Dear Juliet | S. Stilinski (editing)

Insatiable

I had checked for Stiles vitals. We were in my room since Scotts was occupied. I went to check his wrist heartbeat, I winced. I gave him a shaky smiled.

"Well... Medically, you seem okay. You're definitely a real person."

"Okay, so I'm real, but am I really me?"I just sat there quietly. Scott knocked on my door and came in. "Is she here?"

"Yeah." He told him.

"Okay, let's do this. Guys, we have to do this." I helped him up from my bed to downstairs.

"Do you recognize me, hmm?" Kira's mom asked Stiles.

"Stop." Kira said as she came in the house. Stiles walked towards them.

"It's okay. I'm the one who asked her to come."

"You're the one who's going to get stabbed with swords. Mom, don't do this to him. It's already done" the Oni came back and surrounded Stiles. It grabbed Stiles. He fell to ground. I ran to Stiles. "Look behind his ear." I checked his ear, there was a reverse 5 behind it.

"It worked." I told her.

"So, I'm actually me?" Stiles said as he tried to get up.

"More you than the Nogitsune."

"Can The Oni find him?" He asked her.

"Tomorrow night. It's too close to dawn now."

"Can they kill him?"

"It depends on how strong he is."

"What about Lydia?" Scott blurred out. "Why would he take her?"

"He would only take her for an advantage." Kira's mom spoke to Scott.

"You mean her power?" I looked at her.

"The power of a Banshee."

We entered the stations and walked to the Sheriffs office.

"Ah, If I could just find my keys." Stilinski was looking for his keys.

"In your coffee cup." Stilinski had looked at me and Scott, and we nodded. "You always drop them in your empty cup. Oh!" Stilinski had ran up to Stiles and hugged him. "Hey, Dad."

"Is it over?" Stilinski asked as he pull from the hug.

"Not yet." I told him. We had told him about Lydia and that we're looking for her car. 

"We got an APB out on Lydia's car. Every unit on the road is looking for her." Sheriff told us.

"Isn't there anything else that we could do? " I asked him.

"At this hour? No, not really."

"He took her for a reason, Dad. Look, If we can figure out the why, then we'll figure out the where." Stiles reasoned with him.

"Okay. What would a Nogitsune need with a Banshee?"

"I don't know, Lydia's pretty good at finding dead bodies. Maybe he needs to find a body?" I mentioned to him.

"Scott, Juliet, you know more about this than all of us." Sheriff looked at us.

"Us?" Scott puzzled.

"You said you got the whole story from Noshiko?" Now that's all him. He talked to Kira's mom all about her Casablanca story in WWII.

"Yeah, but that happened during World War II. Like 70 years ago."

"Wait. What did you say?" Stiles stopped Scott.

"Noshiko told me about the internment camp..."

"No, before that. You said, the whole story."

"Yeah. What is it?"

"There's a girl at Eichen House. Her name's Meredith. I think she might be able to help." I went to tell Parrish to call Eichen about Meredith.

"Sheriff, Meredith Walker." Parrish came in.

"She's still there?"

"Yeah, but they moved her to the Closed Unit."

"Why?"

"They said behavioral issues." I looked at Parrish.

"What issues?"

"She wouldn't stop screaming." I shook my head. Another banshee. Sheriff told us to go home. So I drove us three back home. I sat next to Stiles, keep an eye on him. He gaps and gets up.

"Hey! You okay?" I helped him up.

"What happened? How long was I out?" He asked him.

"Just a couple of hours. You should sit down." I helped him to the couch.

"Where's my Dad?"

"He's at Eichen House, questioning everyone. Looking for Meredith. I promised him I wouldn't let you out of my sight." I sat him down.

"Okay, what about the others?"

"Allison, Isaac, the Twins, they're all looking for Lydia." I looked at the kitchen. "Scott and the Hastings are in the kitchen.

"It's starting to feel like we're waiting for a ransom call."

"We'll find her. You all right?"  I gave him a confused look as he put on his jacket.

"Yeah. I don't know why, I just can't seem to get warm." Stiles rubbed his hands together.

"Maybe you should lay down. Take it easy. You're in pain."I touched him and I felt his pain. He quickly pulls away. "It's not that bad. Just more like a dull ache."

"Don't lie to me Where?"

"Sort of everywhere." I touched his hands again. I pulled away.

"Dude, you're freezing. Tell me the truth. How much does it really hurt?" Scott and Stiles went to the school to get Meredith. I went to my room and just a think about Stiles and everything going to happen. I heard the door shut and I ran downstairs to see Isaac, Stiles, Scott and Meredith.

"What are you doing here?" Scott asked my dad, who was here. I wonder since I was here all day.

"I could ask you the same thing."

"Free period. We're doing group study." I walked behind my dad, crossing my arms and stand next to Scott.

"Who's she?" My dad pointed at Meredith. Stiles looked at her.

"She's my girlfriend." He pulled her to him.

"You're not my type." She says. I couldn't help but smirk. Man that was funny.

"Well, obviously we have a lot to talk about." Stiles looks at her. "We should maybe take this upstairs."

"He's my type." Meredith said as she looks at Isaac. My mouth dropped. I couldn't laugh so I but my lip.

"Okay. Isaac, you can come too. Uh..." the three went upstairs. Scott and I went to our dad.

"Hey, Dad, we'll explain all of this later."

"I don't care that you guys are not in school. I know your grades are fine. All I want to do is talk."

"Now's really not a good time." Scott strictly said.

"Scott. We need to talk." My dad looked at us, seriously.
