'Cause you feel like home, you're a dream come true.

Isaac sighed as he headed home not really sure where to go from there. Chloe had made a lot of really good points, and honestly, Isaac felt like a pretty big idiot right now. He felt better now that they'd at least talked about things and he knew what was going on in her mind, but he didn't feel better about the situation in general. Clearly, though he hadn't been a very good boyfriend. And honestly, Isaac didn't feel like he could help that. Turning into a werewolf had been probably the hardest thing he'd dealt with ever honestly. It was like of a sudden he had all these new talents he had to figure out how to master, he was suddenly feeling these urges to rip things to shreds during the full moon, and he did feel this loyalty to Derek that he'd never really felt before. So yeah trying to fit in being a good boyfriend just hadn't happened.

He wasn't sure if there was anything that could be done to fix it or not. He did want to. After all, Isaac was in a much better place now, well kind of. He had just lost one of his friends, another one was still missing, and he was also kind of stuck trying to figure out where he could be helpful at the moment. But overall he was in a better place than he had been when he'd first turned. He had a lot more control over himself, and while he still sometimes had weird urges to kill things or people, especially when he was angry, it wasn't all the time and he had much better control over that during the full moons as well. But he supposed he'd just have to take things slow, like one day at a time.

Nessa pulled her phone out to text Lydia about staying the night with her and was just thankful that she had friends she could reach out to in times like these. Plus Stiles was right, it probably wasn't the smartest idea for them to stay together. It's not like they were dating or hooking up, and she wouldn't want either of them to give his father, the sheriff, a bad impression. Nessa also wouldn't want to make Stiles or his father uncomfortable.

"Thanks for taking me home, and Lydia said she'd meet us there and stay with me tonight so it's all good," She told him smiling at him hoping that it didn't falter. Honestly, Nessa wasn't the girl who got scared easily, she wasn't the girl who spent the night with boys either. Really Nessa honestly hadn't had many boys on her radar because they were a distraction she didn't have time for. But there was something different about Stiles and she wasn't sure if he just wasn't into her like that because he liked someone else, or if he just literally wasn't picking up on any of the small hints she'd noticed herself give him unintentionally, but even she'd noticed from herself. So maybe Lydia could give her some insight on that before the night was over.

Chloe finished with her things for tomorrow and got ready for bed, excusing herself from dinner and sitting in her room. If she were being honest she really did miss Isaac, but she wanted him to try harder. She didn’t think she were asking for much, communication at bare minimum, really. She fell asleep and before she knew it her alarm was going off for school.

She got ready as she normally did, and went out toward her car. She and Alison since living in the same neighborhood usually drove together but as of lately she didn’t think anyone would think twice if she left without her. She pulled into the parking lot and found a spot before going over to her locker. She put her bag in and looked for her books when she felt someone standing behind her and she looked up to see a boy she had never seen before. “Can I help you with something?”

“Yeah actually I’m lost and was hoping you would give me a tour of the campus,” He said, smiling down at her. “I’m Aiden, by the way.”

---

Stiles nodded. “Oh great, great,” He said as he drove out to her house. He was happy because she’d have access to her things and Lydia honestly kept a closet in her car anyway. He drove the familiar way toward her house. He wondered how it would be in the next few days anyway, it seemed to be leading up to something.

“Alright, were here!” Stiles grinned. “I can stay until she gets here?” He suggested but Lydia’s headlights appeared in front of him. “Never mind... see you tomorrow then?” He waited until she fof inside and waved at Lydia before driving back home. Changing in record time he was in bed and asleep before he knew it.

The next day at school he met Scott to tell him he and Nessa has a lot to tell him but thought it better they told himtogetjer. He found her in the library and sat next to her. “Hey, Scott’s waiting to hear what we found out whenever you’re ready,” He smiled at her.

@ Kol.

Isaac knew something was up the second he walked into school. He could literally smell two of the alphas before he’d even made it inside. “Why the hell are they here,” he asked Scott when he’d found him that morning. “Do we have any idea what they want? Have Nessa and Stiles figured anything out?” He asked really hoping they’d found something because he wanted to take them down and be done with it all.

