Chapter Sixty-Seven
🎭 Strange Frequencies 🎭

"Do you know him?" Theo asked as they stood around the body in the animal clinic. "His name's Josh. He was a junior." Scott said and Amara sighed before pulling the sheep back over the body. "Which one did it? The one with the cane?" Scott asked and Stiles and Theo glanced at each other, "Yeah." Theo said.

"What are we going to do with him? We can't just set the alarm and leave, that's how Tracy disappeared." Stiles asked and no one answered right away, "Someone's got to stay here with him... I can't cause I'm pretty sure I have something to do with them." Amara said making them look at her confused.

"It's complicated."

"I'll do it." Theo said making them look over at him, "It's not like I had a big Saturday night planned." Theo said and then Amara phone went off making her pull it out to see a text from Liam. "What is it?" Stiles asked and she looked up, "Lydia told me what she saw and heard earlier so I texted Liam to test and see if Hayden is a chimera. Whatever Lydia heard was right... We got another Chimera."

🎭

"Hayden...? It's Scott. I know that you're scared, but we just... We want to help." Scott asked after knocking on his bathroom door, "I can hear her heart beating- she's really freaked out. What happened?" Scott asked turning to Liam. "She was okay when we got here. I went to text you for two seconds and she locked herself in."

"Why?" Stiles asked and Liam shrugged, "I don't know." He said. "She's definitely a Chimera?" Scott asked and Liam nodded, "She said she heard a voice saying "Your condition improves"." Liam said making them all glance at each other and sigh.

"Okay, that's unsettling..." Stiles said before stepping up to the door, "Hayden? This is Stiles. Your sister works for my dad down at the station? Look, just open the door. You can trust us." Stiles said but Hayden didn't say anything or open the door making him step back.

"We just need to tell you the truth, Hayden... And that kind of thing is usually better face-to-face." Scott said but yet again Hayden didn't do anything making them sigh before Amara stepped up.

"Hayden, it's Amara. We can explain everything to you if you come out. It's fine if you don't want to talk, or if you're not even ready to believe us. But we need to know that you're okay in there." Amara said and then looked back at the guys. A second later the door unlocks and opens a bit.

Amara slowly pushed it open to reveal Hayden standing there. But her eyes were glowing a bright yellow, her teeth and turned into canines and her hands where now sporting a set of claws.

"I believe you..."

Jordan pulled up to the school and got out as Malia, Amara and Lydia walked over to them. "We're betting our lives on these?" Malia asked after grabbing one of the jammers, "I think we're betting Hayden's life on them." Lydia said as Amara handed her one.

"Yeah, well, I'm glad I brought my gun." Parrish said before shutting the trunk door. Lydia and Amara walked into the locker room and Amara started setting one of the jammers up.

"Is it me, or is Liam not aware of the second part of the plan?" Lydia whispered as they walked up to Scott, "I'm still not sure if there's going to be a second part..." He said. "Or if it's going to work." Lydia said and Scott nodded while Amara sighed. "If he finds out he's going a be really angry." She said and Scott sighed, "I know..."

🎭

"Scott." Amara said as she and Lydia walked up to Scott while Liam and Hayden talked. "We were thinking... Since we can't use our phones, we can't check in on Stiles and Theo." Lydia said making realization cross over Scott's face, "I didn't even think about that." He said and Amara nodded.

"Me, neither. So, we're standing here, waiting for guys in masks and breathing tubes to show up. But who- or what- are Stiles and Theo waiting for?" Amara said and Scott sighed and shook his head slightly.

A little while later Lydia and Amara sat on one of the benches together while Scott paced back and forth and Liam and  Hayden sat against some lockers. Hayden was falling asleep on Liam's shoulder as he glanced around before noticing Scott's duffel bag.

He slowly got up, being careful not to wake up Hayden before walking over to the bag and opening it. The sound of chains rattling made Scott, Amara and Lydia look over to see Liam pulling out some chains from the bag. "What were you going to do with these?" Liam asked as he looked back at Scott who shook his bead slightly, "Brought them just in case." He said and Liam furrowed his brows.

"In case of what?" He asked and Lydia turned to him, "In case we have a chance to catch one of them." She said making Liam look at them in shock. "If we can't make the school a fortress, then maybe we can make it a trap." Scott explained and Liam squinted at him.

"They're coming for her- doesn't that mean she's the bait?" Liam asked and Amara sighed and stood up, "Liam, we brought her here to protect her." She said and he nodded and slammed the chains down. "And now she's bait." He said and Hayden looked at them as she stood up, "Am I?" She asked.

"No, no one's bait. But we can't be bodyguards to everyone every night." Scott asked and Liam raided his eyebrows, "Then why aren't we talking to Stiles' dad? Why aren't we doing something better than hiding in a school?" He asked and Scott shook his head slightly.

"Because we still don't know anything about them or what they want, okay? They're winning, and we don't even know what the game is." Scott asked and Liam gestured to the jammer as he walked up to Scott. "What if they come in here and those things don't work? What if you have an asthma attack again? What are we gonna do?" Liam asked and Scott sighed softly, "I don't know."

"This plan sucks!" Liam yelled and Scott raised his eyebrows, "You got a better one? Kids are dying, and she's next! So, somebody has to do something. Somebody has to save everyone. So somebody's got to be the bait!" Scott said in frustration making Amara sigh and pinch the bridge of her nose.

"Scott... Promise me you'll do everything you can to save her. Scott- promise." Liam said in a slight whisper and Scott nodded, "I'll do everything I can. I promise." He said.

"Guys..." Hayden said making them look over at her as she dug around her bag, "I think I might need a little help right now. I forgot my pills. I have a bottle in my locker. I can get them, but-" She said but Scott cut her off. "I'll get them. What's your combination?" Scott asked.

A few seconds later Scott, Lydia and Amara walked out to the hall, "Hurry. We'll keep watch." Amara said and Scott nodded before walking down the hall. Lydia and Amara stood out in the hall for a few minutes before hearing something down the hall. "What was that?" Lydia asked as Amara walked ahead slightly, "Scott?" She called out but got no response.

"Stay here." Amara said making Lydia's eyes widen, "What?" Lydia asked as she grabbed Amara's arm making Amara look at her. "What of it's the Dread Doctor's?" Lydia asked and Amara nodded, "That's what I'm gonna go see. If you see something, scream and I'll come running." Amara said and Lydia sighed softly before nodding and letting her go.

"I'll be fine." Amara said and smiled at her before walking down the hall and turning the corner. "Scott?" Amara called out again but all she got in response was the sound of footsteps making her follow the sound until she turned another corner. She froze when she almost ran into someone, but it wasnt the almost running into someone that made her freeze.

"Allison?" Amara asked in a slight whisper, "You scared the crap out of me. I've been looking all over for you." Allison said as she grabbed Amara's arms making Amara look at her shocked and with slightly glossy eyes. "You're not real..." She whispered making Allison furrow her brows.

"What are you talking about?" Allison asked and Amara shook her head as she slowly stepped away from him, "You're not real... You're dead." She whispered and all of the sudden a sword ripped through her back to Amara stomach making her gasp.

She stumbled back into the lockers as blood poured down her body while she slowly slid down the locker, lying in a puddle of her blood. Which wasn't actually there, neither was the sword as the Dread Doctors walked past her.

Minutes later Scott and Mason suddenly ran into the locker room where Amara, Malia and Lydia stood. "They're gone... Hayden and Liam are gone."
