Hello! Thank you all who responded to the huge question about Isaac and Lucy's relationship. I've gotten different suggestions from you all. Some are saying to keep them together, others are saying for them to break up. Right now, I'm sort of leaning towards them break up since not all relationships could be perfect. Also keep in mind: they're still teens so yeah…but I haven't made my final decision just yet. I'll see how these last two episodes turn out, so yeah. Thank you to the guest reviewers also! I read over your thoughts too, but it sucks that I couldn't respond through a PM as you guys don't have accounts. Since we're heading to the final episodes: I might be asking for more help from you all. So yeah, enjoy this next chapter!

The rain had stopped.

The Argents, plus Isaac and Lucy, were quietly tip-toeing around the deserted hospital. Nothing of the scene changed as Lucy still managed to see papers scattered all over the floor, chairs flipped over and empty rooms. The four reached towards the E.R wing of the hospital and Lucy silently stood behind Allison. Isaac followed behind his girlfriend, the werewolf trying to gain other scents in this building, while glancing around.

Lucy's brown eyes stared at the floor in front of her as she remembered Danny vomiting mistletoe. How he was close to death if it were't for her mom's quick thinking. Lucy went as far as to mentally thank Ethan for him bringing Danny to the hospital. It was weird for the girl to think that some members of the alpha pack managed to have feelings.

Mostly Ethan, though.

She could see on that night: Ethan truly cared for Danny. It was real in her eyes, how scared the alpha was as death was knocking on the door. She remembered just before her and Scott left, Ethan stayed behind with his large hands engulfing Danny's weak ones with tender. How Danny's almost closed eyes managed to stare back at Ethan and give him the warmest smile he could muster with all his strength.

With that plus her now knowing his past history: Ethan became more human in her eyes.

Mr. Argent held his hand out, stopping the three teens in their tracks. The older man focused his trained ears to listen for any clues for trouble. In a flash, he cocks his gun to get ready and Isaac nervously quivers behind Lucy.

"I'm gonna take that as a sign you're a little worried," he stated and Allison looks back at him with raised eyebrows.

Lucy also takes out the gun and cocked it just like Mr. Argent. "I might have left the crossbow in the car, but this will do."

"Stay close to me," Chris ordered them with a firm voice. His blue eyes jumped at each teen before staring out front again. Isaac was doing just as told, but his ears quirked in interest and gazed down at the tiled floor. Without thinking, the werewolf slowly started walking further and Lucy's eyes stared at him in confusion.

"What are you doing?" She asked and Isaac glanced over his shoulders.

"I think I heard something," he answered and Allison asked him where. He took a moment to figure out the location of the sound he heard. That's when he pointed his finger at the floor. "Below us."

As Lucy watched Isaac lower himself and hover his ear on the ground, he cocked his head at them.

"I hear footsteps," he spoke as he stood up to his feet. "Two to be exact and it seems like they're running down the hallway."

"So we're not alone, after all," Lucy noted and Chris nodded in agreement.

He gestured his hand at them to follow him. "C'mon, lets get moving."

Melissa's hands still shook with fright and excitement.

The nurse still couldn't believe that she, a nurse with no super strength like her son, electrocuted a ferocious werewolf giant. Melissa knew she could have died if the defibrillator wasn't fully charged, but she didn't and instead defended Scott from being brutally attacked further.

Their footsteps echoed down the hall as Scott held the door open for her. She quickly walked into the next hallway, her hair a complete mess with her curls wild from being outside with Deucalion. Melissa shivered mentally as she recalled those terrifying moments she was with him. He was calm and collected with himself. He seemed quite harmless from afar, but when Melissa pulled the cane off the wall and saw the sharp arrow: he was far from harmless.

He was the "bad guy".

Her voice shook with nerves. "He just let me go, said it was a gesture of goodwill. No other reason."

Scott furrowed his eyebrows together. "He had to have a reason," he told her clearly. "I don't think he does anything without a reason."

"Well," she licked her lips as they walked down the dark hall. "If that means I should continue to be profoundly terrified, then don't worry about it: I got that covered."

Scott gave her a comforting smile, but it quickly faded away as his hand instinctively grabbed her arm. He heard something coming around the corner, and he didn't want his mom to be in danger because of it. Telling her with his eyes to stay behind him, Melissa nodded as she watched with fear as Scott cautiously approached the obscured corner.

