Here's the next chapter brought to you by an emotional breakdown and a best friend who told me to be nice to you guys.

-Recap-

 We got her patched up and stabilized, but she went through so much trauma that she pretty much just shut down."

"What are you saying, Mom?" Scott mutters.

"Lyrica is in a coma. And we have no clue when or if she'll wake up."

(3rd P.O.V.)

"Can we see her?" Derek asks, surprisingly calm.

"Yeah, of course. Follow me." Melissa turns, leading them to a hospital room, where Lyrica is laid on a bed. "I'll give you guys some space."

"She looks so peaceful." Stiles mutters, walking up to her side. She has several tubes connected to her, but she can still manage to breathe on her own.

"What happened?" Scott asks, watching as Stiles and Derek each take one of her hands.

"She fought the kanima for hours before it got the upper hand and paralyzed her. Then she had a seizure." Derek says, his eyes locked on his mate.

"Kanima?" Stiles questions. "You know what it is?"

"I didn't know until it was confused by its own reflection."

"Stiles, we can worry about it later. Right now, we need to try to help Lyrica." Scott sighs.

"How's Isaac going to handle this?" Stiles asks, looking at Derek.

"Not easily. I'm gonna have to find a way to sneak him in here at night because he's gonna throw a fit."

"I'm gonna have to deal with my dad." Stiles sighs. "He's probably already been notified that there was an animal attack. He's gonna need a statement from all of us."

"Well he can suck it up." Derek rolls his eyes. "It's not his problem."

"He's the sheriff, Derek. And her biological father." Scott defends his father figure.

"I don't care if he's the sheriff. And the fact that he's her father means nothing. He abandoned her and Hunter when they were kids. He lost all right to be her father the second he turned them away." Derek snaps, whirling to glare at Scott.

"Derek. Your eyes." Stiles whispers and Derek sighs, closing his eyes to hide the red glow.

"I'm gonna go get the betas." He says, opening his eyes to reveal their usual green. "I'll be back soon."

(Isaac's P.O.V.)

"Hey guys." I greet Boyd and Erica as they enter the house. "Where's the others?"

"Isaac, we need to tell you something." Erica says, both of them walking to sit on the couch beside me.

"What's up?" I question, pausing my movie.

"Something happened while we were at the school." Boyd sighs. "We don't know everything that happened, but Lyrica got hurt."

"What?" I ask. My heart feels like it's going to beat out of my chest, it's beating so fast.

"She wasn't breathing at first. But Derek got her heart beating again and he, Scott, and Stiles took her to the hospital. They're gonna call us when they hear any news."

"I thought we couldn't go to the hospital because we heal too fast?" I ask, noticing tears trailing down my cheeks.

"Her condition was too bad. She would have died if they didn't take her." Erica mutters, mascara running down her face as she cries.
