Stiles POV
Getting to the hospital is a frantic rush of paramedics, doctors, nurses and me trying to stay out of their way.
One of the nurses stops me when they continue to wheel dad away on the gurney into the operating room so I can fill out the insurance information.
Which I have no idea about.
"Stilinski, right? You said his insurance was with the county? He's a Deputy?" She asks in a rush and I feel my aggravation growing that this is the second time in however many months that they have gotten his title wrong "No, he's the Sheriff, he's the County Sheriff. Okay. He's covered."
I stammer out, hoping my assumption is correct before I back pedal a little "I mean he should be covered."
I feel hands on my shoulders and a saving grace voice behind me "I'll take care of it."
Melissa grabs the folder from the nurse asking questions and sets her hands on my arms to lead me a few steps away before she continues "I texted Scott. He's coming as soon as he can. Is Addy with you– do you want me to call her–"
Shit. How do I tell her I have absolutely no idea where Addy is because a psycho werewolf told me she was safe if I went to find my dad?
I lick my lips and shake my head once as I try to come up with something "Umm– No, no, no. Don't, don't call anyone, Addy is–"
"Stiles!" Hearing Addy's voice down the hall I turn around quickly, my eyes taking in every inch of her– that thankfully doesn't look to be harmed– as she runs right towards us.
Relief crashes over me as she weaves through the people in the hallway and closes the gap between us.
I lift my arms out to her just in time and as soon as her chest crashes into mine, I feel like I can breathe for the first time since she left me at the station.
"Adds, thank god" I murmur more to myself than anyone. My arms encircle her waist tightly and my head drops down into her neck, breathing in her coconut smell that calms me instantly.
She pulls back and I reach my hands up to wipe my thumbs under her eyes as I rest my palms against the side of her face. My voice betrays me and slightly cracks as I whisper "You're okay?"
Drawing her brows in sadly she nods a few times, setting her hands on my chest as she responds just as quietly "he kept his promise. Where's your dad, is he okay?"
I lick my lips quickly, trying to push the unease of the meaning behind her banshee fueled words.
Fighting back the tears that are threatening to fall, I jam my tongue into the side of my teeth before I shake my head with my answer "I don't– they're taking him in for surgery now"
She makes a noise and wraps her arms around me once more, pulling me into her tightly. I rest the side of my head against hers, tightening my hold around her as I let her comfort settle like a blanket over me.
I feel Melissa set her hand on my shoulder as the nurse at the station I was previously talking to interrupts our moment "Is there anyone else we need to notify? A next of kin?"
Setting my chin on Addy's shoulder, I look over towards the nurse as I digress "No, it's me. It's just me."

Addy POV
Stiles gasps awake, bringing me with him as my head was resting on his shoulder while we slept in the waiting room.
Mom is kneeled in front of us and she smiles softly as she informs us "He's okay– Dr. Geyer is stitching him up right now."
I let out a breath of relief with her words and sit up more, while Stiles makes a noise "Okay, I wanna see him" he moves to get up and mom places a hand on his arm, motioning for him to sit down again "Okay, okay. The anesthesia needs to wear off. It's gonna be at least two hours."
Stiles sits back down as he nods and clarifies "Okay, yeah, but everything's gonna be okay though, I mean, he's okay?"
Mom smiles with her confirmation nod "Mmm– he's gonna be just fine."
Tears gather into Stiles' eyes quickly as he sits back and rubs a hand over his forehead "Oh, thank god."
I reach over and grasp his hand in mine, earning him to raise our hands and kiss the back of mine as he lets out a relieved breath.
Mom stands up and rests her hand on my shoulder, squeezing once before she walks down the hallway again.
I clear my throat and turn more towards Stiles "Did you want any coffee or do you want to try to sleep some more?"
"Coffee probably. I won't be able to sleep until I see him" Stiles yawns out and my lips twitch attempting to smile as I pull my phone out of my pocket and try Lydia again.
I close my eyes when I get her voicemail and scroll through my contacts for Jordan's number. Once I set my phone against my ear Stiles nods towards me "Any answer from her yet?"
I shake my head and huff in frustration getting Jordan's voicemail as well, however he's calling back right away before I can leave a message "Hey–"
Jordan's voice is quick to interrupt "Addy are you with Lydia?"
"No that's actually why I was calling you, Theo took her and I don't have any idea where he was taking her."