“They’re talking to Chloe. Why? What do you think they want with her?” He asked likely in a panic wondering what was happening. Chloe wasn’t part of any of this, he didn’t want her getting hurt in all of this madness. And it was honestly going to start driving him mad. Which maybe that’s what they wanted, to start shit and piss someone off.

---

Nessa ran her fingers through her hair and sighed. With all the information they gathered about the alpha pack, and this new information she’d found out about Lydia last night, Nessa was really worried about what was happening. “We can go now. I think we need to tell him and everyone else in the pack to be extra vigilant though. I’m not sure what’s coming but it’s something bad,” she told Stiles biting her lol before she added anything else.

“It’s also probably best that we keep an eye out on the new set of twins,” she said knowing who they were. They were part of the alpha pack she could literally feel it and well Nessa trusted a pack of alphas about as far as she could throw them, which wasn’t at all. “Have they found your friend by the way? Heather? I know you said she’d gone missing on her birthday, but I haven’t heard you say anything else,” Nessa said not wanting to bring it up and upset Stiles but she was curious for multiple reasons.

Chloe looked up at him. He looked relatively harmless, but definitely big enough to be threatening. She hesitated, because Isaac. Technically they weren’t together, but why did it feel like she was doing something wrong? Just the look on his face alone showed he had come up to her intentionally but for what reason she didn’t know.

“A tour?” She asked. “You might want to ask someone from the office.

“I was told a local might be more helpful,” He said back and smiled. “Could use some help getting to my classes,” He said with an eyebrow raised.

She figured bantering would get nowhere and she wasn’t doing anything wrong so she showed him to his clsss and he offered to meet her afterwards by her locker so she could keep showing him around. She saw Scott and Isaac watching and went over, purposely ignoring Isaac.

“He’s new he just needed to know where his classes were,” She said to Scott.

“So he says, they’re the ones who took Isaac,” Scott told her.

---

Stiles has all but forgotten. He cared about Heather and didn’t want anything to happen to her but he worried something terrible had happened. “With Lydia finding that body a few days ago honestly I’m not sure how I feel . Just hope she’s okay,” He sighed. “And you? Feeling any better from last night?”

“And those twins? Apparently they’re the ones who took Isaac, and ones gone after Chloe and the other after Danny, no idea what they’d want with him though he’s basically harmless. Chloe, maybe to get to Isaac, who knows?” He sighed. He went to his locker and unlocked it to switch out his books. That’s two disappearances though, can’t be connected can they?”

@ Kol.

Isaac was really trying to keep his cool, but he really didn't trust the twins at all. And he didn't know what the hell they wanted with Chloe, but he was going to figure out what they wanted. He'd be damned if they harmed a hair on her head. "I know things are the best with us, but they're up to no good. They're part of the alpha pack, they had a part in kidnapping Boyd and Erica. They're evil and we can't trust them," he said sighing.

He did wonder if maybe it would be smart to have someone on their side try and get information out of the twins so they could get an upper hand. Though, he wasn't really sure how that would work because he had a feeling that the twins were smarter than that. They hadn't ever really met Chloe though so maybe she would be able to somehow get an upper hand on things. All he really knew right now was that he was tired of losing, and he certainly didn't want to lose to them.

---

Nessa bit her lip and she looked down the hall towards the two twins who were clearly trying to infiltrate their school for some reason. "I'm not sure honestly," Nessa told him wishing that she could say she was but that would be a lie. She was still bothered by everything that was going on in their town, and not having all the information was a little bothersome. But this was more than that, Nessa just had this fear of being alone, and leaving her friends alone that was keeping her up at all hours of the night. She had slept better last night than she had since Deaton had gone out of town for whatever he was looking for, but she was pretty sure it was just because Lydia was with her. And sadly Nessa couldn't ask Lydia to stay with her all the time.

