So I was running into the library to find Scott and Stiles to ask them something when I saw them coming down the stairs and they looked at me. I smiled at them both and Stiles raised his eyebrows up at me.
"You want something. I know that smile." Stiles said quickly. I glared at him and then stuck out my tongue at him. He was always assuming I wanted something from him.
"I actually just came to as you about the sneaker. Anything yet on them?" I asked. Stiles shook his head.
"Still being ran through." He said. That's when we both met up in the middle by a bookcase and I sniffed, smelling something new. It was a familiar old scent of someone. I narrowed my eyes and a low growl started in the back of my throat and I growled whipping my head to the side. Stiles and Scott both grabbed me and yanked me back a few feet because standing there was Theo reading a book. He glanced up at us as I set my teeth together. Stiles an arm around my waist in front of me to keep me straight on attacking Theo right there in the library.
"What are you doing here?" Scott asked.
"I still need to graduate." Theo said. I shrugged at that answer.
"Or die." I said.
"No. No. What you need is to be beaten severely with a lead pipe wrapped in barbed wire." Stiles said. I nodded at Stiles and pointed.
"I like that idea. I volunteer as tribute." I smirked.
"Okay, I admit that mistakes were made." Theo said. I growled louder at him baring my teeth at him.
"Mistakes? You call innocent people dying mistakes?!" I yelled as I lunged forward. Scott caught me swinging me back behind him. I was glaring at Theo over behind Scott's shoulder. Stiles put his hand on my forearm tightly.
"Sky's right. Murders were made." Stiles said.
"You know how the Soviets helped us win World War II?" He asked. I rolled my eyes. We didn't need a history lesson right now. What I needed personally was claw sharpening session and I was looking to do it on Theo's face.
"By killing people who have your ideals?" I asked.
"They knew who to make it through a Russian winter." Theo said. I rolled my eyes.
"Can I kill him now?!" I demanded to Scott. He had a firm grip on my other forearm.
"That it? Okay thank you Theo. Very informative." Stiles muttered.
"If you're planning to break Lydia out of Eichen House you still need to get past the Mountain Ash." Theo said. I narrowed my eyes at him. How did he know about our plans to get Lydia out of Eichen House?
"We can make it through. You two can't." Theo said. I rolled my eyes.
"What do you really want?" Scott asked.
"I know you saw the fresco. Two seriously pissed off creatures, the Hell-hound and the Beast fighting over a pile of dead bodies. I don't want to be one of the bodies, it's that simple. I can get you to Lydia. Or we can see who gets to her first." Theo said. The boys stood quiet while he put the book back on the shelf and went towards the door.
"May the best pack win. Mutt." I muttered. They both glanced down at me as he walked out. They normally didn't see me this vicious towards someone but when they hurt or kill someone that I care about as if family there was no filter for me and my claws were waiting to be dug into their skin. I know that sounds gross but retribution was at hand. I wasn't going to kill Theo per say but maiming was something I was okay with.
"He doesn't know what Valack is doing in there so why is he so interested in her?" Stiles asked. I shrugged.
"He probably thinks what we're all thinking." Scott said.
"Which is?" I asked confused as I glanced up at him.
"That Lydia's got something bigger to do with this. That maybe she's the only one who can actually save us." He said. I looked at the ground before glancing back at the door Theo had just left out of and I set my teeth again. I then looked at the ground again with a glare.
We had all assembled at Scott's house due to a text that we had all gotten from him to talk about the plan involving Kira's part. Malia told all of us that while practicing for the brownout to take out Eichen's power they blew out the school's power. Well, that was reassuring.
"She took out the whole school?" Scott asked.
"She took out the whole grid." Malia said. My mouth dropped opened and formed a little 'o'. How could have Kira taken out the whole damn power grid?
"Look, I failed every single practice try. This isn't going to work." Kira said.
"How far can we get without the brownout?" He asked.
"The front door and that's it, but we have to do this or things are going to go from bad to worse." I said.
"Guys, we went through a box of light bulbs." Kira said.
"It doesn't matter. You can do this." Scott said. I glanced at Scott with a raised eyebrow. I loved his optimism but we all knew it wouldn't work without Kira doing her little electric power thing.
"The key card won't work unless there's a reboot and there's no reboot without a brownout." Kira said in a rush.
"I know you can do it." He said and then when she looked at him doubtful I just bit my lip.
"Does anyone think that she can't?" He asked as he looked at us. We kept quiet as we glanced at each other.
"Not me." Liam said.
