~Beacon hill high school; boy's locker room showers.
"Hold still. Don't fight it. Hold still."Deaton says to Aiden. Aiden grunts," Almost there."Deaton says with his hand down Aiden's throat. Deaton does this to remove the Nogitsune flies from the twins and Isaac by sticking his fingers down their throat and removing them by hand. Aiden coughs as Deaton's hand is finally out of his mouth. "Isaac, you're next."Deaton says and Isaac sits down on the bench. "I'm aware."Isaac says. Deaton starts to get to Nogitsune's fly from Isaac's throat. "Don't fight it. Don't fight. Isaac, stay still."Deaton says because he was moving too much. "Got it."Deaton says pulling the fly out and Isaac coughs. "Are they okay now?"Allison asks Deaton. "I hope so."Deaton says and then he looks at all of them. "The part that's worrisome is that this was most likely just a distraction for what was happening to Stiles."He said. "There are really two of them now?"Isaac asked and Deaton nodded. "How's that even possible?"Ethan said. "But how did the other one just take Lydia?"Aiden asked. "We turned around and they were gone. So was her car."Deaton explains. "So no one notices him just kidnapping her right out of the house?"Aiden asked a little frustrated. "Most of us were concentrated on the bizarre sight of a creature, materializing from out of the floor. Sadie is the only one who noticed, had a pretty big cut to the side to prove it."Deaton said. "Hold on. How are you so sure which Stiles is which?"Ethan asked. "That's what they're trying to figure out now."Deaton says.

~McCall Residence.
Melissa gives Stiles a medical exam as he is resting on Sadie's bed, with her asleep next to him. Her mom forced her to get some sleep after she had taken a shower and changed. Melissa checks Stiles pupil reactions with a penlight and reluctantly holds his wrist to check his pulse."Well medically, you seem okay. You're definitely a real person."Melissa says. "Okay, so I'm real, but am I really me?"Stiles asked her and when she didn't answer, he looked next to him at Sadie. Melissa looked at the way he was looking at her and that's when she knew that he was for sure the real Stiles. She opened her mouth to tell him but Sadie's door opened and Scott stood there. "Is she here?"Stiles asked. "Yeah."Scott said. Stiles looked at Sadie before he stood up, "Okay, let's do this."Stiles said and when he saw Melissa's and Scott's faces he continued. "Guys, we have to do this."He explained and they nodded. Stiles placed a kiss to Sadie's head and he smiled when she smiled lightly and wrapped herself a little tighter in the blanket.

Scott helps Stiles downstairs where Noshiko Yukimura, Kira's mom, is waiting. "Do you recognize me, hmm?"She asks. "Stop."Kira says running in. "its okay. I'm the one who asked her to come."Stiles explains. "You're the one who's going to get stabbed with swords."Kira says and then looks at her mom.
"Mom, don't do this to him."Kira says and right after she finishes the sentence, Two Oni's appear in the McCall's living room and quickly grabs the back of Stiles' neck. The demon's eyes glow firefly yellow and they let go. The Oni's disappear as Stiles falls to the ground, "It's already done."Kira's mom says. Stiles gasps and he lets out a grunt as he stands up, with the help from Scott. "Look behind his ear. It worked."Scott says showing every one the symbol for self behind Stiles's ear. "So, I'm actually me?"Stiles asks looking at Kira's mom. "More you than the Nogitsune."She says. "Can The Oni find him?"Scott asks. "Tomorrow night. It's too close to dawn now."She informs. "Can they kill him?"Stiles asks. "It depends on how strong he is."Kira's mom says. "What about Lydia? Why would he take her?"Scott asks confused. "He would only take her for an advantage."She says. "You mean her power?"Stiles asks and Kira's mom nods, "The power of a Banshee."She says.

