"I get it, I know what you're trying to do." Mrs. Finch nodded her head.
"You do?" Liam asked.
"You're upset, you both are. You want to get back at me." She said.
"Upset?" Liam questioned.
"Because I stood by and I did nothing for what Gabe and Nolan did to the two of you." She said. "I'm an adult and I should have protected you."
"No!" Liam said. "No, I mean, yeah, but no that's not why we're here. I know about your pack."
"My what?" She asked.
"We know what you are." I said.
"Guys...I..."
"You're a werewolf." Liam stated.
She chuckled, "A what?"
"A person who turns into a wolf on a full moon." Liam said.
"Oh, God. Yeah, right. And I can probably only be killed by a silver bullet."
"No, no, that's not totally true." I said.
"Are you guys on drugs?" She asked.
"Are you?" I asked.
"Well I know your father is a surgeon at the hospital."
"We're not on drugs! Mrs. Finch, you're a werewolf."
"Hydrocodone?"
"You have a pack." Liam said.
"Oxycodone?"
"You said it on the phone." Liam said.
"That's enough." She said.
"You can't hide what you are." I said.
"I don't know what you're talking about but you really need to go, now." She said. "You need to leave this classroom right now, and Blaire you need to get back to work."
We didn't move.
"You have to leave my class. Go!"
"No." I shook my head.
"Hey, it's me again." The phone spoke.
I looked over my shoulder and smiled at Scott.
"I, uh, don't know why you can't seem to call me back. Maybe it's because you think you're punishing me. But this is too long. It's too much. And it's not about us. Something's happening in Beacon Hills, to the people here." Scott walked towards us. Mrs. Finch took the phone, slamming it shut.
"Where did you find this?" She asked.
Scott looked at her as I stood up straight.
---------------
I left Liam and Scott to interigate Mrs. Finch some more while I passed out the detention slips. I walked down the hall and opened the door to Coach's room. He had his class taking a test.
"Dunbar." He said. "What do you want? I'm trying to give a test."
"Detention slips." I said.
"Go ahead, these kids need some discipline."
I smiled and handed them out to the kids. I was about to walk out.
"Wait, dunbar." Coach said.
"What's up?"
"Come into my office." He told me.
I followed him into his office and shut the door.
"Are you and little dunbar okay?" He asked.
I nodded, "We're fine."
"You sure?" He asked.
"Yeah, of course. Why?"
"Just want to make sure." He said.
I smiled, "We're doing just fine coach, but thanks for asking."
He nodded and we walked out of his office. I walked out of his room and turned to walk down the hall when I saw Gabe. His arms were crossed over his chest. I stopped where I was and lifted my chin up, staring at him.
My phone began to ring in my pocket. I reached for it, putting it to my ear as I answered.
"Hello?" I said.
"Her daughter is Quinn." Scott said.
"What?" I asked.
"Get back here, now." He said.
"I'm on my way." I said.
I shoved my phone back in my pocket and ran in the direction Gabe was, to get back to Mrs. Finch's room.
"Slow down killer." Gabe caught my arm.
"I need to go." I said.
"I need to give you this first." He said.
"What?" I asked.
He pulled something out of his pocket. It was a phone.
"What is this?" I asked.
"It's his phone." He told me.
"Whose phone?"
"Brett's." He answered.
I grabbed it from him, "Why did you have this?"
"Monroe took it." He said. "But I thought you deserved it."
I looked up at him, "Thank you."
"Don't say I didn't do anything for you." He said.
I nodded and ran down the hall to the classroom.
"I'm here." I said. "Catch me up."
------------
We sat in the school, In Mrs. Finch's classroom until it fell dark outside. The wind blew harder outside. I looked over at Scott as I heard a door open.
Liam walked around the tables, over towards the door.
"That's her, isn't it?" Mrs. Finch asked. "Well what do you plan on doing?"
I crossed my arms over my chest, pulling my jacket tighter around me.
"Shh." Liam hushed as Scott stood.
