MIAH, SCOTT and Stiles stand alongside Sheriff Stilinski watching the man nervously pace due to his nerves for his upcoming date with Natalie─ Miah's aunt.

The blonde mage hybrid is the only one who knows alongside Lydia about the aunt going on a date with the man.

"Oh. I should've got a haircut." Stilinski groans, "Well... you know. Someone your age should be happy you still have hair to cut!" Stiles shrugs.

"I think you look great." Scott states with a smile, "Me too." Miah nods looking at the man.

"Well... thank you, son-I-should-have-had and darling Miah!" Stilinski mutters looking at his son.

"Oh. What the hell am I doing? This is a terrible idea." Stilinski murmurs under his breath.

"What? Dad. Dad, it's one date, okay? The town of Beacon Hills won't implode while you're out with one woman... or man." Stiles says hearing Miah chuckle.

"It's a woman, Stiles." Stilinski utters looking at the boy, "Okay." Stiles responds with a nod.

"A very beautiful woman." Stilinski states smiling at Miah who smirks at him knowing exactly who the beautiful woman is.

"What beautiful woman... by the way?" Stiles wonders, "None of your business. Either of you." Stilinski orders looking at both the boys who share a look of confusion.

Before facing the blonde who shrugs with a little smile on her face, "I want to know and since Mims knows. We should be able to as well." Stiles rants.

Miah turns facing the back of the sheriff station where Jordan and Deputy Clark are escorting Donovan─ someone who gets arrested frequently to the transport van outside.

"Stilinski! Stilinski! I'm going to kill you!" Donovan exclaims angrily.

"Donovan, if you think that shocks me. Remember it was well-documented in your Anger Expression Inventory," Stilinski states before looking at the deputies holding him tightly.

"Deputies... escort the prisoner out." Stilinski orders gently, "I'm not angry... like I'm gonna throw a brick through your window. I'm angry... like I'm going to find you. I'm going to get a knife... and I'm going to stab you with it until you're dead and when you look at me and you ask, "why?". Remember right now. Because this is why." Donovan snaps.

Miah raises her brows in shock sharing a mutual look with Scott and Stiles beside her.

"Wow. That was awesome. That was awesome... that was great. Can we do one more? Give us another one. Maybe like Christopher Walken this time, you know? Okay, you know what? It's fine. You'll have plenty of time to work on it when you're in your tiny, little cell. You know... just stuck there. Forever." Stiles taunts.

Donovan scoffs lunging himself towards the four standing in the entrance way of Stilinski's office.

"Get him out of here!" Stilinski shouts protectively seeing the way Stiles and Scott jump to protect him and Scott pushing Miah behind him also.

After deputies Parrish and Clark lead Donovan outside to the transport van.

Miah places her hand on Scott's bicep calmly, "What the hell's an Anger Expression Inventory?" Scott questions confused.

"It's a test you take when you're applying to become a deputy." Stiles explains shocking the couple.

"That guy wanted to be a cop?" Miah asks alarmed, "At least now... he's getting the full law enforcement experience." Stiles responds.

Miah grabs her phone from the hoodie she's wearing seeing Lydia's text explaining that Malia, Kira and herself are outside and ready.

"Anyways, I've gotta go. Lydia and the girls are waiting for me outside." Miah says looking at Scott who nods and kisses her as a farewell.

Miah smiles tapping Stiles's arm before leaving the police station and getting into the back of the vehicle seeing Kira in the backseat with her.

"Hey." Miah greets putting on the seatbelt and gesturing for them to pull out of the parking lot.

"Hey." all three girls greet simultaneously happy to see the blonde girl joining them.

The four girls drive slowly on the highway leading into Beacon Hills planning for Malia to practice driving for a few hours.

"Okay. Hands on the wheel at 10:00 and 2:00." Kira explains, "Actually, the recommended position is now 9:00 and 3:00. At 10:00 and 2:00... a deployed airbag could break your thumbs." Lydia states.

"Mine would heal." Malia shrugs looking at the Martin cousins and Kira in the backseat.

"Save your strength! And try not to destroy your beautiful new car. 9:00 and 3:00." Miah suggests with a smile.

Malia listens placing her hands on the steering wheel and picking up the pace on the road ahead of them.

