"Well that was rad!" Ace exclaimed happily as he sat down on the couch shortly after he was followed by Mila. The three betas and Kris had all arrived back at Kris' house safely but they couldn't help but worry about Lacey as Scott had chased her down.

"Ace," Erik warned as he looked out of the large window, looking for any sign of Lacey.

"Oh come on, Erik. You and I both know she'll be fine. Like.. have you met Lacey?" Ace asked and Erik glanced back at the baby beta. "She's like the most badass badass out there!" He exclaimed, getting a nod from Mila.

"Aw, cute." Lacey spoke as she exited the kitchen with a sandwich. "What took you guys so long?" She questioned, silently laughing at all the questioning and wild looks she was receiving. She took a bite of her sandwich and sat down on the armchair, looking over her pack as she chewed.

"How did you get back here so fast?" Kris asked with a confused tone as Erik turned back to the window, glancing out at the lake that Kris' house was next to.

"I'm like ten times faster than you - even when you run in werewolf form." Lacey spoke with a 'DUHH' tone and Ace snorted at her words. "I'm proud of you guys. You kicked their asses." Lacey smiled proudly at her pack.

"Thanks, mom." Mila spoke sarcastically.

"You're welcome, daughter dearest." Lacey shot back with a smile, glancing at Erik with a worried expression. She sighed and stood up from her chair, placing the sandwich down on a plate before walking over to join Erik at the window. "You alright, Er?" Lacy asked as she looked over the only father figure she had left in her life.

"Yeah." He shrugged glancing at Lacey, instantly regretting it as he noticed her expression which showed that she knew he was bullshitting. "It's nothing, Lace. That alpha just got a few slashes on me. It'll heal in no time." He smiled at the short girl who frowned.

She reached forward and took his hand, sighing out. "Relax." They both stared each other down before he sighed out and relaxed, feeling Lacey take his pain. "Jeesh, he got you pretty bad." Lacey commented as she felt the surges of pain move into her body.

It wasn't the worst pain she had ever felt it was just weird to feel how much impact Scott's hits had on Erik. "Are you alright, Kris?" Lacey asked as she took all of Erik's pain and turned to Kris who had fought Scott harshly.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Alpha perks." Kris shrugged and Lacey frowned when she realised he was eating her sandwich. "What? I bought it." He spoke and took another bite.

"You don't think it's true." Kira stated as she sat in the passenger seat of Stiles' jeep with Liam behind her and Stiles beside her. She wasn't a wolf but she could still tell when Liam, or the rest of the pack for that matter, was unhappy.

Liam sighed out at her question. "No. I don't." Stiles answered, tightening his grip on the steering wheel. Liam's head shot up at Stiles' words and watched as he pulled over to the side of the road. "Yeah, I mean she is probably still the Alpha of The Alphas or whatever but I don't think she's evil as Deaton made her out to be. I know she was only pretending to be our friend but there's no way she's that good at acting, right?"

Liam smiled lightly at Stiles' words. Stiles was smart, he almost always knew who the bad guys were and if he didn't think Lacey was bad - she probably wasn't.

"Yeah.. I don't think so either." Kira spoke, rubbing her arm with her opposite hand.

"Neither do I." Liam added and there was a collective sigh of relief from everyone in the jeep as they were all on the same page. Both Kira and Stiles looked through the gap between the two front seats at Liam. "But Scott is certain she is.. we have to prove she's not." Liam spoke.

Kira nodded and Stiles bit his lip nervously. "Yeah but how many times have I told Scott not to trust someone and he's trusted them anyway?" Stiles asked and Liam pursed his lips in frustration at Stiles' words.

"Yeah but you also told him not to trust Liam or I but yet here we are." Kira added and Liam glanced up, nodding.

"Listen..." Stiles paused, trying to think of an excuse. "Everybody makes mistakes." He huffed out.

"Yeah, okay," Kira muttered, smiling at Liam who snorted at her remark.

"Back to the plan guys.." Liam spoke after a few seconds of huffing from Stiles and giggling from himself and Kira.

"Okay.. what is the plan?" Kira asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Good question." Liam retorted causing Stiles to roll his eyes as Liam looked straight at him, expecting him to already have a plan made up in his head.. I mean he did, but that was besides the point.

"You guys are hopeless." Stiles spoke, rolling his eyes yet again. "Where would you be without me?" He asked sarcastically.

"You know... I'd probably be dead by now." Liam shrugged. "Thanks for not letting me be dead by now," Liam thanked with a smile and Stiles couldn't help but smile at the small compliment from the younger boy.

"Anyway! The plan is we need to get close to Lacey and figure out," Stiles paused, raising a single finger. "One, what she is," The second finger raised. "Why she is here." The third finger was raised. "What she wants from us." He raised a final finger. "And if she really did kill her parents for power.. which I'm actually really hoping she didn't" Stiles put all of his fingers down.

"Yeah me too," Kira muttered sadly. She actually really liked hanging out with Lacey. It wasn't that she didn't like the other girls but Allison was sort of a bitch to her, Lydia hung out with Allison almost always and Malia was a little too ditsy to understand what Kira was talking about most of the time.

"Everyone down with our plan then?" Stiles asked the other two people in his jeep, studying Kira for a second as she looked off into the distance, focusing intently on the end of her seat belt before she snapped back into reality with a slight poke from Liam.

They were all silent for a few seconds as Kira went over what they had just said in her head. "Yeah, I'm down... I actually liked Lacey, I'm really hoping that she's not as bad as Deaton made her out to be." Kira muttered.

"You and me both, Kira," Liam smiled at the older girl who smiled back before he looked at Stiles who was watching him, waiting for his answer. "Hell yes i'm in. You guys aren't making a super secret plan without me being involved." Liam spoke.

The other two laughed at Liam's words before Stiles spoke again. "Okay good. I'll drop you two off at your houses and then tomorrow we'll see if we can find Lacey, If not we'll just talk about the plan more." Stiles spoke as he began to drive towards Kira's house again.

"I have no idea how i'm gonna keep this from Scott." Liam spoke, feeling guilty at the fact he was keeping secrets from his alpha.

"I think that goes for all of us, Liam." Kira answered and Stiles nodded. It was sorta ironic, the three people Scott probably cared about the most were keeping a huge plan like this from him. "We'll figure it out. We can do this." Kira spoke, squeezing Liam's hand for comfort before letting it drop again.

"Hell yes we can." Stiles spoke confidently causing the other two to crack a smile at their plan.

This could actually work. They could actually do this. They could figure out the truth about Lacey and her pack, they could possibly save her life. They could do this, together.
