"No, but Danny seriously next time I go to France you have to come with me! You would love it!" Ellie exclaims with a smile as Danny laughs 

"Definitely," Danny tells Ellie as they walk through the school hallways talking about France.

"Ellie. Have I told you how hot you look? Like I wish I wasn't gay seeing you," Danny says spinning around the girl who chuckles at him as Danny looks at her outfit which consists of a copper top with long sleeves that were unbuttoned as well as a pair of polka dot pants.

"A few buttons need to button and you need a longer shirt," Chris tells Ellie who smiles at him innocently. 

"Well thank you, Danny," Ellie tells him when he'd phone suddenly starts going off making Ellie look to see Lydia texting her.

Lyds 🍓❤️
Meet us in the empty classroom beside
Coach's office. It's important

Ellie looks confused and worried before turning to Danny.

"I got to go but we will talk soon Danny. Especially about our trip to France. It had the best gay bars and really cute gay guys," Ellie tells him kissing his cheek as she walks away making Danny laugh at her as he nods his head.

"Danny would love France," Ellie says nodding to herself

Ellie walks into the empty classroom with her darker and longer hair now curled with light makeup on but enough to make her green eyes stand out.

"Sorry I'm late was talking to Danny," Ellie tells them with a chuckle as everyone smiles and winces slightly at her making Ellie confuse before she spots Derek.

"Oh. Oh!" Stiles yells wide-eyed at the awkwardness as Ellie and Derek glare at him.

Both Derek and Ellie freeze looking at each other as everyone looks between the two of them.

"Maybe we shouldn't have told her to come," Lydia whispers to Allison who nods wincing slightly.

"Uhm hi," Ellie tells Derek with a soft smile as Derek looks at her.

"Hey," Derek tells her as the two both look at each other.

"Your hair is darker and longer," Derek states as Ellie chuckles nervously and looks down at her hair.

"Wow point out the obvious don't you," Cora says chuckling at her brother who glares at her.

"Yeah needed a change. Uhm you grew your beard out," Ellie states as Derek nods rubbing his hand over his beard.

"Yeah just felt like growing it out," Derek says nodding his head and looking at Ellie.

"This is so awkward," Lydia whispers to Allison who nods her head.

"How have you been?" Derek asks Ellie who bites her lower lip slightly making Derek's eyes look down at it.

"Uhm good. Good as I can be. You?" Ellie asks as she twists her rings making Derek nod looking at her.

"Good," Derek tells her as the two just nod at each other.

"Good," Ellie tells him as they just stare at each other.

"Awkward," Stiles mumbles making the two glare at him as Stiles smiles sheepishly.

"Very!" Everyone exclaims beside Ellie and Derek who were avoiding eye contact.

"Uhm why am I?" Ellie asks looking toward Lydia and Allison.

"Some girl was trying to find Scott and left this bruise on our wrists. It's some type of symbol," Allison says making Ellie look at them worriedly as she rushes towards them.

Ellie grabs their wrists and holds their arms together, forming the complete symbol on their skin.

"Why didn't you two tell me about this?" Ellie asks them both worried and angry at whoever did this.

Lydia and Allison share a look as the two werewolves and Stiles look at them surprised. They thought the first person the two would tell would be Ellie.

"You should have!" Ellie tells them with a pointed look.

"Well after the bird incident and that cut on your arm I didn't want to bother you," Allison says shrugging as Ellie sighs.

"Wait what bird accident and cut?" Derek asks worriedly walking towards Ellie who sighs shaking her head.

"Aww still so protective and concerned," Cora tells her brother twisting his cheek who glares at her. 

"I'm fine. It's nothing," Ellie tells him waving off his concern as she looks toward Allison and Lydia.

"That was rude but funny," Allison says chuckling.

"Who was it?" Ellie asks kindly making the two look at her worriedly.

"Yeah, I wouldn't answer that. That is her "I'm about to kill someone" voice and smile," Stiles says making Ellie turn to him with a glare.

"Would you like for me to kill you instead?" Ellie asks Stiles who raises his hand in surrender.

"Hey! I was just trying to warn them," Stiles says making Ellie thumb his forehead.

Ellie rolls her eyes before looking back at Allison and Lydia's wrists with a confused look.

"What is it?" Scott asks seeing her look making everyone turn to Ellie well beside Derek who was already staring at her.

"Creep," Cora tells her brother who sighs at her.

"This is definitely not a normal bruise. It wouldn't form like this and I could have sworn I've seen this odd symbol before," Ellie states as she rubs the bruise carefully making sure not to hurt the two.

"Where?" Stiles asks Ellie who scoffs at him.

"If I remembered I would tell you," Ellie states as the bell rings.

