THE WICKED HYBRID sits in the tunnels awaiting for Void Stiles's return.

Only to see him returning with a very frightened strawberry blonde.

"What the hell is this?" the wicked snarls knowing this wasn't apart of the plan.

"She was vulnerable so I took it as an opportunity to kidnap her" Void replies looking at his mastermind afraid.

The wicked just sighs and shrugs, "Okay, make sure she doesn't get away from you, I have some things to sort out before the others come looking for Lydia here, prepare for the plan" the wicked smirks.

Void nods and follows the limping Lydia down the dark and tight tunnel.

"Do whatever you wish until they show up" the wicked demands with a raise of her voice.

─────────────────

ALLISON AND KIRA WATCH while Deaton puts his fingers down the werewolves throats getting the dead fly out of their systems.

Once the last fly is dropped onto the boys locker rooms flooring signalling the man's done with getting the bugs out of the boys bodies.

"Are they okay now?" Allison asks worriedly beside Isaac, "I hope so, the part that's worrisome is that this was most likely just a distraction for what was happening to Stiles" Deaton answers.

"There's really two of them now? How's that even possible?" Kira asks.

"But how did the other one just take Lydia?" Allison wonders, "We turned around and they were gone, so was her car" Deaton explains.

"So, no one notices him just kidnapping her right out of the house?" Aiden asks the older male.

"Most of us were concentrated on the bizarre sight of a creature materializing from out of the floor" Deaton irritably replies looking at the twin before the others.

"Hold on, how are you so sure which Stiles is which and where is the wicked?" Kira asks.

"That's what they're trying to figure out now, the wicked hasn't been seen though" Deaton explains.

Isaac, Allison, Kira and the twins look at the ground afraid of where the wicked could be.

Melissa takes Stiles up into Scott's bedroom to run some tests on him shining the bright light into his eyes checking his pupils.

The woman puts the light beside them on the bedside table before looking at her watch to measure Stiles's heartbeat.

She puts her hand towards the teens fearfully inhaling and exhaling,
Stiles notices the hesitation and moves his wrist closer towards the nurse.

Melissa grabs onto his wrist gently, Stiles looks at the woman and then the roof understanding why she's so afraid of him.

Melissa watches her watch, "Well, medically, you seem okay, you're definitely a real person" Melissa chuckles as Stiles exhales from nerves.

"Okay, so I'm real but am I the real me? What about Marlo?" Stiles asks.

Melissa looks at him sadly hearing footsteps walking into the bedroom.

Stiles sits up looking at the person who's just entered the room—that being Scott.

"Is she here?" Stiles asks as Scott nods before saying yeah.

"Okay, let's do this" Stiles says getting up off the bed slowly due to being weak, noticing the stares from both McCall's.

"Guys, we have to do this, this could also help Marlo into coming back to herself as well" Stiles states.

Melissa nods as does Scott as he helps his best friend off the bed and going downstairs to where Noshiko is waiting for them, "Do you recognise me?" Noshiko asks the pale boy.

Who looks back at Scott getting out of his arms and nodding saying he's okay with walking towards the woman.

Kira slams the door entering the living room of the household, "Stop" Kira exclaims coming up beside her mother.

"It's okay, I'm the one who asked her to come" Stiles explains to his friend.

"You're the one who's going to get stabbed with swords" Kira states before looking at her mother, "Mom, don't do this to him" Kira says.

"It's already done" Noshiko states as the Oni come from the shadows from behind Stiles who looks behind him feeling their presence.

Melissa gasps as another one comes out from the darkness, grabbing a hold of Stiles like they've done with the previous people who received marks.

The Oni finish with Stiles, he falls to the ground grunting, "Look behind his ear" Noshiko says.

Kira, Scott and Melissa rush towards the boy revealing the self mark on the back of his ear.

"It worked" Scott states relieved, "So, I'm actually me?" Stiles asks shakily getting helped off the floor.

"More you than the Nogitsune and the Wicked" Noshiko states.

"Can the Oni find them?" Stiles asks scared for his older sister who's possessed.

"Tomorrow night, it's too close to dawn now" Noshiko explains looking outside at the soon to be sun coming up.

Stiles scrunches his face up annoyed, "Can they kill them?" Stiles wonders.

"It depends on how strong they are, and considering the wicked killed three people, I'm guessing she's pretty strong" Noshiko says.

Stiles, Scott and the others look at Kira's mother with worried looks, "What about Lydia? Why would he take her? Would the wicked hybrid want her?" Scott wonders.

"He would only take her for an advantage, the wicked might not of known" Noshiko reveals.

"You mean her power?" Scott asks, "The power of a Banshee" Noshiko nods.

