Future

Landon Martin stands darkness, surrounded by water that appears to be running, but doesn't seem to go anywhere, "Tell me where you are, Landon." The voice of Dr. Valack echoes around him, as he treads through the water, "Tell me what you see."

Landon walks through the water, shaking from the cold water he feels seeping through his clothes. He continues walking, trying to figure where he is until he sees something familiar, "The bridge..."

"Keep moving." He instructs him, "Describe what you find." He urges, "Tell me what he did."

With a pulsing sensation, Landon sees two kids at the bridge. One is of Theo as he is watching sister drown in the water. Landon gasps, realizing that he is witnessing Theo watching his sister die as he stands on the bridge doing nothing. The vision gets hazy for a moment, "Stay focused, Landon."

Landon struggles to stay focused, but he also realizes something is not right. The incident itself happened years ago, "What did you do to me?"Landon demands to know aloud, while the scene continues to go on uninterrupted.

"I've amplified your abilities." Dr. Valack explains, looking at the trepanation hole he has made in Landon's head, "Something that might just save the lives of your friends." Landon shudders at the explanation, "Now focus on the bridge..." Dr. Valack presses, "On Theo. Why did he let his sister die?"

Landon watches the scene in front of him, "I don't know."

"You don't see it yet." Dr. Valack answers, "Search for it, Landon."

Landon continues watching, but nothing appears to give him a clue. The young girl calls out for the brother who will not save her, as she splashes in the water trying to stay afloat, "Keep looking. Why did he let her die? What did he want?"

The young girl finally sinks to the bottom, but just as soon as she sinks to the bottom, she submerges from the water in front of Landon, who lets out a scream when he sees she has a large gaping hole in her chest, where her ribs are visible. Theo's sister doesn't seem to be bothered by the fact she no longer has a heart.

"Her heart." Landon breathes out once he is over the shock, "He wanted her heart."

"There's no record of a heart condition." Dr. Valack shares, "But a transplant would make Theo a Genetic Chimera like the others." He theorizes, "The hypothermic conditions would keep the organ viable."

Landon's vision switches to a hidden lab, that is occupied by the Dread Doctors and a young Theo, who appears to be prepped for surgery, "Theo." Landon shudders as one of the Doctors holds up the heart.

"But why him?" Dr. Valack questions, "Why choose a 10-year-old willing to kill his own sister?"

"Why do you care?"

"Theo was a first step in the right direction for the Dread Doctors." Dr. Valack explains, "Think of who they are. Para scientists who have prolonged their lives and twisted the laws of nature in pursuit of one goal. The creation of the perfect killer. And now they've done it."

"But Theo doesn't know who the success is."Landon reminds him, "The last Chimera."

"It doesn't matter." Dr. Valack argues, "There's a reason they chose him, a reason he failed, a reason they changed their methods and a reason they succeeded. It all starts with Theo."

Meanwhile, the guards of Eichen House are experiencing an unexpected ambush. In the lobby of the institute, Tracy disables a guard using her Kanima venom. Josh disarms one guard by grabbing his taser and absorbing the electricity from it and then uses the absorbed electricity, shocking him unconscious. Corey becomes visible from where he has been camouflaged against the lobby wall.

But, the Orderly Schrader doesn't appear to notice any of the incidents occur and when he does look from the front desk, he sees the three teens entering the facility, "Visiting hours are well past over." He informs them before he can see them fully.

"We're not here to visit," Tracy tells him. He is taken back as Tracy steps out of the shadows, showing half of her Kanima form.

Josh and Corey move aside as Theo makes his way into the building, "We're here for Landon Martin."

Schrader then looks uncomfortable with a mix of slightly being terrified. Without wasting a second, Theo grabs the man and pulls him through the front desk window and throws him onto the floor.

"When did you know for sure?" Dr. Valack questions back in Landon's room, "That the Dread Doctors had succeeded?"

"Scott and Stiles found out that night."

"The night of the Supermoon." Dr. Valack points out.

"But they didn't know it yet." Landon reminds him, "There was too much going on."

A series of visions flash before Landon's eyes as he shares what has happened:

"Liam had almost killed Scott." Liam claws away in rapid fire as Scott raises his arms to fend off the blows after they have fallen over the railing in the library.

"Kira was gone."It's pouring rain as the Yukimura's load up into their car. Scott and Kira kiss goodbye. As the car pulls away as Scott watches distraught, not caring if the streetlight above burst into sparks.

"Micah was trying to find The Desert Wolf." On his bed at home, Micah has pictures from his investigation of the Desert Wolf. Some comprise a silhouette of his mother while others contained more pictures of dead bodies.

