"So when did you get there?" Agent McCall questions the five teens in from of him, a menacing expression on his face while the sheriff sat behind him.

"At the same time." Stiles responds.

"At the same time as who?"

"At the same time as me." Scott says to his father.

"By coincidence?" the agent asks.

"What do you mean coincidence?" Stiles drawls.

"That's what I'm asking you. The two of you arrived at the same time. Was that coincidence?"

"Are you asking me?" Scott asks a confused expression on his face.

"I think he's asking me." Stiles says to his best friend.

"I think he's asking the both of you." Lydia interrupts looking at the boys.

"Okay, let me answer the questions." McCall says before realising it and scrunching up his face. " Let me ask the questions." He corrects himself, Stiles clicks at the man while Lilith gives a small clap with a false smile.
"Just so I have this absolutely clear. Barrow was hiding in the chemistry closet at the school. Someone left him a coded message on the blackboard telling him to kill Kira. Then Barrow took Kira and Lilith to a power substation and tied them up with the intent of electrocuting the both of them, which blacked out the entire town."

"Sounds about right." Lilith deadpans from her spot in between Scott and Stiles.

"How did you know he'd take her to a power station? " The agent asks frowning.

"Well, 'cause he was an electrical engineer. So where else would he take her?" Stiles shrugs.

"That's one hell of a deduction there, Stiles."

"Yeah, what can I say? I take after my pops. He's in law enforcement." Stiles says making Lilith smile and his father snort out a laugh which he quickly covered with a cough.

"Stiles, just, uh...Just answer the man." He nods at his son.

"We made a good guess." Is all stiles says giving Liliths knee a reassuring squeeze.

"What were the three of you doing?" McCall says looking at Lilith, Kira and Scott.

"Eating pizza." Scott chokes out.

"Eating sushi." Kira says at the same time causing them to exchange looks.

"Eating sushi." Scott says this time.

"Eating pizza." Says Kira eyes wide.

"Eating sushi and pizza." Lilith interrupts with a groan internally cringing at the pair.

"You believe this?" Agent McCall asks turning to the sheriff.

"To be honest, I haven't believed a word Stiles has said since he learned how to speak."

"Aw." Lilith says looking at Stiles placing her hand on her heart.

"But I think these kids found themselves in the right place at the right time and those girls sitting there are very lucky for it." The sheriff continues ignoring the interruption.