"All right. Just ease into it. Good, good. Okay... there you go." Kira nods using relaxed hand motions.

"Please shut up." Malia demands trying to focus on the road, "No problem. Shutting up." Kira confirms closing her mouth.

Miah looks at the girl with a smirk on her face frowning seeing Malia going off the road.

"Uh, other way. Other way." Kira voices nervously, "Mal?" Miah mumbles also starting to panic seeing an incoming tree ahead of them.

"Uh... other way." Kira suggests motioning to the road, "We are now off the road. This is not the road." Lydia mutters sharing a look with her cousin who's frowning in confusion feeling a little off all of the sudden.

"Other way. Malia, please go the other way." Kira pleads seeing the tree getting closer, "What is that? What is beeping?" Malia questions overwhelmed.

"The car's telling you not to run into the tree, turn the wheel! Malia!" Miah exclaims alarmed and calming down once Malia pulls back onto the road and away from the tree.

"And try to stay on the actual road." Kira recommends while Malia turns the wheel starting to send them into circles, "Okay, sure. Uh this is called a U-turn." Miah says gently.

"You said turn the wheel!" Malia responds with a shrug looking at Miah in the mirror seeing her grimacing suddenly holding onto her head.

Miah tunes everything out around her focusing on the agonising pain she's currently feeling before looking up seeing Malia now driving towards downtown.

Lydia looks behind her seat at Miah sharing the same expression at her now more determined that they're going to find a body in the upcoming minutes.

Malia parks her vehicle at the start of the tunnel leading into downtown Beacon Hills getting out alongside Miah and Lydia who are looking at the crashed transport van and bodies surrounding it except for the one injured man reaching towards them bloodied.

"Call 911." Lydia demands seeing Miah rush towards the injured officer and placing her hands firmly on his wounds trying to save his life and waiting for the sheriff and his deputies to arrive.

"You're going to be fine." Miah mumbles starring at the officer who gasps and gurgles on his own blood from the said wounds.

Eventually, after Miah called Scott who happened to still be with Stiles and Isaac, they arrive with Stilinski and the other deputies.

"Are you okay? Mims?" Isaac quizzes seeing Miah staring at the blood on the ground─ the officer is alive thanks to her tending to his wounds.

"Yeah. I'm fine." Miah whispers zoning in and out with a frown before feeling hands gently placing themselves on her cheekbones looking her over.

"Mi, baby. Are you sure?" Scott questions, Miah nods confirming what she said.

Moving out of the way for the forensics to do their job now stood beside Lydia answering the deputies questions.

Scott rushes off trying to find Donovan─ not before letting Miah know where his running off to.

After a while of answering questions the deputies motion for them to walk over to Stilinski, seeing the man waving them over.

Miah looks around confused inhaling Theo's scent seeing him hiding behind a pilar smirking at her since she remains quiet and doesn't mention anything about him being at the crime scene.

Parrish's police radio chirps from where the man is standing beside Miah, "Scott... is that you?" Parrish questions speaking into the radio.

"Yeah. I found Donovan. He's completely freaked out. He keeps saying some name." Scott explains through the radio, "What name?" Stilinski questions using his own radio.

Miah and Isaac both look at Stiles hearing him mumble Theo's name, "Tracy. He keeps saying 'Tracy'." Scott responds, "Tracy who?" Stilinski quizzes confused.

"Stewart." Lydia utters in realisation sharing a mutual look with Miah.

"Tracy Stewart." Miah mutters saying Tracy's full name so the Sheriff knows who to look out for.

Returning back to her apartment with Scott holding her hand gently, Miah sighs happily since they're alone. Minus Joel, Mack and River sleeping in their own rooms.

Scott decided to make sure Miah was actually doing okay and wasn't lying for everyone's sake around her, the blonde explained it was just a shock to her system.

✹

THE NEXT day Miah, Scott and the others stand together beside one of the school buses since they need to attend school for the day minus the chaos happening around them.

"Tracy wasn't just having trouble sleeping. It was a real disorder. It was night terrors." Lydia explains standing beside Miah and Scott.

"Well... now she's the night terror. Especially since no one can find her." Stiles mumbles with Malia standing beside him alongside Isaac.

