Infinite Animosity (Teen Wolf Season 3b)

17. Bitch

We are nearing the end...

I sit down next to Rhys and he smirks.

"Finally decided what's best huh?" He asks placing his hand on my thigh.

"Yeah, I did. I guess I was just tired of feeling." I reply with a smirk. "You were right Rhys, I never should've doubted you."

"No, you shouldn't have, and you may want to leave before they get here. Who knows what could happen?" He slides his hand up further on my thigh and my hands rest on the back of his neck.

"She knows, Rhys, about the huntress." I state.

"Does she know about his?" He asks before he kisses me. I kiss back and his hand slides from my thigh to my hips. We kiss again and I slowly pull away.

"She does now." I reply standing up. "I'm going to go torment our guest." I walk down the long hallway. "The voices are louder than usual, that's because a lot of bad things have happened down here. They're telling you that Stiles is dying. He is you know." I state watching Lydia. "But, that's not why I'm coming to talk to you."

"What do you want?" She asks, she's scared.

"Lydia, look at me- we can't save Allison, it's too late, but we can still save Stiles. I'll do what I can to save her, I promise, but you have to promise me that you'll get the letters and give them to who they go to. They're on my desk at my house, right hand corner. They'll explain everything, the one that isn't in an envelope is to be read out loud in front of everyone. Got it?" I reply.

"You did this to protect us." She realizes. I nod.

"Please give the letters to everyone. Jackson's is ready to be mailed, it just needs sent out. Thank you for understanding, maybe I can take this down from the inside, but if I can't, make sure that I can't hurt anything." She nods. "Goodbye, Lydia."

"Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on." I whisper repeating it like it's all I know how to say. "Come on, come on, come on." I shake my head and my eyes glow. I force the color to go away and I turn and run down the street. I pound on the door of a house that I know sort of.

"Hello?" The man asks before his face contorts. "TJ? What brings you here?"

"I need Noshiko." I reply.

"Noshiko? We already know about-"

"No, I, me personally, need her." I cut him off. He nods.

"Noshiko!" He calls over his shoulder. She appears by the door and looks at me.

"Noshiko, I'm asking a favor. I won't have this control much longer- while you still have the Oni under your control I need them to see how much of myself I am." I state.

"How do you know about the kumicho?" She asks.

"I'm conning Rhys, I'm buying my pack- well what used to be my pack- time. I'm trying to keep them all safe, and we can save Stiles, like you tried to save Rhys, but it couldn't be done back then. I know your story Noshiko, he has told me many times. Please, you have to help me." I reply. She nods.

"Once the sun goes down, they will test you." She states. I nod.

"Thank you Noshiko." She nods and I turn and run away.

A hand rests against the side of my face and yellow eyes gleam into mine. The world becomes cold and I crumble to the ground.

"You are neither yourself or the Mystilyst, Tabitha, it is in balance." Noshiko says. I nod and slowly try to sit.

"T-t-tell Sc-scott-t I-I'm s-s-sorry." I stutter.

"You can tell him yourself." She states with a slight smirk. My eyes glow of I shake it off.

"No, even if I do get full control, I'm leaving like I didn't get control. I'll stage my death and disappear. Jackson told me to get the hell out of here while I could, if I don't do this now- I'd be damned if I ever got out of here."

"Would you leave your sister behind?" She asks.

"Yeah- yeah I would. I have no choice. Besides she's happy here- with Scott. So I'm leaving her with him, because-" I stop talking.

"Because you loved him?"

"Because I love him." A sad smile finds its way to my face. "And I will always love him, no matter what."

"If you really loved him, or anyone else that is here, you wouldn't leave them." She spits.

"No, I'd stay if I didn't love them, because if I leave, they will all be safer. Besides, if you love something set it free." I state. "And I'm leaving so they will all be free."

"No, you just don't want to stay and be loyal." She sneers.

"I will do whatever it takes to protect my friends. And watch yourself Noshiko, I am not the person to piss off." I snap. "Oh and, just so you know- everything that's going to happen tonight, Rhys said it's all because of what you did." I smirk cockily. "Remember that." I disappear down the alley and climb over a fence before walking back to Oak Creek.
