013 — chaos rising

season three —
episode two

─────────────────

THE NEXT DAY Marlo is just chilling in her apartment since returning home from her trip away with Derek.

She wouldn't admit it since they left abruptly after everything she and the alpha did for them—but she misses Erica a lot right now.

She never really got close to Boyd but she was still their female alpha even though she wasn't a werewolf.

Marlo just sighs to herself and pours a glass of blood—a few weeks ago her hunger and urge for blood has grown stronger.

She would never go and out and actually drink someone dry though.

That thought just makes a shiver of darkness run down her spine, although Derek has also been pretty closed off and pretending not to care about his two betas being missing.

Marlo isn't stupid and knows he is extremely worried and concerned that he hasn't even heard a single thing from the two, as Isaac is resting downstairs in Derek's loft.

Marlo sips her glass of fresh blood out of a bag from the hospital perks of Derek and Melissa themselves.

She pours the rest of the bag in the glass before walking back to her bedroom and putting clothes away while having a show in the background for the extra background noise.

She inhaled deeply as she finds the jacket Erica wore to the school to show everyone her new and confident look when Derek first turned her into a werewolf.

"Where are you E?" Marlo whispers sadly, as a song on the show comes on she begins humming it softly while folding the jacket and putting it back in her wardrobe and grabbing more of her clean clothes to put away.

Still humming to the melody in the background, she takes another sip of the blood in her glass.

Realising that's now finished, she decides she's thirsty for something different going out into her kitchen to grab a bottle of red wine taking the whole bottle back into her room and continues with what she was doing.

After forty minutes of packing away her clothes and even some from when she first returned to beacon hills as well.

She sits on her bed and grabs her phone from the side table seeing a text message from Isaac about tomorrow morning.

'Derek's called Peter and he agreed to come over tomorrow morning, please tell me you're coming and not leaving me alone with Satan? — Isaac' Marlo just chuckles at the text message from the younger beta of hers and Derek's.

'You know I wouldn't leave you alone with him at all, of course I'll come downstairs tomorrow morning before noon — Marlo'  she types back before pressing the send button.

She just lays back on her bed now tapping away on her stomach and grabs the bottle of wine again and looks at the clock beside her bed to realise it's twenty to ten at night.

"Bath time" Marlo says to herself undressing herself and walking into the bathroom in her bedroom and running herself a bath.

─────────────────

ON THE OTHER SIDE of town, the new deputy returns home after a busy day at the sheriff station to find his stepfather waiting for him at his house's front door.

"I told you no!" Riley snaps, "Yeah well Riley, you do what I say unless you want me to kill you like I did your mother" James snaps back.

Riley just exhales and allows the vampire and former hunter inside his new house, "Have you seen her yet?" James asks.

"Nope and I haven't exactly been looking! I have a job to attend and participate in" Riley says taking off his uniform and throwing on a comfortable shirt.

"Well tomorrow you're going to go looking for her, Deucalion is here and waiting to recruit her and we cannot allow that" James says to his step-son.

"Luckily I have tomorrow off and I'm able to do that—your majesty, I mean why not allow Deucalion to recruit her then she'll become stronger and you can eventually kill her then?" Riley says snapping at his step father over the plan on killing someone he still deeply cares for.

"Oh Riley, Riley, Riley, you're a weak man who still has his heart set on someone who doesn't even know you're alive" James seethes earning a scoff from the vampire across the room from him.

"Don't you have a brother-in-law to go annoy or something? Instead of annoying me all the time? I'm tired and just want to sleep" Riley says motioning for the former hunter and vampire to leave his house.

James just chuckles before exiting his house and making his way over to the other side of town to see someone he hasn't seen in fifteen years.

─────────────────

THE NEXT MORNING, Marlo doesn't remember falling asleep the night before looking at the clock on her bedside table quickly getting up.

"Shit, shit, shit" Marlo grits out realising the time is eleven-forty-five am and she has fifteen minutes to get ready and make her way downstairs for the meeting with Peter to help Isaac get some of his memory back.

As Isaac and Derek are downstairs, the teenager begins getting nervous thinking the vampire isn't coming, "Maybe she's not coming" Isaac says to his alpha.

