《She-Wolf》Relics Part ii
Advertisement
Lydia and Brett are in the living room of Sheriff's house looking for Stiles' relics to prove he exists. Next to the TV, there are pictures of Sheriff and Claudia together and Lydia looks at them before being interrupted by Claudia.
"Something I can do to help?" Claudia asks.
"No. Thank you Mrs Stilinski but I think we can handle it," Brett answers.
"Well, good luck. I'll leave you to it,"
Claudia walks away. Lydia and Brett share a confused look. Lydia then turns around, looks at the hallway and has a flashback of before when she talked to the old woman. Lydia slowly walks down the hallway and finds the exact spot the old woman was standing and she hears air escaping from behind the wallpaper.
"Lydia?" Brett calls out to her. She tries to touch the wall but then a man appears and scares her.
"You didn't see it, didn't you?" The man asks. His words echo and Lydia looks at him confused.
"See what?" Lydia asks him.
"It's right in front of your face." Trent's words echo again and Lydia turns to the wall and once she touches it, she turns her attention back to the man but she becomes shocked when she sees he disappeared just like the old woman did in her last visit to the house. Lydia sighs in shock and grabs a piece of wallpaper and starts peeling it but someone grabs her. It's Claudia.
"What are you doing?!" Claudia yells.
"You're hurting me," Lydia says. Brett slightly forces Claudia to let go of Lydia before raising an eyebrow at her. Lydia shakes her head as a way to tell him it's not the time. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that,"
"I think that's something we can agree on," Claudia shoots back. Lydia and Brett quickly leave the house with another glance at Claudia.

Argent is in the tunnels and when he hears something, he turns around and has his rifle pointed but it turns out to be Malia. Argent puts his rifle down and sighs in relief.

"Thanks for coming," Argent says.
"You need my help?" Malia asks suspicious.
"I need a babysitter,"
"I'm not the babysitting type. Coyotes eat their young," Malia says and starts walking away.
"You could have killed me, last night. Or worst, Melissa. But I can help you." Malia looks confused at Chris' offer to help her gain control and turns around.
"Aren't you the one who shot me?"
"I come from a family of hunters. It's our job to deal with situations that an ordinary person..."
"Job stress?"
"You know that bloodlust you felt? I've seen that look before. When I was your age, I saw someone control and slaughter an innocent. And I did nothing,"
"I'm not that werewolf,"
"It wasn't a werewolf. It was a hunter. She made excuses. And invented a convincing case... that lethal force was necessary but it wasn't. If I had done something that night... maybe my sister wouldn't be the monster she is today,"
"Kate,"
"Animals lose control. You're not just an animal, Malia. You're also human. You stay like that when you get involved,"
Before they could talk further, a sound from inside the Bunker interrupts them. Nathan had accidentally triggered one of Argent's sonic spikes and they arrive just in time t see Reed grab it and turn it off. As Nathan is about to shoot something back he notices Argent is back, together with Malia leaving Nathan confused by her presence in there.
"What is she doing here?" Nathan asks.
"We asked her to come. And as I recall we asked you not to touch anything else," Reed answers annoyed.
"Look. How much longer do we have to be down here?" Nathan asks bored.
"As long as it takes," Argent replies. He prepares his rifle, making Malia change her mind]
"Okay, I'll stay. You've shot enough people for one day,"

At the girls' locker room, Gwen is getting dressed to play at the lacrosse game. Hayden and Liz arrive there and Gwen immediately disagrees on being protetced.

"I'm not waiting at a bunker to get taken," She explains. Hayden is frustrated at how unwary Gwen is being about the consequences her actions could cause and tries to reason with her again.
"You have no idea what you're up against. Last night, it took all of us to stop one of them. If you go out there, they'll take you too," Hayden points out.
"Hayden," Liz calls her attention and both girls turn to her as she looks Gwen up and down before sighing. "Yo shouldn't bother trying to save someone who doesn't wanna be saved. Look, Gwen, those things took someone important to all of us but you don't see me trying to run at them because I know that I can't save them from that side. So what you're going to do next is your choice. You can stay with us and we can keep you save or you can go and throw your life away,"
~~~
Scott, Liam, Mason and Corey arrive at school to get the players.
"So, what's the plan?" Liam asks
"Convince the three players that playing tonight is a bad idea," Scott replies and then realises something. "You read everything there is to know about the Ghost Riders"
"Yeah," Mason replies.
"And you're the only one of us that figured anything out. Have you come across anything that can stop them?"
"Not yet but I can try,"
"Do that,"
"I can do this. I can do this,"
Scott, Corey and Liam arrive at the boys' locker room and come across with the last players that get to the field. Coach Finstock hands Scott his lacrosse helmet in anger.
"You're late, McCall! Why aren't you people dressed? Get your asses moving. Everyone, on, the field! Hustle! Hustle! HUSTLE!" Coach yells at them. Coach leaves to get to the field and Liam feels unconvinced they'll put everyone safe from the Ghost Riders.
"We'll never get them in the bunker now," Liam points out.
"Get dressed," Scott orders.
"Because there's only one way to keep them safe," Liam realises.
"Play the game,"
In her mother's office, Lydia is behind the computer with Brett standing over her. The door opens making both look up to see Natalie who just figured out what her daughter did in Claudia's house.
"Were you tearing Claudia Stilinski's wallpaper off her wall?" Natalie asks.
"No," Both of them reply at the same time. They look at each other before looking back at Natalie who is giving them a pointed look. "Maybe... yes,"
"She's worried about your mental health, both of you" Natalie clarifies.
"Yeah, well, at this point I'm worried about our mental health if we don't figure out who Stiles and Selene are," Brett comments.
"I saw someone in the hallway. Someone that Mrs Stilinski and Brett didn't see," Lydia explains.
"If they doesn't see ghosts. That's because they're not Banshees," Natalie points out.
"That's fair," Brett remarks.
"I think he was trying to help me find something Stiles left behind. A relic," Lydia explains.
"Did you?" Natalie asks.
"No. She sent us away before we could find anything," Brett answers.
"That's probably because you were tearing her wallpaper," Natalie comments.
"We already came to that conclusion," Brett replies. Natalie looks at her computer and sees that Lydia found Claudia's student information. Her birth date: 11/23, her phone number: 214-555-0176 and her address: 1662 Candler Road, NE. Natalie realizes that her daughter has doubts of Claudia.
"Oh, honey. I've known Claudia since high school. I trust her," Natalie explains. Lydia sighs in exasperation that her mother doesn't understand her side. "Do you two know what s confirmation bias is?"
"The tendency to interpret information in a way to confirms an existing preconception," They answer at the same time knowing where this is going.
"Yes! It's a biased perspective. You're looking for proof to support what you believe is already true. Because you want it to be true,"
"Stiles and Selene are real. I know it," Lydia says.
"Do you believe there's a possibility they're not?" Natalie asks. The look on their faces is all the answers she need and she removes her glasses. "Okay. Tell me everything you know. I'll be your unbiased perspective,"