"You were missing." Dr. Valack reminds him, "And Sheriff Stilinski was dying..."

Present

Sheriff Stilinski was being wheeled into an operating room at Beacon Hills Memorial Hospital (BHMH). The attending surgeon happened to be Dr. Geyer, Liam's stepfather, "All right, we've got a liver lac and perforated intestine." He reported to his team as he placed an oxygen mask over the Sheriff's face.

The Sheriff wasn't worried about what was happening with him. Instead, he worried about the person who found him in the state that he was in. He removed the mask that covered his face, "Where's my-?"

"We're taking care of you, Sheriff," Dr. Geyer interrupted him, "But you have to keep your oxygen mask on." Dr. Geyer placed the mask back on the Sheriff as he directed an order to one of the orderlies, "Contact the blood bank and type and cross match for four units of O neg."

The Sheriff felt weak, but couldn't stop think about the person, "Where's my-?" He whispered as the sound of the EKG machine beeped, "Where's Stiles?"

"Stilinski, right?" A nurse on duty questioned to a teen wearing sunglasses at the admissions desk, "You said his insurance was with the county?" She continued typing on the computer unable to find anything on the Sheriff, "He's a Deputy?"

"No, he's the Sheriff," The teen snapped in frustration, "He's the county sheriff. Okay. He's covered." But Stiles has a lapse in judging remembering the financial issue they had gone through, "I mean he should be covered." The nurse gave a confused expression causing Stiles feel even more agitated.

Thankfully, Melissa McCall arrived on the scene, "I'll take care of it." She informed the nurse. The nurse easily surrendered the computer, "I texted Scott." Melissa shared, unaware that Scott was the last person Stiles wanted to see at the moment, "He's coming as soon as he can." Melissa didn't know the full extent of what had happened between the best friends, but she hadn't seen Stiles act so disconnected at the mention of Scott since the one-time he said Stiles' real name, "I can call Micah..." Melissa offered, "Derek."

"No, no, no." Stiles rejected not wanting either of the Hales being at the hospital. The lights around them to flicker, "Don't, don't call anyone."

Melissa gave a worrying expression, knowing the exact cause of the flickering.

The same nurse from before appeared, "Is there anyone else we need to notify?" She questioned, "A next of kin?"

"No, it's me." Stiles answered and turned away from the desk, "It's just me." Stiles repeated in a whisper, walking away.

Scott was caring for his wound in his bathroom, dropping a bloody rag into the sink. The wounds inflicted by Liam appeared to have healed, but the stab to his gut from Theo was still ragged and bleeding.

He tried to maintain his breathing as he stared into the mirror, just above the bathroom sink, and tried to spark his Alpha Werewolf eyes. The process was a strain as pain flowed through his body, but he managed to get to glow red for a moment before they flickered out and returned to his normal eye color. He pounded the sink in frustration.

Scott knew that he messed up…badly and he had no idea how he was going to fix it.

He retrieved some bandages from the medicine cabinet and got dressed. The moment, he stepped into the hallway, Scott could feel his vision shift and the hallway seemed to warp away from him. Resulting in him, passing out and collapsing to the floor.

At the hospital, Stiles sat in the waiting room. There were other people in the waiting room, but they were dealing with their own issues. But unlike Stiles, each person appeared to have someone with them as a source of comfort.

Stiles sat alone between two empty chairs, hands under chin, still wearing the sunglasses.

Things had turned for the worst…nothing would ever be the same again.

Stiles removed the sunglasses revealing eyes that continued to give off a purple hue. If anyone had been paying attention they would've noticed the odd color, but no one did.

Stiles cried.

Jordan Parrish stood in the shower in a trance unaware of the dirt and pieces of charred leaves that fell from his body. When he finished, he stepped out of the shower and wrapped a towel around his waist. He stood in front of his fogged up bathroom mirror, only to see Landon standing right behind him.

He spun around and Landon doesn't move. Instead, Landon just stared at him. Jordan was confused as to what was happening considering the last time he envisioned Landon, he was wounded and on the verge of dying.

Silently, Landon pointed at shower using his index finger, which Jordan had noticed that it was bloodied. Following Landon's pointed finger, he finally sees the dirt and leaves on the shower floor, "What's happening?" He questioned easily terrified.

Landon stood by his side, "You're a harbinger of death, Jordan." Landon spoke to him in trance-like tone, "Don't you know?"

"Know what?"

"Someone's dying."

The sound of a horn unexpectedly blared all around them and Jordan woke up behind the wheel of an SUV in the middle of traffic. Horns continued blaring as cars swerve out of his way.