~Oak Creek Internment Camp.
In the tunnels under the old Oak Creek Internment Camp, Lydia hears the screams of all the people who died there during WWII. "Can you hear them? Louder than usual, isn't it? Well, that's because a lot of bad things happened down here."The Nogitsune taunts still looking like Stiles as Lydia quickly walks down the tunnels, looking for an exit. "What are the voices telling you? Are they saying that Stiles is dying? He is, you know. He's dying."He continues to taunt. Lydia continues to flee down the tunnel seeking an exit but finding none."Then what do you need me for? You think I can tell you something?"She asks him as he approaches her; she was cornered with no way out. The Nogitsune laughs,"Oh, I know you can."He says. "I'm not telling you anything!"She shouts. He smirks, "You won't have to. You'll be screaming."He says.

~Kira's house.
"How are they going to find him? And what are we supposed to do until then? Sit around and wait?"Kira says as her mother and her walk into their house. "Sit and learn."Her mom says as she sits at the board game, "Go." "You want to teach me to play a board game? Now?"Kira asks. "Scott and Sadie said they saw Stiles and the Nogitsune playing the game of, "Go." That's a very important detail. Perhaps, even crucial."Her mom says and then starts to explain the game. "Play starts with an empty board. Black is always placed first. Then white. You place stones to create territories. And you capture your opponent's stones by completely surrounding them."Her mom says and Kira interrupts, "This is life and death, Mom! It isn't a game."Kira says frustrated. "It is to him. And he's winning."Her mom says and then she looks up at her daughter, "You want to save your friends? You want them to survive? Learn to play."She says.

~Sheriff's station.
Deputy Parrish knocks on Mr. Stilinski's office door. "Go home, Sheriff. If anything comes up about Stiles, you know I'd call you in a second."He says. "I'm not going anywhere."The Sheriff replies. "Well, neither am I since my shift doesn't end until dawn. You need a coffee?"Parrish asks him. "Aw, you're a good guy, Parrish. That's what they all said at your previous station. Though, no one could tell me exactly why you left."Sheriff Stilinski says. "Maybe I needed a change."Parrish says but Sheriff Stilinski gives him a look that clearly states he didn't believe that. "I don't really know. I guess I kind of felt drawn here. And I knew there were openings."Parrish informs. "Do you know why there were openings?"Sheriff Stilinski asks. "The statistics don't worry me."Parrish replied. "They worry me."Sheriff Stilinski says. "Well, then maybe you need to get some sleep. Go home, Sheriff."Parrish says and he walks out of his office. Mr. Stilinski decides he's right and gets up to leave, he starts to look around and when he can't find it he sighs,"Ah, if I could just find my keys."He says to himself. "In your coffee cup."Stiles says causing his dad to look up at him in the doorway. "You always drop them in your empty cup."Stiles continue. His dad looks in his coffee cup,"Oh!"He says and he grabs them," Hey, Dad."Stiles says and Mr. Stilinski quickly pulls his son into a hug, Stiles smiles. They pull away and Mr. Stilinski looks at Scott, "Is it over?"He asks. "Not yet."Scott replies.

~Argent's apartment.
Derek comes to see Argent. He questions why, when the former hunter had the chance, he didn't shoot him. Argent says they're not enemies anymore. He then points out that if the Nogitsune is able to pull off a stunt like having the werewolves go crazy then he will likely be coming for them.

~Sheriff's station.
"We got an APB out on Lydia's car. Every unit on the road is looking for her."Mr. Stilinski informs. "Isn't there anything else that we could do?"Stiles asks. He needed to find Lydia because he knew if they didn't find her, Sadie would never be able to forgive herself and neither would he. Hell he didn't know if Sadie would be able to forgive him. "At this hour? No, not really."Mr. Stilinski replies. "He took her for a reason, Dad."Stiles says. "Look, if we can figure out the why, then we'll figure out the where."Stiles continued and before anyone could answer, a very angry Sadie McCall walked into the office. "Why didn't you two wake me up? You were supposed to wake me up if you guys were going somewhere!"She said to them. "Mom said you needed sleep."Scott said. "I sleep perfectly fine, I didn't need it."Sadie said. "Sadie you were up all night looking for Stiles, you had just healed yourself from a pretty big cut on your side, and you have been living off of 4 hour sleeps a night since this whole thing started."Scott said to her and Stiles instantly felt guilty. "I know, I was just worried when you guys weren't there."She said quietly. Stiles grabbed her hand and instantly pulled her to his side and he wrapped his arm around her shoulder as both of her arm wrapped around his waist. "Okay, you can continue now."She said and the two boys and Mr. Stilinski chuckled. "What would a Nogitsune need with a Banshee?"Mr. Stilinski asked. "I don't know, Lydia's pretty good at finding dead bodies. Maybe he needs to find a body?"Scott asked. "Scott, you know more about this than all of us."Sadie said looking at her brother. "Me?"He asked. "You said you got the whole story from Noshiko?"Sadie asked. "Yeah, but that happened during World War II. Like 70 years ago."Scott said. "Wait. What did you say?"Stiles asked. "Noshiko told me about the internment camp-"Scott said but Stiles interrupted. "Not you, what Sadie said before that. You said the whole story."He asked looking down at her. Sadie nodded,"Yeah."She said and when she saw the look on her boyfriends face, she continued, "What is it?"She asked him.