"She's coming, she probably just over slept Isaac" Derek mumbles flipping through his magazine he found, just as the sliding door opens Marlo comes running in.

"Sorry overslept, I'm here" she says, Isaac just smiles and shares a hug with his older friend.

"Hi Der" Marlo says kissing the alpha's cheek and hugging him from behind, "Hello Lo" Derek says.

Marlo just smiles and sits on the couch behind Derek now waiting for the former alpha to arrive.

"You know I'm starting not to like this idea, it sounds kind of dangerous, you know what I definitely don't like this idea, and I definitely don't like him" Isaac says walking back and forth in front of Derek's huge window.

"You'll be fine" Derek says, "Does it have to be him?" Isaac asks.

"He knows how to do it, we don't, it'll be more dangerous if I tried doing it myself or Marlo" Derek says not looking up from his magazine he's gathering information from.

"You know Scott doesn't trust him right? Personally I trust Scott" Isaac says.

"You trust me and Marlo right?" Derek asks now looking at his beta in question.

"Yeah" Isaac answers noticing Derek reading again, "I still don't like him" Isaac says.

"Nobody likes him" Marlo says adding herself into the conversation earning a smile from both males in the room.

For the second time in an hour the sliding door opens revealing an offended Peter.

"Boys, Marlo, FYI, yes, coming back from the dead has left my abilities slightly impaired but the hearing still works—so I hope you're comfortable with saying whatever it is that you're feeling straight to my face" Peter says.

Derek looking at the former alpha in amusement, "We don't like you" Derek bluntly mutters snapping the book shut standing up, "Now shut up and help us" Derek demands.

Marlo just laughs quietly although all of the them could hear her, "Fair enough" Peter then says flicking his hand so his claws can come out.

"Relax, I'll get more out of you if you're calm" Peter says walking up to Isaac who is seated on a single chair.

While Marlo and Derek are seated beside each other on the couch beside Isaac in case something happens.

"How do you know how to do this again?" Isaac asks worriedly, "It's an ancient ritual used mostly by alphas since it's a skill that requires quite a little bit of practice—one slip and you could paralyse someone or kill them" Peter says receiving looks off both Marlo and Derek.

"You've had a lot of practice though right?" Isaac asks, "Well I've never paralysed anyone" Peter answers again receiving looks from both Derek and Marlo.

Derek however tilts his head and squints his eyes knowing that means his killed someone before doing it.

"Wait does that mean that you've—" Isaac goes to question although Peter shoves his claws into the back of the young werewolves head alerting both the vampire and alpha in the loft.

Isaac grunts in pain and tries to find Peter although Peter grabs him quite roughly not allowing him the space to move.

Isaac eventually starts moving his body around trying to fight off the older man's grip and Derek looks up in concern seeing the faces Peter is making, meaning something might be happening in Isaac's memory.

Derek stands up after Isaac begins kicking and jerking his feet to stop Peter doing this mind thing before Peter in the zone of Isaac's brain.

Wait, I see them" alerting Derek who is still standing up.

Marlo who stands up now also looking at the werewolves in confusion and concern as well.

Peter eventually grunts and pulls his claws out of the back of Isaac's skull and falls back on the table behind him.

Marlo steps forward to make sure their beta is okay and not seriously injured as he puts his hand on the back of his head where the claw marks are still—slowly healing.

"What did you see?" Derek ask, "Uh, it was confusing, um, images, ah, it was vague shapes" Peter mumbles out controlling his shaky hand while doing so, "But you saw something?" Derek asks.

"Isaac found them" Peter says, "Erica and Boyd?" Derek asks, "I barely saw them, I mean, it was glimpses" Peter says.

"But you did see them" Derek says aggravated, "Worse" Peter answers.

"Deucalion" Derek answers, Marlo gets chills up her spine at the man's name.

Somehow now more than ever—something about this man intrigues Marlo.

Not to the point of evilness or anything but the things her body does when his name is mentioned says things to her.

"He was talking to them, something about time running out" Peter says.

Isaac now managing to find the strength and not swallow down the fear he is feeling, "What does it mean?" Isaac asks looking at his leaders.

Derek sits back down on the couch alongside Marlo again cracking his knuckles and looking back at the werewolf beta, "His gonna kill them" Derek states.