"I'll figure it just give me a few minutes," Ellie says as she grabs the bag she dropped and turns around spotting Derek who was just looking at her closely.

"Uhm it was nice to see you, Derek," Ellie says softly as she nods her head.

Derek looks at her and everything was telling the two just to walk closer and just hold the other.

"Do it!" Lydia and Allison yell wanting it to happen.

But neither did.

"Ugh! I'm about to hit both of them," Lydia says angrily as she huffs.

"You too," Derek tells her as Ellie begins to leave with Allison and Lydia following.

Derek watches her go with an emotionless look but his eyes told a different story.

He wanted to race after her but knew he couldn't.

"Yes, you can! And you should!" Issac yells making everyone look at the boy who just tries to hide.

"If you don't stop looking at her like that you will be considered creeper than I thought," Stiles states making Derek glare at him before storming out of the room.

Scott and Stiles look at each other as Stiles sighs looking exhausted.

"That was so much more awkward than I thought it would," Stiles states as Scott nods agreeing with him before heading towards class.

"Well you put two exes who neither thought they would see together in a room together with all of you me," Liam says shrugging as Ellie chuckles at him nodding her head.

━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━

In economics class a book hits the teacher's desk, shaking the attention of the class. Coach looks at the students with his standard disdain for them.

"The stock market is based on two principles. What are they?" Coach asks as Ellie looks down at her books stuck in her own head and Scott raises his hand.

"Yes, McCall, you can go to the bathroom," Coach says waving off Scott as Ellie looks up with an amused expression.

Ellie chuckles at that as Melissa shakes her head at her son. 

"Uh, no, Coach-- I know the answer," Scott tells him as Coach starts laughing making Scott look at him in offense as Ellie shakes her head.

"Really?!" Ellie gasped looking at Scott wide-eyed who looks at her offended.

"Oh, you're serious," Coach tells him after a moment seeing Scott's face as Ellie begins to laugh.

"Yes. Risk and reward," Scott answers as Coach looks at him in surprise.

"Wow! Who are you? And what have you done with McCall?" Coach asks in shock before smiling.

"Don't answer that! I like you better! I like you better!" Coach exclaims as Scott smiles and laughs making Ellie shake her head. 

"Does anyone have a room? A quarter," Coach asks as Ellie shrugs not looking. 

"A quarter...yep," Stiles says as he begins to dig in his pocket. He takes out a quarter, but along with the quarter, something else came out.

Ellie looks down to see an XXL condom on the floor next to her chair making her laugh as everyone went silent and looked at Stiles, who was hit in red.

Stiles looks wide-eyed as Ellie begins to laugh so hard she falls down making her laugh even harder.

Everyone either looks wide-eyed or laughs as Stiles just wanted to hide.

"Oh. Oh!" Ellie exclaims laughing even harder as Stiles glares at her. Coach then approaches Stiles and bends down picking up the condom.

"Stilinski, I think you, uh...You dropped this," Coach says placing the condom on Stiles's desk as Ellie laughs even harder.

"And congratulations!" Coach says as Ellie begins to fall out of her chair laughing so hard as Coach turns to the rest of the class.

"Oh! This! This is everything!" Ellie says laughing even harder as Stiles glares at her and Stilinski sighs shaking his head.

Stiles looks at Scott, who looks at him with a proud smile, while Ellie just continues to laugh. Coach returns to his desk and takes his cup out that reads "coach rules" and puts it on the floor.

Taking a few steps back bounces the quarter right into the cup making Ellie look at him in surprise.

"Risk and reward. Put the fourth in the cup and you will win the reward. Okay. Danny. Risk, reward," Coach says as he puts the quarter on Danny's desk.

"What's the reward?" Danny asks him as Ellie nods wanting to know as well.

"You don't have to do the pop quiz tomorrow," Coach tells him as Ellie just shrugs that was a good reward.

"Coach, it's not a pop quiz if you tell us," Danny tells him as Coach shakes his head. 

"Danny, you know, I really expect more from you right now. Seriously," Coach says impatiently as Ellie nods agreeing with him giving Danny a disappointed look who smiles at her.

"Ellie. Risk, reward. The risk: if you don't put that room in the cup, you have to do the pop... the... the quiz. And... and you have to write an essay. Risk, more work. Reward... There is no work at all. Or choose not to play," Coach asks the older Argent twin who nods.

"Hell yes, coach!" Ellie exclaims as she grabs the quarter.

"See this. This is why she's my favorite!" Coach exclaims as Ellie walks towards the front and aligns for her shot.

"Yes! I got this," Ellie says watching closely.

"And in the goes the quarter," Ellie says as she tosses the quarter and it lands in the cup.

