CHAPTER EIGHT:
marcie was at the sheriffs station with stiles and malia.
they were going over all the chimeras that have died. sheriff stilinski put an x over tracy's picture.
"chimeras." he said looking at her picture.
"two dead chimeras." stiles said.
"and eight new ones." malia said.
"so, that's ten in all." stiles said.
"i'm thinking maybe 11." stiles' father said.
"eleven?" marcie asked as sheriff stilinski put up another picture.
when marcie saw who it was, she looked at stiles and saw his eyes widen. it was a picture of donovan.
marcie grabbed his hand and laced their fingers together before squeezing his hand for support.
"our station tech guys confirmed something for me... they said, both the holding cell lock and cameras could have malfunctioned because of something electromagnetic. you said that, uh, these guys..." stiles' father said picking up the book.
"dread doctors." malia said.
"are we really calling them that?" sheriff stilinski asked.
"unfortunately." marcie said.
"so they broke donovan out?" malia asked.
"that's how they got into eichen, isn't it?" noah asked.
"donovan's a chimera." malia said walking over to the picture.
"yeah. but... is he a failure like lucas and tracy?" his father said.
stiles let go of marcie's hand and walked to the back of the room.
"if he is, he's probably dead." malia said.
"not until i've seen a body." sheriff said.
"you're uncharacteristically quiet." his dad said turning to stiles.
"sorry, uh... i'm just trying to think about it. uh... these were all teenagers, right? so, now shouldn't we be trying to figure out why these teenagers? if the dread doctors, if they went through all that... burying them, killing them, breaking one of them out of jail..." stiles trailed off.
"they couldn't have been chosen at random." sheriff stilinski said.
"they had to have something in common." malia said as marcie nodded in agreement.
"something that made them right... right for this experiment." stiles' father said.
