Allison, Isaac, and I are getting the two tranq guns ready while Stiles', Scott, and Lydia are with the twins.

"Do you think you can hone in on Malia? If not, we're going to be in the woods for a long time." I asked Isaac as I was getting the xylazine ready for my gun.

Since there were only three of them, Allison had two and I had one.

"I've got a pretty good lock on her scent. It's actually kind of strong." Isaac replied.

"What is it?"

"Pee." 


I laughed as I handed the last bottle of xylazine and a syringe to Allison.


Isaac and I watched her, as she got so shaky that she dropped the bottle. Before I knew it, she was pointing the gun at me and Isaac stepped in front of me and held his hand out.

"Allison!" Isaac screamed

"Oh, my God! I'm so sorry. I'm... I'm so sorry. I don't know what I was doing. I'm sorry." She put the gun down and turned around.

"How am I supposed to help anyone if I'm like this? What am I supposed to do?" She asked us but mostly herself. 


Isaac and I walked up to her.


"I'm here to help you." I told her as I grabbed the bottle from her hand and gave her a sympathetic smile

Scott, Stiles, Lydia, Allison, Isaac, and I headed out to Beacon Hills Preserve also known as the woods. We got out of our cars and just stood looking at each other before Lydia broke the silence.

"Anyone else think we might be doing more harm than good?"

"We're trying to keep a father from killing his own daughter." Scott said.

"Actually, we're trying to keep a guy from killing a coyote who is actually his daughter, who we don't know how to change from a coyote back to his daughter." Isaac remarked.

"And again with the not helping." Stiles said rolling his eyes.

"Did you bring it?" Scott asked Allison and I.

We opened the trunk of the car and pulled out our individual tranq guns that were ready to shoot. We held them in our hands and heard a shot come from deeper in the woods. Scott jumped on his bike and Isaac, Allison, and I took off after him.

"Isaac, wait up!"

"There are traps all over those woods. Near the trails. Probably near the car crash. And Tate is out there with a rifle. I want you to stay out of those woods. You got that, Stiles?"


I heard those words as I was running. But I didn't how I was able to hear Stiles' conversation with his dad from afar.

I heard a scream. Allison and I ran faster and finally caught up to Isaac. His foot was stuck on a claw trap and he was bleeding. He was screaming and trying to pry it off.



"Allison! There he is." Isaac screamed out in pain.

We looked to where he was pointing and Mr. Tate was pointing his gun at Malia. Let me remind you that Malia is and has been trapped inside a coyote's body. He was going to kill her.
