009, the girl who knew too much
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
BEING STARTLED awake from her slumber with a scream coming from herself wasn't how Miah planned her night to go.
But here she is waiting for Allison to rush out of her apartment after receiving a frantic call from the blonde girl.
After she saw Lydia walk out of their house stating she was going to store to get some things less than ten minutes ago.
Miah smiles softly at the brunette who gets in the vehicle, "I called Scott and Stiles. They're gonna keep their phones on them so we can text them as soon as we know a destination." Allison states.
Miah nods as her head pounds from the lack of sleep she's guessing.
Allison looks over from the dash seeing Miah squeezing her eyelids closed due to the immense pressure of her headache, "I'll drive. Come on Mims. Swap seats with me." Allison demands.
Miah doesn't even hesitate with denying the offer, getting out of the driver seats and sitting in the passenger seat.
Miah's phone vibrates from the side of them, Miah groans out once more and without even reading the text message.
She tells the huntress to drive towards the high school, already feeling the pull of something dragging her there.
✹
ARRIVING AT the high school both Miah and Allison rush towards a panicked Lydia while Miah gets a strong scent of blood.
She frowns before continuing to comfort her cousin, hearing Stiles's jeep and Scott's motorcycle pulling up in the parking lot near them.
"Where is she?" Stiles asks not realising the three girls standing close to them.
"Over here." Allison states, both Scott and Stiles walk over to the three concerned.
"Lydia?" Stiles asks noticing the fear laced in the strawberry blondes eyes.
Miah looks around frowning getting the same scent of blood from before and looks at Scott who's looking at frowning.
"It's the same thing. Same thing as the pool. I got into the car heading somewhere totally different and ended up here and you told me to call you if there's a dead body." Lydia explains looking at Stiles.
"You found a dead body?" Stiles incredulously asks, "Not yet." Lydia shrugs.
"'Not yet?' What do you mean, 'Not yet?'. Lydia, you're supposed to call us after you find the dead body." Stiles states.
Miah begins walking forward unaware she's currently doing so, not hearing the conversation going on between her.
Scott notices the distant look in the blonde girls face and follows quietly behind her leaving the others discussing how they're supposed to find a possible dead body.
Miah snaps out of her daze softly grabbing ahold of Scott's hand in fear.
"Guys?" Scott calls out towards Lydia, Allison and Stiles, "Miah and I found the dead body." Scott states.
Miah gulps seeing the corpse lying upon the Beacon Hills high school sign dripping blood and staring at them with soulless eyes.
Miah flinches when the others rush towards them looking at the body of the deputy.
Not too long after the discovery of the deputy's body, the teens left once Sheriff Stilinski got to the scene. The man's demand of course.
Miah walks into her house alongside Allison and Lydia, who both agreed to stay with one another after the sudden discovery of the body earlier in the night.
Miah grimaces as the pain in her head comes back receiving concerned looks from both her cousin and Allison.
"I'm okay. Just tired. I'm going to call it a night. If both of you need me, just wake me up?" Miah asks getting a freshly cold bottle of water from the fridge seeing the nods of approval from both Lydia and Allison watching her walk up the staircase towards her bedroom.
Flopping down on the bed not even bothering to get under the covers the blonde mage hybrid falls into a deep slumber and luckily for her doesn't wake up until her alarm the next morning for school.
✹
ISAAC SMILES seeing Miah walking towards him at the end of her driveway.
"Hello stranger. Haven't seen you for a while." Miah greets smiling happy her headache from the previous night is gone feeling very revived for the day considering she and the others found the deputy's body last night.
"Good morning Mims. Are you ready for school?" Isaac asks as the blonde and himself gets inside the vehicle.
"Ready for the day to consist of deputies walking the halls. Sure." Miah smiles hearing Isaac chuckle while nodding.
"I'm sorry you had to see that last night. Couldn't have been a good sight." Isaac mumbles.
Miah straightens in her seat and focuses on the road ahead of them.
"Yeah, it was weird. One second I was standing with Lydia and Allison and then the next I alongside Scott found the woman's bloodied body lying on the sign." Miah explains looking at the male beside her.
