Friend From The Ocean (Sciles)

Chapter 68 ~Final 2/2~

Lydia~

Stiles and Scott have been missing for over a week now. All of us are assuming the worst. I hope it's not what we are thinking, but nothing is looking in our favor. The couple has been absent for far to long. All of us have been hunting the highs and lows of Beacon Hills, however, there has been no luck for the pack and parents. Sheriff and Melissa have been heart broken, and it's so hard to see him like that.

The pack group is gathered around Melissa's kitchen table to discuss about widening our search. Stiles isn't in his grotto, meaning he would be with Scott, but where? The first psychic search I did pointed to Deaton's clinic, but there was nothing.

"You know what they say, second time's the charm." I state

"I thought it was third?" Liam says, getting a death glare from everyone. He takes a step back. "Yep, okay, it's second. Definitely the second time. I turn from Liam to glare at the sheet of paper lying in front of me. I grab a pin and stare at the items of Scott and Stiles that are placed I front of me. Scott's item is a lacrosse stick and Stiles' is his Jeep keys. I begin the scribble across the page randomly until words started to form.

Together.

Alive.

Happy.

Event.

Surprise.

Those are all the words I get before I snap out of my trance. Everyone leans in to glance at the words and instantly seem confused.

"Ugh, none of those words make sense together!" Melissa shouts. She shoves her hands in over her face and cries silently. Argent places a hand on her back for comfort. Noah tears up a bit as well, getting comfort from Liam when he gives sheriff  a pat on the back.

"I didn't think I'd ever say this, but we have to give up the possible of us finding them." Sheriff sighs. No one argues with him, but you can tell everyone wants to. We care about the two too much to give up on them, however, we can't keep searching forever. Sooner or later every dead end search must come to a close. "God, I'm not even sure how I'm going to tell Brody that his brother is gone." 

"As much as I want to disagree, I think he's on the right path." Melissa croaks out. "Noah, you go make it official over while I call the funeral home to schedule a meeting. I'll also need to call Scott's father to let him know everything." The distressed mother rises from her chair, but instantly falls back down.

"Melissa, you need to stay put and calm down a bit first." Noah says. Hey eyes widen and she frantically glances around. At this point she has ceased all crying to show fear.

"I didn't fall back from dizziness. Someone pushed me." She states, putting all of us on guard.

"Are you sure?" I ask her, getting a nod in response. It doesn't shock me when supernatural stuff comes into play. All I know is that when it starts, you better be ready to fight for your life. I wonder what it could be this time. Some weird sorcery? Maybe someone like Corey could be playing a trick. What if it's an evil fox spirit thing that Kira's dad use to tell us stories about!?

"Yes, and whatever it is, it's strong." Melissa whimpers, still glancing around. "And it's still holding me." She whines. Malia swings her arms all around Melissa to remove whatever was holding her. It seems as if she hit nothing at all.

"There is nothing there." Malia states with amazement. She turns to Tyler who is being extremely quiet. We all gasp when realizing she has her head held low and is bleeding out her nose. "Tyler!?" Malia shakes her, reveling her body is as stiff as a board.

"What the hell is happening?" Mason mumbles. As soon as he says that, an empty chair is magically pulled out from under the table. I was going to say something about it, but before that, Noah is quickly pulled into the seat and forced to sit.