The sounds grew clearer.

It was the sound of metal.

Of weapon.

Scott stretched his neck further and his brown eyes were faced with two guns pointed at him. He jumped slightly and Chris lowered his gun.

Lucy does too while sighing in relief.

"Thank god it's just you," she admitted. Melissa then appeared from behind and the mother's face was brighten with a large, but tired smile. "Mom!"

"Lucy," Melissa called out as she was quickly attacked with a hug from her daughter. The two pulled away with Melissa grabbing hold on Lucy's arms. "What in the world are you doing here?! Scott told me you were with Isaac," she blabbered off and briefly looked at the werewolf. "Oh, hello, Isaac."

The werewolf gave a short wave. "Hello, Mrs. McCall."

"I hate to cut this family reunion short," Scott interrupted the friendly environment and all heads turned to him. "But we have a serious situation to deal with."

Lucy narrowed her eyes at her brother. "What? What's going on?"

"Derek and Jennifer are trapped in the elevator shaft," Scott began to explain as he flung his hand wild for them to follow him down the hall. "The alpha pack wants to kill her since she's the darach, but we can't let that happen since she's the only one who can save Cora and find Stiles' dad."

Lucy drowned out everything else when the last few words escaped Scott's mouth. Cora's life was in danger and depended on Jennifer's, the darach, help. Stiles' dad was hiding somewhere that only she, the darach, knew. On top of that, the alpha pack wanted her dead. It was so much for Lucy to swallow into her mind.

She slowed down a bit and Isaac noticed this.

"Lucy?" He grabbed her hand and caused her brown eyes to look up at him. "What's wrong?"

"Just that Cora could die, Isaac," she croaked at him and she lowered her head while shutting her eyes. "I told you something was going to happen! I told you Cora might end up dying and it's all my fault. I jinxed it, Isaac. It's all my fault," she cried into his chest and the group halted their steps while turning their heads at them. Isaac waved for them to continue while saying they'll catch up soon.

The four hesitated, but soon left the two alone.

Isaac gently shook her. "Lucy. Lucy, c'mon, it's not your fault."

"Yes it is," her voice was muffled by his chest. Isaac slowly pulled her away, his hands cupping her face as she sniffed. His blue eyes stared intensely at her brown ones and he began to wipe her wet cheek with his thumb.

He tried again. "It's not your fault. You didn't get Cora sick, okay? Jennifer did and it's her fault. Not yours. Don't blame yourself for something you didn't do."

She remained quiet, but she hiccuped softly. "Okay…I trust your word, Isaac."

The werewolf gave her a soft smile while kissing her cheek. Lucy wiped the remaining tears away from her face with the back of her hand, but still managed a faint smile at him.

"Let's go," he said with a gentle tug. "They're waiting for us."

"…which teacher this is," Isaac heard the voice of Chris from behind the doors. The curly haired boy quickly opened it up with one hand while still holding on Lucy with the other. The two quickly entered with everyone glancing at them. Isaac overheard the problem of Chris not knowing what teacher Scott was talking about.

"She's-She's the one with brown hair," Isaac chimed in as they reached closer to the table. Lucy between her boyfriend and Isaac.

Lucy sighed while staring at everyone that surrounded the metal table. "So what are we planning on doing? Are we going to turn the power back on or no?"

Scott shook his head. "It will be too much of a risk for Jennifer and Derek. If the alpha pack gets on them: then she'll be dead."

"And Cora will be dead too," Lucy whispered in fear, her eyes gazing down at the table. She felt Isaac's hand land on hers, the heat traveling from his body to hers. It was comforting and Lucy sent him a quick smile. She then lifted her head up while looking at Scott. "Then what do we do? We need Jennifer out of this hospital alive for Cora and also to find Stiles' dad."

"We know that," Scott grunted in anger, but it wasn't directed towards her. Allison thought for a moment as she scanned around the room. The female ex-hunter needed to think of an idea, and quick. She then remembered the description Isaac gave to her dad and glanced herself over at the mirror.

Allison sort of looked like Jennifer.

She had brown hair like her.

She had the same skin tone as her.

