Allison had to wait until Lydia was gone before she forced Ronald into her room, "I thought you said he was trying to adopt Briella?"

"I don't know." Ronald shoots back with as much panic in his voice as her, "This is as much of a shock to me as it is to you. I was pulled out of class by Melissa who told me that a family has decided to adopt me."

"How did I not know what was going on? Isn't there supposed to be a process or something?"

"Apparently, your grandpa had already been going through the process for a while now. I didn't know anything was going on until they asked if I wanted to be adopted. And... I didn't know what to do. I kind of just freaked out and said yeah."

Allison only furrowed her brows, "Why did he adopt you?"

"That's a good question." Ronald mumbles before he pulls his phone out of his pocket, "We have more important things to deal with."

"Scott?" Allison asks when the phone is picked up, "Hey, we have some information on the kanima."

"We?"

Allison glanced over at Ronald, "Ronald is with me. We'll explain later."

"The translation was wrong." Ronald informs them, "It wasn't friend, it was master. The kanima seeks out a master."

"Holy shit..." Zelda's hushed whisper was heard from the other end.

"If Jackson doesn't know what he's doing, then he probably doesn't know that someone is controlling him."

Scott releases a long sigh, "Or he doesn't remember."

"What if it's the same kind of thing that happened with Lydia when she took off from the hospital?"

Allison blinks, "A fugue state?"

"He'd have to forget everything. The murder-"

"Getting rid of the blood."

"Yeah, he had help with one thing though- the video. And someone else helped him forget that."

"Whoever's controlling him."

Ronald ran through his hair, "Are you sure Jackson has no clue about any of this?"

"He thinks he's still becoming a werewolf and that being with Lydia somehow delayed the whole thing."

Allison stared at Ronald for a moment before speaking, "So do we try and convince him he's not?"

"If it helps us find out who's controlling him, then yeah."

Ronald only crossed his arms over his chest, "Do you think he'll even talk to us after what we did?"

"Yeah, it's us." Stiles huffs, "He'll talk to us. Right?"
