ā€œ Scott: "When they come after you, I won't be able to protect you. I can't protect anyone."
Jackson: "You know what? Now you have to do it. Get me what I want, and I will be fine protecting myself."
Scott: "No you won't! Just trust me-- all it does is makes things worse."
Jackson: "Oh, yeah? Really? You can hear anything you want and run faster than humanly possible. Sounds like a real hardship, McCall."
Scott: "Yeah, I can run really fast now, except that half the time, I'm running away from people trying to kill me! And I can hear things, like-like my girlfriend telling people she doesn't trust me anymore, right before breaking up with me. I'm not lying to you! It ruins your life."

ā€” Scott and Jackson about being a Werewolf in Co-Captain


The relationship between True Alpha Werewolf Scott McCall and Kanima-Werewolf hybrid Jackson Whittemore

Though Jackson and Scott have seemingly been classmates their entire lives, Jackson and Scott did not initially have a relationship, as Jackson was a popular jock and captain of the lacrosse team while Scott was a relatively unknown "benchwarmer." However, after Scott was inadvertently bitten and turned into a Werewolf, his superhuman physical attributes made him excel in athletics so much that he quickly surpassed Jackson as the most talented member of the team.

Jackson, believing Scott to be using some kind of performance enhancer, dedicated himself to figuring out Scott's secret, ultimately learning that Scott was, indeed, a Werewolf. He then began blackmailing Scott into getting him the Bite as well by threatening to tell Allison Argent, Scott's girlfriend and the daughter of a family of dangerous Werewolf Hunters, what he really is. Before this could occur, Jackson and Scott were forced to work together to defeat Peter Hale, the Alpha Werewolf who turned Scott, after which Jackson was rewarded by newly ascended Alpha Derek Hale with the Bite.

Unfortunately, due to Jackson's identity issues stemming from being adopted, Jackson became a Kanima, a reptilian shapeshifter used as a weapon of vengeance against murderers, instead of a Werewolf; since Kanima's seek a master, he was quickly put under the control of Matt Daehler, who wanted to use the creature to kill those he deemed responsible for his near-drowning as a child. When Scott and his friends Allison and Stiles figured out that Jackson was the Kanima killing members of the 2006 swim team, he was one of the few people who wanted to save Jackson's life rather than kill him to end the threat to innocent citizens.

Thankfully, they were able to do so after Jackson was stolen from Matt and put under the control of Allison's grandfather Gerard Argent, as Jackson's ex-girlfriend Lydia was able to use her Banshee powers to transform him into the Werewolf he was meant to be, albeit one who retained some Kanima traits.

From there, Jackson and Scott seemed to have parted on good terms before Jackson and his family moved to London, due to the public attention his deaths and resurrections caused while he was still a Kanima. When Jackson and his boyfriend, Ethan Steiner, learned that Gerard was helping Tamora Monroe create a global army of Hunters based in Beacon Hills, the two came straight to Jackson's hometown to help the McCall Pack in their fight against them. Jackson and Scott are now in search of orphaned supernatural creatures to join their pack in order to protect them from Gerard and Monroe's Hunters.

Throughout Teen Wolf[]

In Wolf Moon, Scott was locking up his bike in front of Beacon Hills High School when Jackson parked his Porsche right next to him. He hit Scott with his car door as he was getting out and immediately scolded Scott to mind his car despite being the one who touched him in the first place.

Later on, Scott watched as Jackson and his girlfriend Lydia Martin approached new student Allison Argent in the hallway between classes, using his newly-enhanced senses to eavesdrop on their conversation as a result of being bitten by an Alpha Werewolf the night before. He heard Jackson and Lydia invite Allison to a party at the Martin House on Friday, which Allison politely declined, stating that she had "family night" that evening.

At lacrosse practice, Jackson was baffled by Scott's newfound athleticism (strength, speed, agility/reflexes, etc), especially after he showed Jackson up on the field in front of Allison and Lydia, who had come to watch their practice and who were very impressed by Scott's skills. Jackson, embarrassed by being out-shined by a player who before now was a "benchwarmer," attempted to set up Scott for failure as goalie by launching a powerful shot at him, but Scott managed to catch it easily, much to Jackson's frustration.

The next day, Jackson, still upset about Scott's success on the field the previous day, corners him in the hallway before lacrosse practice. Shoving Scott against the wall of lockers, Jackson demanded to know where he was getting his "juice," believing him to be using steroids or other performance enhancers in order to gain his lacrosse skills. Scott naively had no idea what Jackson was talking about, and when he realized what Jackson meant, he asked Jackson if he used steroids. Jackson became irate and slammed his hand against the lockers behind Scott, again demanding answers in a threatening tone of voice.