~Eichen House.
"I should tell them. They're going to want to know the story. The whole story."Meredith says to herself.

~Sheriff's station.
"There's a girl at Eichen House. Her name's Meredith. I think she might be able to help."Stiles said and Sadie knew who he was talking about. Meredith was one of the patients she got to talk to, she was pretty weird but she knew about the supernatural."Sheriff, Meredith Walker."Parrish said as he walked in. Mr. Stilinski asked him to call Eichen House and ask if they could see her. "She's still there?"Mr. Stilinski asked the young deputy. "Yeah, but they moved her to the Closed Unit."Parrish said. "Why?"Sadie asked causing the deputy and Sheriff to look at her. "Right, sorry."She said and took a few steps back. Parrish looked at the sheriff, "They said behavioral issues."He answered. "What issues?"Mr. Stilinski asked. "She wouldn't stop screaming."Parrish said.

~Eichen House.
Sheriff Stilinski walked with Brunski, the head orderly, to where Meredith was being held. Stiles, Scott, and Sadie were told to wait at the McCall house till he was done. "Sounds pretty quiet now."Sheriff Stilinski says. "We had to send a guy down to sedate her. Trust me; this little nut job would not stop screaming. But five mils of Haldol take her out like you wouldn't believe."Brunski says with a laugh as he comes to her room, the door is open. "What the hell?"He says and he walks in to see the orderly knocked unconscious and no sign of Meredith. "She got his keys."Brunski says looking up at the Sheriff.

~In the woods.
Ethan and Aiden are running through the woods, trying to pick up Lydia's scent. "Anything?"Ethan asks his brother as they come to a stop. "No scent. No tracks. Nothing."Aiden says. Ethan hears a clicking sound," Did you hear that?"He asks his brother, who nods. "It sounds like - A round being chambered."Aiden says and they take off running as bullets begin to ping off the rocks and trees around them. They both take several bullets and fall. Aiden is unconscious. "Wolfsbane."Ethan grunts out. "Aiden."Ethan says and he grabs his unconscious brother and pulls him behind a log.

~Abandoned parking lot.
"That's it. That's Lydia's car."Allison says, Isaac breaks the lock on the gate and they look for clues around the car. "The scent's strong of emotion."Isaac says. "Fear?"Allison questions and Isaac shakes his head. "Anger."He says. "Sounds like Lydia."Allison replies. "Let's see what else we can find."Isaac says and they continue to look for clues. "Just -Just out of curiosity, do you remember the other night?"Allison asks Isaac, she was worried that he wasn't him when they had sex. "You mean the night before last night?"Isaac asks. "That night before you weren't you."Allison says. "Yeah. I remember."Isaac replies. "So that night, were you, you, or were you not you?"She asks. "You mean, the night when we were us?"Isaac asked looking over at her. "Yeah. I just wanna know if- If it was actually you with me."She answers. "Did you want it to be someone else?"Isaac asks her. "No. No. No, of course not."Allison says. "Good. Because it was me. And I do remember it. I really remember it."Isaac says. Allison stopped and looked at the driver's window, remembering the trick that she and Scott used to communicate, when they weren't supposed to be together. She breaths onto the driver's side window of the car revealing the words "DONT FIND ME" in the condensation, traced by someone's finger.

