━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━
Flashback to earlier that night at Camp Oak Creek.
"Scott, look at me. Look at me!" Chris yells at the boy who kept staring at a dead Ellie in Derek's arms with Allison sobbing over her body.
"Scott, look at me," Chris says making Scott look towards him still in shock from what just happened.
"You have to remember-- you called me first, okay?" Chris asks him but Scott couldn't focus.
"What are doing?" Melissa asks confused making Ellie gulp.
"Making a story regarding my death. You can't say that demon ninja stabbed me. Can you?" Ellie asks her with a small chuckle as Melissa looks at her heartbroken.
"Say it. You called me first," Chris demands towards Scott.
"I... I called you--," Scott begins to say panting but Chris interrupts him.
"Not "you." Say "Mr. Argent," or "her dad"," Chris corrects him making Scott nod.
"I called her dad first...," Scott says correctly making Chris nod.
"What else? What happened?" Chris asks him as Scott takes a deep breath.
"There were two of them..," Scott continues.
"Really only two? Say at least four or five. I don't want to die a wimp," Ellie says shaking her head and making Allison slap her over the head.
"Shut up," Allison tells her making Ellie nod sheepishly.
"Sorry," Ellie says as she looks towards Derek whose eyes were closed making her grab his hand and place it over her chest.
"I'm here. Feel that. It's my heart beating still," Ellie tells him softly making Derek nod his head at her words.
"Mmhmm," Chris says nodding his head.
"They tried to steal our car... They wore masks... One of them had a knife...," Scott says breathing heavily.
"You think. Don't get specific, Scott-- you saw something sharp and metallic, you think it was a knife," Chris tells Scott who nods at his words.
"What do you say next? If you get confused, what do you always repeat?" Chris asks him making Scott take a deep breath.
"It happened so fast...," Scott tells him.
"That's right. Say it again," Chris tells him nodding his head.
"Scott! Say it again," Chris tells him sternly.
"How are you doing this?" Scott asks him exhaustedly before looking back at Ellie's body with tears in his eyes.
"It's what we do...," Chris says before looking at his daughter with tears in his eyes.
"It's what we do. It's what she would want," Chris says softly shaking his head.
Ellie squeezes her dad's hand with tears in her eyes. He shouldn't have to do this. He shouldn't have to make up a story due to her death.
The scene then changes to the police station Parrish in front of the teenagers.
"Can you remember anything else? Anything else?" Parrish asks softly but no one says anything.
"Isaac...?" Parrish asks Isaac who wipes his tears slightly.
"I'm sorry... It just happened so fast...," Isaac says looking down at his hands trying to get the image of the sword going through Ellie out of his mind.

At the Yukimura house, Stiles sat on the couch still in slight shock with Kira beside him.
"Here. It'll calm you," Noshiko tells him softly handing him a cup.
"What is it?" Stiles asks her softly.
"Tea," Noshiko tells him.
"What, like magic tea?" Stiles asks her confused making her shake her head.
"Wait is there magic tea?" Stiles asks Ellie who laughs at him.
"I guess you could say yes," Ellie tells him shrugging as Stiles look at her surprised.
"No...chamomile tea. Drink it," Noshiko tells him.
"He's not safe here," Ken tells his wife.
"He's not safe anywhere," Noshiko tells him looking towards Stiles.
Ellie pauses at that thinking before sighing in relief. She knew she would not die without making sure Stiles was okay.
Derek looks at her confused but she just smiles leaning more into him.
"But Allison killed one of them. Doesn't that mean something? She killed an Oni," Kira tells her parents.
"Is that even possible?" Ken asks his wife.
"I'm not sure how...," Noshiko says trailing off.
"But she did it--she killed one of them," Kira tells them.
"Yeah, and they killed Ellie," Stiles says making the family look toward him and Stiles's entire body deflates.
"Ellie's dead...," Stiles says to himself as he looks down at the bracelet on his wrist.
"Now, I guess the only good thing is it looks like I'm dying, too," Stiles says gulping slightly.
"If you die...I'll kill you," Ellie tells Stiles with a pointed look.
