A while later Allison and Ellie arrive at their house. Allison looks at Ellie as she walks up the staircase.
Ellie makes eye contact with her and nods making Allison hesitate before walking towards her room.
Chris looks at his daughters wondering what they were planning. For even though Ellie was the more ruthless twin at times both were Argents and both were just as ruthless and dangerous as the other.
Ellie takes a deep breath before she walks towards her father's office seeing the light on.
Walking in she saw her mother with her arm bandaged talking with her father and Gerard.
Hearing the door creak up the three look to see Ellie standing there with an emotionless expression on her face.
"Ellie," Chris and Victoria say looking at their daughter but she just looks at her mother.
"Gerard leave. This is family business. Not yours," Ellie tells him sternly as Gerard looks at her.
"And you might be blood but you are not family," Ellie tells him as Gerard gets up and leaves looking at Ellie as he does but she doesn't take her eyes off her mother.
Chris chuckles at that shaking his head at his daughter's bluntness.
"So it's true," Ellie states whether then questions as her father nods and her mother just looks at her.
"Yes," Victoria tells Ellie who just looks at her with an emotionless look.
"And I'm guessing you made your decision," Ellie states with her jaw clenched as Victoria nods her head.
"And you are just going to leave your daughters. Just die," Ellie states as she scoffs shaking her head.
"Eleanor," Chris warns as Victoria shakes her head.
"Dad," Ellie says in the same warning tone as Chris sighs.
Victoria walks towards her daughter and cups her cheeks as Ellie looks her in the eyes.
"I'm so sorry Ellie. For not being the mother you deserved. For not seeing your point of view. Maybe if I did things would be different. Maybe everything could have been," Victoria tells her making Ellie break as she begins to tear up.
"Please don't leave me, mommy," Ellie begs as she sobs. Victoria pulls her into a tight hug tears in her own eyes.
Ellie hugs Allison tightly as many look at the girls sadly and Derek looks down. He knows what it is like to lose a mother and he was taking Ellie's from her.
"Oh, my sweet little girl. You will have no idea how proud I am of you. How strong you became. You became such an amazing warrior and you never lost that heart of yours that makes you, you," Victoria tells her as Ellie sobs.
"And no matter where I go after my death only know the best parts of me will forever live in you. You will continue to grow and become the woman I always knew you could be," Victoria tells Ellie as the two pull back.
Victoria wipes her daughter's tears as Ellie leans into her hand.
"I promise mom I'll make you proud," Ellie tells her making Victoria shake her head looking at her daughter.
"You already have," Victoria tells Ellie who smiles at her sadly.
"I love you mom," Ellie tells her Victoria smiles at her.
"I love you too my sweet girl," Victoria tells Ellie as the two hug once again neither wanting to let go. Chris watches the two with a sad expression trying his hardest not to break himself.
For he knew the two had a rough relationship ever since Ellie found out what the supernatural was. Victoria wanted her to hate them while Ellie saw the good.
Neither could change the other's mind and no matter how hard he tried the two were two stubborn.
Ellie smiles sadly at her parents once more before leaving the room. Ellie pasts her grandfather as she does a look of determination on her face as she heads towards Allison's room.
The second she enters Ellie heads towards Allison as the two lay down in the younger Argent's bed.
"We can pull this off right?" Allison asks Ellie who looks at her.
"We will," Ellie tells her as Allison lays her head on Ellie's shoulder.
Everyone looks towards the twins who look at each other slightly.
"We have to," Ellie says as the twins share a look and nod. They will do it.
"And don't forget we're Ellie and Allison Argent. We can do anything we can put our mind to," Ellie tells Allison who sighs as she nods.
"And we can't tell anyone?" Allison asks wanting to tell Scott or their dad someone but Ellie sighs as she shakes her head.
"They won't like it and definitely won't agree, but it's what has to be done. Trust me, Allie. I promise you everything will be alright," Ellie tells her as Allison sighs but nods.
"I trust you," Allison says making Ellie nod as she looks at her ceiling worriedly. Hopefully, this was the right thing to do.
"Eleanor, what are you planning?" Chris asks her as Ellie just look towards the screen not saying anything.
