Alex stood in the sheriffs office, watching as he fiddled with his tie.
He was getting ready for a fancy date, although he looked as if he could pass out at any moments. Alex assumed it was nerves, given that he probably hadn't been on a date In so long
Alex had gotten past the events of yesterday, she understood why stiles was nervous to let new people in, most times those people ended up stabbing them in the back.
"Here let Me" Alex offered. She straightened the tie correctly, patting down his shoulders to give him the finished look.
"thanks"
He grabbed the mirror and held up to his face, continuing to mess with his hair.
Alex could see Noah was worried about this date and Scott could smell it.
He sighed "Oh, I should've got a haircut"
"Well, you know someone your age should be happy you still have hair to cut" stiles made a smart remark
"Stiles Stilinski" Alex full named her boyfriend
"Your father looks very nice tonight"
"I think you look great" Scott complimented
"Well, thank you, children I should have had" he looked at his sons best friend and girlfriend
Stiles merely responded with a blink.
"Oh, what the hell am I doing? This is a terrible idea." Noah reached for his tie, wriggling his fingers as he tried to undo it
Stiles grabbed his fathers hand before he could get any further. He shook his head "What, Dad... Dad, it's one date, okay, The town of Beacon Hills won't implode while you're out with one woman" he reassured his father "or man" he added
"It's a woman, Stiles. Okay. A very beautiful woman" Noah told the three teenagers. blushing a little as he did.
"What beautiful woman, by the way?" Stiles asked
"None of your business. Either one of you"he told the two boys firmly
"Oh come on" stiles whined "don't we at least get a clue"
Noah parted his lips to respond, his breath was cut short by the abrupt yelling that came from outside his office "Stilinski! Stilinski!" A lower male voice yelled.
Noah walked by the teenagers, opening his door leading him to the main part of the station.
Alex Scott and stiles followed behind, eager to see who was causing the commotion.
He was a teenage boy, around the same age as they are. He was being held back by two deputies as he squirmed around in his cuffs
"I'm going to kill you" He spat at Noah
Noah nodded unimpressed "Donovan, if you think that shocks me, remember it was well-documented in your Anger Expression Inventory" he shot back
"Deputies, escort the prisoner out"
Donavan grunted a little in the cuffs. He glared at the sheriff, seething with anger "I'm not angry like I'm gonna throw a brick through your window. I'm angry, like I'm going to find you, I'm going to get a knife and I'm going to stab you with it until you're dead And when you look at me and you ask me why, remember right now. Because this is why"
A small silence had fallen upon the room, Alex found the teenagers act quite amusing. Especially considering it would only just add to whatever sentence he was looking at now, he had just dug himself into a deeper hole.
Stiles crossed his arms "Wow, that was awesome. That was awesome. That was great. We do one more, Give us another one, maybe like Christopher Walken this time, you know, Okay, you know what? It's fine. You'll have plenty of time to work on it when you're in your tiny, little cell, you know. Just stuck there, forever." Stiles antagonized Donavan further
Alex looked at her boyfriend, as stupid as it was of him to antagonize the boy further she found it nice that he had stood up for his father, just perhaps next time he could do it in a more mannerly way.
Donovan looked at stiles, he was full with rage toward the sarcastic boy. His eyes averted to Noah, the anger bubbling over lunged towards the sheriff, hoping to get close enough.
Stiles put his arm in front of Alex in instinct. Scott took a stand in front of the two.
Alex found it humorous that she was the one being protected when she could probably do the most damage without claws or fangs.
Noah stepped forward Holding his hand out to protect the teenagers who stood behind him "Get him out of here!" He ordered
Alex stood shocked "he's a very mad person"
"What's the hell's an Anger Expression Inventory?" Scott asked
"It's a test you take when you're applying to become a deputy" stiles answered
The alphas eyes widened "That guy wanted to be a cop?"
"At least now he's getting the full law enforcement experience" stiles remarked sarcastically
*
After stiles eventually got his car started and filled Alex and Scott in on the whole desert wolf situation, he had set out to take them home but when a call was sent through on the radio about murder on the freeway, well needless to say stiles took a bit if departures.
Dragging Scott and Alex to a crime seen with all arrows pointing towards donavan.
