Have you ever woken up DEAD? Well I did... when I was eight years old I woke up in my bed covered in blood. I found my mother, father, and baby sister all dead in their sleep. Soaked in blood. From then on I felt like death. Everyone around me dies...

PETER GLANCES UP FROM THE LAPTOP TO DEREK WHO IS ON THE PHONE WITH SCOTT.
"They say he's in some kind of transparent casing made from the venom coming out of his claws."
"That sounds sufficiently terrifying." Peter clicks as fast as he can, scrolling through the text.
"They're also saying he's starting to move."
"Okay, I think I found something. Apparently what we've seen of Jackson so far is just the Kanima's Beta shape."
"Meaning what? It can turn into something bigger?" Derek frowns in disbelief.
"Bigger and badder."
Derek peers over Peter's shoulder. The glow of the computer screen lights both of their bewildered faces, "He's turning into that?"
Peter nods, "Yeah."
"That has wings."
"I see that."
Phone to his ear, Scott watches the body bag begin to move, "So what do we do?"
"Bring him to us."
"Not sure we have time for that." Peter waves Derek back toward the computer, "Look at this. Someone actually did an animation of it. Maybe it's a little less frightening than we-"
A hideous screaming comes from the laptop, "Nope, not at all..." Peter slams the laptop closed.
"We'll meet them halfway."
Derek sighs turning from Peter before talking once again into the phone, "Scott, get him out of there."
As Jackson's claws begin to push up at the body bag from inside, Derek's voice hammers at Scott.
"Go now!"
...
Between the rows of cars, three pairs of feet move quickly. One pair stepping forward, one stepping back, and one ahead of both quickly tip toeing through.
Luna pauses and glances around as they get to the end of the row, "Hold on, hold on."
Gripping an end of the body bag, Isaac pauses as Scott looks around in worry.
Luna nods, "Okay, go."
They quickly pass another row and reach Melissa's car. Setting his end of the body bag down, Scott yanks out the car keys and opens the driver's side door. Reaching in, he pulls the latch for the trunk. Leaving the keys in the door, they move to the back and slip the body bag inside.
Isaac slams the trunk closed and moves for the passenger door. But then he looks up to find Scott paused in confusion.
"What?"
"The keys..."
They're no longer in the driver's side door lock. Instead, they hang from someone's fist...Argent.