She wished she knew what was wrong with her, or why she'd been like this lately. Normally Nessa was fine being alone. Hell, she liked being alone a lot of the time. It was easier for her to think, to figure things out, to deal with things. But there was something about everything right now that was really bugging her. "I'm sure I'll be okay though. It's probably my lack of sleep messing with my head or something weird," she said pushing her fingers through her hair. "Should we tell Scott what we found now or wait until lunch?" She asked also knowing that, as much as she didn't want anything else to happen, a lot could happen between now and lunch.

Chloe sighed and shrugged. “All I did was show him to his class,” She told him. She was honestly kind of upset by Isaacs reaction. She hated jealousy because she often felt it herself, but she wasn’t even sure Isaac had even really liked her, since after everything she said he hadn’t said anything or done anything to fix it. She might have been overreacting too, she just kept thinking it. “Besides, it doesn’t matter I wouldn’t do anything else,” She told him. “So don’t worry, I’m still tied to you, or whatever it is we are.” She mumbled.

“And if he and his brother are some big bad alphas why are they here? They just seem to be trying to get their education, we should let them.” She added as she went over to her locker. She opened her locker and turned to look st him. She had a dangerous idea and she wanted to run it by someone before she did it. She wasn’t sure what she wanted, but she knew for sure she wanted Isaac to try harder if they were to get back together, if it was what he even wanted. She just didn’t know how to go about it. Or if she even should.

---

Stiles nodded. “Yeah let’s go tell him, you can take lead on that, even though we’re both equally confused.” He shook his head as they walked away from the twins our to the courtyard where Scott and the others were for lunch. “You don’t think they’re here to kill people? Feed them to the alphas or something?” He asked Nessa. “Do werewolves even do that?” He asked curiously.

He was beyond confused and quite honestly it pissed him off. He wanted to know something for once and all he knew was that people were disappearing and now they have alphas in class with them to make matters worse. “Do you think we should try to ask them what they’re doing?” He asked curiously. “Or do you think that’s a bad idea? Definitely a bad idea right?”

@ Kol.

Isaac really wished that he could answer the question of why they were there, but sadly he couldn't. And so when lunch rolled around he had really high hopes that Stiles and Nessa would give them the good news because he could really use some of that right now. He didn't like feeling this far behind, or rather this in the dark. He also didn't like that his friends were still just out there somewhere unsafe, especially with the full moon being so soon. Which he was just not realizing that the full moon was so close, probably because of all the other crap he'd been dealing with it hadn't really registered.

"Do you think we'll be able to save them before the full moon? Which is kind of tonight," He asked wondering if anyone had a plan at all. Honestly, Isaac wasn't sure how any of them were still functioning as humans with all the insane amount of stress they all seemed to be under. No freaking wonder he couldn't make things work with Chloe, his mind literally felt like it was running a million miles a minute and there was so much going on he could barely keep up with himself, or even the full moon's schedule, let alone trying to add a girl into the mix. Not that he didn't want, because of course he wanted to. It was just kind of a work in progress.

---

"I think it would depend on who's actually asking them," Nessa said biting her lip as she looked across the courtyard towards the twins. "I mean I'm sure they're smart enough not to give their plan away, at least not to just anyone. But I also feel like with the right person and the right level of persuasion someone would be able to get information out of them. I mean everyone has a price, which isn't always money," she said not sure who the best person to talk to them would be, but she did know it shouldn't be Stiles.

Once they'd made it to the table with everyone else Nessa noticed everyone looking at her and Stiles as if they'd been expecting them.

"Please tell us you found something," Scott said sighing.

Nessa nodded her head, "we did figure something out. It's not exactly good, but it's something at least," she said wishing it was good, but sadly their luck hadn't been the best. "So we figured out they're at an abandoned bank called Beacon First National. We're pretty sure they've been there for around 3 months probably locked in one of the vaults. And we're also pretty sure for some reason they've been keeping them from shifting. I mean it's unlikely that they've been able to shift because of what the walls are made out of, but we're not exactly sure why this is where they decided to hide out. Or even why they would want to keep them from turning for so long. And pretty much I'm not sure what the plan is for saving them but we all have a bad feeling about this whole thing," she said knowing it wasn't much to go off of but at least it was more than they'd had.

