Chapter 4
Blood To Blood!
1 week later.
"That was a movie? Why watch when I can do all that myself." The Cryix asked as Stiles walked out of the movie theater.
"It's called entertainment, for when you don't feel like killing people." Stiles said annoyed.
"Well I was entertained, I just prefer doing it myself."
"Now I know how Derek feels when he and I go see a movie." Stiles grumbled to himself.
"That was meant to be an insult wasn't it!" The Cryix said a little put out.
"Yeah it was, but it's also meant to be taken as a joke." Stiles said as he walked over to his jeep.
"Humans are so confusing. Why joke when you mean to be a dick, where's the fun in that?" The Cryix asked confused.
"Makes it less of an insult, not really wanting to hurt the person I guess." Stiles said rolling his eyes.
"It's redundant. Just say what you mean and if they take offense it's their problem not yours. Why beat around the bush when you can just tell them like it is." The Demon said getting annoyed at the human race.
"Some people do, and some people don't it depends on the person's personality." Stiles said turning his jeep on as the sun began to set.
"When I get my own life, I'm going to tell people how it is, no beat around the bush nonsense, why live a lie." The Cryix said.
"Good for you." Stiles said rolling his eyes as he pulled out of the parking lot.
1 weeks later.
Caleb paced around in the kitchen as the pot simmered today was the day they cast the locator spell, all he was waiting for was for the liquid to turn blue, it was taking forever.
Derek strolled into the kitchen with no shirt on his muscular body catching Caleb off guard as the dark haired wolf went to the fridge and grabbed a bottle of water and drank half the bottle.
"H-hey?" Caleb asked, a little jealous of his cousin's lover.
Derek nodded in Caleb's direction noticing him blushing as he re-twisted the cap on the bottle.
"Is it done yet?" Derek asked trying to distract the blond witch.
"What?" Caleb asked completely forgetting about the potion.
Derek looked to the big metal pot of the stove and back at Caleb who followed his gaze.
"Oh right the spell, it should be done soon just have to wait for it to turn blue." Caleb said walking over to the pot and stirring it with a ladle, the liquid was turquoise but turning blue. "Another hour and it should be ready." Caleb said looking back at the muscular wolf who just nodded before walking out of the kitchen.
"I need to stop becoming attracted to guys who are already involved." Caleb said to himself.
Stiles drove up to the sign that said 'You are now entering Beacon Hills.' He pulled his new jeep over on the shoulder, having found his answers he wondered what his friends plan was.
"Why have we stopped Stiles?" The Cryix asked confused.
"I'm scared." Stiles said looking at the sign welcoming him home.
"Of what? I'm no longer a threat." The demon asked even more confused.
"I'm very powerful, my children are as well, things are always going to be coming for us. We will never be safe, from the creatures that want more power. I don't want this for my family." Stiles said looking into the mirror at the Demon looking back, listening to what he was saying. "What's next, what if I'm not strong enough?" Stiles asked.
"It's true, you are very powerful, there will always be something after your power, you can't help that. But I have learned that you are a very capable witch, protecting your own and having your friends beside you make a huge difference. It would have been ten times easier getting your heart, if your friends weren't always beside you." The demon said sincerely. "Even if you give up, the bonds you have with your friends is frighteningly strong. You won't have a choice but to keep going until the goal has been reached." The Cryix had remorse in his eyes. "I now see what my down fall was, I should have focused more on your friends, then on you. Sadly I don't have the power over time travel or else I would do it over." The Cryix said with a smirk at the corner of his mouth replacing the remorse in his dark eyes.
"Once a demon always a demon." Stiles said Restarting his jeep.
"For now anyways." The demon said looking away from the mirror.
"What I'm trying to say is as long as you have them, you will never be in any true danger of failing. Trust your instincts, that's the most powerful influence a witch will ever wield. That and love." The Demon said as Stiles drove passed the sign into Beacon Hills.
"I get what you're saying, thanks Demon." Stiles said with a smile.
"Don't mention it, ever. I can't have people thinking I've gone soft." The Cryix said with large grin.
Caleb ran into the kitchen where the rest of the pack and coven sat and stood around the dinning room table putting the dark blue liquid into little glass potion bottles.
"He's in town, the eastern Sigil lit up on the map." Caleb said pointing to the living room.