At the station Deputy Clarke was sitting at her desk on the phone confused as to what her colleague was saying, "What are you talking about?"

"I can't say how I know," Jordan repeated, "But Landon Martin is missing."

"Parrish, you're missing." Clarke shared with him, "And some people here are actually confused by your behavior, me included."

Jordan was confused himself, but there was no way he could admit that without sounding like a total nutcase, "I know and I'm going to try to explain it." He promised, "But I need you to find whoever's available..."

"Parrish, no one's available." Clarke retorted back, "Do you have any idea what's going on?" No…No, he did not. "The high school sign somehow ended up in one of the hallways." Clarke updated him, "The library is completely wrecked. There might be a prehistoric animal running around the streets, and I am starting to seriously think about a transfer."

"Okay, listen." Jordan instructed, "I promise I'm gonna explain what I can later. But, right now, I've got to find Landon."

Clarke still didn't understand why her colleague was desperate to find someone, who hasn't been reported missing yet. With the Sheriff at the hospital and some deputies at the school, they were low on firepower as it was, "Parrish."

"I have to find him," Jordan repeated before hanging up.

Leaving the SUV on the side of the road, Jordan gets out of the SUV and sets out on foot into the woods armed with his flashlight, "Landon!" He called out into the darkness. The only answers he gets are the sounds of crickets as they chirped and the leaves crunching against the weight of his foot, "Landon!"

There's still no answer and the flashlight suddenly dies on him. He made an attempt to shake up on but its prove useless and he used option B.

He lights a flare and, as the flame passed near his face, his eyes flashed orange and something in the distance caught his eye. He dropped the flare and sets off.

Stiles was asleep in the waiting chair of the hospital, but the sound of the Sheriff's voice echoed all around, "Stiles, you need to get up." His voice in a gentle and distant tone, "You gotta get up now."

Stiles unexpected gasped awake with Melissa standing over, "He's okay." Melissa shared with a smile on her face, "Dr. Geyer is stitching him up right now."

Stiles sat up immediately at the news, "Okay, I wanna see him."

"Okay, okay." Melissa shared, knowing how restless Stiles was being, "The anesthesia needs to wear off. It's gonna be at least two hours."

"Okay, yeah," Stiles replied relaxing, sitting back down, "But everything's gonna be okay, though, I mean, he's okay?"

Melissa nodded her head, "Mmm. He's gonna be just fine."

"Oh, thank God." Stiles voiced in a shaky tone, before crying again. Melissa easily wrapped her arms around the teen and Stiles automatically returned the gesture.

Scott was still on the hallway floor where he collapsed when the sound of Jordan's voice brought him back to consciousness, "Scott, wake up." When Scott wake up Jordan noticed that he was bleeding, "Are you all right?" He questioned.

"Yeah." Scott told him, even though the wince contradicted what he had just said, "Yeah, I'm fine."

"You're bleeding."

"It's not that bad." Scott assured him, "Why are you here?"

"I need your help."

"With what?"

"With him." Jordan moved out the way and revealed Landon standing catatonic at the end of the hall, "I found him out in the woods practically hypothermic..." He then showed Scott a picture on his phone. It's a rock that had a symbol on it, due to Landon injuring his finger drawing on it, "It's a badge." Jordan explained, "A sheriff's badge."

"No." Scott told him, remembering the phone call from his mother, "It's a warning."

In a room with the sound of machines beeping, the Sheriff was breathing raggedly through his oxygen mask. His skin appeared to be dry and bruised.

Mason was chasing after his distraught friend, who was on a mission to get to the Sheriff's station.

Deputy Clarke exited the station and took one of the department SUVs. Before Liam could call out to her, he gets ambushed by Mason, who yanked him to the side, behind a tree. "What do you think you're doing?"

"Someone's got to tell her about Hayden," Liam explained as they watch Clarke drive off.

"No." Mason rejected, "Somebody doesn't have to be you." He then pointed out Liam's appearance, "All right, especially looking like this." He was talking about Liam's torn and bloodied clothing from the fight with Scott, "I mean, what if they think you killed her?"

Both paused realizing Mason had a point, "Maybe I did."

"You didn't. And while the last few hours haven't been your best..." Mason pointed out, "This isn't the way to fix it. She will find out, and it's not gonna hurt any less coming from you."

While Mason was trying to calm down his friend, he realized that Liam hadn't heard a word he had been saying, "What?"

Liam took another deep breath trying to figure why there was a familiar smell in the air, "It's Hayden." He answered, earning himself a wide-eyed facial feature from Mason, "It's her scent." He scanned the lot around and sees a reflection of Hayden in one of the car windows, "She's here."