A van had been tipped over, one officer dead and another in crucial condition. Donovan had assumingely fled from the scene.
"Scott, you saw this kid, Donovan. He... He wasn't like you, right?" Noah asked
Scott shook his head "I don't think so"
"Unless he knows how to hide his scent." Stiles pointed out
"Well, human or otherwise, this kid might have just murdered his lawyer and mortally wounded two officers" Noah explained.
"We've got an APB out on him, but you think you can find him faster?" He asked Scott
"I can try" Scott nodded
"All right" Noah handed the wolf a radio "Keep it on channel two"
Scott nodded, clipping the radio to himself, he ran down the road from the hectic crime scene.
Alex looked around and spotted Lydia with Malia and Kira, most likely getting questioned about how they had ended up here.
Alex walked away from the sheriff and stiles, She has assumed that Lydia had led them here, that's the first time since the dead pools that Lydia had a banshee feeling, Alex had given up on the idea of regular senior year.
"Hey" Alex greeted her friends "are you all okay?"
"Yeah. We are fine" Lydia nodded
"Next time you have one of your banshee feelings, do it when I'm not driving" malia scolded her
"You really think he did it?" Kira asked
Alex nodded "definitely. You should have seen him at the station, I swear if they had let him go he would have attacked stiles dad on the spot"
"So much for a normal school year" Kira remarked
Alex scoffed "not one year since I've come to this town has It been at all normal"
Minutes had passed, the girls talking and conspiring up answers for what had happened tonight.
After what felt like forever, a signal came through on the radio grabbing everyone's attention almost immediately.
"Scott is that you?" Noah asked
"Yeah, I found Donovan. He's completely freaked out. He keeps saying some name"
"What name?" Noah asked
"Tracy. He keeps saying Tracy" he replied
"Tracy who?" Noah asked
Lydia sighed, recognizing the name "Stewart. Tracy Stewart" Lydia told him
...
The pack stood around the hood of a yellow school bus, far enough away so no one else could hear their conversations about the occurring supernatural problems.
The morning started off with them trying to work out a plan in regards to Tracy, she was assumed to be supernatural and they had to try and find her before anyone else did.
They found out from Lydia that Tracy was having extremely vivid night terrors, she had gone as far as talking to ms Martin about it. Ten minutes into the session and she was throwing up black liquid, with bird feathers.
Lydia sighed "Tracy wasn't just having trouble sleeping. It was a real disorder. It was night terrors"
"Well, now she's the night terror. Especially since no one can find her" he huffed
Scott spoke up, hoping to ease their minds "Okay, I know we're all tired and miserable..." his eyes casted towards the new member who was bright eyed and bushy tailed.
His name was mason, he was Liams best friend and the pack had given permission for him to confide in his best friend months ago. He just chose last night to do it.
"Except for you."
Mason chuckled, feeling excitement surge through him "Oh. I'm sorry. This is all just mind-blowing. You're a kitsune. I don't even know what that is."
"I'm still learning" Kira mumbled.
Isaac rolled his eyes at the new kids enthusiasm, Alex noticed and gave him a nudge from where she was standing.
Having someone new might actually be of benefit to them, someone fresh who can come at things differently. Make things for positive
"Liam, we said you could tell him. Not invite him to the inner circle" stiles deadpanned
Alex frowned at her boyfriend "Aw I think it's cute. He's so excited"
"Of course you do" stiles head shook.
"Uh, I'm in the inner circle?" Mason asked nearly jumping with joy
"No" Liam stiles and Isaac all told him at once. Their voices booming against each other
"Guys, look, back to Tracy." The alpha backtracked. "She's just one lone wolf. We can find her"
"One lone serial-killing wolf" malia corrected
"Uh, she only killed one person, you know. The other two were mauled." Stiles added
"All right, what do we do when we catch her?" Isaac asked
"I say we put her down" malia suggested.
Everyone glanced towards the alpha, wondering if he had the answer to isaacs question, or rather one that involve killing anyone
Mason stared with wide eyes "intense"
Alex smiled at new boy "I like you"
"Guys, let's concentrate on catching her first. We'll figure out the rest later" Scott told the pack
The bell rang from inside the school, ending the group discussion. Each one splitting off to class.
Alex walked along side Lydia, scott and Kira to Ap bio.