"Okay. I know we're all tired and miserable. Except for you." Scott states facing Mason who beams with excitement.

"Oh. I'm sorry. This is all just mind-blowing." Mason voices with a smile.

"You're the fairy of destruction and chaos! I don't even know what that is! And you. You're a kitsune!" Mason utters looking at Miah and Kira who smile at him.

"I'm still learning." Kira responds awkwardly, "Me too." Miah confirms pointing at Kira agreeing with what she just said about them learning about their supernatural abilities.

"Liam, we said you could tell him. Not invite him to the inner circle!" Stiles mutters looking at Isaac who looks at Liam annoyed.

"Uh. I'm in the inner circle?" Mason questions shocked, "No!" Isaac, Stiles and Liam simultaneously respond.

Miah chuckles seeing Mason's expression fade a little bit before growing again at the thought of having supernatural friends.

"Guys. Look... back to Tracy. She's just one lone wolf. We can find her." Scott suggests facing the others while holding Miah close to his chest inhaling her perfume he loves so much.

"One lone. Serial-killing wolf." Malia voices, "Uh... she only killed one person, you know? The other two were mauled." Isaac says with a wince hearing how it sounded.

"All right. What do we do when we catch her?" Stiles quizzes, "I say we put her down." Malia utters sharing a look with everyone else.

Miah nods biting her lower lip seeing Mason nodding at everything they just said with a wide eyed expression.

"Intense." Mason says receiving raised eyebrows from Liam, Stiles and Isaac.

"Guys. Let's concentrate on catching her first. We'll figure out the rest later." Scott states lacing his fingers with Miah's while the pack walk into the school towards their next class to start off the day.

Miah sits beside Scott in AP Biology writing notes down in her notebook while Mrs Finch hands out the tests from last week.

"Nice to see where your priorities are, Scott." Mrs Finch states placing his test on the table beside him with the marking score of eighty-six.

Miah looks at him impressed and smiles happily at him ignoring the nagging feeling to turn around and look at Theo.

"Since you have such a good grasp of the subject. How about you lead us in a review of last night's reading?" Mrs Finch suggests looking at the male who gulps nervously since he didn't get the chance to study.

"Uh... sure." Scott mumbles opening his textbook hoping to find the page.

Miah looks up from writing notes seeing Liam waving both her and Scott down and to get out of class, "Scott?" Mrs Finch frowns.

"Sorry... just looking for the page." Scott responds glancing at Miah for a few seconds.

Scott and Miah frown seeing the waving hand motion coming from the Dunbar boy hearing him sigh in frustration.

"Scott?" Mrs Finch questions again, "Yeah. One sec, sorry." Scott responds still frowning at Liam, "Scott." Mrs Finch warns lowly.

Miah discreetly holds a note in front of him telling him to motion for Liam to whisper the problem to them.

Scott nods reaching up and tapping his ear gesturing for Liam to explain what's going on like Miah suggested.

"She's here. She's in history class right now... Tracy, she's here." Liam whispers warning both of them, unaware of Theo listening in to what they're discussing secretly.

Miah turns around glaring at the male sensing the eavesdropping happening.

Miah looks away from Theo stopping his glaring hearing the fire alarm blaring around the school.

Miah and Scott hurry out of the class towards Mr Yukimura's class since Tracy's there.

Miah, Liam and Isaac follow Scott into the classroom, Miah sends a nervous look at Mr Yukimura who now sees the girl at the back of his class alongside the new girl Hayden.

Tracy thrusts forward latching onto Hayden's forearm drawing blood.

"Tracy, hey," Scott says gently stepping closer to the brunette while Miah frowns hearing electronic hissing around her.

"Tracy. Tracy." Scott mumbles looking at Miah who's now stood beside him.

"Tracy... let go. Tracy!" Miah voices ignoring the sounds she's hearing surrounding her and looking at the girl staring at both herself and Scott breathing heavily.

"Hey... you're hurting me." Hayden whimpers while blood drips from the wound on her arm, "Tracy, let her go." Scott demands.

Tracy lets go of Hayden's arm while Miah gently guides Hayden away from her incase of an attack.

