- CHAPTER SEVEN -
💰 Weaponized 💰

Iris walked out of a patient's room and walked over to the front desk where Melissa stood. "Have you eaten yet?" Iris asked and Melissa sighed, looking at her, "Do you really want me to answer that?" She asked, making Iris chuckle.

"My dad packed me extra." Iris said, making Melissa sigh in relief, "Have I told you how much I love having you around here." Melissa said, making Iris laugh softly before someone ran through the doors.

"She's been shot! I think she's dying!" Derek yelled, making Iris quickly look over to see Derek carrying Braeden, making Iris' eyes widen. "Braeden!" Iris yelled as she and a bunch of people ran over to them, taking Braeden from Derek and putting her on a gurney.

💰

Derek sat next to Braeden's hospital bed as she slept when the door opened, making him look over as Melissa and Iris walked in. "What's that?" Derek asked as Melissa put a syringe into the IV drip. "Naloxone. We need to wake her up." She said making Derek furrow his brows, "I thought you said she needed to rest?" He asked, looking over at Iris, who sighed.

"That was before we found out the CDC just put the high school under quarantine with Scott and Stiles still in there." She said before Braeden suddenly shot up, looking around panicky before groaning when she moved slightly. "Braeden, hey, look at me- you were shot, but you're in the hospital, and you're fine. Do you understand?" Iris asked and Braeden glanced at her than at Derek

Braeden stared at the. for a moment before nodding, "Okay... Last night, you were in the woods, and you came across another pack? Do you know what happened to them?" Melissa asked

"We told you, they were poisoned-" Derek said and Breaden shook her head, "No. No, they were infected. It was a virus... designed to kill Werewolves. It did. It killed them all." Braeden said, making Iris suck in a deep breath looking over at Derek.

"If that virus got into the school... Scott, Malia, Kira..."

💰

"What are you still doing here?" Braeden asked tiredly looking over at Derek who sat in a chair next to the bed while Iris looked over everything. "I'm protecting my investment. Got a lot of money riding on you." Derek said, making Iris roll her eyes, shooting Derek a look.

"Derek, Iris... I think there's someone here you've been trying to find." Melissa said after she opened the door and then someone else walked in looking at Derek and Iris with a small smile. "Holy shit..." Iris said as she smiled at the woman.

"It's a variant of canine distemper. A few years ago, an outbreak in Yellowstone killed forty-percent of the wolf population." Deaton said as they all stood in the morgue around a body, "What's it going to do to our wolf population?" Melissa asked. "Well, it's definitely been altered to infect quite faster." Iris said looking at all of them, "You mean it's been weaponized?" Derek said.

"It infected my whole pack." Satomi said, making everyone look at her, "Everyone except you. That's the real question- did you not get infected? Or are you immune?" Deaton asked. "If your pack was infected, then who was doing all the shooting at the entrance to the woods?" Iris asked, making Satomi look over at her, "Apparently, another assassin. Personally, I'd rather face a gun than a variant of smallpox." She said.

"Sounds like you're going to get plenty of chances."

Derek and Iris look over to see Satomi looking at them, "I just noticed how much you two remind me of your mothers. I used to visit them a lot, you know... Do you remember me?" She asked and Iris chuckled. "You're my god-mother, of course I do. I'm sure my parents would love to see you. I also wouldn't mind you meeting my daughter." Iris said, making Satomi smile at her.

"I remember the tea. You always brought that tea that smelled horrible." Derek said, making Satomi smile, "I brought that tea as a gift. Your mother loved it." Satomi said. "What kind of tea?" Deaton asked, making them all look over at him, "What?" Satomi asked, confused. "The tea with the smell, what kind was it?" Deaton asked, "Reishi- wild purple reishi. It's very rare."

"It's also a powerful remedy for sickness." Iris said as she and Deaton glanced at each other, "Satomi, you didn't get infected because you've been inoculated." Deaton said. Melissa nodded, stepping forward, "Okay, okay... How rare is it? Can we find it?" Melissa asked.

"We don't have to." Derek said, making them all look at him, "My mother kept some of it. It's in our vault."

💰

"We have to get to the school." Derek said as he, Iris and Satomi walked out of the morgue, "What about the others at Lookout Point?" Satomi asked. But before anyone could say something the elevator dinged, making them all turn to see a woman step out, holding a gun.

Derek instantly grabbed Iris pulling her to the side while Satomi easily and effortlessly dodged every shot before stabbing the woman in the neck with her metal spike. Right as the women fell to the floor, Melissa and Deaton ran out as Satomi turned around.

"I may have learned to control my anger, but I still know when to use it."