"No, no, no, he didn't say that, he did make them a promise—that by the full moon they'd both be dead" Peter says, "The next full moon?" Derek questions.

"Tomorrow night" Peter states looking at them all now.

After a while of discussing things, both Marlo and Derek are called to the school after the two teenage girls discovered something, Derek and Marlo look at each other.

"I don't see anything" Derek says, "Look again" Scott pleads, "How is a bruise gonna tell us where Boyd and Erica are?" Derek says looking Allison dead in the eye.

"It's the same on both sides, exactly the same" Scott says, "It's nothing" Marlo says.

"Pareidolia, seeing patterns that aren't there? It's a subset of apophenia" Lydia says.

Derek and Marlo just look at Scott who sighs, "They're trying to help" Scott says.

"These two?" Derek questions pointing at Lydia first, "This one who used me and injured Marlo to resurrect my psychotic uncle—thank you" Derek then says sarcastically before continuing.

"And this one, who shot about thirty arrows into me and my pack?" Derek says pointing at Allison—who is looking at the alpha now with a scowl.

"Okay, all right, now, come on, no one died, all right?" Stiles sighs while saying.

"Look, there may have been a little maiming, okay? A little mangling, but not death! And that's what I call an important distinction" Stiles then continues getting a dark look of Marlo in return.

"My mother died" Allison says softly, Derek then scoffs, "Your family's little honour code killed your mother, not us" Derek says.

"That girl was looking for Scott and Marlo, I'm here to help them—not you Derek" Allison says.

"You wanna help? Find something real" Derek then says.

Marlo and Derek then step away to leave, leaving the teenagers to discuss things but before they can make it to the door.

"Guys, give her a chance, okay? They're on our side now" Scott says, Marlo groans growing tired of this conversation and beginning not to feel well speaks up.

"Well, then maybe you should tell her what her mother was actually trying to do that night" She says to the teenager.

Derek turns around to allow Marlo to step out of the room first, Marlo having the urge to get out of the room as soon as possible and feeling incredibly nauseous like she's going to throw up bolts to the nearest bathroom and hauls herself over the toilet bowl letting whatever doesn't agree with her come up.

Derek who was a couple steps behind her waits for her outside of the bathroom, ten minutes go by and Marlo then steps out looking deathly pale and sick.

"You okay?" Derek asks helping the girl walk in some way, "Yeah I'm okay now, something just didn't agree with my stomach" Marlo says rubbing her lower stomach.

Derek stops and motions for the vampire to jump onto his back due to her being weak and unable to walk.

"Maybe you're hungry? I know how your thirst has been the past few weeks" Derek shrugs adjusting the woman on his back now and walking out of the school to his car.

Allowing the vampire to jump off his back and kiss his cheek, "That might be it, I didn't eat anything this morning either, after rushing out to meet you guys in your loft and stuff" Marlo shrugs.

"Lucky for you Lo, I have some bloodbags in the back on ice just for you" Derek says grabbing the cooler behind her seat and grabbing her two and handing them to her.

"Thanks handsome" Marlo says unzipping the lid and sipping the red liquid.

"Your welcome gorgeous" Derek mumbles starting his ignition and driving away from the school.

They soon arrive back at the loft building they both live in, Marlo rushes inside again to puke her brains out in the toilet.

"Lo, are you okay?" Derek says against the door frame listening to the woman wrenching and gagging into the toilet bowl.

"I'm fine! You can wait downstairs" Marlo sighs leaning on the toilet seat—before wiping her mouth and drinking some water.

She makes her way downstairs to join Derek who is rushing out saying Deaton might have a way for Isaac to remember.

Marlo smiles and shrugs saying she's happy to attend as well.

They leave and drive to the clinic where Isaac, Scott, Stiles and Deaton are waiting for them.

"Sorry we're late, I've been quite unwell" Marlo sighs leaning against the table behind them allowing Derek, Scott and Stiles to pour ice into the bathtub Isaac is about to sit in and try and calm his body enough for the memories to come rushing back.

"Obviously it's not going to be practically comfortable but if we can slow your heart rate down enough you'll slip into a trance like state" Deaton says talking to Isaac but also loud enough for everyone in the back of the clinic to hear as well.

