Mermaid in Beacon Hills Season Five

Parasomnia

     Victoria and Stiles had many things happen to them the past couple of years. From Alpha werewolves, Kanimas, Assassins, Evil Spirits, etc.. The thought of a vacation sounding better and better. Looking into destinations on her laptop, trying to decide from the beach or the mountains. "The beach, I will sprout a tail if I am not careful, the mountains are pretty though." unsure I close my laptop and call Lydia. "Hey Victoria." Lydia answers while she bends down to paint her toenails putting her friend on speaker. "Okay Senior Trip with the Pack, preferably far, far, far, away from Beacon Hills ?" I ask leaving the question in the air. "What of us being gone and havoc ensues ?" she replies. "I mean that thought is out there yeah but...we are not going to be living in this town forever Lydia. You and I both know that." I tell her while I stand looking through my book and notes of fun destinations you can take with your friends.

   "I mean look at this, we can go to Florida, I have the money to pay for all the plane tickets and our stay." I say while Lydia chokes on air she tries to breathe in before replying. "How in the hell did you come into that much money Victoria ?" Lydia asks. "Well you are forgetting I am a Hale, I also helped Scotts mom with her bills, Scott doesn't know but I have them caught up for a year. So Melissa can save up money. Stiles Dad, I paid some of his medical bills and Stiles'."  I say smiling through the phone. "Wow you're doing these things as if you're leaving for good Victoria." Lydia giggles while I remain silent. "You're not leaving for good are you ? You're my bestfriend Victoria, I already lost one friend, I can't lose another one." Lydia cries into the phone while I smile sadly.
"Lydia I'm not going to be gone forever, I am a princess after all, I have a kingdom to run for a bit." I reply before I hear a rock being thrown at my window. "Lydia I will discuss everything in full detail with you later but I have to go, someone is throwing rocks at my window." saying bye I hang up before standing up. Looking out the window I see Liam smiling sheepishly up at me. Walking away from my window I turn the knob to my door heading down the hall before making it to my front door. Opening it, Liam stands there with his friend Mason. "Who do I owe the honor of this visit ?" I question.  "Victoria, Mason knows."  "You could have knocked on my front door like a normal person, come in."

"What the hell is wrong with you Liam ?!" whisper shouting at the beta with distaste. "Now who am I to judge who you tell but you need to take it up with Scott first. Telling the wrong people can cause a lot of problems for us." I say while glancing over to Mason who shrugs an awkward wave. "Buttt Mason is cool, if he tells anyone though, I will kill him." I reply.  "You wont actually kill me, will you ?" Mason asks growing a little scared of the girl in front of him.  "I have done it before I can do it again." I shrug indifferently while Mason gulps. "What are you ? Liam told me who some of what the pack is but he left you out." Mason asks after a tense couple seconds of silence. With a smirk I look at Liam. "I can show you better than I can tell you."

Walking up to a deep part of the flowing creek, I hear Masons pulse jump a bit. "If you are a water bender my childhood dreams are coming alive !" he says excitedly while I look back at him. Turning back to the water I find a deep spot before diving in. "oh shit !" Mason shouts before I resurface after ten seconds. Swimming over to him Masons jaw drops and he sinks down to sit on a boulder. "You're a, a," rolling my eyes I open my eyes wide. "Mer..maid, Mermaid. I am a mermaid mason but mostly a siren." I say before flashing my silver eyes. Looking at Liam I roll my eyes. "At least he took it better than Stiles." I giggle.  "Liam help me out." Easily pulling me out I dry off.  Masons eyes open wide again while I stand up dusting myself off. "What else can you do ?" he asks in amazement. "This." taking my pendent in my hands willing it to turn into my Trident. "woah !" Mason says before twisting it around my body and pointing it up to the sky sending off lightning.  "That's not all I can do, we need to go someone is watching us." I say looking into the woods while Liam follows my line of sight. "Keep your eye on Mason and get out of here now." I whisper to Liam. "What about you ?" Liam asks grabbing my arm looking back into the woods hearing the twig snapping. "Do as I say Liam ! Call Scott !" Turning back to the woods I conceal myself and walk on the rocks. "Woah  She just..." "Mason Not the time !" Liam shouts pulling out his phone to call Scott. "What do you mean she took after something or someone in the woods ?!" Stiles shouts looking over to Liam who glares at him. "She told us to leave and to call Scott." Liam replies before Stiles' phone rings. "Oh thank god Victoria where are you ?"

"Victoria calm down, you're speaking too fast, what, holes, where ?" Pulling up to the preserve Stiles and Scott jump out while Scott smells for Victoria's scent.  "I got her scent but its faint." Scott replies before they begin walking in the woods. "Do you think its supernatural ?" Liam asks Scott who joined them after dropping off Mason back home. "Let's not think that until we see it for ourselves." Scott says before they stop in a somewhat clearing. Spotting his girlfriend near a hole Stiles walks over to her seeing the holes for himself. "what the hell ?"  "Yeah I know I was tracking the scent I caught for awhile, it lead me here." Victoria replies before crouching down seeing something that has her standing back up to her full height quickly. Turning to Stiles her eye are wide. "Whoever was buried here dug themselves out." She says before looking at Scott.
"We have two holes here, there could be more around."

"How can someone survive being buried alive ?" Liam questions looking at Victoria. "I have no idea but were going to find out."

"Her names Tracy, she suffers from night terrors and sleep walking." Lydia says while I glance over to the girl in question. "And how did you find that out ?" I ask looking back into my locker to get what I needed for class. "I overheard her talking about it with her sister who works down at the station." Lydia replies. "So you think she's like you ?" closing my locker we head to class. "I don't know for sure. I mean I could ask but she might think I am crazy." Lydia says while I look over to her. "I know we have had a crazy time in this town since we met, but you are from crazy, you're far more sane then the rest of us." I say before we take our seats in AP biology. "Have you heard from your family ?"  Lydia asks while I glance over to her. "Yeah they bought a house near Quantico, so I can see Stiles when, when I am back from out of town." I reply before smiling at her.  Scott glances back to me with a smile while I put a finger to my lips. "Don't tell him please." I whisper under my breath while he nods before paying attention to the teacher. I know we had a lot happen. I know we lost people, great people. But if I knew of the new dangers hiding behind a nice smile and a pretty face, I would've ripped his heart out a long time ago.
