002, chaos rising
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

LYDIA AND Allison end up tracing the pattern on their wrists, Allison says it has to mean something as the girl wasn't just looking for Scott, it was like she needed to find him.

That leaves the teenage girls driving towards Scott's location, hoping Scott knows someone that might know what the pattern means.

Miah, Lydia and Allison arrive at the house where Scott is currently at.

Allison texts Scott as he isn't answering her phone calls to meet the three girls outside.

Scott exits the house not long after Allison texts him─ looking at the three girls confused before glancing back at his ex girlfriend.

"This isn't the talk we were gonna have, is it?" Scott asks while Allison shakes her head in a no motion.

Miah looks at Lydia confused but takes a guess that these two dated, "I need to show you something." Allison states holding her wrist out showing the bruise.

Scott looks at the girl confused before looking behind her to Miah standing beside Lydia hugging herself due to the weather being slightly cold.

Miah looks around after she swears she hears a scream.

Lydia notices and looks at the blonde worried before Miah just shrugs and smiles at her ignoring the scream and thinking it's some part of her imagination.

Allison and Scott discuss things before she mentions that Lydia also has the bruise.

Scott doesn't know he does it but he glances at Miah to make sure she isn't bruised either, looking at the girl's wrist─ he sighs seeing no bruise marks.

"Do you know anyone that might know if this bruise is a symbol or something?" Lydia asks standing beside Allison, looking at Scott.

Scott shakes his head before Miah shrugs, "Ask Derek?" Miah states receiving looks from Scott and the girls.

"That actually might work. I'll call Derek and have him meet us at the school tomorrow morning?" Scott asks looking at Allison, Lydia and Miah.

All three girls of agreeing before getting back into Allison's vehicle to go home and get some rest.

The next morning Scott tells Allison and Lydia to meet at the school to see Derek.

The two ask if the blonde wants to tag along which she politely declines as she wants to spend some time with her aunt.

Miah softly smiles walking down the staircase, "Hey, Aunt Nat." Miah says walking into the kitchen where the woman's sitting doing her work.

"Hey sweetheart. What's up?" Natalie says shocked at seeing the teenager at the house and not with Lydia.

"Just wanted to spend some quality time with my aunt. Haven't seen you in a while." Miah shrugs sitting beside Natalie on the kitchen counter.

"Well, I'm flattered," Natalie smiles seeing her nieces smile at the response.

"How are you since your parents died, sweetie?" Natalie asks, Miah looks at the marble counter top sighing sadly.

"I'm okay. Just sucks they're gone and never coming back." Miah says frowning, Natalie nods looking at the blonde sadly.

"By the way, I forgot to mention earlier. I love this new look. Blonde is absolutely gorgeous on you, Miah." Natalie states playing with the girls hair.

Miah smiles softly at her aunty, "Yeah? You really like it? I needed a change. The brunette hair held such sad memories." Miah answers looking at Natalie who's already smiling at the girl proudly.

"I've always said blonde hair would suit you to your mother." Natalie shrugs before hugging her niece comfortably.

Miah lays her head on the woman's shoulder and wraps her arms around her aunt's frame smiling at the feeling of comfort.

"Okay. Enough of the sappy sad stuff, Aunt Nat. What have you been up too?" Miah says breaking away from the hug putting a smile on her face.

Natalie looks at the blonde and just shakes her head, "Nothing at all. I've been getting ready for a job at the high school," Natalie answers as Miah looks at all the paperwork.

"Which by the way. My gorgeous niece you're all enrolled. You officially start tomorrow." Natalie says remembering she had to tell Miah about joining Beacon Hills High school.

Miah groans before smiling, "Ugh, school, nah I'm kidding. Thank you so much for taking me in, Aunt Nat." Miah says looking at the woman.

"You're family Lia. Of course." Natalie says using the nickname Miah's mother use to have for the teenage girl.

