"Derek?" Stiles slapped him
"Im not sure that slapping him is going to wo-" y/n tried
Stiles ignored her and slapped him again "Derek, come on!"
And again
And went to do it one last time but Derek caught his hand "Where is she?"
"Jennifer?" Stiles asked "Gone with Scott's mom."
"She took her?"
"Yeah, and if that's not enough of a kick to the balls, Scott left with Deucalion"
"So we gotta get you out of here." Y/n crouched down to his level going to help him up "The police are coming right now, and we gotta get you the hell out of here."
"Whoa." Derek stopped the two "What about Cora?"
~
Y/n sat with stiles in the hospital chair her hand moved onto his leg to stop it from bouncing up and down. The door opened making their gaze move to it, stiles groaned his head falling to the back of the chair "Oh, just perfect."
"A Stilinski at the center of this whole mess." Agent McCall walked over "What a shocker. Think you can answer some questions without the usual level of sarcasm?"
"If you ask the questions without the usual level of stupid" stoked looked up at him
"Where's your dad, and why's no one been able to contact him?"
"I don't know. I haven't seen him in hours." Stiles told him making his gaze move to y/n who shook her head saying she didn't know
"Is he drinking again?"
"What do you mean, again?" Stiles was offended "He never had to stop."
"But he did have to slow down." Agent Mccall "Is he drinking like he used to?"
"All right, how about this? Next time I see him, I'll give him a field sobriety test, okay?" Stoked nodded "We'll do the alphabet, start with " 'F' end with 'U' "
"How about you just tell me what the hell happened here?" He looked between the two of them
"I don't know what happened here. We were stuck in the elevators the whole time." Y/n shrugged
"You're not the one who put the name on the doors, are you?" He looked at them making their heads shoot up
"What name?"
~
After telling the argents that their name was on the elevator stiles and y/n followed them into their apartment
"The word is guardian, Allison. More than anyone, you know that's a role i haven't exactly lived up to lately." Argent walked through shutting off the lights
"But she took Scott's mother and Stiles' father. That's not a coincidence." Allison shook her head
"Yeah, I'd also consider the fact that someone put your name up in large block letters on the elevator doors." Y/n furrowed her eyes at them "That kind of felt like a warning to me.
"I think it might be Morrell." Allison looked between them all "She knows a lot more than she lets on, and she might even be trying to help us."
"Well, she needs to get on that a lot faster, okay?" Stiles nodded "Seeing as how the lunar eclipse is less than two freaking nights away."
"Stiles, don't give up hope." Chris watched his sit down
"They could already be dead."
"I don't think so." Chris tried to calm his worries "There's something about Jennifer's tactics. It's like she's still positioning, still moving pieces into place"
"And you're one of them." Allison agreed
"Then let's not wait around to see the next move." Chris took out a map "Everything she's done has been on a telluric current, so Melissa and the sheriff have to be somewhere on one of those currents, right?" Stiles didn't answer "Stiles, if we're gonna find them, we need your help."
"You seriously want to go after her?" Stiles looked down "I mean, what if she just takes you like the others, huh? No offense, but what's the difference between you and them?"
Chris took out a gun loading it "I'm carrying a .45. Maybe she can heal from a shot to the leg and a few slashes to the face, but personally, I'd like to see how she holds up with half her skull blown off." He set it down "We've got one priority right now, and that is to find Melissa and your dad. We've got a map and every clue we need to figure this out. The only thing we don't have is time, which is why I need all of you "
"Where do we start?" Stiles looked up at the man
"The place where the sacrifices have been committed have usually been different from where the bodies have been found." I think the placement has to do with the strength of the current, so" he pointed on the map "there's the school, the animal clinic, the bank."
"Wait a sec, she wouldn't use the same place twice, would she?" Y/n asked
"Only if she didn't succeed the first time.
"Scott and y/n's boss." Allison looked up
"Deaton." Y/n corrected
"It was her only failure." Chris nodded "That could mean something."
"That's just one place so far." Stiles looked at them "We're gonna need a lot more help."
"What about Lydia?" Y/n offered
"Lydia? What can she do?"
"Uh, Lydia's got sort of a talent. She somehow ended up finding a couple of the bodies, um, without actually looking for them." Y/n nodded, stopping to think about what Jennifer had said to the two
"What is she?" Chris asked "Psychic?"
"She's something."
~
The argents began taking out guns and various weapons, y/n watched them confused "Whoa"
"I thought you guys were retired." Stiles asked as he continued to watch them
"Retired, yes." Chris nodded "Defenseless, no." He turned to the other two "Make sure your phone's on. If you hear from Scott, you let us know immediately."
