IT WAS A LATE NIGHT IN THE LOFT, AND DEREK WAS STILL AWAKE. When the alarm went off and woke Isabella up on alert. Grabbing the gun off the coffee table, Derek surveyed the lower loft while Isabella surveyed the top.

Finding it was all clear, Isabella silently headed to the door, when she saw the shadow of feet on the outside. Looking at Derek she nodded her head towards the door.

With his gun held high, Derek walked up closer to the door. Counting down quietly Derek opened the door and pointed his gun to the person on the other side.

But they were both met with a soaked Lydia, who looked up slowly and wailed.

☁︎︎

After an eventful night, both Isabella and Derek didn't really get much sleep. As it hit the next day, bright and early Scott McCall was at Derek's loft returning the money from the deadpool.

"Okay," Derek said, as Scott passed him the duffle bag full of money.

"Don't you wanna know why it took so long to return it." Scott asked.

"How much do you make at the animal clinic?" Derek questioned.

"Minimum wage."Scott answered.

"That's why, everyone can be tempted, Scott. Even a True Alpha."

"You're not angry?"

"It's not even mine, it belongs to Peter."

"And that's why I say Scott, you should have never returned it. I don't know this Peter fellow, but I do know that he probably got all of his other money back so why would he miss a few grand." Isabella pointed out, as she was playing around with her butterfly knife.

"Hell, even my younger self most likely ran off with the money, but you didn't and that's what makes you a good kid." she praised.

Scott sheepishly smiled at the woman. Getting curious, Scott asked, "Where's your money?"

"You're standing on it." he stated.

Scott looked down to the ground and looked back up shocked "There's another vault?"

That was all it took for Isabella to burst out laughing. Trying to ignore her laughs so he didn't laugh himself, Derek corrected Scott "No, I own the building."

In between laughs Isabella managed to say "He's like a puppy, he came along slowly but surely."

Calming herself down, Isabella then turned to Derek "I mean this in the most offensive way Derek, but putting all of your money into a building is not a great idea."

"You didn't let me finish, I also have my own bank accounts. Basically all the money from the vault was Peter's."

"Huh, another thing we have in common Derek, we both inherited money and never had to work a day in our lives." Isabella was exhilarated, on the new found information.

Derek lowly laughed at the girl, knowing how she normally spoke and was not hurt by what she said.

Continuing the conversation with Scott, "I think we'd actually be better off if the rest never came back."

"Wait the rest never went back, wow that sucks for Peter. Hold on, wait a minute we never figured out who added 55 million for me to be killed, because if its still floating around I would actually like that money, so I could give it to Scott for being a good alpha." Isabella said, smiling at the young boy, which made him smile back at the woman.

Seeing as she wasn't trying to kill his best friend, he could actually see why Derek liked her.

Derek noticed Scott was still standing in his loft not leaving. "I know Lydia was here last night." Scott stated. "Well they do say three is a party." Isabella said, trying to ease the vibe in the loft.

"Deaton's still working on figuring out what Kate did to you. If anyone can find an answer, it's him." Scott continued to say.

Derek just nodded his head at the information.

"One more thing, do you think I could borrow your loft for my date with Kira?" he asked.

"It's your first date with her isn't it." Isabella guessed. "How did yo–" Scott was about to ask when he was interrupted by Isabella. "When you talk about her you get all sweet and mushy, but now it's also mixed in with a hint of nervousness." she stated.

While Isabella was looking at Scott while talking, she missed the look Derek gave her when she brought up how Scott acted when he mentioned his girlfriend's name.

Not only was Derek happy being friends with Isabella, but he also didn't mind it in the future if they were to ever be something more. Because to tell the truth he liked the girl a lot.

Noticing Isabella was finished talking to Scott, Derek replied with a "Yes, you can have your date here just make sure you clean up afterwards." Which Scott agreed to.

So Isabella and Derek got ready to leave the loft for the day.

☁︎︎

On his date with Kira in Derek's loft, Scott McCall and Kira Yukimura were getting frisky with each other when Kate Argent decided to ambush their first date with each other.

Crashing in through the big window, Kate brought a Berserker to help move things along and kidnap Scott McCall.

On the other side of town in some underground tunnels Chris Argent was looking for his sister in her old house when he was met with Peter Hale just standing there.

Asking him a series of questions, all Chris got out of Peter was "I followed the smell."

Then when Chris wasn't looking Peter stabbed him with a metal rod through the abdomen going into the wall behind him then bending the poll so he couldn't get loose, or mess up his plan that he had with Kate, which was to kill Scott McCall.

☁︎︎

While everyone else was busy with their own things, what were Isabella and Derek doing?

They were playing basketball against each other.

As soon as she found out he was a basketball star when he was in high school she immediately challenged him to a game of one on one.

He also learned that she did track when she was in highschool but neither of them felt like running now.

So they were at the basketball court going against each other and surprisingly they were tied.

"Seeing as it's getting dark and I think Kira and Scott's date is almost over, whoever makes this last basket gets to take the title of being the best basketball player in Beacon Hills." Isabella challenged.

"I'm fine with that, but Peter might beg to differ since he was the basketball captain, back in his day."

"I haven't seen him now but that old fossil ain't got nothing on me. So if he were here right now I'd tell him to bring it." and with that Isabella dribbled around Derek and made the final basket.

"Nothing but net." she said, throwing her hands up in the air.

"That's not fair, I want a rematch." he bellowed.

"Sorry not sorry Derek, just admit it you got rusty it's okay 16 year old you is still at his prime." she joked.

He rolled his eyes, and then they both started walking towards his truck to go back to the loft.

☁︎︎

Laughing on their way up to the loft, they were met with an open door.

Being cautious they entered the room to see it was trashed, "Yikes looks like my 18th birthday party only a little less trashed."

"Jokes now, really?"

"Oh yeah, definitely I'm just trying to soften the blow of your loft being trashed." she respond.

A minute later, Stiles and Noah entered.

"What the hell happened?" Stiles asked.

"It was supposed to be a date." Derek said.

"Looks like it didn't end that well." Isabella commented.

"They were both here?" Noah questioned.

"And they're both gone." she said.

As Stiles got a phone call, Isabella got a feeling. So following her instincts she closed her eyes and opened them back up as they were now shifted to a void cold black.

Her mind traveled far, she saw sand that looked like a desert. Then her mind brought her to what looked like a church only it needed to be remodeled extremely bad.

Inside the church underground she saw bones, and a girl banging on the walls around yelling Scott's name.

It didn't take her long to realize it was Kira. Seeing if she could push further she looked around and saw some Berserkers standing guard around a blonde woman.

But that was all she got when she was pushed back into her own head space. Closing her eyes again she opened them back up to her regular green colored ones.

Stiles had just gotten off the phone with Lydia and Deaton and was about to tell them where Scott and Kira were when Isabella did first.

"Mexico, Scott and Kira are in Mexico in some kind of church." she blurted out, just finding the information out herself.

"Astral dimension?" Derek asked her. And she just nodded her head yes.

Now finding out the information everybody Stiles and Noah left to go find more information, while Isabella helped Derek finish cleaning his loft to a respectable amount then headed to bed knowing tomorrow was going to be a long day.