"Where were you when he took her?" Jordan questions and I scratch my forehead as I work through my escape path out of there "After I ran out of the doctor's lair I made my way through the preserve to get to the hospital"
Jordan makes a noise "Alright I'll head to the preserve– why are you at the hospital, are you okay?"
I clear my throat "It's not me, it's Mr. S"
The line is silent and I can hear the worry in his voice as he clears his throat "Umm– okay you stay there, I'll find Lydia... I promise"
I nod with his words and we end the call.
I shove my phone into my pocket and sit back in my seat. Stiles reaches over and grabs my hand, moving his thumb back and forth against my skin before I make a noise and stand up "Right, coffee– I'll go get us some"
Still keeping our hands linked, Stiles stands up with me stating softly "I'll come with you"
Shaking my head I nod towards the seats "Stay– I can get it"
"Please don't make me wait in here alone" he jokes lightly, however I can see the scared look behind his eyes.
I smile and squeeze his hand, pulling him with me "I would never."
⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇
We are finally allowed to go and see Noah, however when we get there he still isn't awake. He seems to be progressively getting worse instead of better like one should be after a successful surgery
Dr. Geyer, also Liam's dad, again mutters that he doesn't know what's happening and Stiles makes a noise of frustration "What do you mean you don't know? Two hours ago, he was fine. Now it looks like somebody took a baseball bat to his neck."
"There could've been some minor internal" Dr. Geyer attempts however Stiles is quick to argue back "Did you say, 'minor internal?' Since when is anything internal minor?"
"Stiles..." mom trails off and Stiles shares a look with her before he shakes his head and continues "I need to know what's going on with him, okay? Dr. Geyer, somebody needs to tell me what's happening. Somebody needs to tell me what's happening to him!"
The frantic tone to his voice has me drawing my brows inwards as I uncross one of my arms to cover my mouth with my hand, sadly looking between Stiles and mom.
Mom takes a moment, moving her eyes between us and settling them on Stiles as she regretfully mutters "We don't know."
Stiles huffs and his eyes are drawn past the doors behind me. He sets his hands on my arms, licking his lips angrily as he moves past us.
Mom and I share a look with Liam's dad before we turn and watch as Stiles pushes the doors open roughly and takes off into the hall directly towards Scott who is standing outside of Noah's room
Stiles grabs Scott's shirt and slams him against the wall before throwing him onto the ground and hovering over him, muttering too quietly to hear.
Mom and I quickly rush after him, hearing his louder question as we try to pull them apart "So, where were you?"
"Hey, hey, hey..." Mom rushes out and drops down towards Scott while two guys grab Stiles and pull him back.
I walk in front of him and set my hands on his chest as he yells over me "Where the hell were you?!"
"Stop it!" mom shouts into the hall and Stiles drops his eyes to connect with mine.
I offer him a look like it's okay and he huffs before he shrugs off the guys holding him "Okay, all right, all right."
"Your dad's not the only one who got hurt." Scott pants out and Stiles scoffs, dropping his eyes to the bloody spot on Scott's shirt "Oh, you'll heal."
"I'm not talking about me" Scott mutters and looks over to me, my mouth dropping open with my gasp "Lyds– Jordan found her?"
Scott nods "Yea, he found her– she's downstairs but she's not, something's wrong she isn't saying anything. She's just–"
"Staring out in front of her like she's hypnotized" I fill in with dread instantly crashing over me that she's not woken up out of the trance yet and what that could mean
Scott widens his eyes "Yes, how'd you know?"
I shake my head and walk past him "Shit's been happening Scott, it's been a fucking night with your new bestie"
"Yea tell me about it" he grumbles behind me as we walk towards the elevator and I scoff before walking on, Stiles and Scott following behind me to go find Lydia.
We find Jordan in the hallway and I walk up to him quickly offering a grateful smile "Thank you for finding her"
He nods and looks between Stiles and I "How's the Sheriff?"
Stiles makes a noise and I step closer to him, wrapping my arm behind his back as he answers "He's out of surgery but something they can't explain is happening to him"
I hear Lydia's mom muttering in the room beside us"Everything's going to be all right, Lydia. We're going to get you the best medical care. The best doctors– the best everything."
I walk into the doorway, feeling Stiles rest his hands on my waist as he comes to a stop behind me.
Natalie must feel our presence because she turns and looks over her shoulder at us. A hard look flashes over her face as she stands up and quickly walks over to us with her protest "No. No, you don't. You're not coming in here– get out!"
