They had a little office on the outskirts of Beacon Hills; they solved crimes that the police couldn't. Being a private investigator was hard, especially if you haven't had a case in a week. Stiles' stomach growled from lack of food.

"If we don't have a case soon we're going to starve." Stiles grumbled from his desk.

"Don't talk like that, we aren't going to starve. If anything we'll have to ask my mom for food." Scott replied.

Stiles glared at Scott, he didn't want to ask Melissa for anything. She would probably convince Scott to quit the business and Stiles couldn't run it by himself, especially since Scott is usually the one that buys the food. Stiles was about to reply when a tall man with dark hair walked in, he looked like a movie star and Stiles wanted to tell him that, but the man started to talk.

"I need you to find someone for me." He replied staring into Stiles' brown eyes. "I'll pay you three times more than your normal rate if you can find her."

Stiles gave Scott thumbs up and winked. "We'll find anyone you want, especially if it's for twice our normal rate."

"I said three times your normal rate."

"Yes, that, three times are normal rate. So who is this person we are supposed to find?"

"Her name is Kate Argent, she killed my family, and I need you to track her down."

"Right, yes." Stiles said writing her name down. "And I will need your name and contact info for when we find her."

"Of course, my name is Derek Hale, and you can't call me, in case someone over hears. Find me at the old Hale house; I assume you know where that is."

Stiles stared up at him for a moment. "You're THAT Derek Hale. Yes, of course I know the old Hale house, who doesn't that lives in this town?"

Derek glared at Stiles and grunted. "That's a very sour expression. You look like you're sucking on a lemon." Stiles added.

Scott made a motion telling Stiles to zip his lips.

"I assume you can do it?" Derek asked.

"Of course, we are investigators after all. But we are sort of broke could you pay us a little now?"

"I can pay you half now and half when I have her."

"That's perfect, now are you paying in cash or credit?"

Derek handed him a wad of cash, which made Stiles' mouth drop open a little and Derek half smirked at him, Stiles took the cash counting it.

"We'll find her within the week."

Scott looked horrified, and Stiles just smiled at him.

"Alright, find me when you have something."

"Will do, we will find you when we have many something's."

Derek walked out of the office and Stiles watched until he got into his car then spun around to face Scott. He almost tripped over his chair trying to show Scott the cash.

"6,000ed Dollars just to find someone and this isn't all of it."

"How are we supposed to find someone within a week?"

"With our super awesome powers of investigation."

Scott sighed, "Can we go get something to eat now?"

"Hell to the yes." Stiles replied grabbing his coat and walking out the door.