"He made a powerful move by splitting the two of you," Noshiko says looking at Stiles.
"So what's our move?" Kira asks her parents.
"At this point, you need a divine move," Ken tells the two.
"The only move left," Ellie says sighing.
"What's that? I think I remember Ellie talking about it once," Stiles says confused as Noshiko grabs a box opening it.
"In the game of Go, it's what we call a truly inspired, or out-of-the-box move. The Nogitsune had sente, the advantage, until this point. What you need is a divine move to turn the game around," Noshiko explains to him.
"Okay... So, is anyone feeling divinely inspired?" Stiles asks looking around at the family.
"Mom, you said you trapped it in a glass jar, right?" Kira asks her mom.
"It wasn't the jar that trapped it--it was where I buried it," Noshiko clarified to her daughter.
"The Nemeton...," Stiles says trailing off and looking at the woman.
"A place I don't know too much about," Noshiko tells him.
"Who does?" Kira asks looking at Stiles.
"Ellie. Ellie does...did," Stiles says trailing off before clearing his throat.
"Deaton," Stiles tells the family as he looks down at the bracelet.
"She was smart giving you that. It's helping fight him so your body doesn't have to do all the work," Noshiko tells Stiles who nods.
"Ellie was always a few steps ahead of everyone else," Stiles says his throat tight.
━━━━━━━━━━
Ellie walks through wherever she was trying to find some way out.
"Ellie," Anne-Marie says following the brunette exhausted.
"Nope! I'm dead. Which means I'm supposed to be surrounded by cake. Or reuniting with my mother. You know something like that not in this weird place with my ancestor," Ellie says still walking as Anne-Marie appears in front of her.
"I mean...she's not wrong," Isaac says shrugging at her words.
"Ellie answers the question," Anne-Marie tells her making Ellie walk around her.
"What? I died. Yes, I know that. I died in my boyfriend's arms with my twin right beside me. Fun right?" Ellie says rolling her eyes at the woman who sighs at her.
"She's done with you," Stiles tells Ellie who shrugs at his words.
"Ellie...," Anne-Marie says trailing off to the girl.
"Anne-Marie...," Ellie says in the same tone.
"Sister. I told you she's too much like you," a voice says making Ellie turn to her wide-eyed.
"Alright! What the fuck is happening?" Ellie exclaims seeing a woman with her twin's face.
"Sorry, Ellie. I'm Marie-Jeanne. Your sister's ancestor," Marie-Jeanne says making Ellie nod at her words a bit creeped out due to the two.
"Now Ellie when you...died what did you do right before? And for who?" Marie-Jeanne asks the girl walking towards her as Ellie gulps at her words.
"The butterfly," Liam whispers looking towards Ellie and then to Stiles. A butterfly came from Ellie's hand and then disappeared into Stiles.
"I casted a spell," Ellie whispers making Marie-Jeanne nod.
"For who?" Anne-Marie asks her making Ellie reach her hand up to play with her necklace.
"For Stiles. I casted a spell for Stiles," Ellie tells them making the two look at her.
Stiles looks towards Ellie who wouldn't meet his eyes.
"What did you do?" Stiles asks her making Ellie sigh.
"I completed the spell from earlier. I only gave you half of my life force then. When I died I gave you the rest so it'll buy you time till they can save you," Ellie tells Stiles with a shrug.
"I wouldn't change anything. I would die either way. That way I could make sure you lived," Ellie tells him softly as Stiles looks at her with tears in his eyes.
━━━━━━━━━━
Scott Deaton and Lydia walk into the animal clinic.
"Stiles and Kira said it was the Nemeton that kept it trapped," Scott says towards Deaton.
"The problem is, this isn't even a person you're fighting--it just looks like one. It's a spirit that's taken the shape of a human," Deaton tells Scott.
"The shape of my best friend. I promised Ellie before she died I would save him. I'm not breaking that promise," Scott tells Deaton who looks at him sadly.
Scott looks towards Ellie and Stiles and nods his head. He would keep his promise.
"Someone caught it once. Someone can do it again, right?" Lydia asks looking towards Deaton.
