Mattera's P.O.V

I get out of my car and I was stopped at Eichen House, and I see Stilinski, Scott, and Stiles, and I ran over to them "You're putting him in here? Are you insane?" I ask

"Mattera, I hurt you, I dug the sword deeper into you." Stiles told me

"It wasn't you. And I'm fine." I say

"It's only 72 hours." Stilinski told me

"This is the same place where Barrow came from. The guy who had a tumor inside him filled with flies. You don't know anything yet." I say

"I know enough. Nogitsunes, Kitsunes, Oni, or whatever they're called." Stilinski said

"Wow, that was actually all surprisingly correct." Stiles told him

"Mattera, I saw an MRI that looked exactly like my wife's. And it terrifies me. I'm headed down to L.A. tomorrow to talk to a specialist." Stilinski told me

"Why are you putting him in here then?" Scott asked

"He's not. It was my decision." Stiles told him

"Stiles, I won't be able to help you in there." I say

"And I can't hurt you." He told me

"Like, I said, I'm fine. Deaton's got some ideas. Argent's calling people. We're gonna find something. And if we can't..." I say but Stiles cut me off

"If you can't... If you can't, then you have to do something for me, okay? Make sure I never get out." He told me and he started to walk in, and I sigh but I just ran to him and I kiss him one last time for 72 hours.

"Did you have any trouble with Ikeda?" Argent asked Deaton

"Only minor. The white wolf was exactly where you said it would be. But we have two problems now. First, the lichen is not a cure. It'll wear off in a matter of days." Deaton said

"But while it does work, the Oni won't go after Stiles, right?" Argent asked

"I hope. Eichen House has an unusual history. It might not be all that safe for the Oni there as well." Deaton told him

"What's the second problem?" Argent asked

"I checked with your contacts in Japan. The Yakuza Boss you saw killed by the Oni never found the scroll." Deaton said

"What scroll?" I ask

"A Shugendo Scroll. The Shugendo were the ascetic mystics of Japan. The scroll had information on how to exorcise a Nogitsune." Deaton told me
