Scott, Stiles, and I sat in Scott's room as he put in the tape we found in Garrett's bag.

'After entering the IP address, you will be connected through at Darknet portal to an untraceable bank. Once logged in, enter your account number to receive wire transfers. The IP address will deactivate after each transfer. You will be assigned a new IP address if you choose to continue down the list. Remember, visual confirmation is required.'

Stiles stopped the playing it and turned to Scott and I confused.

"You ever made a wire transfer?" Stiles asked me.

"No, but I'm pretty sure my adoptive parents might have. Do you want me to-" I started, but Stiles cut me off.

"No, it's fine." Scott said, "We don't want you to get involved with them again."

"Not after they left you on death bed." Stiles added.

"I never had enough money to do a wire transfer." Scott answered Stiles.

"Someone wants you guys dead, dude. Badly." Stiles remarked.

Scott then put the money back in the bag and I couldn't help but smile at this. Scott was so responsible and respectful.

"Whoa, whoa, what are you doing?" Stiles asked.

"It's late. We've got PSATs in the morning." I answered.

"No, I meant the money. $500,000. You know how much money that is?" Stiles said.

"It's 500,000." Scott said.

"No, it's half a million. Scott. What are you gonna do, just slide it under your mattress?" Stiles said.

"That's exactly what he's going to do until we give it back to Derek." I said.

"She's right. I have to talk to Derek. The money's his." Scott added.

"You mean his and Peter's." Stiles corrected.

"Will you guys just get over whatever grudge you have against him?" I exclaimed annoyed, "He's trying, alright?"

"I'm just saying that we should proceed with caution." Stiles said.

"You don't think we should tell Derek?" Scott asked, tone full of disbelief.

"No." Stiles said shortly.

"No?" I snapped, "Some of this money is his and I'm not going to keep it." I looked over and pointed in between Scott and I. "We aren't going to keep it. We're going to give it back to him."

"Of course we are going to tell him. I'm just... I'm just saying, some of the money's Peter's right?" Stiles sighed.

"Yeah." I said annoyed, "We already know that."

"Right? Peter? Homicidal killer? Remember?" Stiles said causing me to glare at him. "You want to give $500,000 to him."

"So we should just give Derek back his money, but not my dad?" I asked tone full of disbelief.

"I didn't say that." Stiles defended.

"Then what are you saying?" I asked confused.

Then there was banging on the door and Malia walked in, soaked from the rain.

"We found Satomi's pack. Derek and I. But they're dead." Malia informed us.

"Satomi?" I said, "Why does that name sound so familiar?"

"She's Brett's Alpha." Stiles answered and I nodded in understanding, but I still couldn't shake off the feeling that I knew her.

"All of them?" I asked Malia.