"We know who did this, we just want to see her" I urge sadly and she answers by deepening her glare, looking between the two of us "I know who did this too– you. All of you, now get out– only family is allowed."
Not really wanting to go against her, however not liking the way she's blaming me– I stand my ground "I am family"
Natalie looks taken aback for a moment before she stammers "You're not immediate family, and that's all I'm allowing at the moment. So get out, please and leave me alone with my daughter."
Stiles increases his hold on my waist and I move my eyes to Lydia who is laying on the bed, her eyes open and staring blankly at the ceiling.
Tears gather in my eyes before I scrunch my mouth to the side and connect them with Natalie's "Will you at least keep me updated on how she's doing– please?" my voice cracks with my plea, earning Natalie to soften her face.
She nods ever so slightly before she raises her brows, muttering just above a whisper "Now please leave"
I turn around and Stiles wraps his arm around my back as we step out into the hallway with Jordan again.
I reach up and wipe my eyes with the sleeves of my sweater before I clear my throat and look between Jordan and Scott who are both looking at me expectantly
Walking to head past them and towards the elevator, I throw over my shoulder "Let's go talk to mom"
⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇
We grab mom and head into one of the empty rooms of the morgue to go over the events of the evening. Specifically how Theo not only grabbed Lydia and I, but also put Liam on a murder rampage to attack Scott.
The vision we had came true, Liam stood over Scott slashing at his chest over and over in the library. Liam would have succeeded in killing him if Mason hadn't broken through his seeing red from the super moon.
However Theo showed up and pushed Mason out of the way and stabbed Scott himself. Theo was the other body I saw that stood over Scott and he was the one who finished the job dimming Scott's alpha reds as the life left his body
Mason was with Scott for fifteen minutes before mom showed up and started CPR. She never gave up and hit Scott hard in the chest with her conjoined fists screaming at him to roar and roar he did
Even though I hate what he did to Stiles last night, I still am grateful he's alive wouldn't exactly be becoming to be angry at a dead person
After Scott and mom recounted their events, Stiles went over his conversation with Theo and how Theo told him where to find Noah.
Next is my turn to explain about my encounter with Theo in the library and what he did when Lydia and I woke up in the doctor's lair.
"It could be a side effect of shock" Jordan offers before Stiles interrupts quickly "She's catatonic. It was Theo digging his way through her mind."
I clear my throat "He umm– he was coming after me, Lydia pushed me out of the way."
Stiles steps closer to me, wrapping his arm behind me as mom looks over to me, her voice cracking with her question "Why would he do that? What is he looking for?"
Scott quickly fills in "The same thing he's always looking for– an advantage."
I shrug "He said he saw something before he broke the bond but he didn't say what"
"You didn't ask him?" Scott asks and I narrow my eyes at him "No sorry didn't think he was going to share that information, besides I was kind of preoccupied checking on my friend"
Mom raises her hands out towards us "Alright guys, just take a breath"
"What would he gain by trying to kill Stilinski?" Jordan veers the conversation away from the anger fueled siblings and Scott moves his eyes to the table as he answers "It left me alone with Liam. Theo wanted to make sure no one would be there to stop him from killing me."
"Okay, so he gutted my dad as a distraction." Stiles looks around at the four of us until his anger filled eyes reluctantly land on Scott.
"We need to find this kid." Jordan demands and mom counters quickly with a shake of her head and an incredulous look adorning her face "Isn't that a little dangerous? Especially since he almost killed my kid?"
"Yeah, but he said he didn't want my dad to die." Stiles offers and Parrish doesn't miss a beat "And you believe him?"
Stiles shrugs thoughtfully "He told me where to find him. So, maybe he also knows how to save him."
"What do you want to do? Talk to him?" mom questions
"If it saves my dad, then yeah" Stiles answers, not missing a beat before I turn to him "I'll come with you."
He starts to shake his head when Scott chimes in across the table from us "I will too"
At the looks we give him, Scott sighs and shrugs a shoulder "He doesn't know that I'm alive. Maybe that gives us an advantage."
Stiles huffs and shakes his head, looking at me before walking towards the door, "You're not going anywhere near him and neither are you Scott– he'll know you're there. I just need to talk to him. Not fight him."
"Stiles, you can't go alone and besides we don't even know how to find him" I argue and Stiles turns back to look at me "We don't have to find him– he'll come to me."
⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇
Stiles is sitting on the stairs while I stand with my back against the wall to his left. I have my arms crossed over my front and I don't even have to try to have tears gathered in my eyes to play my part the overwhelming feeling that we are going to lose Noah helps me look like the grieving sister
We have a line of mountain ash across the doorway and we look over when a shadow crosses the floor near our feet.
Theo stands in the open doorway of the front door, looking down to the ashline before looking up towards us.
Theo lifts his foot and crosses over the mountain ash line with ease, proving what Scott said about him being a chimera. He smirks and lifts his arm towards the line behind him "I guess we're all telling the truth now."
We don't say anything and watch as Theo looks up towards the stairs, narrowing his eyes in the direction Scott is definitely hiding which Stiles predicted and throws one of Scott's shirts at him
Theo catches it easily, looking down with an unreadable expression on his face as Stiles croaks out "Did you killed my best friend?"
I feel a tear roll down my cheek as Theo looks up from the shirt to counter "Let's be honest, Stiles. Was he still really your best friend?"
"Are you going to let my father die?" Stiles gets back onto track and Theo almost scoffs "If I wanted him to die I wouldn't have told you where you could find him."
Theo tosses the shirt over to the side and Stiles stands up as he elaborates "Then why are they saying his body is shutting down? That some toxin's poisoning him and they don't know how to stop it."
"I'm not the bad guy, Stiles. I'm just a realist. I'm a survivor. If you knew the things that I know..." Theo trails off and I don't miss a beat to ask, genuinely curious "Yeah, but what do you know?"
"I know what's coming. I know what the Dread Doctors created" he flicks his eyes towards me quickly before he continues "And I know what Parrish is– you two figured it out. I saw it in Lydia's memories."
My glare deepens and I resist the urge to punch him in his smirking face as I quip back angrily "Right after you drove her out of her mind."
Theo narrows his eyes slightly before he nods his head to the side "Collateral damage– but if you two are right about Parrish, then things around here are gonna get a lot worse."
"I don't care." Stiles quips back and Theo jerks his head back slightly "You should– because if your dad does survive he's not gonna be Sheriff of anything much longer."
"What's happening to him?" Stiles asks desperately, however Theo ignores him and turns towards the door.
"Hey, tell me!" Stiles rushes forward and as soon as Stiles touches Theo's shoulders, he turns around and slams his hands into Stiles' chest.
He pushes him back forcefully and Stiles falls backwards, hitting his head on the stairs.
I push off the wall and hover over him, setting my hands on the sides of his face trying to assess the damage.
I suck in a quick breath ready to unleash a screaming match at Theo, however when I turn to look over my shoulder– he's gone bastard
Scott looks out from the top of the stairs and nods when I look at him before he comes down the steps "he's gone"
"Stiles" I try softly, setting my hands on his chest before Scott also mutters his name.
"Addy–" Scott tries but I shake my head "Not now Scott"
Scott hangs his head and I close my eyes, trying to find the strength to not be mad at him it's pretty difficult if I'm being honest since it took him being killed by the guy to see he was wrong
Stiles groans and opens his eyes, fluttering his eyelids a few times before I try to help him up "Hey, are you okay? Are you hurt?"
"I'm fine babe" he groans out and sets his hand in mine as I try to pull him up.
Scott holds his hand out to help him up as well but Stiles bats it away and I successfully get him into a standing position.
Scott moves to his other side and counters "You blacked out."
Stiles shrugs it off "I'm okay. Did you get anything from him?"
"Nothing. He was calm the entire time." Scott shakes his head and I cross my arms over my front as I question "What about his heart?"
Scott nods his head to the side "I heard it jump, but only once, and only for a second."
Stiles looks between us, offering hesitantly "That doesn't mean he was lying."
"Not really. The rest of the time it was steady."
Stiles lifts his hands out to his side, motioning with his words "When did it jump? What was I talking about?"
Scott takes a moment, filtering through the conversation before he looks up "It was when you said that your dad was poisoned."
"That could be something– a jump could mean surprise, right?" Stiles asks hopefully and I nod along with Scott who mutters thoughtfully "Yeah, yeah, I think so."
"So why would he be surprised that my dad's still dying?" Stiles mutters just above a whisper and I chew on the side of my lip before I make a noise gaining his attention with my thought "Wait. He didn't say that he was the one who attacked your dad, did he?"
