Cat and Mouse

The three of them held the door closed. Daire began looking wildly for something to keep it shut.


" Lock it, lock it," Scott huffed.


            "Do I look like I have the key?" Stiles shouted back at him.


"Grab something," Scott shouted back


            " I'm looking" Daire replied scanning around them again.


" Anything Daire hurry up," Scott replied.


            Suddenly Stiles got his idea face, the one where he his entire face goes blank and you know that what he's planning wont end well. Though honestly Daire was very glad to see that face it meant they werent gonna end up dead right at this moment.


        Stiles stumbled, but reached up looking through the small window in the door. Daire followed his lead and got up. She and Scott looked out the window trying to see what Stiles was looking at. Down the cement stairs was the bolt cutter she used to get them inside. They figured out what his plan was. Grab the bolt cutter and place it through the doors handles. But there was one major flaw in his otherwise smart idea.


            The damn thing was outside with the Alpha.


Stiles grabbed the door handles; Scott placed his hand on his shoulders.


            " No" Scott said.


" Yes," Stiles says shrugging him off.


            " I'll do it," Daire told the boys. Slipping in between the doors. She quickly ran down the stairs and picked up the bolt cutter. She held it up just in case the Alpha came up to her, it could make a semi decent weapon. Suddenly Scott and Stiles were banging on the door and pointing behind her. Daire turned around to see the Alpha standing behind Stiles' jeep.


            It's red eyes glowing in the night, the same red eyes that seemed to bore into her soul at the video rental store, less then 15 feet away from her. Without a second thought Daire sprinted up the stairs and threw herself through the door. The boys slammed it shut and placed the bolt cutter through the handles.


Catching her breath Daire again joined them at the window only to see that the Alpha was gone.


            " Where the hell did it go?" she asked.


Stiles turned on the flashlight Scott had been holding earlier.


            " I don't know," Scott replied.


They all backed away from the metal doors.


            " That won't hold will it?" he asked.


" Nope."


        Slowly they turned to face the hallway. With the lights off it was pitch black. Making it look like they were in one of those horror movies, unexpectedly a distant howl rang out. The teens ran down the hall, entering the nearest open classroom. Scott and Stiles immediately reached for the teacher's desk. They began shoving it, aiming to create a blockade.


            " Stop, the door's not gonna keep it out" Daire told them.


" I know," Scott replied.


            " It's your boss," Stiles said suddenly.


Scott freaked out, " what?"


            " Deaton, the Alpha, your boss," Stiles pointed out.


" What? No," Scott replied.


            " Yes, murdering psycho werewolf," Stiles basically whispered shouted.


" It can't be," Scott said.


            " Oh, come on," Stiles exclaimed. " He disappears and then ten minutes later that thing shows up to throw Derek like twenty feet through the air. Not really convenient timing Scott"


" It's not him," Scott defended.


            " He killed Derek," Stiles said


" Derek's not dead." Daire told them, she's seen werewolves survive worse than that, she can only hope that Derek is one of them.


            " Blood spurted out of his mouth okay. That doesn't really qualify as a minor injury. He's dead and we're next." Stiles said.


" Derek. Is. Not. Dead." Daire pointed out. Stiles gave her an evil glare but she shrugged it off.


            " What do we do?" Scott asked.


" We get to my jeep. We get out of here, and you quit your job" Stiles sighed.


            Scott didn't even open his mouth. Stiles took the flashlight, making his way to the window. Scott followed, both boys prepared to open it.


" You do realize they don't open, the school's climate controlled" she told them.


            " We break it," Scott said.


" Which will make a lot of noise," Daire pointed out.


            " Then," Scott looked across the parking lot. " We run really fast."


" Yeah cuz that will work." The girl muttered, looking out at the parking lot, something caught her eye. " Stiles, what's wrong with your car?" The blue metal of the hood was pushed back.


            " What do you mean? Nothings wrong," Stiles said.


" It's bent," she told him.


            " What, like dented?" he panicked, moving next to Scott.


Scott shook his head, " No, she means bent."


            " What the hell happened?" Stiles asked.


Well they got their answer; only it was hurled at them. They threw themselves to the ground, shattered window rained on them. The object that broke the window skidded to a stop.


            " That's my battery," Stiles grumbled, shining a light on it. He began to get up. Scott dragged him back down.


" We have to move," Stiles said.


            "He could be right outside," Scott whispered worriedly.


" Scott, he IS right outside, hence the flying battery" Daire whispered shouted at him.


            " Just let me take a look," Scott said, clambering to his feet slowly. She sighed but followed his lead.


They looked out the window. No Alpha.


            " Move now?" Stiles asked.


" Move now," Scott said.


            They slowly got up, walking out of the room and into the hallway.


" This way," Scott said, beginning to walk down the hall.


            " No, no," Stiles said, yanking him back. " Somewhere without windows."


" I know I've only been here for a short time, but guys there are windows everywhere!" Daire exclaimed.


            " Okay, somewhere with LESS windows," Stiles said.


The three of them stood there silently thinking of somewhere to hide.


            Scott looked up, " The locker room,"


" Yeah," Stiles agreed, they headed down in that direction.


            While walking down the dark creepy hallway, they would look behind them just to make sure they weren't being stalked to their deaths. Cuz that would be very unpleasant, Daire knew she complained that chemistry would be the death of her but dying in SCHOOL that is just scary on a whole other level.


            Eventually they made it to the locker room. Scott shut the door behind them, as they walked in.


            " Call your dad," Scott told Stiles.


" And tell him what?" Stiles asked, running the flashlight over everything.


            " Anything. There's a gas leak, a fire, whatever," Scott shrugged. " If that thing sees the parking lot filled with cop cars, it'll take off."


