《MY BABYSITTER'S A VAMPIRE. ❪ Malia Tate ❫ ✓》ten

The pack was attempting on rescuing Lydia from Eichen House. Willow stayed with Malia and Kira. They were on a time crunch. Willow was proud of Malia for being nice to Kira and offering encouragement when she thought she wouldn't be able to control her powers.
Malia, Willow, and Kira were trapped in the morgue. Lightning surrounded Kira, crackling dangerously as it bounced from each metal object in the room. Kira anxiously clenched her fists to try to stop it.
She was suddenly overwhelmed as numerous bolts of foxfire burst out of her body, weakening her in the process. Willow grabbed Malia by the waist and pulled them down behind an autopsy table to avoid getting shocked. The two slowly peeked out of the autopsy table to see Kira looking horrified by what was happening to her.
"You have to get out of here," Kira urgently pleaded.
"That's not exactly how friendship works, Kira!" Willow exclaimed. "We're all in this together, okay? I am not leaving you like this."
Kira closed her eyes and leaned her forehead against the metal door. "I should've stayed in the desert with the Skinwalkers. I can't control this! I'm never going to be able to," she whimpered.
"Kira, it worked - you saw it work. You controlled it enough to cause the brownout! You can stop it," Malia whispered.
Kira scrunched her face up in concentration as she tried to push down her Kitsune instincts, but the power was too much for her. She opened her eyes to reveal her orange-gold eyes.
Kira was panicking. "I can't! Guys, go!"
She fell onto her knees as more rounds of foxfire bolts shot out of her body.
Willow and Malia duck back down once more. The bolts continued to shoot out until it seemed to run out of power. Willow and Malia peeked at her again.

Willow looked at Malia and gulped before turning her attention to the Kitsune. "Kira, are you okay?"
Kira was unconscious on the floor. The two girls rushed over to her. They shouted her name repeatedly, hoping she would wake up.
Malia tried to touch Kira's pulse, but Willow grabbed her wrist. Malia stared at her in confusion, thinking that she didn't care about Kira.
"You'll fry yourself. Kira's too powerful and rogue right now," Willow explained. "She could literally give you a heart attack - and not in the ways I give you one."
Malia nodded and licked her lips, shuffling away from Kira. "Bad joke, by the way," she mumbled.
"Yeah, whatever, I know you like my tongue," Willow wistfully muttered back.
"Good call," Josh said. "Electricity's still coming off of her. I can feel it from here. I can help her."
Willow didn't bother looking at Malia. "You're with Theo. Why would we help you?"
Josh sighed. "Because I need your help...with him."
He stepped to the side, revealing Corey. His face, chest, arms, and abdomen were charred black and burned from Jordan's Hellhound fire. Corey was whimpering loudly, clutching his chest. Josh and Malia laid Corey on the autopsy table, while Kira was still unconscious on the floor.
"Why isn't he healing?" Josh asked worriedly.
"Maybe he can't. Maybe it's too much. Or maybe it's the pain," Malia stammered.
"He's going to die, isn't he?" Josh asked.
"His heartbeat's getting slower," Willow said. "Can you hear the slow beating of his pulse and the blood running through his veins? I can smell death."
Josh gulped at her vivid description. He had gotten to know Corey over the past few weeks, and he didn't want him to die. "What do we do? You can't heal him, can you?" Josh asked Malia.

"No, but I can take his pain. It could help. It might even get him to start healing," Malia replied.
"Then, do it!" he ushered.
Malia nodded her head in Kira's direction. "You first."
Kira's body suddenly released more bolts of foxfire, and Malia and Josh both reflexively duck - Malia pulling Willow down.
"Thanks," Willow breathed.
Malia smiled weakly. "No problem."
Corey groaned and writhed around in pain on the exam table, and Josh looked at Malia. "Are you going to do something, or not?" he asked frantically.
"When you help her," Malia said. "I don't trust you."
"I don't trust you, either," he replied.
"I'm so glad we got that established. Now, just help each other before Kira kills us and Corey dies!" Willow shouted.
The two agreed to rescue Kira and Josh at the same time so that no tricks could be played on each other. Josh looked up at Malia and nodded as she reached out to wraps her fingers around Corey's injured arm.
"All right, here we go," Malia said.
Malia winced in pain as he took Corey's pain away. Meanwhile, Josh gripped Kira's arm and absorbed her electrical energy, causing him to groan at how much power she had. Corey got up to his feet with the help of Josh, and Kira was conscious.
After a moment, Corey and Josh looked at the girls curiously. "Anyone know how we're supposed to get out of here?"
"The whole place is on lockdown," Willow said. "It's not just locked," she hinted. "But, we have a plan B. Mason's going to get us out of here. He's got the blueprints of the building, and he has the full map of Eichen's electrical system. All he has to do is get into the transformer shed behind the building."
Corey and Josh shared a concerned look. Josh seemed skeptical and Corey was worried.
"Don't worry. Mason knows exactly what he's doing," Malia reassured. "I hope."