Miah smiles hugging her aunty again, "Call me that all the time." Miah pleads wanting to remember her lost loved ones and remembering Natalie also look her sister and brother in law.

"Of course, Lia." Natalie says rubbing along the blonde's hair, Miah breaks away from the hug again and gets off the stool she was sitting on.

"Well, I'm going to go up to my room and look at what subjects you put down for me." Miah says happily.

Natalie nods softly seeing her niece walk off towards the staircase, sighing as she realises how much the girl reminds her of her sister.

Scott and the others meet Derek in one of the classrooms, Allison and Lydia hold their wrists together showing the alpha the bruise.

Derek looks at them confused before looking at Scott, "I don't see anything." Derek shrugs, "Look again." Scott says.

"How is a bruise gonna tell me where Boyd and Erica are?" Derek asks curiously, "It's the same on both sides. Exactly the same." Scott states.

"It's nothing." Derek grumpily mumbles, "Pareidolia." Lydia states, Derek looks at her confused as does Scott.

"Seeing patterns that aren't there? It's a subset of apophenia." Lydia explains as Derek looks at Scott annoyed with his arms crossed.

"They're trying to help." Scott mumbles, "These two?" Derek asks incredulously looking at Scott before pointing at Lydia.

"This one, who used me to resurrect my psychotic uncle," Derek explains.

"Thank you." he then says sarcastically earning a smile off Lydia, before he points at Allison who's looking at the alpha amused.

"And this one, who shot about thirty arrows into me and my pack?" Derek states.

Allison looks at him annoyed, "Okay. All right. Now, come on, no one died, all right?" Stiles says joining into the discussion.

"Look, there may have been a little maiming, okay? A little mangling, but not death and that's what I call an important distinction." Stiles rambles.

Derek looks at him even more annoyed than before, Allison leans forward towards Derek, "My mother died." she quietly mumbles squinting at the alpha.

Derek scoffs, "Your family's little honor code killed your mother. Not me." Derek states looking at the huntress.

"That girl was looking for Scott. I'm here to help him. Not you." Allison states looking at the alpha still.

"You wanna help? Find something real." Derek says before turning around to leave the room.

Scott follows the man towards the exit, "Derek, give her a chance. Okay? They're on our side now. Plus trust Miah." Scott says.

Derek looks at the beta more annoyed than ever at mentioning someone who's like his little sister.

"Well, then maybe you should tell her what her mother was actually trying to do that night." Derek states going to walk out of the classroom before turning around towards Scott again.

"Miah's the only one I trust out of your little friendship group." Derek states leaving the classroom and school angry.

Scott sighs before looking at his friends, "Lydia, where's Miah?" Scott wonders.

"She's at home. She wanted to spend some time with my Mom." Lydia explains as Scott nods.

"Do you think she'll know what the pattern means if you show her properly?" Scott asks.

Lydia goes to answer that Miah was with both her and Allison when they discovered the bruises.

"We can always ask her." Lydia nods walking out of the classroom alongside the others getting her phone out to call Miah.

Miah's phone rings as the girl finishes looking at her class schedule, "Yello?" Miah greets answering the phone call.

"Hey Memi. Do you think you could meet Allison and I at the school?" Lydia asks cheerfully on the other line.

"Yeah of course. Let me guess, Derek was no help?" Miah asks getting off her bed and getting her jacket to leave the household.

She rushes down the staircase, Natalie looks at the girl and smiles, "Yeah no help at all. Scott wants to ask you some questions." Lydia explains.

"Of course. I'll be right there." Miah states ending the phone call looking up at her aunt again.

"Car keys are on the hanger beside the front door, Sweetpea." Natalie states already knowing what the blonde girl was going to ask.

Knowing she also has her license and has had it for nearly a year now, "Awesome. Thank you, Aunt Nat. I'll be home later, love you." Miah rushes out grabbing her car keys and unlocking the vehicle.

Driving off towards the high school, thankful both her and her parents use to visit Beacon Hills frequently so she knows her way around the town.

