The Hope of Beacon Hills III

Sanctuar

"Derek? Derek, come on!" Hope tries to wake Derek up

"Where is she?" Derek wakes up

"Gone, with Scott's mom."

"She took her?"

"Yeah. If that's not enough of a kick to the balls, Scott left with Deucalion, okay? We gotta get you out of here. The police are coming right now and we get you out of here."

"Woah, what about Cora?"

............

Later, Hope and Derek meet with Allison, Isaac and Chris.

"Where are the others?" Allison asks

"Stiles is still at the hospital. He's gonna hold off the cops for us." Hope says

"We have to go right now." Derek says while putting Cora in his car

"What about Scott and Melissa?" Chris asks

"Jennifer took Melissa."

"What about Scott?" Allison asks, but no one answers "Hope, where's Scott?"

............

"The word is guardian, Allison. More than anyone, you know that's a role I haven't exactly lived up to lately." Chris says

"But she took Scott's mother and Stiles' father. That's not a coincidence."

"Yeah, I'd also consider the fact that someone put your name up in large block letters on the elevator doors. That kind of felt like a warning to me." Stiles says

"I think it might be Morrell. She knows a lot more than she lets on, and she might even be trying to help us." Hope says

"Well, she needs to get on that a lot faster, okay? Seeing as that lunar eclipse is less than two freaking nights away."

"Stiles, don't give up hope." Chris says

"He could already be dead."

"I don't think so. Lydia could have felt it if it was the case." Hope says

"Plus, there's something about Jennifer's tactics. It's like she's still positioning, still moving pieces into place." Chris says

"And you are one of them." Allison tells Chris

"Everything she's done has been on a telluric current. So Melissa and the sheriff have to be so ewhere on one of those currents, right? Stiles, if we're gonna find them, we need your help."

"So, you seriously wanna go after her? I mean, what if she just takes you like the others, huh?" Stiles asks

"We are gonna protect him." Hope says

"We've got a priority right now, and that is to find Melissa and your dad. We've got to map and every clue we need to figure this out. The only thing we don't have is time. Which is why I need all of you."

"Where do we start?"

"The place where the sacrifices have been committed have usually been different from where the bodies have been found. I think the placement has to do with the strength of the current. So, there's the school, the animal clinic, the bank."

"Wait a sec. She wouldn't use the same place twice, would she?" Stiles asks

"Only if she didn't succeed the first time."

"Scott's boss." Allison says

"Deaton. It was her only failure. That could mean something."

"That's just one place so far. We're gonna need more help." Hope says