"Yes!" Ellie yells as she throws her arms up in the air making everyone laugh as they applauded.

"Yes!" Ellie says proud of herself.

As Ellie celebrates not having to do the pop quiz she doesn't even realize that the classroom door opens.

"Stiles," Sheriff Stilinski says making everyone turn to see Sheriff Stilinski along with another deputy waiting for Stiles at the door.

Ellie looks at Stiles worriedly as he stands up and follows his dad out of the classroom. Ellie turns to Scott both worried.

"Please don't get arrested," Ellie tells Stiles who pats her head making Ellie glare at him.

━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━

After class Ellie had a free period and was sitting with Allison and Lydia in the library.

"So...," Allison trails off looking at Ellie across the table making Ellie look up to see both girls looking at her.

"What?" Ellie asks them confused as Lydia rolls her eyes.

"Are you okay after the whole Derek thing?" Allison asks her making Ellie shrug her shoulders.

"I'm fine," Ellie tells them ending the conversation as she looks at her computer.

"Yeah sure," Lydia says slowly making Ellie roll her eyes at her.

Lydia and Allison share a look but don't say anything going back to what they were doing.

"I want one," Lydia says suddenly making Allison and Ellie look at her before looking toward where Lydia was looking at. The two new twins.

"Which one?" Allison asks her making Ellie and Lydia both look at Allison at the same time.

"The straight one, obviously," Lydia says before pouting.

"But I don't know how to get his attention," Lydia says making Ellie pause before smirking.

"I don't like that smirk," Chris mutters worriedly.

"I know a way. Just trust me," Ellie says leaning closer to Lydia who looks at her confused before Ellie places her lips on Lydia's as Allison looks wide-eyed.

Lydia pauses in surprise before she begins to kiss Ellie back.

Stiles Scott Liam Issac and Derek look at the screen wide-eyed and in disbelief. Chris shrugs at the screen it was better than Derek. While Laura just looks at the screen enraged. That was fair.

Ellie and Lydia were chuckling at the looks as they shrugged.

Ellie pulls back slowly as Lydia just had her eyes close in a daze Ellie shrugs and begins getting up ignoring all the looks she was getting.

"Well, that should get his attention. See you lovelies later," Ellie says walking out of the library as Allison and Lydia were processing what was happening.

"I understand why Derek was so in love with her," Lydia whispers making Allison laugh as she shakes her head.

"I am a magical kisser," Ellie says proud of herself as Laura pouts. She should kiss her instead.

━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━

As Ellie was grabbing her books from her locker two thuds were heard beside her making her look to see Stiles and Scott looking at her.

"Uhm hi?" Ellie questions confused as they look at her.

"Do you know a way to make a werewolf remember something?" Stiles asks Ellie who shuts her locker looking at them.

"I know a few yeah," Ellie says nodding her head confused.

"One is with a werewolf going into another mind using its claws, and another is where you lower the subject's heart rate. It's sort of like hypnosis but it is very dangerous and the subject can die. They can die either way or be paralyzed. The last way is I can enter their mind using a spell," Ellie tells them with a shrug as the two look at each other before nodding.

Stiles and Scott then grab Ellie's arms and begins pulling her toward the door.

"Hey! Wait where are we going?!" Ellie asks confused as the two continue pulling her.

"This is kidnapping!" Ellie exclaims as many looks at the trio before going back to their conversation.

"Kidnappers!" Ellie yells glaring at the two boys.

"We need you to help Issac remember what happened," Stiles says making Ellie pull them both to stop as she looks at them.

"What are you talking about? What happened to Isaac?" Ellie asks with a raised eyebrow as Scott and Stiles look at her wide-eyed.

"Uhm well," Scott says before looking at Stiles who looks panicked.

"Someone is about to be in trouble," Stiles whispers to Issac who glares at him.

━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━

"So what are we waiting for?" Issac asks as he looks around the animal clinic where Scott, Stiles, Derek, and Deaton all stood.

"We're waiting on Ellie," Scott tells him as Issac looks at him wide-eyed.

"Wait what?! Did you tell her about me? What happened?" Issac asks making everyone turn to him as Scott points to Stiles who rolls his eyes. 

"Oh no. She's going to kill me," Issac mutters as they hear the bell ring and Ellie walks in with an old-looking book in her arms and a bag on her shoulders.

"Is that your grimoire?" Talia asks Ellie who nods her head.

"What's a grimoire?" Scott asks confused.

"Basically a witches' book of spells. It has all of our spells in them," Ellie tells him shrugging as Scott nods his head.

"Issac Lahey!" Ellie yells as walks towards them making Issac smiles sheepishly at her.

