10// Lies
Nothing. That's all that I felt, nothing. While I was passed out everything was still and it felt good to leave everything and just forget. It felt good to forget about the deadpool, my family, and most of all Scott. I don't know why I thought about him, but he always seemed to find a way into my mind. Even in the times I didn't want him to he was there and, I hate it because I know he can't be mine.
"Adeline." I hear someone say, distributing me from my thoughts.
I slowly open my eyes and squint at the brightness of the light. I look up and see plastic covering around me. Where am I?
"What's happening?" I groan.
A girl in a yellow mask outfit walks towards me.
"Everything's fine you just need to lay down and rest." She explains.
She picks up a needle and grabs my arm. I quickly sit up and pull my arm away from her grasp.
"What's going on and this time I want an answer!" I yell.
"My instructions are to give students this shot, not inform them on things they shouldn't worry about." She says.
I roll my eyes. I don't have time for this I need to find the pack and figure out what's happening.
"Well could you get me a glass of water? My throats really dry." I cough.
She nods and walks away. I quickly hop of the table and rush out of the room and around all of the other doctors. I look around and make sure that the coast is clear before running out of the door and into the hallway as silently as possible.
"Where is everybody?" I question.
I look for my phone, but remember that Mrs. Martin has it.
"Shit!" I hiss.
I walk through the halls and use my hearing to find the pack. My powers were close to useless as my body got weaker and weaker.
"It's still happening." I hear someone say and automatically I turn towards the sound.
I rush towards the room and open the door. Inside stands the pack as they discuss.
"Adeline!" Scott says relieved.
He walks towards me and pulls me into a hug. I hug him back.
"They wouldn't tell me what happened to you." He says silently.
"It's okay. I'm fine, and that's all that matters." I say back as I snuggle into him.
He pulls away and nods.
"What's happening to everybody?" I ask.
"There's a virus." Stiles says.
I turn towards him.
"And obviously it's affecting you three in a way it won't hit any human." Mr. Yukimara says.
"What do you mean?" I ask.
"I can't make them go back." Malia says.
I look towards her hand and see that her claws are fully exposed.
"Oh." I say.
"You guys have to stay out of sight. We have to quarantine you away from the quarantine." Stiles explains.
"Yeah but where? I mean what if they get violent?" Kira questions.
"We shouldn't stay in here. Not in the locker room." Scott says.
"A classroom is not going to hold us." I say.
"What about the basement?" Kira asks.
"Too many ways out. We need something secure. Somewhere nobody can find us." I say.
"The vault." Stiles says.
I nod. The vault is the perfect place.
"The hale vault. The hales always have an escape route. Like their house. There has to be another way in." Scott explains.
"There has to be." I agree.
"This is where the school sign is, so the vaults got to be right about here." Stiles says.
"I suppose if there's a second entrance, it would probably be accessible from the basement." Mr.Yukimara says.
"It's probably somewhere in this hallway." Stiles says.
"West corridor." I finish.
I feel my eyes glow and I gasp.
"Woah." I say.
"It's happening to you too. You're getting sick. You all are." Mr. Yukimara says.
I try to change my eye color back to normal, but they still remained their bright purple.
"I don't feel sick." Kira says back.
"I thinks affecting you differently, neurologically. I found your test answers here in a pile with the others." Mr. Yukimara says as he pulls out her packet.
Her answers were all bubbled in but next to the bubble and not inside. I look to Kira worriedly.
"What's happening to us?" I question silently.
"Hey, guys over here." Stiles calls.
I walk over and look at the wall.
"Look at the cracks in the wall. It's like the entrance outside, it only opens with claws, right?" Stiles questions as he looks to Scott.
"Um... Malia, can you try?" Scott asks.
I give Scott a weird look and turn back to Malia.
"Why me?" Malia asks.
"I don't have control." Scott explains.
"Okay. I'll do it." Malia says but cuts Scott and Stiles off. "But first tell me what you've been hiding from me." She says.
Scott and Stiles turn to each other and search for an answer. What's up with them?
"I know you think you're trying to protect me, but I can handle it. I know I'm on the list." Malia says.
Stiles and Scott let out a breathe and nod.
"Yes." Stiles says.
"So how much?" Malia asks.
"How much what?" Stiles ask.
I shake my head and smack Stiles on the back of the head.
"Money dumbass." I say.
"Oh. Four million." Stiles says.
Malia nods and Stiles looks at her in worry.
"Are you okay?" I ask.
"Yeah. Scott's worth 25, Kira's 6, and you're like 50. They'll take you guys out way before me." Malia says.
"Nice to know you care about us." I say sarcastically.
"That's progress. That's progress." Stiles whispers.
"Progress my ass, Stilinski."

