"What?" Scott answers making Buffy sigh in relief as she and Stiles exit class.
Stiles turns to her "You get him?"

She nods and the two quickly walk over to a nearby wall holding the phone in-between them so they could both hear.

"Finally!" Stiles exclaims, "Have you been getting any of our texts?"
"Yeah, like all nine million of them...each."

Buffy rolls her eyes "Scott, we have a problem. Jackson is back he's all pale and gross, plus that with the dead guy and Lydia being hyped on pills, we need back up."
"Okay I'll deal with it later!" He exclaims before hanging up on them.

Buffy freezes and stares at her phone before glancing at Stiles "Did he just-?"
Stiles nods "I'm gonna kill him. So what now?"

Buffy groans before pausing as an idea comes to her "Stiles, Lydia hung up on me that night to take selfies..."
Stiles just stares at her in confusion "So...?"

Buffy rolls her eyes before grabbing the front of his shirt and yanking him forward "We're going to Lydia's."


"She still drunk?" Buffy jokes to Lydia's mom, Natalie.
Natalie chuckles softly before looking at the blonde "She's still taking what the doctor's gave her. She was asking for you last night."

Buffy looks down guiltily, wishing now she had stayed here again last night to watch her friend and make sure she was alright.

Before Buffy could say anything Natalie pushes opens Lydia's bed room door, revealing the strawberry blonde who was lying on her bed staring in fascination at her hair.
"Honey, Stiles and Buffy are here to see you?"
Lydia frowns and continues to stare at her hair "What the hell is a Biles?"

Buffy shakes her head in amusement and as Natalie leaves the room Buffy looks at her best friend "Lyd?"

Lydia sits up and her eyes widen in excitement when she spots Buffy "Buffy!" She screeches happily as she reaches for the blonde dragging her onto the bed beside her as Stiles stands there awkwardly.

Buffy smiles at her friend when she spots the phone next to her, an idea forms in her head, turning to Lydia she tilts her head in worry "How you doing Lyd?"
"I'm amazing!" Lydia says perkily before playing with her friend's hair "Where did you go?"

"School." Buffy tells her as she slowly grabs Lydia's phone and tosses it at Stiles who quickly begins flipping through the phone.
"Ooh." Lydia says playfully "Did Owen ask you out?" She teases "I still say you should sleep with tall dark and brooding."

Buffy groans but before she could say anything an aggravated Stiles glances at Lydia in annoyance "I bet you can't say I saw Suzy sittin' in a shoeshine shop. 10 times fast."
Lydia stares at Stiles in annoyance "I shaw..." She mumbles before frowning as she remembers back to last night. Turning to Buffy she looks at the blonde with a terrified expression "I saw..."

Buffy frowns in worry and turns Lydia's face to look at her properly "Lyd, what did you see?"
"Something."
"Something like...like a mountain lion?" Stiles asks as he crouches down beside Buffy.
"A mountain lion." Lydia repeats.
Buffy frowns before nudging Stiles "Check her phone."

As Stiles flips through the phone Buffy picks up the toy giraffe "What's this Lyd?"
She tilts her head in confusion before saying strongly "A mountain lion."

"Buff." Stiles mumbles softly causing the blonde to frown, turning her head she ignores Lydia's head passing out on her lap as she spots the image Stiles was showing her.

Glancing up at Stiles they both stare at the red eyed beast in horror "That's no Mountain Lion."


A shirtless Derek Hale, continues to pull himself up and down as he does pull ups in his living room. Slowly he drops himself to the ground and continues with his workout beginning with simple pushups before finally moving on to one handed pushups.

Movement outside makes him pause however, he quickly moves out of sight and listens as the hunters kick down his door before entering his home.

His anger goes sky high as he hears a familiar voice among the hunters, clearly leading the other two.

"Too bad your sister bit it before she had her first liter." Kate calls out testing his patience and control "Too bad she howled like a bitch, when we cut her in half!"

