Apprehension ➵ Allison Argent (6)

Twenty-Five

Phoebe's POV:

"Where does this take us?" Theo warily asks.

"The hospital."

My eyes widen with disbelief. "Hospital? They'll definitely catch us!"

"Look, we can't outrun them, right?" Liam adjusted his seat to face Theo and I. "I know every inch of that building--every room, every corner."

Theo scoffed. "Hide? That's the best that we've got?"

"We just need to keep them away from Scott for as long as possible."

"Why? What's he gonna do?" He insisted.

"He's gonna remember." I quickly answer. "He has to remember Stiles and Olivia.

"What if he can't?"

"Then the rest of us..." Liam swallowed. "We get forgotten."

Theo pulls into the parking lot of the hospital and swerves the car to a stop near the parked ambulances. We scramble out of the car and sprint towards the entrance but Liam pauses in his steps.

"Liam, come on! We don't have much of a lead on them." Theo insisted, seeing Liam eye the ambulance with curiosity until he abruptly pulled open the ambulance door and flicks a switch, causing the sirens to blare. "What the hell are you doing!"

He angrily pulls Liam away, reaching inside to flick the sirens off but Liam shoved him away. "Don't! Don't turn it off!"

"You want to bring them all here?" Theo raised his voice. "Every single one of them?"

"Guys--"

"That's exactly what I want to do!" Liam shoved him back again. "'Cause if the Ghost Riders are here, that means they're not trying to get to Scott."

I worriedly glance at the road. "I think we should go--"

"So you don't care if they get to you?" Theo ignored my worries, still keeping his hardened expression towards Liam.

"They're gonna get to all of us eventually!"

I pinch the bridge of my nose in annoyance. "Can we please--"

"You! You're going first!" He exclaimed, threateningly taking a step closer to him. "That's the only reason I'm with you because while they're busy wrapping a whip around your neck or shooting a hole in your head, I'll be running the other direction! I'm on your side as long as it helps me."

"Trust me, I know--"

I step in between them and harshly shove them away from each other. "Will you two shut up!" I exclaim in frustration, causing their eyes to widen. "I'm this close to locking the two of you out of the hospital just so the Ghost Riders can take you and I won't have to hear your guys' bickering anymore! So shut it."

"But he's--"

"He started--"

"I said shut it." I seethed. "Now, quit arguing like an old married couple, and let's get going!"

I move past them, hearing them follow behind me in silence. "Liam, where's the hiding spot?"

Allison's POV:

Scott wildly turned his head left and right, almost as if he was searching for the voices he was hearing in his head. Remembering.

"Scott." Lydia called, noticing his frantic expression. "try to find them. Try to find them in your memories."

"You guys hit it off from the very beginning...I don't want you guys to lose that." He whispered with his brows furrowed before turning his head to the side. "I don't...think I would've survived if I didn't have Stiles with me."