"I don't know...this thing was trapped a long time ago before the Nemeton was cut down. It doesn't have the same power anymore and the power it did have went into Ellie to save her," Deaton explains to the two.
"Wait...what?" Stiles's questions confused.
"That's why...that why's the Nemeton kept me alive," Ellie whispers wide-eyed as all the dots connected.
Why Void Stile kept attacking her. Why the Nemeton kept her alive. It was because she was the only way to get rid of him.
"Is there anything that does?" Scott asks Deaton hopefully.
"Possibly...," Deaton says pausing as if he was thinking.
"When the tree was whole, its wood was sometimes used to contain powerful objects. But those objects are very rare," Deaton says as Lydia begins to think.
"Wait a second--powerful objects? Like an Alpha's claws?" Lydia asks him making Deaton look at her confused.
"...Which Alpha?" Deaton asks her making Lydia pause for a moment.
"Talia Hale," Lydia says making Scott and Deaton look at her surprised.
"Sorry for just offering you up like that," Lydia tells her sheepishly.
"It's all sweetheart. You do whatever you need to do to get rid of that monster," Talia tells Lydia with a small smile making her smile back at her.
"Peter had them in this wooden box with a triskele carved on the lid. What if it was made from the Nemeton?" Lydia questions as Deaton looks down at her words.
"It was," Deaton tells them making Scott look at him with slightly wide eyes.
"How do you know?" Scott asks him.
"Because I made it," Deaton tells him after a moment.
"Wait... Mom, how close were you and Deaton?" Cora asks her mom slightly disgusted by the need as Talia looks at her three kids.
"A woman has needs," Talia says making all three of them including Peter look at her disgusted.
"You just had to ask," Laura says glaring at Cora.
━━━━━━━━━━
"So where am I?" Ellie questions sitting on the grass as she picks at the grass her two ancestors sitting beside her.
"Bardo. Which means-," Anne-Marie begins to say.
"Between life and death," Ellie says although confused.
"Now I know how you feel," Anne-Marie tells her twin who nods at her.
"But...how I died. I remember it all. I remember the...sword," Ellie says gulping as the two look at her sadly.
Derek holds her closer to him as Allison squeezes her pinky at those words.
"Ellie, do you know the history of the Argent twins?" Marie-Jeanne asks her making Ellie look at her confused.
"How Anne-Marie sacrificed herself for you. And due to that the guardian was born," Ellie tells her as the two nod at her.
"It was made because twins share a special bond. They share basically the same soul," Marie-Jeanne tells her softly.
"Which means Argent twins are each other's demise...but they are also each other's salvation," Anne-Marie tells her making Ellie just stare at them.
"Half of you is dead Ellie. But the other half is still alive. Allison is still alive," Anne-Marie tells her as tears appear in Ellie's eyes.
Ellie and Allison look at each but trying not to sob at those words as Chris chuckles sadly at them. His little girls.
━━━━━━━━━━
At Beacon Hills Hospital Void Stiles walk through the hallway towards the reception desk.
"Hi, there. Could you page Melissa McCall for me, please?" Void Stiles asks the male nurse as the two Oni's appear bedside them before one stabs the nurse.
Melissa gasps covering her hand with her mouth in disbelief as the nurse falls down to the ground.
"Well... I guess I'll just find her myself," Void Stiles says glaring at the Oni's.
Ellie begins to laugh making everyone look at her.
"He looks...he looks like a disappointed dad!" Ellie says laughing loudly making everyone look at her weirdly.
Void Stiles and the Oni begin walking down the hallway the Oni's killing everyone they come across while Void Stiles just watches it all.
At the sheriff's station, the same thing happens. Oni's appearing and slicing everyone there. Poisoning them with their blade.
Scott and Stiles look at their parents worriedly.
━━━━━━━━━━
At the Argent apartment, Chris walks into Ellie's room to see Allison in her bed holding Ellie's pillow close to her while staring down at the picture frame of the two.
"Hey...," Chris says softly but Allison doesn't look up at him.
"...I want to hate her. Hate her for dying but-but how can I hate someone who is dead? Who died for me?" Allison questions her dad who walks towards her sitting down on the bed.