"Think it could be your mage powers merging with your coyote ones?" Isaac asks.
"I don't know. I've dealt with them both in the past completely fine. This feels like something more and I can't help but feel like something's coming." Miah says looking at the road once more.
"Something good or bad?" Isaac asks looking at the blonde, "Something evil. Dark." Miah states.
They pull into the schools parking lot exiting the girls vehicle and meeting up with the others.
"Lyds? Where's Als?" Miah frowns noticing the lack of the huntresses appearance.
"Oh. She went back to her apartment earlier this morning to get ready for school." Lydia shrugs walking off towards her class.
Miah frowns confused but shrugs walking off towards her first class.
Miss Blake continues teaching the class although Miah isn't really paying much attention sitting behind Scott, noticing Lydia also drawing on one of her notes pages.
Miah sighs softly smiling at Miss Blake aware that her and Derek have been seeing one another for a few weeks now since the alpha saved her from Cora and Boyd during the full moon.
Miss Blake looks at the drawings of both the Martin's suddenly growing interested in what the two girls are drawing.
"Lydia, Miah. I wasn't aware both of you had so many hidden talents?" Miss Blake states.
Miah looks up from her sketch frowning at the picture not knowing what it is but looks beside her at Lydia smirking at her, "You and every guy we've ever dated." Lydia sarcastically states.
"Oh. Um, well, that was an idiom. By the way, idioms are something of a secret to the people who know the language or the culture. They're phrases that only make sense if you know key words. Saying 'jump the gun' is meaningful only if you know about the starting gun in a race or, a phrase like 'seeing the whole board'." Miss Blake explains walking past the two males sitting in front of the girls knowingly.
"Like chess." Stiles mutters, "That's right, Stiles. Do you play?" Miss Blake asks, "Uh, no. My father does." Stiles explains.
Miss Blake turns back towards the class and starts discussing the same subject once again.
Miah leans against her hand not focusing on the class once more and focusing on her sketch─ that now looks like a moon and two wolves fighting.
She frowns once again before looking up hearing both Scott and Stiles talking about the twins.
"I think I can get to Ethan. I'm pretty sure I can make him talk." Scott says leaning towards his best friend beside him.
"What do you want to do that for?" Stiles asks, "The druids are emissaries, right? So, what if the darach was an emissary to the alphas?" Scott asks looking around noticing Miah listening in on the conversation.
"Okay. First of all, I cannot believe we've gotten to the point where a sentence like, 'what if the darach was an emissary to the alphas?', actually makes sense to me. Second of all, we're gonna have a huge problem getting to Ethan." Stiles states overwhelmed with the situation.
"What's that?" Scott asks, "Going through Aiden." Miah says quietly from behind them getting a nod of approval from Stiles.
Scott looks at his best friend beside him and then the blonde girl behind him trying to figure out a plan.
"Ever since he's been back at school, they're always together. How are we gonna separate them again?" Stiles asks curiously making Scott raise his eyebrows before turning around looking at Lydia.
Which leaves Stiles immediately following his line of sight, Lydia looks up from her own sketch─ looking at the two best friends who are looking at her with such urgent in their eyes.
"What now?" Lydia asks making Miah softly laugh, Scott and Stiles fill the strawberry blonde in on the plan and without any questions asked because her cousin is involved in the plan.
Lydia agrees and sets off in the hallways ready to distract Aiden so Stiles and Scott can both ask Ethan some questions.
Miah has a minute to herself to look over her sketch book with urgency trying to figure out the sudden changes in her abilities.
Sensing something wrong with her cousin, she rushes towards where the noise is coming from.
Meeting Scott, Stiles and Ethan at the boys locker room who share the same concerned look with one another.
Rushing inside seeing Aiden preparing to hit Cora over the head with a weight once again.
Miah rushes over towards her cousin and her hurt friend on the ground before looking up at the three werewolves─ forming a ball of her chaos magic around her fingers making Aiden drop the weight.
Scott and Ethan both look at the blonde and nod as a thank you for the help.
Miah nods back before dropping to the ground beside Lydia and Stiles making sure Cora is okay.
Aiden looks at Miah with a death glare Ethan nods at Scott and follows his twin brother out of the locker room.
