"U have to talk to ur family, Sky" Derek spoke to Skyler who lied on the couch in the loft on her back, staring up at the ceiling. "And Scott needs u"
"He won't want my help when he finds out that I killed our sister" Skyler stated, crossing her arms over her chest
"They're worried about u" Derek pointed out
"I texted them both. I said my humanity's back and I'll be home soon"
"Ur home now"
"Derek. Please" Skyler complained, sitting up on the couch to look at him
"All of them are separated now. They're barely speaking. They need u, Sky" Derek told her. Skyler looked away, staring off into space "It wasn't ur fault. They'll know it wasn't ur fault"
"U know Scott. He won't believe it wasn't my fault"
"Then don't tell him. Just go help him" Derek told her. Skyler lied back down on the couch, turning and putting her back to derek
"Sky" derek spoke but Skyler didn't answer "Skyler" he called out and Skyler sighed
"What?" She asked quietly
"People r dying, Sky" Derek told her making Skyler close her eyes and let out a breath

Nigh had fallen and the rain poured over Beacon Hills. Skyler sped up to the animal clinic making Scott and Stiles stop arguing and turn to her
"Sky?" Scott asked. Skyler got out of the car and hurried over
"I'm here to help" She told them
"Where have u been?" Scott asked
"I'll explain later. Can we just focus on Hayden for now?" Skyler asked when she noticed the bloody wrench in Stiles's hands, smelling the anger between the two "What happened?" She asked, glancing between the two of them and Scott's face dropped
"Stiles killed Donovan"
"He was gonna kill my dad, and me. He was trying to kill me. I didn't have a choice, Scott" Stiles snapped at him "u don't even believe me, do u?"
"I want too" Scott told him
"Ok, then believe me. Scott, say u believe me. Say it"
"Stiles, we can't kill people that we're trying to save" Scott told him
"Say u believe me" stiles pleaded, stepping toward Scott making him step back
"What the hell is wrong with u, Scott. He didn't have a choice" Skyler snapped
"We can't kill people. U believe that?" Scott asked stiles.
"We r not all like u Scott. Sometimes, we don't have a choice. Sometimes, it just happens!" Skyler yelled at him.
"Why r u so mad?" Scott asked her, furrowing his brows
"Because u need to get ur head out or ur ass!" Skyler yelled "Stiles can't protect himself the way we can. He didn't have a choice, so lay off of him!"
"What do u want me to do? Scott just tell me how to fix this. What do want me to do?" Stiles pleaded
"Don't worry about Malia or Lydia. We'll find them. Maybe u should talk to ur dad" Scott told him before turning for the animal clinic
"No way" Skyler snapped, grabbing Scott's shoulder and pulling him to face her "u can not hate him for this. U cannot hold it over his head, Scott!"
"What do want me to do then, huh?!" Scott snapped "u want me to just let it go? Shrug it off? I can't do that. He killed someone!"
"Yeah? Well I killed two people, Scott! And neither of them were my fault either!" Skyler snapped and Scott stepped back, his face dropping
"U did what?" He asked
"Sky. U don't have to do that for me" stiles told her
"No. It's fine" Skyler told stiles before turning to face Scott again. "If u wanna hate someone, hate me. I killed someone the day coach was shot in the stomach with an arrow, a werewolf that attacked me cause I had no one to stop me. And then..." she stopped, letting out a breath as a tear rolled down her cheek "I killed Sandra" she told him, her voice cracking "Because she was the one who tortured me. She was working with the dread doctors, so when I turned my humanity off, she was who I went for." She paused, sniffling "and killing her turned my humanity back on so I ran. I stole money from dad and I ran and I never planned on coming back. If it weren't for Derek, I wouldn't be here."
"How could u do that?" Scott asked her with a slight scoff
"Because shit happens, Scott!" She yelled at him, throwing her arms in the air "We do things we don't mean to do and things we regret! And sometimes we don't have a choice! And then we're left to live with the consequences of the things we couldn't control! Stiles already feels guilty. He's already haunted by it. I know that cause I know him. He doesn't need u to hate him cause he already hates himself for it!"
"And u? Do u regret it?" Scott asked
"Of course I regret it" Skyler scoffed "and I have to live with the guilt of what I did every day for the rest of my life, just like stiles does! Just because u haven't had to make that hard decision yet, and you've had people to stop u before u went too far, doesn't mean ur not capable of doing the same!" Skyler yelled at him.
Scott stepped back from the two of them, shaking his head at them before turning and walking into the animal clinic.
Sky stared at the closed door as tears ran down her face. She turned around and looked at stiles, wrapping her arms around him
"It's ok" she whispered "I don't blame u" she told him "ok?" She asked and stiles nodded "u did what u had to do. I understand"
"He's never gonna forgive me, is he?" Stiles asked as he buried his face in Skyler's shoulder
"Well, if he doesn't, then at least u won't be alone in that state. You'll have me. I'm not going anywhere" she told him, resting her head on his shoulder as the rain continued to pour down on them.