The vault was cold and to be honest I wished I was anywhere but here. The only thing in the tiny cement walled room was a few shelves.
"You know this is where it all started. That's where the money was. 117 million in bearer bonds." Stiles says.
I look towards him and nod.
"It is." I say quietly.
"How do you even change bearer bonds into cash." Kira asks.
"Who the hell knows. Bearer bonds are basically extinct."
"You know how many problems that money could solve?" Stiles asks.
I look towards Scott and see him look to the ground. I knew him and his mother were having money problems.
"For you?" Kira asks.
"Me. My dad..." Stiles says slowly before trailing off. "The Eichan House and Mri bills are crushing him." Stiles says.
"Mom does the same thing. She writes down all the items in our budget, and how much they cost, them she adds them all up and figures out how long we have until... We lose the house." Scott says never making eye contact.
I walk over and pull Scott and Stiles into a hug.
"It'll all be over soon." I say, but will it?
When is any of this going to be over?

"They're looking for us. Someone's going to have to go out there." Scott tells Stiles.
Scott and Stiles start to whisper about something, but I was beginning to get to weak to even hear them. Stiles suddenly stands up and walks over to Malia who leans against a shelf as she slowly falls asleep.
"Malia... Malia?" Stiles asks as he shakes her awake.
She opens her eyes and smiles.
"I gotta leave for a few, okay?" He asks.
"Where are you going? She asks.
"Whatever's happening, it's worse for you guys. That means it's not just people getting sick, it's another assassin." Stiles explains.
Malia begins to breathe heavily and Stiles hands her his jacket. She smiles gratefully and thanks him.
"You're coming back right?" Malia asks.
"Yeah. Yeah I'd never leave you behind." He says as he looks deeply into her eyes.
I don't think it was till now that I actually saw how much they need each other. To be honest I think I'm might actually be a little bit jealous. I'm interrupted by the sound of Stiles leaving.
"Malia?" I question as I move towards her.
"Yeah." She answers.
"Are you going to be okay?" I ask.
She nods and leans her head against my shoulder.
"I hope so." She responds.

Time pasts and I feel myself slowly get weaker and weaker. I close my eyes and try to fall asleep when I hear Malia start to breathe heavily.
"Malia?" Scott asks.
"I can't see. I can't see anything!" She says in fear.
I suddenly feel myself start to transform, but I couldn't control any of it.
"I'm can't control it!" I shout in fear.
Scott looks towards me, but all I could see it red.
"Find your anchor." Scott says.
I searched through my mind for anything, but nothing seemed to work.
"It's not working!" I scream.
"I can't see... I can't see!" Kira yells.
I stand up and look around the room.
"Adeline you can control it!" Scott yells.
I try thinking of anything, but only one thing clouded my mind... the fire. All I could imagine was the fire burning away as my family screamed in pain and misery. I watched as my mom stood in her room in fear as the fire neared towards her.
"Make it stop!" I scream, but the image still played in my mind.
A tear falls down her cheek as she watches the fire that is killing her family grow towards her. Closing her eyes one last time the fire engulfs her. Just like that the fire disappears and I fall to the floor. I open my eyes slowly and see that I'm still in the vault.
"Scott?" I question.
I turn around and see Scott leaning against one of the shelves, and he looked horrible.
"Scott?!" I shout as I crawl towards him quickly.
He looks around the room in confusion.
"Adeline?" He asks.
"Scott what's wrong?" I ask.
"We can't see." He explains.
I look around and see Malia and Kira who look similar to Scott.
"Hey Scott?!" I hear someone yell.
"Stiles?!" I yell back.
"Adeline, in the vault in there with you! It's called Reishi mushrooms. Open the door! It's in there with you! It's in a jar! It's on one of the shelves! Scott?! Adeline?! Can you hear me?!" Stiles screams in panic.
I stand up quickly and look around the room for the mushrooms. In panic I knock some of the jars off the shelf and gasp.
"Adeline hurry!" Stiles yells.
I search the shelf and cry out in joy when I find the jar. I run towards Malia and give her one. Next Kira and lastly Scott. Slowly they stand up and look around the room. Scott walks towards the door and opens it. Stiles runs in and goes straight to Malia.
"Hey Malia!" He yells, but she walks past him.
I look as she drops a piece of paper on the floor. I walk over and pick it up.
"Malia Hale?" I question.
I turn towards Scott and Stiles and shove the peice of paper towards them.
"What is this?!" I shout.
"We were going to tell you guys." Scott says.
"What that Malia's my cousin?" I yell back.
They look at me speechless and I shake my head.
"I'm leaving to find Malia and don't try to find us." I tell them angrily.
"Adeline?" Scott tries, but I stop him.
"Don't!" I say.
I walk past them, but turn around.
"Not telling me something, or hiding something on purpose is the just the same as lying." I say.
"And you just can't stop stop lying, can you?" I ask Scott as I turn around and finally leave.
