We all sit in Stilinski's office, being interrogated by Rafeal. Nancy stood behind with Stilinski at his desk. They were the first ones on the scene, and while we all preferred that they interrogated us. But no, we get Rafael. We all just sat in silence, we had told Kira what to say. But honestly, I had no idea what to say about whatever the hell she did. Rafael stares at us. This was awkward. "So, when did you get there?"

"At the same time." Stiles answered. "At the same time as who?"

"At the same time as me." Scott answers. "And me." I added. "By coincidence?" Rafeal said.

"What do you mean, "by coincidence?" Stiles questioned.

"That's what I'm asking you." Rafael clarified. "The four of you arrived at the same time-- was that a coincidence?"

Scott frowns. "Are you asking me?"

"I think he's asking me." I shake my head, "No, I think he's asking me." I have to try super hard to hide my laughter. I love that we're all playing the dumb card. I adjusted my jacket, I had to take off my shirt and only had my jacket to cover up. My shirt was white, and because of the whole 'getting hit by the electric cable' burned it.

"I think he's asking all of you." Lydia said. I nodded as if I understood her.

"Okay," Rafael let out a frustrated groan. "Let me answer the questions." Rafeal said, frustrated. "Let me ask the questions."

We all shrug. We had no problem with that, ha, he would however. "Just so I have this absolutely clear," Rafael began. "Barrow was hiding in the chemistry closet at the school. Someone left him a coded message on the blackboard telling him to kill Kira. Then, Barrow took Kira to a power substation and tied her up with the intent of electrocuting her, which blacked out the whole town."

We all exchanged looks, agreeing with what he said and then looked back at Rafael. "Sounds about right."

"How did you know he'd take her to a power station?"

"Well, 'cause he was an electrical engineer." Stiles said. "So, where else would he take her?"

"That's one hell of a deduction there, Stiles."

"Yeah, what can I say? I take after my pops–" Stiles said smugly. "he's in law enforcement." Stilinski snorts, quickly acting like he didn't do anything as Rafeal glares at him.

"Stiles," Stilinski said, fighting back laughter. "Just, uh... just answer the man." Stiles sighed. "We made a good guess." I nodded. A very good guess thanks to some Banshee power.

Rafeal nods, I really think he only half believed us, and looks at Scott and Kira. "What were the two of you doing?"

"Eating pizza."

"Eating sushi."

The two of them said simultaneously. Then they switched each others words,

"Eating sushi and pizza." They said simultaneously and clearly this time.

Rafeal scoffs and looks back to Nancy and Stilinski, raising an eyebrow. "You believe this?"

"To be honest, I haven't believed a word Stiles has said since he learned how to speak." Stilinski told him, Stiles waves his hand, "Aw shucks." I fight back a laugh.

"But, I think these kids found themselves in the right place at the right time," Stilinski defended us. Oh how I love having the police on our side this time. "And that girl sitting there is very lucky for it."

Rafeal sighs, he still didn't buy it. "Kira," Nancy said, seeing how unconvinced Rafeal looked, asked Kira the question that would finally let us out of here. "Is that how you remember it?"

We all looked at her. Right before the cops had arrived we took the time to explain to her that she could not tell anyone what had really happened at the substation. Because if anyone did find out, well we'd be in trouble. Kira finally nodded. "Yes."

Nancy took the answer and looked at Rafeal all smugly.

"Could I get my phone back now?" Kira asked. Rafeal shakes his head. "Sorry, but no. Kira, a deputy is going to take you home, but we need you to fill out some paperwork first."

"Cool, great," I said as I stood and grabbed my friends. We need to leave now before he decides to keep asking us some questions. "We're gonna go now bye!"

"Class starts in five minutes!" Coach yells through a megaphone. "Just because there's no power, don't expect there to be no school!"

Ugh I wish. Because the power is out in the entire damn town, there was no electricity or power. Last night before bed I lit a candle in my room to help me sleep, except I almost burned down my damn room because for some reason, the light grew! Like the little fire on the candle literally grew! I turned my back for one second.

"That was a triple negative. Very impressive, Coach." Stiles compliments. "Copy that."

"You are not a witch." Stiles said again, I told him about the whole thing. And then I told him what Isaac told me. He's been sending me a bunch of witch related stuff that is seriously making me consider the possibility. "But what if I am?"

Stiles still wasn't convinced. I sighed, "Just look." I looked around the hallway, making sure no one was watching. I then saw Coach yelling down the hallway with his megaphone. Huh. Deciding on him, I kept my hand to my side to stay hidden, jabbing two fingers in his direction. I moved my fingers slightly to the side, which made the megaphone in Coach's hands hit a wall.

I've been practicing a little bit. I crossed my arms at Stiles, who had his jaw dropped. "Are you sure about that?" Stiles' mouth moved, trying to figure out what to say but came up with nothing. "I thought so."

I have absolutely no idea how I can do what I do, but witch is the only answer I have come up with. Even though I really hope it's not true.

Scott comes to us and when he sees Kira down the hall he tries going to her and I stop him. Stiles and I have been avoiding her, I'm pretty sure she's been avoiding us as well. "Absolutely not." I really hated telling him he couldn't talk to her but he just couldn't.

"What?" Scott questioned, confused. "I need to talk to her."

I shake my head. "No, you need to remember someone left a coded message telling Barrow to kill her."

Someone must have told him about her, at first I thought the mystery person must have gotten it wrong but after what we saw at the substation, I wasn't so sure.

"Which is why I need to talk to her–"

Stiles shakes his head, siding with me. "Scott, no way! Until we figure out if she's just another psychotic monster that's going to start murdering everybody, I vote against any and all interaction!" I raised my hand, "I second that."

Scott sighs. "What if she's like us?"

I crossed my arms and raised an eyebrow. Like us? Like werewolves? "That girl walked through one-point-twenty-one jigawatts of electricity--" We would be dead if we did that. Electricity and werewolves do not mix. "She's not like us."
