Stiles drove his jeep, following behind Derek as quickly as he can through the rain. None of them liked what was happening, they didn't trust Jennifer but they were desperate to save Noah, no matter what it takes.

Stiles wasn't losing another parent.

Brie still felt off, her head was fuzzy, her emotions were completely heightened and her mind was a mess. She wasn't sure what was right or wrong anymore. She wanted to know what was in the syringe that Jennifer injected her with.

"I don't know," Stiles spoke up after a few moments of silence. "Something feels wrong about this."

"I don't trust her," Brie agreed.

"We proved it to Derek, but she still had this look like it didn't matter," Stiles went on. "You know, like it was all still going according to plan. You saw it, didn't you."

Neither Brie nor Scott responded, only nodding faintly and deep in thought.

"What choice do we have?" Brie asked. "She's our only hope right now."

They agreed and Stiles parked his car beside Derek's once they reached the hospital. Brie noticed a bat in Stiles hand that he must've taken out from his car.

"What's that?" Scott asked, noticing the bat too.

"Well, you guys got claws and fire. I got a bat."

Brie nodded, going along with it. Even though a bat probably wouldn't do much against the Darach. It was better then nothing.

Derek was holding Jennifer close while walking through the hospital and the three teens followed closely behind.

The hospital was in chaos, due to the crazy storm that was happening. The hospital had to be evacuated because it was too dangerous to be in the area. Nurses and doctors were running around, trying to sort out where patients were going, which worked to their advantage since they could slip past everyone without being noticed.

Except by Melissa who called out for Scott.

"What are you doing here?" Melissa asked Scott, the group turning around to watch the conversation. "The hospital's evacuating."

"We're here for Cora," Scott told her.

"What, all of you?" She turned to look at the rest of the group. "Why does Stiles have my bat?"

"We don't question things," Brie told her while Stiles look down at the bat he was holding.

"Mom, just trust me on this. You need to get out of here. Right now."

Melissa thought for a moment. "The building is supposed to be clear in 30 minutes. We've got two ambulances that are coming back. One's ten minutes out, the other's 20. Cora needs to be on one of those. They'll be picking up in the basement garage."

"Got it," Scott nodded, and the group left the woman to go find Cora.

Once they got into the elevator, Derek still kept a tight hold on Jennifer while the other three stood behind her, watching her closely.

"You don't have to keep me on a leash, Derek. I'm going to help."

As she said that she took a look behind her and saw Scott, looking threatening at her from on corner, Stiles, holding the bat up in the other corner and Brie directly behind her, staring directly at her. They all kept a close eye on her, making sure she wouldn't try anything funny.

The elevator opened and the got out at the second floor, the lights flickered once they began to walk down the empty halls, walking directly to the room they knew to be Cora's.
