The cops had been called on Barrow, the whole substation was under investigation. The whole City was in a black out as well, due to Kira sucking up all the power. My dad had escorted our group to the Sheriff's office, which is where we are now.

I was sitting between Stiles and Scott, holding Scott's hand as I tried not to look up at the poor excuse of my father. The one who left us. The one who got angry when drunk.

"So when did you get there?"

"At the same time." Stiles vaguely answered.

"At the same time as who?"

"At the same time as me." Scott answered.

"By coincidence?"

"What do you mean coincidence?" Stiles questioned. They were trying to throw him off and stall.

"That's what I'm asking you," Raphael sighed, growing irritated, "The two of you, most likely three, arrived that the same time. Was that coincidence?"

"Are you asking me?" Scott asked.

"I think he's asking me." Stiles denied.

"I think he's asking both of you." Lydia chimed in.

"Okay, let me answer the questions." I smile at my lap, trying not to laugh at the fact that they were able to confuse him, "Let me ask the questions. Just so I have this absolutely clear. Barrow was hiding in the chemistry closet at the school. Someone left him a coded message on the blackboard telling him to kill Kira. Then Barrow took Kira to a power substation and tied her up with the intent of electrocuting her, which blacked out the entire town."

"Sounds about right." Stiles nodded.

"How did you know he'd take her to a power station?"

"Well, 'cause he was an electrical engineer. So where else would he take her?" Stiles threw back at him.

"That's one hell of a deduction there, Stiles." I could practically hear Stiles smirk as Raphael said that.

"Yeah, what can I say? I take after my pops. He's in law enforcement." Stiles smiled. I look up and noticed Noah snort before pretending to cough as Raphael looked back at him.

"Stiles, just, uh... Just answer the man," Noah told his son.

"We made a good guess."

"What were you doing, Hallie?" I looked towards him, fidgeting in my seat.

"I was at the animal clinic with Deaton." I tell him the truth.

"What were the two of you doing?" He turned to Scott and Kira, who both speak.

"Eating Pizza." Scott said, the same time Kira said, "Eating sushi."

"Eating Sushi," Scott and Kira switched their answers, "Eating pizza." Which they were lying.

"Eating sushi and Pizza." They finally sighed at the same time.

"You believe this?" Raphael asked, Stilinski as he turned around on the desk.

"To be honest, I haven't believed a word Stiles has said since he learned how to speak," Noah answered, causing me to laugh at Stiles reaction, "But I think these kids found themselves in the right place at the right time and that girl sitting there is very lucky for it."

"Kira, is that how you remember it?" He asked her.

Suddenly Scott, Lydia, and Stiles lean forward in their seats to make sure Kira didn't screw up. I rolled my eyes as I was still sat back against the cushions.