Stiles thinks about it and shakes his head "No–"
"So, then this means it was probably someone else." Scott ponders and I nod as I fill in "Another chimera."
I walk out of the house, climbing into the front seat of Noah's non police car as Stiles climbs in the driver's side and locks the doors immediately.
Scott tries the door and finding it locked, walks up to the passenger window "Stiles?"
Not looking over, Stiles nods his head to the side "Yeah, we can do the rest ourselves."
Scott moves his eyes between us as he stammers out "You guys don't even know where to start– all we know that it's another Chimera. Do you even know where you're headed?"
Stiles looks to me before he starts the engine and looks out the windshield before Scott offers desperately "Come on– let me help. I can find the clues that you two can't."
Stiles puts the car into gear and begins to let his foot off the brake. The car moves forward a little, however Scott rushes up to the front. He sets his hand on the hood and causes Stiles to put his foot back on the brake.
Confident Stiles won't run him over, Scott looks up and tries to reason again "You guys can't do this alone, okay. You need me. You need all of us. I can get more help. I can text Liam."
"Liam just tried to kill you." Stiles counters back incredulously and Scott makes a face before he shrugs a shoulder "Okay, then at least let me help."
"You believed him" Stiles states so brokenly I have to close my eyes from the pain that is lacing every syllable of that sentence.
"You trusted him, too– Theo got to all of us." Scott's voice has my eyes flying open to argue back "The fuck we did, we knew he was bad news– you didn't want to listen. You wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt and we let you. Look where that got us Scott."
Stiles takes his hand off the steering wheel to grab my hand, before he addresses the wolf blocking our path again, "You know, you don't even know the real story."
"I don't need to." Scott clarifies and I roll my eyes before he continues "All that matters right now is your dad."
I turn my head to share a look with Stiles as I squeeze his hand but otherwise at a loss to whether or not we should accept his help or not.
Scott must sense that because he continues "Come on, guys. We survived an Alpha pack, a dark Druid, professional assassins. We can survive Dread Doctors and Chimeras, too."
Stiles flicks his eyes up to connect with mine and I lift one side of my mouth knowing Scott's unfortunately right before I gasp softly "Wait– we're not looking for a missing Chimera–"
Stiles widens his eyes and finishes my thought "We're looking for a missing teenager."
Scott stands up from his lean on the car when he hears our statement, while Stiles and I climb out of the car to head upstairs.
We get to work and put together an impromptu crime board in my room. After a few minutes of his search, Stiles makes a noise and walks over showing me his phone "There was a call a few hours ago about a sophomore from Beacon High who never came home last night."
"What's his name?" Scott asks and I look over the list of possible already medical DNA chimeras that Mr. S put together for his deputies to question as Stiles answers "Noah Patrick."
I nod and point towards Noah's name on the list, looking over my shoulder at Stiles who nods when he connects his gaze with mine.
Figuring we need to catch this kid's scent somehow, we get to the school after figuring out what locker was Noah's.
Scott breaks the lock, successfully finding a sweater and stating "Now we can catch his scent."
Scott turns and throws the jacket out to his side which Malia catches with ease. I smile at her, not even knowing she was there before I walk over and hug her.
Pulling back from her, I look over to Scott "You called her?"
Scott shrugs "We need all the help that we can get. I should be calling everyone."
Malia takes one hand off the jacket, lifting it out to her side as she elaborates "Plus I know what this kid looks like."
⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇
We follow his scent out towards the water treatment plant and head down some stairs into a train tunnel lined with tracks and gravel.
Stiles and I search around near the stairs while Scott and Malia walk out a little ways in front of us.
Malia walks away and disappears into a walkway under the cement wall. We all share a look before Stiles and I quicken our steps down the tunnel. We follow behind Scott after Malia and come to a stop in an alcove that has a slight breeze coming through.
We look over to Malia as she smiles triumphantly "I got it– I got his scent"
We head down one of the hallways until we're no longer in the train track part. Now we're in more of a pipe industrial looking hallway.
Malia finds some blood on a pipe and turns back towards us after rubbing it over her finger and sniffing through the scent "This is Noah's– he was here. I think he's close."
Scott turns around in a circle, furrowing his brows in thought "Guys... I think we've been down tunnels like this before, like when we were trying to find Liam and Hayden."
"Okay, so what?" Stiles huffs out, his aggravation for how long this is taking growing by the second.
