"The Hellhound." we said in unison, looking at each other.

Lydia quickly slammed the book shut, and stared off.

"Lydia what do you hear?" I asked, quietly.

"You know what's coming." A voice erupted from behind us.

We both jumped and turned around,

Theo.

"Don't you." he finished his statement.

"Someone's going to die here," Lydia worried, in panic.

"You're right, but I can't let you tell anyone." Theo maniacally spoke. The tone of his voice made me uneasy.

"Why?" Lydia questioned,

"Because I want you, Lydia. I want all of you."

"What are you talking about?" she asked, staring at Theo.

"Don't worry, I'll give you some time to think about it." Theo said, knocking her out.

I looked down at her and shrieked, then looked back to Theo.

"What the hell did you do that for?" I practically yelled,

"I can't have anyone ruining my plans," he replied.

"Plans for what." I clenched my hands into fists.

"You won't live to find out," he smirked, throwing a punch at me.

I duck and narrow my eyes,

"What are you talking about?" I hissed.

"You don't know what you're capable of, what powers you possess." he whispered, looking me up and down.

"You know what I am?" I narrowed my eyes again as my mouth parted.

"Of course I know," he sassed.

"Then what, what am I?" I stood in front of Lydia's body.

"You're a witch."


"Hey, Lydia?" Scott calls out,

After Theo told me I was a witch, I tried to run. That was a mistake on my part. He caught me, and tied me up to a post in the Library.

I hear Lydia's phone begin to vibrate, as it sits on a shelf across from me.

"Scott," I whisper,

He turns around and sees me, along with a line of mountain ash.

He rushes to untie me, but I jerk my head in the direction of Theo.

"That's not possible." Scott speaks up, referring to Theo pouring mountain ash.

"You're right. A werewolf shouldn't even be able to touch mountain ash," Theo responds.

"You're a chimera." Scott understands,

"I'm the first chimera. It's the coyote part you don't notice." Theo proudly admits.

"It's why Malia trusted me first, even though she probably didn't know it," he continues, backing up towards the mountain ash barrier, as I wiggle my hands, trying to free them.

"You found a perfect word though Scott, because a chimera isn't just a monster with different parts. It can also mean something impossible to achieve, an unrealizable dream." Theo trails off.