"She told me. To hate her because he knew I would want to," Allison tells her dad who chuckles at her.
"Sounds like Ellie. She was always a few steps ahead of everyone else," Chris says rubbing his finger over the picture frame as Allison tense up.
"A few steps ahead," Allison whispers before jumping up making Chris confused as Allison hurries downstairs.
"Allison!" Chris yells as he race after. Allison walks in and looks towards where Ellie and her once sat making their molds.
"Ellie... she told me. She told me to use that arrow. The arrow that killed the Oni. It was the silver one. The one we made," Allison says turning to her dad who looks at her.
"We were trying to figure it out. Ellie did! She knew! She was trying to tell me but she didn't have enough time," Allison says quickly making Chris place his hands on her shoulders.
"Allison. Breathe. Tell me what?" Chris asks her as Allison takes a deep breath.
"When you shot the Oni. It didn't kill him it only broke his mask. But the reason why was because it has to stay in the body. It poisons them!" Allison tells her dad who pauses at her words.
"That's what Ellie was trying to tell me to tell you! She figured it out! Ellie knew!" Allison tells her dad looking towards her four arrowheads.
"We could stop them," Allison tells her dad who shakes his head.
"No...," Chris tells her making Allison look at him.
"We can kill them," Chris tells his daughter who nods at them. A silent promise passed between the two.
For Ellie.
"So cute you two. And Allie I knew you would figure it out," Ellie tells her twin smiling at her and making Allison smile slightly back at her.
━━━━━━━━━━
Still at the Animal Clinic, Scott stands beside Lydia and Deaton as he calls Derek waiting for him to pick up.
"Scott?" Peter's voice could be heard making Scott confused.
"Peter? Where Derek?" Scott asks him making Lydia look up at him.
Peter on the other side of the room looks towards Derek who was just standing looking out the balcony windows while he clutched onto Ellie's necklace.
Derek looks towards Ellie before turning her head slightly towards him making Ellie confused.
"I love you," Derek tells Ellie who looks at him in disbelief.
"I love you too," Ellie whispers to her kissing his lips softly.
"What do you need?" Peter asks him staring at his nephew.
"We figured out how to get rid of Void Stiles. We just need somewhere to put him. We need the box with his mother's claws in them. It was made from the Nemeton," Scott tells Peter who sighs looking down before the phone was taken to him.
"Where do I need to meet you?" Derek questions Scott his voice rough and with no emotion in it.
"The high school," Scott tells Derek who hangs up the phone not replying.
"Come on. Let's go kill the son of bitches," Peter tells Derek who nods his head at him.
"We'll help," Aiden and Ethan say stepping into the loft.
"Why?" Derek asks them as the two shrugs.
"It's Ellie," Aiden tells him as if it was common sense making Derek pause but nod.
"Ellie," Peter says chuckling and shaking his head wondering how he went from hating all Argents to risking his life to avenge him.
━━━━━━━━━━
"Derek's got the triskele box. He's gonna meet us," Scott tells them when suddenly Lydia suddenly gets dizzy as she clutches the necklace around her neck.
"What's wrong?" Deaton asks her looking at the necklace around her neck closely.
"Something's happening...," Lydia whispers making the two look at her worriedly.
"I had this sudden rushing feeling like we're running out of time," Lydia tells them as Stiles walks in his arm around Isaac's and Kira's shoulder who was holding him up.
"Yeah...Yeah, I kind of got that feeling, too," Stiles says out of breath making the group share a look.
━━━━━━━━━━
"Ellie...you have a choice. To stay and go to peace. Where you have no more fighting. No one worries. True happiness," Anne-Marie tells her softly as Ellie paces.
"Or you can go back," Marie-Jeannie tells her as Ellie pauses looking at them.
"With the Argent curse still on me? That means doing the same thing to everyone again in a few years," Ellie tells them as the two girls shake their heads.
"No, Ellie. You died. Your soul died which means you can go back. Ellie, you're stuck here because a part of you wants to go back. It wants to live," Anne-Marie tells her as Ellie looks down at her necklace.