"Like being hypnotised?" Isaac asks walking over to the tub, "Exactly, you'll be a half transformed, it'll let us access your subconscious mind" Deaton answers.

Isaac leans down and feels the water and ice hissing at the coldness, "How slow does his heart need to be?" Scott asks worried for his friend.

"Very slow" Deaton says, "Yeah well how slow is very slow?" Derek asks leaning against the tub.

"Nearly dead" Deaton says now being looked at by both Scott and Derek which worried looks on their faces, "It is safe though, right?" Isaac asks.

"Do you want me to answer honestly?" Deaton says from beside Isaac.

Isaac then turns his body back to the tub and mumbles, "No, not really" Isaac answers.

Suddenly a snapping sound can be heard and all of those present except one turn their heads to face the source of the noise.

Which happens to be Stiles putting on a glove and having the time of his life before he looks at everyone in the room, "What?" Stiles asks.

Earning a raise of the eyebrows from Derek and his sister who is still under the weather, he pulls the glove off and walks back over to the tub.

Isaac gets up taking a huge deep breath, "Look if it feels too risky, you don't have to do this" Derek says earning a nod from Scott as well.

Isaac then looks over at Marlo seeing her nodding her head in agreement as well.

The curly headed boy then takes off his shirt and gets into the tub feet first as Scott takes his jacket off preparing to hold the boy down in the freezing cold ice bath.

Derek steps forward before looking at Marlo leaning against the table still.

They then push Isaac under the water having him come up almost straight away in his werewolf state letting our roars.

"Get him back under" Deaton demands, Derek and Scott do as told and push the boy under again leaving him thrashing against their hold before getting up the surface again grunting due to the coldness.

"Hold him!" Deaton orders, "We're trying" Derek snarls in a serious tone.

Marlo steps forward even though she's still nauseous and weak.

She pushes the boy under as well as the others and they notice the boy finally stopped fighting them and settled into the bathtub and begins floating to the top—letting out a breath as he resurfaces.

Deaton holds his pointer finger while saying, "Now remember only I talk to him, too many voices will confuse him, and draw him out" he says as they all nod is understanding.

Deaton then leans forward, "Isaac? Can you hear me?" he asks, "Yes, I can hear you" Isaac quietly says.

"This is Dr Deaton, I'd like to ask you a few questions, is that all right?" Deaton then proceeds to ask, "Yes" Isaac responds.

"I want to ask you about the night you found Erica and Boyd, I want you to remember it for me in as vivid detail as possible, like you're actually there again" Deaton says.

"I-I don't want to do that! I don't wanna do that—I don't wanna do that!" Isaac responds anxiously.

"Isaac, it's all right, just relax, they're just memories, you can't be hurt by a memory" Deaton responds.

"I don't wanna do that" Isaac stammers, "It's all right—" Deaton says before getting interrupted.

"I don't wanna do that!" Isaac repeats getting more anxious.

"Relax, relax, good, now, let's go back to that night—to the place you found Erica and Boyd, can you tell me what you see? Is there some kind of building? A house?" Deaton asks.

"It's not—it's not a house, it's stone, I think marble" Isaac responds softly, "That's perfect, can you give me any other descriptors?" Deaton asks soothingly.

"It's dusty and so empty like an abandoned building" Isaac says growing more frightened now, "Isaac? Isaac?" Deaton asks.

"Someone's here—someone's here!" Isaac says panicked, "Isaac, relax" Deaton says.

"No, no, no, they see me! They see me!" Isaac says scared grabbing onto Scott and Marlo's arms.

"Just memories, you won't be hurt by your memories, just relax, relax" Deaton says to the boy who relaxes.

"Good, now, tell us what you see, tell us everything" Deaton says soothingly.

Isaac mentions Boyd and not being in control, "I hear him, he's talking about the full moon, about being out of control when the moon rises" Isaac answers.

"Is he talking to Erica?" Deaton questions, "I think so, I can't, I can't see her, I can't see either of them" Isaac says, "Can you hear anything else?" Deaton then asks.

"They're worried what they'll do during the moon, they're worried that they're gonna hurt each other" Isaac stammers while his teeth chatter from the cold.

