EDITED

Johanna and Allison followed Chris into the Beacon Hills Memorial morgue, watching as pointed out the bodies of the Kanima's latest victims. "This one is Shawn. Shawn was killed by this thing Gerard said is a shapeshifter that hasn't been around for centuries." Chris informed Allison more than Johanna. "The thing you shot outside the club the other night." Allison gulped at the dead bodies in front of her. "The South American legend we know of calls it the Kanima." Chris confirmed the creature's identity. "This one, Jessica." Chris moved onto the woman under the sheet. "She was smothered to death after giving birth, police think it was someone else." Chris shared the report of her death. "We think it was the person that is controlling the shapeshifter, which means there are two killers." Johanna looked at her cousin. "One human, one not." Chris added to the conversation.

"You know the question I had after Gerard first told me about our family? 'Why us?' He quoted me Winston Churchill." Chris continued to his point. "The price of greatness is responsibility." Johanna mocked her grandfather, annoyed with the very mention of him. "Personally, I think it's more about knowledge. What we know, the truth, we know about the world. That's what makes us responsible for a young couple, their newborn daughter, and anyone who doesn't have the power to defend themselves. Are you starting to get it?" Chris walked closer to the hunter in training.

"I get that this isn't a lecture, it's an interrogation." Allison accused as she looked over at Johanna betrayed. "That depends on what you know." Chris looked at his daughter skeptically. "Gerard showed me the library, the cameras didn't catch everything, but do you really think a little high school fight can explain that amount of damage?" Chris brought up the incident with Jackson the day prior. "We know you're trying to protect your friends, but people are dying. A child was orphaned, what you know makes you responsible. It makes you responsible for this." Chris pulled the sheet off the dead body. Allison flinched but refused to look down at the deceased. 

"What do you want me to tell you?" she finally looked over and into her father's eyes. "Anything you know. Anything that can lead us to answering the one question that might mean everything." Chris built up to his big question, the one Johanna wasn't even sure Allison knew "Who controls the Kanima?" Chris asked his daughter, her voice projecting power.

Johanna stood at her locker looking down at the text message on her phone annoyed. "You!" Johanna Argent narrowed her eyes at Stiles and Scott as they made their way to Stiles' locker. "Us?" Stiles pointed between himself and Scott in confusion. "My plans for tonight just got canceled, care to tell me why?" Johanna tilted her head as she looked between the two. The two teenage boys were beyond confused and simply looked at the huntress. "My obviously pathetic date just messaged me that our rave tickets were just beaten out of him in the boy's locker room. Happen to know anything about that?" Johanna looked at the two expectantly. Stiles looked at Scott with an 'O' face and Scott immediately tensed up.

"You better find me a way into that rave or the Kanima will be the least of your worries." Johanna threatened before she closed her locker and walked away. "She's terrifying." Stiles shivered as he looked at the huntress in awe. "Yeah, a little." Scott pursed his lips as he tried to decide how terrifying her threat would be. "We really should find her a ticket." Stiles continued to watch the huntress from afar. "Probably." Scott agreed with his best friend. "She's kind of hot though." Stiles only broke his gaze as the huntress turned the corner. Scott looked over at his best friend in disbelief at the words that just escaped his mouth.

Johanna made her way down the basement stairs in a black mini dress and high-heeled boots, joining the hunters. "Alright, the party's in a warehouse just inside the industrial sector." Chris informed the group as Johanna strapped her daggers onto her thigh and then place a concealed gun in her right boot. "Allison has learned that Jackson Whittemore will be there seeking his next target out of the crowd, Johanna will be inside the rave to monitor and react." Chris began to explain the game plan. "As to just how strong he is, we need to be extremely cautious. When Johanna and Allison have Jackson's location to be at the optimal point, where we can take him down, Johanna will signal me." Chris motioned to the dirty blonde and a moping Allison Argent.
