As the morning became the evening Maisie and Stiles were getting nervous, they had seen Clint leave the living room earlier and had asked Phill where he was going. He had told the pair that Clint had gone to order some food for everyone. Which didn't make much sense since he wouldn't have known what food they liked and disliked.
Not long later a knock at the door startled the two already-scared teens, Stiles immediately pushed himself in front of Maisie hiding her from any oncoming danger. He felt as if this was his entire fault and the reason why they were running away with everything that happened involving Void and Donovan. Even though Stiles was controlled by the Nogitsune. He and Maisie were always blamed by the pack for the deaths.
Her death.
Phill and Clint glanced nervously at each other knowing that they lied about the food order. Which meant it could only be one person at the door and if she came all this way after looking into Beacon Hills then she must have found something serious.
The apartment front door opens, revealing the red-headed woman who had a bored expression on her face. After reading the files she now understood why Clint or Phill hadn't asked for her to just send the files over for them to read themselves. But with what she now knows from the reports she had to admit her judgment of the teens was now blindsided because of what the files assume.
Maisie's eyes widen realizes who the woman was, unconsciously she grabs Stiles hand hoping it would calm both their nerves. Feeling her best friend laces their fingers together she swallows thickly before looking at Phill and Clint in betrayal.
"You...you...called...them." Stiles stutters out in shock that his uncle would call the people who would most likely arrest both of them without hesitation.
Phill cursed under his breath, now regretting getting Natasha involved and by the look on her face whatever was in the files she read had caused her to become cautious around his nephew and Maisie.
"She isn't here with Shield Stiles." Clint tries to explain "It's obvious something has happened in Beacon Hills and we needed to know..." he gets interrupted but Masie.
"..If we're dangerous..." the girl whispers with a single tear rolling down her face. She had thought that maybe running away from that town. Her and Stiles could have started fresh with new normal life but by the looks of things, that was never going to happen.
Natasha still had a bored expression on her face, but it didn't mean she wasn't feeling anything for the two kids who haven't stopped shaking since she entered the room. Even though someone had stated accusations about the pair, she couldn't help but think they were wrong.
Very wrong.
"No" Phill quickly shakes his head at Maisie's statement "If anyone was looking for either of you."
Stiles titls his head in confusion "Looking for us?" he questions squeezing his best friends hand hoping to provide comfort.
"Like missing person reports?" Natasha elaborates "Your parents could have the cops looking for you both."
Maisie and Stiles's eyes widen in panic at the redhead's words. "We are so screwed."
"Stiles. Maisie. We know something has happened back home and if you don't want to talk about it we understand. If you want to stay here, you are more than welcome too but I need to know why you don't want me to call your parents." Phill stresses to the teens who look at each other as if they were silently communicating with one another before turning back to Phill.
"If we tell you why, you won't make us go back right?" Stiles questions carefully, hoping that this wasn't another trick.
"I promise. I will even sign for guardianship of both of you."
"Really?" Maisie nibbles on her bottom lip, debating her options in her head.
"Of course."
"Uh...you remember when we talked about the psych ward we were admitted too." Stiles hesitantly starts to explain. talking about what Noah and Melissa had planned was probably the easier thing to say but it still wasn't something either of them wanted to remember.
"Sure."
"They were going to send us back there without telling us." Maisie finishes looking at the ground, she had always known her mother and brother never liked her, but it pained her to know they would have taken her back to the place she was assaulted and tortured.
Natasha couldn't help but blurt out in shock "They were going to send you back to Eichen house." Phill and Clint were now even more worried for Maisie and Stiles because of their friend's outburst knowing that it takes a lot for her emotions to show.
"How do you..." Maisie trails off stunned that Natasha somehow knew the name of that horrible place.
The woman sighs "I'm going to be honest, from the time I've been here. I can already see you both are physically and mentally drained, sleep deprived probably due to the nightmare you are most likely having. Lying to you right now won't do anyone any good as you clearly have trust issues and if you found out I, Phill or Clint had lied to yous it would end up with you guys running again."
"So, the truth is I look through the files about Beacon Hills and the deaths that have occurred there recently." Natasha finishes looking directly at the kids.
"You...know then." Stiles says a little scared of what the assassin would do from knowing part of the truth.
"Yes" Natasha says simply "But I don't believe that what has been written is even close to the truth."
"You're the first one to say that." Stiles mutters
"to not blame us."
Masses purses her lips before rolling her sleves up a little to show her bare skin and the scares that cover her arms.
"Let's just say these are not just from all the times we've been kidnapped."
"KIDNAPPED?"
Masies awkwardly smiles "Did I say kidnapped? No, I don't think I did. You must have heard wrong."
"You've been kidnapped. More than once." Clint deadpans.
Stiles shrugs his shoulders "We kind of lost count after a while, it was becoming too frequent."
"What on earth has been going on in that town?" Phill asks more to himself, he hasn't even been told anything really, and yet the few words his nephew and Maisie had told him were making him question if leaving Stiles alone all this time was the right idea.
