Soulmate Of A True Alpha
Scene 26

Me: Try your first name

Lydia: My name?

Me: The ashes were for you, why shouldn’t the list be for you?

Stiles: If that’s the case, your grandmother doesn’t know how to give gifts.

We give him a dark look, but I smile softly. The poor guy’s been trying to play it down for the last hour, without much success. We try to find the third part of the black list, but of course Lorraine hasn’t left Lydia the key. Lydia tries her first name but it doesn’t work.

Me : Try Maddie

It doesn’t work.

Stiles: Your mum’s name.

Doesn’t work either.

Me: Don’t you two have any activities?

Lydia: We were reading

Stiles: What book?

Lydia: The Little Mermaid

She types “Little Mermaid” but it doesn’t work.

Neither does “Siren”.

Lydia: We read it every night. I was obsessed with Ariel. My parents thought I was annoying because I was always talking about her, but she… Found her adorable.

She typed “Ariel” and it worked! A dozen names appear on the screen

Stiles: Do you recognise any names?

Lydia: Only my grandmother’s

Suddenly images of people appear before my eyes. People hanging or with a bullet in their head. They’re all in Eichen housse and there’s paper with their names on it hanging from their arms or feet. Everything returned to normal and I threw myself on the screen to see the names of the people. They’re exactly the same as the ones I saw. What’s happening to me? I start running around to get my bag and jacket but Stiles grabs me and holds my shoulders.

Stiles: Stop! What’s going on?

Me: People …. They’re… They’re not targets ce.. They’re people who… committed suicide at Eichen housse… We gotta go!

Lydia: How do you know?

Me: I saw her… I saw all these dead people at Eichen housse! We gotta go!

I run for the door and the other two follow me. Lydia gets in the car and hugs me to calm me down.

Stiles: You’re gonna have a panic attack, Hannah. You need to calm down. We’ll go to Eichen housse and get some more information, don’t worry.

I nod against his chest and take off. Stiles gets behind the wheel and Lydia gets in the back with me. I check my messages to pass the time.

[Scott: I’m in charge of the party tonight…] [Me: And I’m going to Eichen housse!] [Scott: How’s that? ] [Me: Too long to explain. Courage for tonight! ] [Scott: Are you coming or not? To the party] [Me: I’ll see. See ya!] [Good luck, sis!]

I’m closing my phone. We’re here.

Lydia: What are we gonna do about the files? We’re not getting in without permission, are we?

Stiles: We don’t have to, Brunskie’s not above taking bribes…

I sigh. I was hoping never to see that one again.

In Brunskie’s office

Stiles, Lydia and I: 1000$?!!?

Brunskie: When you’re the one with the key, you can afford to set the price.

Stiles: For a tiny little key that will open a tiny little room with tiny little files?

Brunskie: Do you want this key or not?

The three of us blow and take out our wallets.

Me: I’ve got $100

Lydia: I’ve got $500

Stiles: I’ve got nothing.

Brunskie: That’ll do.

I reluctantly give my money to this scumbag and he taunts us by breathing it in.

Me: Can we go or not?!!?

Brunskie: Of course, dear customer!

He takes us to the archive room and we look at the files.

Stiles: Lydia?

Lydia: Yes?

Stiles: Why did you write another name on the list?

Me: What?

I look over his shoulder

Me: Why did you write Stiles’ name?

Lydia: I didn’t write his first name.

Stiles: Well, it’s your handwriting.

The three of us look at the list.

Did you miss me?

The three of us turn around, Brunskie bars the door and turns towards us. I stand in front of Stiles and Lydia to protect them but Brunskie throws a knife at my chest and I fall to the ground helplessly.

A few minutes later

Brunskie has tied us to a beam in the room. I’ve still got the knife inside me.

Lydia: Why are you doing this?

Brunskie: You see, Lydia, some of the people in this asylum don’t need treatment, they need to be set free.

Me: You have… Killed them

I cry with rage and pain at the same time. Brunskie comes towards me, with a syringe full of product in his hand.

Brunskie: I helped that person. Like Lorraine and soon you and your friends.

He puts the syringe to my neck and I close my eyes. How can I be so helpless?!!?

Stiles: Don’t touch him! Heyy! I swear I’m gonna kill you, a*****e! Get off of her!

Suddenly, I feel something else. Fear of someone else… Scott! He’s in danger! I struggle and manage to push Brunskie off with my feet and he flies further away. How can I go and help Scott ?!!? Even if I tried, I’d never get there in time! I open my eyes again and I’m no longer in Eichen housse… I’m at… At school ? At the party?!!?

Hannah?

I turn around. It’s Mason, Liam’s friend.

Mason! Where’s Scott?

Mason: A security guard took him and Liam!

A security guard? Must be a hit man…

Mason: Oh, my God, Hannah! You’re hurt!

I look down at my chest. I had forgotten the expensive… I rip it off and the wound closes automatically.

Mason: Co…how did you do that?!!?

Me: We don’t have time for…

The music increases and I feel weak. It was his tear they used on Scott! We have to stop him!

Me: Come and help me!

We run to the generator and rip out the cable. The music stops and I run inside. Derek and a girl called Braeden are fighting the “security guards”. I run to my brother and give him a hug.

Me: Are you all right?

He nods and holds me but I remember Stiles and Lydia. I get up

Me: I hope it works…

I teleport to the file room. Brunskie is about to inject Lydia and Stiles is passed out. I run towards Brunskie and push him aside. He comes back towards me ready to attack me but I transform and he backs off.

Me: Are you sure you want to do this?

He pulls out a second knife from behind his back and throws it at me, but this time I catch it and throw it at him. The blade goes into his heart and he falls over from the shock. I go over to Stiles and heal his head. Brunskie must have hit him or something. He gets up and I untie him before taking him in my arms and kissing him.

Stiles: I was so scared something would happen to you.

I smile and k**s him again and go to untie Lydia, who is crying and completely in shock.

He killed Meredith… He controlled her completely…

I hold her and we hear Brunskie laughing evilly behind us.

Brunskie: You think I was controlling her… She was controlling me…

Oh no… Meredith comes out from behind a hiding place and turns her head towards us

Meredith: He wasn’t on my list… But he was a bad person…

So Meredith is… The benefactor…
