Chapter 15

Addition to this chapter if you read this part before

The next day we got to Deaton around ten and we waited six hours for them to wake up. I even went to Starbucks three times and subway twice for food and boredom. 

I nearly jumped out of my skin whe they all three came up for air at the same exact time.

"We can find it." Scott said as he gasped for air. We all just stared at them for how long it's been since they went under and the eclipse being so close. I was just paralyzed in excitement and relief Stiles is okay, I know it's mean but he might be all that I have left.

"What?"

"You guys been out for awhile." Isaac said.

"How long?" Stiles asked in confusion.

"Sixteen hours,"

"We've been out sixteen hours?" Scott questioned.

"And the full moon rises in less than four." Deaton said.

" No, you are not going back with them. Including you Jackie." Stiles said sternly as Isaac held me close as he sat on the table.
" I made a deal with Deucalion."
"Same with Colleen." I said trying to stand straight up but Isaac grip would get stronger.

" Does anyone else think that sounds a lot like A deal with the devil?"
"Why does it matter, anyway?"
"Because I still don't think that we can beat Jennifer Without their help." I said and the thought of my dad came running through my head. I just thought of the last glance I had of him before being whisked away.
"Scott trusts you more than anyone. And Jackie trust Scott. Tell him he's wrong." Allison said looking at Deaton.
" I'm not so sure he is. Or in that case Jackie is either." He said and everyone against us stood their confused. Stiles looked at him questioning what he just said.

"Circumstances like this Sometimes require that you align yourself With people you'd normally consider enemies." Deaton explained.

"See! Their is a reason to my madness." I said looking at Isaac who just rolled his eyes at me.
"So we're gonna trust him, The guy that calls himself death, destroyer of worlds? We're gonna trust that guy?" he asked.

"I wouldn't trust him, no, But you could use him to your advantage.
Deucalion may be the enemy, but he could also be the bait." Deaton said.

Then we all heard the front door creak open and shut as someone enters the office.
"I'm looking for Lydia and Jackie." I heard a voice say from the front hall.

Lydia and I walk out seeing whos out their and it was Ethan.

"What do you want?" I asked.

"I need your help."

"With what?" Stiles said budding in.

"Stopping my brother and kali From killing Derek." Lydia and I exchange looks and as we walked towards Ethan I was tugged back. I looked at Isaac holding me back,
"Let go." i said trying to get out of his grip.

"I'm not planning on letting you go with him defenseless." he said and I rolled my eyes.

"When am I ever defenseless?"

"He can do with only one of you." He growled.

Isaac didn't let me leave his side all the way to Allison's apartment.
Scott was arguing with Stiles over the phone about what clothes he's willing to smell for a scent.

"Just grab anything? Stiles, I'm not smelling your dad's boxers.
Socks? Okay, I'll smell the socks." Scott said over the phone to Stiles.

"What about me?" Isaac asked Allison.