"If they're locked together on the full moon, they're gonna tear each other apart" Derek quietly says to the others in the room.

"Isaac, we need to find them right now, can you see them?" Deaton says firmly.

"No" Isaac says, "Do you know what kind of room it is? Is there any kind of a marker? A number on a door? A sign?" Deaton asks.

"They're here!" Isaac says scared and panicked, "It's all right" Deaton says, "No!" Isaac says still panicked.

"Just tell us" Deaton starts to say before being cut off, "They see me! They found me! They're here!" Isaac says.

Derek being impatient and pissed off, "This isn't working, Isaac, where are you?" Derek demands.

"I can't see them, it's too dark!" Isaac says, "Just tell me where you are" Derek says.

"You are confusing him" Deaton says urgently, "I can't see!" Isaac then says.

"Isaac, where are you? Just tell me where you are!" Derek demands.

"His heart rate, he could go into shock" Deaton says to the alpha holding his beta still, "Derek, let him go!" Scott orders.

"Isaac, where are you? What did you see?" Derek says frustratedly, "A vault! It's a bank vault!" Isaac states.

Before suddenly waking up from his hypnosis urgently—yelling out excitedly.

"I saw it! I saw the name, it's, uh, B-Beacon Hills First National Bank, it's, um it's an abandoned bank, and they're keeping them locked inside, inside the vault" Isaac says breathless now.

Frowning looking around the room to the glum looks from Marlo, Derek, Stiles and the others.

"What?" Isaac asks, "You don't remember what you said right before you came out of it, do you?" Stiles asks grimly, "No" Isaac answers.

"You said when they captured you, that they dragged you into a room, and that there was a body in it" Stiles says.

"What body?" Isaac then asks, "Erica, you said it was Erica" Stiles says sighing.

Marlo now even more nauseous runs outside and pukes again and again.

Before returning to the others inside again—receiving and concerned look from Derek and her brother.

"She's not dead" Derek states, "Derek, he said, 'there's a dead body, it's Erica', doesn't exactly leave us room for interpretation" Stiles says to the alpha.

"Then who was in the vault with Boyd?" Derek asks, "Someone else obviously" Stiles says.

"And maybe it was the girl on the motorcycle, okay? The one who saved you?" Scott asks Isaac.

"No, she wasn't like us and whoever was in the vault with Boyd was" Isaac says.

"What if that's how Erica died? They, like, pit them against each other during the full moons and see which one survives? It's like Werewolf Thunderdome" Stiles says.

"Then we get them out tonight" Derek states firmly.

"Be smart about this, Derek, you can't just go storming in especially with the way Marlo is at the moment as well" Deaton says looking over at the vampire worried.

"If Isaac got in, then so can we" Derek shrugs, "But he didn't get through a vault door, did he?" Deaton then states.

"We need a plan." Scott says, "How are we gonna come up with a plan to break into a bank vault in less than twenty-four hours?" Derek asks.

"Uh, I think someone already did" Stiles says and then begins reading aloud.

"'Beacon Hills First National Bank closes its doors three months after vault robbery.' Doesn't say here how it was robbed, but it probably won't take long to find out." Stiles says.

"How long?" Derek then asks, "It's the internet Derek, okay? Minutes" Stiles says to the alpha sighing.

They all go their separate ways and Derek helps the weak vampire out into his car and up to his loft's bedroom.

"Why are we here at your loft when mines upstairs?" Marlo grumbles.

"Because Lo, I'm keeping an eye on you, you've been throwing up on and off the past few hours and can't keep any food or liquids down" Derek says rubbing the woman's forehead checking if she has a fever which she doesn't.

She just sighs and flips backwards onto his comfortable bed and snuggles into his pillows.

"Mhm these smell good" Marlo mumbles into the pillow he sleeps on.

Derek just chuckles and undoes Marlo's boots and changes her with her consent into one of his shirts and basketball shorts so she can sleep comfortably without her jeans on.

She just sighs and almost immediately knocks out into a slumber, Derek just chuckles and takes a deep breath before showering and getting into bed next to her.

He lays on his back for a little while until Marlo slowly rolls over onto his chest and cuddles up against.

He soon passes out as well into a deep slumber.

