"Achoo!" Stiles sneezed.
"Coming down with something?" Said Alex after Stiles sneezed.
"I hope not." Stiles answered.
"You want to come with me to the pool? Alex asked.
"To the pool? why are you going there?" Stiles asked.
"Try-outs." She answered.
"You wanna be on the swim team? Stiles asked.
"I'll answer that after try-outs. So are you going to come watch?" Said Alex.
"I can't I have lacrosse practice." Stiles answered.
"Oh, well see you in class then." She said before walking off.
Once she made it to the natatorium about to open the door an arm reached in front of her.
"I'll get that." Said Austin.
"Thank you." She said as she turned to see who it was. "What are you doing here?" She asked.
"I'm on the swim team." Austin said as he went in ahead of her.
:
A teacher was walking down the hall when she noticed Allison coming her way.
"Just who I wanted to see." Said the teacher.
"Morning Ms White." Allison said to the teacher.
"Morning. There's something I wanted to talk to you about. How would you like to write the school play?"
"I'm not much of a writer, I couldn't do something like that." said Allison.
"That's not what I heard from your mom." said the teacher.
"My mom?" said Allison.
"Yes I was talking to your mother one day and she said that you were a pretty good writer." said the teacher.
"She even let me read some of the stuff that you wrote."
"She did."
"Can you at least give it some thought, you can try writing a prompt and see how it goes?"
Allison took a moment to think then said she'll do it.
"Alright I'll be looking forward to see what you come up with."
:
Back At The natatorium.
"Alex Zane and kyle smith your up." Said the swimming couch.
Each traiy had to swim against each other and if the winner were faster enough he/she would be picked.
Alex stood up stretching as she did so. The couch looked at her then said. "Your Alex?"
"Yeah." She answered.
"You're a girl." The couch stated.
"Couch Alex is not only a boy's name it's also a girls." said one of the boys.
"It's actually more of a girl's name then it is a boys, since Alex usually is the shortened form of Alexandria or Alexandra."
Said Austin."Am I right, which one is it?"
She didn't answer just turned and started stretching reading getting ready to swim.
"That's fine you don't have to answer me I'll just sit back and enjoy the view."
Said Austin watching her stretching in a two piece swimsuit.
"Hey coach if she sucks can we still put her on the team." Said Austin.
"No I will not. Because I will not indulge in your hormonal crush on a girl who probably has no interest in you." The coach answered.
"You could have just said no. Austin complained.
"Ok are you two ready?" Said The coach.
"I am." Said Alex.
"Me too." Said kyle the boy she was going to be swimming against.
"Ok get ready." He said then blew his whistle. And they both dived into the water.
Alex made it to the end of the pool first and before they knew it she was back at the front.
"So how did I do?" Alex asked with a smile on her face, oblivious to the fact that the guy she was racing hadn't even finished yet.
:
Back At Nathan's.
"Hey Derek I wonder." Nathan said as he stood in the door way of a room Derek was in laying in bed.
"He's just a baby what happened to his parents, do you think they were killed?"
"I'm pretty sure they were. Before before we found him we found a dead dog that probably was one of his parents."
Nathan nodded like he was thinking. "Do you think hunters can take a family of shifters That are trying to protect their young?"
"it depends on how many of them there are." Derek answered.
"Even so why slaughter the families and kill the baby's with a poison. I mean it just doesn't make sense. It's like there was to different-."
"killers." said Derek finishing Nathan's sentence."
"What do you think?" Nathan asked.
"I think we need to see the carcasses." Said Derek.
:
"Scott!" Allison called out to him as she spotted him and Stiles exiting the locker-room.
"Hey." said Scott putting his arm around her shoulder.
"Guess what, I was asked to write the school play." said Allison.
"Really did you accept." Scott asked.
"yeah the drama teacher said that I could just try write a prompt first and see how it goes." said Allison.
"See how what goes?" Said Alex as she came up behind them.
"The play, I'm going to be writing it." Allison answered. Why does your hair look wet?
"Oh I tried out for the swim team." said Alex.
"Did you make it?" Allison asked.
"Yeah she did." said Austin answering for her as he came up putting his arm around her shoulder.
"Austin." Alex said like she was holding back. "I don't like to be touched."
"Sorry." he said taking his arm from around her. You guys should have seen it she was awesome.
"I was not." Said Alex.
"Yes you were, you totally skunked that guy." said Austin.
"That's because he was as slow as a turtle. I got lucky." Alex explained.
"Well either way if the guy was fast or slow Alex you are a good swimmer." Stiles Said as Alex went off to her locker and Stiles followed.
"whats this?" Stiles said as he picked up something out of her locker.
"Vitamin container." She answered.
"There are Vitamins in here, I wouldn't eat anything out of a container that has skull & crossbones on it." said Stiles.
"Oh which reminds me, mom wanted me to tell you that you guys have to come over for dinner." said Alex.
"When?" Stiles asked.
"Tonight." She answered. "So tell your dad, it's an order from my mom."
The bell ringed and they all headed to class.
As they were writing Stiles looked over at Alex noticing that her hand around her knuckles looked bruised.
He waited untill class was over then asked her about it.
"Alex what happened to your hand?" He asked as they left the classroom.
"I punched a brick wall remember." Said Alex.
"This is from punching Derek?" Asked Stiles asked.
"If that's window mans name then yeah." Alex answered.
"You should let the school nurse take a look at it." said Stiles.
"It's not that bad, besides when have you ever known me to have a nurse look at me?." said Alex.
"Never. but that was so you wouldn't get in trouble for doing things you weren't supposed too." said Stiles.
"Exactly, I'm not going to have my hand looked at because it's okay. and so you won't get in trouble.
"For what?" Stiles asked.
"for having strange men in your room that came in through the window that you're not suppose to be with."
Stiles put his arm around her shoulder as they walked then said. "He's not strange."
"Oh really, how old is he?" She asked.
Stiles hunched his shoulders.
Well I'll guess in his twenties, so let's say a twenty something year old man coming in throw a sixteen year old boys window to ask him for favors,
yeah doesn't sound strange at all." she commented.
"If you word it in that way it sounds weird." said Stiles and she laughed.
:
The two detectives were going over what they had learned and were trying to figure out what to do next.
"So he had two kids one of which is the same age as all the other." Said one of the detectives.
"Also female. All of the babies that were killed were girl babies."
"Do you think that family would have been next?"
"Would. I'll say still is. The mother was taken to lure the father in to get to the baby."
"What should we do?"
"Nothing, we're cleaners we are suppose to cover things up, not stop them."
