"My asthma is back," Scott begins as Theo, and I were at Deaton's who was currently M.I.A.
"I'm not sure how, but it came back. Just as bad as it used to be. So now, I keep my inhaler on me all of the time. Just like I used to."
"And it's been five days," I say glancing up. "We haven't seen any new Chimeras, and we haven't seen the Dread Doctors. We all go to school, pretending like nothing's happened."
"But everyone seems to know. You just walk down the halls and no one's smiling. No one's laughing."
"You get the feeling that everyone can sense that something's coming. They just don't know what is, or how bad it's going to be."
"Every time I feel like I should do something about it, I find myself reaching for my inhaler.
Like, I'm going to take a hit of it and, and come up with some brilliant solution on how to save everyone."
"But I don't know what to do."
"I don't think anyone does," I say.
"Maybe that's why no one's really talking to each other. Sometimes we don't even notice each other. I've only talked to Liam and Hayden."
"But I think some of us are okay with that. Because not talking makes it easier to keep secrets," Scott says. "And I don't know if anyone's really lying about things."
"Maybe it's more like lies of omission. Maybe the worst lie is to Stilinski. Because no one's told him about Parrish yet. Then again, no one's told Parrish either. He doesn't seem to remember taking the bodies."
"And we think that he's only really dangerous if you try to get in his way. If Stilinski knew the truth, he'd definitely get in his way," I explain.
"So Lydia and Stiles are trying to find the bodies, which means finding the Nemeton.
They're driving around, searching all of the woods."
"But the last time that we found this thing, three of us had almost drowned in ice water," Scott said.
"We're not the only ones looking for Chimeras Stilinski's got everyone looking for the next target. Questioning anyone who's a genetic Chimera. Anyone who's got two sets of DNA.
No one really knows what they're looking for."
"Some think it's a serial killer. Some probably know it's worse. The two Chimeras that we know about, Hayden and Corey They're both doing okay."
"Actually, better than okay," I interject. "They're healing faster and getting stronger. They don't need our help."
"And I don't think they'd want it anyway. I still haven't heard from Kira. And I'm getting more and more worried about Deaton. I know something's coming."
"And all I can think about is how good am I going to be if I can't even breathe?"
"You sound like you're trying to apologize," Theo notices.
"You came back looking for an Alpha. I guess I'm sorry that you found me," Scott responds sheepishly.
"I'm not sorry," The beta shrugs.
"You still want to be part of the pack?" I ask raising a brow.
"Scott, Amanda, I'm with you. For better or worse. Trust me."
"There's gonna be worse."
"I'm counting on it."

Fanfiction"No, not my little sister," Scott fought stepping forward. "Scotty, come on! It'll be fine. It's not like this will lead to anything," I reassured crossing my arms. He sighed shaking his head in disapproval. "I don't like this at all," he mumbled. "...
