After school, Liam, Mason and I went down to the tunnels, not the Dread Doctors ones obviously. These tunnels led up to the vent where the rats came from. I don't even know why I agreed to come here in the first place.
"You know, it's not as irrational as you think. There's actually an evolutionary advantage of having an innate fear of spiders, snakes, and rats." Mason said as he flashed the flashlight towards the direction we were walking into.
"What is that?" Liam asked and I should have never turned my head to look.
I turned and there was a pile of about more than fifty dead rats.
"Oh, no, no, no-" I shrieked and took a few steps back.
"It's a rat king." Mason said.
"We need to call Malia." Liam said as he pulled out his phone.
"You guys are out of your minds." I said as Mason grabbed a stick and started poking at the rats.
A few minutes later Malia came.
"You've got two minutes." She said to Liam as she stood in front of the dead rats
"What do you think happened?" Liam asked Malia.
"Rats freaked out...Crawled all over each other, got their tails knotted up. And tore each other apart trying to break free." Malia said as she dug her hand into the rat pile.
"You read upon rat king?" Mason asked Malia.
"What's rat king?" Malia asked as she picked up and rat and smelled it. She waved it over to Liam and Mason.
"Oh! I'm good. Thank you." Liam said as he stepped back.
"Yep, i'm, good just over here." Mason said as he ran over to where I was.
"Can you smell it? It's fear." Malia said as she held up the rat.
Liam shook Malia's arm and she dropped the rat.
"Yeah, it's the same ones as the ones in the math classroom." Liam said.
"Why were there rats in a classroom?" Malia asked as she wiggled her brows.
"Uh, they ran in during second period, about fifty of them." Liam said as Malia checked her phone.
"Your two minutes are up." Malia said as she started waking out.
"Where are you going?" Liam asked.
"Paris. This isn't my problem." Malia said.
"So you think this is a problem?" I ask.
"Maybe, Probably. But you've got it covered and i've got a plane to catch." Malia said as she turned the corner.
"I thought it was delayed?" Mason said.
"Rerouted!" Malia yelled.

Mason and Liam managed to get a rat into a small box, so we could take it to my mom so she can take a look at it.
"Mom?" I said as I pushed passed the hospital doors, with Mason and Liam in either side of me.
"Hey baby!" My mom said as she hugged me. Oh my gosh. You guys brought me dinner? That's really nice ." She said as she looked at the bag Mason was holding.
"No,It's not dinner." Mason said.
"It's not dinner?" My mom asked as she wiggled her brows.
Mason shook his head and grabbed the small box from the bag opening it up a little for only my mom to see as she crinkled her nose up.
"It's definitely not dinner." She said as she backed away a little bit from the box.
"We we're hoping you could take a look at it for us." Liam said.
"Well, I was hoping that someone was going to bring me dinner. Now is not the time for a rat autopsy, so get yourselves out of here." My mom said as she patted my back.
"Mom." I whined.
"No, out." She said and Mason pushed us towards the exit.
"Okay, all right." Mason said, my hearing hopped onto two older men fighting.
I turned around and they were fighting towards my mom.
"You started it!" The taller guy said as he shoved the shorter one.
"Hey, now, that's called assault!" The shorter guy said.
"Can I get security over here!" My mom yelled as I went over to her.
"Assault? Really?" I taller man said.
"Yeah!" The shorter man said.
"Sir, you need to calm down..." I said as I got in front the both older men. Bad Idea.
The taller guy threw a punch to my cheek, I rose from anger. My fangs and eyes flickered my claws showed out. There were nurses screaming.
"What the wh-" The taller guy said as he looked at me. I looked away and ran off.
I ran off to the nearest elevator I could find I hid my face and my claws. I've been doing so good in controlling myself. Why am I wolfing out now? I got into the elevator and presses 'closed door' I whispered to myself.
"The sun... The moon... The truth." I whispered as I started to feel myself go back to normal.

Liam and Mason we're able to find me, We are now headed to the School for the late night library study hall. Mason pulled up at the School parking lot. I got out of the seat and closed his car door.
"Hey, what'd you do with that rat?" Liam asked Mason as he got out the car.
"I... I lost it, in the fight." Mason said. "You're mom is gonna kill us."