At her words Derek snaps growling loudly before he drops down from his hiding place and throws one of the hunters across the room knocking him unconscious.
Leaping up he growls at the next hunter before kicking him in the chest sending him flying back, it's not till he spots her though that he completely snaps. Running at her he is quickly taken down as she pulls out a long device and electrocutes him.

As he thrives in pain on the ground Kate grins down at him "This one grew up in all the right places."
Derek grunts and rolls over as he attempts to get up while she continues to aggravate him "I don't know whether to kill it or lick it."


"Hey, it's me again." Stiles says into the phone, as he reaches Scott's voice mail...again "Look, we found something, and I don't know what to do, okay? So if you could turn your phone on right now, that'd be great. Or else I'll kill you...actually I'll get Buffy to kill you, and I'll make sure she does it slowly, and painfully! Very painfully! Do you understand me? And I'm too upset to come up with a witty description about how exactly I'm gonna kill you, but I'm just gonna do it, okay? Ugh! Goodbye." He yells before tossing his phone on the bed.

As he mumbles curses about Scott to himself Buffy pops her head out of his bathroom and frowns at the sight of him "Still nothing?"
"No, so warning you may have to kill Scott." He tells her as he lies down on his bed.
Buffy shrugs "Kay." She says not really minding before she stepped out of his bathroom, Stiles froze at the sight of her in his robe, making his jaw slacken as he practically drooled at the sight of her.

Before he can say anything Buffy holds up two dresses for him to say "Okay I need help...do I wanna appear shy, coy and naive...?" She asks as she holds up the white mini dress before pulling out the gold one "...or unrestrained, insatiable and aggressive?"

Stiles stares at her in confusion for a moment before rolling his eyes, her date, with Owen "You know Owen seems more like Danny's his type." He tells the blonde who shakes her head in amusement "Stiles seriously!"
"Ask you girl friends."
"One of them is passed out drunk and the other is off with Scott somewhere, so you're stuck with the job. It's not like I can ask Melissa, she's already gonna kill me when I don't show up at the teacher thingy tonight."

Stiles stands and moves towards his wardrobe before grabbing his winter jacket and tossing it at the blonde "I'd say it was Eskimo season. The earflaps will bring out your eyes!"
Buffy stares up at him before giving him a look making him groan before pulling the jacket away.

Buffy grins before reaching into her bag and pulling out two lip sticks "Okay guys opinion. Which one do you think Owen will like better? The red or the peach?" As she holds them both up waiting for a response Stiles was really getting tempted to jump out of his bed room window right now, this was pure torture.
"I'm not helping you pick out lipstick which is gonna lead to kissing, which leads to him telling everyone how easy you are." When she gives him an unamused look he rolls his eyes at his best friend "Red."
"Peach it is." She says with a grin before disappearing back into his bathroom while he flops onto his bed, grabbing a pillow and screaming loudly into it.

After a long minute of this he finally stands and moves to his desk dropping into his seat and allowing his head to drop onto his desk "God."

A sudden knock on the door makes him gasp and quickly sit up in shock, turning he sighs as he spots his dad.
"Please tell me I'm gonna hear good news at this parent/teacher thing tonight."
The teen pauses "Depends on how you define good news."
"I define it as you getting straight A's with no behavioural issues."

Stiles frowns and plays with his hands nervously, clearly whatever news his dad was gonna get wasn't gonna be good "You might wanna rethink that definition."
"Enough said."

As the words leave his dad's lips the bathroom door opens and this time Buffy standing in a cute gold mini dress with black leather knee high boots and her hair pinned up.
Stiles merely sits there, watching her, she looked beautiful "Wow...you look...wow...wow...wow."
Buffy smiles "Four wows I take it that's good." The blonde turns her head and smiles at the Sheriff "Hey Mr. S."

"Buffy." He says with a nice smile "I think my son meant to say you look beautiful."
Buffy blushes slightly "Thank you, Stiles." She says jokingly while the Sheriff just sighs at the still frozen look on his son's face. The kid could be truly hopeless sometimes.
"So big date tonight?" Stilinski asks the blonde.
Buffy nods happily "Yeah. Biggest."

