The Memories That Hold Us Together (s06 Liam Dunbar) Book 3

Chapter - 9

~~Stiles's POV~~

"You didn't see it did you?" The strange boy said as we stared into the black tunnel.

"I saw it." I defended.

"Then why did you waste so much time running through the doors?" He paused and when neither Peter or I said anything he continued. "I'll tell you why, cause it's all part of the illusion. You're afraid and they want you to be afraid."

"I'm not afraid." Peter growled before hurrying to the entry point and stopping. Staring into the blackness there was only a few points of a blue light shining through, but the blue was a dark colour and didn't make much of a difference.

"Can't do it can you?" The boy said and turned to me. "He can't do it."

"We really should kill him." Peter said causing the boy to shut up.

"Or we can just walk through it." I calmly suggested and Peter nodded.

"Push me." He whispered and I had to step forward confused.

"What did you say?" I asked.

"Push me." He said louder and I didn't waste time grabbing his shoulders and pushing him into the darkness. Peter froze while the other just walked through.

"Now you're getting it." The boy said. I stayed at the entry point feeling the fear but determination to walk through.

"Stiles, stiles lets go." Peter said before reaching back and pulling me through. We continued through the darkness until we emerged at an another train station. "Congratulations, you found another part of the phantom train station." Peter said in his sarcastic tone.

"This the way out?" I asked.

"If it was, we'd be leaving." Peter answered while the other boys face was layered in fear.

"Might want to stay off the tracks, because that's the way in and out." The boy said and pointed to a spot ahead of us, on the track. Thunder and horses sounded faintly in the air snapping the boy to attention. "They're coming." He bolted to the the side of the track and climbed onto the ledge.

Peter and I followed quickly before hiding behind a pillar, peaking out so we could see. Green smoke erupted from around a ripple in an invisible wall before the riders ran through, three coming into the station. Ducking back behind the pillar we watched and they ran down the tunnel we just came from.

"That's the way out?" Peter asked dumbfounded. "How in the hell are we supposed to do that?" He was getting angry now.

"We jump." The boy answered.

"Jump?" Astonishment covered the werewolfs voice.

"On the back of the riders as they go through." The boy continued as I remained silent.

"Is that all?" Peter continued his commentary.

"I've been timing it." The boy defended. "Look we can jump from here as they go out."

"I think you are confusing your pronouns. We aren't going to do anything." Peter stated causing me to roll my eyes. "But you should definitely give that a shot."