"I don't think we can ever go back there, ever." I said as I chuckled leaning against Mason's car.
"Yeah, that might work for you, but, what about me?" Mason asked.
"It could be a problem." I said and shrugged.
"Yeah." Mason said as he looked towards the school building.
I turned my head and saw a truck there that I knew a little too well. Theo's truck was parked at the school.
"You ready?" Mason asked as he and Liam started walking towards the building.
"You guys go ahead, I'll be there in a minute." I said and Liam and Mason looked at each other and shrugged it off waking into the School building.
I stayed leaning down on Mason's car debating if I should invite Theo to come study with us.
Fuck it.
I walked over to his truck and knocked on the window lightly. No response. I peek my head to see if I can see anything, there's a sleeping Theo, he's in the backseat with a small pillow and a small blanket.
I knock again, and this time his body jolts up. Once he sees its me he calms a bit and lowers the window.
"Hey, what are you doing here?" He asked softly.
"What are you doing here?" I asked .
"Oh- I- I fell asleep I was- gonna go to the study group thing." Theo said, he looked rather nervous.
"Do you want to come with?" I asked and he nodded slightly before giving me a soft smile.
Theo got out of his car locking it before we headed inside. He walked next to me, not to close. We went inside and the first thing I heard was a growl. I looked over at Theo, his eyes already in mine.
We turned the hallway and saw Mason running towards us.
"What was that growl?" I asked as I smelt his fear.
"Liam- Hellhound." Mason panted. "There's another Hellhound. He's fighting with Parrish but he knocked him out. Liam is fighting the Hellhound."
"Okay, Mason get in the car, please do not come out." I said and Mason nodded heading outside.
Theo and I walked into the hall and there was Liam fighting the Hellhound. Theo and I growled at the Hellhound his eyes land on me.
I run over and rip out a locker door hitting it on the back off the Hellhounds back. He let go off Liam and growled, shoving me into the locker doors. The Hellhound goes up to me and slashed the side of my shoulder with his claws, that have Hell Fire. Then again in my leg.
Liam and Theo started punching the back off the Hellhounds back, but he did nothing. He then slashed my stomach which hurt like a mother- fucker .
From the corner of my eye I saw Mason. God dammit he never listens. He came running with his metal bat that Stiles' have gave him. The Hellhound easily fit card of him and threw him on the other side of the wall.
The Hellhound dropped me and went over to Liam. I felt the burning sensation on my slashes they burned like Hell. Theo rushed over to me to help me up, but I couldn't. Liam and The Hellhound finished fighting each other, I looked up and The Hellhound was gone.
Mason got up and git a grip on Liam since he couldn't walk.
"Bring, Daisy over to the locker room." Mason told Theo.
Theo stood up and bent down to grab me by my waist to help me walk to the locker room where Mason and Liam were at. Theo sat me beside Liam. Mason took off Liam's shirt and Mine. Damn, the slashes looked ever worse.
"It should be healing faster than this." I said .
"It's hell fire. I mean, all things considered... you're doing, great." Theo said.
"We'll great isn't supposed to look like this." Liam pointed out to his wounds.
"You two fought a Hellhound... On your own without Scott." Mason said with a proud tone.
"I don't think i'll ever get used to that." I mumbled to myself.
"Wounds heal...People move... Things change." Mason said as he put a supporting hand on my left knee.
"Yeah." Liam sighed to himself.
"It still hurts, though." I said and Mason gave me a small supporting smile.
â¢â¢â¢
It was a little later, Mason took me home and Scott just got home as well after finding the Hellhounds body.
"The Hellhound was found dead." Scott said..
"Really? Who killed him?" I asked and he took out a bullet from his front jean pocket, It had the 'argent' symbol.
"Argent? Killed him?" I asked and he shook his head.
"We don't know yet." He said. "Somethings going on, we can't tell Stiles."
"Why?" I asked.
"Cause he's been wanting to go to Washington for the longest. He seems so happy, I don't want to ruin that." Scott said.
"Are you leaving?" I asked and he shook his head.
I went over to him and hugged him.
"Good, I don't know how I would do without you big bro." I said as he wrapped his hands on my back.
He chuckled and held me tight.