Lydia sits alone in the dark and creepy tunnel, a short distance from the wicked and void, looking around the walls as she hears the screams of the spirits from many years ago.

"Can you hear them?" Void asks walking towards the strawberry blonde.

"Louder than usual, isn't it? Well, that's because a lot of bad things happened down here" Void states walking closer towards the frightened girl.

Who holds onto the wall moving away from Void, "What are the voices telling you? Are they saying that Stiles is dying?" Void asks playing with his fingers locked together behind his back.

Lydia moves closer and closer towards the end of the tunnel, "He is, you know?" Void says in a sing like voice.

"He's dying" the wicked voice is heard from the other end of the runner echoing through the dark space.

Lydia turns a corner might scared than she was before knowing the wicked's been here the whole time.

"Then what do you need me for? You think I can tell you something?" Lydia screams out coming to the end of the tunnel where a gate is keeping her from escaping.

Both dark spirits chuckle evilly as Void was waiting for the wicked to meet him in the tunnel, she smirks at her accomplice before walking towards Lydia.

"Oh, I know you can" the wicked says as her voice echoes, "I'm not telling you anything" Lydia screams holding tightly onto the metal gate, unaware of the wicked and void directly behind her.

"You won't have to" Void snarls smirking, "You'll be screaming" the wicked states flashing her veins under her eyes and fangs.

The strawberry blonde screams using her banshee wail awakening the wicked hybrids true power.

Void Marlo gasps at the electricity from the wail flows throughout her body, she laughs as Void watches in amazement.

༻✦༺

Kira and her mother leave the McCall's household after Scott suggests they should go to the sheriff station to see Sheriff Stilinski, to let the father know one of his kids are okay.

Stiles accepts wanting to see his father almost immediately, Noah Stilinski sits at his office desk with his fist leaning against his head looking out to the window.

Parrish looks at Riley who's sitting at his desk, both deputies nod at one another before knocking on the office door.

"Go home, Sheriff, it anything comes up about Marlo or Stiles, you know I'd call you in a second, so would deputy Marshall here" Parrish states.

Riley nods, "I'm not going anywhere" Noah states, "Well, neither am I, since my shift doesn't end until dawn" Parrish states, "You need a coffee?" Riley asks.

Noah looks around the office, "Aw, you're a good guy, Parrish, that's what they all said at your previous station—though, no one could tell me exactly why you left" Stilinski states before looking at Riley.

"You're a good man too Marshall" Stilinski nods at both deputies, Riley nods before leaving the officer in respect for his boss.

Parrish stays behind as his in the middle of a conversation with him, "Maybe I needed a change? I don't really know, I guess, I kind of felt drawn here, and I knew there were openings" Parrish shrugs.

"Did you know why there were openings?" Stilinski incredulously asks, "The statistics don't worry me" Parrish states, "They worry me" Stilinski states.

"Well, then maybe you need to get some sleep, go home, Sheriff" Parrish suggests before leaving the sheriff alone.

Noah sighs getting up from his desk and grabbing his coat searching for his keys.

"Ah, if I could just find my keys" Stilinski sighs, "In your coffee cup" Stiles says.

Noah turns around quickly recognising that anywhere, "You always drop them in your empty cup" Stiles states pointing at the desk, Stilinski looks at his son in wonder before Scott nods.

Stilinski drops his coat and rushes towards Stiles hugging him tightly.

"Oh" Stiles chuckles, "Hey dad" Stiles mumbles into his father's shoulder, once the two finish the hug.

Stilinski turns to where Scott walked a minute ago, grabbing the man's key out of his empty cup.

"Is it over?" Stilinski asks looking around for his daughter.

"Wait, where's Marlo?" Stilinski asks, Stiles looks at his dad sadly as Scott looks up from holding the keychain tightly.

"Not yet, she's still the one in charge, we'll get her back, I promise" Scott states towards the Sheriff who sighs sadly, before nodding.

Chris helps Derek get the fly to leave his system, Derek goes to leave the argents apartment he stops the elevator door.

"You had a gun pointed at my head, you could've pulled the trigger, why didn't you?" Derek asks the hunter.

"Because you're not my enemy anymore, Derek and I'm not yours" Chris states.

"The truth is, that we should be out there looking for them right now, especially if they can do something like this" Derek states.

"I'm not sure that's actually going to be necessary" Chris says, "Why not?" Derek asks.

"Because if they can do something like this" Chris says, Derek figures out what Chris is saying.

"They'll be stronger than ever" Derek states sadly knowing he could lose Marlo permanently, "Which means they'll be coming for us" Chris says.

Derek lets the elevator doors go ready to leave, he makes eye contact with Chris nodding softly.

Chris stops the elevator doors again as Derek looks at the man confused.

