"Is she here?" Stiles asked as he layed on the bed and Scott and I entered the room. Scott nodded and I still was shocked and just wanted alone time with Stiles because Mellissa had been making sure it was him all evening. I knew that wouldn't happen though because we wouldn't have ANY time. We had to find Lydia. Stiles eyes flickered towards mine and I saw a tear leave his eye. He had only saw me after I unwrapped him and that's it. He sat up with Mellissa's help and I walked over as I crashed into his arms and cried softly on his shoulder. He pulled me back and kissed my cheek as I smiled helping him up.
"Recognize me?" Kiras mom asked as we walked Stiles into the living room.
"Stop" Kira said running in.
"It's okay" Stiles said walking to her mom. "I asked her to come."
"You're the one who's gonna get stabbed with swords" Kira replied. "Mom don't do this to him."
"Wait what?" I asked getting worried. I just got him back I couldn't lose him.
"It's already done" Kira's mom said as Oni's appeared around Stiles.
An Oni rushed forward grabbing him and a burning sound went through the air as it ripped it's hand free and disappeared with the other one. I ran forward with the others checking behind his ear.
"It worked" I said.
"So I'm me?" Stiles asked.
"More you than the kitsune" Kira's mom replied.
"When can we find him?" Stiles asked.
"Tomorrow. It's too close to dawn now" Kira's mom said.
"Can they kill him?" Stiles asked sitting up and into my arms.
"Depends on how strong he is" she replied.
"What about Lydia why'd he take her?" I asked.
"They'd only take her for an advantage."
"Her power?"
"The power of a banshee."

I sat in my car as Stiles rode in the passenger seat and we were headed to the sheriffs office.
"Ariel I'm sorry" Stiles said suddenly as we approached a stop light on the empty road.
"For what?" I asked turning slightly to him.
"All this. Right when we get together all this starts happening. You shouldn't have had to go through this."
"Stiles" I said grabbing his face in my hand and rubbing my thumb on his cheek softly. "This isn't your fault. It happened okay but we'll get through this. As long as you're here I'll be fine" I said and he smiled softly. He leaned in and our lips connected sending sparks through me. I had been waiting for this for forever. We pulled away as our foreheads rested on each other and I smiled softly as my hand was now entangled in his dark hair and his was on my cheek. His bright amber eyes looked into mine and I looked right back as he smiled.
"I love you" he said and my heart felt like it stopped. He loved me?
"What?" I asked.
"The first day I saw you I fell in love with you. I love you Ariel I really do. It was like-"
"Coupe de foudre" I finished softly.
"What?" he asked.
"Coupe de foudre? It's French for love at first sight" I said and he smiled looking at me.(gif)
"I love you too" I said giving another kiss before he interlaced our fingers as we drove to the station.

"We're trying to track Lydia's car" Stilinski said as I sat beside Stiles playing with his hands.
"Is there anything else we can do?" I asked worried about my friend.
"At this hour no not really."
"He took her for a reason dad" Stiles said. "If we can figure out the why we can figure out the where."
"What would a Kitsune need with her?"
"She's pretty good at finding bodies maybe he's trying to find a dead body?"
"You know more about this than any of us Scott you got the whole story from Nishiko" I said.
"Yeah but that was like 70 years ago in World War 2" he replied.
"Wait what did you say" Stiles asked and we looked to him.
"Nishiko told-" I began but he stopped me.
"No before that. The whole story?"
"There's a girl at Eichen house her name is Meredith" Stiles replied. "She might be able to help."

I woke up to Scott grabbing Stiles who was heavily breathing. We had fallen asleep on Scott's couch where he was sitting and I had a pillow in his lap and my head on it. He had moved my whole body as he rushed off the couch.
"What happened how long was I out?" he asked and I sat up.
"Just a couple of hours" Scott replied. "You should sit down."
"Where's my dad?"
"He's at Eichen house looking for Meredith. We promised we'd watch you" I said running my hands through my hair.
"What about the others?"
"Everyone's looking for Lydia."
Stiles grabbed his jacket and pulled it on and I removed his varsity one from my body but he refused it.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"I just can't seem to get warm" He replied.
"Maybe you should sit down, take it easy" Scott said touching him barely and black veins ran through him.
"You're in pain" I said.
"It's not bad. It's just kinda like a dull ache."
"Where?" Scott asked as I stood beside him.
"Sorta everywhere."
I grabbed his hand to feel his temperature and he removed it quickly and I stepped back.
"Dude you're freezing" I said. He sat down and I squatted in front of him.
"Stiles" I said softly and he looked up and into my eyes. "How much does it really hurt?"
Scott's phone vibrated and we looked at him.
"It's Kira" he said and we nodded. I moved from the floor to the couch and sat beside Stiles grabbing his hands in mine and trying to warm him up. I watched Scott and tapped my foot impatiently just waiting. Like always..... Waiting.
