Reawakening » Stiles Stilinski [book 4]

14. Mentors

"So there's a supernatural hit list? And we have no idea who's on it?" Savannah questioned Stiles as him and Scott were getting her up to speed on what's been happening in Beacon Hills. 

"Yeah, basically. First were the Walcotts that we know of. So far there's been four murders; Sean, his brother, and their parents. They were killed by a professional assassin called the Mute. Weapon of choice, a military tomahawk. But then the Mute was killed by Peter Hale after he tried to blow up Derek with a claymore mine." Stiles explained as he taped a picture to his board. 

Savannah just stared at the board before asking, "But Sean and his family weren't werewolves, they were wendigos? So are we thinking this Benefactor person isn't only targeting werewolves?" 

"Yeah, we don't really know how broad the list is. So far, wendigos and werewolves but Deaton said once that supernatural creatures would be drawn here like a beacon." Scott answered. 

Savannah let out a small laugh. "Beacon Hills a beacon? That's kind of funny." 

Scott nodded his head before Stiles started hanging up pictures of the next victim. "Next on the list was Demarco. He delivered a keg to the party at Lydia's lake house. And he got decapitated outside his car." 

"Savannah, is there anything you can remember from that night? Anyone who looked weird or..?" Scott tried asking Savannah before Stiles added, "Yeah, where did you go that night exactly? Scott said you left the boat house to check on everyone at the house?" 

Savannah felt her heart started to beat fast as flashes of the full moon went before her mind. "I-I don't remember..I just got something to drink and sat down. I-I..umm don't really know a lot of people so.." Savannah lied, hoping Scott wouldn't know her heart beat rising was because she was lying. She prayed he would think she was still freaked out because of what happened last night at her surprise party. 

Scott looked at her weird, slightly concerned. "You didn't see anything? Anything at all?" 

Savannah felt a shiver go down her spine as she shook her head. "N-no.." Savannah said, sighing a little bit as she managed to relax herself. Scott still gave her a certain look before nodding his head. Savannah sighed in relief, even if she was lying about what happened to her that night, she was telling the truth about Demarco. She had no idea what happened to him and she didn't see anything either. 

Stiles nodded his head, placing a hand on her shoulder to make sure she was okay. Savannah forced a small smile on her face, nodding her head before Stiles hung up the last picture. "And last night was 23 year old Carrie Hudson." Stiles finished. 

"It's a deadpool, a hit list of supernatural creatures. This is only part of it but the rest has to be decoded." Scott said, handing a copy of the list to Savannah. 

She stared down at the list, her eyes going slightly wide when she saw the three names on it that she instantly recognized. 

Scott McCall. Lydia Martin. Derek Hale.