The Sheriff glances at his son who was now staring at his hands, he felt for the kid, Buffy had no clue, and if his son didn't man up soon enough someone else would.

"Where's he taking you?" He asks the girl, sounding more like an over-protective father now than anything else.
Buffy shrugs, honestly she had no idea "Oh, I don't know. Where do you suppose young kids go on dates these days?"
"I'd suggest somewhere with adult supervision."
Buffy nods in awe sarcastically nodding "Wow, I never knew being a teenager was so full of possibilities!"
The Sheriff shakes his head in amusement before looking at her seriously "Maybe I should have one of my deputies keep an eye on you tonight."

As Stiles nods happily agreeing to the idea, Buffy's eyes widen in horror, he couldn't be serious "What—huh? No, please?"
The Sheriff chuckles before reassuring the young now terrified girl "Buffy, don't worry. But if need be I will do what I did to the Tyler boy."

Stiles frowns in confusion, he knew Buffy dated a guy named Tyler back in L.A but how the hell did his dad know about that.
Buffy sighs remembering back to how her mom had called him and asked Stilinski to come scare Tyler before their first date "Won't be necessary."
"Or you just bring him over and I'll make sure I'm cleaning my new shot gun in the living room when you do."
Buffy glares at him, this was not okay "Okay, no stop please."
The Sheriff chuckles in amusement before leaving the two teenagers alone.

"Your dad is sweet." She tells Stiles as she grabs her jacket only to groan as her phone starts ringing.

Stiles practically falls out of his chair and leaps onto his bed where her phone was, holding it above his head as she attempts to grab it off him.
"You're discriminating against short people!" She yells as she reaches for it only for him to grin as he realises that it was her watcher which hopefully meant she couldn't go tonight.
"Oh look end of the world problems..."
"Stiles." She warns but he ignores her and presses accept.
"Hello Buffy's phone?"

Buffy glares at her best friend "Buffy's not home!"

"Stiles, put me on speaker!" Deaton orders in a panic, so Stiles does as he requests and both him and Buffy sit down and listen to the Druid/Watcher "Stiles do you have a copy of the paper?"
"Oh yeah." Stiles stutters as he hands the phone to Buffy and makes his way back over to his crammed desk and grabs today's paper, where an article about Five Dying in a Van Accident was the lead story.
"Out of the ashes of five shall rise the one. That's the prophecy. Five people have died!"

Buffy merely stares at the paper unconvinced "In a car crash." She points out, in her mind something like a prophecy really should occur within a more well, mystical setting.
"Buffy, think about it, one of the dead is a known murderer. He may be the anointed one. All of the bodies have been taking to, Beacon Hills Funeral home, except one. We can..."
Buffy groans and interrupts him, was he trying to destroy her life "Watcher man, do you wanna hurt me?"
"Excuse me?" Deaton asks in utter confusion for the first time in his life, she had left him speechless.
"I have a date tonight!" She exclaims

Stiles turns to her, desperately hoping to get her out of this date "Buffy the fate of the world beats this date!"
Buffy glares at him "Since when do you care about the world."
Stiles sputters slightly "Okay not the point."

Buffy groans and looks at Stiles and the phone, hoping to get them both to understand "Clark Kent has a job. I just wanna go on a date."
Stiles groans, she used comic books against him, that was just wrong "That's cruel Buff."
Buffy pouts slightly and leans her chin on his shoulder "Stiles..." She says beginning.

Stiles groans "I hate you." He moans before turning back to the phone "A cranky Slayer is a careless Slayer, D-Man."

Buffy grins while Deaton just sighs, all he could think was, bloody Teenagers as Giles would say "It's a lead that can wait till tomorrow I assume. I can give the place a small check once I close up later but I'm sure it will be nothing"
"Yah!" She cheers, before standing "And look I won't be far behind." She pulls out the weird chunky beeper thing Deaton had given her "And look, if the apocalypse comes, beep me."