"You're not going to try to hurt her, are you? That's my daughter."
"We're gonna do what we have to do." Liam told her.
"What exactly does that mean?"
"Just stay back." Scott said.
"And shut up." I told her.
She took a step back and shut her mouth.
"Liam?" Scott asked.
"Ready." My brother told him.
"Blaire?" Scott asked.
"You're joking, right?" I said.
"We need your help." Scott said.
"Fine." I said as I flashed my eyes, just as Mrs. Finch jumped at my brother. She hit him with the eraser covered in wolfsbane, same with Scott.
"Wolfsbane doesn't work on me." I told her.
"Maybe not." She said and threw her hand up, hitting my jaw. I stumbled back, hitting my back on a table. She ran out of the classroom, down the hall.
"What the hell?" I asked, holding my face. I ran over to Scott and my brother. I helped Liam sit up. There was a shriek as I pulled Liam to his feet.
"Lets go." I said.
We ran down the hall, just as Quinn ran away. Mrs. Finch was on the ground.
"I'll stay, you two go."
"Scott, we need you too." I said.
"I can't leave her."
"Then, I'll stay, you guys go." I said.
"No, Blaire." Scott said. "Look you two work good together, go."
"What if she finds Aaron first?" Liam asked.
"It's okay to be afraid, don't let it stop you." Scott said. "Go."
"Come on." I said and grabbed my brothers arm, running down the hall.
There was more werewolf screams as I looked to my brother and pulled him. We ran into the library. Quinn stood on the other side.
"Plan?" I asked.
"Don't have one." He said
Liam growled, "Stay afraid. Stay afraid."
That's when Aaron appeared.
"Liam." I said.
The two stood side by side. Liam released his claws and fangs, sending a growl.
I flashed my eyes. Liam jumped up on the tables and ran at them. He jumped to attack but Quinn threw him back.
I tilted my head and ran at her. I blocked her hits, hitting her in the face. She growled and threw me back into a book case.
I groaned as I slid down. I watched as the two made out, then started to fight. Aaron beat her, knocking her to the floor. Aaron watched me as his eyes glew a purpled color. I stood up slowly as he started shifting.
I watched in fear as Liam stood too. He became something else, something far more scarier.
"Liam." I said and ran over to him. "We need to go."
"No Blaire."
"Yes Liam." I heard Lydia's voice as she pulled us back.
"We have to run." She said.
"Come on." I grabbed Liam up from the ground as we ran behind Lydia into the school.
"What are you doing? Quinn and Aaron merged, we have to stop them."
"You can't." Lydia said. "You can't look at it. If you do, it'll kill you. Even Blaire."
--------------
"How do we fight something we can't look at?" Liam asked as I circled around the two dead bodies on the ground. They were turned to stone/
"I have no idea." Lydia said.
"We have to learn how to fight without our eyes." Scott said as he and Malia walked up.
"Fight without seeing, that means...." Malia traveled.
"Deucalion." I said.
---------------
Liam and I went back home, our mom was passed out in the bedroom. Our dad was still at the hospital. I walked into my room, Liam followed.
He spotted the crib.
"You already have that set up?" He asked.
"Mom set it up for me." I told him.
"This must be confusing as hell for her." He said.
"I know." I shook my head. "I hate it."
A tear rolled down my face.
"Blaire?" Liam asked.
"What's wrong?"
"I hate it." I said. "I hate all of this. Being scared to actually die. Being scared to loose you, the baby, Lydia, Scott, Malia, Theo, Mason, Corey, everyone."
My brother wrapped his arms around me.
"I don't think I can do this anymore." I cried.
"I know you can Blaire."
"How?"
"Because, I've known you one hundred percent of my life. I know you, I know that you can do this."
I pulled back and wiped my face and smiled at him.
"How come you're the one with all the good advice?" I asked.
He shrugged, "get some sleep."
"You too." I told him as he walked out of my bedroom. I shut the door behind him.
