Camila's Pov
"You okay?" Liam asks and I nod, holding my throat and my side.

"Come on guys we've got to go." Scott says standing up.

He quickly runs out of room with Lydia, Kira, Mason and Corey, leaving me and Liam behind.

"Camila come on we've got to go." Liam says going to help me stand up.

"Go without me, I'll be there in a second." I smile at him and he nods in agreement before running off to follow the rest of the pack.

I hold my gunshot wound and I breathe in deeply as I slump my back against the wall.

Wow I've almost died 2-3 times in one night. Must be a new record.

I sigh when I hear loud screams echoing through the tunnels.

"CAMILA!" I hear a loud scream.

I jolt upright and I slowly start to get up.

"CAMILA, HELP ME!" I hear another loud scream.

I stand up fully and I start to hobble towards the direction of the sound.

"CAMILA!" the voice screams even louder.

I clutch my side as I limp into the a different tunnel where the pack are. I look at them and they're staring at the floor and I look up and see their faces. With that 'look' on them.

"I know that face." I speak up.

"What face?" Mason asks.

"We've been here before." I say.

"It's the same face you always have when something goes wrong or badly." I add.

"Camila..." Lydia begins.

"I wanna hear it from Liam." I say knowing that whatever it is will be easier coming from him.

Everyone knows that.

"Theo..." Liam starts looking at me blankly.

"What about him?" I ask.

"He's-uh...gone." Liam stammers.

I see Kira with her katana in the ground and I look at her.

"Did you do it?" I ask her and she nods.

"Okay."I say tightening my lips into a straight line before I hobble out of there, leaving behind the pack, my family and Theo.

Scott's Pov
"Come on guys we've got to go." I say standing up.

I quickly run out of room with Lydia, Kira, Mason and Corey, leaving Camila and Liam behind.

We run into another tunnel and I see everyone apart from Camila.

"Where's Camila?" I ask Liam.

"She's gonna be a sec." Liam answers.

I nod before I turn around and look at everyone.

"Is everyone okay?" I ask and they all nod.

"Not everyone!" Theo shouts, coming into the tunnel.

He has electricity running up and down him. He growls at us and angrily throws a bolt of electricity at us. Kira runs forwards and catches his electricity on her katana.

"The Skin walkers have a message for you Theo. Your sister wants to see you." Kira says, stabbing the ground with her katana.

The floor cracks open and a hole starts to appear behind Theo. Slowly a hand starts to crawl out of it. It presses into the ground and the upper half of a body lifts itself up. A girl with black hair covering her face lifts her head up and her hair falls out of her face.

It's Tara Raeken.

She leans forwards and grabs Theo's ankle with one of her hands and starts to tug at it. Theo looks down at her, scared out of his mind as he tries to shake her off of his foot. He loses his balance and he falls down onto the floor as Tara starts to tug at his legs and pulls him backwards towards the hole. He starts to claw at the floor, trying to grip onto something as Tara pulls him backwards and further towards the hole.

"CAMILA!" Theo shouts out for her as he gets pulled backwards.

"CAMILA! HELP ME!" Theo shouts as Tara pulls him into the hole.

"CAMILA!" Theo screams as the floor heals up and reveals nothing but emptiness.

Kids leaves her katana in the ground as she turns to us and looks at us. I hear footsteps echoing from the tunnels and I turn and see Camila hobbling into the tunnel, clutching her side and her neck.

She stares at us and we all look at her blankly, not knowing what to say.

"I know that face." she speaks up after analysing our faces for a few moments.

"What face?" Mason asks, clearly confused on what she is on about.

"We've been here before." Camila says.

"It's the same face you always have when something goes wrong or badly."she adds onto her previous sentence.

"Camila..." Lydia begins but Camila cuts her off almost immediately.

"I wanna hear it from Liam." she says, which doesn't surprise me at all.

Everyone knows that Camila only ever wants to hear the truth from Liam, since it makes everything easier for her.

"Theo..." Liam starts looking at Camila blankly, clearly nervous for what he's about to say.

"What about him?" Camila asks.

"He's-uh...gone." Liam stammers and I look at Camila, worried about her reaction.

I watch as Camila looks at Kira's katana, which is still in the ground, and she looks at her.

"Did you do it?" Camila asks her and Kira nods sheepishly.

"Okay."she says tightening her lips into a straight line before she hobbles out of the tunnels, leaving behind the pack.