"And you might get a few surprises when you return. We Argent twins look after our own. I mean you're powerful Ellie but do you think your powerful enough to actually beat a pack of alphas while weakened?" Marie-Jeannie asks her amused as Ellie looks at her surprised
"Wait you two gave me alpha abilities?!" Ellie yells as they shrug.
"You needed it. Like my twin said. We look after our own," Anne-Marie tells her as Ellie smiles at her.
Ellie gulps looking between the two and then down at her necklace before sighing and nodding her head at the row.
"I want-," Ellie begins to say before the scene goes black.
"Oh come on!" Liam yells throwing popcorn angrily.
━━━━━━━━━━
"Scott, wait...," Stiles says as they ran to the school doors making everyone turn towards him. Stiles had his arm around Lydia's shoulders while she helped him upright.
Isaac race after them and the boy suddenly trips over nothing.
"Damn it! Could you not start haunting me now?!" Issac yells into nothing making everyone looks at him unamused.
"What? Ellie promised to haunt me when she died after I ate her cake. And she's starting already!" Issac yells annoyed making the group stare at him and look away.
"Oh I definitely will," Ellie tells Isaac who gulps at her words.
"I know what you're all thinking-- if this works, it might kill me, too. But even if it does, you have to go through with it. Stick with the plan, okay?" Stiles tells Scott making him shake his head.
Ellie slaps Stiles over the head with a glare as he looks at her sheepishly.
"The plan is to save you--that's—that was Ellie's plan. That's the plan I'm going with," Scott tells Stiles who pauses but hesitantly.
Scott pushes the school doors open only to reveal a snow-covered Japanese garden.
"What the hell?" Stilesquestions confused.
"He's playing with you," Ellie tells Stiles who nods at her.
"If you pay close enough attention you will realize it is an allusion," Ellie explains to the ground.
Slowly everyone enters looking around. The sound of the door closing behind them made them turn to look at them before looking at each other:
"Oh, this is definitely not part of the plan...," Stiles says staring at the garden worriedly.
━━━━━━━━━━
Slowly Derek walks towards the high school with the box his werewolf face present as Void Stiles along with two Oni's sat on the stairs making Derek glare at them full of rage.
"Did you bring us a present?" Void Stiles asks him amused. Derek places the box down before looking at him as Aiden Ethan and Peter appear beside him.
"I brought three," Derek tells him making Void Stiles stare at them.
"I've heard of an Alpha Pack, Derek, but not a pack of former Alphas...It's a little sad, isn't it?" Void Stiles asks him taunting him making Peter glare even harder at him as the four move closer to the three.
"I might not be an Alpha anymore, but I can still fight like one," Derek tells him before he roars and the Oni move their swords. Afterward Peter Aiden and Ethan roar following him.
None noticed the sky changing slightly. Instead of a dark starry night, everything was turning red.
━━━━━━━━━━
Inside the illusion, the group suddenly hears steps on the ground making them turn to see a man covered from head to toe with dirty bandages, silver teeth, and an old leather military jacket.
"Rhys," Noshiko says looking at her older lover.
The Nostigue slowly turns to them and then begins to walk toward them.
"Like I promised, Stiles... We're going to kill all of them, one by one...," The Nostigue says his voice getting louder by the moment when suddenly an Oni appears in front of Kira and swings his sword, but Kira quickly blocks it with hers.
Ken and Noshiko look at their daughter worriedly.
Five other Oni's appeared, boxing the group in the middle.
"What the hell is this? Where are we?" Scott asks looking at the Nostigue.
"Between life and death," The Nogitsune tells them.
"Bardo," Lydia says realizing where they were.
"But, there are no peaceful deities here, Lydia," The Nogitsune tells her as he shakes a finger at her.
"You're dying, Stiles... And now, everyone you care about is dying, too. Just like Ellie did," The Nogitsune says making Stiles glare at him full of anger before processing his words.
"That little asshole!" Ellie yells angrily at the screen.
"What? What do you mean?" Stiles asks him scared of the answer. He couldn't lose anyone else.