She pulls into the parking lot to the school noticing Scott and an unknown boy exiting the school alongside her cousin, "Lyds, hey." Miah says walking up to the teenagers.

Stiles looks at the blonde with a wide eyed expression taking in her beauty.

"Wow." Stiles whispers to Scott who nods agreeing that Miah is gorgeous.

"So, what's up?" Miah asks curiously, allowed in the school as she's now enrolled.

"Do you recognise this pattern?" Lydia asks showing Miah her phone and the picture she took of hers and Allison's wrist with the bruises.

"Looks familiar. Could be a symbol of some kind?" Miah states very nauseous from the symbol and the bad memories regarding around the symbol.

"Come to library with me? Allison's there already." Lydia asks, Scott and Stiles thank the girl for her help and leave the girls alone.

Miah smiles politely as the boys rush off towards their next class, "Sure. Let's go." Miah nods following Lydia towards the schools library.

Where both girls have a free period─ entering the library, the blonde looks around before seeing a concentrated Allison doing her work.

Miah sneaks up looking at a smirking Lydia nodding at her before softly scaring the brunette who gasps being startled, "Sorry, I had too." Miah says laughing.

Allison just laughs along with the blonde happy to see her around a lot more, "Did you recognise the pattern?" Allison asks looking at Miah's bright smile.

"It looks super familiar in my eyes. I'm here to help." Miah says smiling before her smile drops seeing Aiden staring at her.

Miah gulps growing pale looking around for more, "Don't worry, Miah. We aren't here for you." Ethan says under his breath.

To be fair, Miah always had a soft spot for Ethan since his a lot more polite and less dickish than Aiden.

She growls under her breath at the twins before going back to the conversation that Lydia and Allison are having.

Allison continues to roughly sketch the pattern on her paper, Lydia looks at the twins fidgeting with her fingers.

"I want one." Lydia states as Allison looks behind her noticing the twins before turning towards Lydia and Miah again.

"Which one?" Allison asks amused, Miah rolls her eyes, "The straight one. Obviously." Lydia says sipping her coffee.

Allison turns around noticing Ethan looking at Danny flirtatiously, Lydia starts to get from the library desk.

Miah softly giggles knowing her cousin is going to go a flirt up a storm with Aiden, yes she doesn't like the boy but she can't stop her cousins decision.

Allison looks at the coffee cup of Lydia, picking the object up and looking it over.

Miah frowns her brows seeing the brunette frowning hers as well, "What's wrong, Als?" Miah says unaware of the nickname she called the girl.

Allison smiles at nickname, "What if it's not a symbol? What if it's actually a logo?" Allison says now noticing the absence of Lydia and her flirting with Aiden.

She turns around typing on her laptop, Miah looks at the symbol on the cup before glancing at Allison's wrist now figuring out why the bruise looked familiar making her gasp in horror.

"You genius." Miah says, Allison looks at the girl confused, "It is a symbol and it's the old national bank here in Beacon Hills. I've been there before. I'm gonna need your help." Miah states.

Allison nods almost straight away wanting to help her new friend out, getting all of stuff off the table while Miah cleans up Lydia's as well.

Miah and Allison look at each other nod─ basically silently agreeing they'll text each other later.

Miah walks over towards Aiden and Lydia, "Here you go. I'm gonna head. Allison's already gone." Miah explains, looking at Aiden who's smirking at her.

"Yeah. Hello to you too, Miah." Aiden says earning a shocked look from Lydia who looks at her cousin who's scowling at the twin.

"Yeah. Goodbye." Miah scoffs walking out of the library annoyed at the twin alpha, rushing into the school from the library.

She doesn't watch where she's going and she crashes into a hard chest─ letting out an grunt nearly falling to the ground.

"Oh my god. Are you okay?" Scott asks the girl, "Yeah. Yeah I'm all good. Sorry about that." Miah smiles at the handsome boy before looking at Stiles beside him.

