Chris was on the roof, it was the last stop to connect the surveillance cameras. "Stiles, try it now," Chris says and we put on the computers, seeing the camera surveillance. "We got it," I say and Stiles hangs up.

"Try Malia again," I say and Stiles tries Malia again, but it goes to voicemail. "Is that supposed to look like that?" Liam asks and I look at a no-signal screen. "No, no it's not supposed to look like that," Stiles says and I look at it. "Where is that?" Kira asks.

"The roof, someone's gotta check it out," Stiles says and Kira nods. "I'll go," she says and she runs away. Chris was walking through the hospital, so he can't check it. "Whoa, whoa, this might not be a malfunction, maybe Skye should go," he says and I look at him.

"I'll go and that's why I'm bringing this," she says and shows her sword. I grab a paper and write down where the malfunction is, just to be sure. "You got this Kira," I say and Liam runs after her. "I'm coming with you!" He yells and Stiles sighs.

"And you're both coming right back! Kids..." he says and I laugh. "Skye," Stiles says and I nod. "Yeah I know, I'm not focused, I'm not paying attention, I know I'm screwing up! You don't have to remind me!" I yell the last part in frustration and he looks surprised.

"I wa- I was gonna say you dropped your pen," he says and I look down. "Oh," I say and he sighs. "I think I might have misjudged Liam," I say and Stiles frowns. "What? What do you mean?" He asks and I run my fingers through my hair.

"Remember my brother Brett? He told me Liam cheated on me. I believed him and broke up with Liam the same day without hearing his story, I was mad because he pretended like he didn't knew what happened. Turns out he actually didn't know what happened because he didn't cheat," I say and Stiles frowns.

"I- your brother lied?" He asks and I nod. "And I feel so stupid. He doesn't even admit it, he didn't even admit he was wrong!" I say feeling tears of anger. "And then Scott thinks I'm a murderer, Liam hates me, you all think I'm invincible and I can't-" I yell the last part and look down.

"I can't stop thinking I made the wrong choice," I say and look down. "If I would've listened-" I start, but Stiles cuts me off. "You can't live in 'what if?' Skye, talk to Liam and maybe you two can figure it out, together," he says and I nod.

"I can say the same for you," I say and he smiles sheepishly and before he can reply the lights go out, making all the cameras disconnect. "We have to go to Chris," I say thinking fast and he nods. We run downstairs - it hurt like hell - and when I see him I run towards him, only to get a gun pointed at me.

I quickly duck in case he shoots, but he lowers it again, sighing. "The power's out in the whole building, I lost all the cameras," Stiles says and I bite my lip, worried.

"Stay with Scott, text me if you see or hear anything," he says and I nod. I see we have 18 minutes left and we run.

"Come on, come one, answer the phone, Argent, come on," Stiles says minutes later when we are at Scott's dead body. "Come on Argent answer the phone, why aren't you answering the phone?" Stiles was pacing, but I saw something move in the corner of my eyes and I pull out my knife, ready to throw, only to see Chris thrown on the floor.

"Stiles run!" He yells and looks at me. "Skyler get out of here," he says groaning and I look at Kate. "Are you kidding me?" I say and Chris gets up, standing between us.

"Get out of the way Stiles, I'm taking the body," she says and Stiles stands in front of Scott's dead body, protecting it. "Why? Visual confirmation?" He asks and Kate shakes her head.

"Don't worry handsome, I'm not the benefactor," she says and I stand in front of Stiles, ready to defend us. "Then what do you want with the body?" Chris asks and I look at her. "I wish I could tell you," she says and steps forward.

Chris steps between us and Kate grabs one of his arms, but he takes a gun with the other. "I always forget you carry two," she says and he's holding it against her throat.

"Back off!" Chris hisses, but Kate doesn't seem to impressed. "You sure you can pull the trigger fast enough?" She asks and I frown. "I don't want to," he says and I look at Stiles.

"You're not going to kill me," he looks worried. "I'm not gonna let you take his body," Chris says louder and Stiles scratches the back of his neck, nervous. "It's obvious you guys have a lot to talk about, so maybe... I saw some coffee a vending machine outside," Stiles says and I roll my eyes. Seriously?

"Listen to me Kate. We have a plan," Chris says and Kate looks at me. "And if killing Scott was part of it, you're worse than me," she says and I shake my head, raising my eyebrows.

"He's telling the truth. We're trying to get to the Benefactor," I say and look at her. "If you didn't notice you're on that list too, and worth more than most," he says and Kate snaps.

"That's why I'm here!" She says and Chris gets angry...er. "Then back off and let us do what we planned!" He yells and I look at her. She turns his arm and looks at the clock, that shows 3 minutes left.

"Take the berserkers and go," Chris starts. "Kate please," he begs and I look down. "We have a plan," he says and I see Kira running in.

She does her trick and I see Kate leave. Scott yells and he gasps looking at Kira. They kiss and he looks at me. "What happened? Did it work?" He asks and I look at Stiles. Liam runs in and I frown. "What?" Kira asks and he is awfully clean.

"It's your mother, she's hurt," he says and I frown. Shit.

. . .

Kira went to check up on her mother and we all went home.

I could go home, but i can't stop thinking about how I acted towards Liam. "Liam?" I ask and he turns around. "What." He says coldly and look down. "I guess I deserve that, um can I come with you? We need to talk," I say and he nods.

"Again? What, you're gonna try and kill me again?" He asks and I look at him. "Please, Liam?" I ask and he nods. "Okay," he says and we get to my car.

He gets inside and I drive to his house. The ride there was silent, but it gave me time to clear my head. Once in his room we sit down on the edge of his bed.

"I believe you," I start and look at him. "What?" He asks and I look down. "I believe, when you say you didn't cheat. I mean I... I believed my brother more, but turns out he's just liar." I say and break down in sobs.

"I'm sorry, for all the shit I put you through," I say and look down. "It's all my fault. If I didn't... if I could've listened to your side then maybe we could have figured this out together." I say and look at him.

"And now you're not saying anything, probably thinking how crazy I am," I say and he shakes his head. "You're not crazy... and I don't blame you. I love you, Skyler. I never stopped loving you," he says and I close my eyes, biting my lip.

"I love you too," I say and he smiles. "Can I stay over tonight?" I ask and he nods, hugging me. I lay down on the bed and close my eyes, feeling too tired to even change.

"Skye you have to change," he whispers and I shake my head. "For me?" He asks softly and I look at him, nodding. "For you."