"Oh also, I have this for you," Nessa said as she scribbled down on a piece of paper her idea of someone trying to get close to the twins and use them to figure out the bigger plan. She just hadn't wanted to say it out loud in case they were listening in and got wind of it all.

Chloe sighed. “Honestly I don’t know,” She said to him. She closed her locker and looked at Isaac. If they weren’t together she didn’t really need his permission to do anything but she wanted to make sure they were on the same page. “We aren’t together, right?” She said, wanting everything in the open. “We never officially broke up, just stopped talking all of a sudden. I just... wanted to make sure.” She said, not able to look him in the eyes.

She wanted to go meet Nessa and the others and see what they’d found out since something needed to be done tonight. “But we’re friends?” She asked, kicking herself internally. Honestly how awkward could she be? She didn’t want to hurt him, but she thought this would be the best way to make everything clear at least to her. He didn’t make his own feelings known and as far as she knew, it didn’t matter whether they dated or not to him. “That’s... okay, right?”

---

Stiles nodded as she spoke. “So we can tell Derek after school or whatever, and he can do whatever he’s gonna try to get them out. I got blueprints but I’m telling you, man, it’s tight, it’s going to be hard getting in and out.” He sighed. He looked to see if Nessa had anything else to add. “And if Derek has any more information he’s keeping we’d like it too, might make more sense of this.” He mumbled.

“That’s a good plan, but... who?” He asked her. “And how? We need someone who can get close enough to either of them, without tipping them off as a threat. “Because honestly the creepy twins are starting to stress me out if we don’t figure something out really soon,” He added. “Class is gonna start in a bit, then we can go to Derek’s after?” He asked Nessa curiously.

@ Kol.

Isaac nodded his head in response to Chloe. "Friends," he said feeling like that would probably be the best option for them right now. Maybe it could lead to something else, but friends was a good place to be, especially right now. Friends meant he could still talk to her, hang around her, and just figure out what he felt for her. He could also figure out how to maybe juggle everything he had going on in his life. "I think friends is a good idea right now," he said wanting to verify what he meant.

"Now how about we go see if we need to do anything to help save other friends," he said hoping that Nessa and Stiles had come up with some sort of plan because they really did need to do something tonight if they wanted to actually save them. And of course, Isaac was pretty willing to do whatever he needed to do in order to save his friends.

---

Nessa pushed her fingers through her hair, "I don't know honestly. I mean if they don't already know about me I'd be willing to do it. Which could be a little risky, or maybe we could use someone like Lydia, or even Chloe if she'd be up for it. I mean I know they've likely already tried to get their claws into one if not both of them already but that doesn't mean we couldn't use that to our advantage," she said not sure who the best person for the job would be, but surely they had someone.

"Also yes, we can go to Derek's after class and go over the plan. Maybe he'll have something else to add," she said hoping they'd be able to figure something out because right now she really was worried. After all, Nessa knew they had to find a way to get whoever was in that vault out ASAP. Not just because it wasn't right or because they were friends, but also because the longer they stayed in the vault without transforming the harder to pull their human sides back out it was going to be.

Chloe nodded, putting her bag on her shoulder. “Come on, I’m sure the others are talking now.” She said before Aiden rounded the corner. “Hey, my next class is English, think you can show me the way?” He asked, smirking at Isaac with a look that spelled trouble. Chloe had already told him she would so she nodded, turning to Isaac. “I’m sure you can find them, I’ll see you later,” She said, smiling at Aiden and going to show him to the class.

“Looks like we’ve got two together, English is my next after lunch,” She tod him as the two of them walked down the hall. “So you and that guy, something I should be worried about?” Aiden asked her with a small smile.

Chloe laughed, even though she knew what he was doing. She didn’t know if Isaac were still listening in, since his hearing was likely incredible. “I’m more curious as to why you’d be worried,” She said, leading him to the class. Her emotions were all over the place and if this were a rebound after four months of not talking to Isaac, she had no idea.

---

Stiles looked at Nessa. “We can see if any of you can get to them, but would you be okay? Like I don’t want you to get into a bad situation and not be able to get yourself out of it.” He said to her. “Do you think we’d be able to get them to tell us anything before tonight? So we’d know how to get them out by the full moon?”

