The lights turn on just in time for Isaac to watch Scott fall to his knees. "Is she . .?
Derek kneels down and shakes his head, "She was alive when Kali and I passed the gym."
Isaac shakily gets up, walks over to Scott and offers him a hand to help him up. Scott takes it and falls into Isaac's arms; hot, silent tears streaming down his face. "I'm going to get us out of here." He whispers into Isaac's neck.
Before anybody could move Scott had lunged for the door and was banging on it furiously, screaming at the top of his lungs. "Open this god damn door right now!"
Derek and Isaac each grab an arm and drag him to the middle of the small room where Scott collapses into a sobbing lump. "She's probably dead." He moans, wrapping his arms around his stomach as if to fold into himself.
Isaac pulls him onto his lap and kisses his forehead, "You don't know for sure," he says soothingly.
Scott shudders, "Even if she is alive, Isaac, Deucalion has her. And if he has her, well, she's probably dead by now." Isaac begins to say something but Scott cuts him off, "Derek, what do you think?"
Derek looks at the floor, "You don't want to know what I think, Scott."
"What am I supposed to do now?" Scott sniffles.
The door creaks open slightly, "Go see Deucalion," a voice whispers. "He's expecting you."
The three wolves look at each other before scrambling for the exit at the same time. Scott keeps going; heading for the gym while Isaac and Derek take a quick breather. "We should probably go after Scott now." Derek mumbles.
"Why so hesitant?" Isaac whispers as they start walking.
"It's probably a trap." Derek says.
Isaac laughs, "Derek, we all know that it's a trap, so tell me the real reason."
Derek sighs and lets a few tears fall down his cheeks, "Stiles and Allison are in there as well. Them, along with Scott's mom, are the next three sacrifices." Derek pauses, "I know they're dead by now."
Isaac gasps and quickens his pace to a run, "Why didn't you tell us this sooner?"
"You saw how he reacted to his mom, Isaac. If I told him his best friend and ex-girlfriend were in there as well he would have been uncontrollable. And that's before knowing about them being sacrifices." Derek snaps.
Isaac flinches when he says 'girlfriend' but then nods. "Okay, you're right, but-"
They come to a stop at the fully open gym doors. The scene is not what Isaac had expected; Stiles and Allison have their hands tied and are dangling from the rims of opposite basketball nets. Stiles's eyes light up when he sees the two of them come in; his shirt is a little red but he seems otherwise unharmed. Allison, however, is unconscious and covered in blood. Isaac's eyes come to rest on Scott last; this image breaks his heart the most. Scott is holding his mom's limp body against his chest while he screams insults at Deucalion.
"Well, it's nice for you two to finally show up." Deucalion says, as if on cue, when Isaac and Derek walk in. Scott's head turns towards them and, seeing his heartbroken, hopeless expression, Isaac bolts over to him.
"What do you want Douche-alion?" Derek says.
Deucalion shrugs as if he didn't hear the insult, "I just want my last sacrifices to be made and then I'll be on my way." He says evenly.
"Then why do you need us here?" Isaac questions.
Deucalion laughs, "Don't you see little boy, once I kill Stiles, you, Scott and Derek are the last three sacrifices."
Scott's head snaps up, "You're going to kill us?"
Deucalion grins menacingly, "I think I just made that very clear."
On a sudden burst of angry energy Scott bolts for the alpha; Isaac hot on his heels. Judging by the growl behind him Isaac knows that Derek is ready for a fight as well. A new growl joins in and Isaac turns to see Kali jump from the rafters on the roof and land on Derek; the two roll across the floor and start taking swipes at each other.
Isaac is yanked sharply to the left as the mega-twin grabs him. Isaac punches their jaw and takes the moment of surprise to escape their grip and land another punch in the stomach. Furious snarls fill Isaac's ears but he continues fighting until he's picked up by Ennis and thrown into the bleachers. Isaac's world goes black.