However, when Liam turned his attention from the window, Hayden wasn't anywhere to be found. Mason gave his friend a sympathetic look. "You held her body in your arms." Mason reminded him gently, "You... You watched Parrish carry her out of the hospital." He placed a gentle should on Liam's shoulder and maneuvered them through the lot, "She's... She's gone...Let's go."

"Help!" Jordan exclaimed, carrying Landon in his arms as he and Scott rushed into the emergency room, "Get someone to help me." He demanded to one of the orderly, "I've got an 18-year-old male, potentially hypothermic."

While Jordan was explaining the situation to the orderlies Scott headed for the elevator.

The movement the elevator doors opened, Scott could hear the sound of Stiles' voice becoming more and more upset, "What do you mean you don't know?" Stiles demanded to know towards Dr. Geyer and Melissa, "Two hours ago, he was fine."

"Now it looks like somebody took a baseball bat to his neck." Dr. Geyer explained calmly, "There could've been some minor internal."

"Did you say, "Minor internal?"" Stiles questioned becoming more agitated, "Since when is anything internal minor?"

Scott made his way down the hall and peeked in on the Sheriff in the recovery room. Scott could see that the Sheriff was obviously not getting any better.

"Stiles..." Melissa tried to calm down the upset teen.

"I need to know what's going on with him, okay?" Stiles demanded between the two. The lights in the hallway flickered swiftly, "Dr. Geyer, somebody needs to tell me what's happening." Stiles claimed, voice now breaking, "Somebody needs to tell me what's happening to him!"

"We don't know," Melissa confessed.

Stiles moved away from the doctors, but in doing so spotted Scott down the hall. The broken facial expression turned into anger, "Where were you?" Stiles demanded, eyes glowing angrily.

Scott doesn't even defend himself as Stiles charged down the hall and grabbed a hold of him, throwing him into the wall, knocking a phone off the wall, "You trusted him." Stiles slammed him up against the wall, "You believed him."

With a spin on the heel, Stiles then threw Scott onto the floor and climbed on top of him, holding him down, "Right, huh?" Stiles reminded him, "So, where were you?"

"Hey, hey, hey..." Two security guards came rushing down the hall, pulling Stiles off of Scott, but that doesn't seem to matter because Stiles was still angry.

"Where the hell were you?" Stiles screamed, trying to break free from the guards hold.

"Stop it!" The guards grunted still fighting to hold Stiles back. For a moment, Stiles contemplated on sending the guards, flying down the hall. But stepped on the idea, realizing it wouldn't make the situation any better and being with the Sheriff was more important.

Taking this into considering Stiles does calm down enough for guards to let go, but watched the teen warily, while Stiles' only focus was on Scott.

"Your dad's not the only one who got hurt." Scott shared.

Stiles spotted the blood on Scott's shirt and responded in a dismissive tone, "Oh, you'll heal."

"I'm not talking about me."

Downstairs Natalie Martin sat by Landon's side stroking his forehead, "Everything's going to be all right, Landon." She assured him, even though she wasn't getting any responses, "We will get you the best medical care. The best doctors." She continued, "The best everything."

For the first time since Landon had admitted into the hospital, he turned away from his mother and towards the door just as soon as Stiles came in, "No. No, you don't." Natalie exclaimed as soon as Stiles stepped all the way in the room, "You're not coming in here." She shoved Stiles towards the door, "Get out!"

However, Stiles doesn't move to open the door, "I think I know who did this, okay." Stiles replied calmly, "I just need to look at the back of his neck."

"I know who did this." Natalie retorted easily, "You. All of you!"

"So did you!" Stiles shot back, surprising the woman, "You're in denial about everything that has been happening to you, to us and to Landon..." Stiles accused her, "…Just check the back of his neck." Without another word, Stiles disappeared right in front of Natalie without using the door.

Natalie released the breath she had been holding and shook herself as if she was trying not to act as if Stiles disappeared into thin air. She walked back over to Landon's side and does indeed follow Stiles' word and examined the back Landon's neck and lets out a horrified gasp, "Oh, God."

She could see the deep and ragged gashes from Theo's attempt to take Landon's memories, "I told you to stay in the car." Landon spoke to his mother for the first time, "I told you to stay in the car."

Landon continued repeating what his mother told him when he wandered into Eichen House as a child and witnessed his grandmother's trepanation wound.

"It could be a side effect of shock." Parrish offered as he, Scott, Stiles, and Melissa try to share all what they about Landon's condition.