"I'm sorry about your unborn baby Derek, I didn't know James and Kate did that to Marlo" Chris says with sympathy in his tone.

"I shouldn't have told you that, Marlo would hate me" Derek mumbles sadly.

"No she wouldn't, she loves you Derek" Chris states, "Which is why we're going to get her back, because you love her too" Chris states, Derek nods sadly.

"Yeah I do" Derek says looking at Chris again, "Prepare yourself for the worst" Chris says letting the elevator door go so Derek is able to leave.

The werewolf sighs to himself knowing what Chris just said might mean they'll have to kill Marlo Stilinski, he knows that would be what she would want.

Sheriff Stilinski rushes back into his office where Stiles and Scott are sitting after explaining what's going on with Lydia and others.

"We got an APB out on Lydia's car every unit on the road is looking for her" Noah states.

"Isn't there anything else that we could do?" Scott asks, "At this hour? No, not really" Noah sighs answering the alpha and close friend of Lydia Martin.

"They took her for a reason, Dad, look, if we can figure out the 'why' then we'll figure out the 'where'" Stiles states looking at his father.

"Okay, what would a Wicked hybrid and Nogitsune need with a Banshee?" Stilinski asks.

"I don't know, Lydia's pretty good at finding dead bodies, maybe he or the wicked need to find a body?" Stiles shrugs.

"Scott, you know more about this than all of us" Stilinski says, "Me?" Scott says confused.

"You said you heard the whole story from Noshiko?" Stilinski says.

"Yeah, but that happened during World War II, like seventy years ago" Scott states.

Stiles listens to what both his father and Scott are saying frowning, "Wait, what did you say?" Stiles asks.

"Noshiko told me about the internment camp" Scott begins to say only for Stiles to cut him off.

"No, before that, you said "the whole story"" Stiles says, "Yeah, what is it?" Scott wonders curiously.

"There's a girl at Eichen House, her name's Meredith, I think she might be able to help" Stiles states remembering what he heard standing near the phone at Eichen House.

Stilinski instructs on of his deputies to get straight onto Eichen House about this patient.

"Sheriff? Meredith Walker" Parrish says beside Riley who's standing beside his deputy friend.

"She's still there?" Stilinski asks, "Yeah, but they moved her to the closed unit" Riley states earning a confused glance from Scott and Stiles.

"Why?" Stiles asks, "They said 'behavioural issues'" Parrish explains.

"What issues?" Stiles asks frowning, "She wouldn't stop screaming" Riley states.

Stiles, Scott, Stilinski and Riley share the same glance, before Scott looks at Stiles.

Sheriff Stilinski rushes off in the direction of Eichen House to see Meredith, only for her to take the guards keys and escape the place.

Ethan and Aiden run in the preserve of Beacon Hills looking for anything Wicked Hybrid or Void Stiles related but stop after hearing the sound of a round being chambered and ready to shoot.

Leaving the former alphas running and being shot at, they both don't make it far without being hit with bullets.

Noticing the black substance coming from his wounds Ethan looks at his twin who's completely unconscious bleeding from the side of the ear.

Ethan tries to move closer but unfortunately cannot due to more gunfire being aimed towards them.

Isaac and Allison stand beside a gate as Isaac uses his werewolf strength to break the lock on the fence.

Dropping the chain and smirking at Allison, opening the fence and walking into the parking lot.

Allison quickly notices it is in fact Lydia's car and Isaac says he can smell the scent and it's strong of emotional.

Leaving the huntress confused and asking if it's fear which the werewolf denies confirming its anger he can sense.

Both teens look around the car trying to find something out of the ordinary but no luck outside of the vehicle.

They get in the car talking about the night they hooked up and Allison of course questioning if it was in fact Isaac or the fly.

They remember the night in details, Allison looks at the car window in confusion and curiosity.

Exhaling onto the window using the warmth from her mouth to reveal the message on the glass.

Don't find me

Allison looks at her fling with a scared look worried for her strawberry blonde best friend.

Meredith the girl from Eichen House finds her way into the high school and sits at one of the tables in coaches class, earning confused looks from many classmates.

Danny gets the coaches attention saying they have an unexpected guest and Meredith looks at all of the stares.

Once Stiles and Scott return back to Scott's house, Stiles tries to take a nap on the couch, only to be startled awake by a nightmare.

Capturing Scott's attention straight away rushing towards his best friend who's tripping over his own feet, "Hey, you okay?" Scott asks catching Stiles.

"What happened? How long was I out?" Stiles asks, "Just a couple hours, you should sit down" Scott says worriedly, "Where's my dad?" Stiles wonders.

"He's at Eichen House, questioning everyone, looking for Meredith, I promised him I wouldn't let you out of my sight" Scott states, "Okay, what about the others?" Stiles asks nervously.