"I was the one who put you in the plan." Stiles said shrugging. Then that's when they looked at Malia and me. I nodded.
"Yeah I believe in you." I said. That's when Stiles looked over at Malia.
"This is when you say I believe in you too, Kira." Stiles whispered.
"I'm the one who's going to be locked in an electrical room with her!" Malia said. That's when Liam and Stiles both gave her looks. She sighed and then looked over at Kira.
"You can do it." Malia said. I could definitely feel the love coming off that. That's when we all glanced at each other.
"You guys are all crazy. We're gonna die." Kira said. I smiled at her widely.
"That's great enthusiasm there!" I smiled. She rolled her eyes at me and I smiled at her but then I glanced at the group and took a deep breath. Hopefully it would work out better than we all planned.
It was later that night when we climbed into the police van and Scott, Stiles, Liam, and I zipped ourselves up into the black body bags along with some actual dead bodies. I was trying to hold my breath and breathe as little as possible because it was nasty as hell. I groaned and held my nose with my fingers breathing through my mouth as quietly as possible. It was less smell by breathing through my mouth but it was still bad.
"Guys I think I'm going to throw up." I groaned in my bag as we started to roll.
"Try not to breath as heavily." Scott said. I groaned.
"This part of the plan sucks." I hissed. I heard Liam laugh at me and I growled at him.
"Shut it Liam." I hissed. We were rolling around for a good ten minutes before I heard Parrish talking up front to the guard at Eichen. After some sentences the back doors opened up and I held my breath really quick and took short breaths if I had to get some air. I heard the guard gag and then the doors shut. I smirked to myself laughing quietly. After another minute or so we stopped again and I felt myself being lifted up and then set down on a metal stretcher. I felt myself being wheeled and then I stopped. After a few minutes I heard a zipper and then I ripped my own down and rolled off the table taking deep breaths of fresh air.
"Well, we're in." I breathed as the other three sat up and looked at me.
"Oh my god. Never again." Stiles said. I pointed at Stiles.
"I agree with Stiles." I muttered as I stood up.
"Fifteen minutes starting now." Scott said. I watched as Liam and Stiles tried to get out of their body bags and it ended with Stiles effectively ending up on the floor. We glanced down at him for a moment before I bent down and yanked the zipper down on the bag.
"Clumsy." I muttered standing back up. I watched as Scott put his ear up against the door listening for footsteps before all four of us slipped out and headed down the hallway. Scott was at the front while I was at the back checking behind us every few seconds. Alpha in the front and Alpha in the back. That's how we roll. Eventually Stiles got in the front and when we were about to go around the corner to the closed unit Stiles yanked us all back. I glared at him.
"Guards." He said to me.
"I thought they were supposed to be done." I said.
"They were supposed to be like five minutes ago." He said.
"I can take them." Liam said.
"So could I. Your point is?" I asked as we all looked over at him.
"No one is taking anyone." Scott said.
"How much time?" Stiles asked.
"Three minutes." Scott said.
"I'll just knock them out and hide the bodies." Liam suggest. I rolled my eyes at him as they peaked around the corner again to look at the guards that were by the door of the closed unit.
"Stop!" I snapped quietly. That's when someone banged on the plastic window in front of us thoroughly startling the shit out of us. We had all jumped and looked up at the guy who looked he was one fruit short of a fruit salad.
"Did you take the doctor?" He asked.
"What?" Liam whispered.
"Did you take the doctor?" The guy repeated. I growled and glanced at Scott who was glancing down the hallway. He noticed the two orderlies look down slightly.
"I haven't had my medication. I need ten milligrams at 8 am, 15 milligrams at 1 pm, and no more than 20 at dinner." He said. Oh, I was so right; one fruit short of a fruit salad. I really didn't understand how Stiles could lock himself in with these people. That would really get to me if I had done that with these type of people in here.
"We'll get the doctor." Scott promised.
"Dr. Fenris." He said. I nodded.
"Dr. Fenris. They took Dr. Fenris." The guy said as he started to cry. Then he started to pound on the plastic window. I growled.
"I haven't had my medication. I need my medication! They took Dr. Fenris." He said banging on the door.
"Hey, someone shut him up." Stiles muttered.
"Thought you'd never ask." I muttered as he banged on the plastic window again. Then that's when he glanced down the hallway and I guess the orderlies were starting to move.
