I got to the hospital a few minutes after the ambulance pulled in and I walked in, seeing someone get thrown from the end hallway.

I ran and saw Corey push another one of the paramedics off of him.

"Corey!" I yelled, he looked over at me and disappeared.

I saw the last belt become undone, the gurney move, and smelled him coming this way, so I grabbed at where I thought he was. "Hey, c'mon, Corey. Let me help."

"Don't tell Scott." He pleaded.

"I won't." I whispered.

Corey backed up against the next wall and went invisible as Scott and Theo came through the doors.

"Was this Corey?"

"I don't know." I replied.

"Let's go look for him." Scott said and him and Theo started down the hall.

I was walking next to Corey in the garage when we started hearing the crackling of electricity.

"Get under the ambulance." He said.

"Corey, no." I shook my head.

"We can't outrun them."

"But we can fight."

"No, we can't."

I crouched down and rolled underneath the ambulance and held my breath as I saw Corey disappear.

A pair of feet stopped right in front of him, then all of a sudden he was visible again and was on the ground.

I held back a cry, knowing he would kill me if he knew I was hear, so I listened to the doctor retreating and I crawled out from underneath, sitting on my knees next to Corey.

I let out a sob as his heart stopped, "I am so, so sorry."

"Scott!" I yelled, hoping he'd hear me. "Theo!"

The only sound to be heard was my sobs when two people came in through the doors from the main part of the hospital. Theo and Scott.

"I should've tried harder." I whispered to Corey, tears running down my face.

I felt a hand on my shoulder, I looked up and saw Scott's sympathetic eyes.

"We have to find Hayden." He said to me and Theo.

I nodded and got up, wiping my eyes.

-;-

We eventually found Liam and Hayden at Sinema but Hayden was injected with something by the Dread Doctors, so Liam, Hayden, Theo and I were on out way to the animal clinic, Scott was going to do something.

"Keep her awake, I don't think it's a good idea for her to fall asleep."

"Hayden," Liam grunted, "you have to stay awake."

"I'm so tired." She sighed.

"I know, but you can't go to sleep. How do we help her?"

"If it's like wolfsbane poisoning, then you burn it out. But I don't know a thing about mercury. Especially a kind that's been altered by them."

"Is she gonna heal?" Liam asked, shaking Hayden to keep her awake.

"She's not like us, Li." I said.

"They're more like cheap knockoffs. She might not be as strong as we are."

"Or heal like we do." Liam was on the verge of tears.

"She's not a real werewolf."

"What if we turn her into one?"

"It's an idea, but none of us can do that."

"Scott can." Liam said.

I shook my head, "And if Scott gets mercury poisoning? Or if the bite doesn't even work with her?"

"What do you mean?"

"When you bite someone with your fangs, usually you get their blood in your mouth, her blood at the moment is probably all turned to mercury- Keep her awake!" I said, seeing her eyes start closing

Liam shook her and she shifted up on his shoulder.

"I meant the other option."

"Not everyone lives through the bite, Liam. Some do; me, you, Theo, Scott, my first pack. There's quite a bit who don't make it after getting the bite."

"What if she does?"

"I don't know!"

"We're here." Theo informed.

"You two carry her in, I'll get the door open."

The rain was beating down harder as I ran to the door and grabbed the key in the loose panel.

"Alright, guys! Bring her in!" I held the door open as the walked past me, holding Hayden.

They ran past me and Liam sat in the back corner with Hayden resting on him.

I slammed the door and sat by the window, waiting for Scott to show up.

After another fifteen-twenty minutes, I heard Scott's bike show up followed by Stiles' jeep.

It was another few minutes, the rain beating down harder and harder.

"Some of us are human!" I heard Stiles yell outside and I jumped.

"What did you tell Scott?" I glared at Theo.

"The truth."

"What I'm hearing, doesn't sound like the truth, Raeken."

"McKenna, I told Scott the truth."

I started walking towards Theo slowly my stare on him.

"Stiles told you to wait. You told me that you wouldn't lie to me."

When Theo was backed all the way to the opposite wall I put my hands on his shoulder and dug my thumb claws into his skin.

"Why didn't you do one little thing he asked of you? Huh?!" I yelled as his blood leaked onto my fingers and down his jacket and he winced in pain, wrapping his hands around my wrists.

"McKenna, I think you should stop." I heard from Liam who was holding Hayden as she was breathing heavily.

I took my hands off of him then swung at him, hitting him right on the jaw.

I backed away and skulked to the front door of the animal clinic.

"Scott, just tell me how to fix this, alright. Please, just tell me, what do you want me to do?" Stiles pleaded.

"Don't worry about Malia or Lydia. We'll find them. Maybe- Maybe you should talk to your dad."

Scott came in and I jumped into the jeep.

"You okay?" Stiles and I asked at the same time.

"No." Stiles answered.

"Not really." I answered and looked at him with the bloody wrench in his hand.

"Let's go home." He said quietly and shifted into gear.

Halfway back the jeep stalled and started to rattle in the engine. Stiles took the key out of the ignition and I started to see smoke.

Stiles groaned and pulled over. He grabbed his toolbox from the backseat and I lifted the hood up.

Stiles opened the toolbox and was starting to get more and more pissed off and he threw the toolbox down the street, went over to the passenger side and grabbed the bloody wrench.

He was breathing heavily and he ended up throwing the wrench at the windshield.

I jumped and he sat down on the curb.

I sat down next to him, laying my head on his shoulder.

"You should go home." He said.

"I-I'm not leaving you out here by yourself."

"McKenna. Go home." He commanded.

I scoffed, got up and started walking home, calling Malia and leaving a message with the mechanic who usually works on Stiles' jeep.

I woke up late the next morning, got dressed and checked the texts I had from Liam, Scott, and Stiles.

Li: where are you?
Li: i think she's getting worse
Li: SHE HAS SPOTS PLS HELP
Li: can u look for her sister?
Li ?
Stiles: did you call malia?
Scott: i was wondering if liam texted you about looking for hayden's sister.

I sighed and called Stiles, hoping he was at the station with my dad.

"McKenna?"

"Yeah, are you with dad?" I asked and got up.

"No, Strauss said he's not here, but he should be back soon."

"Okay, I'll head over there soon. Call me if anything weird happens." I hung up.

I sighed and opened my bedroom door to reveal Cassie standing right outside.

"How long have you been standing there?"

My head started pounding and she answered. "Just got here, came to gave you this."

I rubbed the side of my face and she set down the vial of blood on the table next to the door.

"Are you okay?" She grabbed my arms as I almost fell.

"I just need to get to the bathroom." I breathed out, my fangs and claws growing.

"Why?"

"I cant- I can't control it." I growled

I stumbled into the bathroom and started the shower on the coldest setting and got in.

I gasped as the cold water hit me.

"What should I do?" Cassie asked.

"I'm fine." I said, my fangs and claws receding.

"Here, take this. Just take all of it." Cassie handed me the blood.

"Is that even a good idea?"

She shrugged, "Hopefully."

I opened the top and drank all of it.

I looked up at her and wiped at the blood staining the corners of my mouth.

There was a loud knock at the door so I got up and went to answer it.