The next morning Derek is awake before Marlo and he looks at her to notice she has more colour to her face and looks a lot healthier than yesterday.

He just glances down at her smiling and kissing her forehead—getting up and going into her apartment above his to grab her new clothes.

He takes notice of the leather jacket of hers Erica burrowed hanged up beside her favourite winter coat.

He frowns silently praying to himself that Erica isn't actually dead because he knows it'll destroy Marlo.

He grabs the bag of clothes from her bed and makes his way downstairs to Marlo still asleep, he showers again freshening up for the days events.

He soon hears the bathroom door opening and Marlo sleepily walking in and getting into the shower with him.

She wraps her arms around his torso and leans her head against his back.

"How are you feeling this morning Lo?" Derek asks, "Better, thank Der" Marlo says kissing his bare back.

"You've got some colour to you this morning which is good" Derek then says.

Marlo smiles and puts her head under the stream of water, "I grabbed you some clothes as well" Derek says.

Marlo just thanks him and grabs the towel from the fresh pile and wraps it against her naked body before she gets dressed into her fresh day clothes.

"I didn't realise you still owned these basketball shorts" Marlo says chuckling remembering their high school years together with Paige as well.

"I miss her you know?" Marlo says suddenly, "Me too, Lo" Derek mumbles sadly.

"I know you loved her too Der, so you miss her a lot more" Marlo says wrapping her arms around him again.

"She was innocent and didn't deserve any of it" Derek grumbles out, Marlo just nods in agreement sighing.

Marlo and Derek just chill out for most of the day doing their usuals and Marlo catches up on her liquid intake since yesterday she was so unwell.

Eventually five o'clock comes around and Scott, Stiles and Peter make their way towards Derek's loft for the plan.

"Okay, you see this? This is how they got in, it's a rooftop air conditioning vent, leads down inside into the wall of the vault, which is here" Stiles says circling an area on the piece of paper.

"Okay, 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 says pointing to the map he brought over for the alpha and vampire to use.

"Boom!" Stiles then says slamming the marker he had on table in front of them, "Can we fit in there?" Scott then asks.

"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 says before Derek interrupts.

"Look, forget the drill" he says, "Sorry?" Stiles asks incredulously, "If I go in first, how much space do I have?" Derek asks.

"What do you think you're gonna do, Derek? You gonna punch through the wall?" Stiles asks flabbergasted, "Yes, Stiles, I'm gonna punch through the wall" Derek says.

"Okay, okay, big guy, let's see it; let's see that fist; big old fist, make it, come on! get it out there; don't be scared, big bad wolf; yeah, look at that! Okay, see this? That's maybe three inches of room to gather enough force to punch through solid" Stiles scoffs making Derek punch his hand leaving the teenage boy in pain and grunting while Marlo watches them both in amusement and laughs softly.

"He could do it" Stiles then says groaning, "I'll get through the wall, who's following me?" Derek asks looking at Scott, Marlo and Peter.

"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.

"So, I'm supposed to just let them die?" Derek asks, "One of them already is dead" Peter shrugs.

"We don't know that!" Derek snaps growing irritated.

"Do I have to remind you what we're up against here? A pack of alpha's, 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, I'm sure Erica and Boyd were sweet kids, they're gonna be missed" Peter says.

Stiles returns to the table still shaking out is injured hand from Derek's punch.

Marlo just chuckles seeing her goofy brother look at the alpha werewolf with a glare.

"Could someone kill him again, please?" Stiles says appalled by what the male just said.

"Derek, seriously? Not worth the risk" Peter then says sighing, "What about you two?" Derek asks Scott and Marlo.

"Yeah, if you want me to come—" Stiles begins stammering, "Not you!" Derek exclaims tired of the teenage boy.

"Got it" Stiles says pointing at the vampire and werewolf beside him, "I don't know about Erica but, if Boyd's alive, we have to do something, we have to try" Scott says, "But?" Derek asks hesitantly.

"Who's the other girl? The one locked in there with Boyd?" Scott asks.

Now Derek looks at Marlo who is chewing on her bottom lip anxiously.

"I don't know if me a vampire should go inside a vault of angry werewolves is a good idea Der" Marlo says.

