Teen Wolf (LegaciesxTeenwolf)

I drove alongside Kira and Scott down the road, trying to get to Derek's loft as fast as we could. Night fell before we got there but when we did, we ran up to the loft, stopping when we saw no Stiles in the room. "What happened?" I asked as Allison breathed heavily, Derek was on the ground, and the other two were holding weapons.

"They disappeared." Allison said, speaking about the Oni. "They literally just vanished."

"And so did Stiles." Stilisnki added.

"The couch. Put him on the couch." Scott said as Aiden and him carried him inside Scott's house.

"Guys, this is crazy. He needs to be in the Hospital." Melissa spoke.

"Mom, remember what happened last time he went to the Hospital?" Scott retorted.

"It doesn't look like he's bleeding." Deaton said as he inspected the bloodied wound on Stiles's stomach. "I think he might even be healing."

"You mean healing like we heal?" Aiden questioned.

"That's good, right?" Scott asked.

"Good for him, yes. Us, probably not." I replied, starting at the wound.

"Well if we aren't gonna kill him, why aren't we at least tying him down with really big chains?" Aiden asked.

"I might have something more effective." Deaton replied, opening a case he brought. He held up a vial of Kanima venom and looked at Scott and I. We nodded and walked forwards, opening Stiles's mouth and letting Deaton squirt some venom in. In other news, it woke him up. He snapped his eyes opened and grabbed Aiden by the throat and lifting him in the air. "Get him off me. Get him off me." I was able to make out from Aiden before I finally yanked Stiles's hand away. He looked at it, grunting as he felt it start to go numb.

"Kanima venom. Nice touch." He praised, annoyed.

Aiden roared at Stiles angrily. "You know how they say that twins get a feeling when the other ones in pain? You did't lose that talent, too, did you?" He asked. "Oh, I hope not. Your gonna need it." Scott and Aiden looked at each other. "Okay, I'll give a little hint." Stiles said. "Ethan's at the School." Aiden looked at Scott. "Go." Scott nodded at him before Aiden ran off.

Stiles laughed, watching as he ran from the house. "Oh, I hope he gets there in time. I like the twins." He looked at us. "Short tempers. Homicidal compulsions. They're a lot more fun than you bakemono trying to save the world every day."

"Doc, you brought something to paralyze his body. You got anything for his mouth?" Melissa asked.

"Yes, I do." He nodded and ripped some duct tape off a roll, walking towards Stiles and pressing it over his mouth. He let out a shout that was muffled by the tape before giggling, eyes landing on me.

Lydia pulled me away and towards the kitchen with her, Deaton, and Scott. "How much longer do you think we have?" Scott asked.

"I wish I knew." Deaton replied. "But if we don't figure out something soon, we're going to need to find a better place to keep him. I think we are grossly underestimating the danger here. He might be paralyzed but it still feels like he's got us right in the palm of his hand."

I glanced back at the living room, the boy still staring at me.

"But the scroll said to change his body" Lydia said.

"That's if I translated it correctly." Deaton sighed before turning to face us. "We're looking for a cure in something that might actually be nothing more than a proverb or a metaphor."