Stiles was worried even more so now. It was the full moon, Heather was still missing, and he felt like the twins and the other alphas had everything to do with it. “Plus I’m behind on my homework, if we get a chance, I need to get it done before my teachers start asking questions,” He ran ahand down his face. “Come on, breaks almost over,” He said, standing up. “I’ve got math next, so I’ll see you after? School feels like it’s taking forever when people are in danger, it’s starting to stress me out,” He said to himself and sighed.

[If you want to skip ahead to later when they break in to get out Boyd and Erica and Lydia finding the person by the pool we can!]

@ Kol.

[ sounds good to me! ]

Isaac had spent the majority of his day worried about a lot of the people he cared about in his life. Chloe, Boyd, Scott, Derek. There was just so much shit going on he wasn't sure how to even handle it all. But at least he knew that Scott and Derek had a plan. Maybe not the best plan in the whole world, but a plan nonetheless. They also both had multiple ways to reach him if they decided they needed him to help with anything. Isaac was letting himself have high hopes however that the plan, at least this one time, would actually go according to plan.

So he paced around a bit as they'd went about the plan really hoping this would all work out. After all, he was getting nervous. What if someone saw them? What if he got caught again in the process of trying to save the others? What if someone died? His mind was literally full of nothing but awful what if's and if they didn't get out of there fine asap he was going to lose his mind.

---

The day overall had been a rather stressful one for Nessa. She wasn't entirely sure that she trusted Derek's plan to save Boyd, Erica, and whoever else, but she was letting them all go along with it because they had no other plan and they had to save them tonight. And it didn't get any less stressful pulling up to the pool only to find Lydia freaked out because she'd found a dead body. "You know if you're stressed about homework or school or whatever you're welcome to come over anytime to study with me. Because believe me, I know that dealing with this on a regular basis takes a toll on a person. And maybe if you have someone else to keep you focused on the homework rather than all the other things going on, it'll make it a little easier," she told Stiles before they got out of the car to check on Lydia and see what was going on.

"Hey, Lydia can you tell me everything that happened tonight?" Nessa asked her friend pulling her away from the body a little so maybe it would distract her slightly. "Like do you know how you ended up here? Or why you came here of all places? Have you been feeling okay lately? Anything weird going on?" She asked really hoping she could assess the situation and help Lydia out. Because this wasn't normal, people didn't just accidentally stumble upon dead bodies in the middle of the night like this and not know how they got there, at least not when the body's out in the open like this one.

Chloe went over to the loft, knowing Derek and Scott were out trying to go get Erica and Boyd out of the vault. She had heard that something had gone wrong but Isaac had been basically benched and she felt bad. She slid the door open and sighed. “Hey,” She said, closing it behind her and stepping inside. “Are you okay? They’ll get them, don’t worry,” She reminded him.

Chloe looked out the window and went over to the couch. “I know you want to go out and help but it’s gonna be okay. Couldn’t get much out of Aiden, but I don’t know what they want me to get out of him.” She sigjed. She wondered if she were saying too much about it and if Isaac didn’t want to hear it. Since they’d broken up she didn’t even really know what to talk to him about.

---

Stiles sat with Nessa as she spoke to Lydia. Boyd and whoever else was in the vault was out lost in town, and they’d killed someone. Lydia found the body and was inconsolable so Nessa was doing her best to calm her down. He’d noticed a purity ring on the guy that they’d killed but he didn’t think it was really important in comparison to everything else at the time.

Stiles sat down next to Nessa. “What do you thinks gonna happen now? Lydia’s a mess, this just seems to be getting worse,” He sighed. He looked at his phone and back at her. “Scott’s gonna try to get Alison’s dad to help, since they need someone who can catch werewolves better than werewolves,” He sighed. “I feel like there’s gotta be something else we can do.”

@ Kol.

