TW: This chapter contains explicit sexual stuff, the beginning and ending would be marked by*****


After we told everyone what had happened with Isaac the night before, Allison tried calling Mr. Argent but he wasn't picking up so I also started calling him as well but when he ignored all of our calls, we grew worried, so, Isaac, Allison and I went back to her place, while Scott first dropped Kira off and later joined us.  

As we entered the apartment we saw Mr. Argent unconscious and covered in blood. Isaac and Scott carried him to his office while I brought a glass of water to sprinkle on his face so that he wakes up. After a while he finally did and Allison brought the first aid kid and she and I started cleaning his wounds while he talked about those men with Scott and Isaac, how he had encountered them before in Japan when he was rather young. 

"There was something almost ritualistic about it, like it was looking right into his soul." 

Mr. Argent said, then Isaac added that it was the same thing they did with him, "Yeah, that' s what they did to everyone." I said handing Allison band-aids. Then Scott said that they only came after werewolves, but then Allison reminded him they came onto Lydia as well. Then Mr. Argent clarified that they went after anyone with supernatural connection. 

"Then who was the guy they went after in Japan?" 

Isaac asked. 

"A kumicho. A yakuza boss. It was my first gun deal, I was only 18 and it was supposed to be a simple exchange, except Gerard left out the minor detail of the buyer being yakuza. He wanted to see if I could adapt in the moment, testing my ability to improvise. The moment sun went down it was like they just materialized out of the shadows. They had swords not curved like katanas but straight black steel, like ninjatos. They had only one purpose to get to the Kumicho. They cut down every living thing in their way." 

Mr. Argent told us then as I applied ointment to his neck I asked, "Did they mark him like they did them?" 

"Not exactly. Instead of marking him down they killed him. But he wasn't like you guys he was something else. A creature I had never seen or heard about before." 

He explained. Then Isaac asked if he knows what that creature was and Mr. Argent said that he did not but he knows someone who might. He then told us only few survived that night. One of them was a named Katashi, they called him Silverfinger because of an unusual prosthetic, and it looked like he was getting ready to take them all on himself. He then said, that he have known for a while Katashi was in the country, and he spent yesterday tracking him down. 

"Well, it didn't look like he wanted to be found."  

Allison said keeping the first aid box away. Then Scott asked if he thinks he knows what they are or what they want, Mr. Argent said that maybe he did. Then Allison asked what if he doesn't want to talk about it and then Isaac further asked what if that man doesn't even remembered him. Mr. Argent then opened a box and showed us a broken mask and said that, he would remember this. 

"I know I didn't kill it. I'm not sure you can, but I slowed it down long enough for us to get out of there." 

Then I picked up a piece and asked what was behind the mask and he said that it was darkness, absolute darkness. Then Scott soon decided to leave as school was about to start but Isaac and I decided to stay and help the Argents. 

After Scott went I called Stiles to tell him I won't be coming today but as he answered his phone he sounded really exhausted. "Sty are you okay?" I asked and instead of answering he asked me at what time will I be getting to school. Since he already sounded so tired I decided not tell him the whole thing and instead lied that Mr. Argent was in an accident last night, so I was staying with Allison to help them. After this I could tell that Stiles wanted to tell me something but instead he said that it was fine and I should help them, then just as he was about to end the call I stopped him, "Sty, be honest with me, are you sure you're okay and don't need me there? Because just say the word and I'll be there." I said with convection, but he reassured me that he was fine and ended the call and I returned to our discussion with Mr. Argent.
