"What is this?"

The power had gone off in the station, the emergency lights kicking on only seconds later.

"What's going on?!" Matt yelled.

And that's when it happened.

Gun shots rang through the police station, shattering the wall of windows in the room with us. Scott, Matt, and I all dropped to the ground. We hid under the desks to keep from getting hit.

When the smoke bombs went off, Scott and I took that as our chance to get away. We ran from the room and across the hall to where Stiles and Derek were. Scott tossed Jackson to the side and ran to Stiles. I went over by Derek and knelt down beside him.

"Take him. Go!" Derek commanded Scott.

I helped Derek get to his feet. The Kanima venom was finally wearing off. My hands automatically brushed the dirt off of his clothes.

"You okay?" I asked, as Derek gripped onto the chair in front of him.

He looked up at me and was transformed. A growl escaped his mouth as he looked over at me.

I pursed my lips and nodded, "I'll take that as a yes."

"Save yourself." he commanded.

And with that, he disappeared.

-Isaac's POV-

"Isaac!"

Collins' voice rang throughout the warehouse. I could hear the emotion in her voice. She was scared. Terribly scared.

I ran out to where she was. My eyes searched her body, only to find a giant blood stain on her stomach. The blood stain couldn't have come from anyone else. Something happened to her.

To my Collins.

"What happened?" I asked, running over to her

She fell into my arms when I reached her. It could've been from the blood loss, but it could also be from what has her so shaken up.

I picked her up bridal style and carried her over to the couch. When I sat down, I kept her in my lap. I couldn't help but run my fingers through her hair, trying to calm her down.

"What happened, Colli?" I whispered.

She let out a shaky breath, "I... I... can't."

"You can't what?"

She just shook her head as she sweated like crazy. Her hands pushed through her hair and she just choked out sobs. I could hear her heartbeat continually accelerating as her body began to shake.

"Collins!" I yelled.

She didn't respond, her eyes were screwed shut. It's like she was having an attack of some sort.

Panic.

Panic attack.

I did all I could think of and smashed my lips into hers. I kissed her, only for a couple seconds though. When I pulled away from her, she was just staring at me.

"Panic attack... huh?" she whispered.

I nodded, "Holding your breath can stop it. You did that when I kissed you."

"Yeah, I know."

I searched her eyes with mine, the fear was still there, but not as much, "You know, I used to have panic attacks too. When my Dad locked me up."

"I... I had them too. So did Stiles." she mumbled, not really wanting to talk too loud I guess, "After our mom died, we both got them pretty often. It scared our dad to death."

We sat there in silence for a little bit. I wrapped my arms around the girl, pulling her closer to my body. I wanted her to know that she was protected, I wasn't going to let anything happen to her.

I began playing with one of her hands. Her hands were on the smaller side, but I liked it. It made her hands easier to hold. I could envelope her hand with mine. It made me feel like I could protect her better.

"What happened that made you so scared?" I blurted.

Her heart rate spiked before settling back down to normal.

She let out a shaky breath, "Scott, Stile, Dad, and I went down to the station to look at evidence. We thought it was Matt who controlled the Kanima. It turned out it was, but Matt knew we knew. He trapped us in the station with a gun. Mrs McCall is... or was locked in a cell while Dad was chained to a wall. Derek and Stiles were paralyzed by a half transformed Jackson. Then Matt also shot Scott and I. Then... then... there were gun shots. A lot of them. They came from outside, shattered all the windows in the room Matt had Scott and I in. Smoke bombs enabled Scott and I to get away from Matt to help Stiles and Derek. Scott took Stiles and ran, while I stayed to help Derek. He transformed and told me to save myself. Therefore, I'm here."

"Colli, are they okay? Are they all alive?" I rubbed her back.

She bit her lip and shook her head, "I don't know. I don't know. That's why I had the panic attack. I left before saving Melissa and my Dad. I'm such a terrible person!"

I pulled her close once again as the tears poured from her eyes. I held her head again my chest as I tried to soothe her.

"You're not a terrible person. I'm sure they'll be okay, Colli." I reassured her.

She sniffled, "Do you promise?"

"Of course I do. I'll take you over to your house in a couple hours. Okay? Sound good?"

She nodded into my chest, "Sounds great."

I laid down on the couch, pulling her down with me. She snuggled into my chest as we laid there.

"Just get some sleep. You need it."