Miah looks at her injured friend groaning on the ground from the weight to the head and other wounds.
"Cor, are you okay?" Miah asks softly, Cora groans from the pressure of the wounds.
"Hey, guys? I think she's pretty hurt." Stiles says seeing Cora fall unconscious.
Miah gulps holding the brunettes head into her lap waiting for her to wake up from her unconscious state.
Around thirty minutes later Cora comes too, getting up from the ground and Miah's lap.
Miah hands her a clean wet towel to clean off the blood from her wound.
"You okay?" Stiles asks, Miah stands beside Cora draining the blood from the previous towel in the sink.
"She doesn't look okay." Lydia says softly seeing how much the wound on the side of her heads still bleeding.
"I'll heal." Cora irritably replies looking at Lydia and the others throwing the once white towel in the sink beside the other one.
Cora looks to the side softly smiling at her childhood friend before growing dizzy and nearly falling back.
"Uh. Oh." Stiles says preparing to catch the brunette if needed.
"I said... I'm fine." Cora states shaking Stiles's hand off her shoulders.
"Do you realize how suicidally crazy that was? What were you thinking, going after them?" Stiles asks.
"I did it for Boyd. None of you were doing anything." Cora states angrily.
Miah looks at her mourning friend, "We're trying." Scott says softly.
"And you're failing. You're just a bunch of stupid teenagers, running around, thinking that you can stop people from getting killed. But all you do is show up late. All you really do is find the bodies." Cora states just as Miah frowns growing offended by the comment.
"Um. One, you're a teenager yourself. Two, they're trying. There's just some other stuff happening around Beacon Hills also." Miah shrugs seeing Cora look at the her annoyed.
Miah raises her hands in surrender.
Cora walks out of the locker room leaving the offended teenagers behind.
"Don't take it to heart. She's just hurting. She's not usually this..." Miah begins to say.
"Bitchy?" Lydia finishes, Miah nods pointing at her cousin noticing Stiles staring at the sink where Cora previously was.
"She's definitely a Hale," Stiles mutters looking at Miah's pleading look.
"Mm. I'll make sure she gets home." Stiles says looking at Miah who smiles and nods.
Miah looks to her side seeing Lydia and Scott standing each side of her sadly.
"Okay, please don't take what she said to heart. We are trying. That's the least we can do." Miah says snapping them out of their depressed states as the blonde leaves the locker room.
Receiving a text message she looks at her phone smiling at the message on the screen from Derek.
Sorry for disappearing on you, Star. I just really needed some time to myself. I would never break a promise though, I'm back now.
It's okay Der. I know Boyd's passing brought up some harsh memories for you. Glad you're back.
Miah responds looking up seeing Miss Blake returning to her classroom with a huge smile on her face.
Miah smiles at Scott once he rushed up to her in the hallway explaining that him and her were going to sit in Ms Morrell's office until she returns.
"Sorry, but I don't remember having any more appointments." Ms Morrell states.
"You sure? 'Cause we could both use some guidance right now." Scott says as the woman looks over at both teenagers.
"Why are you bothering with me, Miah, Scott? When you both know the clock is ticking? When you both know someone else is about to be taken?" Ms Morrell states.
"By you." Scott states smirking at the woman, "Come on, Scott, Miah. Shouldn't you both leave the interrogation to someone like Stilinski?" Ms Morrell asks smirking at both of them.
"Are you the one killing people?" Miah asks folding her arms over her chest from beside Scott.
"Are you listening to my heartbeat?" Morrell asks mockingly.
Miah and Scott both focus on the woman's heartbeat, "No. I'm not the one killing people." Morrell states while her heart rate remains calm and collected.
Scott sighs sadly from beside the blonde, "Truth is. I'm all that stands between Deucalion and the lives of your friends. I've been the one pulling the leash taut when they're salivating for a bite." Morrell states.
Earning confused looks from both Miah and Scott, "What do you mean?" Scott asks.
"He wants a true alpha in his pack. He thinks it's you and a little distraction like a few human sacrifices isn't gonna dissuade him from the prize." Morrell states.