Derek instantly stopped what he was doing and quickly followed Caleb into the living room, needing to see it for himself.
Sure enough 1 of the 4 directional Sigil's was lit in a bright green light, it dimmed as stiles left the Sigil's range.
Derek smiled as his prayers had been answered, finally. "It's time." He said looking back at Caleb who agreed with a nod.
"Time to cast the spell." Caleb said walking back into the kitchen with Derek behind him.
"Okay so I tweaked the spell a little, now instead of just seeing where he is we will appear where he will be moment's before he show's. The plan is to capture him and bring him back here, this green potion is a sleeping agent, one smell and he'll fall asleep." Caleb said putting it into his pocket.
"How do you know he won't just come with us willingly?" Derek asked.
"I don't, but I don't want to take any chances." Caleb said.
"You don't trust him?" Derek asked.
"I do, I don't trust the Demon. Who will take any form of weakness to attack." Caleb said taking 2 of the blue filled bottles, walking over to the other side of the island and grabbed the wooden bowl from the counter filled with fruit. Caleb dumped the fruit into the empty sink and placed it onto the island counter.
"Drink the potion." Caleb said drinking one of the two bottles.
Caleb took the other blue bottle and drained it into the bowl. "Powers of our coven rise, course seen in our minds eye, show us who we call dear, show us if they are near."
He then took one of the kitchen knifes from the counter and gripped the sharp blade tight in his hand before pulling it out cutting into his hand, his blood dripping down his arm as he moved his hand over the wooden bowl his blood dripped into the blue liquid settled at the bottom of the bowl.
"Blood to blood I need to see, Blood to blood send me to thee." Caleb said and in the matter of seconds each person who had drank the potion vanished in a flash of blue light.
Lydia now stood in an empty kitchen.
"Bring him back, safely." She said before leaving the kitchen to look after Eli and Cari.
"I feel as though we should have had a little more fun together." The Cryix said with a smirk.
"Like what?" Stiles asked driving up to a parking lot full of cars.
"I don't know, scare some people with your magic, or something like that." The demon said.
"Why so you can feed off their fear? Not happening I can't have you getting stronger, I don't know if I could trust you if you got control again." Stiles said pulling into an empty parking spot.
"I'm just saying it might be the last time I can wield magic, it would be a goodbye present. I don't just feed off of fear that's just the second strongest way, I feed off of destruction as well. But witches hearts are the strongest form of food for a demon like me." The Cryix said.
"We will go into the forest and fire off some magic okay just no fear or hearts." Stiles said agreeing to his request. "What does it taste like?"
"What?" The demon asked.
"Your food sources?" Stiles asked.
"Hmm, I've never really thought about it." The Cryix said furrowing his brow in wonder.
Stiles left his jeep and locked it up instead of going into the school's sports field he fled into the forest to give the demon his last request.
"The best way I can describe the taste is like syrup, sweet and thick with a slight bitterness to it but barely noticeable. The rush of energy is intense." The Cryix said inside Stiles head.
"What's the rush like?"
"Speed, spinning but standing still. Suddenly your filled with this rush of energy and strength you feel like you can do anything, it lasts for a few days and then I need to feed again." The Cryix explained.
Derek, Erica, Allison, Jackson, Isaac, Scott, Caleb, Madison, Brien, and Lilith appeared in a forest a few miles away from the high school.
"Why would he come here?" Derek asked.
"I don't know." Scott said looking around for any sign as to why they were near the school.
"Okay, here we go." Stiles said holing his hand out at his side, his palm facing the ground as red lighting began to spark in his hand forming a red orb of pulsing red energy. He lifted his hand to a tree, his eyes lit up white and silver as the ball left his hand hurtling towards a dead stump just a few feet from him. The Cryix laughed as the red orb destroyed the stump and created a crater in the ground.
"That was a good one. Again!" The Cryix demanded.
Stiles raised his hand up to the sky as anther red orb swelled in his hand red sparks danced along his hand as the orb grew bigger, he felt invincible holding so much power in the palm of his hand.
He thrust his hand towards a large bolder, the red orb flew through the air and into the rock the sound was so loud, like thunder. The rock crumbled into small rocks.
"That was awesome. People are going to think a storm is coming." The Demon said absorbing the energy particles from the destruction around them.
"Stiles try another one at that cliff, use both hands." The Cryix said loving the feeling of being nourished buy Stiles' power.
