Matt had left somewhere with Scott, possibly to go torment the two adults locked away in the holding room some more, possibly to get the bestiary. I had been left in the room under the surveillance of lizard boy, who seemed to be more like a robot than a boy right now. He was guarding the exit to the door, his back to Derek, Stiles, and I. Ha! He thought I'd run. I was emotionally paralyzed, while Derek and Stiles were physically paralyzed. I had taken a position on the floor; I hadn't bothered getting up after Matt pushed me. Though I was starting to get uncomfortable with my back leaning against the wooden bench, I still didn't move. I was clutching my side to stop the bleeding and try to dull the pain that had begun progressing again once Matt left. Derek, Stiles, and I sat in silence. I was looking up at the ceiling attempting to avoid their gazes.

"He shot you." Derek stated in a quiet voice.

"I'm fine, I'm okay."

"No Katherine, you're not fine!" Stiles disagreed.

"I'm fine! He grazed me, I'm fine."

"Matt still shot you." Stiles exclaimed quietly.

"No. That's not Matt." I gravely answered, not daring to look at the boys. It was obvious I was in denial, and I knew I had to get past it but for some reason I just couldn't. I couldn't accept the fact that he had shot both Scott and I without even flinching.

"Katherine, I know you're upset..." Stiles whisper was cut off by me.

"I'm not upset." I spat in a low voice. "I'm not anything." We fell back into silence. Stiles and Derek both realized how hard this was hitting me. I was conflicted, choosing between the life and death of my so-called friend whose friendship was all based on lies. I didn't want to believe the horrid things he'd done...kill those people, force Jackson to kill those people, shoot my best friend and I, and paralyze my other best friend and boyfriend. I needed to make a choice before my head exploded.

"Hey, you know what's happening to Matt?" Stiles whispered to Derek. I pretended not to listen to their conversation.

"Yeah, the books not gonna help him. You can't just break the rules. Not like this."

"What do you mean?" Stiles wondered.

"He means like karma." I interviewed.