"Ellie you look so pretty. Did you do something new to your hair?" Issac asks as he chuckles nervously and tries to hide behind Derek who just moves to the side.

"Derek protect the poor boy!" Talia tells her son who shakes his head.

"No, because then I will get yelled at," Derek tells his mom who shakes her head at him.

"You got hurt and didn't call me! Why?!" Ellie asks him as she walks closer to Isaac clear worry in her eyes as she begins to look him over.

"Uhm I didn't want to worry you," Issac mutters as Ellie looks at him.

"Liar. The truth now," Ellie demands as Isaac sighs.
"I live with Derek," Issac says as Ellie looks at him confused.

"Yeah, I know this. You told me over the summer and it was my idea," Ellie tells him as Issac sighs shaking his head.

"I knew if I told you, you would come and I didn't want things to be awkward or make you uncomfortable," Issac tells her with a shrug as Ellie's face softens.

"Oh puppy," Ellie says hugging Issac who smiles hugging her back.

"Oh Issac," Ellie tells him as she walks towards him and pulls him into a hug. Isaac hugs her back as Ellie hits him over the head softly not as hard as she does to Scott and Stiles.

"That's not fair!" Stiles and Scott yell as Ellie waves them off.

"Never do that again. If you get hurt let me know and I'll be there. No matter what. No matter how awkward it will be. I am your family and you are mine. If you need me I'm there," Ellie tells him firmly as Issac nods and the two pull back slowly.

Issac smiles at that not used to having someone care about him so much.

"Now let's get started," Ellie tells them laying the book down and putting the bag on the table.

"Pour this in a large triangle," Ellie tells Stiles and Scott holding them each a thing of salt. The two look confused but nod doing it.

Ellie then grabs multiple candles and turns to Isaac.
"Place these around the room," Ellie instructs as Issac nods.

Ellie turns to Derek with a sigh as he looks down at her. Ellie smiles at him softly but awkwardly before looking to see everything set up.

"So do you have a lighter or a match or something?" Isaac asks Ellie who rolls her eyes.

"Incendia," Ellie says as all the candlelight up makes Issac nod.

"Or do that," Issac tells her making Ellie laugh as Deaton turns off the lights.

"That was cool," Liam mutters wide-eyed making Ellie smile as she closes her eyes.

"Papilio Lux," Ellie says as a beautiful golden sparkling butterfly flows away from her hands and towards Liam who just looks at it amazed before it disappears.

"Okay Issac step into the triangle and lay flat on your back," Ellie instructs Issac who nods.

Once he lays down Ellie heads toward him sitting down above his head as Derek comes to stand beside her worriedly.

"Alright, you ready Isaac?" Ellie asks him as he looks at her worriedly.

"I will be with you the entire time," Ellie reassures him as Isaac nods.

"Now close your eyes," Ellie tells him as Issac does so Ellie places her hands over his head and she closes her eyes.

"Pontem Praesidio. Anchora Immortalibus. Per menta mi heava cor anmina. Pontem Praesidio. Anchora Immortalibus," Ellie begins to chant as the candles flicker making Stiles and Scott watch wide-eyed and amazed.

"Tillate ulaz, tillate ulaz, tillate ulaz...," Ellie finishes as she gasps looking around as she stands in Issac's mind.

"That's so weird but cool," Issac mutters making Ellie chuckle as she nods her head.

"I'm in," Ellie tells the group who all look toward her.

Ellie begins to look around seeing she was in some abandoned building. Ellie looks up to see a full moon rising and a voice. Two sounded familiar but she couldn't place them.

Ellie looks to see Isaac stumbling forward as he tries to run but a bigger man grabs him, pulls him back, and drags him down.

A woman who was in serious need of a pedicure steps in smiling at Issac with detached fangs.

"Eww," Ellie and Lydia say disgusted seeing the girls' feet.

The man's arms surround Issac as Isaac turns his head to see a man with a cane standing right outside the open door of a bench vault.

"Deucalion," Talia whispers sadly seeing her old friend.

The man's head raises as listens to Isaac's defenseless struggle. Suddenly, Isaac was dragged into what looked like a supply cabinet.

Isaac turned to look around in panic until his eyes caught something. A person was sitting on the floor, perched against the wall.

"No," Ellie mumbles rushing toward Erica's dead body.

Derek froze at that seeing his dead beta sadly before he looks down. Talia holds her son closely knowing how painful that must have been for him.

Ellie then gasps as she snaps out of her and Issac's eyes fly up before he stands up quickly.

Ellie begins to cough as she looks to see her nose bleeding slightly. She wipes the blood before anyone could see it confused.

Ellie looks confused at that. That wasn't that powerful of a spell she's done even bigger than that before and her nose has never bled.

