EDITED

"I need your help." Allison appeared next to Johanna as she was walking toward her next class. Johanna looked at the hand that Allison had placed on her upper arm. "You need my help?" Johanna looked at the brunette amused. "Yes, one of my friends is in trouble with Derek's pack." Allison pulled the huntress into the a nearby office. "Derek's outside waiting for Lydia." Scott's voice was the first thing that hit Johanna's ears as Allison slammed the door shut behind them. 

"Which one's Lydia again?" Johanna looked at her cousin in feigned confusion. "Why is she here?" Scott looked at the huntress alarmed causing Johanna to smirk. "Waiting to kill her?" Allison ignored Scott's question as Johanna looked around the dark and musty office. "If he thinks she's the Kanima then yes, especially what happened at the pool." Scott answered Allison, causing the brunette to sigh. "I'm sorry, Kanima?" Johanna looked at Allison wide-eyed. "That's what killed Bennett? And you want my help to protect it, hell no!" Johanna's anger immediately spiked at the new information.

"It's not her!" Stiles defended the strawberry-blonde, glancing between Scott and the Argent girls. "Stiles, she didn't pass the test, man. Nothing happened." Scott whispered to his best friend, trying not to give Johanna any more information after Allison dragged her into the situation. "No, it can't be her." Stiles shook his head at the idea. "Well, it doesn't matter if you think it's her if Derek thinks it's her." Johanna pushed her way back into the conversation. "So either we can convince him that he's wrong or we've got to figure out a way to protect her." Allison proposed as she looked at Scott. Johanna remained silent, she wasn't sure how Allison saw bringing her into this as smart. If Lydia was the monster going around killing people, they wouldn't have to worry about Derek, she'll take the teenage girl out herself.

"Well, I really don't think he's going to do anything about it here, at the school." Scott tried to be optimistic. "What about after school?" Allison was still worried as her words caused the two teenage boys to sigh. "What if we can prove Derek wrong?" Allison tried to think of a solution. "By 3:00?" Johanna looked over at her cousin amused, that was less than an hour away. "There could be something in the bestiary." Allison proposed. "Oh you mean the 900-page book in Archaic Latin that none of us can read? Good luck with that!" Stiles scoffed at the idea, but Scott immediately looked at Johanna. "Can you translate it?" Allison immediately looked at her cousin with hope. "Can I translate it? Of course I can translate it!" Johanna scoffed at Allison's dumb question.

"I can talk to Derek, maybe convince him to give us a chance to prove it's not her." Scott proposed a plan B. "But if anything happens, you guys let me handle it, okay?" Scott ignored Johanna and looked at his best friend and girlfriend. "What does that mean?" Allison looked offended. "You can't heal like I do. I just don't want you getting hurt." Scott spoke in a tone that suggested the idea was obvious, but Allison was no less offended. Annoyed, the brunette turned to her bag and began to rummage through it. Successfully finding what she wanted, Allison pulled the trigger on the object in her hand. "I can protect myself." Allison held up a small crossbow. "Not with that timing." Johanna scoffed at how long it took Allison to find her weapon. Scott once again ignored the dirty blonde, looking at Allison with sadness.

"What? Did something else happen?" Allison set her weapon down as the air got sucked out of the room. "I just don't want you getting hurt. Seriously if anything goes wrong you call me, okay?" the couple stared into each other's eyes for a bit before Scott finally spoke up. "I don't care if your dad finds out. Call, text, scream, yell, whatever. I'll hear you and I'll find you as fast as I can." Scott emphasized his worry. "They really are Romeo and Juliette." Johanna scoffed as she watched the scene unfold, Stiles glaring at her for ruining their moment. "Well, we have until 3:00, who has the bestiary?" Johanna completely ruined the moment, stepping closer to her cousin.
