Notes:
Hi hi, it's been a very very very very long time since I have updated.
I've been wanting to update for a while but I had the conundrum that I didn't know how to defeat the Wild Hunt. I didn't want to just redo the whole Teen Wolf defeating the Wild Hunt thing because I was like what's the point of adding it in if I was just going to do what's already been done. At first, I was like man why did I bring them here, I'm so stupid.
But then I had the idea to just brainstorm today and just try to get through it. So I read a little bit on the Teen Wolf Wiki on exactly what happened during the Wild Hunt and that Teen Wolf season and stuff because honestly I kind of checked out during that season. Anyway, I read a little bit about it and they were talking about a bunch of things that I thought were a cool way I could Implement into having this ragtag group of four people to defeat it. And since it's a style Centric story I had to make styles do something significant.
In the end, I did figure out a way how to defeat the Wild Hunt. I also found out a way how to make Stiles look really badass and I figured out a way for him to get stronger. It's going to be switching perspectives between Stiles, Lydia, Rei, Peter, Klaus, and Scott's group.
Deaton probably won't be talked about or mentioned much because he's going to be doing some nefarious thing outside of Beacon Hills because nobody knows where Stiles is right now and even after he gets captured as we already know from the title of this chapter, people are going to forget about him anyway. And in Deaton's forgetfulness, he's going to be really confused outside of Beacon Hills. So in the meantime, he'll be a little bit unimportant at the moment. Once this Arc is over will bring him back and all this important stuff about what happened in the last chapter will come back and play but for now, we'll just skip over it. I just had a really good idea while writing this so I'm glad I wrote this note before I started writing the chapters.
This chapter is short but I'm going to be uploading like 4 chapters in a row so just relax~

Stiles POV:
"So what you're telling me is I'm going to have to be sacrificed. I'm gonna have to get myself captured because I'm the only one who can do it. Goddamnit!" I whispered the last part.
"Why don't you both get captured? "Lydia said, pointing to myself and Damon.
"Hear me out, "Lydia said after Damon's face read hell no.
"It's risky if we only let one person get captured. However, if we split our group in half. Rei and I are on the outside while Stiles and Damon are on the inside; it would be less risky. We could also contact people on the outside, as Rei suggested. We could message Peter or Klaus and tell them to reach out to us every day or two so that we won't forget you guys and so that we can continue to work on figuring out a way to stop this. Also, Stiles, if you get taken, it means that nobody would make a fuss in Beacon Hills anymore because everyone who's chasing you is going to forget about you."
"I can't believe you found a bright side in this situation," Stiles whined.
However, even if I didn't like my situation, I couldn't disagree with what Lydia was saying. Curse smart people; why does everything she says make so much sense that I can't argue with her.
I look to Damon,
"Well, I already have no choice about this. What about you?" I ask Damon.
Damon glared at Lydia for even suggesting it.
"Fine! But if you leave us in there, I will find a way out and kill you all." Damon says not liking how he was put into this situation, he started to believe that saving Bonnie wasn't worth it anymore.
"Okay, let's save the death threats for later; the main issue now is how do we get captured?" I asked.
"Well, just wait for the storm and go somewhere alone and look defenseless."
Rei said,
"It won't be too hard for you; you have a weak-looking face," Rei said, looking at me.
Damon laughed because he's an asshole.
"Shut up. Diss aside, will that really work?" I ask.
"I mean, it's worth a try unless you got a better idea," Rei said, not looking sorry in the slightest.
"Come on, Stiles, let's do this; I mean, there's no danger because we want you to get captured anyway, right," Lydia said.
"Okay, we'll go into the woods; it's the easiest place to get taken. Plus, there should be no one around. Well, keep you guys on a phone call so you can hear us get taken; make sure you remember us; otherwise, this will be pointless." I say to Lydia and Rei.
"Let's go, Damon; I know the forest well; there are tons of sketchy places where we can get captured," I say to Damon as I lead him out of the house.
Even if we weren't going to be captured at the moment, we might as well find a place where there were no people and as sketchy as possible so that we could get captured, even though I hate this idea, and it would be the least damaging to the rest of the population.
Anyway, the weather was clear and sunny, there wasn't a storm cloud in sight, and it seemed like we would be safe, at least for now.
30 minutes later...
I jinxed us.
I mean, this whole situation was already jinxed enough as it is, but the moment we entered the forest and walked around for like 10 minutes, a storm started to roll in.
First, the sky darkened, then bouts of thunder were heard in all directions, then it started to rain.
"Why am I always so unlucky?" I asked nobody except for the roaring thunder.
Damon looked like a wet cat, he was wearing all leather, and it was thoroughly soaked through, and his hair was stuck to his face. He seems absolutely annoyed, like a wet cat. Damon heard me speak but ignored me and continued to walk deeper into the forest; he just wanted to get captured already.
"Well, hey, at least we'll be out of the rain soon because, according to Rei, the storm is a pretty good indicator that they're coming. And we look pretty weak." I say because as much as Damon looked like a wet cat, I looked even worse.
I may have gained some muscle, and my hair may have grown out, but soaking wet, I kind of resembled my 16-year-old human self. Damon just scoffed, not wanting to be called weak but agreed that we looked pretty pathetic.
And we didn't have to wait long, whether it was because the conditions were met so well or because the storm was raging so hard, the Wild Hunt had appeared just like we had predicted.
At first, we heard the sounds of hooves belonging to horses running through the forest. As supernatural creatures, we heard it first and early, so we weren't surprised when 3 or 4 Ghost Riders appeared before us. We had no idea what they looked like nor any expectations. They look like cowboys sitting atop their horses with their old worn-out attire. Except their faces were something, I hadn't seen before. I wasn't overwhelmingly scared or frightened, but it was definitely new and a bit scary.
