Scenes with Kira 77
Kira
How did you get his transfer form?
[exasperated] You didn't break into the Administration office...
No, I did not break into the Administration office!
[Kira, Scott, and Malia look at him skeptically]
Okay, I might have broken into the Administration office...
[Outside the school, the McCall Pack and Mason are discussing their current problem]
Tracy wasn't just having trouble sleeping, it was a real disorder. It was night terrors.
Well, now she's the night terror. Especially since no one can find her.
Okay, I know we're all tired and miserable...
[He looks over at Mason, whose eyes are wide in excitement as he listens to them all talk]
Oh, I'm sorry, this is all just so mind-blowing! [He looks over at Kira] You're a Kitsune! I don't even know what that is!
Kira
[bashfully] I'm still learning.
Liam, we said you could tell him, not invite him to the inner circle.
[excitedly] Uh, I'm in the inner circle?
LSLiam & Stiles
[simultaneously] No!
[Lydia and Kira are searching Tracy's room for clues]
Kira
Okay, so what are we looking for?
I'm not sure... I'm mostly just following a feeling.
Kira
[alarmed] Your feelings usually lead to dead bodies.
[shrugs] Well, let me know if you find one.
[Deaton has just arrived at the McCall house, where he has interrupted Scott and Kira kissing in the living room]
[Deaton starts pulling out jars that have werewolf claws, kanima scales, and harpy eagle talons in them from his bag]
A werewolf with the talons of an eagle-- possibly a shapeshifter known in Eastern mythology as a garuda. Tracy's claws-- the unmistakable claws of a werewolf. But, a werewolf who also bears the venom and the scales of a kanima.
Kira
What do you even call that?
Personally, I call it "terrifying." But, at the moment, I'm more interested in how Tracy was able to get across the mountain ash.
Kira
[confused] I thought no supernatural can do that.
As did I. So, if Tracy was able to cross the mountain ash, and no supernatural can do that...
Tracy's not a supernatural.
Exactly. If she wasn't born, and she wasn't bitten, she had to have been made.
Someone is trying to make supernatural creatures with non-supernatural means. And, whoever they are, they're somehow managing to blur the lines between science and the supernatural.
Kira
What are we supposed to do?
Same thing you've always done. Protect your friends. Protect each other.
[worriedly] So, what about someone like Tracy?
Kira
How scared should we be?
I've lived in the world of the supernatural a long time. But, I'm still a doctor. Still a man of science. Something like this happens, it rattles the foundation of everything you believe. Something like this shakes you to the core.
The rules-- the rules have changed.
[Melissa has called Scott and Kira to the hospital, where Scott has taken the pain of a teenage boy named Corey who was in excruciating pain as the result of an injury]
Let me see it. Let me see his arm.
[Melissa removes the bandage on Corey's arm, revealing a huge, weeping wound that is producing a brown slimy substance]
The lab says scorpion venom.
I know. But, that's not the weirdest part... Because a sting this bad means that he should have been dead ten hours ago, and the scorpion that stung him would have been ten feet tall.
Kira
[horrified] Please tell me that doesn't mean there's a giant scorpion running around Beacon Hills...
[weakly] Lucas... It was Lucas.
[Inside the club, an exasperated Kira is talking to Scott while they look for Lucas]
Kira
You did it again! You did something that changed everything, and you don't even realize you did it, but you did.
[Scott, Kira, Lydia, and Stiles have just made it to Eichen House's lobby, where they approach an orderly behind the table and begin emptying their pockets into containers. The orderly sees Kira's katana-belt around her waist and frowns]
OOrderly
Please remove your belt and place it into the container.
Kira
[nervously] I kind of need the belt. I mean, it's crucial to the outfit.
OOrderly
[unamused] Please remove your belt, which patients will attempt to take from you and use to strangle themselves or others...
Kira
[alarmed] Right. Got it.
[Scott has just rescued himself and Kira by getting them out of Eichen house and has just collapsed onto the ground as a result of Kira shocking him repeatedly. Kira awakens and looks weak as well as she crawls over to him]
Kira
At the club... At the club, you... you said...
I remember. And I meant it.
[After none of them had any flashbacks after they had read the Dread Doctors book, they go to school the next morning. Scott, Kira, and Stiles are walking down the hallway when the electricity suddenly flickers. Stiles and Scott look at Kira suspiciously, and her eyes widen in alarm]
Kira
That wasn't me. I swear!
[sighs] We keep an eye on each other today, okay?
Yes, and keep an eye out for eight other potentially homicidal chimeras.
Kira
And keep an eye out for the Dread Doctors.
[anxiously] I'm starting to see the appeal of a third eye...
[Mason has just found Kira in the library, where she looks frustrated as she looks at the Dread Doctor book in her hands. He sits down next to her and smiles]
Not into sci-fi? That's the book, isn't it? I thought you guys were supposed to finish reading it last night.
Kira
[embarrassed] Yeah, I kind of... haven't... yet. I don't know what's wrong with me. I mean, I can't... I can barely read it.
[excitedly] Okay, uh... This is gonna sound weird, but do you speak Japanese?
Kira
No. I'm also half-Korean, and I don't speak Korean. And I'm pushing a C-average in English.
Okay, well, I've been doing some reading on kitsunes...
Kira
[confused] Why?
Kira
Oh. Right.
Do you know why people in Japan answer the phone "moshi moshi?"
Kira
"Moshi" means "hello."
Yeah, but there's a reason why you have to say it twice on the phone. Because, according to Japanese folklore, fox spirits have difficulty with language. And the way that you prove you're not a fox? When you answer the phone, you say "moshi" twice. The important part is "moshi moshi" confuses kitsunes because it's a language trick. So is the book-- you know, it's just one long language trick.
Kira
That's why I can't read it?
It's affecting the fox part of you, confusing it.
[Suddenly, the electricity flickers, and Mason gives her a look]
Kira
I swear that wasn't me.
Kira
What about me?
[hesitates] Um, well, you'll come to the school with us. We're going to need all the help that we can get, so bring your belt.
Kira
[embarrassed] Actually, I think I lost it again...
Oh, well, I'll help you find it! You think you left it here?
Kira
[gently] Scott, it's okay. Last time I was around telluric currents, things didn't go so well.
Yeah, well, this is the school. You're there every day. It's not the same.
Kira
I made it worse by being at Eichen. They used me to get inside. I think I need to figure out what's going on with be before I try helping anyone else. Just be careful, okay? If this works tonight, what happens tomorrow? Are you gonna keep trying to find places to hide her?
No. If this works tonight, we're gonna catch one of them.
[The Dread Doctors' psychoactive vapor and powers are causing everyone to have hallucinations. Scott is currently hallucinating that Kira has just stabbed him through the chest with her magic katana before choking him with Roxie's leash]
Kira
[in a distorted voice] You know who I am!
[struggling] Kira! Kira, stop!
Kira
I am the Messenger of Death!
