Stiles POV:

We are sitting in class and the teacher is walking around us.

"All right, gather together. Chain spells are about the fluid movement of energy from witch to witch. Where's Penelope Park?" Asked the teacher

"Um, lady cramps, Mr. Williams." Said Lizzie

"Sorry I asked." Said the teacher "A disharmonious group makes for an uneven flow." He continued the class

Lizzie and Josie laugh and a paper flies in the class

"Okay..." Said the teacher and caught it

"Uh-oh, who's in trouble with the headmaster?" Asked Lizzie

"Probably the people who started a rumble with the local high school." Said Hope to her

"'Lizzie Saltzman, Josie Saltzman.' And baby makes three. Oh and Mister Stilinski too. Off you go." He says

We go to Alaric

"This makes no sense, Dad. Why are we being punished?" Asked Lizzie

"Because you started a brawl at a charity football game that risked exposing what we really do here." Answered Alaric

"Well, you weren't mad last night." Said Lizzie

"I was mad last night. My undying love for my daughters just happened to trump my rage." Said Alaric. I was about to say something when Hope gave me a look so I kept it in. "I volunteered everyone in the game, so stop complaining. You're lucky that it's just community service and not actual jail time."

"Can I at least offer a rebuttal in my defense, if it pleases the court?" Lizzie asked. Alaric gestured to continue "First of all, I was provoked. My response was totally proportional considering the levels of abuse that I was forced to endure. And secondly... if anyone should take the blame, it's Josie."

"What?" Asked Josie in shock

"I'm sorry. I totally cracked under cross, but if you had just let Kaleb catch the ball..." Said Lizzie

"You'd still be in trouble." cut in Alaric

"But nice job throwing your sister under the bus." continued Hope. Lizzie gave her a look

"Thank you, Hope." Said Josie

"Speaking of, the bus leaves in ten minutes, and I expect all four of you to be on it, working together today, harmoniously and without drama." Said Alaric

"What did I even do to deserve this?" I asked shocked

"You helped Hope do black magic" Said Alaric "All right, now, go, all of you. Come on."

Me, Lizzie and Josie walk out but Hope remains in the room

Timeskip:

We arrived with the bus

"So, what did you do? My dad never gets mad at you. You're the prodigal daughter. Must have been juicy." Said Lizzie

"Sorry, no time for girl talk. Public service awaits." Cut in Hope

"All right, listen up. It's a beautiful day. You got options: Litter, weeds, graffiti. Your choice" Said the teacher

"It's bad enough we get punished while the humans get a pass, but there ain't no way in hell I'm picking up their garbage." Said Kaleb

"Uh, I don't do trash either." Said Lizzie

"I love trash, as of this moment." Said Hope

"Perf. It suits you." Said Lizzie. She turned to Josie "Looks like we're scrubbing paint today."

"Dad told us to work together, okay, harmoniously."

"Yeah, and he also said without drama, and I am feeling a rage attack coming on, so I will be remaining drama-free over by that wall of graffiti." Said Lizzie "Are you coming or not?" She asked Josie

Josie started to walk to Hope's side that we were on with MG. "I don't know, Lizzie, is there another bus you want to throw me under?"

"Fine, Daddy's girls." Said Lizzie with a frown

"Anyone else?" Asked Lizzie. they started to walk away "Get the lead out, MG." He started to walk to them. Lizzie looked back "Stiles you coming?" She asked

"I'm good." I said and she turned back and walked away. We started to pick trash

Timeskip till Hope and Josie have screen time in the show:

we were cleaning up the trash and Hope spoke to Josie

"You have a future in waste management." She said

"Cleaning up messes is kind of my thing." Said Josie

"Well, your sister is kind of a dumpster fire." Hope said

"Damn." I said under my breath so nobody heard it

"Why do you always pick fights? We've known each other a decade and any time you have the chance, you poke." Said Josie

"You guys do your fair share of poking." Said Hope

"Yeah, in retaliation to your pokes." Said Josie "And with you spending so much time with my dad and keeping secrets..."

"We're not keeping secrets." Hope cut her off

"Oh, yeah? What happened when you went to go find Landon Kirby?" Josie asked

"Nothing happened." Said Hope

"Something clearly did happen. Rafael never showed up at school, my dad was rattled, so why won't you just tell me?" Asked Josie

"Because there's nothing to tell. Aah!" She poked herself with the stick