She had the same, or almost, height as her.

That's when it hit her.

"I've got an idea," Allison spoke up and she stared at everyone. "Like Isaac said: Jennifer has brown hair. I have brown hair, so why don't I portray her."

Lucy quickly nodded in agreement. "I get what you're saying. Trick the alphas by leading them out of the hospital and have Jennifer sneak out safely."

"Exactly," she grinned before looking at each individual. "Isaac, you take the car that's outside. I'll face-chat you where the twins will be running from and you drive to the garage to pick up Cora, Stiles and Peter," he nodded and Allison's eyes bounced to Melissa. "You go to the roof and turn the power back on."

Scott whipped out his phone. "I'll text Derek the plan."

"Tell him to make some noise, making the alphas believe they're trying to escape. Tell Jennifer that we'll swap clothes so I could fool the alphas and also meet the two at the basement once the power goes on."

Lucy soon piped up. "What about me?"

"You and my dad are going to attack them once I lead them outside," Allison smirked and Chris stared down at his daughter with the brilliant plan. "All right. We should start now."

As everyone left the room, Melissa's hand gripped Lucy's arm. She held the teen back and Lucy spun around in confusion, but it melted away as soon as she caught the sight of her mother giving her a worried expression.

"Be careful, sweetie," Melissa whispered at her and Lucy's face softened. The young girl then wrapped her arms around her mom, pulling each other in a loving embrace.

"I will," Lucy promised and Melissa gave her a peck on the cheek before leaving the room. Lucy headed out as well and quickly caught up with Chris and Allison.

Chris and Lucy waited for Allison to get dressed in Jennifer's clothes.

The managed to find them easily since Derek told Scott where they were. The door flew opened and the two turned their eyes at her. She no longer wore her short dress and stockings, but instead some skinny jeans and a blouse with a black cardigan. She no longer wore her black boots, but instead blue wedges. She also wore the pair of earrings that Jennifer had on.

In short: Allison was ready.

Lucy stepped forward, her arms crossed as she flashed a cheerful grin her way. "Lucky everything fits. Down to the shoes too."

"I know," Allison chuckled and took out her phone. "I'll call Isaac to remind him again and also get the video on."

"Um, when," she coughed softly, while scratching her hair. "When did you get his number?"

"Earlier this day," Allison answered as if it were normal as she skimmed through the phone. "We thought it would be best to have our numbers just in case one of us found the last body or if an emergency came up."

Lucy merely nodded. "Oh, okay…"

She then turned away from her and headed closer to her dad. Chris was busy loading his two guns that he now carried around frequently, but he sensed the teenager come closer to him. He lifted his head up, his blue eyes landed on her.

"Are you ready?" He asked and Lucy whipped out gun to show him as well as the multiple knives that she had around her belt.

"I'm ready," she confidently answered him with her eyes glistening with pride. Chris sent her a quick grin and nodded before she turned her attention back to his daughter. In a small way, Lucy reminded him of Allison. The two were both smart, clever and skillful. In his eyes, Chris believed with the right training: Lucy could be an excellent hunter as she had the spark inside her.

It was the same spark he'd seen inside Allison, and also inside his late wife: Victoria.

His face fell as soon as that name came across his mind. Chris dearly missed his wife, and he was still in pain. He never felt this alone in his life since the two would often work as partners. They helped each other, they supported each other, and most importantly: loved each other.

When Victoria told him she was pregnant with their only child, Allison, he was overjoyed. He was nervous, but excited at the same time that he was going to be a father. He didn't want to screw up, he didn't want to make any mistakes for their child.

Once Allison was born, Chris and Victoria tried their best to raise their daughter with a normal childhood. Although his sister, Kate, would annoy him on when he will get her niece into the family business, Chris felt the need to snap at her. The male Argent didn't want Allison have her life to be filled with guns and training. Not after what Gerard put them through, no: Chris wanted Allison to have the life he never had.

To have a normal life.

Free from the werewolf hunting business.

Free from the blood.

Free from death and pain.

Free from all of it.

But it proved difficult as Allison was born a girl and Chris knew what that meant. Chris knew that in this family, the females would be the leaders. The ones to make the decisions and run the family hunting business.

It was like this for generations: his great-grandmother, his grandmother, and his mother.