"Hi, I'm Miah. I don't think we've been introduced yet." Miah says smiling.

"I'm Stiles." Stiles replies looking at the gorgeous girl in front of him and Scott─ seeing her blush looking at his best friend, Stiles smirks.

"Anyways, I've gotta go. See you around?" Miah asks looking at Scott, who nods watching the blonde girls retreating figure.

"Oh! You got it bad" Stiles says grabbing Scott's shoulders, "I don't know what it is about her. She just keeps dragging me in and not to mention she has the sweet flowery scent about her." Scott explains smiling as they continue walking down the hallway.

Going back to the plan of getting Isaac to remember what happened, going to Deaton for help─ they meet up with Isaac there.

After a while of silence, "Have you seen Miah?" Isaac asks, looking at Scott, "Yeah. She's good." Scott replies looking at the beta who's smiling.

"She's the only thing I remember. Her and the girl saving me." Isaac says watching Derek and Scott pour the ice into the ice bath he's about to enter.

"Wait. Miah was there?" Derek asks worriedly, "I don't remember. Hopefully I can after this." Isaac says nodding at the bathtub.

Isaac walks over towards Deaton so the veterinarian can explain things further but they're distracted by the doorbell ringing at the front of the clinic.

Deaton goes towards the front seeing the blonde at the door looking at the vet smiling.

"Hey, Dee." Miah shrugs hugging the man who helped her all those years ago.

"I heard you were back in town." Deaton says finishing the hug, before looking at the back of the shop.

"I'm sorry I interrupted something, didn't I?" Miah asks looking around the clinic hearing the extra heartbeats now.

Deaton nods and motions towards the back as they enter, she notices the others other than Derek looking at them confused.

"Hey guys." Miah waves walking over towards Derek giving him the knuckles.

Isaac, Scott and Stiles look at them confused, "Deaton here saved me many times to count. He also called me here to help." Miah reveals making them all nod.

"I know Erica and Boyd. But I don't know where they're, sorry Derek." Miah says looking at Derek sadly before looking at the others.

"I do know though that this place is like the abandoned bank. I don't know for a fact though." Miah explains looking up at them sadly.

"The alphas killed my parents, kidnapped me and kept me locked away. If it wasn't for my friend finding Isaac here, I'd still be there." Miah explains feeling a hand being placed on her back flatly in reassurance.

Miah looks behind her seeing Derek rubbing up and down on her back.

"So, Isaac, if you wanna do this. Let's do this, I wanna find my friends." Miah explains sadly knowing that the alpha also took some of her memories away.

Deaton looks at the mage hybrid with adoration in how far she's come since the last time they saw each other.

Miah nods for Deaton to explain what's about to happen, "Obviously, it's not going to be particularly comfortable. But, if we can slow your heart rate down enough, you'll slip into a trance like state." Deaton explains.

"Like being hypnotised." Isaac says, both himself and Deaton walk closer to the ground surrounded around the bathtub.

"Exactly. You'll be half-transformed, it'll let us access your subconscious mind." Deaton says, "How slow does his heart rate need to be?" Scott asks.

"Very slow." Miah answers, "Okay well. How slow is very slow?" Derek asks looking at Deaton and Miah, "Nearly dead." Deaton says.

Scott and Derek look at the two questionably, "It's safe though, right?" Isaac asks putting his hand into the tub full of ice─ letting out a hiss due to the coldness.

"Do you want me to answer honestly?" Deaton asks, "No. No, not really." Isaac sighs.

While a rubber snapping sound is heard from the side of them, all heads turn towards the sound.

Miah chuckles, looking at the culprit seeing a rubber glove on his hand.

Derek looks at the boy unamused and annoyed, "What?" Stiles asks receiving the same look again from the older werewolf and immediately takes off the glove.

Walking towards the group and bathtub again, "Look, if it feels too risky, you don't have to do this." Derek explains looking at Isaac, Miah and everyone else nod agreeing with Derek.

