Brooke could feel herself become more anxious by the second. She couldn't hear anything that was happening and no one had come back and said anything to them. There was an uncomfortable silence that had fallen over the room as Brooke started wringing her fingers. Her head shoots up as gunshot is heard. A scream rips through the building as Noah jumps up.

"Scott! Stiles! What happened?" He yells

"Stiles!" Brooke yells. Her breathing becomes heavier as they get no response.

"Matt? Matt, listen to me-" Noah tries

"Shut- shut- shut up!" Matt yells, "Everybody shut the hell up! Now, get up, or I shoot her next!"

Seconds later, Scott stumbles in clutching his side. His shirt stained with blood as he leans up against the wall. Brooke goes wide eyed as Matt shoves Melissa in the cell and locks it.

"Please, he needs to see a doctor." Melissa cries

Matt tilts his head, "You think so?"

"Hey, hey, you listen to me!" Noah spits

"It's all right. I'm okay." Scott says

"No, honey, you're not okay." Melissa says

"It doesn't hurt, mom."

"Cause that's the adrenaline, okay?" Melissa says before turning to Matt, "Please, let me- let me just take a look at him, okay? I mean, I can help stop the bleeding."

Matt chuckles looking between Brooke and Scott, "They have no idea, do they?"

"Please. Let me just take a quick look. I-"

"Shut- shut- shut- shut up!" Matt yells, "Lady, if you keep talking, I'm gonna put the next bullet through his head."

"Okay. Okay."

"Back to the front, McCall." Matt says turning to him, "After you."

Scott looks to Melissa before looking down at Brooke. He nods indicating he was okay before walking out with Matt trailing behind him.

Brooke looks up as the lights shut off. A siren starts before rapid gunfire is heard. Brooke ducks down as windows shatter and glass flies in different rooms. Before long, the gunfire stops. Brooke sits up and looks around and lets out a breath of relief as Noah and Melissa are unharmed.

Noah steps up and immediately begins pulling on his cuff, "Ah, God-"

"Come on, come on, come on. Come on, come on, come on!" Melissa mumbles

Noah groans and stumbles back as the cuff is yanked out of the wall. Melissa lets out a sigh as Brooke looks toward the door.

Her eyes widen, "Dad, look out!"

Before he can turn, Matt hits him in the back of the head with his gun. Brooke gasps as her dad hits the floor unconscious.

"Matt? Matt, please, listen to me." Melissa pleads, "My son has been shot, and I've heard other gunfire, and I don't know what's happening, but can you please just let me see my son?"

"How totally clueless are you people?" Matt scoffs

Brooke looks over towards the door as someone growls. Matt turns as Derek stands by the door. Brooke looks to the second door as the kanima walks in. Derek throws the kanima into the desk giving Matt the opportunity to run out.

Derek tries running at it with a chair, but gets pushed away. The kanima uses the bars of the cell to kick Derek in his stomach sending him to the ground.

The kanima then climbs up the bars and hisses at Melissa. Brooke's heart speeding up as the woman backs into a corner. Scott then runs in and sinks his claws into its back and tosses it to the floor. The kanima hisses before running out. Derek quickly gets up and follows behind it.

"Oh, God, Scott? Scott, you okay?" Melissa asks, "Scott?"

Scott slowly sits up and turns to his mother. Melissa's face drops as Scott stands up. Scott looks to Brooke with his yellow eyes and sharp fangs.

"No!" Melissa cries as she backs away. Scott turns back to his mom before he runs out. Brooke turns to Melissa who lets out a sob as she sinks to the ground.
