Next day. Morning.
I groaned and rolled to the side but i hit a hard chest.
Scott groaned.
I shook him "Wake up"
He groaned and put his head in my pillow.
I shook him again but nothing. I opened my eyes and kicked him out of the bed.
He groaned and looked up to me.
I just smiled innocently "What?"
He rolled his eyes and then he smirked. I looked confused but then he grabbed me and threw me with him on the ground.
We laughed.
Then Liam stormed in.
I sighed annoyed "Liam!"
He stepped out, closed the door and knocked.
Me "Yes!"
He walked in "you two should come downstairs"
Scott nodded "okay"
Liam looked at our position.
I was laying on top of Scott.
I raised an eyebrow "do you need anything else?"
He shook his head.
Me "get the hell out of here"
He walked away.
---
I walked back into my room and saw Scott fully dressed.
I grabbed my phone and we walked downstairs.
We heard Stiles talking "My dad is gonna need people to help"
Kira "for a 5 feet 16 year old?"
Stiles joked "i recorded 9 feet tall rampaging werewolf."
Scott and i chuckled.
They haven't noticed us yet.
Liam "it could still not be him. Hayden is at School looking"
Malia nodded "i will check the woods"
Scott "my mom can check all the hospitals in the country"
They looked at us.
I smirked when i smelled Corey.
Scott "we can find him"
Liam "what happens then?"
Scott "we figure out a way to safe him"
Lydia nodded "okay. where else could we look?"
I smirked and walked next to Scott "why don't we ask Corey?"
They all looked at me confused.
I reached out next to me, grabbed something and dragged Corey out of his invisible form.
Then I flashed my fangs at him "hey, Corey."
Corey was shaking "Wait. Wait. It's not my fault. They took him and i couldn't do anything. They took him.."
Me "Who?"
Corey "The Dread Doctors."
My phone buzzed and i looked at it.
From: Josh
Could you come over?
I need to talk to you.
To: Josh
On my way
At Theo's hideout.
I opened the door and heard Josh scream.
My eyes went wide when i saw what was happening. Theo had his claws in Josh's stomach. He was taking his power.
Josh's heart stopped beating.
They noticed me.
Me "he should've listened to me"
Tracy snapped "What do you want?"
Me "Josh asked me to come over. He's busy now, isn't he?"
I looked at Theo.
Tracy "Then you can go now"
Theo sighed "Corin-
I kept looking at him but was addressing Tracy "don't think that just because Theo took Josh's powers and killed him that he won't come after you too. "
Theo shook his head, scoffing.
Me "i hope you've got some brain and will be able to get away before it's too late"
Then i walked out.
At school.
Scott, Liam and i walked through the hallways to the locker room.
We stopped in front of the locker room door.
I asked confused "Why are we here?"
Liam "How stupid are we to do this?"
I asked even more confused "to do what?"
Scott sighed "we are not stupid. We are desperate"
Liam "how desperate?"
Scott "incredible desperate"
I asked confused "What are we doing?"
Scott grabbed my arm and we walked in the locker room. I saw Theo and Tracy standing there.
I groaned "You've got to be kidding me?!"
I tried to walk out but Scott didn't let go of me.
I hissed "Let me go"
Scott "you won't leave the room"
I sighed but nodded.
Then I walked to a locker and leaned against it.
Theo said amused "told you we would end up on the same side"
Liam "how about i punch you in the balls, to remind you we're not?"
I giggled "I would love to see that"
Theo chuckled "i love this kid"
Tracy "i don't"
I asked funny "Since when are you capable of loving someone?"
Scott "we know, you are not on our side, Theo. You said, you wanted to help Lydia, but you left Eichen with something else, didn't you?"
Theo "you mean the mask? Are you worried about that?"
Me "Cut the crap. What did you see? Who did you see?"
Theo shook his head "not Mason."
Liam asked confused "what's that mean?. It's not him?"
Tracy"it probably means, that he is a lost case"
I snapped at her "shut up. Just because you are a chimera now, doesn't mean that you can interfere in the supernatural business. So let the experienced handle that"
Theo "we all want the same thing. We want Mason back."
Scott "but the difference is that we want him back alive."
Theo took a step forward "Well, i am open for compromises. You saw the map with the telluric streams on it?. Bring it to the operation room in two hours."
Scott looked at me but i looked down.
My phone buzzed.
I smiled when i saw who texted me.
From: Jackson
How is my favorite vamp doing?
Hope you miss me.
Scott "who texted you?"
Me "Jackson"
Liam asked confused "Wait, you mean Jackson as in Jackson the Kanima and your ex?"
I nodded "yep"
I just walked out.
Scott and Liam followed me.
To: Jackson
Miss you.
Heart broken but okay.
From: Jackson
Who do i have to kill now?
I smiled
To: Jackson
Theo Raeken
From: Jackson
That little idiot from fourth grade?
How is everyone?
To: Jackson
Look, Jack, when this problem that we have is over, I will call you and tell you everything, i promise,but now its not a good time.
From: Jackson
kay
I put my phone back into my pocket.
Liam "how desperate are we?"
Scott "incredible"
At Theo's hideout. Night.
Scott, Liam and i walked to Theo who was standing in front of a thing.
Theo "they called him "Der Soldat". It's german for "The Soldiar". Pretty sure he fought in the world war two."
Then he turned to us.
