All's well that ends well.
Summary: "Can someone please come and take this gigantic shard of glass out of my chest? Please?"
Hurt!Stiles
Season 5 finale episode 20 Apotheosis.
Note: So the finale was epic. I just think that there should have been a little more coverage of Stiles's injuries. He had a "gigantic shard of glass in his chest" after all. We even saw Chris dressing Gerard's injuries but nothing of Stiles'. So this is my way of dealing with it.

They all had a plan and everyone had a part to play in it. Stiles's part was to deliver Belako's talons that Scott gave him to Malia and to help her and Braeden fight The Desert Wolf.
He was in the hospital with Lydia, helping her get ready to play her part. Scott gave him the talons saying that he was working on them for a while and that they will help Malia. Stiles was doubtful at first saying that their Plan-A's never worked but believed Scott when he said, with those earnest eyes of his that this time it will work. So he left the hospital holding the package for dear life.
When he reached Malia's, Stiles hadn't expected the first thing he saw to be the Desert wolf pointing a gun at him as soon as he opened the door nor had he expected her to fire the gun in the blink of an eye; but things never happen as Stiles expect them to, do they? He knew that the desert Wolf was a good shot and that she would not miss even if he tried to duck out of the trajectory of the bullet or with Malia coming out of her hiding spot to push him out of the way.
The next thing he knew was lying on the floor with a sharp pain in his stomach, the blood hidden under the red t-shirt that he wore and Malia getting up from his side to face her mother again. So, she did manage to tackle him, guess she wasn't faster than the bullet travelling from the gun. Stiles clutched on to his stomach to stop the blood flow and tried to get up to help Malia. He saw Malia lying on the floor. He had to help her. She was his friend and Stiles wasn't going to lose anyone else he loved. He got up from behind the sofa and tried to attack the Desert wolf. He knew that he couldn't do much against a coyote but at least he could buy some time for Malia to regroup; He had to do something, he couldn't leave Malia on her own; he had his part to play; he won't be the fragile human that got his friends killed. So, he got up ignoring the pain and jumped up the couch to attack the coyote. She overpowered him and pushed him into a pile of glass shards.
Great. Now there were even more open wounds than Stiles's two hands could hold against along with a huge-ass shard of glass that had embedded itself deep in Stiles's chest. The blood loss was making him light headed and the glass shard in his chest was making it difficult to breath. He was going in shock. At least he couldn't feel the pain any more. He was losing consciousness. He thought he heard Malia calling his name. That got him to focus. He had to help Malia, his job wasn't done yet. He had to give her Belako's talons. He heard gunshots again. This time the desert wolf was shooting Malia. Stiles called Malia's name and threw the talons at her.
Malia overpowered her mother using the talons and Braeden came and knocked her out.
They had done it. His work was done here. Now he can rest.
With last of his energy reserves he asked, "Can someone please come and take this gigantic shard of glass out of my chest? Please?" his voice cracked and talking was getting difficult. "Also...I am shot", he got the last part out a little above a whisper. He hopes Malia heard him.
He saw Braeden, clutching her own bloody stomach and Malia walk towards him before he lost consciousness.
TBC.
Note: Should I continue? Should we bring Derek back since Braeden is also injured? Any suggestions? let me know! Reviews and kudos appreciated.