"Yeah, I'm thinking that's gonna be kind of unlikely." Stiles: put his phone back in his pockets
"try to remember he's just doing what he thinks is right" Chris turned to see Issac standing in the doorway
"I can't shoot a gun or use a crossbow, but... Well, I'm... I'm getting pretty good with these." His claws shot out, y/n looked away it was still sort of awkward around them but with time it would get better. Hopefully.
~
"I don't believe it." Lydia shook her head at the two who stood in her bedroom "Scott can't really be with them. He can't be."
"You didn't see the look on his face, though." y/n shook her head as well "It was..."
"Then what can I do?" Lydia interrupted "I mean, I get that I'm some kind of, like, human geiger counter for death, but... I don't know how to turn it on and off yet. All I know is that she tried to kill us because of..."
"because of what?" He watched lydia look at the floor "Hey, Lydia, what?"
"When she called us banshees, she was surprised by it." Lydia spoke, this was the first time stiles: was hearing of y/n being called one "What if that's not why she tried to kill us?"
"Then why did she?"
"That's what we need to find out." Y/n nodded
~
"Aiden's not texting me back." Lydia said as they walked down the stairs "Okay, well, maybe we could just... we could go over there and..."
Stiles' phone rang and he looked at it panicked y/n noticed this "What?"
"Oh, God." Lydia stepped closer "What is it now?"
"It's from Isaac." Stiles looked up "Jennifer, she t- she has Allison's father. She took him. She's got all three now."
Stiles' breathing began to get heavier as he looked around, y/n grabbed his hand "There's still time, Lydia go find Aiden I'll stay here with stiles" she nodded walking away quickly "We still have time, right, stiles?" He looked around "Are you okay?What's wrong? Stiles."
"I think I'm having a panic attack." He looked directly at her, she nodded grabbing into him softly and taking him into the locker room
"Okay Come on. Come on" she brought him to the lockers trying to get him to the bench but he fell to the ground, y/n followed sitting next to him "just try and think about something else, anything else."
"Like what?"
"Good things." She nodded "Uh, friends, family." Stiles looked up at her she froze shaking her head "Oh, I mean... not family. Okay, uh, just... Try and slow your breathing."
"I can't. I can't." He shook his head in between his breaths
"Shh, shh. Stiles, look at me." She grabbed his face so it looked at her she whispered comfortingly "Shh, look at me. Shh, Stiles."
His eyes scanned her face as he tried to catch his breath, y/n leaned in and kissed him. It was supposed to help with the panic attack but she wouldn't be lying if she said she had missed the feeling of his lips on hers when they pulled apart stiles' breathing was almost normal. At this point he was catching his breath from the kiss
"How'd you do that?"
"I, uh... I read once that... Uh" she rubbed the back of her neck "holding your breath could stop a panic attack. So when I kissed you... You held your breath."
"I did?" He continued to scan her face
"Yeah. You did." She looked into his eyes as tears pooled in the both of their eyes
"Thanks. Really smart."
"I just... I don't know. I just read it somewhere." She shook her head "And if I was really smart, I would tell you to sign up for a few sessions with a guidance counselor but that's jus-"
Stiles interrupted her with another kiss, this one had more pressure. Like he was desperate for her lips, it had been so long since they last even talked to eachother about being together. They pulled away slowly, stiles' forehead rested on hers before he spoke again
"Morrell."
"That's not what I was expecting you to say" her eyebrows furrowed as she chuckled then it hit her "oh my god"
~
They rushed into her office looking down at the girl who sat in the chair. Stiles spoke up "Are you here for Ms. Morrell?"
"No, I thought this was gym class."
"we're not in the mood for funny. " y/n looked over st the girl "Do you know where she is?"
"If I did, I wouldn't be waiting here for 20 minutes." She yelled "so how about you two back out the door and wait your turn?"
"We're not here for a session." Y/n looked sesh from her
"Well, I am." The girl nodded "And I've got some serious issues to work on."
"Hey, wait, wait. You're Danielle. You're Heather's best friend" stiles looked at her
"I was Heather's best friend." She nodded "We've been working on that issue three times a week."
"Hold on, did you say Ms. Morrell's 20 minutes late?" Y/n asked
"And I don't know why either. She's always on time."
"Then she's not late." Stiles shook his head "she's missing."
"What if we're not the only ones who think she knows something?" Y/n asked
"Then I want to know what she knows." Stiles went to her desk
"What are you doing?"
