Illuminated Part 2:

Bex, Stiles and Scott walked up to Derek's loft with Kira following behind them. Bex stopped to change into different clothes before she and Stiles met them there. It was clear that it had an effect as Stiles stared at her in her skirt. "Eyes up here, Stiles." She smiled looking away as she opened the door. The party was already going. As much as she hated to admit it, the twins and Danny did an excellent job with it.

Everyone was dancing, lit up with glowing luminescent paint, jumping all around. They even had a DJ there. Bex led them in, glancing over at Stiles' keys in his hand. "Why is your key glowing?"

"I'm not sure, I've been trying to figure that out all day." He admitted as they walked into the room more. "It just showed up on my key ring this morning. I asked my dad if he put it there, but he said he didn't know anything about it," Stiles told them,

"It's just a key though, right?" Scott questioned.

"Yeah, but it's not mine and I don't know how it got there or what. it's for." He said as he moved through the path of people dancing."

"You want to leave so you can figure it out?"

Suddenly, a girl came up and kissed Stiles right on the cheek, leaving a glowing stain of lipstick on his cheek. "Happy Halloween," She smiled as she walked away. Scott and Bex both looked on at their friend, shocked.

"It can wait." He tapped his shoulder, looking after the girl.

There was a surge of jealousy running through Bex. She didn't quite know where it was coming from. Maybe it was from the fact that Stiles was staring after that girl, but she pushed it away. "No way, you owe me the first dance." Bex dragged Stiles off who was pleasantly surprised and followed her off, as Scott's gave him a thumbs up. She brought him towards the paint supplies and grabbed a paintbrush.

"Tell me you aren't going to randomly splatter my face. I need it, for my good lucks." Stiles rambled on as she grabbed the paint brush dipping it into red paint.

"Calm down, Stiles. I'm not going to defame your face." She teased him as she started to trace a symbol on his neck. He shivered feeling the brush tips against his skin. Bex concentrated on her design, making sure that it was perfect, not noticing that Stiles' eyes were on her the whole time, as she concentrated as she made every stroke perfect.. "I'm done." She said a few minutes later.

He chuckled going. "I don't get to do you?" He asked as he looked in the closet mirror.

"I'm afraid of what you might paint on me. Do you like it?"

He chuckled as she grabbed a cup, drinking the sweet drink, drinking half of it, offering some to him, but he denied it. "That's really awesome, Bex. Thanks." He smiled back at her before glancing back at the party.

"Come on, let's dance." She pulled his hand and lead him into the mess of people dancing and partying all around. Stiles held onto her hand as she led them towards the back of the room as the song changed. They moved through to the other side as he spun her around back into her arms making her smile.

She laughed as he started dancing to the beat of the music, twirling her around. He put his hands in the air waving them round and round. Bex giggled watching him. It felt good to finally be able to push away other problems that she'd rather not think about.

The song slowed down a little and so did their pace. Stiles slowed to catch his breath as Bex wrapped her arms around his neck as they started to dance closely. He wrapped his arms around her waist. Stiles stared into her brown eyes. "Your pulse is racing," Bex noticed with a smile.

He cleared his throat. "We have been dancing for a while," He claimed as he glanced down at her upturned lips. "And probably the fact that I'm lucky enough to be dancing with the hottest girl here. I-I mean that, Bex." He smiled at her nervously.

Bex looked up surprised, smiling from ear to ear. Her eyes met his own as she leaned in slightly, feeling his warm breath against her skin. With a slight moment of hesitation, Bex pressed her lips against his. He was surprised but kissed her back with fervor, desperately wanting to be closer. They found themselves against a wall, their bodies pressed together tightly. His body molded hers, perfectly. Each kiss deepened more than the last. There was a deep rooted feeling of passion that came out between them. His fingers grasped for the ends of the back of her shirt as he pulled her closer against him.

Stiles pulled back slightly to catch his breath as Bex did the same, smiling at each other. The music was faint to them both as the beat continued in the background of the party, but they didn't seem to notice. "That was so much better than in my dream." Stiles blurted out.

Bex laughed. "You've got phosphorus on your keys." She fingers his keychain hanging outside of his pocket. Stiles glanced down at her lips kissing her deeper than before, getting more addicted by each kiss, each touch, but he pulled away, remembering something.

"What's phosphorus?"

Bex grabbed his keys, showing it to him. "It what makes it glow. Like a glow in the dark stick or even this paint on you. The UV light makes it glow." Stiles considered this for a moment before pulling her back, kissing her as he smiled against her lips.

"How would I get it on my keys though?" He thought aloud. Bex sighed as she pulled back slightly taking them in her hands, glancing at the glowing light coming from the metal. It was odd, almost like it was painted on.

"I mean it could've accidentally got on it from the paint or even chemicals could make it glow like this." Bex said but noticed that his mind was on something else. It was a similar look that he got when he was trying to figure something out. "Stiles, hey, what's going on?"

Stiles hurried to grab the keys putting them back in his pocket. "Look, um, I really really have to go. God, I hate this so much." He glanced back at Bex. He couldn't believe that he was running off when he had her there, finally, but he knew this was important. He needed to check something. "I-I have to go, I'm sorry. Stay here, get a ride back with Scott or Danny, just promise me you won't leave alone."

Bex looked confused but nodded. "Yeah, I'll get Danny or Lydia to drive me, What's going on?"

