Chapter 57 (Officially the end)

Summary:
Stiles and Malia are still planning but she's got something to confess. Along with that the faceless man is revealed and an old enemy returns.

Scott meats up with Kira outside by the benches.

"You okay?" he asks,

"I guess. I did what you asked. The herb thing my mom gave us I put it on my katana but I accidently hurt Malia. Then she left running and she was screaming. I think it hurt a lot."

"I just saw her and Stiles. She seemed fine and something else."

"What?" asks Kira,

"I overheard Stiles and Malia talking and then I saw...

" "What did you see Scott."

"I saw Malia kissing Stiles and feeding him her pain, probably from the Wait are you sure." says Kira getting worried,

"Yea I'm sure."

"This isn't good. How come we haven't noticed?"

"Malia's been hiding it with him. Probably feeding him and who knows what else he could do."

"We need to do something. How come we haven't noticed?" Kira couldn't get that idea out of her head,

"He hasn't been around lately. So that could be why."

"Alright so we need to tell the other but how can we help him."

"At this point I don't know. Your mom said to keep him away from the darkness so maybe we need to do that. It doesn't seem like he's looking for the box, yet." says Scott,

"That means were gonna have to keep a closer eye on him and that box." says Kira,

"Come on we should go. I'm sure everyones at the loft and I'm sure Stiles won't be going. We can brief the others."

-------------------------------

Just as Scott expected Stiles and Malia weren't at the loft. The other were and they were all devastated to hear the news. A bit of an argument broke out on Malia's half. Some say she just been blind to it all, others say she's been aware of everything and just going along with it and the others say she's being manipulated.

"Okay can we forget about Malia for a moment and talk about the box." says Lydia, "We know it's down in the basement right?"

"The vault actually." says Derek,

"That actually sounds better. Whoever is looking for this thing can get in there." says Ethan,

"Wait there's a vault in the school basement?" asks Danny,

"It's my family's vault." says Derek, "So only one of us can actually open it."

"Alright so if Stiles is going dark and what not. It's a matter of time before he starts looking for that box." says Aiden,

"Kira didn't your mom give you some herbs." says Derek

"Yea, I just laced my katana with it. But I accidentally hurt Malia, real bad." says Kira,

"Was she in a lot of pain?" questions Derek,

"Yea she ran off screaming."

Derek went silent and Scott knew something was wrong.

"What is it Derek?" asks Scott,
"Those herbs only hurt those with darkness. It would hurt Stiles a lot but Malia should be unaffected."

"So then wouldn't Malia be the dark thing we need to keep Stiles away from." says Liam,
