"Derek? Derek, where are you?" Jennifer calls into the loft
"Right here." He says and she runs to him and hugs him
"Thank God! Something happened at the recital, at the school, okay? I need to tell you before you hear it, before you hear it for any of them." She says.

"From who?" Derek says
"Scott, Stiles... They're gonna tell you things-- things you can't believe. You have to trust me, okay? You trust me." She says
"What is it?" He asks.

"Promise you'll listen to me." She says
"I promise." He says and she kisses him and then pulls away
"They're already here, aren't they?" She says and Stiles, Scott and Rayne walk out of where they were hiding.

"So, they told you it was me? That I'm the one taking people?" She asks
"We told him you're the one killing people." Scott says
"Oh, that's right. Committing human sacrifices? What, cutting their throats? Yeah, I probably do it on my lunch hour-- that way, I can get back to teaching high school English the rest of the day. Makes perfect sense." Jennifer scoffs.

"Where's our dad?" Stiles asks as he holds Rayne's hand
"How should I know? Derek, tell me you don't believe this?"
"Do you know what happened to Rayne and Stiles' father?" Derek asks.

"No!"

"Ask her why she almost killed Lydia." Scott says
"You almost killed Lydia. Oh you are such a fucking bitch." Rayne says
"Lydia Martin? I don't know anything about that!" She objects.

"What do you know?" Derek asks
"I know that these boys and girl, for whatever misguided reason, are filling your head with an absurd story-- And one they can't prove, by the way." Jennifer says
"What if we can?" Scott says holding a jar.

"What is that?" She asks
"My boss told me it's a poison and a cure... Which means you can use it... And it can be used against you." Scott says
"Mistletoe?" She says and he throws it at her reveal her true self.

"Oh that's an ugly fucking bitch." Rayne says and Derek picks her up by her throat
"Derek, wait! WAIT! You need me!" Jennifer says
"What are you?" He asks.

"The only person who can save your sister... Call Peter... Call him!" She shouts
"It's not good. She's in and out of consciousness, she's vomiting up black blood, along with one other alarming substance..." Peter says through the phone
"Mistletoe." Derek mumbles.

"How did you know that?" Peter asks
"Derek... Derek, what are you doing?" Scott asks
"Her life... it's in my hands!" She says and he tightens his grip.

"Stop! Derek, stop!" Stiles asks
"Stilinski... you'll never find him..." She says
"Derek! Derek!" Rayne says loudly and he lets her go.

"That's right. You need me. All of you."

🪐

"What is it?" Scott asks Stiles as they drive to the hospital
"I don't know... Something feels wrong about this, you know? We proved it to Derek, but she still had this look like it didn't matter. You know, like it was all going to plan. You saw it, didn't you?" Stiles says.

"I still can't believe they fucked." Rayne says in disgust.

🪐

They park up at the hospital and Rayne hands him a bat as she gets out
"What's that?" Scott asks
"Well, you got claws, I got a bat." Stiles answers.

"What does Rayne get?" He asks
"I have a Swiss Army knife in my pocket, not so effective but..." Rayne just shrugs, she hadn't told anyone that she was a werewolf let alone an alpha. She couldn't find the right time, Cora and Peter knew she had regained her memories but not that she gained her abilities either.

They walk into the hospital and go towards the elevator when Melissa stops them
"Scott! Scott! What are you doing here? The hospital's evacuating." She says
"We're here for Cora." He says.

"What, all of you? Why does Stiles have my bat?" She asks
"I wondered why that looked familiar." Rayne says looking at the bat
"Mom, just trust me on this-- you need to get out of here, right now." Scott says.

"The building is supposed to be clear in thirty minutes. We've got two ambulances that are coming back-- one's ten minutes out, the other's twenty. Cora needs to be on one of those. They'll be picking up in the basement garage." Melissa says.

"Got it. Okay."