I shrug and look around us "Maybe, it means we're closer than we think."
Scott nods and points towards me as he elaborates "Maybe there's something else down here. Something that we haven't found yet."
"Yeah, nothing that helps my dad. Look, we can't just be standing around here waiting for something to..." Stiles words are cut off as a blurry flash of someone smashes into him and he crashes into the wall behind us.
He hits his head for the second time today and I move quickly over to the wall and crouch down beside him. I set my hands on his shoulders as I try to wake him up "Stiles"
Less than a minute later he gasps awake and looks between us as Scott kneels on his other side "You okay?"
Stiles nods and lets us both help him to stand up this time as he nods "Yeah, fine."
Malia growls and pins Noah down to the ground behind us, earning us to turn around to face them as he frantically pants out "Let me go, please, please– they're coming."
We all share a look, my eyes widening when we hear the ever recognizable clicking cackling noise that belongs to the dread doctors coming from down one of the hallways.
Malia lets Noah up and he instantly starts to run away, however Stiles quickens his steps to stop him.
He grabs Noah and slams his back against the wall, throwing one of his arms across his chest as he threatens "You're not going anywhere."
Noah moves his scared eyes around as he urges "I said I don't remember."
"You don't remember anything?" I ask incredulously as I walk up to the side of the pair and Noah stresses out frantically "No, not when it happens– not when I change."
"You clawed my dad half to death, okay, and now it's poisoning him. You're gonna start remembering every detail right now." Stiles declares through clenched teeth.
"Scott, I hear them." Malia states, worry lacing her words before we hear Scott "Yeah, I do, too."
We look over towards him, seeing him nod at us "Guys, hurry and get him out of here. Go to the hospital– figure out a way to save your dad."
Stiles looks over his shoulder with Scott's words and he nods again. I nod my head to the side before I set my hands on Stiles' arms and he grabs Noah as we turn and run down the hallway again.
We hear gunshots behind us as we round another corner and Stiles' hands instantly grip onto a metal gate that is blocking our path.
He shakes it angrily, grabbing the locked in place chain muttering "Fucking seriously" before Noah slides the sleeves of his shirt up.
We look over to him when he states through a couple of deep breaths "Step back. I think I can break through it. It's just sometimes, most of the time, I lose control– so you better step back."
Stiles and I share a look, nodding in our agreement before Stiles mutters an "Okay" and sets his hands on my upper arms. He pushes me back around the corner behind us and quickly puts himself in front of me. I set my hands on his arm as I look around his side curiosity and all that
Noah groans and starts to breathe heavily as we watch spiked pieces of bones break through his skin, protruding out of each of his arms and the back of his hands.
He pants out deeply, trying to control his breathing as he lifts his arm up and slashes his hand forward. He breaks the chain and lock easily before he sets his hands on the gate and pushes it open.
I widen my eyes seeing one of the bone spikes that's protruding out of his hand is broken with blood covering it.
I increase my hold on Stiles' arm and he nods when he looks over his shoulder at me, letting me know he's seeing the same thing a piece of bone is still in our Noah and is more than likely poisoning him from the bone marrow
Chimera Noah turns around quickly, causing me to jerk back before I realize he's in control and pants out "Let's go" before he rushes through the now open gate.
⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇⋆✦⋆⋇⋆⋇
We called mom on our way to the hospital and told her about the broken bone that is still inside Noah's abdomen somewhere. She said she was on it and I text Scott to let him know we're headed there.
He responds that him and Malia were able to escape the doctor's with the help of Chris, whom he also called for back up today we haven't seen Chris since he left with the Calaveras to hunt down Kate, so I'm looking forward to knowing what happened with that
It's a little over an hour after we got to the hospital that mom walks out in her scrubs to let us know they got the piece of bone out of Noah and he's in recovery. This time Stiles doesn't have to wait in the waiting room and she gets him settled in Noah's room so he can sleep as well.
I offer him a smile and walk up to him, hugging him tightly once mom leaves the room.
Stiles increases his hold around my waist when I pull back and open my mouth to tell him to get some sleep– he however makes a noise to interrupt me and talks first "Please stay with me?"
Lifting the corners of my mouth, I nod "of course I will– you don't want alone time with him when he wakes up though?"
Stiles licks his lips quickly and leans his head down to rest his forehead against mine, whispering "Adds, I want you here with me always."