"Shut him up!" Stiles hissed. I brought out my eyes and teeth and growled at him quietly. He stopped immediately and took a step back. That's when Stiles glanced down the hallway as I went back to being normal. Once Stiles saw them disappear behind another door we went down the hallway to the gate. When we were walking the emergency lights kicked in and we all stopped.
"Kira did it." Liam said.
"It would appear so." I smiled as we reached the gate. Stiles went to swipe the card but a card reader wasn't there.
"Wait, there's supposed to be a card reader there, isn't there?" I asked. He nodded.
"It should be here. It has to be." Stiles said.
"They must have taken it out when the Dread Doctors got through." Scott said. I nodded.
"That would make sense." I muttered.
"Are you telling me we came all the way down here just to be stopped by an ordinary key? Are you kidding me?" Stiles asked.
"We don't need a key. We could rip it off its hinges." I said nodding. That's when Scott and Liam started to yank at the door. Stiles moved out of the way so I could go at it from where he was standing. I growled as we yanked at the door. We were all pulling so hard that the muscles in our arms were straining through our skin. Liam was making a face as he pulled at the door.
"Guys, we're running out of time." Stiles said as we groaned pulling away from the door.
"We can't. The mountain ash is too much." I muttered as I rubbed my hands on my pants as if the mountain ash was really there.
"Hit me." Liam said. We all stared at him like he was crazy.
"What?" Scott and I both asked confused.
"Hit me. One of you." He said looking at Scott and Me. Scott and I looked at each other and I blinked a few times fast really confused on what purpose this had.
"I'll get angry then I'll get stronger." Liam explained. I nodded.
"Hit him! Hit him!" Stiles said quickly. I glanced over at him and he looked at me and motioned towards Liam and mocked swinging at him.
"I'll do it!" I said all too quickly.
"I tried to take your powers. I tried to kill you." Liam said looking at Scott. Then he looked at me.
"I broke your heart. I chose Hayden after I promised I wouldn't be like your past." He said. I growled angrily and smashed him in the jaw with my fist startling both Scott and Stiles.
"You bitch!" I screamed hitting him again.
"He also left you for dead." Stiles said as he glanced at Scott.
"I wanted you dead!" Liam yelled and that's when Scott hit him after I had stepped back a bit from him.
"Do it again." Liam said. I pushed Scott aside as Liam straightened up.
"This is for the tears I cried." I screamed punching him in the face. Stiles just stared at me before egging me on.
"Gotta be harder than that." Stiles said. I faltered a little bit. I was getting my anger out at Liam for doing all the things he had promised not to do and my anger was waning and I felt a little bad on why I was really doing this.
"Do it!" Liam snapped. I stood there for a moment.
"I cheated on you!" Liam yelled and I stood there for a minute shell shocked.
"Sky…" Scott and Stiles both murmured before I started to wail on Liam hit for hit.
"I-" I hit him.
"Hate." Hit.
"You!" I screamed hitting him for a third time.
"You angry?" Scott asked as he pulled me away by my upper arms. That's when Liam glanced at me with yellow eyes and wolf teeth. He growled at us.
"Let's do this." Scott said. We all threw ourselves at the gate and all three of us managed to push hard enough the door went through the other side so Stiles could get through.
"Stiles go!" Scott panted. He ran through the door and I braced my hands on my knees as I glanced down at the ground as my mind whirled at the thought Liam had cheated on me.
"Two minutes." Scott panted. I was trying to hold back my tears because it wasn't the time for me to be crying about shit I just learned. I took deep breath which turned into pants and gasps as I tried to hold back tears threatening to cascade down my face. The hole that was in my heart sown up so many times by brittle threads tugged open.
"Skylar." Scott whispered. I just braced myself against the wall trying to get my breathing steady. I knew Scott was listening to my racing heart.
"Sky I lied." Liam said. I shot my head up and glanced over at him. Scott and Liam were both looking at me.
"You're crying." He whispered. I wiped at my cheeks and behold my tears had actually started to run down my cheeks.
"Well if you were told you that you had been cheating on how would you feel?" I asked.
"I just said it to get you angry so you would hit harder. I didn't mean it. I wouldn't do that to you." He said. I nodded and he came over to me and put my hand over his heart. I felt a steady rhythm of his heart beat.
"I didn't cheat on you." He said. The rhythm stayed steady and constant. He was showing me he wasn't lying to me because I knew he felt like I didn't believe him. I nodded and leaned my head back against the wall. After a minute or so Liam and Scott tried to start breaking through the Mountain Ash barrier. I stared at the blue ray that lit up the hallway as they pushed against the barrier trying to break it.