~Beacon hills high school.
"Ten thousand dollars? They pulled an arrow out of my stomach. What did they do? Fill it up with diamonds?"Coach asks the lady over the phone. "Alright, fine. What- Okay. Just send me the bill. Fine!"Coach says annoyed and hangs up the phone. He turns to the class, "Okay, listen up kids. Today we're -You know what? Today we're going to discuss the corrupt institution of health care."Coach says. "Um, Coach. We have an unexpected guest."Danny says causing everyone to look at the back of the room where Meredith Walker was sitting.

~McCall Residence.
*Sadie's pov*
Stiles laid asleep on the couch and I sat on the floor next to it. Stiles woke up in a panic and sat up,"Hey! You okay?"I asked him. "What happened? How long was I out?"He asked me standing up and I followed. "Just a couple of hours. You should sit down."I said to him. "Where's my Dad?"He asked me, still standing. "He's at Eichen House, questioning everyone, looking for Meredith. I promised him I wouldn't let you out of my sight."I told him as Scott walked into the room. "Okay, what about the others?"Stiles asked. "Allison, Isaac, the Twins, they're all looking for Lydia."Scott said. I sighed, "It's starting to feel like we're waiting for a ransom call."I said sitting down on the couch. "We'll find her."Scott said looking at me. Stiles shivered, "You alright?"I asked him. "Yeah. I don't know why, I just can't seem to get warm."He replied. "Maybe you should sit down. Take it easy."Scott said and he helped Stiles sit. Scotts hand veins went black like they do when he takes away pain. "You're in pain."I said looking at Stiles worried. "It's not that bad. Just more like a dull ache."Stiles said. "Where?"Scott asked him. "Sort of everywhere."Stiles replied. I touched Stiles arm, "Babe, you're freezing."I said to him. "Tell us the truth. How much does it really hurt?"Scott asked him but before Stiles could answer Scott's phone went off. The screen flashed Kira and Scott walked away and answered it. I rubbed Stiles back so he didn't noticed me trying to take away some of his pain, I continued to try but it wasn't working. The only other time I knew my powers couldn't work was when Boyd was dying...

*Scott's pov*
"Hey, what's up?"I said into the phone as I walked away from my sister and Stiles. "She's here."Kira said. "In Coach's class. And you need to get here now too. Like, right now."Kira said.

~Coach's Class.
"Sweetheart. Sweetheart. Do you want to tell me which insane asylum you escaped from?"Coach asked Meredith. "Coach, insane asylum isn't proper terminology anymore."Danny said. "Okay, Sweetheart. What- What nuthouse did you escape from?"Coach asked her. "Eichen House."She said quietly. "Wanna tell me what you're doing so far from there?"He asked. "Trying to help. I can hear them. They scream."Meredith says. "That's got to be terrifying. What, uh why do they scream?"He asked her. "They scream when someone's about to die."Meredith replies. "Are they screaming right now?"Coach asked her. Meredith nods, "How many of them?"Coach asks. "All of them."Meredith replies.

~In the woods.
Ethan is helping Aiden as they continue to try to find shelter in the woods. Derek arrives, picks up Aiden and tells Ethan to run as more bullets smash into the trees nearby.

~Beacon hills high school.
Brunski and two other Eichen House orderlies arrive at school. "Coach, you can't let them take her back. It's hard to explain, but if you let her go back then really, really bad things are going to happen to Lydia, to Scott, to Sadie, and Stiles and maybe everyone, including you. So please, please don't let them take her."Kira begs him. Coach just looks at her blankly, "Who are you?"He asks her. "Um I'm Kira. I'm new."She replies. Coach sees Brunski and is immediately uncomfortable. "Oh, hell."Coach says as Brunski starts towards him. "Finstock. Coach Bobby Finstock. This is a delightful surprise."Brunski says and then continues,"Hmm. What is that saying? Those who can't do, teach? Yeah, that's funny. Is it Professor Finstock when you're off the field? I'm glad to see you made it pro something, Bobby."He says. "It's Coach."Coach corrects. "Coach -You know Professors teach college. Oh, well, you let me know when you make higher education. Now, Coach, where's Meredith?"Brunski asks. "She's fine. She's just sitting in my office."Coach replies and they open the door to see that Meredith is gone. "Find her!"Brunski yells to the other orderly's.