🪐

"You don't have to keep me on a leash, Derek. I'm going to help." Jennifer says as they go into the elevator and she turns to see Scott and Rayne and she turns her head again to see Stiles and the elevator doors open.

"Derek?" Scott says and they all look down to see black spots on the floor and then fighting when the doors flung open and Peter slides on the floor to Derek's feet
"We got a problem. Big problem." He says looking up to see the alpha twins and they all start to fight.

"Stiles." Rayne says and points to Cora on the floor
"Help me." Stiles says to Peter and the three of them rush to Cora
"Ethan, Aiden-- stop! You don't know what you're doing!" Scott shouts.

"All we want is her!" They say and they all turn to see Jennifer escaping in the elevator.

🪐

They all run into another room
"Don't stop! Don't stop!" Derek says and Stiles stops and he goes behind the door and as soon as the twins come in he hits them on the head with the bat that breaks into pieces
"Oh you dumb fuck!" Rayne shouts as Scott hits the light, slamming it into their face.

🪐

"Where's the big guy?" Stiles asks as they rush into another room
"He's close." Derek says
"What about Miss Blake?" He then asks and no one says anything.

"What do you mean? What does that mean? Like she's gone? Scott, are you kidding me?" Stiles asks raising his voice
"Shh! Quiet!" Derek says and Stiles gets close to Derek's face.

"Me, be quiet??? Me? Huh? Are you telling me what to do now? When your psychotic, mass-murdering girlfriend-- the second one you've dated, by the way-- has got my dad somewhere, tied up, waiting to be ritually sacrificed?" He rants.

"Stiles, they're still out there." Scott says
"And... And they want her, right? Which means now, we don't have her either, so my dad and Cora are both dead." Stiles says
"Not yet. Is she really dying?" Scott asks.

"She's definitely not getting any better." Peter says
"There has to be something that we can do. We have to help her-"
"You can't. Only I can." Jennifer says walking into the room.

"I can save her, and I can tell you where Sheriff Stilinski is. But, there's a pack of Alphas in this hospital who want me dead. So, I'll help you-- but only when I'm out of here and safe. Only then." She says.

"Derek, wait!" Scott says stopping Derek as he lunges at her
"She was trying to get out!" He says
"I was trying to keep from getting killed! You can't blame me for that." She says.

"If you want to show you're one of the good guys, then heal her." Rayne says
"Not until I'm safe." She insists
"I'd like to volunteer a different method of persuasion... Let's torture her." Peter says.

"Works for me." Rayne and Derek answer
"But first I have a question... So if I had sex with my girlfriend do I still have to tell my kinda boyfriend I am a virgin?" She asks
"Rayne, she kills people, she isn't a sex therapist." Stiles says and she shrugs.

"I will never understand you." Scott says.

"Um, can I have your attention...? Mr. Deucalion... Excuse me, just Deucalion... requests you bring the woman calling herself Jennifer Blake to the ER reception. Do this, and everyone else can leave. You have ten minutes." Melissa says over the PA.

"He's not gonna hurt her." Jennifer says
"Shut up!" Derek shouts
"He won't!" She shouts back.

"Scott, you know why. Tell them it's true." Jennifer says
"What does she mean?" Derek asks
"You're not the only one he wants in his pack." She says.

"Deucalion doesn't just want an Alpha Pack-- he wants perfection. That means adding the rarest of Alphas to his ranks." Jennifer says
"A True Alpha." Peter realises.

"What's that?" Stiles asks
"The kind that doesn't have to steal his power from another. One that can rise by the force of his own will. Our little Scott." He says.

"It's not just Scott he wants as well." Jennifer says and they all turn to her
"Rayne. Or should I say Acalia. Have you told them what you really are? Who your real father is?" She says walking towards her and brushing a strands of hair out of her face.

"Have you told who's blood runs through your veins? Who you had to kill-" Jennifer gets stopped mid sentence by Rayne holding her wrist while digging her claws into them
"Stop." She says as her eyes glow
"She killed Ennis, Deucalion wanted his daughter to witness all of this as she witnessed try to make peace." Jennifer says.