"Allison, Isaac, the twins, they're all looking for Lydia" Scott says.

Stiles sighs deeply, "It's starting to feel like we're waiting for a ransom call" Stiles says.

"We'll find her" Scott says, Stiles adjusts himself in his sweater, grabbing the coat on the couches armrest.

Scott watches and twitches his eyes, "You all right?" Scott asks.

"Yeah. I don't know why, I just can't seem to get warm" Stiles says shakily.

"Maybe you should sit down, take it easy" Scott says going to grab Stiles hand only for black lines to come out of them.

"You're in pain" Scott says shocked and full of sympathy, "It's not that bad just more like a dull ache" Stiles answers.

"Where?" Scott asks, "Sort of everywhere" Stiles states.

Scott puts his hand on Stiles only for him to pull it out of his grasp, "Dude, you're freezing" Scott says shocked at how cold his best friend is.

Stiles sits on the couch fidgeting trying to distract himself from the pain.

"Tell me the truth, how much does it really hurt?" Scott asks, Stiles shakes and looks at his best friend, Scott's phone vibrates from his pocket.

Scott pulls his phone out, "It's Kira" Scott says.

Stiles nods to answer the phone clapping his hands, "Hey, what's up?" Scott asks answering the phone call.

"She's here in Coach's class and you need to get here now, too, like, right now"

Kira says looking inside the classroom where coach is flicking his fingers trying to capture Meredith's attention.

Scott looks at Stiles's who's looking at him already, "Meredith's at the school" Scott states as they leave the house driving to the high school.

Ethan tries to carry his twin brother but being injured himself it's difficult, they both full with grunts.

Ethan looks around scared he might not be able to get his brother the help he needs or even himself—until two muscular arms help Ethan up from the ground and grab onto Aiden's weakened body.

"Run" Derek yells carrying Aiden as him and Ethan run in the opposite direction as more gunfire is being let off towards the running werewolves.

Kira notices the nurses from Eichen arriving at the high school and tries to talk to Coach so they can't take her but due to being new he doesn't know her.

Only to notice the nurse walking towards them—someone he went to high school with and was a bully towards him and other high school students.

Allison and Chris have a father, daughter moment in the basement of their apartment building that involves Allison graduating.

Meaning she can make her own bullets or arrows which ever she prefers with the mould the argent family uses.

Lydia goes down the staircase still held prisoner by both the wicked and Void gasping and crying as she's terrified.

"They'll find me, my friends are going to find me" Lydia states.

"You think so? I myself was kind of wondering what they're doing right now" the wicked says looking at void beside her smirking.

Sharing the same thoughts with her accomplice, "What useless lead they're chasing?"

Scott and Stiles push through the doors of the high school looking for Kira, trying to save Meredith and ask her some questions

"I wonder if maybe some of them have bigger problems to deal with right now?" Void asks chuckling alongside the wicked.

Derek looks behind him to make sure no one with guns are following them as Ethan holds onto a tree for support, Derek continues carrying Aiden along in the preserve woods.

"Are they really spending every minute looking for you or are they waiting for nightfall?" the wicked says.

"Focused on some hopeless gesture to pass the time?" Void Stiles says

Chris and Allison go over what to do with making bullets with the argent mould they own.

Allison watches the instructions from her father showing interest

Lydia turns around to face them, "What do you want?" Lydia asks looking at the wicked.

"More" the wicked snarls lifting herself off the steps as does Void.

"More what?" Lydia asks, "The trickster stories are all about food, Lydia, the Coyote, the Hybrid, the Raven, the Fox, they're all hungry, I'm the same" Void says.

The wicked takes footsteps down the steps leading to the banshee, "I just crave something a little different, I eat what you feel" the wicked states.

"And she's insatiable" Void says getting up closer to Lydia who's shaking with fear.

Unaware Marlo is currently fighting to make her way to the surface and break the curse that's possessing her.

Coach saves Meredith from being tased by Brunski, using the taser on Brunski for breaking the bullying policy in the school.

H then screams out to Scott, Stiles and Kira to the girl out of the school away from all the nurses who want to send her back to Eichen House when she could be of a help to Lydia and others.

Stiles helps the girl run away from the nurse outside towards his jeep, jumping in the vehicle Kira says her goodbyes before rushing off somewhere doing her own thing.

Scott and Stiles turn their heads towards the banshee, "Okay, where's Lydia?" Stiles asks.

Meredith looks at the two boys confused, "Who's Lydia?" Meredith asks.

Stiles and Scott look at each other knowing this is going to be a lot more complicated than they thought.

Allison sits on the bench beside her father's who currently pouring the silver substance into a the moulding pot, before sitting it on the desk Allison is currently staring at.