Isaac takes off his shirt, Miah can't help herself but check the boy out inhaling softly.

All eyes turn to her, "Okay? Seriously what? His hot." Miah shrugs smirking at Isaac who's turning red.

The others look at the girl still, "Can't help a girl from looking. Let's continue. Chop, chop." Miah says slapping her hands together to snap the males out of staring at her.

Both Deaton and Derek look at one another smirking seeing how Scott tensed up at the girl calling Isaac hot.

Miah winks at Isaac who's still staring at her, "Come on. Get in the tub." Miah says softly to the boy kissing his cheek for good luck.

Isaac clears his throat before stepping into the tub gasping heavily from the coldness of the ice mixed with the water.

Scott, Derek and Miah push him under the freezing cold water.

Isaac immediately flinches and comes out from under the water roaring, "Get him back under." Deaton says.

While Isaac starts grunting and fighting the werewolves and the mage hybrid.

"Hold him." Deaton demands getting a dirty look from Derek, "We're trying." Derek snarls holding onto Isaac tighter.

Miah whispers under her breath a manipulation spell to help the boy remain calm but also keep him under water, Isaac starts to calm down stopping his kicking and grunting.

He floats to the top of the water while Scott looks at Miah in amazement seeing the purple-red coloured aura coming from her hands, she winks at the boy and looks at Deaton.

Nodding at the older man to start with the hypnosis technique, Isaac sighs, as Deaton holds his finger up at the others in the room.

"Now, remember. Only I talk to him, too many voices will confuse him and draw him out." Deaton explains quietly as he starts questioning the boy softly.

Isaac starts growing nervous and scared before calming down again as Deaton starts to ask the teenage beta questions again.

Isaac reveals the same thing Miah said earlier about it being an abandoned place and it being dusty and dirty, relaxing the boy more.

Miah puts her hands on his shoulders letting the magic of her powers calm the boy down.

Scott, Derek and Stiles all watch the mage hybrid work her magic in awe.

Deaton continues with the questions before Isaac starts to thrash and grunt again, which worries Derek and he takes over yelling over the frightened beta.

Isaac yells one last time before gasping out of his hypnosis state, "A vault. It's a bank vault. I saw it! I saw the name, it's, uh, B-Beacon Hills First National Bank. It's, um.. it's an abandoned bank, and they're keeping them locked inside, inside the vault." Isaac says.

Miah looks at the others sadly after what she just heard come from Isaac's mouth.

She helps Isaac get out of the tub and wraps him in a towel to keep the boy warm.

He looks at her and quietly whispers thank you to her and she nods softly.

Using the magic residue on her hands to help him warm up, before Isaac looks at the others in the clinic seeing their gloomy and upset looks.

"What?" Isaac asks, "You don't remember what you said right before you came out of it, do you?" Stiles asks glumly, "No." Isaac says uneasily looking at the sad faces.

"You said when they captured you. That they dragged you into a room and that there was a body in it." Stiles explains.

Miah looks at the others sad knowing what body they're talking about.

Looking at the ground, now remembering what she saw before she escaped─ Erica's corpse, "What body?" Isaac asks.

Stiles sighs, "Erica. You said it was Erica." Stiles says sadly.

The others surround the bathtub as Derek goes into denial, "She's not dead." Derek states.

"Derek. He said, "There's a dead body, it's Erica". Doesn't exactly leave us room for interpretation." Stiles states.

Miah looks at the two unsure of she should mention that it's true, "Then who was in the vault with Boyd?" Derek asks, "Someone else, obviously." Stiles shrugs.

"And maybe it was the girl on the motorcycle, okay?" Scott says before turning towards Isaac who's wrapped in the arms of Miah, he ignores the pang he gets in his chest.

"The one who saved you?" Scott says, Miah shakes her head, "No, she wasn't like us and whoever was in the vault with Boyd was." Isaac explains.

"What if that's how Erica died? They, like, pit them against each other during the full moons and see which one survives? It's like werewolf thunder-dome." Stiles suggests looking around the clinic at the others.