"Rayne, is it true? You killed Ennis? You're Decaulion's daughter." Scott says and she nods
"You should have told us." He says and she releases Jennifer and turns to him.

"And what was I supposed to say! By the way my father is a mass murder and I got my memories taken by Talia Hale when I was 8 years old because everyone was scarred I was going be killed by Gerard. Is that what you wanted to hear Scott!" She shouts

"I had to kill someone Scott. I didn't want to. As soon as I remembered, my claws were slashing Ennis' neck and I had to train. I wanted to tell you but I was too busy getting my head wrapped around that I am fucking adopted!" She continues and sighs.

"Okay, we'll talk about it later. We still need to get her out of here." Scott says
"Scott, your mom-" Stiles says
"My mom said there's one more ambulance coming in twenty minutes. And I don't think we've been here that long, so, if we can get down to the garage, get to the last ambulance, we can get out of here." Scott cuts him off.

"The twins aren't gonna let us just walk out." Peter says
"I'll distract them." He says
"You mean fight them." Derek says.

"Whatever I have to do." Scott says
"I'll help you." Derek nods
"Um, sorry, but I'm not going anywhere without you, Derek." Jennifer objects.

"I'll do it. But, I'd prefer to be out there with an advantage." Peter says
"An advantage? Like what? You mean, like, a weapon?" Stiles asks
"Something better than a baseball bat." He says and they try to find a weapon of some sorts.

"Hey, wait, what about these?" Stiles says holding up paddles
"Do you know how to use those?" Derek says
"Well, no..." He says.

"Put 'em down."
"I know how to use them." Rayne says
"No you don't." Derek says.

"Epinephrine?" Scott says
"That's only gonna make him stronger." Derek says
"How strong?" Peter asks.

"Let's find out." Rayne says taking it and stabbing Peter's chest
"You really have some pent up anger, don't you?" He says
"That's what you get for leaving me in the distillery." She smiles.

🪐

"It's still here!" Stiles says as they run towards the ambulance and put her in on the bed
"Derek...? Over here." Jennifer says ands Stiles goes to step out of the ambulance when Rayne stops him
"I smell blood." She mouths and they both shut the door quietly.

"Julia.... It is you." Rayne hears Kali say
"You can't beat her on your own." Jennifer says
"That's why we're gonna run." Derek says and they run.

"Okay, okay, okay... We're okay. We're all right. You okay? How you doing?" Stiles asks Cora
"Wh... Why do you look like you're not breathing?" He says
"Because she's not." Rayne says and they begin to panic.

"Oh, no. Oh, God, oh, no, no, no. Why are you not breathing? Come on!"
"Okay, okay, okay. You can do this. Here we go..." Rayne says
"Tilt the head... Fingers on the chin... Clear the throat..." Stiles says.

"Great, nothing-- I see nothing. Okay. All right, so, uh.... just pinch the nose and blow. Oh, come on, Cora. Come on, Cora..." He says and gives her mouth to mouth
"Come on..."
"Oh, come on, Cora. Come on, breathe." He says continuing it and checking to see if she breathes.

"Come on, Cora, breathe! Oh!" He says as Cora gasps
"You know... next time I put my lips to your mouth, you better be awake." He says and looks up at Rayne who gives him a look.

"Shut up."
"I didn't say anything."
"I know that look." He says and looks down at Cora.

"You just hold on a little longer, okay? Trust me, if anyone's gonna get us out of this, it's Scott. I can't believe I just said that. You know, I actually used to be the one with the plan... Well, or, at least a plan B." Stiles says.

"Now? I don't know... Now, I'm thinking, maybe you were right. You know, maybe we are pretty much useless. Maybe all we really do is show up and find the bodies. I don't want to find my father's body." He says and Rayne looks up at him.

