Third person pov
  The two packs arrive at New Orleans, bringing their stuff to the house Alex bought. They all rest in the living room after a day of travel.
  Stiles speaks up. "I think I should get a job. It'll make us seem more normal."
  Alex rolls her eyes. "You just want to hold onto the only piece of being human you have."
  Stiles nods. "Yep." He stands up and walks to the front door. "Well, I'm gonna go job hunting. Bye losers." He walks out and closes the door behind him.
  "Well," Theo stands up, "I'm gonna go explore. Later." He leaves.
  Selma turns to everyone that was still in the room. "He's going to get himself killed."

  Theo walks along the streets of New Orleans. He walks into an alleyway when he hears footsteps coming towards him. He turns around to see 4 men, all of them smelling of death. Vampires.
  "You shouldn't be here wolf. You know wolves aren't allowed the quarter," one of the vampires say.
  Theo crosses his arms, trying to talk his way out of this situation. "I actually didn't know. And please, I'm not trying to cause trouble. I'm looking for a hunter. She wants to wipe supernatural beings off the face of the earth."
  The vampires laugh, not believing him, and attack. Theo tries to fight back but fails. By the time the vampires left, Theo had been impaled and lost a lot of blood. He was going to die. He was healing but slow. Too slow. And just when things were looking up, looking normal. A silent tear slips down his cheek. He needs to tell Liam he loves him. With as much strength he could muster he howls. Thankfully Liam, Scott, Alex, and Selma hear. He might live after all.
  At the house the four hear Theo's howl. They run out of the house.
  "I told you the idiot was gonna get himself killed," Selma pants. Alex spreads her wings and takes flight, while Liam and Scott speed ahead. "Oh come on!" She stops. "Oh wait I can teleport. Dumbass."
  Selma arrives to Theo first and isn't surprised by the sight in front of her. She knew he was gonna get himself killed doing something stupid. Granted she thought it would be protecting Liam.
  The other three arrive shortly after.
  Liam runs to Theo, holding him. "Theo!" Liam begins to cry. "Theo! Please open you're eyes."
  Scott is shocked at the scene developing in front of him. It's uncannily similar to the way Allison died.
  Theo's eyes slowly open. "Liam," he struggles to keep his eyes open, "I lo-" he passes out.
  Liam starts to shakes Theo. "No Theo! Theo!"
  Scott snaps out of his trance and stops Liam from shaking Theo, noticing Theo's faint heart beat. He's dying. "Liam. Stop. You need to calm down."
  Liam turns to him with a tear stained face. His eyes glow a brilliant yellow. "How can I calm down! I LOVE HIM." Liam looks down realizing what he just said. There's no point in denying it anymore. Liam looks back at Scott. "Yea, I love him."
  Scott realizes this is a different love between Liam and Theo than Liam and Hayden. This is much more real. Scott grabs Theo's arm. "What if I give him the bite? He'll be a real werewolf. He'll heal."
  Liam looks up at his alpha, confused. "You'd do that? Theo killed you."
  Scott gives Liam a soft smile. "You love him and he obviously loves you too. It's different than you and Hayden. This is real."
  Selma interrupted. "You might wanna hurry up on that bite Scott. He's losing blood and fast."
  Scott grips Theo's arm as his fangs grow. He bites Theo's arm and Theo's eyes shoot open then close slowly.
  Scott puts Theo's arm down. "Hopefully the bite will take."
  Selma kneels next to Theo. "It will." She examines the bite. "I'll help with the healing process. He's too injured to move so I'll heal him to the point where we can move him, then we can bring him home and finish there." Scott nods.
  Selma begins to heal Theo while the other three create a circle around them, keeping watch. Soon enough at least twenty vampires surrounded them. They all seemed to follow one black man. He was wearing a beanie and a scarf with a gray jacket.
  The man signaled for the others to stand down when we got into a fighting position. "Who are all of you? Wolves aren't allowed in the quarter, and magic isn't either. Four of my night walkers said that the boy there," he pointed to Theo, "said he was looking for a hunter. One who wants to wipe out all "supernaturals"."
  Scott steps up slowly to the man, keeping an eye on all the vampires. "That's right. Monroe. She has a map of all the Nematons and that's where she'll start. There isn't one here, she's just passing through. Or she knows that a lot of vampires are here. She'll most likely start with you since your the leader, not the other way around like she tried to do with us."
  The man looks confused. "What the hell is a Nematon? And why do you smell different then a normal werewolf. Also why are you saying supernaturals like there are more than werewolves, vamps, witches, and hybrids."
  Scott looks equally confused. "You guys don't know about nematons? Or weindigos, anuk-ites, and type B werewolves?"
  "No I don't. No one I know does. Okay." The man looks like he's thinking. "How about I let you and your friends around in the quarter. As long as you tell me about these other supernaturals. Maybe I can help you with the hunter." He holds out his hand for Scott. "Marcel. I run the quarter."
  Scott excepts. "Scott McCall." Scott hands him a card. "My number." Theo starts to stir. "I have to go right now but call me and we can discuss somethings. But before that, please leave any supernatural you don't know alone for now. They might be apart of my pack." He points to Alex. "Or her's. Her pack is very dangerous and you can't kill them." Alex smiles sweetly and waves. "So I'll talk to you later." Scott runs to Theo and by now most of the vamps are gone except for Marcel and one or two others who are curious.
  Theo notices Scott. "Scott? How am I still alive?" His eyes look around frantically. "Where's Liam?"
  Liam comes closer to Theo. "I'm right here. Scott needs to talk to you." Theo nods as Scott helps him up.
  Scott clears his throat. "I gave you the bite."
  Theo looks at him with wide eyes as Marcel wonders what the hell "the bite" is. "You did what? Why? I killed you and betrayed your entire pack. You guys sent me to hell." Scott looks down guiltily. "You think I deserve your forgiveness and the right to be your beta?"
  Scott gives him a serious expression. "Theo you already gained my forgiveness. And you were dying, I didn't have much choice. Your already part of the pack, why not make it even more official." Scott smiles.
  Theo laughs and hugs Scott, startling him. "Thank you." He lets go and turns to Liam. "Liam what I was going to say before is that," he takes a deep breath, struggling with his words, "I love you."
  Liam looks surprised, then relieved. "Oh thank god." He hugs Theo tight, then let's go. "I love you too idiot." They all laugh.
  While watching them, a vampire goes up to Marcel about someone named Sophie. He then leaves.
  Scott stands up. "We should go home. Your going to have to adjuste to being a werewolf. It's different than being a chimera."
  They all leave, not aware of one special original watching them.
