Dark Side of the World // S.S. [Book Two]

Chapter 30

Stiles, Hayden, and I carry an injured Liam into one of the school classrooms. I look at his wounds and see that he has wounds on his chest and abdomen that are deep and ragged. He wobbles and I steady him. "Okay, okay."

Liam grunts. "I'm okay. I'm fine."

"What? Is it bad?" Hayden asks.

"No." Liam says.

Stiles gives a look to the two of them. "Very."

Hayden nods slowly. "Okay. Okay."

Liam coughs and asks. "What do you guys usually do when this happens?"

Stiles lifts his hand. "Oh, I usually pass out. And I still think I might do that."

"Stiles!" I call, jolting him back. "You good?"

He nods. "I'm good. Okay. Scott did this with pain. He could trigger it."

"Pain makes you human." I add.

Hayden frowns at us. "He's already in pain."

Stiles nods. "Right, okay, but maybe adding a little more could help take away the pain."

Liam groans and I look to Hayden. "Take away his pain."

Hayden kisses him and the black lines appear, causing his pain to disappear.

We hear the Beast growling.

Liam chases after Scott, worried about his injuries. Scott just ignores his pain. We find out that Mason is the Beast. It's always the sweetest kids.

(Also during this episode, Lydia has been talking with Gerard and Chris and learning the story of the Beast of Gevaudan. I didn't feel like writing it all out, but I wanted Megara to be part of this episode.)