She's done more powerful spells than that so she didn't understand why this spell drained.

"Hey, you okay?" Ellie hears someone ask making her turn to see Derek's concerned look.

"I'm okay," Ellie tells him as Derek nods looking at Ellie worriedly.

"Derek I'm so sorry," Ellie tells him making Derek confused as he looks at her.

"Erica. She's dead," Ellie tells softly making Derek look at her wide-eyed and in disbelief before his face falls.

"I'm sorry Derek I knew you cared about her," Ellie tells him as she rubs his back.

"They are definitely still in love with each other," Allison tells Lydia who nods her head agreeing.

"Did you figure out where they are?" Stiles asks Ellie who sighs as she nods.

"First National Bank in Beacon Hills. I recognized the symbol on Allison and Lydia because I used to drive by it sometimes," Ellie explain before she sighs.

"There's something else. There was another werewolf. I didn't recognize her but she was trapped with Boyd in a bank vault," Ellie tells them as she looks worried.

"What else?" Derek asks looking towards Ellie and seeing the look on her face.

"If they're locked together on the full moon, they're gonna tear each other apart," Ellie states towards Derek who nods.

"But something doesn't add up. The reason why they would want them to fight each other. I think it's a trap. For you," Ellie says looking toward Derek worriedly.

"Sounds like it," Talia says worriedly looking at her son.

━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━

After explaining what she saw Scott and Stiles leave to research as Ellie heads home. The girl sneaks into her apartment trying not to be caught by her dad.

As she locks the front door the light flips on making her freeze.

"We had an agreement, Ellie," Chris tells her making Ellie sigh as she lays her grimoire down and looks towards her dad.

"They needed my help," Ellie tells her dad who shakes his head at her.

"I love you for your heart Ellie. But it's going to be your downfall," Chris tells his daughter who sighs at that.

"They could have figured it out without you," Chris tells her as Ellie scoffs.

"I have these amazing unique abilities and you don't want me to use them. I can save people and protect them. It's what I'm supposed to do. What I was born to do," Ellie tells her dad who walks closer to her.

"No, you are supposed to live and be a teenager. We almost lost you because you wanted to protect and save people. So no," Chris tells her sternly as he grabs her grimoire.

"And this will no longer be in your possession. If you need to practice you come and tell me. Only then will I give it to you," Chris tells her as Ellie scoffs.

"That isn't fair!" Ellie exclaims angrily.

"The more you stop her the more out of control she will be," Anna tells Chris who sighs at that shaking his head.

He knew how he was doing it. He was doing it out of fear. Not fear of his daughter but fear of what might happen to her.

"This isn't fair!" Ellie exclaims as Chris shrugs his shoulders.

"Life isn't fair sweetheart," Chris tells her walking away making Ellie glare at him as she heads towards her room using her magic to slam her door shut after her.

Once she does she feels something dripping down her nose making her wipe it and see blood.

Chris and Allison look worried at that, especially Chris. That shouldn't happen. Not at all. 

Ellie sighs as she heads towards her bathroom and removes her leather jacket and then the bloody bandage on her arm.

"Damn it," Ellie mutters seeing the cut still not healed.

Everyone looks worried at that either already knowing or figuring out that it should have been completely healed by now.

Sighing Ellie begins to look under her sink for something. Seeing it Ellie pulls out her first aid kit and opens it.

"Please tell me you aren't about to do what I think you are going to do," Chris begs looking at his daughter.

Grabbing a needle and a thread Ellie shuts her bathroom door and takes a deep breath before she begins stitching up her arm biting her lip from screaming out in pain.

"No! What are you doing?! What is wrong with you?!" Stiles yells wide-eyed and disgusted as Melissa looks wide-eyed knowing how painful that was but she admired the girl's ability to do so.

Once done Ellie leans against the counter taking deep breaths before cleaning everything up and then getting the bloody bandages. Taking them towards the trash Ellie hides them at the bottom before heading back to her room.

━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━

Ellie heads towards Derek's loft to talk about palms regarding Erica Boyd and the mystery werewolf dressed in a pair of jeans with a black bralette and a cardigan over it.

"You are definitely trying to get under Derek's skin," Laura says chuckling as Ellie shrugs.

"Or I just feel hot and want to show it," Ellie tells her. 

As she went to the door she pauses not opening it remembering all the times she was her before. But especially the last time she was.

For the last time she was here she left a piece of her heart.

"That's sad," Lydia mutters sadly.

The door was suddenly open and there stood Peter with a smirk making Ellie roll her eyes at him.

"And the sadness turns to annoyance," Ellie says rolling her eyes at the screen.

"There's the girl we were waiting for!" Peter exclaims making Ellie glare at him.