"I've captured almost all of the territories on the board, Stiles--the hospital, the sheriff's station, and now the animal clinic," The Nogitsune tells the group making them all look at him wide-eyed.
"Alright! If he kills anyone I care about I'm killing him! Well, I'm killing him anyways but still," Ellie says huffing as Derek smiles softly at her.
"Do you know the ritual of seppuku, Stiles?" The Nogitsune asks him as he paces in front of the group.
"Oh that little-," Ellie says about to rant as Derek places a hand over her mouth stopping whatever words she was about to say.
"No... And I don't want to...," Stiles tells him done with his games.
"When a samurai disembowels himself with his own sword to maintain his honor. But that's not the cut that kills him--the killing stroke is made by his kaishakunin, who beheads the samurai with his own katana."
"Scott... Scott is your kaishakunin," The Nogitsune says pouting at Scott.
"I'm going to make your best friend kill you, Stiles. It was supposed to be Eleanor but she already sacrificed everything for you," the Nogitsune tells Stiles who looks towards Scott who was already staring at him.
"And you're going to let him...Because, just like you, just like Ellie, they're all going to die. Everyone touched by an Oni's blade...Unless Scott kills you, first," the Nogitsune says now face to face with Stiles.
"Why? Why are you doing this?" Stiles asks him looking right into his eyes.
"To win the game," The Nogitsune tells him when suddenly, the Oni's began to turn around their swords, preparing to attack.
Scott and Isaac the wolf out growling as Kira raises her katana.
Stiles shields Lydia as they duck away from the Oni's while Issac Scott and Kira try to fight them.
"How is this happening? How are we doing in this place?" Scott shouts as Kira Issac and him are back to back.
"You're asking me? A month ago, I hadn't even touched a sword!" Kira tells him.
Outside the school, the four wolves fight the Oni's as Void Stiles watch them from afar.
"Where the hell are they?" Ethan yell fighting the oni.
"The Jeep's here. They have to be somewhere," Aiden answers his twin.
"In the school!" Derek yells at them punching an oni in the face repeatedly getting all his anger out.
"That really shouldn't have been as hot as it was," Ellie whispers to Derek who smirks at her.
Into the illusion, the three continue to fight as Lydia shakes her head.
"This can't be real...," Lydia says breathlessly.
"Yeah, tell that to them!" Stiles tells her panting slightly getting weaker.
Outside the high school, an oni kicks Derek making him fall into the stairs before he kicks it away from him.
"You have to get on the box. Someone get on the box!" Derek yells toward the group. Aiden looks towards the box only to see two Oni's appearing protecting it.
"I hate ninjas...," Aiden says before growling and heading towards them.
"I felt that," Isaac says nodding his head as he eats some popcorn.
Suddenly, one of the Oni makes Kira lose her katana and now he was cornered by two of them.
Kira's parents look at her worriedly as she sighs.
Stiles watches everything before he suddenly moves away from Lydia and grabs Kira's katana.
"Stiles?" Lydia asks concerned as Stiles slowly brings the katana to his stomach making her look at him wide-eyed.
Ellie begins hitting Stiles repeatedly across the back of the head.
"Oww! Okay I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Ellie stop!" Stiles tells her making her glare at him.
"Stiles! No!" Scott yells at him as Stiles looks at them.
"What if it saves you? What if it saves all of you?" Stiles asks shaking as Lydia shakes her head.
"What if it's just another trick?" Lydia asks him looking at Stiles terrified.
"No more tricks, Lydia. End it, Scott. Let your friend fall on his own sword. Do for him what he cannot do for himself. Do it, Scott-- be his kaishakunin. Give up the game," The Nogitsune says and as Stiles prepares to do so he looks at his bracelet Ellie gave him and saw a reflection in it.
Looking toward the left Stiles sees an introduction to business textbook along with a desk and a memory appears in his head.
"When you believe you have no moves left Stiles you still have one," Ellie tells him as she sits beside him in the hospital bed his head on her shoulder almost asleep.
"Told you it would save you," Ellie tells Stiles who laughs at her.
"Yeah, what's that?" Stiles asks her sleepy making her smile.
"A divine move," Ellie tells him making Stiles confused.
