Virgil was no stranger to gloomy and dimly lit hallways. His time back in juvenile hall had not been pleasant but it was starting to feel like summer camp compared to this place. Every step he took down this 'special' ward made chills go up and down his spine and goosebumps erupt all over his arms and legs. Both from the place, and the people. Passing by one room, he jumped when a hand slammed against the door's glass port hole. Virgil then stiffened up when the hand disappeared and a face appeared. A face of a man that had no mouth. The guy was staring hard at him for a moment before he went took his index finger and made a throat cutting gesture at his neck. Virgil swallowed before he just moved to keep going.
"Is this a psych ward or hell?" he muttered off to himself.
"Is there a difference?" said a new voice. Off to the side was another room but had a glass wall revealing the occupant inside. It was a pale looking, raggedy man that seemed to be on the thin side. He was looking at Virgil with hunger in his eyes. "Please...please tell me that you're my new bunk mate. I lost my last one and they promised me a new one. Please, I'm so...hungry," he growled.
He then opened his mouth to reveal two rows of shark like teeth. Virgil realized this must be one of those cannibal Wendigos that he had heard about.
"Sorry. no dice. If you're that hungry, chew on your hand." He then doubled his walking pace. Once he was out of the Wendigo's sight, he moved to wipe his brow clean with his jacket sleeve. 'I could see why Stiles was so worried before,' he thought to himself.
At the thought of the werewolf, he moved to take out the hand drawn map of the ward he had given to Virgil. "Okay," he muttered as he studied it. "Lydia's room should be not too far from here."
Following the map, he moved until he saw that he just needed to make one more turn until he got to the right room. He was pulling out the key Stiles made when a blue flash was caught at the corner of his eye. He turned to see some kind of blue shockwave pulsing through the walls and floor of the entire place, heading right for him. Virgil braced himself but it didn't seem to do anything to him. But, as it passed, the halls began to get more lively as the patients/prisoners all started to scream or throw themselves against the walls or doors. Cries, roars, snarls and screams started ringing out. It was like a pen full of wild animals had all just woken up at once.
"What the hell?" he gasped out.
Virgil didn't get to dwell too much on it because he heard the sound of footsteps approaching. He went and moved into an alcove just when a finely dressed men came up and stopped at a room a little further down the hall. Virgil let his head peek through to try and get a better look as he saw the man whose photo Dr. Deaton had shown them. Dr. Fenris or Valack depending on who you asked. He was standing in the doorway, giving a stern look inside the room he had just opened.
"Tell me Ms. Martin, did you feel that little energy ripple just now?" he asked calmly and academically as if discussing notes. "Did that make you see anything?"
In the room, lying on the bed, atop a slightly bloodstained pillow, Lydia was lying quite still. A small hole at the side of her head was lightly bleeding but it seemed like she barely felt it. "Yes," she told him, with a bare minimum reaction.
"What do you see?"
"I can see everything," she said, again in that same monotone and out of touch expression on her face.
Her main focus was on the images that seemed to be running through her eyes like a fast paced movie. She was seeing everything that had been happening since she had been admitted to Eichen House since before the Supermoon. She saw the chimeras being created and killed by the Dread Doctors. Sheriff Stilinski getting slapped by Ms. McCall for his choice against Kira. Saw Kira leaving town with her parents. Satomi and her pack howling in mourning and calling for blood. Scott and Stiles arguing at the animal clinic where Scott went and banished him from the pack. Liam holding Hayden with Scott's blood staining his hands. Theo killing Scott in the school library. Stiles holding his hand out to the full moon, pleading with it before he started to transform. Scott letting out a pained roar as he was brought back from the final brink of death.