~Argent's apartment building; Argent's work shop area.
Allison is dismantling the sight on her large crossbow in the weapons storage area/workshop of the Argent's apartment building. She tells her father that she is just trying to keep busy. He gives her a bar of silver and tells her it's time for her to graduate.

~Under Oak Creek.
Lydia continues to look for an exit but finds every exit blocked by bars. "Do you think Sadie has figured it out by now? That her precious Stiles is dying. I'm sure she has, she's too smart not to have by now."The Nogitsune says. "They'll find me. My friends are going to find me."Lydia says ignoring what he said about Sadie. "You think so? I myself, was kind of wondering what they're doing right now. What useless lead they're chasing. I wonder if maybe some of them have bigger problems to deal with right now. Are they really spending every minute looking for you? Or are they waiting for nightfall? Focused on some hopeless gesture to pass the time."The Nogitsune taunts. "What do you want?"Lydia asks him. "More."He says walking closer to her. "More what?"Lydia asks him. The Nogitsune tells her and with each sentence he gets closer to her, "The Trickster stories are all about food, Lydia. The Coyote, the Raven, the Fox. They're all hungry. I'm the same. I just crave something a little different. I eat what you feel."He says, Lydia whimpers at how close he is and the Nogitsune continue, "And I am insatiable."He finishes.

~Beacon hills high school music room.
Meredith has found her way to the Beacon Hills High School Music room and is plucking the strings of the grand piano. She hears whispers as the note dies away. She doesn't see Brunski enter the room behind her. She tells the invisible chorus that she can hear them but can't understand them. Brunski interrupts her by triggering his tazer and says it's time to go, but she says she needs just another second because they're trying to tell her something. Brunski is about to attack when Coach arrives, grabs the tazer, and turns it back on the orderly. He says the school has a strict "No Bullying" policy and drives the tazer into Brunski's shoulder. Meredith leaves with Scott, Stiles, Sadie, and Kira while Coach shocks Brunski again. Once they're safely in Stiles' Jeep, both he and Scott turn to Meredith and ask about Lydia's whereabouts. Her only reply is "who's Lydia?"

~Argent's apartment building; Argent's work shop area.
Chris Argent and Allison are handling molten silver. Chris explains that Allison can start over if she wants. He admits that he was a bit of a perfectionist. He removes his silver bullet and shows her how he wanted to make sure the seals looked "just right." He says he made six bullets but used them all. He then points out that Silver should be used at close range because, despite the legends, it's not as accurate as lead. Allison decides to make an arrowhead instead of a bullet because her weapon is the bow. She then takes a moment to say all the things she didn't get to say to her mom before she died. That she loves him and is proud of her father and of what they've accomplished together.

~McCall Residence.
Scott, Sadie, Stiles, and Meredith walking into the McCall living room to see Agent McCall and Isaac standing there. "What are you doing here?"Scott asked his father. "I could ask you two the same thing."He said looking at his kids. "Free period. We're doing a group study."Sadie said. "Who's she?"Agent McCall said gesturing to Meredith. "She's my girlfriend."Scott said and he wrapped his arm around her shoulder. She shook it off, "You're not my type."She said simply. "Well, obviously you two have a lot to talk about. We should maybe take this upstairs."Stiles said. "He's my type."Meredith said looking at Isaac. "Okay. Isaac, you can come too."Stiles said and the three of them went up stairs. "Uh- Hey, Dad, we'll explain all of this later."Scott said. "I don't care that you two are not in school. I know your grades are fine. All I want to do is talk."Agent McCall said. "Now's really not a good time."Sadie said. "Guys, we need to talk."Agent McCall said.

