SIRENS • STILES STILINSKI / BOYXBOY

THE HALE MANSION; 11:00 AM
Stiles Stilinski

Lydia and I walk through the woods getting closer to The Hale family house. There has to be something here that we can use to track them down. As we get closer I begin to feel the vibe of the house. The abandoned house has so much negative energy that even humans like me can feel it.

Lydia walks next to me as it's cold and wind blows harder almost throwing me off my own balance. The wind picks up the leaves near us and blows it into a little leaf tornado. We both ignore it not caring for it and then walk closer to the house as the trees begin to get thinner showing the outline of the dark house.

"We're almost there." I say to Lydia trying to keep her going as she is getting tired. She nods and I hand her my hand and she takes it as I give her the extra pull. As I pull her close to me she falls into my arms and I catch her.

Lydia has been suspicious of me lately, and I've been hiding the fact that I've been hearing the siren's vocals. It's been driving me crazy lately, but also keeping me up at night. Some points I find myself sleep walking and waking up in the kitchen during devil's hour. Other times I become completely obsessed with the idea of sirens.

Lydia gets her own balance and we walk up to the house as the door is left unlocked. I open the door and walk in with Lydia following. As I do walk in I feel a heat in the home keeping me warm, and a humming, not like a siren's but a human humming. Lydia and I pause and we close the door softly and sneak around quietly tracking the humming.

We walk into the Hale library and find the siren, Cy sitting on one of the chairs looking at a Hale family scrap-book. Cy sits in the chair as if he's been waiting for us and stares directly at us with a seductive smile. "Hi, Lydia and Stiles, quite the special duo huh?" He says and he tilts his head with a small smile. "I'm Cy... So glad to finally meet you both." Cy says with a frustrated tone and stares at us with pure evil.

"What do you want?" I ask softly slowly walking closer to the siren to show I'm not afraid.

"Simple." Cy says and closes the book. "I want to know what makes you two so special. Especially you." Cy says and looks directly at Lydia not knowing what she is capable of.

"Why?" I answer back wanting to know immediately. This all seems weird, why is he actually here? He's here for other reasons, not just to know what me and Lydia are. He could guess that so quick.

"You know... I've been really stumped with these two wolves who are supposed to be completely devoted to me, yet their minds keep attempting to call out to you. I just want to know why?" He says putting the book on to the a table next to him and stands up from the chair. "It's hilarious actually, because you know... you're a banshee and they're... werewolves..." He chuckles softly as he thinks we're all idiots. "So why don't we all sit down and have a little heart-to-heart?"

"Don't you have anything better to do? Like protecting the ocean or something?" I say wanting to mock him not knowing where this will take me.

"I can make you both sit down, but it'll be extremely painful on your end, and it'll mess up your pretty hair styles." He says frustrated and impatient as he takes a heavy step to show his dominance over us. Lydia walks infant of me not wanting to test him and I follow along and sit on the couch with her. Cy walks around us and stands behind us in the couch and leans on it.

"So Lydia and Stiles, what's your secret?" Cy asks calmly and I don't know what he's getting out of this. It's hard to predict what he's even doing here, it's almost like he's here out of pure boredom.

"I don't know, I condition my hair with-" Lydia says following along with Cy's hair joke and Cy sighs.

"Oh come on, surely you can think of something-"