"He's catatonic." Stiles corrected him, "It was Theo digging his way through his mind."

"Why would he do that?" Melissa wondered, "What is he looking for?"

"The same thing he's always looking for." Stiles answered, "An advantage."

"So what did he gain by trying to kill Stilinski?" Parrish questioned.

"It left me alone with Liam." Scott answered, "Theo wanted to make sure no one would be there to stop him from killing me."

Stiles thinks back to the brief fight with Theo. "You can't help Scott and save your dad's life." He reveals while Stiles has him on the ground, ready to slam his head into it again. At the statement, Stiles completely stills. He is right. Even if with the spark, there is no way get to both of them at the same time, "You've still got time, Stiles." Theo replies with a bloody smile, seeing the conflict, "You've still got time."

"Okay, so he gutted my dad as a distraction."

"We need to find this kid," Parrish told them urgently.

"Isn't that a little dangerous?" Melissa questioned the deputy, "Considering, he almost killed my kid?"

"Yeah, but he said he didn't want my dad to die," Stiles said.

Melissa stared at Stiles with disbelief, "And you believe him?"

"He told me where to find him." Stiles answered in a strained tone, knowing how bad it sounded to even trust the one person, who had caused all the trouble, "So, maybe he also knows how to save him."

"What do you want to do?" Scott asked, hoping Stiles wouldn't ignore him, "Talk to him?"

"If it saves my dad, then yeah."

"I'll come with you." At the statement, Stiles gave a look that said otherwise, "He doesn't know that I'm alive." Scott pointed out, "Maybe that gives us an advantage."

Stiles disagreed, "He'll know you're there." Stiles argued, "I just need to talk to him. Not fight him."

"Stiles, you can't go alone." Scott tried, even though it was useless since it appeared Stiles wasn't the listening mood with Scott. Seeing that this was the case, Scott focused on Parrish and his mother, "Does anyone even know how to find him?"

But neither of the adults appeared to know and a moment of tense silence fell over them until Stiles broke it with an annoyed sigh, "We don't have to find him. He'll come to me."

This proved true as the sun came up and Theo found Stiles at Scott's house, sitting on the staircase inside, waiting for him.

Before he crosses, Theo noticed a line of Mountain Ash across the doorjamb, but with a knowing smirk, Theo crossed it with ease due to him being a chimera and not an actual supernatural.

Stiles' eyes automatically gave off their glow.

At the hospital, Natalie Martin was holding onto an admission form that will send Landon to Eichen House. There to meet her was Dr. Fenris, "He'll be well taken care of, Ms. Martin." The doctor assured her, "It's a very different place now." However, Natalie doesn't hand over the form even after the assurance, "He'll be safe there." He pressed, "He'll be safe."

In the distance, the sound of the elevator dings as Natalie finished signing the forms, "Just two signatures, Ms. Martin." He instructed her, "Ms. Martin I promise I'll look after him personally." He guaranteed after Natalie handed him the signed form.

Just as he walked away Jordan appeared by her side, "Ms. Martin, who was that?" He questioned with concern, "What were you signing?"

"He'll be safe there," Natalie repeated watching as the doctor walked away.

"What do you mean?" He questioned her confused, "What did you do?"

Looking away from the departing doctor, Natalie focused her attention on him, "I did what I had to."

"I guess we're all telling the truth now," Theo spoke first, eyeing Stiles who still appeared to have been crying.

Scott remained hidden upstairs, listening to Stiles and Theo's conversation. Theo's eyes drifted to the top of the stairs as if he sensed the Alpha's presence.

Stiles threw Scott's torn and bloodied shirt at Theo's feet, "Did you kill my best friend?"

Theo snorted at the statement, "Let's be honest, Stiles." Theo said, stepping closer, "Was he still your best friend?"

Stiles stood up from the stairs, evening the eye level field, "Are you going to let my father die?"

"If I wanted him to die I wouldn't have told you where you can find him."

Stiles' response to Theo was a grab by his shirt and a slam against the wall, "If you didn't want him to die," Stiles seethed, "Why are they saying his body is shutting down?" Stiles demanded, "That some toxin's poisoning him and they don't know how to stop it."

"I'm not the bad guy, Stiles." Theo answered, "I'm just a realist." In an instant, Theo overpowered Stiles and switched their positions. This time, it was Stiles up against the wall with Theo's arms, blocking Stiles in from both sides, "I'm a survivor." The cocky expression on his face softens, "If you knew the things that I know..."

"Yeah, but what do you know?"

"I know what's coming." Theo answered, "I know what the Dread Doctors created." He boasted, "And I know what Parrish is."