~Scott's bedroom.
"Lydia? You mean the red-haired girl."Meredith asks Stiles. "Yes! Yes! Good. Progress. Now, all you got to do is tell us where she is."He said. "Okay."Meredith says. "Okay."Stiles says with a smile. "If she tells me."Meredith adds. Stiles faces falls, "If she tells you? Can you ask her?"Stiles asks her. "I already did."Meredith says. "Perfect. What did she say?"Stiles asked. "She said she doesn't want to be found."Meredith says. "That's good too. Okay."Stiles says.

~McCall living room.
"Dad, can't we do this tomorrow?"Scott asked. "That's actually something I've been saying for a long time. Come here. You see this?"Agent McCall asks his kids, they look and nod. "This indent in the floor -That was from your head, Scott. The night before I moved out your mother and I were fighting. You came out of your sister's room. I grabbed you by the wrist. You pulled back. And you fell. We watched you tumble down those stairs and that's when you came out, Sadie. Scott, you were out for probably 20 seconds and when you came to, you didn't remember a thing and Sadie only saw you at the bottom of the stairs. Your mom told me to be out by the morning. That was the last time I ever had a drink. And that's why I left."Agent McCall confessed to his kids.

~In the woods.
Derek takes the twins to a coyote den to hide. He wants to know who might be after the twins, Aiden says they pissed off everyone and it was only a matter of time until they caught up with them. Derek leaves to get help.

~Scott's room.
"I'm just saying."Isaac said. "Isaac, we're not going to torture her."Stiles said looking at him. "I meant scare her."Isaac said. "We're not going to psychologically torture her either."Stiles replied. "Fine. How about this? You said she hears things, right?"Isaac asked. "Yeah."Stiles said. "Doesn't that mean she's like Lydia? A Banshee?"Isaac asked.

~McCall living room.
"Okay, Dad. Let me show you something."Scott said and he ran over to the living room window. "See the edge of this window sill. When I got my first skateboard I slid right into it. Broke my collarbone."Scott explained. He then pointed to the coffee table, "This used to be glass. Until Sadie and I fell on top of it trying to catch a lacrosse ball from Stiles. I got three stitches in my cheek and she got three in her leg."Scott said. "This house is full of accidents. The stairs? Maybe it was an accident. Maybe it was worse. But I healed. I don't need your apology. So see you at graduation. Or whenever you decide to show up again."Scott said and he ran upstairs. After watching his son run upstairs he looked to his daughter who hadn't said a word since he confessed what happened that horrible night. "Sadie-"Agent McCall said and took a step towards his daughter but she took two back. She looked up at him with tears filling her eyes, "I cried every night for months after you left. I thought I did something to drive you away, you were my hero."Sadie paused and she reached inside her shirt and brought out her necklace, "You gave me this a week before you left, you promised you'd never leave but you broke that promise and you just disappeared on me!"Sadie said as tears threatened to roll down her cheeks. Agent McCall's eyes filled with tears, his heart breaking at seeing how much he had actually broken his little girl. "I know Sadie, and I'm sorry. I wish I could go back in time and keep my promise but I can't."He said and then he pulled out his keys and showed her the key chain that her necklace fit in perfectly. "I've regretted leaving you guys every minute of every day since I left. I never took this key chain off and I never will."He said. Tears rolled down both of their faces, "You can't just come back and expect everything's going to be the same. We're older and we've been doing just fine without you, like Scott said, we don't know when you're just going to show up again. It's taking me years to fix the damage you did to my heart, you messed me up so bad that I couldn't trust a guy for a long time! I can't just have you come back into my life and my heart, it's not fair to me and it really wouldn't be fair to Stiles. Because you know who I'll push away if you leave again, him. I'll push him away because he's the only thing that will make me happy. He and I deserve to just be happy, and in love."Sadie finished and she ran up the stairs before her father could say something else.

~Scott's room.
Realizing that Meredith may also be a Banshee, Stiles and Isaac try to get her to listen to the voices. Instead she hears a phone ringing. Stiles hands her his phone, she listens for a second then says "coup de foudre." Scott instantly recognizes the phrase from Noshiko's, Kira's mom, story and knows where to find Lydia.