"Then we get them out tonight." Derek states, Miah nods in agreement with her older friend.

"Be smart about this, Derek. You can't just go storming in." Deaton states.

"If Isaac got in and Miah got out, then so can we." Derek says, "But he didn't get through a vault door, did he?" Deaton asks looking at Derek.

"We need a plan." Scott says from beside Miah and Isaac, "How are we gonna come up with a plan to break into a bank vault in less than twenty-four hours?" Derek asks.

Miah goes to open her mouth to say she knows how to just as Stiles looks up from his mobile phone, "Uh, I think someone already did." Stiles says.

"Beacon Hills First National Bank closes its doors three months after vault robbery." Stiles reads aloud.

"Doesn't say here how it was robbed, but it probably won't take long to find out." Stiles continues looking at the others.

"How long?" Derek asks impatiently, "It's the internet, Derek, okay?" Stiles states as Derek looks at the boy annoyed and questionable.

"Minutes." Stiles states smirking at the alpha werewolf.

Miah looks beside her at Isaac and Scott before getting off the counter both her and Isaac were sitting on.

"Well, I'm going to head home. See you later." Miah states hugging both Derek and Deaton before leaving.

Scott watches still amazed that she can hug someone like the sour-wolf Derek Hale.

Miah looks behind her and winks at Isaac before smiling and waving at Scott, they soon all go separate ways.

Stiles and Scott going to Stiles's house and Isaac leaving with Derek to head to the loft for some sleep.

Allison calls Miah the next morning─ as well Lydia and explains she'll come pick them up.

Miah accepts as both the girls have the plan later to break into the abandoned bank. After showering and doing her morning routine to start her new high school.

Lydia walks into her bedroom happily, "First day of Beacon Hills High. You excited Memi?" Lydia asks seeing the girl doing the last of her makeup, and loving her outfit.

"School's school, Lyds. Let's do this though," Miah smiles at her strawberry blonde cousin hearing Allison's car pull up the driveway.

"Allison's here." Miah states leaving her bedroom and Lydia follows behind, both girls say their good morning greetings to Allison.

Miah gets into the back as Lydia sits in the front, "New school? Nervous?" Allison asks looking in the mirror at Miah.

"Nope. Just wanna get this whole new girl business over and done with." Miah explains as they pull up to the high school's parking lot.

Lydia looks at the two confused before starting to have a conversation about the bruises on hers and Allison's arm.

"So, Mystery Girl leaves a bruise on our arms that turns out to be the logo for a bank?" Lydia says getting out of the car looking at Allison before smirking.

"What's she trying to do? Give us investment advice?" Lydia asks again.

Allison raises her eyebrows alongside Miah who's getting out from the driver side back door beside Allison.

"Not at this bank. It's been closed for years." Miah explains, Allison smiles at the blonde.

"Why aren't you telling Scott?" Lydia asks Allison as they both move closer towards the school entrance waiting for the school bus to pass.

"Because, according to someone. I need to find something real." Allison says remembering what Derek said yesterday, opening the trunk of her car getting out her school bag.

Sharing a look with Miah, she nods at Lydia, "Which reminds me. I can't drive you home today. I have an errand to run after school." Allison explains while walk into the school.

Lydia hums accepting that Allison can't drive her home, as the girls step up onto the school's property.

Stiles groans getting out of his jeep while Scott gets out of the other side.

"All right. So, we meet at Derek's at five to go over the plan, and then we don't get started until dark." Scott explains walking beside his best friend who's putting his backpack on.

"Okay, what do we do 'til then?" Stiles asks, "What, right now? We've got English" Scott explains walking into the school doors as a flowery scent immediately hits his nose.

Walking inside the classroom, he sees Miah and a girl named Delilah sitting beside each other smiling and laughing at something Delilah said.

Miah looks at the entrance way seeing Scott and Stiles standing there, she smiles and waves at them.

