"Once again I've proven anything you can do I can do better" I smirk sticking out my hand to help Theo up off the ground.

Theo rolls his eyes but takes my hand to pull himself up, "they were going easy on you."

"Whatever keeps you happy" I chuckle, "you good?"

"Yea" Theo replies, "how do we stop the beast now?"

"We can't kill it" i state, "I would love to do that but we can't because under Sebastian it's Mason."

"What if Mason is gone?" Theo questions, "what if this Sebastian is the new Mason?"

"People don't just disappear" I tell him, we both start to walk out of the cabin, "Mason is in there somewhere. Whether that's in muscle memory or the brain or maybe the DNA. Mason isn't gone. We'll get him back."

"You're still exactly like Scott" Theo scoffs, "I thought you'd changed after spending time with me."

"I have changed Raeken" I reply, "I just know that I can't let Mason die. I also know what we had it wasn't love."

"Maybe for you" Theo sighs, "I was in love with you Riley. I was in love with you since forth grade! No not was, I am in love with you Riley McCall!"

"You betrayed me!" I remind him, taking a step closer, "you turned me into a Chimera, I died, again, you tried to kill my brother, you controlled me! Do you want me to go on Theo?"

"I'm sorry" Theo responds, "I thought you would've wanted it. I knew you felt useless without having the claws and the fangs so I got them to give them back to you."

"Well since you showed up in beacon hills I've nearly died three times!" I yell, "and all were your fault or at your hands!"

"Riley I'm sorry" Theo pleads, "I'm in love with you! I don't know what to do!"

I look at him with tears forming in my eyes, "look at us. This isn't love!"

"Without you I have nothing" Theo pleads, as I start to walk away, "you have no idea what that feels like!"

I turn around rapidly to face him, "when we went on a break what do you think I had? I had nothing! But now I have everything I've ever wanted. Apart from one thing. That's you. But not the you that is stood in front of me, the fake you. I'm in love with the figment of you theo."

Theo looks at me and smiles, he reaches forward and places his hand on my cheek, but I quickly slap it causing him to wince and look at his hand, "what was that for?"

"Don't touch me" I threaten. "If you touch me again I'll kill you Theo. I don't give a shit what anyone thinks of me, I'll do it without a second thought and will never regret it."

3rd person
The only remaining dread doctors is laying on the exam table while Stiles, Deaton, Scott, and Liam surround him, looking concerned, "Can you keep him alive?"

"I'm not sure he technically is alive" Deaton replies.

"Screw keeping him alive!" Liam scoffs, "How do we get him to talk?"

"Personally, I don't think we utilize torture nearly enough" Stiles shrugs.

Deaton gives Stiles a look, just as a loud whispering is heard, "Come."

Liam frowns and looks at the others, "Did you hear that?"

Scott frowns and focuses his hearing as the voice calls out again, "Come to me. To me."