His sister, Kate, would then take control and when she died the power went to the next female Argent, Victoria. Now that she died, Chris knew who was next in line for the power and he was heartbroken when reality slapped him across the face. It was his little girl, his beautiful daughter, Allison, that now ran the Argent business and Chris would never forgive how his father abused the poor, emotional teenager to carry out his dirty plans.

"You ready?" Allison asked Isaac, her brown eyes stared at the screen to see the werewolf sitting inside the car.

"Yeah," he answered at her. Allison couldn't help but tease at him, her mouth shot him a light smirk with her eyes still on him.

"You're not nervous, are you?"

Isaac chuckled softly. "Do I look nervous?"

Lucy was overhearing the conversation taking place and couldn't help but lean against the wall. She quirked a curious eyebrow at Allison while frowning, but it quickly disappeared. Lucy shook her head and wondered why she was becoming jealous. It was just a simple phone call Allison was making to him to set the plan in motion.

That was it, but she wasn't sure why it made her feel uneasy.

It didn't settled right with her.

"No. Not at all." Allison shook her head and pulled away while staring at the two with her. Chris asked his daughter if Isaac looked nervous, and Allison merely stated, "Terrified."

"Yeah," Isaac's voice called out at them. "I can still hear you very, very clearly."

Allison rolled her eyes, gave Lucy an amused smile, and popped her head into the view again. "Just go as soon as you see them, okay?"

"Did he leave the weapons outside the hospital?" Lucy asked and Allison nodded. The brunette then walked towards the phone and moved her head near the screen. "Be careful, Isaac. Okay?"

"Got it," he grinned and Lucy pulled away as did Allison.

"You two go outside," she ordered and Chris gestured Lucy to follow him. Allison gazed on as the two soon disappeared and she sighed. Cracking her hands and neck, she got ready. "Let's start running."

Lucy hid behind Chris.

The two were crouched down on the grassy floor, their bodies hidden by the bushes. The were quietly waiting for Allison to appear, but Lucy couldn't help to feel nervous. She was wondering if Allison got hurt or if the alpha twins managed to get her. The girl was running in heels, and compared to the speed of that with the alphas: it wasn't much.

"You think she'll make it?" Lucy whispered at Chris, her fingers hovered above the gun that settled in her pocket.

Chris peeled his eyes away from the entrance to stare at Lucy. "She's smart. I know she will make it."

"I know she will, too," she told him as her brown eyes gazed back at the hospital. "I just don't want her to get hurt…"

Chris landed a hand on her shoulder as it caused Lucy to lift her head up at him. He then squeezed with care. "She won't."

"Okay…"

Heels echoed outside grabbed the attention from the two. Glass shattered from above and Lucy's chest tighten as Kali landed perfectly on her feet from the second floor. The twins weren't too far behind as they exited the building with their red eyes glaring at "Jennifer". Allison had made it outside and quickly knelt down on the floor with her hands gripping on her bow. The female Argent then revealed herself, the alphas were taken by surprised this, and soon began to shoot her arrows at them.

"Go!" Chris yelled over the commotion and Lucy didn't waste a second. With the flexibility that she had, Lucy quickly ran towards Allison while doing a front handspring. In that second, she managed to get her hands on the crossbow that laid down and began to fire her arrows at the alphas.

She didn't get to shoot at anyone, but her aiming was getting better as Aiden caught the arrow that she shot at his direction.

The twins soon escaped while Kali wanted to fight off the three of them. She sent a ferocious roar at them, her eyes bleeding red. She then ran off and Chris followed her while changing bullets along the way. As Lucy was about to do the same, her phone rang loudly. She quickly took it out and it was a call from Stiles.

"Stiles? What's wrong?"

"Guardians! It's guardians, Lucy!" He exclaimed through the phone and it caused her to pull away slightly. "It means parents! My dad…your mom: she's gone. She took her, Lucy! They're the next sacrifice!"

The color on Lucy's face immediately drained as her hand shook. "W-Where are you?!"

"I'm heading to the roof. Scott is up there, so hurry!"

"Lucy," Allison called her name as she realized the girl wasn't moving. "What's going on?"