Scott, at the end of his rope, insisted that he would like to know what was going on as well, as he was able to see, hear, and smell things that he shouldn't be able to sense, he was sleepwalking three miles into the woods, and he believed he was losing his mind. Jackson wasn't satisfied with this answer and vowed to figure out what was going on with Scott before heading to practice.

Jackson wasted no time tackling Scott on the field, causing him to become so angry that he managed to snatch the ball back and make a goal by doing a front-flip with his enhanced agility and reflexes to avoid the other players. Coach Finstock, both irritated and impressed by Scott's showmanship, immediately declared Scott to have made first line, which only proved to make Jackson more furious.

A few days later, at Lydia's party, Scott saw Jackson making out with Lydia while he and Allison were dancing. However, Scott was eventually forced to leave when the full moon overhead caused him to begin to transform.

In Second Chance at First Line, Scott and Jackson were both at lacrosse practice, where Jackson was still intent on showing Scott up, jealous of his newly-gained lacrosse skills and the attention it was getting him. During one-on-ones, Scott was next to go up against Jackson, and despite his best efforts, Jackson managed to defeat him, causing Jackson to sneer, "You sure you still want to be first line, McCall?" and leading Coach Finstock to begin loudly mocking him in front of the whole team and their spectators in the stands.

Scott, furious, got to his feet and agreed to do the exercise again at Coach's insistence, his eyes flashing gold, though fortunately, no one noticed. During his repeat performance, Scott ran into Jackson so hard that he badly injured the latter's shoulder and had worked himself into the beginnings of a transformation, forcing Stiles to help rush Scott into the locker room to try to calm him down while everyone else was distracted by tending to Jackson's injury.

Neither of the three noticed Derek Hale watching their practice from the sidelines, and Jackson was oblivious to the fact that Scott would soon completely transform into his Werewolf form and almost maul Stiles to death, the pain from his injury keeping him from further investigating the source of Scott's new-found athleticism. That night, worried about Scott potentially outing himself and, by extension, Derek and the other Werewolves in Beacon Hills, Derek went to the McCall House and told Scott that if he didn't sit out of the upcoming lacrosse game, Derek would kill him.

The next day, Allison, Scott's crush, not only informed Scott that she would be attending the upcoming game (after Scott tried and failed to get out of the game with Coach), but she also added that afterward, the two of them would be going out with Jackson and Lydia as well, before telling Scott to invite Stiles and rushing to class.

In the next class, Lydia confronted Scott about not playing in the game, and when he admitted that he "sort of wasn't" playing, Lydia retorted, "I think you sort of are-- especially when you brutally injure my boyfriend by ramming into him." When Scott argued that it was actually Jackson who brutally ran into him, Lydia ignored him and went on to make her point-- though Jackson would be playing, he wouldn't be at his "peak performance," and since Lydia only wanted to be the girlfriend of the captain of the winning lacrosse team, not the losing one, Scott, as the next best player, needed to pick up the slack for him.

When Scott continued to resist, Lydia finally convinced him by stating that if he didn't play, she would take Allison out afterwards and introduce her to all of his hot fellow lacrosse players while Scott stayed home, which seemed to be the last bit of motivation he needed to find a way around Derek's ultimatum. True to her word, Lydia began introducing Allison to other lacrosse players at school just to make certain that Scott did as she asked.

That night, Scott and Stiles went to the hospital to investigate the body Scott found in the woods on the night he was bitten, where they inadvertently bumped into Jackson and Lydia, the former of whom was there to be seen for his shoulder injury. Jackson was ultimately given a cortisone shot to help with the injury, and Lydia encouraged him to get another one before the game like many professional athletes to ensure that he was ready to play as well as possible.

Friday night, Scott was getting ready for the game in the locker room, feeling safe enough to play in the game due to Derek having been arrested for the murder of the girl in the woods, when he suddenly overheard Jackson talking to the other players; though he only heard bits and pieces due to the distance between them and the low volume of their voices, Jackson was soon revealed to be telling the others not to pass the ball to Scott.

When the game began, Jackson managed to get possession of the ball in the first play, but though Scott was wide open for a pass, Jackson tossed the ball to another player instead. This continued for several more plays until finally, Jackson was tackled and lost the ball, leading Scott to get his chance to grab it; unfortunately for him, Jackson managed to scramble to his feet, shoulder-checking Scott out of the way and grabbing the ball back before he had a chance to take it for himself. After the team managed to score a goal, Jackson caught Scott's eye as he was high-fiving another player and smirked to make certain Scott knew he was being shunned intentionally.

