Growing up in Beacon Hills, Wren Martin's life was as normal as any teenagers. With her sister Lydia, and her two best friends, Scott and Stiles by her side, everything was fine. That was until Stiles came up with the genius idea to...

Chapter Ninety-Nine ⚔ Broken Glass ⚔
"Where's Jackson." Wren heard Lydia's voice echo as Wren walked up to what seemed like a very detailed statue of her father. She went to touch him but the scenery quickly changed to inside the locker room where a very detailed statue of Jackson and Ethan stood.
Everything changed again and now she stood in Coach's office in front of a statue of Malia. It changes again and now she stood in the hallway in front of a statue of Derek. Finally everything changed again and this time she saw Scott, petrified into stone in the middle of the shipyard maze.
Wren suddenly shot up in bed, breathing heavily before she quickly grabbed the journal that Stiles gave her. She quickly wrote down what she saw before her door suddenly opened and Lydia walked into her room. "Did you see the same thing?" She asked and Wren nodded, "I think so."
⚔
"Scott!" Lydia called out as her and Wren walked into Scott's house, "Scotty!" Wren yelled and the two waited for a moment, not hearing anything making Wren sigh softly and turn to Lydia. That's when she noticed someone standing behind Lydia making her furrow her brows.
"What are you doing here?" She asked making Lydia turn around to see Peter standing there. "Looking for Malia and I stopped by your house but you weren't there. What are you doin' here?" Peter asked, "Looking for Scott. Obviously." Lydia said.
"Why?" Peter asked making Wren raise her eyebrows, "Why are you looking for Malia and I?" She asked and Peter took a deep breath before answering. "Parental concern." He said making her hum slightly, "You really are trying, huh?" Wren asked making him roll his eyes.
"Why didn't you just call Scott?" He asked and Wren raised her eyebrows, "Why didn't you call Malia or me?" She asked making him sigh. "This... we're not... this is... We're not getting very far with this conversation." Peter making Wren nod while Lydia sighed. "We can't reach Scott." Lydia said and Wren nodded while Peter sighs in a mix of relief and concern, "Well, I can't reach Malia, or anyone- there's reports that several cell phone towers in the area are down." He said and Lydia nodded slightly.
"Okay. That's definitely cause for concern." Lydia said and Peter sighed, "It's more than that." He said and Wren sighed softly when she realizes what he means. "Monroe and Gerard." She said and he nodded, "They're cutting us off from the outside." He said.
"And from each other." Lydia said and Peter nodded, "Which likely means that they've already started amassing troops on their side." Peter said and Wren looks at her father and her sister with a tiny smirk.
"Then we'd better find ours."
⚔
Wren, Lydia and Peter, still having no luck finding any of their friends and allies, have gathered in the exam room of the animal clinic to regroup. Lydia anxiously paces around the room, while Peter and Wren watched her, "They haven't been here." Peter said.
"Maybe we should go to the school." Lydia said and Peter sighed sharply, "The two of you never said why you were waiting for Scott." Peter said and Lydia sets her palms on the table and leans on it. "Are you sure you want to know?" Lydia asked and Peter raised his eyebrows, "Do I need to know?" He asked exasperatedly.
"Last night, I woke up saying two words... That may just be from a dream... or might be something else." Lydia said and Peter waits for a long moment for Lydia to elaborate, and when she doesn't, he scoffs impatiently. "What two words?" Peter asked while Wren stared down at the table in thought, "Where's Jackson?" She said making Lydia look at her.
"You did too?" Lydia asked and Wren shook her head, "No but last night I heard you say it in a dream." She said and Peter seems appalled by this revelation. "That is disturbing on multiple levels. What else?" He asked and both girls hesitated, which only serves to make Peter more impatient, "Girls! Don't hold back on me. I've never held back on either of you." He said making them both roll their eyes.
"I saw you... turned to stone." Wren said and Peter looks horrified as Lydia continues. "I was in a storage container. It was steel. There was a blue wall...I saw everyone." Lydia said and Wren nodded and sighed, "Even Derek and Ethan. All of you turned to stone." Wren said and Peter looks at them incredulously.
"Do either of you ever see anything remotely optimistic?" He asked and Wren pursed her lips and shook her head, "I honestly don't think that's possible." She said and Lydia sighed. "It's optimistic if you prevent it." She said and Wren and Peter sighed, knowing she has a good point, before stopping to think for a moment.
"Storage contain- Do you mean shipping container?" Peter asked and Wren furrowed her brows in thought before nodding, "Yeah. I was surrounded by them." She said and for the first time since they arrived at the clinic, Peter looks optimistic.
"I think I know where that is." Peter said and Lydia raised her eyebrows, "Then you know how to find Scott."
⚔
Deucalion and Scott, the latter of whom has his eyes shut, are facing off under the catwalk in the shipyard. Deucalion has the upper-hand and has gotten quite a few lashes in on Scott with his cane, causing Scott to groan in pain, particularly after the third blow, which hit him behind the knees and knocked him onto the ground making him groan in pain.
Malia, hating the sight of Scott being defeated by Deucalion, whispers to him under her breath, "Hit him!"
Scott's palms flatten against the concrete ground beneath him, and the vibrations he feels of Deucalion moving toward him allow him to identify where he is and dodge the next cane strike, barely missing getting hit in the face with it. In one fluid motion, Scott reaches out, grabs the cane in his hands, uses to pull himself to his feet as well as pulling Deucalion to him so he can flip him onto his back on the ground.
Scott stands over Deucalion, who chuckles, clearly impressed by his student's quick work, "You might just survive this." He said. Scott opens his eyes and reaches down to help Deucalion to his feet when suddenly, Wren, Lydia and Peter frantically run towards them.
"Scott! Scott!"
Scott frowns in concern as the three join them under the catwalk, "None of us are going to survive this!" Wren said and Scott and Malia, both alarmed by the Seer's statement, look at each other with concern. "What? Why? What are you guys doing here?" Scott asked with wide eyes.
"They're coming! Monroe and more- and they have heavy firepower." Peter said no one in the group has time to process this news before a hail of gunfire is shot toward them.
At least a half dozen of them hit Deucalion in the chest and abdomen. Deucalion's body falls face-first to the ground, and the others look over to find a wall of Hunters in front of them, many of which move to reveal that Monroe is standing behind them.
The army opens fire yet again, led by Monroe, who holds up a black handgun and aimed it at Scott.
