"You had better be doing your homework right now," Kate said, sitting on her bed cross-legged as she looked through some papers.

"Don't worry, I am," Zach told her, typing away on his laptop, finishing up some maths.

"Good, well I'm going to head up to Allison's in a minute, so don't try and slack off while I'm gone," Kate told him, getting up to go to the bathroom.

"I won't," he assured her, waiting for her to close the door behind her. Once she had, he jumped up from his bed and quickly bolted out of the room, quickly making his way over to the stairs to go up to the second floor. He was soon at Allison's door and was opening it, only to find Allison lying on top of a shirtless Scott.

"What in the hell are you doing?" Allison whispered, jumping off of the bed to confront him, leaving Scott lying on the bed, panting for air.

"I thought that you should know auntie is coming up to visit," Zach told her, walking back to the door to look outside.

"Allison?" Kate called as she got to the top of the stairs nearby.

"Hide, now!" Zach ordered, picking up Scott's shirt and throwing it to him as Allison pulled him off the bed, shoving him into the closet. Whilst Allison pulled the straps of her bra back up, Zach sat down on the bed, waiting for Kate to enter.

"Hey, what's up?" Kate greeted, walking into the room.

"Just doing homework, sending emails," Allison replied, sitting down at her desk where her computer was waiting to be used.

"Emailing the boyfriend?" Kate teased, looking at Zach suspiciously, as he smiled back.

"No, of course not. I'm emailing PETA about how my crazed nut of a father gunned down an innocent mountain lion in the school parking lot," Allison replied, typing away at her keyboard.

"And that wouldn't have anything to do with the fact that you're grounded and you can't see Scott?" Kate asked, looking over all of Allison's photo's one by one.

"I'm not going to be one of those whiny teenagers who looks at her father and says 'I hate you and I wish you were dead'," Allison replied matter-of-factly.

"But?" Kate asked, putting down a photo frame.

"But…" Allison trailed off, turning back to her screen.

"You hate him and wish he were dead," Zach finished, laughing along with the two girls.

"And what are you doing up here?" Kate questioned, turning to face Zach.

"She texted me while I was working, saying she needed help with her project, so I came running," Zach replied, keeping a straight face the entire time.

"And what is the project?' Kate asked, turning to Allison to confirm his story.

"I'm doing a history project, which involves a report, detailing my own family history. So I thought, given that Zach is a part of my family, I could ask him about anything he knows," Allison said, winking at Zach.

"So far, I've been useless," Zach admitted, walking over to lean on Allison's chair.

"Is it specific to your family?" Kate asked, eyeing Zach suspiciously as she walked over to Allison's other side.

"Why, do you have something?" Allison asked, glancing over at the nearby closet.

"Type this in. 'La Bête du Gévaudan'," Kate said, watching Allison do as she was told.

"I think I remember you talking about this before Kate," Zach said, looking through the webpage as Allison opened it, nodding his head.

"It's an old French legend that, believe it or not, has something to do with your family," Kate told her, as Zach nodded his head in understanding.

"In 1766 in a province of Ozair, La Bête killed over a hundred people'" Allison read out loud, petering out as she read the last bit.

"Mysterious animal attacks just like a certain town called Beacon Hills," Kate pointed out.

"So what was it?" Allison asked, looking back at the screen.

"Nobody knows for sure, but we can tell you one thing. It wasn't a mountain lion," Kate replied, realisation dawning on Allison. "What's it look like to you?"

"It looks like…" Allison trailed off, not sure how to describe it.

"…a wolf," Zach finished, Kate nodding her head in agreement.

"Well, I'll leave you two to it then. Don't take too long, you have your own work to get onto," Kate told Zach, exiting the room, and closing the door behind her, allowing Allison and Zach to let out a sigh of relief as Allison walked over to let Scott out of the closet.

"So, you're finally coming out of the closet Scott?" Zach asked, turning around to face him, a smirk on his face.

"You wish," Scott chuckled, slipping his shirt over his head as he picked up his jumper to put back on as well.

"You better get going now, before any more relatives decided to check up on me," Allison suggested, leading Scott over to the window.

"See you at school tomorrow Scott," Zach said, waving as Scott jumped out the window. Allison waved at Scott as he vanished from view, turning around to face her cousin.

"So, how many favours do I owe you now?" she asked, walking back over to sit at her desk.

"By my count, at least five," Zach replied, smiling at her as he sat down on the bed.

"You can go now," she said, shooing him out of the room.

"But I thought you needed help on your project?" he complained, whimpering a little as he was pushed out of the room.

"Go do your own homework idiot," she laughed, slamming the door in his face.

"Spoiled sport."


Sorry that this is such a short chapter, I guess this is more of an introduction into the episode than anything, hopefully the small bits of banter make up for the short length :P

I hope you all enjoyed the chapter and are ready for more to come ^_^

I also thought I would be nice and give you one more chapter to read before I go to sleep, since I'm feeling generous at the moment :3

Farewell for now guys :D