Stiles sits down beside Lydia as always and Scott makes his way towards his desk behind Allison.

Soon the school day comes to an end and Allison looks behind at Miah who's already smiling and nodding at her, the two girls leave together and head towards the abandoned bank.

Miah and Allison look around at their surroundings while Miah grows nervous being back at the place that was her hell for months, Allison breaks the lock entering the old and dusty bank.

Miah screws her face up at how disgusting the place really is, seeing Allison doing the same, they both walk further into the building looking around at their surroundings.

✹

SCOTT AND Stiles meet the others, being Derek and Peter at Derek's loft ready to plan out the way they can get into the national bank.

"Okay, you see this?" Stiles asks putting a map transcript of the abandoned bank in front of them.

"This is how they got in. It's a rooftop air conditioning vent, leads down inside into the wall of the vault. Which is here, okay?" Stiles states circling the area where the vault is on the map while Derek and Scott listen carefully.

"One of the robbers was lowered into this shaft. Now, that space is so small, it took him about twelve hours to drill into that wall. Which is stone, by the way. Then, throughout the rest of the night, they siphoned the cash up to the guys back on the roof through that one little shaft in the wall," Stiles explains going over what his father told his earlier this morning.

"Boom!" Stiles says, "Can we fit in there?" Scott asks, "Yes, we can. But very, very barely. They also patched the wall, obviously, so we're gonna need a drill of some kind, I'm thinking maybe a diamond-bit." Stiles starts to explain.

"Look, forget the drill." Derek states growing impatient, "Sorry?" Stiles incredulously asks looking at Derek.

"If I go in first, how much space do I have?" Derek asks, "What do you... what do you think you're gonna do, Derek? You gonna punch through the wall?" Stiles asks flabbergasted.

"Yes, Stiles. I'm gonna punch through the wall." Derek states annoyed with the teenager.

"Okay, okay, big guy. Let's see it, let's see that fist, big old fist. Make it, come on, get it out there, don't be scared, big bad wolf." Stiles states, Derek puts his fist into the air looking at his uncle in disbelief.

Peter smirks knowing what Derek's about to do, "Yeah. Look at that." Stiles says looking at the male's fist.

"Okay, see this? That's maybe three inches of room to gather enough force to punch through solid co," Stiles starts to say while Derek punches the boys hand leaving the boy grunting and groaning due to the pain his hand is currently feeling.

Scott looks at the alpha annoyed at hurting Stiles, "He could do it." Stiles states groaning, "I'll get through the wall. Who's following me?" Derek asks mainly looking from Peter to Scott.

"Don't look at me, I'm not up to fighting speed, yet. And honestly, with Isaac out of commission, you're not looking at very good odds for yourself." Peter shrugs unbothered.

"So, I'm supposed to just let them die?" Derek asks, "One of them already is dead." Peter shrugs.

"We don't know that." Derek says irritated, "Do I have to remind you what we're up against here? A pack of alpha's, all of them killers. And, if that's not enough to scare your testicles back into your stomach, try to remember that two of them combine bodies to form one giant alpha." Peter says.

"I'm sure Erica and Boyd were sweet kids. They're gonna be missed." Peter mutters.

Stiles looks at the former alpha appalled, "Could someone kill him again. Please?" Stiles says looking at Derek, earning a offended look off Peter.

"Derek, seriously? Not worth the risk." Peter states, "What about you?" Derek asks looking at Scott.

"Yeah. If you want me to come." Stiles starts to say, "Not you!" Derek says irritated, "Got it." Stiles says motioning to his best friend beside him.

"I don't know about Erica. But, if Boyd's alive, we have to do something. We have to try." Scott says.

"But?" Derek asks hesitantly, "Who's the other girl? The one locked in there with Boyd?" Scott asks curiously.

✹

MIAH WALKS around with Allison following behind her using the mage hybrid as a shield in a way in case something bad happens.

