A storm was beginning to rumble over the night sky as the pulled up at the power station. Scott was off his bike in a flash and running inside. Baby climbed over Stiles to push open the door of the jeep. "Couldn't you have just waited for me to get out?" Stiles yelped as Baby's knee almost landed on his dick. Baby's feet hit the ground and he was sprinting after Scott.

"Come on!" He called back from the entrance to the massive grey concrete building. "The guy wants to electrocute her! I don't want to miss the show".

"What do you see in him?" Lydia asked as Stiles reached in the back and pulled out his aluminium baseball bat.

"He's adorable", Stiles replied as he hopped out. He ran round to the passenger window. "Stay there and wait for the cops to show up".

"Why have I got to stay?"

"I only have one bat". Lydia huffed as Stiles turned and ran after Scott and Baby. She slumped in her seat and crossed her arms with a pout.

"I should steal one of Allison's tasers".

Baby was only a step behind Scott when Kira finally came into view. Barrow had tied her up in the power control room. The area of the station where the power switches and the transformers were kept. Kira was tied with cables to a metal fence. She straightened as she saw them. "Scott!" She called. "Look out". Scott didn't get her warning in time.

As soon as he entered the room, Barrow jumped out from where he was hiding. The bomber was tall and thin, looming more like a mad old man than Baby thought he would. He was holding a long thick cable. The end a mess of sparking wires. The cable caught Scott in the chest and the electricity sent him flying back. Baby ducked as the Wolf went sailing overhead before hitting a metal fence and collapsing to the floor. His limbs twitching with left over electricity as his muscles spasmed. Kira cried out at the sight.

"Holy shit you actually plan on electrocuting her", Baby laughed. Barrow lunged at him and he skipped out of the way.

"Baby!" Kira was struggling against her bonds.

Baby turned to her and grinned. "Do you not know what she is?" He asked. "But go ahead and electrocute her if you want. I want to see the show".

"Baby!" Both Kira and Scott gasped at him in betrayal.

"Children with glowing eyes", Barrow bared his teeth. "Need to be galvanised". Baby cackled as he skipped round another swing of the cable. He grinned at the bomber and let his eyes turn silver and his fangs lengthen. The man made a choking noise as fear radiated off him.

"Children with glowing eyes are out to get you", Baby sung in a nursery rhyme voice as he began to advance. Barrow stumbled back, his jaw quivering and his eyes fixated on Baby's silver ones.

"Stay back!" The man jerked the cable at him and Baby laughed, avoiding it with barely a turn. Seeing that his attack failed, Barrow stumbled back to where Kira was tied. He grabbed her by the hair and pulled her head back. His other hand holding the cable up to her warningly. "I will kill her", he warned. "Don't come any closer".

Baby stopped advancing but his grin didn't fade. "No you won't", He replied confidently. "A) because have you met her mother? That woman is terrifying. And B) you can't".

"Stop it Baby!" Scott shouted from where he was still twitching on the floor.

"Baby", Kira whimpered, her face pale. "Baby please". 

Baby's face softened at her fear. "It's going to be okay Kira", he reassured. "Trust me. I know what I'm doing". He took a step forwards.

"I warned you!" Barrow screeched. Kira and Scott both screamed as the man pressed the cables to Kira's chest. Immediately something exploded. Barrow went flying and sparks flew. Smoke filled the room as electricity cackled from every power box. Baby whooped at the sight and sounds. The brightness blinding him for a second. As the light and smoke faded, a form became visible. The sparks were jumping up into her hands. Kira's mouth was open and she was standing, her bond lying in burned pieces on the floor. When the last of the spark were absorbed into her palms, she lifted her head to stare at them.

Baby whooped again and clapped his hands. "Amazing light show", he grinned. "The first time you mother did something like that, it scared the shit out of me". He walked over and gently held out his hands. "Are you okay?"

Kira gaped at him. "You knew that would happen", she stuttered. "You knew that it wouldn't harm me".

"Of course I knew", Baby smiled then his face fell. "You didn't?"

"Of course I didn't!" Kira glared at him. "I barely know you. How the heck did you know I could do that?" Outside a siren began wailing.

"You need to talk to your mother", Baby replied. Behind them, stiles came to a panting halt in the doorway.

"The cops are here", he stated. He looked around. Eyes going from the blown and smoking power boxes to the burn and limp figure of Barrow on the floor. "Is he dead?"

Baby turned to the body. "Yeah. And he's been dying for a while". As they watched, a fly flew and landed on the man's face for a second before flying away.

"What the hell were you doing?" Scott growled as soon as the police had taken over the scene and they had been allowed to go home. Kira had been escorted home by a police officer and Lydia had already been dropped off at her house. They were all currently outside on the driveway to Baby's house. The night was late and Scott was furious.

"Hey, what are you so mad about?" Stiles asked. Scott snarled, teeth lengthening. He shoved up into Baby's face.

"He put Kira in danger. He knew something and instead of telling us, he let me get hurt and let her think that she was going to die. She was terrified".

"She was fine!" Baby snapped back. "You need to calm down, she was absolutely fine".

"That's not the problem. It's the fact that you never tell us anything. You know all these things about supernatural creatures and Druid stuff but you never actually tell us until it's too late. You let us get put in danger".

"Excuse you", Baby growled. Stiles was waving his hands between them in an effort to get them to stop and back down. Baby and Scott both ignored him. "But I often don't know what's important until it's too late. I didn't tell you what Kira was out of respect for her mother's wishes. But if you can't accept that I don't take orders from you, that I'm not one of your beta's Scott, then I won't help you". Baby's voice cracked and he cleared his throat, sudden rage calming. He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

Scott had stopped transforming. He stood still as he listened to what Baby had to say. "I help you because I like you", Baby clarified. "I help you because stiles is part of you pack and because I want to date him, I therefore help his pack. I think that your character is admirable for a werewolf and I like how you have protected Danny and Lydia. But let me clarify one thing. Vampires don't have packs. I have claimed the school and this land as my territory. You can respect me the same way you would your friends, or I can treat you like how I treat the Hale's. I can ban you from my territory and start counting favours. And trust me Scott, you don't want that".

Scott took a breath. "You knew without a shadow of a doubt that Kira wouldn't get hurt?" He asked.

"I knew that electricity wouldn't harm her. I would have stopped anything else".

"Why can't you tell me what she is?"

"If you want to know, go ask Mrs Yukimura. I don't go round revealing that you're a true alpha to every other supernatural I know about either. Part of being a vampire is that I can smell all of them and it would be unfair of me to out them when most of them just want peaceful lives". Scott nodded at the explanation.

"You're right", he sighed. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have gotten mad".

Baby nodded and sagged. "Thank you. I'm going to bed now". With those parting words, he turned and trudged towards his door. Scott and Stiles watched as he unlocked it and disappeared inside. They watched the lights turn on upstairs.

"Dude", Stiles grumbled at Scott. The Wolf turned to his best friend guiltily. Stiles narrowed his eyes at him in annoyance. "I understand why you were angry. I find it frustrating when Baby doesn't tell me thing either but I know that it isn't due to something bad. He has a lot of trauma when it comes to his interactions with other creatures before us. What you did, getting all wolfy in his face. Not cool bro. Not cool". With that, Stiles walked up to Baby's front door and disappeared inside. Scott left feeling guilty and frustrated in the drive.
