Scott McCall rushed into the basement along with Skylar Hale and Stiles Stilinski, the McCall shocked by the sight he was seeing and flickered his eyes over to the Werecoyote and Banshee. "What the hell happened to her?"

"No, we didn't do this." Malia jumped in, tears in her eyes. "It was these guys in the masks, they had a weapon!"

Stiles confusingly looks at the girl. "What are you talking about?"

"I don't know who they were or what they are, but–––they had some kind of weapon and shoved it into the back of her neck and then..." Malachai explains, he then walked over to the brunette girl. "Come here." Malachai says. "Look at this, it looks like Mercury, it happened when they shoved whatever the hell that thing was, into her neck."

"Do you believe us?" Malia hopefully asks with teary eyes.

Scott looks at the girl, his face erupted into one of confusion, a suspenseful feeling covering the area as his eyes observed her closely, seeing something red slightly diving from under her eyes.

Skylar looks at Tracy. "She's not changing back..."

Deaton then came forward. "We gotta her out of here."

Sheriff quickly stormed over to the group, after hearing what they were saying, he then looks over at Deaton, clearly disagreeing with him. "What? Hey! Absolutely not, this is a crime scene, we call the coroner."

Deaton calmly responds. "I think, the coroner might be very confused by this girl's severed reptilian tail..."

Sheriff shook his head in an aggressive manner. "I don't care."

"You should, unless you're prepared to hold a press conference announcing the presence of supernatural creatures in Beacon Hills." Deaton responds.

Stiles slowly nods. "Dad, he's right."

"...maybe, at the clinic, we can figure out how to change her back–––then, call the coroner?" Scott suggests.

"There's a line, there's a line we have to draw." Stilinski then says.

"Dad." Stiles sighs out. "You have crossed the line more than once."

"Sheriff, let him help, he had helped us more than once." Skylar says.

Sheriff deeply exhales, looking at everyone. "Just do it fast."

At the Beacon Hills Hospital, in the room Lydia Martin was in, her mother was in the room along with Maia Martin.

"Mom, you can't say anything about what just happened." Lydia pleads.

"All i saw was some lunatic girl trying to kill everyone." Natalie states.

"It wasn't her fault, i mean, she probably didn't know what she was doing, she's been having nightmares, sometimes she thinks she's living them, you know that." Maia quietly says, looking at the woman.

"She tried to kill you, Maia." Natalie reminds.

"Mom, you can't say anything, you just can't." Lydia pleads.

"It's okay, it's going to be okay." Natalie comfortingly says.

Maia sighs out, seeing her sister falling asleep, she then saw Natalie kissing the top of Lydia's head and then walked out of the room.

Natalie looks over out the room. "Maia-." She was saying but then saw her leaving.

"Theo, nice going on the tourniquet, you probably saved her life." Melissa says, coming out of the room.