"Remember, you can always start over, I was a bit of a perfectionist about it, myself—I always wanted the seal to look just right" Chris says softly explains.

"How many did you make?" Allison asks, "Six but I used them all, only at close range, though despite some other legends, silver's not really as accurate as lead" Chris states.

"Dad, wait I think I should use my own mould" Allison suggests which Chris gives her a confused look, "You have a bullet mould?" Chris asks.

"No, not a bullet, an arrowhead, the bow is my weapon, so, I should make a silver arrowhead" Allison states.

Chris smiles at his daughter and kisses her forehead.

"Dad—if something happens" Allison begins to say, "Hey, hey, you don't need to worry about me" Chris interrupts, "Well, yeah, I didn't get to say anything to Mom" Allison says sadly.

"You didn't need to say anything and I'm going to be around a long time, I promise" Chris states.

"Well, then take it as a reminder, maybe you don't need to hear it, but I need to know that I said it, I love you, I'm proud of you—uh, I'm proud of us" Allison says looking at her father.

Who leans forwards kissing her on the forehead once more, Allison chuckles as Chris leaves his daughter to do her own thing with the moulding of her arrowhead.

༻✦༺

Scott rushes into his house followed by Stiles and Meredith, Scott immediately notices the presence of his father which confuses him, "What are you doing here?" Scott asks.

"I could ask you the same thing" Rafael says, "Free period, we're doing a group study" Stiles states.

"Who's she?" Rafael asks, "She's my girlfriend" Stiles says wrapping his arms around Meredith who looks at him in disgust and confusion.

"You're not my type" Meredith states, "Well, obviously, we have a lot to talk about, we should maybe take this upstairs?" Stiles says.

"He's my type" Meredith states looking at Isaac who looks shocked, "Okay, Isaac, you can come, too" Stiles says.

"Uh" Isaac says standing up and following Stiles and Meredith upstairs, "Hey, Dad? I'll explain all of this later" Scott asks.

"I don't care that you're not in school, I know your grades are fine, all I want to do is talk" Rafael states looking at his son.

"Now's really not a good time" Scott says, "Scott, we need to talk" Rafael demands which earns a look from Scott.

Upstairs Stiles and Isaac lead Meredith into Scott's room explaining things to her about Lydia, "Lydia? You mean, the red-haired girl" Meredith asks.

"Yes, yes, good progress, now, all you got to do is tell us where she is" Stiles states looking at the girl sitting on the bed, "Okay, Okay, if she tells me" Meredith says.

"If she tells you? Can you ask her?" Isaac asks standing beside Stiles, "I already did" Meredith smiles, "Perfect, perfect, what did she say?" Stiles asks.

"She says she doesn't want to be found" Meredith states, "That's good, too" Stiles says punching his fists together, "Okay" Isaac whispers looking at the doorway waiting for Scott.

Downstairs Scott sits with his father annoyed that his father what's to do this now, "Dad, can't we do this tomorrow?" Scott asks.

"That's actually something I've been saying for a long time, come here, you see this? This indent in the floor?" Rafael asks as Scott looks at the floor confused.

"That was from your head, the night before I moved out, your mother and I were fighting, you came out of your room, I grabbed you by the wrist, you pulled back and you fell, we watched you tumble down those stairs, you were out for probably twenty seconds, when you came to, you didn't remember a thing, your mom told me to be out by the morning—that was the last time I ever had a drink and that's why I left" Rafael explains to his son, Scott looks to the ground.

༻✦༺

Aiden eventually comes to properly from being carried by Derek, "Where are we?" Aiden asks coughing, "It's a coyote den, stay quiet" Derek whispers.

Coming closer to the twins from the entrance, "Did you see the shooter? Do you know who it is?" Aiden asks, "No, I was a little busy" Derek says sarcastically.

"Who else did you two piss off?" Derek snaps, "We pissed off everyone, it was only a matter of time before someone caught up to us" Ethan says blood seeping down from his mouth like Aiden.

"Well, the bullets had wolfsbane in them, so if I don't get you two out of here soon, the poison is going to spread" Derek states, standing up getting ready to leave.

"Stay quiet, I'll be back" Derek says leaving the den to lookout for a safe way to get the twins out alive.

Isaac and Stiles whisper from the side of Meredith who's staring into space.

"I'm just saying" Isaac says suggesting torture, "Isaac, we're not going to torture her" Stiles states.

"I meant scare her" Isaac says, "We're not going to psychologically torture her, either" Stiles interrupts, "Fine" Isaac says.

"How about this, you said she hears things, right?" Isaac asks, "Yeah" Stiles replies.

"Doesn't that mean she's like Lydia? A Banshee?" Isaac asks.

