Melissa and I come barging through the front double doors of the clinic. Trying to pace our anxious excitement. The moment we are full inside, we find our eyes scouring to walls. Then moving into the examination room, we meet eyes with Scott, Ava, Chris, Noah, Mason, Drake, and Braeden. Braeden with her dark hair, dark skin, and a scar from a slash she took years ago from a demon wolf named Deucalion. They all wear the same expression except for Scott. His face is locked on his mother, Melissa.

"Mom." Scott frowns. I try to break the awkward silence because clearly both Scott and Melissa are uncomfortable.

"So. What's up?" I wonder while narrowing my eyes at Scott to break his stare at Melissa.

"Well," Scott intents and scratches his head, "Braeden just came back from Mexico and well she can tell you the rest." Scott gestures to Braeden who leans on the metal table with her arms crossed.

"I was in the area of La Puerta on 'business' and Noah told me about what happened. So, I decided to check the chapel out, " Noah smirks as she talks being flattered, " Maybe I could find something that you didn't. However, when I entered the earthquake bunker, it was occupied. Occupied with hundreds of those damn demons." After she takes a pause to allow us to process the situation, my eyes flinch to Ava and Noah, who immediately start holding hands. I smirk then drift my attention back to Braeden. "Allison, the number of demons guarding that breach is growing because when I took a retreat. When I was leaving, more were coming. Barely got out without being noticed. Well without a scratch." She pulls her jacket sleeve up to reveal a cut. Noah sits up straight at the sight, "Just glad it was only one."

The room goes into a low mumble chatter. I walk to Scott. Is it weird to have two Alphas in the pack because lately it's been hard to notice because Liam is also Alpha? Scott still has control over the pack but Liam has more. After Scott left for college, he turned his position over to Liam. But usually when an Alpha does that the previous Alpha's eyes turn blue and the new, red. But because Scott's a true Alpha. His remained the same just only turned the authority over to Liam. Weird?

"So, there has to be 100 and growing demons making a wall between us and hell." Scott seriously humors.

"Well, there are ways to push through this, " I pause, " go in fighting or go in stealth."

I watch as Scott slowly bring his right hand to his forehead massaging it. Probably because of the hard decisions he's going to have to make. Then this period of time makes my head become wondrous. Making me think about what I had discovered about myself earlier this morning.

I'm a phoenix. But I am not a shapeshifter or real Pheonix. They're just an extremely rare myth. I just have the powers of one. I remember what I read before. Can contact with people that aren't there, my tears can heal one's soul, and whatever I choose to touch, can burst into flames. Does this make me dangerous? Could I hurt the people I love? Well, I know I am in the early phases because my tears can't heal people and me sure as hell can't disintegrate what I touch. Could I even control that power? Is it an on or off switch? I feel myself start to breathe heavy in anxiety. My whole world blurring around me. Then someone grabs my arm and pulls me into the next room. When my vision finally adjusts I notice it's Ava.

"What's wrong with you. You reek of anxiety." Ava says concerned. But I stay quiet. "Allison, you can tell me anything." I clear my head and calm my heart rate.

"Ava, I," I hesitate, " I am not sure but I am more than a banshee."

Ava steps back a little with my words, "What do you mean? Are you hybrid?"

"No," I laugh, "Just something more."

"Like?" Ava says impatiently.

"I looked through the bestiary early this morning for symptoms and I found out I am a Pheonix," I answer.

"A Pheonix?" she wonders, "Aren't those really rare."

"Yeah," I explain, "Apparently this explain why I see my parents a lot. Pheonix's can contact the living and dead. I am only in the first stage." I anxiously say.

"What are the stages?" Ava wonders once more also as anxiously as I am.

"Well, the first is the banshee scream. The second is seeing and contacting the living and dead, the third being able to have tears that can heal any mortal soul. And..." I hesitate, " The last having the ability to disintegrate anything they come in contact with."

There a long silence where I expect Ava to become afraid. Instead, her face lights up in excitement.

"Allison! That's awesome." Ava replies enthusiastically.

"Really?" I wonder studdering with my words.

"Yeah, of course," Ava says swinging her arms around me for a hug. I embrace it for her consideration. With everything we've gone through, Ava's been there every step. Not complaining that her parents are gone because of me. "And Allison," Ava says stepping away.

"Yeah?" I reply.

"Don't worry," she assures, "We will get everyone back."

Then we both walk side by side back into to the room where Scott stands in front everyone.

"Okay, everyone. We are going to go to hell tomorrow at the full moon. It will be challenging and hard. But we are going with a purpose, a goal, " Scott adds, "We are going to reunite with our family, our friends, our pack," Scott glances at me with a smile, "Our whole pack. Liam, Hayden, Derek, Jordan, Malia, Corey, and Lydia and Stiles. There are so many people that we have lost Peter, Issac, Aiden, Ethan, Jackson, Theo, Cora, Boyd, Eirca, Kira, Sheriff Stilinski, and Allison." Everyone looks back at me them there attention back to Scott. Tomorrow we are going to come out of hell and back to Beacon Hills with everything the demons took from us." Cheers ring through the room and I stare at Scott, admiring his courage and dedication he has to his family.

"Tomorrow we are going to storm La Puerta."