"A what move?" Stiles asks her making her laugh at him.
"A divine move. It balances strategy and tactics to create an unexpected turning point in a game. Sometimes that's all you need," Ellie tells Stiles before looking at him seeing him asleep making her laugh at him.
Stiles comes back and stares at the bracelet with a soft smile on his face.
"You have no moves left," The Nogitsune tells him as Stiles begins lowering the sword.
"I do," Stiles says before throwing Kira her sword and then looking straight at the Nogitsune.
"A divine move," Stiles says making the Nogitsune snarl at him angrily.
"The only move left to make," Ellie tells Stiles who nods his head.
Outside the school, the four continue to fight.
"We can't do this! We can't beat them!" Aiden yells blood coming out of his mouth.
"Take the box, we'll hold them off!" Ethan tells his twin holding his arm that was cut. Suddenly an oni goes to attack him but Derek gets to him first.
"RAWRRR!" Derek says as the oni heads towards him but suddenly an arrow goes through the air and into the oni. Killing him.
"What was that?" Derek asks looking straight at Allison who had the bow with Chris beside her.
"Wait wait wait. Did Papa Argent just save Sourwolf?" Stiles exclaims making the two glare at him.
"No, I did!" Allison tells him offended.
"Silver," Chris tells him as Allison looks right at Derek.
"Ellie," Allison tells Derek who smiles slightly before looking back at where the Oni once was.
━━━━━━━━━━
"Stop fighting them! It's an illusion!" Stiles tells the group who stare at him.
"You have to stop fighting them. It looks real and it feels real, but Scott, you gotta trust me--it's an illusion," Stiles tells him as Lydia helps hold him up.
Isaac Scott and Kira slowly began to walk to the door, snarling and screaming as the Oni cut them with their swords.
Melissa and Kira's parents look at the screen wide-eyed and terrified as Ellie holds Isaac closer to him worriedly.
Scott gets to the Oni first and growls as he pushes him out the door where they suddenly appear back in the hallways of Beacon Hills High. No cuts, no blood, nothing, as if it had never happened.
"We're okay. We're...," Scott says before he was but suddenly cut off being thrown into the lockers, causing everyone to turn around to see Void Stiles hit Kira and throw Issac into the lockers beside Scott.
Lydia quickly wraps her arms around Stiles as Void looks towards them.
"This was my game. You think you can beat me at my game?" Void asks them.
━━━━━━━━━━
Outside the school, Allison continues killing Oni's with a smirk on her face as Chris watches making sure none try to attack her. Missing something entering the school.
Allison fires an arrow but the oni cuts it before it can kill him.
"Get the arrow! It's the last one!" Chris yells before Allison pulls something out of her back pocket.
"Derek!" Allison yells throwing a silver dagger towards him that Derek catches looking at the small E.A carved into it and turning towards the Oni stabbing it right into its chest.
"That's for Ellie," Derek says growling out before pulling it out and all the Oni's gone.
"So sweet!" Ellie tells Derek pinching his cheek.
"Are we just going to ignore what just entered the school?" Liam questions before shrugging when no one answers.
━━━━━━━━━━
"Divine move... A divine movement? Do you think you have any movement? You can kill the Oni, but me? Me? I'm a thousand years old, you can't kill me!" Void yells walking towards them making Lydia and Stiles walk backward.
Suddenly a growl was heard making the three look behind where Lydia and Stiles were and seeing a grey wolf with red eyes.
Slowly the wolf begins to turn into a human and there stands Ellie dressed in front of them with a glare on her save.
"Did you really think you could get rid of me that easy? I'm much harder to kill," Ellie says kicking Void right in the chest and making him fly back.
No one says anything before a squeal was heard and Allison hugs her twin tightly.
"You are going into a bubble!" Allison exclaims hugging Ellie tightly to her making Ellie laugh before more arms were wrapped around her hugging her tightly.
"You were dead," Void says looking at Ellie wide-eyed.
"Yeah. That wasn't so much fun. But don't worry you will experience it soon," Ellie tells him smirking.
"Le specto tre colo ves bestia," Ellie says making Void hold his chest as he gasps.