Isaac sighed into his hands and shrugged his shoulders. “I just feel like I should be doing more than I am. I hate this feeling that I’m being benched at the playoffs. I’m useful, and these are my friends. But rather than helping anyone with anything I’m suck here at the loft being useless,” he told her knowing that both Derek and Scott had good reasons for asking him to stay behind he just hated it.

“I’m sure Aiden probably knows something was up. While I think the idea of trying to trick them is smart I feel like that’s also going to take a long time to get results,” he said pretty sure the alpha pack was smart enough to know that someone would like try that. After all, that’s the same tactic they were using really. Try and get close to Chloe to get info on Scott or even Derek, because she kind of close to Scott, and she’s close to people who are close to Derek. “Maybe we just need to look at the whole situation differently,”

---

Nessa sighed and glanced over to Lydia who was still a little shaken up, and talking to the police, which all made sense, before she looked back to Stiles. “I think the best thing for us is tonight anyways is to take Lydia home, and let the police, Scott, and Derek all do their jobs. We’re just going to be in the way otherwise. And this clearly wasn’t a werewolf so we should just try and focus on homework or something find a way to distract ourselves from this night,” she said wishing she had a different plan. But honestly, Nessa was literally stumped at what was going on here and she really needed to clear her head from everything so maybe she could then look back over everything with a fresh perspective.

“I mean I think right now we’re just to consumed by it all to have a good view of what’s going on. We’re looking way to closely and are overwhelmed with stress. So maybe if we take a step back and do something else something will just come to us. It’ll all just click,”

“You might get your chance to help,” Chloe said as she looked at her phone. “Boyd and... you were right,” She said. “Erica is dead.” Chloe never really liked Erica, but she didn’t want anyone they knew dead. Regardless of their connection to her. “Scott wants your help rounding them up,” She told him, shaking her head. “Someone named... Cora? Who’s that?”

She looked at her phone. “I can’t ask my dad for help, as far as he knows I’m still hunting werewolves, Alison’s dad though should he willing to help.” She went over to Isaac and sat down on the couch next to him. “Look are you okay?” She asked softly. “You don’t have to go.”

---

Stiles shook his head and took a step back. “We can’t just... leave it alone,” He sighed. “Alright look if you wanna go with Lydia I get it, I’ll see if I can help out Scott or something,” He said as he went to go talk to his dad. He couldn’t just leave it and he knew If he tried it would just annoy him to no end.

He checked on Lydia and turned toward his Jeep, wanting to get to Scott and find out from him what the plan was. He climbed in and hoped that at least by the end of the night someone knew something. At this point he didn’t even care what it was, just something thay got them some kind of answers.

@ Kol.

Isaac felt his heart sink a little when Chloe told him that he was right about Erica being dead. That was honestly the one thing he was hoping hadn't been true. He literally hated knowing one his friends was dead. "Um, I'm not sure who Cora is. I mean clearly, she's the other werewolf I saw in the vault when I'd found them originally, but I don't know who she is," he said wondering if whoever she was has a connection to Derek.

"I wouldn't want you to ask your dad and make things really weird between the two of you," Isaac told her knowing that she did have a pretty good relationship with her dad and the last thing he wanted was to come between the two of them. Now if Chloe wanted to say something to her dad of her own will she could, but Isaac wouldn't ask that of her. "That's the thing, I do have to help," he told her wondering if she would understand if he told her everything. "Boyd is part of my pack, I may not be the alpha but I am part of the pack. And if there's anything I can do to help make sure another member isn't killed for whatever reason then I have to. Plus they're going to need my help to track them down and catch them,"

---

"We're not doing nothing," Nessa replied to Stiles shaking her head. "Just because we focus on other things doesn't mean we're doing nothing. It means that we're taking steps away from the current situation so we can view the whole thing from a different perspective. And sometimes that means working on other things until something clicks that we might not have thought of beforehand. Which thoughts can be triggered by working on other things," she told him not wanting him to think that she was giving up, because that was not the type of girl she was at all. However, this was the best option she had.