"You know, you're a lot easier to talk to when you're completely unconscious." He says to Cora and then they both hear something and they look out the window to see the twins and Stiles lean back into his seats as Rayne lowers herself in her
"It'll be okay, Stiles. This is our dad we are talking about. He is fearless, he's probably very confused right now." She says and he chuckles.

Rayne and Stiles both hear footsteps Stiles presses his ear on the wall as Rayne tries to focus on the sound and they look out the window to see Scott with Peter
"Stiles! Rayne, open the door!" Scott says.

"Sorry." He says opening the door
"Help me get him in." Scott says and Rayne and Stiles help him
"Where's Derek and Jennifer?" She asks.

"I have to go back for them, and my mom." Scott says
"Okay, two problems-- Kali's got the keys to this thing, and we just saw the twins, like, thirty seconds ago." Stiles says and they hear a loud noise
"Stay here." He says.

"Screw it. I'm going." Rayne says jumping out of the ambulance.

🪐

Scott and Rayne walk down a dark hall as they sense something and the merged twins run out of a room and try to punch Scott and then grab him and slam him into walls and shelves and pin him against the wall while holding Rayne.

"Where is she? We're trying not to hurt you!" They shout
"Try... Harder..." Scott gasps for air
"Hey! I'd like to try something." Melissa says and electrocutes them and they drop to the floor as well as Scott and Rayne.

"Sweethearts, get up! Come on!" She says holding out her hands as they both take it and run.

🪐

"He just let me go. Said it was a 'gesture of goodwill.' No other reason." Melissa says
"He had to have a reason-- I don't think he does anything without a reason." Scott says
"Well, if that means I should continue to be profoundly terrified, then don't worry about it! I got that covered." She says and Rayne rubs her back.

Suddenly they hear a gun click and they walk to closer and closer to the corner until they see Argent aiming a gun at them with Allison and Isaac
"Is that a Swiss Army Knife?" Isaac asks looking at Rayne as she folds it back up and puts it in her pocket.

"Maybe."

🪐

"So, they're essentially trapped?" Argent asks as they walk and stand around a table
"Yeah. Right." Scott confirms
"There's no way of getting them out without turning the power back on." Isaac says.

"But wait, wait, wait-- if the power's back on, they're gonna hear the elevator moving, right?" Melissa asks
"And they'll be on Jennifer and Derek as soon as it stops." Rayne says.
"We can't get in a fight with them." Scott says.

"You've got us now." Argent says
"It's too much to risk. They want her dead, and if she dies, there's nothing we can do for Rayne and Stiles' dad or Cora." Scott says
"I don't even think I know which teacher this is." He says.

"She's-she's the one with the brown hair? She's kind of hot?" Isaac says and they all turn to him
"No, it's ju-just an observation..." He says
"I've got an idea." Allison says.

"Isaac if that's your type you're as blind as my father." Rayne says
"Rayne your dad's not blind." Isaac reminds
"No I mean Deucalion and before you say anything, he's my father I'm allowed to say shit like that." She says and they all look at her except Scott.

"He's your what?"

🪐

The lights turn on and Rayne and Scott run to elevator to see Derek unconscious then they look up to see the service shaft open
"Scott..."
"My mom." He says and they run up the stairs.

They run up to the roof to see no one there
"Mom!" Scott shouts
"Melissa!" Rayne shouts.

"They're gone... Guardians, Scott. If you were with me, I could've told you what it meant. I could've warned you." Deucalion says
"Let me help you, Scott, Acalia-- let's help each other. You both help me catch her, and I'll help both of you get your mother and your father back." He says and they walk towards him.

"Scott! Rayne, don't do this! Don't go with him!" Stiles says
"I don't know what else to do." Scott says
"No, there's g-- Scott, there's gotta be something else, okay? We always-we always have a plan B." He says.

"Not this time..." Scott says with tears in his eyes
"Rayne..." Stiles says looking at his sister
"I'm gonna find our dad. I promise." Rayne says with tears in her eyes.

"Scott! Rayne!"
