"THIS is a terrible idea," Stiles stated the second we got out of the Jeep with Scott, and I nodded in agreement, looking at the school.
The last thing I wanted to do was come back to school during the damn night.
"Yeah, I know," Scott sighed.
"But we're still gonna do it?" I questioned, really hoping he would change his mind.
"Can you think of something better?" Scott asked, throwing his hands out.
"Well, personally, I'm a fan of ignoring a problem until eventually it just goes away," Stiles commented, looking like he was over this already.
"Just make sure we can get inside," Scott muttered as Derek's car started approaching us.
Pulling up the back of Stiles's Jeep, I reached in and grabbed out the bolt cutters. "These should work."
"That's another thing on her rap sheet," Stiles whispered, patting my back. "She's been caught breaking into a food store."
"You did look me up!" I exclaimed, shoving him back. "And I only got caught for that once!"
Dropping his head back, Scott asked, "You did it more than once?"
"We'll have this conversation another time," I muttered, walking toward Derek's car as he got out. "Where's Scott's boss?"
"No 'hey, how you been, cousin?'," he deadpanned, and I sent him a sharp look. "He's in the back."
Looking in the backseat, I could see Deaton passed out with tape covering his mouth and a fresh wound on his face.
"Oh, he looks comfortable," Stiles sarcastically remarked.
Scott tapped my shoulder, and I grabbed Stiles, walking toward the school doors.
"Wait. Hey!" Derek called out behind us. "What are you doing?"
We all stopped, sharing a look. "You said I was linked with the Alpha," Scott explained. "I'm gonna see if you're right."
"We'll be safe," I assured Derek before following after Stiles and Scott. "At least I hope."
"The Alpha can't get in the school," Scott told us, but not very convincingly as we stopped before the chained doors.
"I bet all my money you just jinxed that," I groaned, easily snapping the chain with the cutter. "Can we just hurry this up?"
"Definitely," Stiles agreed, pushing the door open and holding it for me.
Giving him a smile, I dropped the cutters behind me before walking into school. They turned on their flashlights, and straight away, I hated the eerie feeling I got when we walked down the dark hallways and past empty classrooms.
This was something out of a horror movie.
"Okay, one question," Stiles started when we walked into the office. "What are you gonna do if the Alpha doesn't show up?"