~Kira's house.
Kira is looking for her mother but her father says he doesn't know where she is but does know that Noshiko is trying to keep her daughter out of the fight as long as possible. He acknowledges that the life of a Kitsune is going to be very difficult because Kira has a lot to learn in a very short time. She scoffs and says "like board games?" He explains that GO is called Baduk in Korea and that there are different styles of play. He lists them as "aggressive, passive, and orthodox." He says he knows Kira's are the black pieces on the board because the novice always goes first. He says the white pieces are laid out in the style of her mother, "aggressive." Kira says Noshiko put the stones down to represent the Nogitsune. Her father seems concerned realizing that the two styles are identical.

~Argent's apartment building; Argent's work shop area.
Allison finishes her arrow but says something is missing. Her phone rings and Scott tells her they know where Lydia is being held.

~Oak Creek.
Noshiko and five Oni break through the gates of Oak Creek.

~Derek's loft.
Derek and Argent bring the twins to the loft. They are still bleeding black goo from the wolfsbane bullets. Derek shows the former hunter a shotgun shell he found at the scene of the shooting. Chris asks if they belong to the Spanish speaking woman who tortured Derek and then visited Argent in jail. Derek says they don't look like hers. Chris notices the marks surrounding the metal rim and primer and seems to recognize them. He is incredulous and says "it's not possible." Allison calls and explains that they've found Lydia. He begs her to wait but she says it's already night and there's no time.

~Stiles's car.
Sadie drives quickly as Scott, Stiles, her, and Isaac make their way to Oak Creek. "Hey, you okay?"Scott asked Stiles. "Yeah. Yeah. You don't have to worry about me."Stiles said. "Alright, I'll say it. You look like you're dying. You're pale, thin and you look like you're getting worse. And we're all sitting here thinking it."Isaac said which earned him a glare from Sadie. "When we find the other you, is he gonna look like he's getting better? What happens if he gets hurt?"Scott asks Stiles quietly. "You mean if he dies, do I die? I don't care. Just so long as no else dies because of me."Stiles paused and the continued, "I remember everything I did, Scott. I remember pushing that sword into you. I remember twisting it. I remember everything I said and did to Sadie."Stiles said whispering, so Sadie wouldn't hear. "It wasn't you."Scott only replied. "Yeah, but I remember it."Stiles said, he then looked at Sadie and made sure she wasn't listening before he turned back to Scott and Isaac. "You guys gotta promise me. You can't let anyone else get hurt because of me."Stiles says.

~Oak Creek.
"You're nervous, aren't you?"Lydia asks the Nogitsune. "You know they're coming. You know they're going to kill you."Lydia taunts him. The Nogitsune smirks, "Well, that's exactly why I'm keeping you so close."He says as he pulls her even closer.

*Sadie's pov*
"We've done this before, guys. A couple of weeks ago we were standing around just like this and we saved Malia, remember? That was a total stranger. This is Lydia."I said looking at Allison, Isaac, Scott, Stiles, and Kira. "I'm here to save one of my best friends."Allison says. "I came to save mine."Scott says. "I just didn't feel like doing any homework."Isaac replies.
*End of Sadie's pov*

"Kira, turn around and go home. Take your friends with you."Kira's mom says with two Oni's flanking her. "I can't. When I looked at the game I realized who I was actually playing. You."Kira replies.

"She's here. This way."Scott says as him, Stiles, and Sadie run down the concrete corridors beneath the camp.

Allison draws her weapon on one of the Oni's,"Call them off."Allison demands. "You think you could take him alive? You think you can save him?"Kira's mom asks. "What if we can?"Allison asks. "I tried something like it 70 years ago. Your friend is gone."Kira's mom says. "Are you sure? Or if Stiles doesn't have to die. Maybe Rhys didn't have to die either?"Kira asked her mom. "I see I'm no longer the Fox now, Kira. You are. But the Nogitsune is still my demon to bury."Her mom says and the Oni's disappear.

The Nogitsune takes Lydia through the bars into a massive concrete cylinder. Lydia again taunts him saying that the Oni's are going to kill him. He says "good." He then takes out Noshiko's dagger (tail) and says that he brought Lydia with him so that he would know when the Oni were close enough to kill him. Five Oni appear in the cylinder. The Nogitsune breaks the dagger.

