Things were starting to get complicated. And while complicated was how Derek's life tended to be, for the last ten years at least, this was a new kind of complicated. The Argent girl wasn't really an issue to stay with them. She was Scott and Isaac's friend and Derek could look past the occasional resemblance to Kate knowing how far the girl had come.
Erica's arrival was probably poorly timed, Derek was still waiting for Isaac to show up, pretty sure that the inability to contact him but his stuff remaining where it was indicated the kid had gotten himself in trouble with the latest invasion of dinosaurs rather than Isaac being sent back. Allison would be fine without a sitter. Derek could leave and come back to check on the progress, see if Isaac had come back yet.
Navigating through the town was a bit of a pain, with his senses all over the place thanks to the blood and residual death that lingered, but he could ignore it for the sake of getting to the hotel, or what was left of it, and checking on Erica. Since he still recalled so very clearly, the weight of her dead body in his arms.
"Erica," Hopping up the steps to the hotel, Derek suffered the stench of decay just to catch her scent and reassure himself that this was definitely her.