"They're coming. They're coming for all of us." Tracy murmurs before falling on the ground with a silver liquid flowing out of her mouth.

Miah gasps stepping away from the girl stunned at the sight seeing the liquid pooling around her is mercury.

Miah rushes out of the classroom trying to find Lydia and Kira with Liam's behind her struggling to keep up with her fast pace since the boys and Malia rushed Tracy out of the school with the help of Mr Yukimura all agreeing to go one place.

"They're taking her to the animal clinic?" Kira quizzes meeting Miah and a breathless Liam around the corner in the corridor.

"Yeah. To see if Deaton can figure out what's wrong with her." Liam explains after catching his breath and looking at Miah impressed by her speed.

"What's wrong with her is that she killed two people. Her father... and according to Parrish... her psychiatrist." Miah whispers looking at her cousin and then Kira and Liam who sigh.

"Isn't there anyone else we can talk to? Does she still have her mom? Any family?" Kira questions.

"Alpha. If she's a werewolf. She has an alpha, right? Anyone know if a new one's moved into Beacon Hills?" Lydia asks.

"No. But there's an old one. One of the oldest. We know her." Kira states looking at Liam who huffs annoyed, "And her pack." Liam responds looking at the three girls.

Eventually, they make the plan for Liam and Mason to go talk to Brett to see if Satomi has turned anyone recently.

Miah, Lydia and Kira will go to the Stewart house to try and figure out what's happening with Tracy.

"Hold on... isn't this like a crime scene or something?" Kira asks nervously while standing outside Tracy's bedroom.

"No." Lydia responds opening the bedroom door seeing crime scene tape surrounding certain areas.

"Maybe. Don't worry about it." Miah states with a shrug, "Okay. So what are we looking for?" Kira quizzes.

"I'm not sure. I'm mostly just following a feeling." Lydia responds, "Yeah. Same here." Miah explains looking around the bedroom.

"Both of your feelings usually lead to dead bodies." Kira says while Lydia turns the lamp on the bedside table on.

"Well... let us know if you find one." Miah suggests smirking at the look of disbelief on Kira's face.

Miah and Lydia continue looking around the bedroom while Kira lifts one of the boxes from under the bed up and places it on the bed looking inside seeing a dreamcatcher and a card.

"Hey. Look at this. 'Remember, Tracy-Bear... it only works if you believe it. Hope this helps. Love, Dad'. This is beyond depressing." Kira mumbles after reading the card.

"He was just trying to help her." Miah mumbles sadly looking at the dreamcatcher.

"Why would she go after him like that?" Kira questions looking at the Martin girls glumly.

"I guess she wasn't in control of herself." Lydia responds, "But it wasn't even a full moon." Kira says confused.

"Maybe a werewolf with night terrors is worse than a..." Lydia voices cutting herself off looking at the dreamcatcher Miah's holding.

"You know, there are cases of people you who accidentally murdered their entire family while in a night terror. They had no idea what they were doing. It's called 'homicidal somnambulism'." Lydia explains.

"So, if Tracy's killing people she doesn't really want to kill. She might not actually be awake." Kira suggests.

Miah sucks in a deep breath, "She's still in a night terror." Miah reveals staring ahead feeling bad for the Stewart girl.

"Okay. Wait a second... her dad was just trying to help her, right?" Kira says pacing the bedroom.

"So was her psychiatrist." Miah responds, "And maybe that's why she was at the school!" Kira states standing behind Miah and Lydia.

"She was looking for someone else who was just trying to help?" Lydia quizzes.

"Yeah. And... oh! Maybe it was you?" Kira suggests seeing Lydia turn towards her looking at her with a scowl.

"Or not. Since that would mean she wants to kill you." Kira mumbles awkwardly.

"No. You're right. I was trying to help. But... so was someone else. My mother. What if Tracy went to the school looking for her?" Lydia asks panicked sharing a look with Miah seeing her grabbing her phone and getting ready to run out of the house.

"Where is she now?" Kira wonders, "On a date." Lydia responds looking at Miah who nods.

"Come on! Let's go!" Miah orders not even hesitating running out of the house towards her vehicle.

Lydia and Kira meet her getting into it and driving off towards the sheriff station hoping they aren't too late in saving their mother and aunt.