"I have to check this. Look, I am so so sorry, Bex. If I could stay I would and I would just kiss you so much. I-I would, I would just kiss you until you finally yelled at me to stop kissing you because I wanted to kiss you so badly." Stiles rambled on, desperately. He didn't want to screw this up already.

Bex kissed him, shutting him up. "Than go do this and then come back to kiss me." She smiled teasing him.

Stiles smiled, relieved. "I'll call you, I promise. Just be careful." He asked her.

"You too, Stiles. Just be careful." She said worried as he ran off. Bex made her way back through the crowd, trying to find Lydia, but had no luck. She knew Lydia and even though she claimed she wanted nothing to do with Aiden, it wouldn't surprise her to know that she was with the former alpha.

Bex felt her phone vibrate within her pocket and she went into a quieter, empty room to answer the unknown call. "Hello? Hello?" She repeated after not clearly hearing what the speaker was saying.

"Rebecca. Rebecca Ravenwood?" Bex tensed. No one ever called her by that name. Very few people had the privilege of even knowing her full first name. "Listen to me and this is important-"

"Wait, who is this? H-how did you get this number." She asked the voice and that aggravated her. She couldn't pinpoint who it was.

"All you need to know right now is that I'm a friend and I'm trying to help you, Rebecca. Someone is coming for you, do not attack, understand? If you do, they will mark you. All you need to know is do not attack anyone."

"I-I don't understand. Who is this?" She yelled, frustrated, but the line went dead as the door opened.

She saw Danny had come over to find her, looking frightened. Bex felt uneasy, the phone call went out of her mind. "Danny, are you alright?" She asked him concerned, he looked okay, but she wasn't going to risk anything.

He shook his head. "I'm fine, we just can't find Ethan. Aiden and I have been looking for him and Lydia seems to have just disappeared too, just out of the blue." Bex hesitated. This just screamed bad for everyone and this was the last thing that they needed.

Danny walked outside onto the terrace and found her. Bex hurried out after him to see Lydia, shivering on the floor. "Aiden!" She called as she hurried to kneel down next to her side. Aiden came out after them, hurrying to pick Lydia up against him, trying to do anything to warm her up.

"Lydia! What happened? What happened to her?" He demanded.

"I don't know, I just found her like this. She's freezing," Danny noticed. "She's practically hypothermic."

"Guys, we need to get her inside." Bex told him. Aiden gently picked Lydia up, as Danny and Bex led the way. They brought her next to a heating vent. "Danny, try and go find some blankets, anything that'll keep her warm." She instructed him and he hurried to leave. Bex touched Lydia's arm and it was as though she was out in a snowstorm. "Hey, Lydia, what happened? Who did this?"

She was shaking as Aiden wrapped his arms around her, pulling her close hoping that his body heat would help. "T-they came out of the d-dark." Lydia managed to get out. Bex looked confused, but kept her attention on keeping her warm.

Danny hurried back with a blanket and she draped it over her friend. Lydia was still shivering but not nearly as cold as before. "Get Out!" They heard a loud voice vibrate throughout the building. Derek was back.

Swarms of people started to hurry to the exit, obviously not wanting to spend the night in a jail cell if he called the cops. They helped Lydia get up, but Bex stopped as she saw a man, dressed in all black with a type of mask on. There was a sense of evil she got off of him and she knew that she needed to get her friends out. Aiden glanced at her, he saw it too.

"Hey, get her out of here. I'll call you soon." Bex told him as Danny lifted Lydia up into his arms and left with her.

At that moment, they saw Allison, shirtless with Isaac and Ethan coming out of the bathroom while Scott and Kira came down from the roof. The room was nearly empty save for hooded figure, who began to turn towards Aiden and Bex. "Guys, they're all looking at us."

"Shit," Bex took a step back, glancing all around the room. There were at least five of them. Derek exchanged a look with Scott before they both attacked. He tried to swipe, but missed them and was sent flying to the ground with a kick. Scott did the same but they were quick, flying through the airs, spinning around.

Derek managed to snap out of their neck's but it just seemed to fit it back on. Derek looked shocked as it tossed him to the ground. Scott tried desperately to fight them, but they easily gained the upperhand and threw him to the ground as well. They turned over to Aiden and Bex, each of them had their arms gripped by one of the figures.

Isaac took a step forward with his claws out, ready to attack but only one figure turned to him. He produced a steel blade out of his chest, spinning it around, expertly, as though challenging him to fight, they did nothing though.

"Somebody do something." Allison said as she struggled to hold the other twin up. The hooded figures stepped closer to the other two werewolves. They tried to take Bex, but for as soon as their hand touched her arms, they stopped. Each exchanged a look with one another before tossing her out of the way into Scott. Bex looked up, disoriented as they turned Aiden ice cold with a touch and marked him, right behind the ears. He fell to the ground.

Scott rose to his feet, fangs out and his eyes deep red. He growled and turned to see Kira. She looked shocked and frightened, but she did not run. Bex rose with him, getting ready for what inevitably would be another fight, but before anyone else could move, the sun rose. They hooded figures looked over to where the light shined through and disappeared with it, like dust in the wind. "What the hell were those things?" Scott demanded as Derek took a step forwards as confused as they were.

"Your dad's 24 hours are up." Isaac told Allison who looked nervous. They glanced over at them. His statement only added to the many questions that Bex already had and were continuing to pile up. Who the hell were they?