"Trying to find her." Stiles answered the girl
"Those files are private"
"Yeah, she's kind of right." Y/n nodded
"That one's yours." Stiles handed it to her
"Let me see that." She grabbed it and set it on the table looking through it
"Wait, that's lydias drawing." Stoked stopped her
"It's mine" she looked at him weird "It's a tree."
"Yeah, good too." The girl in the chair looked at it
"No. But that's the same one, though." Stiles continued "The same one I always see lydia drawing in class."
"It's a tree" y/n gave him a look confused
"No, but it's the exact same one. Don't you see?" He grabbed it from the file placing it in the table "there, see?"
Y/n grabbed her notebook from her bag setting it down and flipping through the pages, each one showing the same tree
"Okay, you can have my session. You got bigger issues." The girl nodded before leaving the room
"What is this?" Y/n asked, as she continued flipping through them. She flipped the tree around confused
"I know where they are." Stiles spoke up as they left the room "it's the Nemeton. That's where she's keeping them. It has to be..." They looked up seeing Scott's dad
"Stilinski."
"Agh. All right, look, go to Derek, okay?" Stiles turned to her "He and Peter, they've been there before, so they'll know where it is. Tell them it's the root cellar, all right? They'll know."
She nodded as stiles turned and she left the school
~
Y/n went to Derek's and nocked on the door, it opened and there stood Peter making her roll her eyes
"Nice to see you too " he nodded before yelling "Derek, we have a visitor."
She asked about the Nemeton and they looked at her staying silent
"You don't know where it is?" Y/n asked "But Stiles said you'd been there."
"We have." Peter stated sharply "But after a few memorable experiences there, Talia... Derek and y/n's mother and my older sister... decided that she didn't ever want us going back. She knew how dangerous it was and took the memory of its location from us"
"But then how are we supposed to find it?" Y/n looked down at him hoping he had an answer
~
"It has to be on a telluric current, or maybe even at the axis of two or where they all intersect." Stiles looked up at deaton, they had met up with Issac, Allison and Lydia once again "I just know it's where Derek took Paige to die."
"My dad and Gerard were there once. But Gerard said it was years ago, and he couldn't remember where it was." Allison shook her head "And my dad obviously isn't here to tell us now."
"Yeah, mine either." Stiles agreed
"Then how do we find this place?" Issac stated st the floor
"There might be a way." Deston nodded "But it's dangerous. We're gonna need Scott."
~
They began to pour ice into the three tubs, once they were empty seat in spoke up "All right. What did you bring?"
"Um, I got my dad's badge." Stiles held it out "Jennifer kind of crushed it in her hand, so I tried hammering it out a bit. Still doesn't look great."
"Well, it doesn't need to look good if it has meaning." Deacon smiled slightly at the boy
"Is that an actual silver bullet?" Issac looked at what was in allisons hand
"My dad made it. It's kind of a ceremonial thing." Allison looked at it "When one of us finishes learning all the skills to be a hunter, we forge a silver bullet as a testament to the code."
"Scott?"
"My dad got my mom this watch when she first got hired at the hospital." He looked at it "he used to say it was the only thing in their marriage that ever worked."
"Okay, the three of you will get in. Each of us will hold you down until you're essentially... Well, dead." Deaton explained "But it's not just someone to hold you under. It needs to be someone who can pull you back, someone that has a strong connection to you, a kind of emotional tether." Y/n backed up expecting to be the one to sit out "Y/n... You go with Stiles."
She nodded pulling him to the side "we'll be back in a minute" stiles looked at her confused as she went to the entry "I just have to say this one thing and don't interrupt me because I only have one shot at this" stiles nodded looking at her solemnly "I love you stiles, I always have. Something always comes in between us and I'm done with letting that happen. But if you don't want to act on it then that's for you to decide, I-" she sighed her breath shaking "I just needed to tell you this, we don't know what's going to happen and I didn't want to miss my shot"
When he didn't speak, she nodded going to walk away but he grabbed her arm pulling her back to him. He cupped her face bringing her face closer to his, they sat like that for a minute before y/n connected their lips together stiles immediately kissed back. They didn't know what was to come of this do they acted on their feelings incase they never could after this. They pulled away and y/n looked the way of where the others were gesturing for them to her in there. Stiles nodded as they went back to the room hand in hand
They three stood in front of a tub each holding their item, stiles looked back at y/n nervously which she just nodded at him with a small smile. He stepped in both of this very in fully now. They all lowered their bodies into the water up to their shoulders, stiles looked over at Scott before speaking
"By the way, if I don't make it back and you do, you should probably know something. Your dad's in town."
Deaton stood at the end of the tubs as Issac went to Scott, y/n with stiles and Lydia with allison placing their hands on their shoulders they each pushed them under the water holding then down
