CHAPTER FORTY-NINE
NORMAL IS OVERRATED

"Stiles, you're all right!", I happily smiled at the boy in the front seat, my mood falling at the fresh bruises filling his pale face. I was going to comment on it but I decided that if Gerard was where Scott told us to go to, then I'd deal with him there. I know that he's the one that did this and no one, especially not Stiles, could convince me otherwise.

"Yeah, I'm fine", Stiles gave a small smile back, clearly unhappy.

Stiles and Mini had arrived about ten minutes later after Scott berated Lydia and I with messages about Jackson being alive... kind of, and, something about Lydia being the only one that can save him. He later texted that Chris, Gerard, Allison, and Derek were there with him, Sam, and Isaac. The fact that Allison was there kind of set me off but I would just make sure not to speak to her. Mini resorted to the backseat and Lydia followed in the back with her, with me getting in the passenger. Once everyone was settled, Stiles let out a breath, "This has been one crazy night."

A few minutes passed as Stiles was driving extremely fast, practically racing down the road and I swear his feet never left the pedal. I could've sworn he even passed a couple of red lights but his dad's the Sheriff again, so, he'll be fine. I understood why he was darting down the road, though. Like Peter said, the window of opportunity was closing and we were continually losing so much time.

"Okay, okay, hold on!", Stiles spastically flailed his left arm around, his right arm on the steering wheel as the wind blew in our faces from him sprinting down the road, "I may have been missing but I know I'm not going crazy. Is Peter Hale really alive?"

My head reluctantly nodded at him, "Unfortunately, yes. He's alive and looks like he just got finished doing a Calvin Klein photoshoot."

Mini angrily exclaimed from the back, "And, you're telling me that none of you decided to kill him again?!"

"Mini", I sternly scolded and she sighed with her arms up in defense.

"I'm just saying."

Stiles continued to quickly drive, only for him to come to a stop in front of an old warehouse. "So... this is the Bahamas of places that Scott was screaming his werewolf ass off about over the phone?", Mini asked in disbelief.

I confusedly looked down at my phone with Google Maps already on the screen but before I could speak, Siri spoke for me.

"You have reached your destination."
