I woke up the next morning not feeling too well. I couldn't tell if it was because Kate still hasn't been found, or if something is going to happen today. I shrugged it off, took a shower, got dresses, and headed to Derek's. I thought that I would check on him before going to the school. Peter let me in, and I jumped on the couch next to Derek. We talked for a few minutes, before Brayden showed up. I was confused, but I was going to listen to this little exchange and hope this ends well.

"That table's Italian." Peter told Brayden as she placed her boots onto the table.

"So are these boots. Are we going to talk about interior designing fashion, or are we going to talk numbers?" Brayden said with an attitude.

I couldn't help the snicker that left my lips. Peter glared at me, but I just smiled back at him. Peter wrote some numbers down, and slid the paper to Brayden. Brayden glanced at it, marked through them, wrote her numbers down, and slid it back to Peter.

"We're hiring you to find Kate, not assassinate the President." Peter said as he looked at Brayden's numbers.

"I was hired by the Calaveras to find Kate. You're hiring me to find her first. Going against the Calaveras is what's going to cost you." Brayden said as she leaned back in the chair.

Peter got up and walked toward the window. I don't know why he does not want to pay Brayden, because she is trying to help them.

"We'll pay. Just find, that's all we want." Derek said as he grabbed the paper off the table.

Brayden gave Derek a smile. I walked Brayden out and when I closed the door, Peter laid into Derek.

"Are you insane?" Peter asked as Derek was looking through something.

"We don't have a choice. We spent a week looking for her and came up with nothing." Derek said back.

I didn't know where this conversation was going, but I needed to go see Scott and Stiles, but I'll be late if it means I can help Derek.

"If we don't find out, who told Kate about the vault, we don't get those bonds back! What do you think I'm gonna do then, huh? Get a job? My resume is slightly out of date. We got robbed, Derek." Peter said before Derek roared in his face, showing Peter his yellow eyes.

"Oh, that's a new look for you. What happened to your eyes?" Peter asked.

"I don't know. But I'm willing to pay to find out." Derek replied before heading my way.

"Let me know if you hear anything else. I want to help out as much as I can." I told Derek as I got on my bike.

"I will, and you better be careful." Derek said back.

"Always am." I told him with a smirk before starting my bike and heading toward the school.

When I got to the school, I parked my bike, and headed to the field. I smiled at Scott and Stiles as I walked up to them. We watched as the kid in goal caught every single ball. We were shocked by that, and I almost jumped out of my skin when the kid took off his helmet, Hazelle spoke from behind me. "Wow! That kid is hot."

I turned around and glared at her. Hazelle just shrugged with a huge smile. I just shook my head and followed the boys into the locker room. I'm kidding; I actually waited till I knew the guys were dressed. Coach doesn't really like me in here, but he doesn't say anything because he actually likes me.

"Hey, Liam. You want to explain what that was out there?" Stiles asked, and that's what led me to him, Scott, and Liam.

"What do you mean?" Liam asked completely confused.