━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━
"No, I should stay here! Lydia will have plenty of birthdays. Mom has one last day," Ellie tells her dad firmly who shakes his head.
The two have been having this conversation for a while Chris not wanting his daughter to watch what was going to happen when the moon meets its peak and Ellie not wanting to leave.
"You don't need to be here for this," Chris tells Ellie who looks at him worriedly.
"But who is going to be there for you daddy?" Ellie asks her voice breaking slightly. Chris pulls her into a hug as Ellie sighs in relief hugging him back.
"I'll be alright sweetheart. I promise," Chris tells her kissing his daughter's forehead. Ellie sighs as she hugs him back.
"I love you, dad," Ellie tells him as Chris smiles at her.
"I love you too sweetheart," Chris tells her as Ellie walks away. Chris watches her go sadly with a small smile on her face.
"I should be there," Ellie says as Chris sighs shaking his head at the girl.
━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━
Ellie arrives late to the Martin house for Lydia's party dressed in a light color jean skirt with a lace black top with a light cardigan over it with her hair curled.
Walking in Ellie sees the house packed and looks for strawberry blonde hair. Once she spots her Ellie rushes over to her.
"Happy Birthday!" Ellie cheers bringing Lydia into a tight hug who laughs hugging her back. Ellie pulls back with a bright smile on her face as she jumps slightly.
"It's kind of concerning how good of an actress you are," Stiles tells Ellie who shrugs at that.
"Now open it!" Ellie cheers handing Lydia her gift. Lydia smiles brightly as she opens the gift and smiles looking at it.
"I love it," Lydia says as she sees the golden heart locket making Ellie smiles as she gestures for Lydia to open it.
Lydia opens it to see a picture of herself and Ellie making her smile.
"Ellie I love it," Lydia tells her making Ellie smile at her.
Ellie grabs the necklace and puts it on Lydia's neck with a bright smile.
"It's to make quiet things heard Lyds," Ellie tells her as she hugs her once more.
Ellie smiles at that knowing it meant she spelled the locket. It was spelled with a simple spell that if Lydia even whispered Ellie's name she would hear it.
Quiet things heard.
Lydia smiles hugging Ellie once again before they pull away and Lydia offers her a drink.
"You'll love it," Lydia tells her as Ellie looks at it and nods taking a sip before drowning it all in one go.
"Another please?" Ellie asks as Lydia smiles handing Ellie another drink. Ellie not even noticing the purple flower floating in the drink.
"Lydia...I think you just drugged me," Ellie whispers as everyone looks wide-eyed.
"That's wolfsbane petals mixed with alcohol which causes people to hallucinate the things they fear most," Ellie tells her as Lydia looks at the screen horrified.
━━━━━ ✧༺✶༻✧ ━━━━━
"Allie!" Ellie yells as she stumbles towards her sister who looks at her wide-eyed.
"I might have had a few drinks," Ellie whispers as she chuckles.
"Drunk Ellie is funny," Allison says making Ellie roll her eyes at her.
"Wait when have you been drunk?" Chris asks his daughter who just begins whistling looking anywhere but at him.
"I see that," Allison says as she shakes her head. Ellie lays her head on Allison's shoulder as they sway slightly.
"Ellie, can we talk?" A voice comes up behind the two making the twins look to see Matt standing there.
"Whatever you need to say to me you can say to Allison. We don't keep secrets from each other," Ellie states sternly as Allison smiles at her.
"We literally tell each other everything. Everything. Besides the whole supernatural and dying before I'm 23 thingy," Ellie says nodding her head as Allison laughs at her.
"Okay...Uh, right," Matt says as he rubs the back of his neck nervously.
"So, I know I took some pictures of you that I should've told you about... But, is it really that bad that I think you're beautiful, and I think you should be the subject of a perfect photograph?" Matt asks as Ellie and Allison look at him in disbelief.
"Is he serious?" Lydia asks wide-eyed as Ellie just looks at the screen in disbelief.
"Matt, some of those pictures, I don't even know how you took them of me. I don't even have the slightest idea how I didn't see you considering how personal they are," Ellie states as she scoffs annoyed.
