Fallen ~ Liam Dunbar [ EDITING ]

Weaponized: Part 2

We all run down to the basement, searching the walls for the entrance.

10 minutes later and nothing. 

"Hey guys, over here." Stiles said.

We moved the shelf, reveling what was behind it.

"Look at the cracks in the wall." Stiles said pointing to them.

"It's like the entrance outside, opens with claws." I say.

"Anyone's claws right?" Malia said.

I looked over at Scott and Stiles. They both knew that only a Hale can do it.

"Uh Malia? Could you try?" I say.

"Why me?"

"I can't control them." Scott says.

"Neither can I." I say holding up my hands.

"Ok, I'll do it. But first, tell me what you've been hiding from me."

I look over at Scott and Stiles.

'She knows, did she read the list? How can she know?'

"I know you think you're trying to protect me, but I can handle it."

We all stand there silent.

"I know I'm on the list." She says.

'Huh? I thought she already knew that she was on the list.'

"So how much?"

"How much what?" Stiles said.

"How much am I worth?"

"4 million." I say looking at her.

She then looked to the ground.

"Yea, Scott is worth 25, Kira six. They'll take you way before me." She says.

I laugh.

"That's progress, that's progress." Stiles says.

Malia walks over and puts her claws in, opening up the door.

We all step inside and close the doors behind me.

"Now what?" I asked.

"Now we wait to see what happens." Scott said.

We were all in the vault, getting weaker each second.

"You know, this is where it all started. That's where the money was." Stiles said pointing to the vault.

"117 million bearer bonds, how do you even change bearer bonds into cash?" I ask.

"A bank I guess." Scott said pacing the room.

"Aren't those like extinct?" Stiles said.

"Does it really matter? I say

"You know how many problems the money could solve?" Stiles asks. 

"For you?" Kira asked us.

"Me, my dad, Chelsea, The Eichen House and MRI bills are crushing him."

"My mom does this thing, she writes down all the items in our budget, and how much they cost, then she adds them up and figures out how long we have until....." Scott said pausing. "Until we lose the house."

~Liam's POV~

I was jogging down to the school when Lydia drives past me. She pulls over and gets out.
