowly, end the cycle of rebirth, and achieve global domination over a dying world. He then told Zack to show his loyalty and hit the button.

Derek begged Zack to not press the button and pleaded Aaron to move (so was MCD Aphmau), but Aaron was dead set on dying, not caring if he won't come back if Michael wins. When Michael pushes Zack aside and activates the cannon, MCD Aphmau erects a forcefield around Aaron to avoid Michael's plan succeeding and calls out to Derek. Derek responds by silently telling Rowan that he will sacrifice himself. Rowan then knocks down a GF, allowing Derek to run towards the beam, push Aaron away, and become a relic himself. MCD Aphmau then teleports Aaron away from the scene. With Derek transformed into a relic instead of Aaron, Michael roars in pure anger, but later decides to use the new relic, stating that the Celestial Cannon had far greater uses than what was shown. He uses the new relic to make the Celestial Cannon rise from the ocean and above Starlight.

In "High Heavens," Michael scolds Derek for ruining years of planning just because he wanted a family and that he now had to do things the hard way. He absorbs him so he can start to return to his original form. Derek resisted at first, but Michael successfully discouraged him into submitting and used him to survive the souls of everyone in Starlight being absorbed into his body, turning him back into the form of the Demon Warlock. Even still, Derek still tried to fight back. During Michael's final defeat, the relic containing Derek's soul was most likely destroyed, killing him in the process. Even if it wasn't, Derek would be unable to turn back since the Celestial Cannon was now at the bottom of the ocean.

Appearance

He usually wears a black suit and a red tie and his hair is black and styled. His eyes are black as well. Overall, an average business man. It is assumed that he is quite handsome given how female characters, such as Sylvanna, are often seen checking him out.

As an Ultima werewolf, he shares the same wolf ears and tail as Aaron, leading Aphmau to think that he was actually Aaron when she arrived at Starlight Wonderland. The only difference is that his ears and tail don't have red tips.

Personality

He is mostly busy with his job, so he is out of the loop usually (as evidenced when he thought Aaron and Aphmau were married). He feels horrible that he lost Alexander. He is happy when he is been given another chance by his son.

In Phoenix Drop High, in the episode "Heartbreak", he seems more assertive, saying how Aaron is his son and shouldn't be seeing or having relationships with anyone. Aaron also has to refer to him as "sir". He seems angrier in this episode. He also has "eyes everywhere", tracking Aaron's movements and conversations both in person and on his phone. He also believed that constant discipline, isolation, probation, and removal of privileges and even the legal right to freedom as an adult would keep Aaron tamed, only for it to cause Aaron's eyes to be untamed more often as he needed socialization, which was the primary thing Derek kept Aaron from having. He seemed to let that thought pass him sometime after Aaron left college and became an independent adult, as shown later when he wasn't upset that Aaron was living with someone. It wasn't until Melissa told him that Aaron was planning to propose to Aphmau that he remembered his motives.

It is later revealed in season four that he was trying to help Aaron control his Ultima Abilities by isolating him from everyone. After realizing that Aphmau soothes Aaron, he realized that Aaron was a different person from him despite them both being Ultimas. What helped Derek become tamed never worked on Aaron as it was just making it worse by taking away everything that made him calm. Aaron was losing control of his eyes, his grades were dropping, and he was acting and being treated like an outcast. If Aphmau was never in Aaron's life, he would've been in a much more aggressive and possibly feral state. Derek then turned a new leaf and promised to Aphmau that she and Aaron will reunite next year in Starlight Wonderland.

After the event, Derek became more a cheerful and fun-loving dad, who may do things that are considered embarrassing according to Melissa, like revealing what Melissa and Aphmau talked about or having a straightforward fake last name while at Starlight. Aaron was also able to help him deal with the pressures of being an Ultima, but was embarrassed when Melissa brought it up.

When in physical labor, he gets carried away and exposes his upper body, even if it's outside in the snow. He also seems competitive about his muscles, as he had a bare-chest flex-off with Garte in front of their families.

In the last episode of Emerald Secret, he says that he doesn't want Aaron to make the same mistake that he did. When Derek said that, he looked at Rachel. This might mean that he turned Rachel into a werewolf.

He will only trust certain people with his secret about he and Aaron being Ultimas or even being werewolves in general. That doesn’t mean that those that he trusts will return the favor such as Zack and Xavier.

Trivia

• He thought Aaron and Aphmau were husband and wife.
• He loves pancakes, especially ones made by Kawaii~Chan.
• The ringtone on his phone is 'Work' by Rihanna.
• Although Derek is currently a relic, he could still be alive just as Lucinda, Zane, and Aaron were when they were temporarily turned into relics.
  • It's possible that Travis is still in possession of Derek's relic, as Michael had absorbed Derek's relic using Travis' body.