"I'm not an alpha." Scott states, "But you're well on your way, aren't you?" Morrell smirks.
"Then what is he waiting for? What does he want me to do?" Scott impatiently asks standing up from his seat beside the mage hybrid.
Who looks at him in surprise after the outburst, "He wants to make a killer out of you both. That's what he does." Morrell explains standing up from her seat leaning closer to the male.
"But, if I kill someone, I can't be a true alpha, right?" Scott asks, "Exactly." Morrell smirks seeing the confused look on Miah's face behind the male.
"You want the psychologist's perspective? He's an obsessive who both desires you two and is threatened by both of you. If the obsessive can't have the objects of his desire, he'll choose to destroy them instead. You'll both either willingly become part of his pack. Or he'll make a killer out of you both. Destroying both of your potential to become a true alpha and the fairy of destruction and chaos." Morrell explains noticing Miah raise her eyebrows hearing the new found nickname.
"Neither of those is ever going to happen. And I'm sure Miah here would never willingly join the man's pack after all that happened in the past." Scott snarls.
"Don't be so sure. You're both playing his game and while you're both trying to figure out what to do next. He's thinking ten moves ahead with checkmate already in sight." Morrell states making Miah frown.
"The fairy of destruction and chaos" Miah whispers, Morrell raises her eyebrows at the blonde.
"Miah? If you need someone to discuss things with. You're more than welcome to come see me." Morrell states as both Scott and herself exit the woman's office.
Miah goes to walk off only to see Scott staring into the hallway with a worried eyebrow raise.
"Hey. Come on." Miah says motioning towards classrooms, Scott nods following after the blonde girl.
Scott watches as Miah looks around the hallway questionably before looking at the werewolf and walking away from him in a zoned out way.
Scott frowns his eyebrows as she snaps out of her zombie like zone once again becoming faint, nearly falling onto the floor only for Scott to rush up and catch her.
"I'm okay. Thanks Scott." Miah says nodding before hearing the same scream she heard a few weeks ago coming from somewhere closer.
Walking towards the noise and nodding at Scott once he said he had to be somewhere else.
She notices Lydia in one of the classrooms, "Lyds? You okay?" Miah asks walking closer.
Lydia shakily nods her head as the school's security and Jennifer Blake along with Aiden rush into the room, "I don't get why no one's calling the police." Lydia says.
"They're gonna make an announcement over the PA." Miss Blake explains.
"That's not gonna do anything. I told you, he's gone. Just like the others. Taken." Lydia hysterically replies.
"Okay, look. We're just trying to understand, okay? All we know is that Mr Westover didn't show up for class." Miss Blake states.
"And the last time that happened was Mr Harris. Anyone heard from him lately?" Miah asks looking at the brunette teacher.
"He's gone and he's gonna be the second murder." Lydia explains pointing at the board with the number two printed on it with a five knot symbol.
Miah looks over noticing Scott and Ethan in the ground of people, "But, Lydia, you wrote that number." Miss Blake says, "Okay, fine. I'm psychic." Lydia sighs before stating.
"You're psychic?" Miss Blake sceptically asks, "I'm something!" Lydia yells out frustratedly.
Miah notices the looks from the other teachers, "Got something to say?" Miah scowls making the other teachers look away from the situation.
"That's what I friggin' thought." Miah snarls wrapping her arm around her cousins.
Hearing Scott and Ethan quietly talking amongst the surrounding students and staff.
"A deputy and a teacher? What's the pattern?" Ethan quietly asks, "I don't know." Scott grimly responds.
✹
NIGHTFALL SOON falls over the city of Beacon Hills, Miah gets off the phone with Allison who explains the whole situation her and Isaac found earlier in the day and that Isaac, Mr Argent and herself found Mr Westover.
Miah tells Scott everything so can update Stiles who's at the hospital with Cora after she passed out unconscious on his bedroom floor while he was trying to tell his father everything about the supernatural world.
Miah chews on her bottom lip as her anxiety fills her senses, fearing the worst for her childhood friend.
Knowing if Derek loses the girl all over again just after losing Boyd, she knows he'll leave Beacon Hills all together.