"Did you do the reading?" Alex asked Lydia.
Scott's eyes widened "we had reading?"
"Yeah" his girlfriend nodded
"she gonna kill me" he frowned
"I'm sure she won't even ask you" Alex reassured the wolf.
They walked into the class, all the other students found their seats.
As Alex walked towards her desk, Lydia pulled her back "tell me I misheard Kira yesterday?" She asked
"you and Theo-.."
"Oh my god" Alex groaned
She exhaled unimpressed "It was sophomore year it was one party i was just about to move here" she repeated what she felt had been said a million times
"I barely recognized him when he showed up, that'll tell you how "memorable" it was" she told her best friend
Lydia chuckled "I'm sorry I had to ask"
She glimpsed back at Theo and then looked at ales "You know him right?" She asked
Alex nodded "Yeah, we went to school together in San Francisco. He was really good friends with ally and I" she told her
Lydia softened her tone "Did he know about...
Alex nodded "yeah. We actually had a really good talk a couple nights ago, he was a dick though" she lied.
Lydias eyes widening and steam about to come out of her ears until Alex gestured to the listening wolf.
Lydia rolled her eyes, returning to her seat.
Alex took her seat beside Theo, opening her book on the designated page "you know, it's considered rude when your werewolf friend uses his super hearing"
"Where you'd hear that?" He asked
She shrugged "I read it somewhere, it effects a lot of teenagers"
Theo shook his head sniggering a little under his breath "I'll take that into consideration"
Alex smiled. Truth be told, she enjoyed having him back, she liked having someone she knew before beacon hills.
The sound of heals clicking echoed down the hallways and into the class room as ms Finch entered, with an oddly happy smile.
"I will be giving back your tests today, I'm glad to see some of you have tried..." she scanned around the room, "I will be suggesting to some of you where my drop forms are" she told the classes
She picked up the pile of papers and began passing them out.
"Alex" ms finch beckoned on healer.
Alex looked up nervous to get her result "Well done" she smiled and handed her the test
Alex turned over her test, smiling at her 98% grade.
"Congratulations" Theo whispered to her
"What you get?" She asked
"89" he replied
Alex winced "better look next time" she teased
Theo rolled his eyes at her "okay ms 10% higher"
Alex flipped her hair "haters stay hating"
"Nice to see where your priorities are" ms finch congratulated Scott, the class falling quiet as she spoke
"Scott. Since you have such a good grasp of the subject, how about you lead us in a review of last night's reading."
Scott hesitated "uh..sure
Of course now would be the one time he got asked. He couldn't exactly explain why he didn't do it as "I was chasing after a homicidal teenager but instead found a supernatural teenager" was not exactly believable.
He flicked through the pages, trying to remember what page it was .
His eyes Averted to the door, when his beta showed up needing his attention. His eyes quickly landing on the book again.
Alex spotted his eyes moving and looked over to see Liam standing sneakily at the door.
"Scott?" Ms finch asked slowly losing her patience.
"Sorry, just looking for the page." He apologized, glancing back at the door.
Alex's eyes drifted towards Theo, noticing that he too was listening to whatever Liam was saying.
She nudged his arm, taking his attention.
Theo looked at her, worried she'd wonder why he was listening
"What's he saying?" She asked
"He hasn't said anything yet"
"Scott?" The teacher questioned once again.
"Yeah, one sec. sorry " he apologized once again.
Ms finch was more then ready to snap at the Student.
Nevertheless Scott McCall still continued to take his time. He once again looked back at the door and rubbed his earlobe to tell Liam he was listening.
Alex watched as ms finch slowly lost her patients with the McCall boy.
She shot her hand up in efforts to save her friend but as she did the fire alarm coincidentally went off.
"Alright students, you know the drill" mrs finch sighed.
All students stood from their seats, grabbing their belongings knowing it was a drill and there was no reason to worry
Alex hurried to the front of the class, "what is it?"
"Tracy's in mr yukimoras history" Scott gulped
Alex nodded "okay let's go"
She tapped the red head on her shoulder, Lydia turned to face Alex "can you go find Isaac, he'll need to help her out of here?"
"Yeah of course" Lydia nodded
Scott and alex made their way to the door, pushing through crowds of students who were moving annoyingly slow for a fire alarm.