Both Stiles and Isaac look at the girl sitting on the bed flinching and twitching her eyes like she's talking to someone or they're talking to her.

Downstairs Scott decides once and for all he's gonna explain things to his father.

"Okay, Dad, let me show you something, see the edge of this window sill? When I got my first skateboard, I slid right into it, broke my collarbone; this used to be glass until I fell on top of it trying to catch a lacrosse ball from Stiles, I got three stitches in my cheek, this house is full of accidents, the stairs? Maybe it was an accident, maybe it was worse, but, I healed, I don't need your apology, so, see you at graduation, or whenever you decide to show up again" Scott snarls at his father.

Walking away up the stairs towards where Stiles, Isaac and Meredith are.

Upstairs Stiles and Isaac try and get Meredith to tell them where Lydia is.

"Okay, just try to focus on the sounds around you" Stiles says, "On what you're hearing" Isaac says.

"Just focus on the silence" Stiles says, "Listen to the silence" Isaac repeats.

"Focusing on the silence" Stiles says, "Listening to the" Isaac begins saying.

"Okay, will you just let me handle this, Isaac? Please? I just, I have more experience with Banshees" Stiles interjects, "Yeah, and mental patients" Isaac mutters.

Stiles looks at Isaac offended, "Isn't anyone going to get that?" Meredith asks.

"Get what?" Stiles asks confused, "The phone" Meredith answers.

"What phone?" Stiles asks, "The phone" Isaac says pointing towards Stiles's phone, "Oh, the phone, my phone, yes" Stiles says.

"Hello? Yes, she's actually sitting right here, it's for you" Stiles says handing the phone to Meredith, "They say "coup de foudre"" Meredith says.

"Coup de—what? What is that, Spanish?" Stiles asks as Isaac goes to answer before a voice behind them is heard, "French—it's French" Scott states.

Kira returns home to the Yukimara residence only to find her mother not home.

"I don't know where she is but I do know she's been trying to keep you out of this for as long as possible" Ken says.

"Well, she should've thought about that before she had me magically rebuild a samurai sword" Kira says sarcastically.

"I know a lot of this is going to be very strange for you, you're going to need to lean a lot very quickly, Kira" Ken says.

"Yeah, like board games?" Kira says following her father who's looking at the game on the living room table.

"In Korea, we call it Baduk, there are different styles of play—aggressive, passive, orthodox" Ken explains, "Can you tell who's who?" Kira asks.

"I know you're black, the novice player always goes first" Ken says picking one of the black pieces off the board, "The white's the Nogitsune" Kira states.

Ken frowns confused, "But these stones are placed in your mother's style, aggressive" Ken states.

"Yeah, but she put them down to represent the Nogitsune" Kira says as Ken looks at her, "Are you sure about that?" Ken asks.

Allison picks one of the arrowheads she made and one of her father's bullets and inspects them confused.

"What am I missing?" Allison asks herself looking at both weapons, before her phone vibrates beside her, she answers it.

"Scott?" Allison asks on the phone, "We know where Lydia is" Scott states quickly over the phone.

Derek rushes back to the twins with help to carry them out, Chris helps carry one of them as Derek carries the other into his loft, putting them both on the couch beside one another.

Derek leads Chris a bit away from the injured and groaning twins, "I found these on the ground" Derek whispers showing Chris the case gun shells.

"This wasn't Araya, was it?" Chris asks, "I don't think so, they don't look like her shells" Derek shakes his head handing Chris the empty bullet shells.

Chris flips the bullet shell over to see the marking, as his face goes pale in horror, "That's not possible" Chris mumbles.

Derek looks at the man with a confused look, Chris's phone vibrates and he looks at the mobile answering the calls.

"Allison?" Chris says once answering, "They found her, Scott found her, Dad, they found Lydia, I'm on my way" Allison says over the phone.

"Allison, hold on, you have to hold on, wait" Chris says, "I can't dad" Allison says, "Allison, wait for me" Chris says.

"There's no time, it's already night, there's no time, Dad" Allison says.

"Wait, Allison, wait!" Chris demands as Allison hangs up the phone call.

Stiles, Scott and Isaac drive towards the destination Lydia is, Stiles looks at Scott noticing the sad look on his face, "Hey, you okay?" Stiles asks.

"Yeah, yeah, you don't have to worry about me" Scott says, "All right, I'm gonna say it, you look like you're dying—you're pale, thin, and you look like you're getting worse and we're all sitting here thinking it, when we find the other you and Marlo, is they gonna look like they're getting better?" Isaac asks.

"What happens if he gets hurt? I'm aware the wicked is stronger on her own so let's not worry about her too much right now" Scott says.

