"She's not dead," Derek shouted as they all sat, discussing what Issac had said.

"Derek, he said, 'There's a dead body. It's Erica,'" Stiles told him. "Doesn't exactly leave us much room for interpretation."

"Then who was in the vault with Boyd?" Derek asked.

"Someone else, obviously," Stiles responded.

"It didn't sound like Erica, anyway," Brie spoke up. "The voice sounded like a man. Or maybe it was just really distorted, I couldn't tell. Either way I didn't recognise it."

"Maybe it was the girl on the motorcycle," Scott suggested. "The one who saved you?"

"No, she wasn't like us," Issac said. "And whoever was in the vault with Boyd was."

"What if that's how Erica died?" Stiles said. "They pit them against each other during the full moons and see which one survives. It's like werewolf thunderdome."

"Then we get them out tonight," Derek said.

"Be smart about this, Derek," Deaton warned him. "You can't just go storming in."

"If Issac got in, then so can we," Derek said.

"He didn't actually get through the vault door," Brie said, thinking back at his memory. "It seemed very well guarded. It's not going to be easy."

"We need a plan," Scott spoke up.

"How are we going to come up with a plan to break into a bank vault in less than 24 hours?" Derek asked, turning to Scott.

"Uh, I think someone already did," Stiles said, looking at his phone. "'Beacon Hills First National closes its doors three months after vault robbery.' Does say here how it was robbed, but it probably won't take long to find out."

"How long?" Derek asked him.

"It's the internet, Derek," Stiles scoffed. "Okay? Minutes."

Stiles was wrong.

Stiles was very wrong.

The three of them went back to Stiles house, to do try and figure out how the bank was robbed but came back with nothing.

They all eventually fell asleep in the process.

Noah opened the door the next morning and was a bit surprised to see paper scattered everywhere across the room. But was even more surprised to see Brie fast asleep on top of Stiles while he had his arm around her.

Scott was asleep on a desk chair nearby.

Maybe they had gotten back together?

He hoped they had.

"Kids," he said, trying to wake them. They didn't move. "Hey, time to wake up."

Still nothing. "Guys."

He tried once more, louder this time. "Guys!"

They all suddenly jumped up at the noise. It took a moment for Brie to understand where she was.

They must've fallen asleep while doing research.

But why was she on top of Stiles?

She looked up as he looked down at her, both realising they must've just fallen asleep like this.

She jumped up and off the bed, trying to avoid anymore awkwadness, looking over at Scott who wore a smug smile.

Noah was also looking at them with confusion.
