Stiles pressed the play button and we heard a man's voice.
"After entering the IP address, you will be connected through a Darknet portal to an untraceable bank. Once logged in, enter your account number to receive wire transfers. The IP address will deactivate with each transfer. You will be assigned a new IP address if you choose to continue down the list. Remember, visual confirmation is always required for payment."
I stopped it and we looked at each other.
"You ever made a wire transfer?" Stiles asked.
"Never had enough money." Scott said.
"So you didn't understand a word of that either?" Stiles asked us.
"I don't understand any of this." I sighed. "Why would someone use all this money just to kill us?"
"Someone wants you dead, guys. Badly." Stiles shrugged and Scott started to put the money back in the bag. "Whoa, whoa, what are you doing?"
"It's late. We've got the PSATs in the morning." Scott said as I yawned.
"No, I meant the money. $500,000. You know how much money that is?"
Scott looked at him. "It's 500,000—"
"It's half a million dollars. Scott." Stiles scoffed. "What are you doing to do, just slide it under your mattress?"
"I have to talk to Derek. The money's his." Scott said.
"You mean his and Peter's." I corrected.
Scott looked at Stiles and me. "What does that mean?"
"It means maybe we should proceed with caution." Stiles and I said at the same time.
Scott frowned, ready to make a comment about us being twins when he shook his head. "You don't think we should tell Derek?"
"No. No." Stiles said, getting up and sighing. "No, of course we have to tell him. I'm just... I'm just saying, some of that money's Peter's, right?"
"Yeah." Scott and I nodded.
"Right? Peter. Homicidal killer? Remember? You want to give $500,000 to him." Stiles said.
"So we should give Derek his money back. But not Peter?" Scott asked him.
"I didn't say that."
Scott and I looked at each other and I stood up, looking at my brother. "Stiles, what are you saying?"
Before he could say anything, we heard a knock on the door and Scott quickly pushed the bag with money under his bed, quickly getting up while the door opened and Stiles and I almost bumping into each other.
Malia looked at us. "We found Satomi's pack. Derek ad I. But they're dead."
"All of them?" Scott asked.
"All the ones we found."
"Then where's Derek?" Stiles asked.
"We also found Braeden there; she was shot so he took her to the hospital."

We were waiting to get in the classroom to start the PSATs. I was with Scott, Stiles, Kira, and Malia
"Where's Lydia?" Kira asked.
"She took it her freshman year." I said and Malia looked at me.
"Does that mean I could have taken it some other time?" she asked.