"What do you mean, like if he dies, do I die? I don't care, just so long as no one else dies because of me or Marlo, I remember everything I did, Scott, I remember pushing that sword into you. I remember twisting it, I don't know about Marlo, but I know she'll feel the same if we save her, she's killed people guys" Stiles says sadly at the last part knowing his sister is going to destroy herself at the end of this, if she makes it out of this alive as well as him.

"It wasn't you, Marlo isn't herself either" Scott states looking at his best friend.

"Yeah, but I remember it, you guys gotta promise me, you can't let anyone else get hurt because of me" Stiles demands.

Scott looks in the backseat looking at Isaac, nodding at Stiles once he looks back at the road ahead of them.

In the tunnels, both the wicked and void look around feeling the change of the place.

Although the hybrid doesn't feel the person coming back into her body.

The wicked sighs nervously, "You're nervous, aren't you? You know they're coming, you know they're going to kill you" Lydia states, the wicked leans forward.

Lydia looks at the woman in fear but notices something in her eyes, "Well, that's exactly why we're keeping you so close" the wicked smirks leaning into the strawberry blonde, looking back at Void.

Lydia looks to the side in fear before feeling something in her hand, she looks down discreetly noticing the wicked's hand tapping, the wicked moves away so Void can move closer.

Scott, Stiles and Isaac pull up to Oak Creek noticing Allison and Kira both walking near the entrance.

Scott and the others get out of the jeep and walk towards the two girls sharing nervous and scared looks with one another.

"We've done this before, guys—a couple of weeks ago, we were standing around, just like this, and we saved Malia, remember? That was a total stranger, this is Lydia" Scott states looking at the friend group.

"I'm here to save my best friend" Allison states, "I came to save mine" Scott says looking at Stiles, "I just didn't feel like doing any homework" Isaac shrugs.

Isaac enters first and the rest follow closely behind one another, Isaac, Allison and Kira go a separate way to distract Noshiko as Scott and Stiles go to find Lydia.

"Kira, turn around and go home, take your friends with you" Noshiko states.

"I can't, when I looked at the game, I realized who I was actually playing, you" Kira says.

Scott and Stiles run in the direction Scott can smell Lydia's scent, "She's here, this way" Scott says running off as Stiles follows behind him.

Allison uses her bow and arrow and aims it at Noshiko and the Oni, "Call them off" Allison demands.

"You think you could take him alive? You think you can save him?" Noshiko asks.

"What if we can?" Kira asks, "I tried something like it seventy years ago, your friend and his sister are gone" Noshiko states.

"Are you sure? Or if Stiles doesn't have to die, maybe Rhys didn't have to die, either?" Kira asks.

The oni do some ninja move and aim the katana swords towards the teens.

"I see I'm no longer the Fox now, Kira, you are—but, the Nogitsune is still my demon to bury, I don't mind taking down the wicked hybrid either" Noshiko states as the Oni disappear into the shadows.

Down in the tunnel, The Wicked and Void Stiles lock themselves and Lydia into a part of the tunnel system.

"They're here! And I don't need to scream to know that they're going to kill you" Lydia states, the wicked smirks alongside void.

"Good! Because that's exactly why I brought you, I needed to know when they'd be close enough when my own death was closing in" Void says getting one of the tails out of his pocket.

The Oni appear out of the shadows and lean closer and closer towards Void who gives the tail to the wicked.

"Cause only when they're close, can I do this" the wicked states snapping the knife tail into two pieces.

Outside in the courtyard, Kira and Noshiko continue talking as Noshiko leans forward and gasps opening her hand seeing the now dead firefly.

"Mom?" Kira asks, "What is that? What does that mean?" Isaac asks, "It means there's been a change in ownership" The wicked states behind them with Void to her left and the Oni standing protectively beside them.

"Now, they belong to us" Void smirks, Allison immediately turns the weapon away from Noshiko and aims it at The Wicked, Void and the Oni.

The oni flip the katanas and go into fight mode, as the war begins between the Oni and the teens.

The Hybrid stands beside Void Stiles smirking, still unaware a certain someone is fighting their way to the top and by the way it's happening, she's going to be able too.

Kira screams as the katana sword of the Oni clinks against hers, Allison continues shooting her arrows.

Isaac growls in one of the Oni's faces pissed off noticing one of other Oni's trying to attack Allison.

He lunges for that one taking the attention away from the argent huntress.

Allison then shoots one of her arrows she's been previously using and the Oni cuts it in half having it land on the ground.

Lydia gasps in the tunnels, listening to the fighting and the voices in her head, still in the same spot.

The Wicked and void previously were—hearing the footsteps coming closer she looks at the staircase she will have too many future nightmares about to see Scott and Stiles at the gate.