"Do you want me to kill you again?" Ellie asks Peter as she walks by him hitting his shoulder with hers annoyed.

"You know you seem more bitchy than the last time I saw you," Peter tells Ellie who glares at him.

"And you seem more alive than I left you," Ellie tells him with a forced smile. Ellie looks toward Derek Scott and Stiles walking towards them.

"That was a good one," Stiles says nodding his head at Ellie who smiles at him.

"Sorry I'm late," Ellie tells them as she walks towards the table that had the map of the bank on.

Stiles sees her slap her good arm making Ellie look at him offended.

"What did I do?!" Ellie yells at Stiles who throws his hand up in the air.

"You kissed Lydia," Stiles says making everyone look at the girl with different expressions on their face.

"Derek is definitely angry and jealous," Cora whispers to her mom who nods her head at her.

"She needed help. I was helping her as her friend. And as your friend, I will tell you she is a good kisser. Not as good as me but..," Ellie says shrugging as Stiles stares at her before facing the map.

"Okay, you see this? This is how they got in-- it's a rooftop air conditioning vent, that leads down inside into the wall of the vault, which is here. Okay?" Stiles says as he circles the vault with a red marker before continuing.

"One of the robbers was lowered into this shaft. Now, that space is so small, it took him about twelve hours to drill into that wall, which is stone, by the way. Then, throughout the rest of the night, they siphoned the cash up to the guys back on the roof through that one little shaft in the wall," Stiles explains as Ellie nods.

"Can we fit in there?" Scott asks him making Stiles nod.

"Yes, we can, but very, very barely. And, they also patched the wall, obviously, so we're gonna need a drill of some kind. I'm thinking maybe a diamond-bit...," Stiles begins to explain until Derek cut him off.

"Look, forget the drill--," Derek begins to say impatiently making Stiles look at him with his eyebrows raised.

"I'm sorry?" Stiles asks incredulously.

"If I go in first, how much space do I have?" Derek asks making Stiles look at him in amazement.

" What do you... What do you think you're gonna do, Derek? You gonna punch through the wall?" Stiles asks him flabbergasted as Derek rolls his eyes.

"He has super strength and the drill will make too much noise and take too long," Talia tells Stiles who nods at her.

"Or I could go in first. I'm smaller and stronger," Ellie offers as she leans on the table making the three werewolves and Stiles look toward her.

"No," everyone tells the girl who pouts at them.

"No," Stiles, Derek, and Scott say making Ellie scoff.

"I'm sorry uhm does it look like I care what any of you say? Because if I do then something is wrong," Ellie states making Stiles roll his eyes.

"Yeah...this is Ellie's defense mechanism. She turns rude when sad," Allison says slowly making Ellie pout at her.

"You are not going," Derek tells her firmly as Ellie turns to him the two standing face to face with a glare on their faces.

"Oh yeah and whose going to stop me? You?" Ellie asks him as Derek crosses his arms and the two just stare at each other.

"If I have to I will throw you over my shoulder and chain you up to stop you. You aren't going," Derek tells her sternly as  Ellie raises an eyebrow.

"Hum kinky," Ellie tells him with a smirk as Derek glares at her.

"Really?" Allison asks her chuckling as Ellie shrugs. It was.

"I'm stronger than you Derek. You can't stop me," Ellie tells him as Derek just stares at her not saying anything.

"Alright stop both of you now before clothes get torn off each other," Stiles says as he rolls his eyes annoyed at the two.

"Yeah like you two reck of sexual tension," Cora says disgustedly.

Ellie and Derek turn to him glaring at Stiles who chuckles nervously. Derek then turns to Ellie and grabs her throwing her over his shoulder.

"Derek!" Ellie yells at him with a glare as he smirks at her shrugging.

"What the fuck?! Derek put me down! Now!" Ellie exclaims hitting his back as Derek walks out of the room. Stiles and Scott just walk wide-eyed as Peter smirks.

"Help me, you, idiots!" Ellie yells at Scott and Stiles who just look away from her.

Derek then enters his room and puts Ellie down who slaps him across the face angrily.

"Oh. She's mad mad," Issac says wide-eyed.

"What the fuck?! You did not just do that!" Ellie yells at him as Derek just looks at her with no emotion on his face.

"You're not going," Derek says with finality in his voice.

"And why's that?" Ellie asks him rolling her eyes.

"I saw you at the animal clinic. Your nose was bleeding," Derek says making Ellie tense as she looks away from him annoyed.

"That shouldn't have happened. Should it?" Derek asks her making Ellie glare at him harder.

"Fuck you," Ellie tells him venomously as she begins to leave the room.

"You already did," Derek tells Ellie who whispers a stinging hex under her breath making Derek glare at her.