Arriving at the sheriff station, Lydia and Miah run into the building seeing Natalie standing in front of the entrance.

"Aunt Nat!" Miah exclaims capturing the woman's attention.

"Mom! She's coming. Tracy's coming for you." Lydia exclaims standing beside Miah with Kira behind them.

"What? What do you mean, 'for me?'" Natalie asks confused.

Miah looks up at the roof as do Kira and Lydia who see Tracy hissing at them flashing her kanima-werewolf eyes at them releasing a snarling growl.

Immediately launching herself at Miah who immediately sends a ball of magic knocking her to the ground.

Stilinski opens fire seeing Miah yet again being threatened by another supernatural being.

"No!" Miah exclaims seeing Stilinski get knocked down onto the ground paralysed from the venom.

Kira immediately unshackles her sword swinging it around blocking Tracy's blows.

"Miah! Kira! Look out!" Stilinski shouts seeing Tracy blackflip off one of the tables.

Miah stands directly in front of Lydia protecting her knowing that her cousin can't heal as good as she can, "Mom, run! Run!" Lydia exclaims.

Miah sends another ball of her chaos magic towards the kanima who snarls at her sending her into one of the nearby walls with a startled grunt.

"Go! Aunt Nat! Now!" Miah whimpers holding onto her injured hand since the blow to the door winded her.

Natalie runs towards the basement leaving Miah and Lydia sighing in relief.

Tracy snarls sending her tail into Miah and Lydia's sides who grunt and scream due to the pain.

Miah looks down at the wound seeing it close up slowly and Lydia falling to the ground holding onto her bloodied side in pain.

"Miah! Lydia!" Natalie shuts seeing her niece and daughter get injured.

"Come on!" Miah urges helping Lydia into the office away from the attack seeing Kira's fox taking over.

Miah quickly mutters something under her breath sending a flash of her chaos magic into the kitsune's sword making the power even more stronger immediately cutting off the girls tail.

"Hey. You stay awake for me!" Miah exclaims seeing how much trauma Lydia's body has on itself right now.

"Are you... are you okay?" Lydia cries out seeing Miah's side covered in blood from the wound.

"I'm fine. Right now... you're not and I need you to fight okay?" Miah exclaims seeing Lydia whimper and nod.

Miah sighs immediately putting force on the wound and allowing her chaos magic to flow out of her hands stopping the bleeding for now and looking up at the strawberry blonde tearfully seeing how sweaty both of them have got due to the bloodied wounds.

"My magic's stopping the bleeding for now." Miah mumbles swallowing due to the pain radiating through her torso seeing the cut healed on the outside but not from the inside.

Malia runs into the sheriff station seeing the blood on the floor and Stilinski lying on the floor.

"Careful." Stilinski whispers while Kira and Miah hold onto Lydia's side since the bleeding has started again only worse due to Miah's fatigue state also.

"Malia." Lydia weakly calls out from her laid out position in Miah's lap.

"Lydia? Miah?" Malia questions seeing the wounds on both of them and how bad Lydia's currently bleeding on the floor.

"Okay. Hey, it's not as bad as it looks. Malia, Listen... Tracy, she thinks... she thinks she's asleep. She thinks she's dreaming... it's a night terror." Lydia softly explains through swallowing due to the pain.

"I... I don't know what that..." Malia says nervously.

"She's not dreaming. She's not asleep... get her to understand." Miah explains with a wince but doesn't let go of holding pressure on Lydia's wound.

Miah looks at Kira with tears in her eyes seeing how bad her cousins condition worsens and if she doesn't get help soon she'll bleed out.

"Malia. Basement. They're in the basement." Stilinski explains in a whisper, "'They?'" Malia questions.

"Tracy. And my mother." Lydia explains gasping due to Miah putting more pressure on the wound with her magic again slowing the bleeding down.

"No. You... you're weak too." Lydia mumbles seeing Miah's sweaty forehead.

"I'm fine Lyds. Just stay still for me." Miah responds using the sleeve of the hoodie she's wearing to wipe her sweaty forehead.

Miah grimaces feeling the sudden sensation of death inhaling and exhaling through the pain whimpering holding onto her cousin tightly hoping she'll make it.