Lucy lowered her hand as she shared a pained look at Allison. "My mom…she's taken. I have to go," she quickly told her while running back inside the hospital.

"Mom!" Scott's hurt voice bursted into the night sky. He was on the roof, her sweat face twisting and turning around the place. "Mom!"

He was panicking.

His mom was gone.

She was nowhere to be found.

"They're gone," Deucalion drawled as he stepped into Scott's view, his cane echoed into the air. "Guardians, Scott. If you were with me, I could have told you what it meant. I could have warned you."

Scott gazed at him with sadden eyes that were on the verge of tears.

Deucalion simply stood. "Let me help you, Scott," he offered at the werewolf. "Let's help each other. You help me catch her, and I'll help you get you and your sister's mother back and Stiles' father back."

Scott wanted to scream at him.

He wanted to say no.

To say he would never help him, but what choice did he have.

Their mom was gone.

Stiles' dad was gone and waiting to be sacrificed.

He had no choice, but to cave in and slowly walked towards the alpha. At the time, Stiles bursted into the roof with Lucy not too far behind. The two teens halted their steps as their eyes watched Scott taking his steps towards Deucalion.

"Scott," Stiles wanted to voice his reason at his best friend. The werewolf froze as he looked over his shoulder to see Stiles and his sister, Lucy, gaze at him with upset eyes. "Scott, don't do this. Don't go with him."

"Please, Scott," Lucy implored at her brother, the crossbow gripping tightly in her hand. "Listen to Stiles. Don't give in to Deucalion. He's a monster, he's the bad guy!"

"I don't know what else to do," Scott sadly admitted to them. Lucy saw that his face and eyes were no longer filled with hope. Everything: the joy, the happiness and confidence was washed away as his tears poured down his cheeks.

Stiles shook his head. "No…there's g…Scott, there's got to be something else, okay?" His tearful eyes glanced at Lucy's, her eyes were beginning to swell up with redness. "We always…we always have a plan B," the last word he croaked like an ill person.

"Not this time," he told him and started to walk again, only to stop when he heard his sister.

"Damn it, Scott!" Lucy yelled at him, her tears running down. "Think about it, please! We can figure this out without his help. Please don't go with him! Please don't give up!"

"Scott!" Stiles tried again as he didn't want to watch his best friend, his brother, slip away from their grasp. Their begging grasp that he and Lucy were now holding on to. Scott's brown eyes stared at Stiles.

"I'm gonna find your dad," he promised him, the salty tears flowing down. He then gazed at his sister, his twin sister. "I'm gonna find mom, Lucy. I'm gonna find her and bring her home with us, I promise you two, I'll find them."

With a final look he shared with her, Scott began to walk off. He began to walk towards Deucalion, and Lucy could see the smug expression that was on his face. She couldn't let him win and made a run for it, but Stiles held her back. His arms were wrapped tightly around Lucy's waist and the girl screamed for him to let go.

She was violently thrashing herself in his grasp, but Stiles ignored the pain that shot through his body. He didn't want her to die because they all knew how dangerous Deucalion was. Lucy's cries grew louder as she watched from the blurry tears that Scott disappeared with him as they drifted away, the smoke consuming them both.

Lucy couldn't believe it. She had just lost her mom to Jennifer and now she lost her brother to Deucalion. She was losing her family and it was happening right in front of her. They were escaping from her fingers and she couldn't do anything to stop it. She felt weak and powerless at the moment because she and Stiles were all they had left with each other. His dad was taken, his only family relative was taken just like hers.

They were all they had as of right now.

Lucy fell down to the wet ground on her knees in defeat.

The crossbow had finally slipped away from her hands and clanged on the floor. Stiles knelt down as Lucy cried harder, the wailing of her pain screeched through the air and he could only hold her down. Stiles could only cry along with her as Scott was gone.

Scott had just sold his soul to the devil.

That's chapter twenty-five! I really meant to upload this chapter yesterday, but I was just so busy that it had to be pushed for today. I hope you all enjoyed it all and once again: thank you for your thoughts/opinions on the Isaac/Lucy relationship ^_^. Here's the question for today:

If Jackson permanently remained in his kanima form (he could no longer transform back into human), would you want to keep him as a pet?

Reviews, alerts and favorites are very much appreciated! Until next time…
