"Where are they, is Braeden okay?" Kelly's eyes got dark.

"Yeah everyone's fine but we have to go to Dereck's now."

They started out the door when Lydia spoke. "Wait I have to change."

"Wha...no. You're staying here." Stiles grabbed her hand. "You still need to heal."

"I'm not staying here alone just to wait for someone to come and kill me."

"She's right, we need everyone." Scott looked at Stiles.

Stiles rubbed the back of his neck.

"Right, so I'm going." She started to pull the IV from her arm wincing at the pain.

"Hey, stop." Stiles put an arm around her waist. "Let me help." He took the pain from her as she pulled it out and rushed to put a bandage on as if losing a single drop of blood would cause her to drop dead right were she stood. "You okay?"

"I will be once I regain circulation in my hand." She nodded to how hard his grip was on her arm.

"Sorry." He let her go and she went to the bathroom to change.

Dereck waited for them outside and drove everyone back to his loft.

"Alright. This is where this ends. No more coming after us. So what do we know?" Dereck looked around.

Everyone looked at Kelly. "Why's everyone looking at me?" She raised an eyebrow. She wouldn't have asked so openly but spending time with Lydia and Stiles helped with her confidence.

"Because." Scott's eyebrows furrowed. "You were a prisoner of theirs."

"I still say don't trust her. Could be working for them." Malia glared at her hearing the clink of a gun and then the cold steel against the side of her head.

"Say that again and we'll be scooping your brains up with a shovel." Braeden cocked her shotgun.

"Dereck. Do something." Malia looked at him.

He sighed and put a hand on Braeden's gun lowering it away from Malia's head. "Come on Brae, we don't need any disrest within. Not right now."

"What, that's it? Hit her, bite her, kill her, something. I'm your cousin. Family first." Malia complained.

"Peter was my uncle, and he's tried to kill me on multiple ocasions. As far as I'm concerned, family means nothing. Now," He turned to Kelly. "what do we know?"

"When I was there, I got out because a guy in the office messed up and openned my cage. The Siprian Society always stay in one room when they're there."

"How many creatures do they have there already?" Stiles asked.

"Thousands."

"So if we get inside we wait for them to get there and open every cage using the crowd as cover to get close."

"You can't get inside, the facility is made of mountain ash. You'll only get in if they want you to get in."

"Okay, okay. So how do we get in?"

"Get captured." Stiles looked around. "If you all get captured then someone breaks in to cut the security and open the cages."

"Stiles, genius. We all get caught and Braeden break's in to shut off the alarm."

"Wait whoa, I'm not comfortable being locked in a cage."

"What do you mean, it's your plan."

"Yea, well now it's a stupid plan."

"Stiles, don't worry. Have I ever let you down before?" Braeden asked.

"Well you did threaten to kill Scott before."

"I almost died saving Isaac's life."

"True."

"Enough of Stiles' paranoid bullshit. This is the plan." Dereck got restless.

"What's wrong with you?"

"These people just tried to kill us. And I'm ready to return the favor."

"Okay." Scott said. "We leave at dawn. We'll get caught trying to sneak in and then Braeden releases us. Anyone have any questions about what they have to do?"

"Sounds like a bad cowboy movie: We leave at dawn ." Stiles had the worst cowboy impression ever. Everyone glared at him. "Alright, sorry. Just trying to lighten the mood. I can't stand this smell."

"What smell?" Lydia asked.

"It's, tention, anxiety, fear, and anger all wrapped in one."

Dereck pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed.

"How will we find each other? The creatures are kept in seperate places." Kira looked around.

"Shit." Scott looked around. "Wait, Kelly. Can you draw out a map of the cells and halls."

"Can't, when I was there they kept me in a cage and when I escaped I just ran aimlessly around the halls until I found the exit." She answered.

"So back to square one." Liam sighed.

"No." Dereck spoke, a controlled anger coating his voice. "Enough, we stick to the plan, and whoever finds them first kill them."

"We don't kill people." Scott spoke.

Stiles felt a stab of pain in his stomach when Scott said that. He caught a wave of memories, seeing Ana with his claws through her neck. Then he saw Ana's beta that he had beaten to a bloody mess and nearly killed. Lastly he saw the man in the hospital he had almost killed. The man he would've killed if not for Kelly. Thank God she was there.

"What if they're trying to kill us?" Malia asked.

"Then we do what we can to keep them from killing us." Scott answered.

"What if these aren't people?" Lydia asked and the entire atmosphere in the room seemed to darken.

Everyones skin crawled at the thought. No one knew what to expect when they got there, even Kelly didn't fully know what she would see there.

"Let's hope that's not the case." Scott answered. "We should probably all get some rest. We're gonna stay here tonight incase they decide to attack us again."

That wasn't the case. They spent the next ten hours hanging out. By eleven o'clock they'd began to lay down. Derrek had brought out some extra blankets for everyone. Scott and Kira laid together as well as Stiles and Lydia. Kelly was up stairs in her room, Liam laid across from Scott and Kira, Mason was on the floor near Liam, and Derrek and Braeden were up in their room.

Lydia checked her phone. 3:30am. She looked over at Stiles who was sleeping soundly with an arm over her. She slowly slid from underneath him, making sure not to wake him. One out she tiptoed to the balcony door and openned it stepping out for some fresh air but to her suprise finding Kelly already there.

"Oh, hey." Kelly smiled as she looked up from her spot on the balcony edge that her feet currently dangled over.

"Hey, I didn't think anyone else was out here." Lydia leaned against the balcony wall next to Kelly.

"You're nervous?" Kelly said as if she just figured it out.

"Well yeah, why wouldn't I be?"

"You don't really seem like the nervous type."

"Well we are a few hours away from risking our lives."

"There is that." They both let out a laugh.

Lydia stopped abruptly noticing that Kelly's laugh slowly turned into a cry.

"What's wrong?" Lydia asked, sincerity coloring her tone.

"I'm so scared." Was all Kelly could choke out.

Lydia took her hand and helped her down from her seat at the edge of the balcony before hugging her gently. "Hey... hey listen to me." Lydia stepped back enough to make eye contact. "We are gonna be fine. Everyone is gonna be fine."

"But how do you know?"

"Because, we're still here. We've faught so many battles with so many villians and we're still here, protecting Beacon Hills."

"But you guys haven't seen the worst of the Siprian Society, I've seen what they do."

"And they haven't seen what we can do. We're a strong pack. We have Liam, Kira, Derrek."

"What about Scott and Stiles."

"Yes... yes, of course. Scott and Stiles, those two together can stand against anything. Even Derrek isn't a match for them. They've saved countless lives and will save countless more." Lydia at some point had began to tear up with Kelly. "That's how I know we're gonna be alright." She looked into the beta's eyes.

Kelly nodded her head, inky black curles bouncing from side. They hugged again, both of them using this to calm down. The two girls finally composed themselves wiping away the last of their tears.

"Thank you." Kelly said. "For everything."

"Of course." Lydia dismissed. "It's what we do. Now come on, we should get some sleep."

They proceeded inside splitting apart at the stairs as Kelly went up to her room and Lydia returned to her spot with Stiles.

Lydia slowly slid underneath the blanket seeing that Stiles hadn't moved an inch since she left. She laid on her side facing away from him. It was a surprise when his arms surrounded her and his lips pressed against the back of her neck. She turned her body over to face his smiling face.

"That's my girl." He sighed with his eyes closed all the while. He didn't need to see Lydia to know she was smiling and for that reason, so was he.
