In A Flash

Chapter Twenty Eight

Scott POV

Finally, my vision slowly starts coming back to me. I sigh in relief. I rush over to Kira and pull her into a hug. After a few moments, Malia is the one to pull us back to reality. "Where is Stiles?" She asks fearfully. Shoot, did I really just forget that Stiles was in here? He's probably still sick! I break away from Kira as everyone searches the room. Stiles is nowhere to be found. I start getting nervous. I walk over to the shattered glass. I can smell and see a little bit of blood, but it doesn't have the same scent as mine. It must be Stiles'. I guess he fell over. I feel so stupid. Even though I couldn't see, I should know when someone has fallen over. I just assumed that Stiles was just clumsy as it is very easy to be so when you can't see a thing. "Guys, the door is open. Since Stiles isn't a werewolf, someone must have come in here and taken him." Lydia announces worriedly. I walk back over to everyone else, who are standing near the entrance. I  suddenly hear that I am stepping on something. I look down and pick up the piece of paper underneath my shoe. How could we have missed this before? I guess we assumed it was already here. However, when I read what is on the paper, I know immediately that it couldn't have been here before us.

"Lydia, how come you didn't tell us you cracked the deadpool?" I ask with a frown as I scan the list. Everyone crowds around me in curiosity. "What?" Lydia asks in confusion. I look up at her. She leans over and looks at the page. I see her face fall. I look back down at the deadpool. There is one name and one price on there that has my head spinning. "According to this, Stiles is worth $30 million. He must have had this in his pocket, but it slipped out when he was taken." I inform the pack. I have a feeling Stiles didn't leave this room willingly.

"How is that possible? Stiles is human!" Isaac points out.

"I don't know," I sigh.

"Something isn't right here. Where is Stiles? Did someone take him?" Kira asks worriedly.

"Well, I don't think he waltzed out of here on his own." Malia gives input.

"Why would they take him?" Isaac asks.

"Well according to this, he is the most valued on the deadpool! Adding that to the theory of an assassin poisoning the school to wipe out the supernatural, I would assume it's an assasin and I don't think they'll be having a friendly chat!" I shout. Everyone looks at me in surprise. I don't care. I feel shocked, confused, angry and scared. I have no idea what's going to happen. "But why would they take just Stiles? We are supernatural. You're high up on the list, Scott. You were vulnerable. They missed a rare opportunity to kill you." Isaac elaborates. That's a good question.

"Maybe it's not an assaasin then." Malia concludes.

"Then who would it be?" Lydia wonders.

"Can we just slow down a minute? I really want to know why Stiles is worth so much on the deadpool. Has he not told us something? Is he in more danger than he's letting on? Do you think that he might need the tea leaves after all? What is going on here?" I ask the group, even though I know they can't really answer.

"We all know how you feel Scott, but first, let's just find Stiles and make sure he's safe." Kira tells me. I nod in agreement. "Yeah, you're right. I'm sorry. Stiles' safety is our first priority. Let's go back to Deaton's. Maybe him or Derek will have some idea on who took him or where he might be. After that, we can try tracking him down by scent." I instruct the pack. They all nod in agreement. We run out of the vault, but make sure to close it behind us. We sneak out of the school because it is still under quarantine. Somehow, we don't get caught. We get into our cars - or in my case, motorbike - and drive towards the animal clinic.
