"Oh, hold on! Stop! Did you see that? Scroll back."
Scott said as he, Stiles and Stilinski watched the camera footage from the hospital. "That's him! That's Matt!" Stiles said pointing at the screen making his dad look at it confused, "All I can see is the back of someone's head."

"Matt's head, yeah! I sit behind him in history. He's got a very distinct cranium! It's weird." Stiles said making his dad look at him weird, "Are you crazy?" Stilinski asked making Stiles sigh.

"All right, fine. Then look at his jacket, huh? How many people do you know who wear black leather jackets?" Stiles said and Stilinski looked at him weird, "Millions Stiles. Mirabella wear one everyday."He said making Stiles purse his lips. "Okay, can we scroll forward? There's gotta be a shot of him coming at one of the cameras."

Stilinski keeps the footage going until Stiles spoke up again, "Right there! Stop, stop! See, there he is again."

"You mean there's the back of his head again."

'Okay, but look- he's talking to someone." Stiles says and Scott leans in for a clearer view before his eyes widen, "He's talking to my mom."

"Bell." Someone said shaking her shoulder gently making her groan before waking up. She opened her eyes to see Deaton leaning over her with a concerned look on his face, "Ow." She groaned grabbing her arm that still had claw marks.
Deaton slowly helped her sit up before she looked around, "Where are they?" She asked and he sighed and shrugged

"They were gone when I got here. Let me see your arm." He said and she held her arm out. "You'll be weak for a few hours, so that will slow down the healing. But you'll be okay. Okay, we need to get your brother up. There's not much time." Deaton said before starting up, he helped her stand up before quickly grabbing her arms as she stumbled a bit. They both walked over Derek and Mirabella crouched down next to him and she started shaking him, "Derek!Wake up!"She yelled.

"Maybe this will help."
Deaton said before pulling out a dog whistle making her roll her eyes, but she put her hands on her ears as he brought it up to his lips before blowing into it. Derek jolts awake with a sharp breath before he noticed Deaton and Mirabella in front of him.
"Can you hear me? I need you to answer, Derek. We don't have much time." Deaton said.

"That sounds... What was it?" Derek asked as Mirabella helped him sit up, before laughing at the look on his face when Deaton held up the dog whistle. Annoyed, Derek attempts to stand.
But he wobbles, nearly toppling back to the floor as Deaton and Mirabella grabbed him, "You're going to be weak for several hours." Deaton said

Clutching to Deaton's arm, Derek's gaze moves to the broken floorboards and the hole in the floor of the house. "It actually happened." He said, "Don't worry-you're still an Alpha. But, as usual, not a particularly competent one.." Deaton said making her snort.

"Where is he?"

"I wish I could tell you."

"Then how about you tell me what you're doing here, and why you're helping me?" Derek said irritated "Helping your family actually used to be a pretty important part of my life. Helping the two of you was a promise I made to your mothers." Deaton said making Derek and Mirabella looked at him shocked.

"You're the one my sister talked about. She said you're a kind of adviser? Something like what Bell is to an Alpha, but not really." Derek said and Deaton nodded, "She was right. And I have some advice that you need to listen to very closely right now. What Peter managed to do doesn't come without a price. He'll be physically weak, so he'll rely on the strength of his intelligence, his cunning. He's gonna come at you, the both of you. He'll try to twist his way inside your head, preying on your insecurities. He'll tell you that he's the only way you can stop Gerard. Do not trust him."
