The supernaturals surrounded bela. All ready to fight. The pack moved toward. And the agents cocked their guns prepared to shoot whenever.
"You wanted to fight? Well you've got one now." They moved backwards. Their ally's moving forward in defence.

"Everyone ready?" Scott asked the pack who all nodded in agreement.
"Lydia and Nolan, take the banshees. Malia and Scott, take the alpha at the back. Derek Peter, go for the two betas. Parrish and Isaac, go for the hell hound. Jackson and Ethan take on the laminas and don't get paralysed. Alec and Hayden take on the wendigos. Gabe mason stiles harper Alessia stay back with the fbi and deputies pick up a gun and shoot anyone who gets past. Liam and I will go for bela. Harper! Keep Harlow away from anyone who's not pack."

Theo informed everyone of the plan. And then everything kicked off. People started fighting left and right. Bones were breaking and blood spluttering everywhere. Scott and malia took on the alpha with ease. Quickly knocking him out and going to help Alec and Hayden with the wendigos.

Liam and Theo ran straight towards bela. They were faster than the boys though. And stronger. But they didn't have the experience the supernaturals did. Theo used to be on that side of the war. He knew how they thought. And Liam knew how to win on this side from experience.

"Do you really want to do this? You can leave. Say it's all okay. Beacon hills could use a restart. You know that. It's got to much going on. To many bad vibes and people." They tried to wind their way into Theo and Liams mind. But it didn't work.

"But this place holds memories. Of laughter and love. Friends and family. It might have some bad. Death killings betrayal. But that doesn't make a town bad. It gives a bad wrap. Not bad vibes. So there's two ways this could go."

Theo continued on from what Liam was saying.
"Either you stop. Which we aren't hopeful for. Or you get put in hell. We aren't going to kill you. That's not what we do. But you will rot down there. I speak from experience when I say it's torture down there. So what's it going to be? Surrender? Or fight and loose?"

Bela looked around. The pack was taking down each person one by one. Not killing them. Some where mortally wounded but none fatel. There was an array of shots when the kanima paralysed Ethan and knocked down Jackson. It got weakened. Then there was deafening screams coming from Lydia and Nolan. Clara and sierra had some fighting skills and were helping take on the banshees.

"I'll fight to the death. Wether it be me or you. Someone has to die."
"No. They don't. No one has to die. There's other ways to solve conflict. It took me a while to see it and I killed people I shouldn't. But I know it's wrong now. I found someone to fight for. Someone I would die for. But not today."

Bela smirked their eyes glowed bright purple. The boys imitated the action glowing their own. They pounced at the boys. Grabbing their throats. Neither seemed too effected by this. Both still snarling at the abaddon. They both put their inside leg around the back of belas and sweeping them for out under their body.

Bela hit their head. Hard. But apparently not hard enough. With a choke from being winded. They claws at Liams chest. Digging their nails in. Theo felt this. And wasn't going to let it happen. He found a thick branch and clapped bela round the head with it.

Liam stumbled backward catching his breath. Theo was repeatedly punching bela in the face. Their smile never fading even when blood came oozing out of their mouth and nose.
"What's so funny?"
"You say you don't kill. But I see that look in your eye. You want me dead. So why am I still alive?"

It was such an easy question to answer so why was it so difficult for Theo to say?
"go on. say it. why am i still alive?" The pack now done with fighting gathered around watching the scene.
"Because thats not who i am. not any more." there was a lightning bolt in the sky.
"MOVE!" a voice shouted from above.

Kira came falling out of the sky. her sword in hand. all fully repaired. everyone scattered with no hesitation. theo staying on the nemeton with bela. holding her down to not escape.
"theo?"
"hi kira." she apparently didnt know about theos redemption or even getting out of hell. She stabbed her sword into the nemeton a crack opening up. the ground underneath bela disintegrated. they had no way to catch them selves or stop the fall. however they refused to go alone. While falling they gripped onto theos shirt tightly pulling him down aswell.

"NOOO!" a bone chilling scream was let out. liam had tears falling from his face. kira kept the door open as everyone rushed over in alert.
"LIAM!" a distant yell was let out from the gap in the ground. theo hadnt made his was to hell. not yet. most of the pack new it was near to impossible to get out of hell without being let out.
"how do we? how do we get him out surely hes not stuck. he can get out hes a fighter." tears were falling from alot of faces now. harper was crying for brother. mason corey nolan gabe and alec had just lost one of their pack. scott and stiles let one or two tears full. malia stood there blank faced. as much as she hated theo she knew he didnt deserve it anymore. lydia had tears falling down her cheeks as she let out a few sobs. no one else really knew what to do.

Harlow moved over to liam. she was crying aswell. liam was hysteric. he had just lost his boyfriend. love of his life. soul mate. the gap was slowly closing. if he was going to get out it would have to be soon.
"liam, he can hear you. you might be able to give him enough encouragement to fight his way out." kira spoke softly. last she had seen of the chimera he was bad and she put him in hell. but she knew he had changed. and she knew theo meant a shit load to liam. liam nodded before he started speaking.

"you cant die. not now. we still need you. i still need you. you dont deserve this. not anymore. you are string enough to get out. i know you are." nothing happened. so liam continued,
"you said you couldnt handle it if i died. if tara did hurt me in the hospital like we saw. but we didnt. we changed the future. YOU changed the future. and i dont think i could handle it if you died either. theres so much i havent said yet."

"we need you here theo." mason spoke. liam shot a smile over to him, tears still falling.
"your our friend." corey continued.
"your our pack," nolan joined in next. liam looked around at all of them. grateful.
"i didn't know you very well but you seem awesome. your not like what you used to be." alec breathed out in slight pain.
"i didn't know you well either and from what monroe had said, you were the worst. but she was wrong. your the reason i am alive. im eternally thankful for that." gabe also added to the pack speech.

the older pack stayed quiet unsure of what to say. they didnt think it was their place to say anything. then someone else spoke up.
"i met you after twelve years because i hit liam with my car. i found my brother which i never thought was possible. im so happy i did. even though its been weird the last week or so. ive been happy with my family. and now we have tara back aswell. mom and dad are at home. and im not going to be the one to tell them you love them. because thats going to be you. i love you bro. please come back" there was a small sound in the bottom of the pit.

then a small voice said something. barely over a whisper.
"i love you." it was harlow.
"i need you dad." she said again.
"we love you theo. god damn it 'I' love you." liam shouted down. it kept getting smaller. soon it would be shut. and theo would be trapped. it would be too risky to open it again. bela could get out. so this would his last chance.

another minuet went passed. nothing. liam was still hoping. hoping his other half would appear any minuet. but it didn't happen. scott decided to make the hard call.
"close it." he spoke quietly. kira nodded sadly. as she was about to twist the sword. a hand appeared. clawing its way out of the bottomless pit of hell. it was theo.