"Besides I think Lydia really needs us tonight," she added glancing back at their friend who was sitting in her car clearly still shaken up. "I'm sure that Scott, Derek, Allison's Dad, and probably Isaac are all perfectly capable of catching a couple of werewolves without us. Maybe what we do to help is help Lydia. I mean there has to be a reason she's found a dead body without trying right? Without realizing this was where she was going when she thought she was driving to the store. Maybe we can piece together other clues. Like if there's a connection between this guy and your friend Heather?"

Chloe listened to Isaac and sighed. All she wanted was for him to talk to her. “Okay, then if you have to do it, you do what you need to do.” She said seriously. “I can help, if Alison’s dad is, I can help you all get them.” She said, standing up. She didn’t have anything that wouldn’t kill them on her, but she could go home and get something. “Okay, we should probably go, they will need us sooner rather than laters.”

She pulled ou her car keys and went over to unlock it. “Did you... want to run over or...?” She asked curiously. “I can meet you over, I’ll meet up with my uncle and see how I can help,” She said. He looked upset and she looked at him. “Everything is going to be fine, we’ll get Boyd and Cora. Okay?”

---

Stiles sighed. “I don’t... know. Heathers not... she’s jjst missing,” He said quietly, his voice cracking and shaking his head. He cleared his throat and looked at her. “Scott’s mom texted me though so I was going to go by the hospital and see what’s going on. Did you want to come? Or stay with Lydia?” He asked her curiously. He hoped it wasn’t any connection to Heather, the last thing we wanted to know was that she was dead, and on her 17th birthday no less.

He rubbed his face and shook his head. “Alright, um.. Okay. If you think Lydia needs us, do you want to go to her place with her and I’ll come by after meeting Scott’s mom at the hospital? Scott and the others can get Boyd and Cora with no problem. Then I’ll come by and we can stay with Lydia.”

@ Kol.

Isaac nodded his head towards Chloe, hoping she was right and that they'd find Boyd and Cora and soon. "I really appreciate you helping," he told her knowing that the more people they had who were trained in this kind of thing the better their odds of finding them would be. "Yea we should head out, do you um need my help with anything?" he asked her wondering if she wanted his help maybe collecting some of her nonlethal weapons, or if she'd maybe want his help getting her uncle to help. Not that Isaac felt he'd be a good person to convince Mr. Argent to help, but if Chloe did want his help Isaac was happy to give it.

"I am going to see what the plan is though," he told her as he pulled out his phone to text Scott and get a game plan. So far all he knew was that Boyd and Cora had escaped the bank and were running around the woods freely probably looking for their next meal, or maybe just for something to kill. But he was sure, or at least he was hopeful that Scott and Derek had some game plan to find and capture them.

"Why don't we drop Lydia off at her house and then swing by the hospital together," Nessa said reaching out to gently touch Stiles' arm. She could easily tell that everything was taking a toll on him and she'd hate for him to have something else to add to their already full plates. Nessa also didn't want him to go to the hospital alone and get some bad news, because she had a bad feeling that that's what was going to happen.

"I mean I think Lydia's just a little shaken up and probably just needs to go home and sleep it all off," she said running her fingers through her hair. "I'm sure even trying to get anything out of her that might be helpful right now wouldn't really go over well anyway," she said knowing if this were almost anyone else they would've also shut down. And Nessa wasn't shocked by that, or even upset about it, she was worried about her friend though. She didn't know how Lydia had found the body tonight, she just couldn't piece together everything that was going on. Somehow though Nessa had a feeling that everything going on wasn't exactly connected to the Alpha pack in town. She knew it had to have something to do with them, but she didn't think they were behind the attacks.

Chloe nodded and got into her car. “No yeah if you would help that would be great. Since it’s in my fathers weapons storage, and I’ll need help distracting or getting it out,” She explained to him. She started her car and turned off toward her house, hoping neither of her parents might be home.
“Yeah find out from Scott and see what the plan is and then we can meet them there? I’d feel too useless if I didn’t help.” She sighed, wondering where her uncle might be. She figured she had a better chance with him than she would have with anyone else especially not her father.

She was happy thay he was speaking to her at least now, but she figured that them breaking up was probably for the better. Even though she wasn’t sure how she felt about it still if he was okay eventually she would be too. “I’m gonna need a few things but my uncle should have more. Do you think Scoff could convince him on his own or will he need our help?”