Derek then grabs her arm softly making Ellie wince in pain since he fears m her right where she was hurt.

Derek removed his hand right away as he looks at Ellie closely.

"Remove your jacket," Derek tells her as Ellie scoffs.

"No," Ellie tells him as she goes to walk away but Derek stops her and removes her jacket slightly as Ellie sighs.

Derek sees the bloody bandage and looks at Ellie confused who wouldn't look at him.

Derek unwraps it and sees the stitched-up wound but it was still bleeding and the stitches weren't staying.

"That's bad. All the blood loss you are enduring. You can go into septic or shock," Melissa says ever the nurse.  

"Ellie," Derek says worriedly as Ellie sighs removing his grip before she rewraps her arm and puts her jacket on.

"It's nothing. Don't worry about it," Ellie tells him as she goes to walk away but Derek shakes his head.

"You are a werewolf and a guardian. You should have healed by now. Why didn't you?" Derek asks Ellie who rolls her eyes at him.

"We are not in a relationship anymore Derek so you do not need to worry about me or get to know anything involving my life," Ellie tells Derek who looks at her with an emotionless expression.

"Ouch," Liam says wincing as everyone does and Ellie just bites her lip.

"But I still care about you," Derek tells her as Ellie looks down slightly before leaving the room.

"Let's get this over with," Ellie tells the group as she heads towards the table. Looking up she saw Peter looking at her making her glare at him as Derek walks back to the table.

"He was listening," Cora stares seeing her uncle's reaction.

"I'll get through the wall. Who's following me?" Derek asks as he looks at Peter who shakes his head scoffing.

"Don't look at me! I'm not up to fighting speed, yet. And honestly, with Isaac out of commission, you're not looking at very good odds for yourself," Peter says Derek raises his eyebrows and Ellie scoffs.

"So, am I supposed to let them die?" Derek asks as Peter shrugs his shoulders a little.

"One of them is already dead," Peter tells him as Ellie glares at him.

"Shut it Peter before I make you," Ellie tells Peter who rolls his eyes at the girl.

"Even broken up you still defend each other," Lydia whispers softly. 

"Do I have to remind you what we're up against here? A pack of Alphas, all of them killers. And, if that's not enough to scare your testicles back into your stomach, try to remember that two of them combine bodies to form one giant Alpha," Peter says making Ellie scoff.

"That's creepy," stiles mutters wide-eyed as Ellie gaps.

"The twins," Ellie says looking at Lydia who looks at her wide-eyed.

"Of course! My love life sucks!" Lydia exclaims annoyed.

"And do I need to remind you I'm an Argent who is now a hybrid? Both a werewolf and a guardian. I can handle a pack of alphas and probably do my nails at the same time," Ellie tells him with a smirk as Peter rolls his eyes looking toward Derek.

"I probably could," Ellie says shrugging her shoulders.

"But you are not in fighting condition," Peter reminds Ellie who glares at him.

"I'm sure Erica and Boyd were sweet kids. They're gonna be missed," Peter mutters making Stiles sigh irritably as Ellie scoffs.

"Can someone kill him again, please?" Stiles asks as Ellie raises her hand.

"I volunteer!" Ellie exclaims as Peter glares at her and Stiles smirks.

"I do!" Ellie says nodding her head.

"You know it's weird how close they are in the future. Not as close as everyone else but no longer enemies either," Emilia whispers to her siblings who nod their heads.

"Derek, seriously? Not worth the risk," Peter says as he sighs but Derek ignores him looking towards Scott.

"What about you?" Derek asks him.

"Yeah, if you want me to come...," Stiles says thinking that Derek was talking to him as Ellie immediately shakes her head.

"Not you," Derek tells him irritably as Ellie nods.

"Yeah, you are not going. At all," Ellie tells Stiles who scoffs glaring at Ellie who shrugs. She wasn't going to allow him to get hurt.

"They are like your parents," Issac says chuckling.

"Like your one to talk," Stiles says glaring at Issac who shuts up at that.

Derek looks at Scott, who looks down at the vault of the bank in a circle on the table.

"I don't know about Erica... But, if Boyd's alive, we have to do something. We have to try," Scott says as Ellie nods agreeing with him.

"But?" Derek asks him hesitantly as Ellie sighs.

"Who's the other girl? The one locked in there with Boyd?" Scott asks as they share a look and Ellie shrugs.

"I'm guessing someone probably important to Derek. If they want to lure him out they will probably use someone important to him. More important than Boyd," Ellie tells the group who looks at her.

Everyone turns to Cora who rolls her eyes at them. Of course, she got kidnapped.

"What? I'm an Argent. You think of everything and every possibility," Ellie tells them with a shrug.

