3rd PERSON POV

The group of teens were all piled on the bus for the cross country meet. To say the tension between the packs was uncomfortable is an understatement. Isaac and Boyd sat near the front, Aries and Oceanus were sitting right across from Scott and Ariadne. Stiles was in the middle of them. If anybody on the bus was doing the worst, it was probably Scott and Ariadne, although Scott didn't know about her condition yet.

Ariadne had tried to save them, she really did. But it was like fate had conspired against her. She watched as they fell, but in the back of her mind he couldn't help but wonder if he had done that on purpose.

" Hey, guys. Guys, still with us?" Stiles snapped his fingers in their face to catch their attention. They both gave weak nods and turned back towards the window or which direction they were looking in. Oceanus and Aries were watching the girl closer than usual, Oceanus could feel her pain, originally he thought it was because she was sore. But after they looked at her even more, they weren't so sure anymore.

" Yea sorry. What's the word?" Scott asked, they were studying and figured that being on the bus was probably the best place for right now. " Uh, anachronism" Stiles read off. "Something that exists out of its normal time" Ariadne told them, and Stiles nodded reading of the next word. " Can you use it in a sentence?" Scott asked him, " yes, it is completely incongruous that we're sitting on a bus right now on our way to some stupid cross country meet after what just happened, incongruous" Stiles rushed out and Scott nodded his head. " Out of place, ridiculous, absurd" he said and Stiles again read off the next word. " Perfect, next word. Uh, darach, it's a noun" he said and everybody shot him looks, " look we have to talk about it at some point. We're gonna be stuck on this thing for like 5 hours, why not?" Stiles questioned while everybody just looked their own ways. After the recent events they didn't feel like talking much about anything.

Stiles had read off another word and while Scott was in the middle of telling what it meant, the bus went over a bump and he groaned, catching the attention of everybody. "Woah buddy, you ok?" Stiles asked and Scott just nodded but they weren't so convinced. "We shouldn't have come. I knew we shouldn't have come!" Oceanus exclaimed, he knew that everybody was still trying to process and them being at a school meet wasn't the best idea. "We had to. There's safety in numbers" Scott reminded them but everybody else scoffed. "Yea we'll there's also death in numbers. It's called a massacre. Bloodbath, carnage, slaughter, butchery, wow" Stiles read synonyms for the word. " Stiles," Ariadne called out, catching his attention, " do me a favor and shut up for a while" she said and leaned her head back on the window. Aries and Oceanus seen how she really looked now, she was sweating, her face was pale, but they didn't see any blood.

Scott groaned out again, " alright Scott I'm telling coach" Aries told him but Scott protested, the last thing they needed was for Ethan to know he was still hurt. " I'm alright" Scott said but everybody shook their heads. "You don't look alright. Just let me see it" Stiles went to lift up his shirt but Scott pushed away his hands, " Scott come on, let us see" Stiles said again and Scott listened. He lifted his shirt and showed them the claw marks that were still kind of bleeding. " I know it looks bad, but it's because they're from an alpha" he put his shirt back down.

" Then how come Boyd and Isaac are fine?" Oceanus pointed up to the two betas, who were talking amongst themselves. " I can't believe he's dead. I can't believe Derek's dead" Ariadne said and laid her head on the seat, she couldn't help but see every time she closed her eyes, she watched his body drop.