"That's understandable Lo, but if you wanna come then do it, you're a vampire! A freaking vampire babe! Do this for me, for Erica and for the others" Derek says.

Marlo just nods and agrees she'll help them get inside the vault and then find a way inside the bank so she's not stuck in vault with power hungry werewolves.

Derek and Scott both nod along with her plan.

The wolves and vampire soon arrive at the abandoned bank and Marlo helps them get in before finding her way inside to also find the Argent girl inside as well.

"Allison?" Marlo whispers scaring the girl, "Marlo?" Allison questions.

The vampire walks up the teenage girl and they begin walking off into the bank even more, "Do you have a plan?" Marlo asks.

"Just trying to find something real" Allison says but not before being pushed up against the nearest wall by her guidance councillor—who warns both of them.

Marlo however rushes off before she can throw her inside the storage closet along with Allison.

Marlo looks around the corner noticing Deucalion waiting there for someone or something, "You don't need to hide Marlo, I know you're there" he says out loud.

She gasps as Miss Morell the school's guidance councillor walks off with the blind alpha.

She turns as she hears the fighting and knows immediately that it's Derek and Scott fighting Boyd and whoever the other person is.

She makes her way up to the entrance of the vault but stopping where she hears.

"Cora?" Derek asks, Marlo immediately takes a deep inhale thinking to herself Cora is alive? I thought she died in the fire all those years ago? She overhears the conversation, "Who?" Scott asks confused.

"Cora?" Derek asks again, "Derek, get out, get out now!" Cora says urgently.

Scott then feeling something his gut is wrong follows the room around noticing the mountain ash barrier that hasn't been activated yet and suddenly a light is being shined into the vault and Scott notices Miss Morell at the entrance—finishing the barrier now.

"No! No! Wait!" Scott says rushing forward only for Boyd and Cora to growl at them both, "You know her?" Scott asks.

"She's my sister! My younger sister." Derek says, "What the hell is she doing here?" Scott asks.

"Like I have a clue? I thought she was dead!" Derek says.

Allison and Marlo now step into the entrance way, "Look out!" Allison yells warning them.

Derek moves out of the way just in time but Scott doesn't and Boyd throws him into the vaults wall and continues leaving scratches on Scott's body due to his brutal blood hungry werewolf side.

Derek does his best at not to hurting Cora—but also trying not to get injured himself.

Both Marlo and Allison watch in horror not knowing what to do.

Boyd suddenly claws onto Scott's stomach and the teenager spits up blood having that run down the front of his body, "Alli, the mountain ash barrier!" Marlo says pointing to the barrier.

"No! Don't break the seal!" Derek yells at the two at the entrance way although both of them are worried about how the McCall boy is bleeding from the mouth.

Allison breaks the seal calling out for Boyd and Cora, "Boyd!" Marlo yells out now capturing the werewolf's attention.

Allison breaks the barrier and the wolves run free, running around free now doing god knows what.

Derek in all his rage rushes up to the two woman and goes to grab Allison harshly but Marlo steps in front of her in time—although they've had some differences.

Scott doesn't like how the male's handling the older woman, "Don't touch them!" Scott yells.

"What were you two thinking?" Derek asks angrily, "That we had to do something!" Allison yells out.

"They saved our lives" Scott says to Derek, "Yeah, and what do you think they're gonna do out there? Do you have any idea what you two just set free?" Derek yells.

"You want to blame me? Well I am not the one turning teenagers into killers" Allison yells back.

"No, no, that's just the rest of your family" Derek snarls, "I made mistakes, Gerard is not my fault" Allison then says.

"And what about your mother?" Derek asks, "What do you mean?" Allison asks, "Tell her Scott, Marlo" Derek says.

"What does he mean, Scott, Marlo? What does he mean?" Allison asks with tears in her eyes.

"Your mother injected me with poisonous things and tried killing me—it would've worked if it wasn't for Derek and Scott here" Marlo says softly to the stunned girl.

"Scott's story isn't mine to tell so I'll allow him to tell that part but yeah that's the reason Derek did what he did, he was protecting Scott and I" Marlo explains.

Derek walks off to get someone as Allison ended up mentioning a body, he didn't say anything to Marlo as he walked off.