Scott looks up from hanging on the phone call with Stiles seeing the blonde girl chewing her bottom lip and flexing her hands anxiously.
"Hey, Mi. They're going to be okay and so is Cora. I promise." Scott says softly to the scared mage hybrid who nods and looks over seeing all of the teachers and others going into the school for the recital Miss Blake put together.
Miah walks through the doors frowning at the sudden daunting feeling in the pit of her stomach sensing something bad is going to happen here.
She looks around seeing Lydia walking towards them also anxious, "I thought you were going home?" Scott asks noticing Lydia's appearance beside Miah.
"I can't," Lydia states looking at Scott anxiously, "I don't know why I am the one that keeps finding the bodies. I don't know why Miah keeps getting those nauseating headaches but maybe if I just stopped trying to fight it. I'd find them before it happens. Maybe with enough time for someone like you to do something about it." Lydia explains.
Miah grabs a hold of the strawberry blondes arm and Scott's hand gently feeling the nauseating feeling in her stomach this time.
"You get me the time, and I'll do something about it. I swear to god, I will. That goes for Mi as well." Scott states looking at the girl who nods at him, before looking at Miah as well.
Lydia looks at Miah softly nudging her and showing her the text message from Aiden asking to see both of them.
Miah frowns confused at why the alpha twin wants to talk to her along with Lydia─ but nods at Lydia anyways seeing her looking at the teenager who's already looking at the two of them.
Not noticing Allison, Argent and Isaac arriving at the recital, Lydia and Miah walk inside the school towards where 'Aiden' messaged them to meet for that talk.
Miah frowns feeling herself grow weak all of the sudden, "I don't like this." Miah whispers gulping as a sudden chanting is heard coming from around them both.
Miah gasps as a syringe is inserted into her neck, "You both recognise it. Don't you?" Jennifer Blake asks smirking at them both.
Before Miah falls unconscious from the substance that was just injected into her system.
As the blonde hits the floor she sees the brunette older woman knock Lydia out also.
Stiles looks around remembering Scott telling him both Lydia and Miah were with him at the recital.
Scott turns to look at him also noticing the Martin's missing all of the sudden, the two of them rush out of the hall, "Lydia? Miah?" Stiles shouts.
Scott looks around the surroundings, "Mi! Lydia!" Scott shouts as well─ using his werewolf night vision he scans around the surrounding areas looking for the two girls.
"Anything?" Stiles asks noticing Isaac rushing out of the doors wondering what's happening.
"What's going on?" Isaac questions the two panicked males.
"Lydia and Miah are both gone. They were with me earlier and suddenly just disappeared." Stiles explains getting out his phone Isaac and Stiles both text the two.
Scott continues looking around the high school surroundings also using his super hearing.
"They're not answering texts. What do we do?" Stiles asks seeing the scared look on Scott's face, "Scott?" Stiles asks.
Isaac looks around as well, two sets of werewolf eyes looking around their surroundings for the two missing girls.
Miah whimpers as she comes back for her unconscious state feeling an object wrapped around her neck she flinches trying to move her hands but they're both tied down as well as her feet.
She looks around hearing Lydia cries from beside her, "What are you doing?" Miah weakly whispers.
"What's necessary. I'm still surprised none of you seem to get that. You call them 'sacrifices'. But you're not understanding the word. It's derived from the latin sacrificium. An offering to a deity. A sacred rite. A necessary evil." Jennifer explains smirking at the blonde girl.
Lydia whimpers seeing the blood coating her finger tips, "Stop." Lydia cries seeing Miah grimacing in pain from the substance in her system.
"Oh. I wish I could. But you don't know the alphas like I do." Jennifer explains not noticing Miah smirking feeling the sudden burn in both of her palms.
She looks at Jennifer behind her who's dumb enough to believe she stopped her mage abilities─ slowly figuring out the substance injected in her system was wolfsbane making her chuckles softly.
"Please. Stop." Lydia cries, "But you, Lydia? You're not a sacrifice. You're just a girl who knows too much. And you Miah, you're a special creature, for your powerful abilities. Too bad you're not going to be much of help anymore," Jennifer smirks getting the wire ready to choke and sacrifice Miah.