"You're really enjoying this aren't you." Stiles said as he closed his hands flat together.
"Don't deny a demon his pleasures. Especially when it's the last thing before death." The Cryix said inside Stiles' head.
"I'm not denying you of it, your just freaking me out a bit." Stiles said.
"Just once more and we can get going." The Demon said as Stiles shook his head.
"Once more, then." Stiles said, slowly forcing his hands apart, and as he did red sparks crawls along his palm and finger, creating a small ball of energy as he drew his hands further from the other. The red orb of energy grew larger and larger, the ball sparked at the ground like lightning hitting a conductor, small holes were only left and smoke from burnt sticks. As the red glowing orb grew even larger then before, the Cryix smiled as he witnessed the power before him.
The red ball of energy was the size of a large beach ball, his eyes flashed and the orb zoomed out of his hands towards the side of the cliff just meters away.
"Yes!" The demon said closing his eyes as the energy was absorbed into him.
Stiles watched as the ball collided with the rock wall, it exploded with a loud thundering crack. Rocks and dust burst from the blast towards them but unable to reach them as Stiles created a shield around himself. The sound echoed through the forest and the dust began to settle, there was a large hole in the rocky wall the red energy orb dissipating more into the wall before disappearing having done it's job.
"Whoa. That was crazy." Stiles said.
"And I'm spent." The Cryix said with a smile.
"Awesome." Stiles said taking his shield down, and walking away from the damage.
THOOBM!
"What the hell was that?" Scott said looking to the sky.
"Thunder?"Derek asked.
"No clouds." Isaac said looking at the sky as well.
"Then what was that?" Scott asked.
"That was an energy blast, the strongest I've heard." Caleb said, "what is he doing?"
"It came from that way." Jackson said pointing further away from the high school.
The werewolves ran as fast as they could as the witches used their abilities to keep up, they reached a small clearing to the left of them was a cliff a few meters away, and to the right was a large bush.
Derek sniffed the air, "I smell him."
Brien walked a little further, "There he's a few feet away he's just standing there, praying?" Brien said watching Stiles as the rest of the pack went to look.
"Why is he praying in a forest?" Erica asked.
"He isn't, he's creating another energy blast." Caleb said. "We're in danger! We need to find a place that's safe." Caleb said looking around concerned for everyone's safety.
"What's an energy blast?" Scott asked.
"Their a form of magic, usually used to disorientate, I've only seen it this powerful once, preformed by a very powerful elder, the sound we heard earlier was the sound of it hitting solid rock. If it was to hit a person their would be nothing left, but dust." Caleb said, as they all saw Stiles' hands light up with red sparks and lightning hitting the ground as an orb of glowing red energy formed in his hands. "This form of energy ball is very destructive and dangerous, I had no idea Stiles was capable of wielding such power without years of practice." Caleb said as the orb grew larger with every second passing.
"That size can destroy an apartment building." Caleb said as the ball grew to the size of a basket ball.
The Orb continued to grow.
"I've never seen it any bigger then that, the power he has is incredible." Caleb said watching as fear started it appear in his eyes.
"We need to get away from this area right now! Any bigger and it could become unsteady." Caleb said as they turned into the forest walking towards Stiles but out of his view.
Caleb kept an eye on Stiles and the red energy ball, Stiles' eyes flashed and Caleb took it as a sign.
"Get Down!" Caleb said as Stiles released the energy ball.
Everyone laid on the ground as the red pulsing orb flew passed them at a top speed, heading for the side of the cliff meters from them. Caleb slammed his hands on the ground creating a force field to surround them just as the Ball of energy hit the rock wall.
Smoke and duct rushed passed them and around Caleb's protection bubble, debris hitting the glowing yellow force field causing ripples like stones hitting a surface of water. The dust began to settle, seeing the large hole in the cliff side. The red orb fading to nothing still causing damage to the rock wall, being swallowed by the rock.
"The Cryix has control again?" Allison asked.
"No way!" Scott said watching as Derek looked terrified at the destruction his lover had caused, and without a reason.
"Stiles, what happened?" Derek asked himself, looking at the large hole in the cliff, the red orb now dead. The sound still echoing through the forest.
"We need to get him before he does something like that in a populated area." Caleb said lifting his hands from the ground and the force field disappeared.
