After the conversation in the morgue, the sheriff left to investigate and Ms McCall returned to her nurse duties. Baby returned to Danny's room. The boy still sleeping as peacefully as when he left him. Baby sighed at him, crossing his arms as he glared down at his sleeping best friend. "What the fuck did you do to get attacked by a Darach?" He muttered rhetorically. "There must be a reason Danny boy. You don't just start vomiting mistletoe out of no where".  Danny responded with a sleepy groan.

Baby threw his hands up. "Whatever. I'm so going to chew you out once this is over. 'Don't get involved with supernatural business', my arse". He stuck his tongue out childishly and flopped back into his plastic chair with a sigh. Danny's school bag, which had been dropped off by Ethan earlier, was on the floor next to his bed. Baby hooked the strap with his foot and dragged it over. He was just unzipping it when the door opens quietly.

"What are you doing here?" Stiles's voice echoed. Baby shushed him as Danny stirred on the bed. Stiles huffed and snuck into the chair at Baby's side. "What are you doing here?" He repeated in a hissed whisper.

"Because I do know the meaning of the word friend and my best friend is in hospital. What do you think I'm doing here?" Baby snapped back. Stiles winced at the reference to his harsh comment a few days ago.

"I'm sorry about that. It was unfair of me". The apology was mumbled but Baby accepted it.

"Okay".

Stiles rolled his eyes. "Now give me the bag. I need to look through it". He reached for Danny's bag but Baby gripped it closer to his chest.

"No. I'm looking through it. I think that Danny found something which is why the Darach tried to kill him".

"That's what I thought!" Stiles yelped. He reached out to snatch the bag again and Baby slapped his hands away.

Danny inhaled deeply and both of them jolted. "What are you doing?" He slurred, still half asleep.

"I'm not doing anything. This is a dream you're having", Stiles answered quickly. He went to grab at the bag again.

"Why are you trying to steal my stuff?"

"Because he's mean", Baby answered. Danny yawned, still too doped up to really notice what was going on.

"This is a dream. This is happening only in the dream remember", Stiles reminded. He then squeaked as Baby batted his hands away. Baby hissed at him, barring his fangs as he began rummaging through Danny's stuff.

"Don't try that with me Vampy. I deal with Wolves for a living. You're not scary".

"Why would I dream about you two flirting?" Danny mumbled.

Baby gasped. "We're not flirting". This was not flirting. He knew when he was flirting and this was definitely not it.

"I dunno Danny. It's your dream, take responsibility for it". Stiles took advantage of Baby's distraction to snatch the bag away. He gave a him a victory smirk before looking through it. Baby scowled at him and shuffled closer to see. After a second, Stiles pulled out a wad of papers. "Oh Danny boy, you might have actually found something here".

Danny answered with a snore.

"Deaton's got to be at one of the six locations but they're all over town", Scott's voice echoed down the phone. Stile was holding the device in one hand as he and Baby walked away from the hospital. Night had fallen and the streets were rapidly becoming gloomy. Danny's parents had finally arrived and dismissed Baby from his watcher duty. So he was now following Stiles, as usual.

"I don't know if we can get to all of them fast enough".

"We might not have to", stiles replied. "Danny was doing a project on something for Mr Harris' physics class and I think it actually means something".

"What project?"

"It was on Telluric currents", Baby spoke up. "You know, those electrical currents that move through the earth".

"Oh, you found baby. Hi baby", Scott greeted.

"Hi Scott".

"Guys, minds focused please", stiles huffed. He paused to look at Baby reproachfully. Baby just grinned.

"Yes. Did you say currents?" Scott asked.

"Yep".

"Meet me at the clinic". There was a click as Scott hung up. Stiles glared at the phone and sighed.

"Come on", he waved at Baby. "My truck is parked over there". Baby skipped after him with a smile.

"Okay so what has this kid's homework have to do with finding Deaton?" A Wolf girl said. She and Lydia had met up the Scott, stiles and Baby at Deaton's vet clinic. They all surrounded one of the metal tables, Danny's Homework and some photos Scott had brought arranged in front of them. Because they were at the clinic, Baby he helped himself to his slushie cup of blood. Today it was Type B positive. He slurped on it loudly. The Wolf girl and Lydia giving him disgusted looks.

"Because it's not just some homework okay?" Stiles shot back. "It's a project on geomagnetic fields. They flow through the earth and can even be affected by lunar phases". He began unfolding Danny's work, arranging it over the table. "Now look at this. This is a note from Harris on Danny's proposal".

"I strongly advise you to choose another subject. The ideas here, while innovative and thoughtful, border on pseudo-science", Lydia read allowed. "Not suitable for class".

"Harris wasn't just a sacrifice", Scott voiced. "He knew something".

Baby hummed. "I still didn't like him".

"Ditto", Stiles smiled slightly. "But check this out. Allison's dad wasn't the only one with a map, right? Danny had one too". He unfolded the map so that everyone could see.

Baby leaned closer and followed a line in pen with his finger. "Danny marked all the currents. Beacon hills is accurately named. I heard about it but I didn't realise there was so much energy here. I mean, this and the Nemeton was what brought me here but still". His voice drifted off as he blinked. They were all staring at him.

"Neme-what?" Lydia asked.

"Guys that's not important right now", Scott snapped. "Look", he pulled out the photos and laid them over Danny's map. "They match. There's three places right, where they were kidnapped and where their bodies were found".

"They're right on a current", Lydia pointed out.

"Right. So where they are being held must be somewhere in between".

"You said that there's six more bodies to be found. Deaton's one of them, so he must be somewhere"- stile stopped as the Wolf girl (baby still didn't know her name) held out a hand.

"Stop. There. He's in a vault. He's in the same vault". A tension filled silence fell over them.

"Ah! I remember you now", Baby grinned and pointed at the Wolf girl. She was small with brown hair and sharp features. "You and that other Wolf guy attacked me in the woods last full moon. You tasted disgusting, what was your name again?"

"Cora. Her name is Cora", Lydia answered for her.

Cora fixed him with a dirty look. "Yeah and your freaking vamp venom gave me a hangover". She snarled and Baby bared his teeth back.

"Guys stop. This is not the time. We need to go", Scott commanded. Cora paused as her phone beeped.

"Wait. It's Boyd. His plan didn't work. They cut the power".

They all shred panicked looks. Baby didn't know what that meant but it didn't sound good. He slurped his blood, watching with wide eyes. "It's just like he said", Scott muttered. "Go, I can save Deaton myself".

"Scott, what about us?" Stiles called as Scott began backing towards the door.

"Cora can't get there fast enough without you. Take Baby. We can save both of them". He disappeared round the corner.

Stiles sighed as he looked over the three of them. "Alright let's go".

"I have no idea what's going on", Baby pointed out. "What if I don't want to go".

"Oh for gods sake", Stiles huffed. He grabbed Baby by the wrist and began walking. Baby let himself be dragged along, amused at the whole thing.

Unedited

Scott and Baby are like Yukio and Wade.

"Hi Wade".

"Hi yukio".
