2. "Like a monster?"

LINDSEY DUNBAR

Liam and I were in Scott's bathtub, tied up with tape. Liam tried to get himself free, I just sat there. Thinking about what just happened. I'd be lying if I️ said I️ wasn't scared and confused.

Then the shower curtain opened to reveal Scott and Stiles, the tape muffled Liam and I's screams. Stiles sighed and closed the curtain again, I groaned. I could sort of hear what Stiles and Scott were saying in the other room but not very clearly.

"This isn't going to end with us burying the pieces of their body out in the desert, is it?" I heard Stiles say, my eyes widened as Liam's cries were muffled by the tape in his mouth.

*****

Liam and I were sat on chairs, still tied up. "Liam, Lindsey... we're going to take the tape off your mouth. If you scream it goes right back on. If you talk quietly, it stays off. Got it?" Stiles said, Liam and I looked over at each other then back at the guys and nodded. "Okay," Stiles said and looked over at Scott expectantly, Scott motioned at Stiles.

Stiles nodded and took the tape off both Liam and I's mouths.

"Okay, twins, now you guys have seen a lot of confusing things tonight. And more confusing things are going to happen because of the confusing things that happened tonight. Do you understand?" Stiles explained, "No," I said. "Not really," my brother shook his head. "Good. That's good," Stiles nodded, "I don't understand either," Scott said with a confused look on his face.

"Maybe you should tell them," Stiles said, "Tell us what?" Liam and I said at the same time. "Liam, Lindsey... you guys are twins, right? Since you're twins, you guys are connected in some way... so, what I did to Liam, which I had to do in order to save him, it's going to change you. The both of you," Scott explained. "Unless it kills you," Stiles said, "Shouldn't have said that," Stiles put his hands on his hips instantly regretting what he had said. Liam looked between the two boys, I look over at Liam and saw that he was starting to cry.

I furrowed my eyebrows because it didn't look like he was actually crying, but I went along with the act.

"Uh oh, uh oh. Is he... are they crying?" Stiles asked, "Liam, Lin, it's okay. You're going to be all right." Scott reassured us as he kneeled in front of us. Both Liam and I continued our crying, "You're not gonna die," Scott said. "Probably not," Stiles said as he kneeled next to Scott, "Stop it," Scott said to his best friend. "Okay, possibly not," Stiles finally said, "Would you just help me untie them?" Scott asked. Stiles nodded as he stood up and untied me, while Scott untied my brother.

"Guys, are you ok?" Scott asked genuinely worried, my brother stood up as I stayed in my seat. "We're sorry about that. We're really sorry," Stiles apologized, Liam turned around and grabbed the chair and hit Scott with the chair causing Scott to fall to the floor and causing Stiles to flinch. "Liam, what the hell is your-" Liam cut Stiles off by punching him in the face, he quickly grabbed my arm and dragged me out of Scott's room into the hallway. "Liam, your leg!" I said, we stopped and Liam looked down at his leg. We looked back and saw Scott and Stiles run out of the room stumbling to the floor. "Get them!" Stiles screamed as they ran trying to catch us.