" What if it doesn't?" Stiles asked. " What if it goes completely terminator and killd every cop in sight? Including my dad!"


            " They have guns," Scott pointed out.


" The only thing that could even injure it enough to take off would be silver arrows maybe silver bullets with wolfsbane. Guns with normal bullets, would probably just make it angrier" Daire told them.


            " Then we have to... we have to," Scott trailed off. " We have to find a way out. We have to just run for it."


" But there's nothing around the school for at least a mile," Stiles sighed.


            " What about Derek's car?" Scott asked suddenly.


" When I said we should steal Derek's Camero I wasn't serious," The Argent girl said


            " It could work," Stiles replied.


" Yeah. We go outside, get the keys off his body, ugh," Scott shivered. " And then take his car."


            " Yeah, whatever," Stiles told him, reaching for the door handle. Scott caught his wrist.


" What now?" Daire asked.


            " I think I heard something," Scott whispered back.


" Like what?" Stiles whisper yelled.


They didn't get a reply, Scott began looking around the three of them backing away. Scott grabbed the flashlight, turning it off. " Hide," he said.


            Stiles opened up a locker.


" No, Stiles," Scott groaned but Stiles was already in a locker.


            Scott wedged himself into a locker and Daire fit perfectly into hers, guess it can be beneficial being short. From the corner of the room, she could hear the door open. Daire held her breath, gripping her knife. If this was the Alpha, she had to at least give her friends a running start. A dark silhouette appeared right outside of her locker. It continued walking past. Scott let out a breath and the figure stopped and opened the locker. Thankfully it was just the janitor, but when he saw Scott he screamed. Stiles and Daire opened their lockers.


            " Shh, shh, quiet," Stiles told the man.


" Quiet my ass! What the hell are you trying to do? Kill me?" he yelled. " All three of you, out!"


            "Alright just listen for half a second, okay?" Stiles said.


" Not okay!" the janitor exclaimed. " Get the hell out of here, right now!"


            He began shoving them, Scott and Stiles telling him he had to listen. Daire tried to hide her knife from him, don't need to get in more trouble than she was already. He shoved them into the hall.


" Just one second to explain!" Stiles begged the man.


            " Just shut up and go!" The janitor ordered. And then he was yanked back, and the door was slammed. A growl erupted and the man was shoved against the door, his blood all over the windows. His screams echoed through the hall. Daire began to jiggle the doorknob; they couldn't just let him die!


Stiles pulled her back, " No, stop," he took her hand and pulled her down the hall.


            "What do we do now?" Daire asked.


" Just keep running!" Stiles yelled back. She began to pick up the pace.


            Daire was right this is a game of cat and mouse.


 ☾


        They continued running until they met a dead end, but there was a door. The three of them ran to it, hands out in front to push it open. Only it wouldn't budge. There was a loud clang noise from behind it.


            " What the hell?" Stiles asked.


Scott shoved his head between the small space that we could open. " It's a dumpster,"


            " He pushed it in front of the door, to lock us in" Stiles stated.


" That's just fan-damn-tastic," Daire grumbled.


            Stiles began shoving at the door, attempting to open it. It didn't move.


" Stiles stop!" Scott yelled, dragging him back.


            " It's not worth it," she told him. " Even if we could get it open, what's keeping the Alpha from killing us once were outside?"


" I'm not dying here, I'm not dying at school!" Stiles exclaimed agitated. they began walking back.


            "We're not going to die," Scott told him.


" God, what is it doing? What does it want?" Stiles asked.


            Scott was as freaked out as Stiles, " Me. Derek says it's stronger with a pack."


" Oh, great, a psychotic werewolf who's into teamwork. That's beautiful," Stiles said sarcastically.


            " It may want Scott, but you have to admit it isn't just purely acting on animal instinct. There's more to it than that" Daire responded looking out the window. Something was out there. " Guys.." she trailed off pointing to the window, their eyes widened once they saw him. The Alpha began running on the top of the school, trying to catch up with the teens. The three of them began sprinting down the hallway.


            The window behind us shattered, " Don't look back!" Daire shouted. The boys turned opening a door. She ran behind them, jumping down the stairs. Remember when she said that being short was great while hiding in a locker? Being chased down stairs trying not to die, while being 5'3" not so great.  Scott and Stiles were way ahead of her as they raced down another hallway.


            Again they entered a room full of lockers. The boys ran behind a big group of them. Daire ran to join them when the Alpha jumped in front of her. She quickly threw her knife, It let out a feral growl or grunt of pain; Daire wasn't really paying any attention. She got up and ran in the other direction hoping that the boys were right behind her and she was right.


            " We have to do something," Daire muttered breathlessly.


" Like what?" Scott asked.


            " Kill it, hurt it, put mental anguish on it, something," Stiles said.


" Well I lost my only knife I had on me by stabbing him" Daire replied.


            Another growl was heard from in front of us, Stiles reached his hand into his pocket.


" No, what are you doing?" Scott asked Stiles keys jingled in his pocket.


            " Shh," he replied pulling them out of his pocket. He tossed them and pushed Scott and Daire out of the way. The Alpha took his bait and ran into the supply closed. Stiles quickly pushed the door closed, pressing all his weight against it.


            " The desk," he yelled, " Come on the desk!"


Scott and Daire shoved the desk against the door. The Alpha pushed back against the door but it kept shut, for now.


        Daire left the boys and walked into the other room in hopes of finding her knife. Using her phone as a flash light, the light caught the redish color of her now blood stained knife. Quickly she grabbed it, right before Scott and Stiles come running in.


             " It's in the ceiling," Scott panted. Above them, the ceiling panels were caving in. The Alpha was too heavy for the ceiling to support it. Which meant one thing.


They had to run for their lives again.