"Actually, girls who knew too much." Jennifer states, Miah chuckles once more before her smile is dropped feeling her magic fade away from her senses once again.
Jennifer smirks once more before leaning down closer to the blonde's ear.
"Oh. You thought I didn't know about your mage abilities as well. Think again, you're going to be powerless for a while." Jennifer chuckles.
Miah struggles from the sudden pain of the wire wrapped around her neck─ not realising what both Lydia and herself were about to do.
Jennifer looks at both of their faces before quickly wrapping the wire around Lydia's neck also.
The strawberry blonde struggles for a little bit, "Miah, Lydia. Don't!" Jennifer snarls making the two girls let out wails that send out vibrations around the whole school.
Miah soon falls unconscious once more due to exhaustion while Jennifer looks at both of them in amazement.
Lydia cries weakly not knowing the whole school heard the wail from herself and Miah.
"Unbelievable. You two have no idea what you both are. Do you?" Jennifer asks smiling at their power.
"The Wailing Women. A banshee and the fairy of destruction and chaos. Right before my eyes," Jennifer states amazed hearing Lydia whimpers.
"You're both just like me, girls. 'You look like the innocent flower, but be the serpent under it'. It's too bad, though and too late." Jennifer states beginning to tie the two of them to the chairs with duck tape.
"No. Please." Lydia cries trying to fight her way out of the seat and to make sure her cousin is okay hearing a few whimpers and grunts coming from beside her.
Miah gasps awake feeling the life being sucked out of her only for her chaos magic to burst out of her making the room glow a bring reddish-purple seeing Jennifer look at her wide eyed.
Seeing the blonde girl snarling at her with her were-coyote eyes and a ball of her chaos magic surrounding her palms.
"One last philosopher." Jennifer whispers tightening the wire around Lydia's neck.
Sheriff Stilinski suddenly makes himself known and looks at the blonde girl in amazement seeing the bright red-purple glow coming from her body and bright blue eyes.
"Drop it." Stilinski orders seeing Jennifer's smirk before she throws the knife she owns at him lodging it in the man's chest.
"No!" Miah yells out growing more furious at the woman before her.
Scott comes running into the room with Stiles following shortly behind him.
Isaac rushed back into the hall hearing the screams inside the hall seeing the body of one of the teachers lying on the stage with mistletoe leaking from her wounds.
Scott growls at Jennifer while Stilinski looks at the boy he's known for years with wide eyes now believing everything his son told him earlier during the day before all the chaos began.
Scott begins fighting the woman seeing the state Miah and Lydia are currently in─ with wounds on the sides of their heads and wire burns on their necks.
Jennifer gets the upper hand though and pushes the teenage werewolf in the directions of the stacked up chairs.
Miah whimpers in fright seeing the boy laying on the ground spitting out a decent amount of blood on the classroom floor.
Stiles comes to the entrance only for Jennifer to push the desk against the door blocking the boy's entrance.
Stilinski aims the gun at Jennifer noticing her walking towards him, "There was a girl. Years ago, we found her in the woods, her face and body slashed apart. That was you, wasn't it?" Sheriff Stilinski asks.
"Maybe I should've started with philosophers, with knowledge and strategy." Jennifer states walking closer towards the male.
He shoots her in the leg only for the wound to squelch and heal in a matter of seconds.
Jennifer groans noticing Stilinski looking at the woman with a squint.
"Healers," Jennifer starts grabbing a hold of the knife and picking the sheriff up.
Stilinski groans from the pain of the wound, "Warriors," she rips the sheriff badge of the man's chest, "Guardians," squashing and dropping the badge on the floor.
"Virgins." Jennifer says kissing the male and transforming into her true form, Miah looks at her in disgust and disbelief.
Miah uses enough of her chaos magic to move the table away from the door as the window breaks and Jennifer takes off with Sheriff Stilinski.
"Dad?" Stiles calls out seeing him missing and looking behind him at his best friend worriedly.
Before looking at Miah who groans from the pain as she lunges forwards throwing up a substance alarming to the werewolves and humans.
She looks at them in horror before collapsing once again and the ball of her magic following along shortly with it making the room grow dark.