Stiles nodded and texted Ms. McCall that he would be on his way in a few minutes. He fished out his keys and waited for Nessa to head out toward his car. He climbed in and started it up and sighed. “Look I’m sorry if I’m not being really helpful I just... Boyd and Cora killed someone and we let them out by trying to save them. It just always feels like the alphas are ten steps ahead and we’re kust trying to clean up.” He said as he pulled up to the hospital and went inside with Nessa going to meet Scott’s mom.

She lead them down to the morgue to show them the body and explain what happened with the body. He noticed a second body but didn’t focus on it because of what she was telling him about the first. “So there’s no way that they did this? No werewolf could have done this.”

“Right not like her, she was brought in last night.” Melissa said as she lifted the sheet and he saw heather. He had no idea how to make sense of the emotions going through his mind. While they hadn’t been close, he couldn’t believe that she was dead. Despite the grief he felt, it suddenly made sense. Melissa told him thay another girl had just been brought in and he looked at Nessa. “I think I know what’s going on.” He said in shock.

"Of course, I don't mind helping at all. Just tell me what you need me to do and I'll do it," Isaac said nodding his head towards her with a smile. He really was thankful that she was helping them out. Though, he didn't feel like this would be going any other way ever. Chloe was a lot different than most of her family really. Obviously, he knew that before she knew he was a werewolf the things she thought about his kind were a lot different. But at the same time he knew that Allison and her dad had been the same way. Then everyone had opened their eyes and saw that not all werewolves were bad.

"I'm also just waiting for Scott to get back to me on where to meet them," he said biting his lip. "I mean I think that Scott might be able to convince him," he said biting her lip and really thinking about it. If there was anyone that Isaac knew who would be able to convince Mr. Argent to help them it'd be Scott. "I'll ask him if he needs help with that too," he said knowing that Chloe would be a good second choice to get her uncle's help if Scott couldn't get him to help them.

Nessa pushed her fingers through her hair and bit her lip as she stood towards the back of the hospital morgue with Stiles and Ms. McCall being shown dead bodies. And Nessa knew that this whole thing was messed up, but she knew it was probably a lot worse than they'd originally thought when it was confirmed that a werewolf hadn't killed any of their victims.

"Please explain then, because I'm still a little confused," she said wondering if there really was something she was missing. Normally Nessa was really good at figuring this kind of thing out, but there was just something about this specific case that was literally stumping her at this point. She did believe that somehow everything had to do with the alpha pack, she just wasn't exactly sure how they were connected to everything yet. In all honesty, things were really starting to confuse Nessa more than she'd ever been confused in her life.

Chloe nodded. “Right, Okay, So then I’ll need to head over to my fathers weaponry, and see what I can gather from there. By the time I’m done Scott and the others should have a plan, right?” She asked as she started her car toward her house. She drove along the road, wondering if Isaac felt awkward being around her. She enjoyed being around him so she was content regardless. “I can get things to basically herd and trap them, stun if need be, and subdue but I’m hoping you and the others can handle that.” She said as she pulled up to the shed by her house.

“Come on,” She told him, climbing out and punching in the key to get in. She went inside and began dumping things into a duffel bag, seeing him go over to the mistletoe. “Don’t touch that if you want to be useful to anyone tonight,” She said, pointing along the wall. “Pull off all of those silver things and those black things. We’re gonna need them all.”

Stiles could hear his heartbeat in his ears. If he focused a little less he couldn’t see anything but Heather a few days ago. It broke his heart but he looked at Nessa to try to forget even temporarily. “They’re sacrifices. They were all virgins.” He told her seriously. “The girl upstairs, her girlfriend isn’t going to be found alive. Which means, there’s going to be more. We just don’t know for what,” He said, looking up at her.

“Someone is killing virgins in beacon hills, but for what reason. And why in this way? It’s called the five fold death [i couldn’t remember the proper name] and it means whoever is doing it,” He said. “They aren’t done. I just don’t know what group might be next. And why.” He said seriously.