Scott "he was a nazi"
Theo nodded "and an alpha werewolf. The Dread Doctors were using him to extend their lifes. They were doing it for decades. Actually, probably longer."
Liam "how old are these guys?"
Theo shrugged "who knows. but wherever they go, he goes too. "
Me "so how do we find them?"
Theo "keeping him alive needs pretty unique conditions. there's gotta be a power resource. and it has to be under the ground..."
Scott "the telluric stream"
He handed Theo the map. The Beacon Hills Preserve.
Theo "looks like we're going for a hike"
Night. In the woods.
We were walking through the woods.
Scott looked at Theo"where is he?"
Theo answered confused "i thought we were looking for him"
Scott "you know what i am talking about"
Theo "Deucalion?"
Scott shook his head "you shouldn't trust him"
Theo "and you're the one who let him live"
Scott shook his head "i am not a murderer"
Theo asked amused " you think, that you are getting through all this without killing anyone?"
Scott shook his head "i never said that"
Then Liam stopped. we stopped and turned to him.
Liam "we are close"
Scott "you get a scent?"
He nodded.
Theo "which way?"
Liam looked at Scott and me.
Theo "you think, you are leaving me behind?"
Me "actually, i hoped that"
Liam looked at Scott.
Scott sighed "Liam..."
Liam "he wants to kill him"
Theo "i just want his power. You wanna fight someone who actually wants to kill Mason? then fight Parrish"
Liam asked him "who did you see when you put on the mask?"
Theo "i told you. Not Mason"
Liam "who was it?"
Theo "i saw a man dying in the snow. he was impaled on a spear"
I sighed "it's called a pike. Gerard told me the story about the beast. and i told it the others"
Theo "then both of you know what it means. time is running out. where is he, Liam? what direction?."
Liam just looked at Scott.
Theo looked at me.
I shook my head "I'm not gonna help you"
Theo "i am truly sorry for what i said about your sister. I was pissed at you, that's all"
I looked down and mumbled "i can't believe that i'm doing this again"
Then I looked at Liam "look, Liam, he wants Masons power and we want Mason alive, that puts us on the same side."
Liam sighed pissed "this way"
Then he walked in a direction.
We followed him but Theo held me back.
Theo "Thank you"
Me "Do me a favor. Stop using me to get what you want. just stop"
I broke free of his grip and walked to the others. We walked into the building. down the stairs and around the corner we saw Mason sitting on the ground. Liam rushed to him. Something was put on Masons neck.
Scott "he is connected to him"
Behind Mason was a big green water tank with an old old old old old ugly dead man in it.
Liam asked confused "what is this thing?"
Theo "i don't know"
Mason winced out "Liam, i can feel it. it's in my skull. "
Liam "don't move"
Me"guys, i have a bad feeling about this"
Liam asked Theo "what are they doing to him?"
Theo shook his head "i don't know"
I yelled "Stop!"
Scott "focus!. Mason, we will get you out of here."
He looked to Liam "hold him still"
Liam put his hands on Mason's shoulder.
Scott "alright, i'm gonna try to pull it out. tell me if i hurt you.."
Scott put his hand on that thing and tried to pull it out.
Mason screamed in pain.
I turned around and took a few steps away from them and pressed my ears shut.
Theo walked to me and put a hand on my shoulder. I
looked at him.
Suddenly i heard The Dread Doctors.
I yelled "Boys! we have visitors"
Scott walked to us.
Dcotor 1"Theo. Theo Raeken."
Theo shoved me behind him "he is coming with us."
Doctor 1 "failure...Theo Raeken."
Theo said a little bit shocked "i'm not a failure"
Doctor 1"not a complete failure. we learned from you"
Me "Theo, don't listen to them. They are just trying to get to you"
He just looked at them.
I stepped in front of him to block his view of the Doctors to look at me "don't listen to them. "
Doctor 1 "the mark of a true failure. repeating the same mistake again and again."
Me "Listen to me, you are not a failure, you never were. "
Theo looked at me while talking to Scott "we are taking Mason"
Then he shifted and growled "then i'm taking what's mine"
he growled at them and pushed me behind him "let him go. "
Doctor 1 "you have the claim and the narcissism, what typical for your generation is. in that you are a success"
I shifted as Scott walked back to Mason and Liam.
Doctor 1 "but your failure taught us one thing. the banality of evil. that you were and always be an ordinary evil."
Theo "you think i'm ordinary?"
Doctor 1 "we believe, to resurrect the perfect killer, we had to start with the perfect evil. from you we learned, true evil only comes correcting something truly good."
Theo attacked one doctor and i the other one. The doctor caught me and threw me at a wall. I groaned and caught. I looked up to see Theo on the ground and a doctor trying to kill him.
I saw a steel pipe next to me on the ground, grabbed it and threw it at the doctor.
Another doctor must have seen it and blocked it.
We all stopped fighting as we saw Mason getting up and ripping that thing out of his neck.
Doctor 1 "transformation...transformation without frequence"
Liam yelled"Mason!"
Mason was turning into the beast "that's not my name"
I quickly got behind Theo.
The Beast scratched the second dread doctors throat through.
Then he ripped the third one's head off. it flew in front of Theo's feet.
The Beast came at us. He scratched Theo's chest and threw him against the wall.
He just pushed me next to Theo. Hard enough to make me black out.
