SONG : VIDEO GAMES - LANA DEL REY

A loud growl escaped her lips at the woman in front of her, swinging her arm back and forward again to claw the unknown woman's throat. She ran and dodged other people with the glowing gold eyes. When she finally got out of the building, a loud voice echoed through the woods.

"Having trouble? I can help you."

Cara turned to see a tall man in all black, "Who are you?"

He smirked, "My name is Derek."

"Okay, so you know how Kate was turned when Peter...ripped her throat? I feel like that happened to Cara, but I'm not positive." Lydia said hesitantly, afraid of Malia's response.

"Isn't that rare, though? I mean, yeah, maybe it could have happened, but- wait why am I being so casual about this? What did you just say?" Malia asked in confusion.

"I just have this feeling that Cara isn't dead, and I know it's absolutely insane, but I just have a feeling."

Malia looked down at her lap, biting her bottom lip nervously. Her head seemed to be spinning, her emotions running wild. What if Cara had actually survived? What would she do? Lydia noticed her expression and quickly added, "I might be wrong, Malia."

The teen shook her head, "Lydia, you're almost always right about this sort of thing."

Malia could feel a layer of sweat form on her forehead, from the stress or the actual heat of spring in California? She didn't know. Her slender hand gripped the rough fabric of the army green jacket, pulling it down her torso, revealing the t-shirt that always immediately made her feel the heavy feeling in her chest. 

Lydia cocked her head, "When did you get that?"

The brunette looked down at the black t-shirt with the big words "Electra Heart" printed in white, cursive lettering. Tears brimmed her eyes that she blinked away, quietly replying, "Cara's brother said she would have wanted me to have it. He said that she told him that she showed me her music and that's when," Malia coughed, taking a swift sip of her cup of water, "he said that's when she told him she liked me."

"God. G-god, I'm sorry. Are you okay?"

"I'm not okay, but I will be again."

"So, what does it mean?"

The man rolled his eyes, "I don't know. I know that red is alpha, yellow is beta, and blue means that you have taken the life of an innocent. I've never seen purple before."

Cara pursed her lips, "Okay...so, is that good or bad?"

"Most likely bad." 

"That's reassuring." 

Derek Hale sighed, grabbing his phone hidden underneath his black (big surprise) jacket, dialing a certain's veterinarian's number. 

"Hello?"

"Deaton. It's Derek."