"Telephoto lens. I mean, come on, Ellie– photographers call them candids," Matt says smiling as if it was obvious and it made the situation better.
"Well, the police would call it stalking." Allison tries him with a glare as she pulls Ellie away from him slightly.
"Consent is a thing and you went beyond what it's even asked for. Do you need to be taught something a pre-K knows about?" Ellie asks him angrily as Matt scoffs at her.
"Stalking? So, I'm a stalker now, that's-is that it? You-you think my bedroom is wallpapered with your photos? You think I'm the kind of guy that's gonna say something, like, "Well, if I can't have you, no one can!"
Matt says as he raises his voice which made some onlookers glance their way.
"I don't like how his eyes looked when he said that," Stilinksi says looking at the boy while Chris nods agreeing with him.
Ellie glares as she steps towards him making Matt look at her slightly afraid.
"Good," Ellie says nodding her head.
"Don't push me, Matt. I know three different ways to inflict maximum pain with just my pinky. I also have a very overprotective father and an even more overprotective boyfriend. Do. Not. Test. Me," Ellie tells him sternly with a glare.
"Yeah I wouldn't do that," Liam whispers wide-eyed.
"Come on Allie," Ellie tells her twin grabbing her hand as she bumps shoulders with Matt walking away. As Ellie was walking away she somehow ended up in Lydia's backyard where no one was making her confused.
"All alone. Not surprising. You've always been able to push everyone away that was in your life," a voice says making Ellie turn to see herself looking at her.
Ellie was tense at that knowing what was being shown. Her deepest fear.
Herself.
"It's not a surprise is it really?" The other Ellie asks as she chuckles darkly.
"I mean why were you actually named the guardian? What do you guard?" Dark Ellie asks as circles Ellie who shakes her head.
"Stop," Ellie tells her making dark Ellie smirk.
"I mean Kate died because of you. Peter, you couldn't save. Now your own mother. Who's next? Derek? Dad? Or maybe Allison? You fail at the only thing you were ever meant to do," Dark Ellie says as she laughs making Ellie shake her head.
"That's not true. I tried to save them. I really did try and I will save Allison. No matter what," Ellie says with tears in her eyes as dark Ellie walks closer to her.
Allison squeeze Ellie's hand but she was numb looking at the screen.
"Really because it seems like you can't even save yourself. I mean your deepest fear is you. Because you know that everyone around will die. Because of you. Because you can't save anyone. You are the problem, Ellie. You always have been," Dark Ellie states before Ellie felt something stab her making her look down to see a sword in her stomach before it disappears anachronism Ellie gasps as she shoots up looking to see Stiles and Scott watching her worriedly.
"Ellie," Chris says calmly but Ellie just looks at the screen not saying anything.
"Hey, you're okay. You're okay," Stiles tells her as Ellie takes a deep breath checking to see if the sword was still in her. It felt so real to her. Like it was happening.
"What's going on?" Ellie asks as she looks at Stiles and Scott.
"Anyone who drank that crap, they're freaking out," Stiles informs the girl who looks around to see everyone acting wilder and crazier than normal.
"...I can see that," Scott says as he observes as people jumped into the pool.
"What the hell do we do?" Stiles asks looking at Ellie for some type of plan. Scott shook his head having no idea of what there is to do,
"I don't know, but we gotta–," Scott begins but he cut himself off by the frantic screaming coming from Matt.
The three watched as two guys manhandled him, grabbing him by each arm.
"I can't swim!" Matt yells panicked as Ellie looks wide-eyed.
"No, no, stop, guys! I can't swim! I can't swim! I can't-I can't–," Matt begged but was thrown into the water despite his struggle to break free from their grips.
Matt splashed around helplessly calling for help, not being able to keep himself up for any longer. It was only a few seconds when Jackson reached in to pull him out of the water.
"...What are you looking at?" Matt questions the now silent guests that stared at him.
"I fucking knew it," Ellie whispers wide-eyed as Matt stomps away.
"It's Matt. We were right Stiles. Ha, Scott!" Ellie cheers as she high-fives Stiles with a bright smile.
"Yes!" Stiles and Ellie exclaim high-fiving as everyone looks at the two having no words to say at all.
