"What happened to my son?!" Alannah could hear Melissa's cries from the second floor all the way down in the morgue, where she stands patiently with everyone else. 

This plan carries too much risk, yet here the group is doing it. 

Alannah's stomach twists as she looks down at the lifeless body of Scott McCall, one of her closest friends.

 "I still hate this plan." Melissa states once she enters the morgue, "I mean, this is pretty, significantly terrifying. He looks dead."

 "He's not." Stiles promises, resting a comforting hand on her shoulder. 

"Okay, how much time to do we have?" Melissa questions.

 "About forty-five minutes now." Noshiko or Kira's mom explains. 

"And what happens after that?" Kira answers the question, standing next to Liam.

 "I bring him back the same way." Melissa further questions, "What happens if he stays like this longer than forty-five minutes?" 

"No one told her?" Lydia voices.

 "What?" Melissa immediately demands. 

The Noshiko reveal what happens after a painful pause, "He dies."


Scott McCall Dead. Payment Requested.

Visual confirmation is required. Came the next message on the computer.


"Type this," Argent instructs Stiles. 

Chris had finally returned to Beacon Hills when he heard what was going on with the Deadpool.

 'Visual confirmation isn't possible. Police coming to claim body in forty minutes.' Another response comes in though asking for visual evidence.

 Chris grunts in annoyance before stating "Tell him number two on the list is dead. I killed him. And if the wire transfer isn't complete in forty minutes I'm coming after you." 

The group had split up to deal with getting visual confirmations. 

Of course, Alannah and Stiles are paired together. 

The blonde is growing anxious and slightly bored looking at the cameras, so she turns to Stiles.

 "You look really good today." She voices taking in his appearance. 

Stiles gives her a look like 'Are u serious.' 

To which she replies "Yeah, you're very hot. You're always hot." She smirks. 

"Really?" Stiles winks suggestively moving closer to the blonde. 

She nods her head enthusiastically as a giggle leaves her lips. 

Just as Stiles is about to connect his lips with hers the lights begin to flicker. 

"Are you doing this?" he questions her. 

"Why on earth would I mess with the lights?" she retorts in confusion. 

"Um where'd they go?" Stiles asks with worry on his face as he looks at the now blank screens.

 "Oh, you've got to be kidding me!" he exclaims. 

"It's fine. We just need to find Argent." Alannah tells him calmly.

 The two then take off looking for Argent.

 When they find him, he instructs them to stay with Scott while he takes care of things. 

Luckily the group's plan went well, and everything ended up working out.


Two nights later and part of the gang is at bonfire party. 

Alannah scrunches up her nose as she takes a shot of tequila with Lydia. 

"Fuck." She curses, chasing it down with a mixed drink Lydia had made for her. 

"Just like old times!" Lydia cheers as she drowns a shot as well.

 Both girls didn't party like they used to once they became involved in the supernatural world, so this event is like a walk down memory lane for them.

 The girls stumble towards the table where Liam and Mason are, giggling loudly. 

"Where's Malia?" Alannah shouts over the music handing a bottle to the boys.

 Liam points over to Malia who is dancing away.

 "Oh my god MALIAAA!!" Alannah yells loudly seeing the girl. 

The three girls dance together in a fit of giggles before Scott approaches them. 

"Hi!" Lydia cheers.

 "Drink?" Alannah questions, holding up a beer bottle. 

"No thanks, trying to make sure y'all don't get hurt tonight." Scott says.

 "And why would we get hurt? Party pooper Scott!" Malia voices. 

"Why isn't Stiles with you?" the blonde questions. 

"He's trying to crack the last part of the code." Scott answers. 

"Well he kinda of needs me to do that." Lydia states. 

"I'll call him." Alannah informs the group but suddenly they all start to feel weird.

 Before they know it tall men are surrounding them.

 This whole party was a trap to try to kill them since their names are on the Deadpool. 

Derek and Taylor appear out of nowhere knocking the guys out and fighting off the others.

 "Alannah Knight, you are in serious trouble." Taylor states before waving his hand and laughing.

 "I'm just kidding. Man, that felt so weird having to be all stern on you. Now, I know you have the IQ of a genius but sometimes you do some dumb shit." He voices. 

"Well, we are still seventeen." Lydia appears next to the blonde, winking at Taylor. 

"I don't care how old you are getting drunk when a whole Deadpool is going on was not the smartest decision. Now let's get you two home." He announces as Lydia pretends to pass out so that Taylor would have to carry her back to his car. 

"Desperate." Alannah laughs to herself watching the whole ordeal.