Scott, who was bummed but was still taking it all in stride until this point, saw Allison in the stands with Lydia, who were both holding up a sign Lydia had made cheering on Jackson, which was the last straw, causing him to start to get riled up and risking another unintentional transformation.

Meanwhile, Jackson, Danny, and a couple other players were huddled together further down the field, where Jackson was reiterating that they were only allowed to pass the ball to him. Danny, thinking this was unreasonable, asked what he was supposed to do if Scott was open, leading Jackson to aggressively ask him who was the team captain-- Danny, or himself-- causing Danny to argue that he just wanted to win. Jackson insisted that they would, and when Danny continued to argue, Jackson angrily asked, "What did I say?" until Danny finally reluctantly backed down and repeated, "Don't pass to McCall."

Having overheard this, Scott began breathing hard, his fangs extended as he began to transform, which didn't escape Stiles' notice from the bench. The game continued on, with Scott's growling clearly disturbing the players on the other team. However, after the standoff leads to the ball flying haphazardly away from both of the players, the ball flew towards Scott, finally giving him the opportunity to actively play in the game and score a goal, not passing it to anyone in the process and risk being shut out again.

This move gained him some positive attention from his teammates, which infuriated Jackson, who was intent to turn the attention back onto himself. Unfortunately for Jackson, Coach, seeing the score now nearly tied and wanting to turn the tide by the end of the game, encouraged the others to pass to Scott, only for Jackson to ignore him. Scott, whose eyes were blazing gold and his fangs were out, scared one of the players on the other team so much that he literally handed the ball to Scott and allowed him to score a goal, much to the confusion of everyone around them, though the score was now 5-5 thanks to Scott's help.

However, Scott was now beginning to lose control over his transformation and was struggling to find some bit of humanity to grab onto and pull himself back, though the majority of the people around him were oblivious. During the next standoff, the player up against Jackson asked Jackson what was up with Scott, specifically what drugs he was on, and Jackson, jealous and angry, admitted that he didn't know... yet. The opposing player got the ball but dropped it, allowing Scott to scoop it up and run toward the goal, only to stop midway there in fear as the wolf overtook him and his vision went red.

Fortunately, Allison's voice from the stands brought him back enough to make the final goal before the time ran out, causing Beacon Hills High School to win the game, much to everyone's elation, though to Jackson it was a bittersweet win. Scott was forced to run off the field while everyone was celebrating to try to reign in his transformation, though he was ultimately able to do so without anyone seeing him. However, he left one of his gloves, which had been pierced through the fingertips with his claws, on the field, which Jackson found.

Noticing the holes at the tips of the fingers, Jackson frowned in confusion, not knowing Derek was behind him, watching him, until he turned around, only for the the two to stare at each other for a long moment until Derek finally walked away.

In Pack Mentality, Scott and Allison get dragged on a double date with Jackson and Lydia in a bowling alley, Jackson is better at bowling and Scott clearly isn't, but he uses his werewolf abilities to help himself strike. Jackson yet again accuses to him of cheating and doesn't believe him. He says he won't give up on finding out Scott's secret.

In Night School, Jackson, Lydia and Allison come to help Scott and Stiles who were stuck into the school because of the Alpha. Jackson votes that Stiles call his father to help them get out but Stiles doesn't want to put his dad in danger, but he does that anyway. Scott goes to confront the Alpha with a Molotov Cocktail but thanks to Jackson choosing the wrong chemical, it didn't work and Scott shifts to go kill his friends but Allison's voice helps him shift back to human form and they're rescued by the police.

In Wolf's Bane, after going to a doctor and healing his claw wounds from Derek, Jackson realizes Scott is a werewolf and also wanted the bite. He threatened Scott that if he doens't get the bite, he'll stay with Allison.

In Co-Captain, Jackson still insists on getting the bite but Scott thinks it'll complicate everything.

In Code Breaker, he helps Scott and the others defeat Peter with Molotov Cocktails. Now that Derek has killed Peter, he's an Alpha, so Jackson asks him to give him the bite and Derek gives it to him.

In Omega, Jackson didn't shift after being bitten by Derek but instead he started bleeding a black substance, Derek believed his body was fighting the bite for unknown reasons. At night, Jackson kept bleeding.