At first, I didn't know what to do. How are they going to capture us? Or are we supposed to just stand here and let them grab us? Or were we supposed to pretend to fight so they would take us? I looked toward Damon, giving him a look the asked, what are we supposed to do now ?
Damon, kind of reminding me of Peter for a second, didn't want to go down without a fight even though he was supposed to be bait, ran forward quickly, but not vampire quickly, and aimed for one of their heads.
But with a quickness, faster than a vampire, one of the Ghost Riders whipped their whip and grabbed Damon by the ankle, pulling him to the floor. Even Damon coughed up blood from the impact of that. After having grabbed his foot with the whip, that Ghost Rider started to ride off in a different direction pulling Damon with him while dragging him across the floor, letting him get hit by all the branches and trees that were in his way.
I gulped; well, know I know this will be a painful experience.
"Ahh, Lydia?" I say as they grow closer.
"Stiles? What was that sound?" Lydia asks worriedly.
"Damon," I say, watching the three remaining Ghost Riders surround me.
"What do you mean, Damon?" Lydia asks, concerned.
"Ah, well, the...storm has come, and it took Damon first."
"First? Stiles?" Lydia asks again, sounding worried even though this was the plan.
"Yeah, Lyd's, I gotta go now, uh see you on the other side, I hope," I say, whispering that last part, dropping my phone in dodging the first whip.
But the other two caught my wrists, and I, too, was pulled across the forest floor before being tossed into a swirling portal.
...
"Stiles? Hello? Are you okay?" Lydia's voice filters through the phone.
The single Ghost Rider left looks at the noise and gets off his horse walking up to the phone.
"Stiles? Is that you? Did you get caught?" Lydia's voice filters through again, thinking that it's Stiles that she hears.
The Ghost Rider's foot rises and slams down on the phone, destroying it into pieces.
And the line goes dead.
Lydia POV:
"Beep-Beep-Beep-Beep-Beep..." The line went dead.
"Well, I guess your plan worked out well," Rei said, speaking for the first time in a while.
"Too well," I said, worried for them.
Well, for Stiles, really, I couldn't really care less about Damon.
"Well, on to the next stage," I say, grabbing a note pad and I write the date and the time and a little blurb of what just happened.
Then I took a picture of it and sent it to Peter and then I sat down.
"So what now? Do we continue reading, or do we try to examine the town?" I ask Rei.
"Hmm, how about we split the work between us? We'll get both done that way." Rei suggests.
"Sure, that's smart, well, it's your first time in Beacon Hills, so do you want to explore or read?" I offer him the choice.
"I'll stay inside today; maybe next time I'll explore," Rei said, smiling while picking up the book off the table as he walked away into my mom's house.
"Well, okay," I say, watching him leave.
I turn and walk outside; time to investigate and hopefully not forget about Stiles.

Notes:
Anyways since it's been about a year-and-a-half almost 2 years maybe since I last updated a lot of stuff has been going on in my life. I think y'all know I went to college. I actually started to go in person again and then my life fell apart. Again.
So currently I'm on a medical leave of absence from school because my mental health is like taking a nosedive down. It's really fucking me up honestly. Like I've taken two months off from school at this point and anytime I think about school my stress goes from about a 3 to an 11. In like seconds and it like goes from like agitated to crying to screaming like it's really bad. I'm seeing a psychiatrist and stuff and I'm taking medicine to help me balance, but school has been stressing me out so badly.
And like I'm second-guessing my career choices which sucks. Like I want to be a teacher, I really do but it's not exactly what I thought it was. I think what I really wanted to be was a college professor so that I can teach a single subject that I really like. I don't think I want to be a high school teacher because all of high school you have to teach test prep. And I don't really want to teach test prep. And I don't want to have to teach specific subjects and specific topics. I want like free-range and I don't think I can be like that as a teacher which sucks.
I've been second-guessing my career choice and honestly, I couldn't tell you what I would do. I kind of want to do something in the creative field. But besides writing stories I don't really do anything else. I'm also really struggling with my weight right now and I'm going to get surgery for it too so that's a lot of other stress. I'm supposed to be dieting right now but I'm stress-eating again and my school is charging me $1,000 for a class I'm not even taking which fucking sucks. Recently everything has just been going down the drain. I'm trying not to be depressed here but it's like my life is depressing and hard.
People keep telling me that everyone goes through these things but like why am I struggling so much? If everyone's going through these things and everyone is successful or at least manageable in their life why can't I be? It's so difficult, but I'm not going to think about school for at least two more months. So there's that.
On to some good news, my niece that I think I mentioned before is now almost 2 years old. And she has a little brother coming on the way. He's going to be named after his dad. Also, the stomach surgery while it is daunting it is good news too. Hopefully, I'll be healthier and lose weight.
I also have planned to go on a personal adventure around my city. I live in New York so like there are so many things to do that I haven't done even though I'm a local here. Like there's so many cool and exciting exhibits and buildings and museums and natural landscapes that I just haven't gone to or I haven't been to in many many years. So I was thinking since I have all this time off I can go around and explore the city just by myself and enjoy myself outside of my house. And maybe once I lose a little bit more weight I could buy one of those backpacks that you put your dogs in and carry my dog around with me as well.
I also wanted to celebrate pride month and go see the parade and stuff but I want to go with friends and I don't know anyone who wants to go so I'm just going to go next year maybe once I'm healthier and happier life. And definitely next year I'll have more time to prep an outfit. Because finding clothes at the last minute is very difficult.
This was a really really really long note but I just wanted to catch you all up on my life and stuff. I really do like talking to people like this even if no one really reads these comments.
