The Legend of the Three Gods of the Archers (Completed)

Chapter 25

Time was the essence, that's what they all knew but did they really? Jackson definitely knew it as Atlas and Parrish used their powers to break the shields. The sound of shattering glass caught Beska and Monroe’s attention. 

“Oh, another challenger? And what do you think you can offer? I have your precious omega under my foot and…argh!” Beska never finished as Jackson was using nature to his advantage, lightning struck the man and he was thrown away from Ethan’s body, the omega was awake and rolling away from the burnt grass. 

“What’s the plan?” Atlas turned to Jackson who grunted out very few words, “Get Ethan to Theo, and Monroe’s blood to Gale. She will handle the Nemeton”. 

Both Atlas and Parrish understood, it was very clear information which they both knew was easy to follow. However, a certain alpha could get in the way, Aiden. Thankfully Peter and Derek had him covered especially when Corey got involved, Aiden could do nothing but hold his son close to his chest and check him over, to be truthful Corey was terrified and that was never a good mix with a protective dad, his son being fearful distracted him from his pains revolving around his twin. 

It was a race against time as those who took the jobs upon themselves sprung into action, Scott and Issac ran towards Ethan who was struggling to his own feet while Allison and Parrish helped aid the retrieval of the blood for Gale who was ready beside the Nemeton which began to glow a certain colour. 

“Dad?” 

“Yes Stiles…” 

Noah and Melissa looked up from where they were helping Theo who was struggling to keep himself awake. 

“Is the Nemeton meant to be glowing silver?” 

All attention turned towards the young man who pointed at the object that had started this all. 

“Shit” Arum cursed, he was soon slapped up the head by Cassandra who glared at him but her glare stopped as soon as a cry of agony turned attention across the area. Ethan had collapsed to his knees holding his chest with tears rolling down his face. 

Jackson could only let out a burst of anger as nature got more violent and lightning struck both Beska and Monroe before he rushed over to Ethan’s side, the omega coughing blood violently. 

“E, stay with me…” Jackson whispered, holding his mate unaware of the dangers of his back being turned, Ethan tried to smile, he really did but the blood coming out of his lips and throat. His nose was pouring of blood as he tried his best to communicate over their bond which began to fade with the light appearing in Ethan’s vision. 

“I’m….so-rr…y” Ethan gasped out, Jackson pulled him closer whispering words of comfort. 

Scott gasped out seeing the collapse of the omega of their soon to be an ally of the pack. Gale was crying, her eyes searching the Nemeton. She had managed to add the blood after Peter and Derek ended Monroe’s life, the first chance they got. 

“JACKSON! NOOOOO!” Stiles yelled, running towards the alpha who looked up in shock at the younger man who had spotted something behind Jackson, the alpha turned slightly only to gasp. 

A blade went straight through his chest, screams of his name came from all angles as a white light filled his vision and he found himself seeing something no one else could see as his body slumped over Ethan’s. Somehow the omega was still breathing as Parrish and Lydia scrambled over to them with Parrish and Atlas scooping up the two bodies and running back towards Melissa, Argent, Liam and the dying Theo, who’s eyes struggled to remain open. Malia was calling on her inner coyote to aid Theo in the warmth amongst the cold.