"True," Chris and Allison say nodding their heads. 

"But something isn't right. Why lock them together in a vault?" Ellie asks the group confused as she looks at the map.

"There's something we are missing," Ellie mutters looking at the screen.

━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━

Peter, Stiles, and Ellie stand in Derek's loft. Stiles paced as Ellie laid down on the table with her eyes closed thinking as Peter lay on the couch with his head back as if he were going to sleep.

"I can't take waiting around like this, you know? It's nerve-wracking. My nerves are wracked. They're severely wracked. Wracked!" Stiles stresses as Ellie hums nodding her head.

"I could beat you unconscious and wake you when it's over...," Peter tells him in a drolly voice.

"If you touch him I'll be the one knocking you unconscious," Ellie threatens Peter.

"Or to death," Ellie says shrugging at Peter.

"I agree with Ellie though. I don't understand the bank, though, okay? Wha...Like, why wouldn't they chain them up in some underground lair or something? They're an Alpha Pack, right? So, shouldn't they have a lair?" Stiles questions as Ellie nods thinking.

"They're Werewolves, not Bond villains," Peter tells him making Ellie roll her eyes at him.

"Wait a sec, wait a sec-- maybe they're living there, you know? Like, maybe the bank vault reminds them of their little wolf dens!" Stiles exclaims as Peter and Ellie look at them with a raised eyebrows.

"Wolf dens?" Peter asks him slowly as Stiles nods.

"Yeah, wolf dens! Where do you live?" Stiles asks as Ellie scoffs Peter shrugs indifferently.

"In an underground network of caves hidden deep in the woods...," Peter tells him sarcastically as Ellie rolls her eyes and Stiles looks at Peter with wide eyes.

"Whoa, really?" Stiles asks him excitedly as Peter scoffs.

"No, you idiot. I have an apartment downtown," Peter tells him making Stiles's face fall as he rolls his eyes.

"Well that's a letdown," Stiles mutters.

"Okay, fine, but still, that just proves that there's something up with the bank. And why wait around for the full moon, huh? Why not just kill them whenever they want to?" Stiles questions as Ellie gets up and Peter shrugs.

"Maybe they think it's poetic," Peter tells him annoyed.

"No that's not it," Ellie mutter as she grabs Stiles's bag who was confused but didn't stop her.

"They've already had three full moons to be poetic," Stiles tells Peter.

"And here, you've only had one full hour to be so annoying--," Peter says Ellie cuts him off.

"We have a problem. A big problem," Ellie states making the two look toward her.

"The walls are made of hecatolite," Ellie tells them as Peter looks at her wide-eyed.

"That doesn't sound good. What does that mean?" Stiles asks seeing the horrified look on the all werewolves' and two Argent's faces.

"Is that awful? That sounds awful," Stiles questions as he looks back and forth between Ellie and Peter.

"Get 'em on the phone! Call them, now!" Peter tells Stiles urgently making his eyes widen as he grabs his phone.

"Okay, why...?" Stiles questions the two confused as Ellie sighs.

"Cause Boyd and that girl aren't gonna kill each other... They're gonna kill Derek and Scott," Ellie tells Stiles who looks wide-eyed at her.

"That mineral scatters the moonlight but it can also keep it out. Neither has been affected by the full moon in months," Ellie tells him worriedly as she begins to pace playing with her rings as Stiles hurries to call Scott.

"Stiles now is not the best time...," Scott says once he answers the one.

"Scott! Scott! No, listen to me, okay? Look, you gotta get outta there. Look, the walls of the vault are made from a mineral called hecatolite-- it scatters the moonlight," Stiles tells him as Ellie looks worried.

"What does that mean?" Scott asks confused as Ellie grabs the phone.

"That they are two werewolves who have not been affected by the full moon in probably months! They will kill you both in seconds! They aren't in control! Their animal instincts are present and they are deadly!" Ellie exclaims in panic.

"Yeah...that's not good," Stiles mutters gulping. 

"Derek, we have a problem," the group hears Scott says, but Derek didn't respond immediately.

"Derek?!" Ellie yells worriedly as Peter looks at the girl.

"Cora?" They hear Derek say making Ellie look wide-eyed along with Peter. Ellie knew about Cora. Derek's younger sister who he believed died in the fire.

"Stupid werewolves," Cora says annoyed. 

"Derek... get out. Go now!" A female voice growls out.

"Scott? Hey, Scott! Scott! Scott? Scott, are you hearing this? Scott?" Stiles yells into the phone, but then the line goes dead.

"No," Ellie mutters before she glares and she grabs her keys running out of the loft towards the bank.

"Ellie!" Chris yells at his daughter terrified.