"Lydia? Are you all right?" Scott asks trying to open the gate, "No, no, no, no, why are you here?" Lydia asks as Scott opens the gate letting her out.

"Lydia, we're here for you" Stiles says, "You weren't supposed to be here! You didn't get my message?" Lydia asks.

Scott looks at the strawberry blonde now noticing somethings wrong, "Lydia, what's happening?" Scott asks.

"Who else is here? Who came with you? Who else is here?" Lydia rushes out.

Both boys notice the scared look on the banshee's face, Lydia explains what she's feeling as they leave the end of the tunnel and run towards the courtyard.

Outside Isaac gets pushed by one of the Oni, landing on the storage beside him.

Allison uses her bow as a weapon and fights off one of the Oni, so Isaac can get back up from his previous attack.

Isaac kicks one of the Oni away from him, as does Kira who's kicking and grunting.

"How do we stop them?" Isaac rushes out still fighting one of the creatures.

"You can't" Noshiko yells, as one of the Oni slash across Isaac's stomach, the wicked hybrid watches still with an evil smirk.

But the woman inside cries out Isaac, fighting even harder to come to the surface.

Scott, Stiles and Lydia run in the tunnels, "Lydia, Lydia, I can't, I can't" Stiles says wearily falling against the tunnel's walls.

Too exhausted to continue running, although Scott does, as Isaac continues getting slashed.

Allison continues shooting arrows at the Oni avoiding hitting Isaac, Allison watches as Isaac gets another slash to the back—she goes for the arrows she made earlier today.

Pulling one out and aiming it at the Oni, shooting it directly into its chest.

The Oni fails to get the arrowhead out of its chest, as an explosion is heard revealing the Oni's disappearance and death.

Void watches in confusion before looking at his mastermind beside him—who's watching the scene but not with a shocked expression but a proud one.

Allison smiles in triumph realising she killed one of the creatures, not noticing the Oni's coming towards her with its katana ready for the kill.

The katana clinks stabbing the brunette straight through her torso, as a blood-curdling scream is heard coming from the side of the teens.

Void looks to his side noticing that's no longer his mastermind and it's Marlo Stilinski.

He launches for the brunette woman only for her to use her vampire speed away from him and towards Allison.

"Alli, Alli, no, no, no" Marlo yells rushing towards the girl she counts as a sister even though they've had difficulties in the past, "Mar" Allison says weakly.

Scott catches her, Isaac falls in utter disbelief Allison's been impaled, Marlo rushes up towards the teenage boy, who looks at her in question.

"It's me, it's me, it's Mar" Marlo rushes out hugging the boy who's tearing up, leaning him against the pillar so he doesn't collapse.

She walks and sits beside Scott who's sobbing holding his first love, he looks to the side feeling Marlo's body heat.

Knowing straight away that's someone he sees as his sister and not the wicked.

Marlo uses her nurse skills and puts pressure on the wound trying to help Allison as much as she can.

Scott watches before he focuses his attention on Allison, "Allison" Scott says.

"Did you find her? Is she okay? Is Lydia safe?" Allison asks gasping, Marlo sobs.

"She's okay, yeah" Scott nods putting his hand on Allison's that resting on Marlo's hand that's holding her wound, "I can't—can't take your pain" Scott whispers.

"It's because it doesn't hurt" Allison whispers in reply looking at Marlo who's sobbing.

"No" Scott sobs, "It's okay" Allison weakly replies, "Allison" Scott tearfully says.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's perfect, I'm in the arms of my first love, the first person I ever loved, the person I'll always love, and Marlo my older sister, someone I love deeply and utterly, don't blame yourself" Allison gasps while talking as blood fills her mouth.

"I love you, Scott, Marlo—Scott McCall and Marlo Stilinski" Allison whispers weakly holding onto Marlo's hand, "Don't! Please, don't—Allison, don't, please" Scott sobs.

Allison looks at both Marlo and Scott, "You have to tell my dad, you have to tell my dad, tell him—" Allison goes to say before taking her final breath, Marlo sobs loudly.

Scott looks at his first love in his arms, "No" Scott says as Allison's hand falls from Marlo's.

Leaving a heartbroken Scott Mccall, Allison Argents first boyfriend, first love, first everything.

Marlo Stilinski, her best friend, sister and saviour as sobs are heard coming from both of them.

Lydia Martin cries over Stiles Stilinski weakened and unconscious body heartbroken over her best friend and feeling her death.

Both Scott and Marlo sit holding Allison's body shattered hearts between the two of them.

Marlo shaking hysterically with sobs, they don't notice Chris Argent entering the Oak Creek courtyard gun held high until seeing his daughter's body being held by the alpha and the vampire-hybrid.

More than one heart broke that night even though Allison Argent died tragically saving her best friends.
