Athena let go of Malia's hand as they watched the interaction, and just as Monroe was about to pull out her gun, Scott's dad stepped out from behind the cars.
Scott and Theo lifted the bodies back up and pulled them inside, Sheriff and Scott's dad in tow.
Walking into Sheriff's office, Athena sat in the chair that Theo was leaning against as Liam, Lydia, Scott, Malia, Mr. McCall and the Sheriff all piled in. "You all have to leave. Including you, Athena. Your connection to Gerard puts you at major risk as well. And the FBI is taking the kids." Scott's dad said as he shut the door.
"Scott, are you sure about this?" Lydia asked, and Liam shook his head, "I'm not. Still sucks."
"But it's the only one on the table." Mr. McCall said, "In a situation like this, the best solution is always to deescalate, that's why you called me, isn't it?"
"Yeah, to be honest, I didn't think anyone was gonna show up." Sheriff replied, and Athena blew a strand of hair out of her face, running a hand through her brown hair. She knew Scott wouldn't agree to it, so now they still had to find a new solution to a new problem.
"Okay." He said, and both Theo and Athena shot their heads up, surprised, As well as Lydia and Liam. "We'll go."
Athena sighed, standing up as they walked out of the office, and once again, Athena grabbed Scott's arm once everyone was out.
Ready to argue, Scott turned around. But Athena had different things in mind.
She threw her arms around him, and he hugged her back. Pulling away, Athena left her hands on his biceps. "I'm sorry for earlier. I need to trust you. I've spent the past 4 years trusting you, and I don't plan on stopping now. Where you go, I go. Who you trust, I trust. And who you protect, I protect. Because we're family."
Scott smiled and nodded, hugging he again, glancing back at his pack. "I'm not so sure running is a good idea."
Athena scoffed, then smirked. "Please. We're the McCall pack. When have we ever ran from something."
Jordan and Sheriff opened the door for the teens, and the pack filed out of the station, Tierney and Jiang following them. Athena kept a tight grip on Nolan's arm as they walked out. Taking a couple steps forwards, she shoved him, and he was just barely able to get his balance before he ran over to the other boy that beat up Liam.
Athena walked back and stood by Lydia and Scott as Mr. McCall led Tierney and Jiang to the FBI vans, putting them in and driving away.
Monroe glared at them, raising an eyebrow.
"You all have until sunrise to be out of Beacon Hills."

"Athena!" Theo called as she reached her car, and she turned to look at him, furrowing her eyebrows.
