"Your dad's not the only one who got hurt." Scott told him.
                          
Stiles looked at him, "Oh, you'll heal."
                          
Scott looked down at his chest before covering it with his jacket, "I'm not talking about me."
                          
I looked at him confused before it hit me, "Please tell me it's not Lydia."

I run my hands through my hair before leaning on the table in front of me. Lydia's not responding to anything, and her mom won't let us anywhere near her. 
                          
"It could be a side effect of shock." Parrish spoke up.
                          
"She's catatonic. It was Theo digging his way through her mind." Stiles said from beside me.
                          
"Why would he do that? What is he looking for?" My mom asked.
                          
"What he's always looking for." I say. "An advantage." 
                          
"So what did he gain by trying to kill Stilinski?" Parrish asked. 
                          
"It left me alone with Liam. Theo wanted to make sure no one would be there to stop him from killing me." Scott explained. 
                          
Stiles sighed, "Okay, so he gutted my dad as a distraction."
                          
"We need to find this kid." Parrish said.
                          
"Isn't that a little dangerous?" My mom asked, "Especially since he almost killed my kid?"
                          
"Yeah, but he said he didn't want the Sheriff to die." I said. 
                          
Parrish looked at me, "And you believe him?"
                          
"He told us where to find him." Stiles told him, "So, maybe he also knows how to save him."
                          
"What do you want to do? Talk to him?" Mom looks at Stiles.
                          
"If it saves my dad, then yeah." Stiles answered. 
                          
"Well, you know that means I'm coming with you." I tell him. 
                          
Stiles sighed, "You don't have to come. I'll be fine."
                          
"Funny." I smile at him, "I don't think I was asking for permission.
                          
"I'll come too." Scott spoke up, "He doesn't know that I'm alive. Maybe that gives us an advantage."
                          
"He'll know you're there. I just need to talk to him. Not fight him." Stiles told him.
                          
"Does anyone even know how to find him?" Parrish asks.
                          
Stiles grabbed my hand before speaking, "We don't have to find him. He'll come to us."

I was sitting next to Stiles on the stairs. I had my head on my hand. We were at my house because of the mountain ash barrier we have. Scott told us last night he was able to walk across the mountain ash. That means the bastard's a chimera. Speaking of Scott, he's upstairs. He went on some rant saying that if Theo smells a werewolf, he'll think it's me or something. He's trying to make it up to Stiles for betraying him, but it's going to take a lot more than this to do that.
                          
I look up when I hear foot steps walking towards us. Theo walks up to the doorway. He looks at us before looking down at his feet where the line of mountain ash was. He smirked and walked over it. So, Theo's a chimera. When all of this is over, I'm going to kick Scott's ass for trusting him.
                          
Theo decided to speak up first, "I guess we're all telling the truth now." 
                          
He looked up the stairs like he was waiting for Scott to pop out. Stiles grabbed the shirt that was between us and threw it at him, "You killed my best friend?"