Miah stops feeling another presence in the area that's not Allison, suddenly the girls are attacked from behind, Allison looks at the woman confused.

"Miss Morrell?" Allison asks shocked, "Keep your mouth shut! Listen close, you both have no idea what you just stepped into. Right now, you've got maybe twenty seconds to get your ass hidden." Miss Morrell states.

"What are you doing?" Allison asks, "Get in that storage closet over there. Lock the door, when you hear the fighting start, that's when you come out. And whatever you do Miah, don't let them see you." Miss Morrell says before looking at the blonde haired Martin girl.

"What fighting?" Allison asks confused looking at her frightened friend beside her.

"You'll hear it. Now, go." Miss Morrell orders them both before looking at Miah with scared eyes.

Allison and Miah lock themselves in the storage closet, Miah can hear the clicking of nails walking along the hallway.

She looks around finding ammonia to distract the wolves from their scents.

She sighs alongside Allison hearing the footsteps leave the hallway and walk somewhere different.

Allison takes off her jacket and places it on the liquid so none of them touch it and burn themselves.

Miah looks around the dark small room, frowning at the rotting smell.

Allison looks around before turning her flashlight on to reveal Erica's decaying corpse in front of the two teenager girls, they both let out gasps.

Miah gags looking at someone she counted as a friend for those months, and she sighs realising her memories were correct and that the alpha werewolves killed her.

And that Derek and the others are going to be upset about the girls death.

Miah lets out another sigh trying to use her coyote hearing to see if there's any fighting.

Miah continues to listen suddenly hearing growls and what sounds like Derek and Scott's voices.

As well as another one she never knew she would hear again—Cora Hale.

Miss Morrell's word seems to come true as Miah is the first one to hear the grunts and roars before Allison does.

Miah opens the door in a rush and runs towards the noise with Allison running after her.

Miah looks at the vault door to see it open and steps onto the door alongside Allison.

As they watch Derek and Scott fight Boyd and a very much alive Cora Hale.

She gasps seeing her old friend alive before looking at Boyd who has his claws pledged into Scott's stomach leaving him bleeding from the mouth and groaning.

Allison leans down to break the mountain ash seal she and Miah noticed before, only for Derek to call out to her saying no, she looks at her injured ex boyfriend worried for his life.

Then she looks at Miah who's looking at the boy in fear as well, Miah nods at the short haired brunette worried for her new friend who's currently groaning and bleeding from the mouth.

"Boyd!" Allison yells breaking the seal of mountain ash, the two werewolves run out of the vault door and into the town of Beacon Hills.

Derek furiously walks towards the girls annoyed with how they let two unhinged werewolves out of the seal and grabs onto both Miah and Allison's arm harshly.

"Don't touch them!" Scott yells, "What were you thinking?" Derek snarls at the two.

Miah breaks out of Derek's grip harshly annoyed at how hard he grabbed her.

"That we had to do something." Allison snaps, "They saved our lives." Scott says looking at Allison and then Miah who's holding onto her wrist in discomfort.

She looks at Scott seeing the way his looking at her, she nods showing him she's okay, he sighs.

"Yeah. And what do you think they're gonna do out there? Do you two have any idea what we just set free?" Derek harshly snarls.

"You want to blame me? Well, I am not the one turning teenagers into killers!" Allison furiously yells at the alpha, "No. No, that's just the rest of your family." Derek states.

"I made mistakes. Gerard is not my fault." Allison says sadly, "And what about your mother?" Derek asks.

Miah stands beside Allison confused but also minding her own business.

"What do you mean?" Allison asks, "Tell her, Scott." Derek says looking at the injured boy, with blood stained down his chin and shirt.

"What does he mean, Scott?" Allison asks sadly looking at her ex boyfriend, "What does he mean?" Allison asks.

Unaware to them other than Miah, she hears a wail in her ears and looks around seeing no one around them other than the same people at the bank.

The wail continues for about five minutes before it goes quiet leaving Miah gulping with nerves.