Above ground Noshiko looks startled. She opens her hand to find a firefly there. It quickly disappears in a puff of black smoke. The Nogitsune, who still looks like Stiles, appears with the Oni. He says the firefly signifies a change in ownership and that the Oni's belong to him now. Kira fights the Oni with her katana, Isaac with his claws, and Allison fires arrow after arrow.

*Sadie's pov*
"Lydia? Are you all right?"I asked running up to her. "No. No, no, no. Why are you here?"Lydia asked us. "Lydia, we're here for you."Scott says. "You weren't supposed to be here. You didn't get my message?"Lydia asks. "Lydia, what's happening?"Stiles asks her. "Who else is here? Who came with you? Who else is here?"Lydia asks frantically.
*End of Sadie's pov*

Isaac calls to Noshiko asking how to stop the Oni. She says they cannot be stopped. When Isaac turns back one of the demons slices across his chest.

*Sadie's pov*
Scott, Lydia, Stiles, and I race to the surface but Stiles is weakened and falls behind. Scott keeps running and I help Stiles lean against the wall. "Lydia, stay with him okay? If I can get there in time I can save her, but I need to know you have him, okay?"I asked Lydia. Her eyes held tears, "Lydia! I need a verbal answer!"I shouted. She nodded, "Go, go, go save our best friend. I've got him."She said and I took off to the surface.
*End of Sadie's pov*

Two Oni are slicing at Isaac. Allison draws her bow and, just before what would have been the death blow for Isaac, fires at the Oni. The arrow sticks in the demon's chest and the firefly light begins to shine around it. The ground begins to shake as Oni disappears in a mass of black smoke. Allison smiles but as she turns another Oni stabs her straight through her body with its sword.
Lydia feels the blow, "ALLISON!"She screams in the tunnels under the base.

Scott rushes out and catches Allison as she falls. The Oni disappears and Kira rushes to her mother's side.
"Allison."Scott says. "Did you find her? Is she okay? Is Lydia safe?"Allison asks. "She's okay. I can't. I can't take your pain."Scott says confused. "It's because it doesn't hurt."Allison says looking up at him. Tears start to form in his eyes, "No."He says. "It's okay."Allison says. "Allison."Scott says and a sob escapes his lips. "It's okay. It's okay. It's perfect. I'm in the arms of my first love. The first person I ever loved. The person I'll always love. I love you, Scott, Scott McCall."Allison gasps out. "Don't, please, don't. Allison don't, please."Scott begs as tears roll down his cheeks. Sadie runs out of the tunnel entrance and she sees Allison in Scott's arms, "You have to tell my dad- you have to tell my dad -Tell him."Allison gasps out. "Allison! Allison, hold on!"Sadie shouts and she starts to run to them. Allison knows it's too late so she quickly thinks of Sadie and what they need to tell her dad.
The Nogitsune and the Oni's leave.

*Sadie's pov*
I stopped in my tracks and I cried out in pain as the most painful vision I have ever experienced appears in my head.

*Sadie's vision*
"Silver arrowhead, Silver arrowhead "Repeated twice before I could see the high school. I was feeling nervous and watched a girl walk out of school and head to the parking lot. I saw what car she went too and I realized that the girl was me. I, well whoever's point of view I was seeing this in, walked towards me where I clearly crashed into myself on purpose and I then knew that I was seeing what Allison saw the day we first met. Allison bent down to get her bag, "I'm so sorry, it's my fault, I'm new and I have no clue where I am going." She said in a panicked rush. I saw myself give her a friendly smile," Non since! It was totally my fault! I was messing with my phone." Allison stuck out her hand," I'm Allison Argent." I laughed," I'm Sadie, Sadie McCall!"I heard myself say.
*End of Sadie's vision.

I watched my brother place a kiss against Allison's forehead, I felt myself slowly falling down on the floor and tears quickly gathered in my eyes and rolled down my cheeks. "She did it on purpose."I thought...

*End of Sadie's pov*
Stiles is unconscious and Lydia is crying. Isaac is rocking back and forth on the ground as Chris Argent arrives at the gates to Oak Creek.
