CASSIDY WALKED BACK INTO THE WOLVES HOUSE. she had gotten up early to go to class and since she was all done she decided to come back. she made her schedule this year all early morning classes so she'd have the rest of the day free and she was very glad she did that.

when she made it fully in she waved at the three wolves who where in their living room. hamish looked at cassidy from the bar and held out a drink.

she smiled and quickly grabbed it, "oh thank you!" cassidy took a sip and looked at hamish wide eyed from how good the drink was.

"damn dude this is the shit." hamish laughed out a thank you to the girl before she went and sat on the couch. randall smiled at her as he tied his shoe.

suddenly jack walked in, "i know who's preforming this magic." randall stood up, "gabrielle dupres and brandon carothers."

"how did you-"

"i saw you talking to them dude, and they both got into the order. do you really think i wouldn't figure that out?" asked randall as lilith walked down the stairs, "yeah, thanks for the heads-up."

cassidy stood up when randall grabbed her hand to bring her with the other wolves. jack stepped back, "you can't kill them." lilith looked at him, "we can if we hurry."

"look, just let me talk to them first. you at least owe me that much." that set something off in hamish because the next thing cassidy knew, hamish slammed jack into the wall and had his hand around jacks neck.

it shocked cassidy and she quickly squeezed randall's hand. he smiled a bit before squeezing her hand back in comfort.

"everything bad that has happened up until now is because you haven't listened to a word we've said. we don't owe you anything. you understand?" questioned hamish as he continued to cut the air from jacks lungs.

"yes." breathed out jack before hamish let his neck go. jack looked around, "we can stop the magic. without killing anyone."

"how?" wondered hamish making jack explain, "i didn't eat clarke's heart when i killed him. so the magic targeting benson, it kept going. it found a new path to her."

"the person driving the car." realized randall making jack nod, "exactly. but the magic started to wear out. it wasn't... it was less effective, that's why benson wasn't killed."

randall looked at jack happily, "we can wear a spell down, render it harmless." hamish turned his glare to randall, "i heard him."

"that's great, when we know the target." snapped lilith making jack look her way, "i can find out. just let me talk to gabrielle and brandon. this will work."

"says the expert." responded lilith and jack looked her right in the eyes, "of it doesn't... go ahead and kill me."

"sounds fair to me."

randall looked down at cassidy a bit worried and she smiled at him reassuringly and squeezed his hand.

"all right, jack. what's your plan?"

JACK HAD GOTTEN HIS ANSWER FROM GABRIELLE AND BRANDON WITH THE HELP OF HAMISH. the group found out the target was still benson so they quickly headed to her house.

"look, bensons colleagues tweeted about a welcome home party." explained jack making randall laugh a bit, "wow, jack. stalk much?"

cassidy sighed, "you're testing the waters of creeps vil morton."

"i thought knowing the target was suppose to make our lives easier." complained lilith. hamish looked at jack, "how do we know who we're looking for?"

"you'll know."

cassidys face morphed into one of confusion, "that's not very helpful." randall looked around, "guys, chill. english teachers over there. knights and cassidy on a mission out here. we got this."

everyone looked over at benson to see her opening her from door for guests, with a bright pink leg cast on.

jack looked towards a man holding a gun and pointed, "oh. here we go." hamish looked at the man, "he's mine."

"i call dibs on next one." called lilith. hamish turned into his wolf self and jack shouted, "no killing."

the wolves began taking people out of their murder trance when cassidy noticed a man walking towards bensons house with a chainsaw.

"where the hell did he get a chainsaw?" wondered cassidy to herself as she thought of a spell to use. she remember one that needed no sacrifice so she quickly mumbled it out, "dormitum dimittatur." the man she was watching quickly fell to the floor, asleep.

cassidy smiled to herself in success and looked over at randall, who smiled at her, and gave him a thumbs up.

IT HAD BEEN AN HOUR AND THE GROUP WAS STILL FIGHTING. "jack, it's been an hour! the magic's got to be dead by now." complained randall as cassidy used his side as a beam to put her weight on.

"yeah. i think we're good." replied jack before a car came speeding towards him. "or not." mumbled jack as he started the car down. it stopped for a second and jack cussed out, "oh, shit."

the car started back up again going straight for jack. "come on, silverback. come on, silverback. come on, silverback!" pumped jack and right before the car hit him, he switched into wolf form and slammed his arm down denting the car.

with all the noise, adults from the party quickly walked out. jack looked over at professor benson, realizing he didn't have any clothes on, and shouted, "i love you, professor benson! i love you!"

he quickly ran off towards the others, leaving benson speechless.

cassidy laughed, "at least you admitted it morton!" jack laughed sarcastically at her before they all began walking back to the wolf house.

ALL THE WOLVES HAD DECIDED TO PUT ROBES ON. cassidy, being the only one who kept their clothes on during the fight, chose to keep hers on.

"doesn't have to be perfect, just booze." marked randall as he decided to sit on the beanbag chair cassidy was on, slightly sitting on her in the process.

she slapped his shoulder to get him to move only making randall laugh. lilith looked at hamish, "seriously, grandpa."

hamish handed lilith and randall each a drink, "neanderthals." he went back over and grabbed two more before handing one to cassidy, "sleep speller." cassidy smiled gratefully before hamish turned to jack, "jack."

cassidy turned to randall, "why does he get to keep his name?" randall shrugged in response while jack spoke up, "i kind of get why we need these now. it's hard work."

"it also used to be fun." remarked lilith making cassidy laugh at how violent lilith was. "jack killed a car. that was fun." smiled randall before continuing, "and you were right. eventually the magic petered out."

"it was a pretty long eventually." reminded lilith and hamish looked at her, "we saved ten people. feels good."

"saving people's okay, i guess." sighed lilith. cassidy smiled, "and jack finally confessed his love to benson! glorious day for all."

"nothing is going to change the fact that i murdered a good man. you know, what do you do with all the bad shit you have to carry around?" wondered jack.

hamish looked him right in the eyes, "you carry it. it's called being an adult." hamish lifted his drink up as a toast making everyone do the same before they all took a sip.

CASSIDY WALKED NEXT TO LILITH AND HAMISH ON THEIR WAY TO HELP JACK. they all where able to tell that he'd be at the place he killed his teacher so they wanted to help.

cassidy looked ahead to see jack talking to himself before putting his shovel into the ground. randall came up behind him and began helping too.

"how did you find me?" wondered jack as he looked at randall. "have you learned nothing? we smelled that corpse from a mile off." stated lilith as hamish, herself, and cassidy made themselves visible to jack.

jack looked around, "you're not thinking of eating my ethics professor?" randall laughed, "relax. no ones gonna horn in on your action. but... if you want to share-"

"no one is eating my ethics professor!"

"-guys, come on. of course not. but if you change your mind." finished randall as he took a step to stand by cassidy.

"we talked. we think your idea of an alliance could still work." smiled hamish and jack stood there for a second.

"no."

cassidy looked at jack shocked, "i didn't think you'd say that."

"no alliance." continued jack and all the wolves looked at each other while cassidy looked at jack like he was an idiot.

"i give my life to the cause." finished jack making cassidys eyes go big while randall laughed and went up to hug jack.

randall and jack than began digging up the grave again, unified.