"That me crushing your heart. Hurts right?" Ellie smirks making Void glare at her.
"I wouldn't do that. I also have a few tricks from some friends. Something you don't have," Ellie says her eyes glowing red.
"Let's have some fun," Ellie says as her bones begin to break and there stands Ellie's wolf growling at Void before she attacks him.
Void screams as Ellie bites his arm making him scream before she turns back human.
"Eww. Even your blood fast disgusting," Ellie says wiping her mouth.
Void gasps before he suddenly just turns to dust and a fly comes out of his mouth Ellie catches it before stepping on it.
"That was...badass!" Allison exclaims smiling brightly.
"That was very sexy," Derek whispers in Ellie's ear making her smile at him blushing.
"Ignarious," Ellie says catching the firefly on fire and it turns to dust Ellie begins to turn around but doesn't get the chance as two pair of arms wrap around her.
"Oh thank you for not leaving me with these people! I couldn't handle it!" Lydia exclaims making Ellie laugh as she hugs her tightly.
"Hey!" Stiles yells at her offended as Ellie shrugs.
"Don't ever do that again. I thought I lost you. For good," Stiles tells her as his voice breaks. Ellie hugs them both tightly trying not to cry.
"You could never lose me," Ellie tells Stiles who smiles at her.
"I missed you too," Ellie tells them as they hug her tightly the three then hear groans making them turn to see Issac and Scott getting up and Scott helping Kira.
"Well, you guys missed all the fun," Ellie exclaims making them turn to her wide-eyed.
"He killed me! I'm dead!" Isaac yells running his hands through his hair.
Everyone laughs loudly at Isaac who blushes but shrugs. He really thought he was dead.
"You're not dead you dummy!" Ellie yells at him laughing as Scott stares at her before rushing to hug her. Ellie chuckles as Stiles spins her around smiling brightly.
Scott was pushed away and Issac hugs Ellie tightly. Ellie chuckles as Scott looks at Issac offended but shakes his head.
"I thought I was going to be haunted for the rest of my life!" Isaac exclaims making everyone shakes their heads at him as Ellie ruffles his hair.
"You were going to be," Ellie tells him patting his cheek as everyone laughs at Isaac's wide-eyed expression.
"Definitely," Ellie says patting his cheek as Isaac shakes his head at her.
Ellie suddenly pauses before a bright smile overcomes her face before she runs out towards the exit.
"Allie!" Ellie yells making Allison turn to her with wide eyes and tears in her eyes.
"Ellie?" Chris whispers out in disbelief as Ellie suddenly hugs both of them tightly making them both hug her back.
Chris pulls back cupping Ellie's cheeks before crying as he pulls her close to him.
Allison and Ellie tear up hugging each other tightly as Chris smiles at them softly.
"You're here," Chris says making Ellie nod.
"I'm here. I'm alive," Ellie says making him chuckle before hugging her again.
"How? You what I don't care!" Allison says hugging Ellie once again who laughs at her. Ellie pulls back and sees Derek watching her in disbelief.
"Hi handsome," Ellie says softly as he stares at her before running towards her. Derek picks her spinning Ellie around as he listens to her heartbeat chuckling.
Derek stares at Ellie before kissing her lips as Ellie wraps her arms around his neck.
"I told you. I never break a promise," Ellie tells Derek who rubs his cheek resting his head against hers.
"I love you," Derek says making Ellie smile at him softly rubbing his cheek.
"I love you too," Ellie tells him softly before hugging him tightly.
Once the two pull back everyone smiles at each other.
"So is now a good time to tell you...I might have destroyed your room?" Allison asks sheepishly as Ellie opens and closes her mouth.
"Allison!" Ellie yells at her making Allison shrug but Ellie just smiles looking at everyone and then up at the sky with a peaceful expression on her face.
Derek smiles at Ellie as Eli sticks his head out of the room.
"Can we come out now?" Eli asks surprising everyone.
"I forgot about them," Ellie whispers making Allison nod.
"Me too," Allison says before they laugh.
"Yeah you can," Derek tells his son who smiles coming out of the room followed by his siblings.
