"Alright let's go over this again, shall we?" Agent McCall started. The five of us were currently seated in Sheriff Stilinski's office with the sheriff and Scott's dad facing us. "So when did you get there?"

"At the same time," Stiles answered, neglecting to leave any sarcasm out of his tone.

"The same time as who?"

"The same time as me," Scott answered.

"By coincidence?" McCall raised an eyebrow.

"What do you mean coincidence?" I asked the agent, deciding to play along.

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

There was a pause. "Is he asking me?" Scott said.

"I think he's asking me," Stiles corrected.

"Most likely it was me he was asking," I told them.

"I think he's asking all three of you," Lydia said from next to me, annoyed.

"Let me answer the questions," Agent McCall said to get us to shut up. There was a pause, and we all smiled at him. He sighed and rolled his eyes. "Let me ask the questions. Just so I have this absolutely clear," He started flipping through his notepad, "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 to a power substation, and tied her up with the intent of electrocuting her. Which blacked out the entire town."

"Nailed it," I told him.

"How'd you know he'd take her to a power substation?"

"Well because he was an electrical engineer, so where else would he take her?" Stiles said, scratching his head.

"That's one hell of a deduction there, Stiles," McCall said, not believing him in the slightest.

Not missing a beat, Stiles grinned, "Yeah what can I say, I take after my pops, he's in law enforcement," He looked over to his dad, winking and pointing at him. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't the teensiest bit attracted to him in that moment.

Stiles' father chuckled, and quickly disguised it as coughs when Scott's dad turned to give him a pointed look.

"Stiles, just uh - just answer the man."

"We made a good guess," Stiles said.

"What were the two of you doing?" McCall glanced to his son and Kira.

"Eating sushi," Kira said.

"Eating pizza," Scott said at the same time. They looked to each other.

"Eating pizza," Kira tried again.

"Eating sushi," Scott said simultaneously. They rolled their eyes and sighed.

"Eating sushi and pizza," They corrected together.

"Do you believe this?" McCall asked the sheriff.

Stilinski waved his hand, "To be honest, I haven't believed a word Stiles has said since he learned how to speak," I had to put a hand over my mouth to stifle my laughter at Stiles' disbelieving face. "But I think these kids found themselves in the right place at the right time. And that girl sitting there is very lucky for it."

"Kira," Agent McCall tried again, "Is that how you remember it?"

We all looked over at her curiously as she looked around the room. She nodded her head slowly and said, "Yes. Can I get my phone back now?"