They made it to the class, rushing in they seen Tracy had a tight grip of a girls wrist.
Scott and Alex approached her slowly, as to not scare her.
"Tracy." Scott spoke with a calm tone "Tracy"
Tracy ignore he beckoning, tightening her grip around the girls wrist, she let out small cries as her wrist became more painful
Alex walked over to the desk, crouching in front of Tracy she hoped to convince her that she was in the real world.
"Hey Tracy.." she said in a soothing tone "I know right now you think you are dreaming, but this is real all of it. You are in a classroom okay"
Tracy looked at around her, her breath becoming he heavier as her nightmare went on
"What's your name?" Alex asked the girl that Tracy had taken hostage off.
"Hayden" she whimpered
"Tracy, let go."
Hayden let out a small cry "Hey, you're hurting me." She whimpered
"Tracy I know you don't wanna hurt anyone but you are hurting Hayden, can you please let go of her?" Alex asked calmly.
Tracy finally released her grip on Hayden's arm, blood dripped from the girls arms but she insisted she was okay
"They're coming." Tracy muttered "They're coming for all of us."
Tracy's body fell limp, she landed on the ground. Her mouth gaped open, she oozed a silver substance.
*
Alex stayed behind at the school, after informing Lydia on what has happened they had a brief conversation with Liam on who could have bit her, Kira reminded them of the oldest alpha in town. Liam took off to talk to Brett, whilst Lydia Kira and alex made their way to Tracy's house, hoping the banshee would get some sort of feeling.
They approached the door to Tracy's room, Kira stopped the banshee from opening it "Hold on." She stopped "Isn't this like a crime scene or something?"
"No." Lydia shook
She pushed open the door, regretting her previous statement as she stared at the yellow crime scene tape that was stuck from corner to corner on Tracy's bed
"Maybe." She changed her answer "Don't worry about it."
"Not the first time we've trespassed a crime scene" Alex shrugged, looking around the nicely decorated room
" Okay, so what are we looking for?" Kira asked
"I am not sure." Lydia replied, walking over to the lamp at the side of her bed, switching it on "I'm mostly just following a feeling."
"Your feelings usually lead to dead bodies." Kira pointed out
Lydia sighed Turing to face the girl "Well, let me know if you find one" she said, un phased by statement
*
Evening had fallen over the town, darkness slowly taking over the sky. The three girls stood, looking through a box of Tracy's things, hoping that something would spark an answer.
"Hey, look at this." Kira held up a card
"Remember, TracyBear, it only works if you believe it. Hope this helps. Love, Dad." She read out
Alex frowned, picking up the dream Catcher that came with the card.
"This is beyond depressing." The Japanese girl spoke
Lydia sighed "He was just trying to help her."
"The poor girl" Alex sympathized
"Why would she go after him like that?" Kira asked
"I guess she wasn't in control of herself." Lydia shrugged
"But it wasn't even a full moon."
"Maybe a werewolf with night terrors is worse than a..." Lydias sentence drifted as her mind wandered.
"Lydia what is it?" Alex asked
Lydia took the dream catcher from Alex's hands "You know, there are cases of people who accidentally murdered their entire family while in a night terror. They had no idea what they were doing. It's called a homicidal somnambulism.
"So if Tracy's killing people she doesn't really want to kill, she might not actually be awake." Kira guessed
"She's still in a night terror."
Lydia scanned over the drawings that were pinned against Tracy's wall.
Kira paced back and forth, trying to work out a plausible solution for their situation.
Alex watched as kiras mind though of every answer possible .
"Okay, wait a second." Kira stopped pacing "Her dad was just trying to help her, right?" She asked
"So was her psychiatrists" Alex added
"And maybe that's why she was at the school. She was looking for someone else who was just trying to help." Kira pieced together "oh maybe it was you?!" She exclaimed, a little too enthusiastically
Lydia turned and faced the girl, unsure of her statement.
"Or not" Alex disagreed "you know, that would mean she'd want to kill Lydia"
"No, she's right." Lydia nodded "I was trying to help. But... So was someone else... My mother."
"What if Tracy went to the school looking for her?" Lydia asked
"Where is she now?" Alex asked
"On a date."
