Eighteen months later….
Stiles found himself on the outskirts of Japan. It surprised him how much he has been on the road for the last year and a half. There were often times he would think of home most nights after running away.
He and Roger had recently moved to the outskirts of Japan since their place of work had them transferred. Roger helped Stiles enroll in the local school. Even taking and picking him up from school then dropping him off at work since their home was not far from work.
In the last eighteen months Stiles had legally changed his last name to make a new bank account and to prevent Jordan ever finding him and then try to convince him to return home. He and Roger have had a joyful life in the last eighteen months.
A week later, after getting enrolled into school quickly found some friends creating his own little entourage of rowdy teens. Life was great now that he made new friends but unbeknownst to him that will soon change quickly.
One day at work his friends came in after finding out where he worked there. They enter the diner with mischief on their face while sitting down in the Stiles section. Stiles then walked over to their table.
"Hey guys, what are you doing here?"
"Oh nothing much," said the leader of the group."
"Yugi if you're here to make trouble as always then please leave."
"Come on Stiles is that anyway to talk to an old friend."
"The last time I saw you guys you rat me out on a crime that I didn't commit. I was sentenced to prison for ten months because of you five lying to cover your own asses. That is also the reason why I left your group in the first place. At first I thought you guys were cool but eventually I found out how wrong I was. So back to my original question: why are you here?"
"Well about that news on the street that there is a mansion filled with the same creatures that caused your fathers death and our parents need a little extra help in the job."
"Then count me out of it. I am not going to commit murder and end up in jail again."
"Suit yourself then. We just thought after the suffering those abominations put you through in the past. You would be willing to help eradicate them. Guess I was wrong on that part."
Yugi and his four other twins left but not before leaving a note about the operation and a tiny roll of cash. Stiles went back to waiting on table after chucking both into the shredder but not before memorizing the operation time and date. Four hours later, Stiles finished up his shift as he was leaving and saw Roger outside waiting for him.
"You know I can drive home by myself right?"
"I do but what kind of boyfriend would I be to let my sweetie drive home so late at night."
Shaking his head in utter bewilderment. Rogers over coddling reminded him of how much Jordan cared for him. Pushing the thought away then grabbing Rogers hand walking to the jeep. Hopping in and starting it up.
Three minutes later, they arrived at their house. Stiles pushed the button next to the overhead to open the garage. Thirty seconds later, the garage finished opening and Stiles pulled the jeep inside.
Pressing the button once again waiting for the garage to close before getting out. After the garage door closed they both hopped out of the jeep and headed inside. Slumping on the couch and taking off his shirt to relax. Eventually Roger came over with some hot soup for Stiles who gladly accepted it with a kiss.
"Thanks babe this is just what I need after being stuck in that cold diner. I wished the manager had called a damn electrician to fix the heater."
"I know what you mean man. Most shifts I have to wear a hoodie under my uniform. By the time I get home I stink like a pig from the sweat."
"Diddo."
"Anyways, how was your day at work?"
"It was great until Yugi and his brothers came in."
"Damn I thought you got rid of them after you told the police what happened."
"I thought so too. But like they said their family practically owns this town so they have daddies and mommies money on their side."
"What did they want?"
"Well they said that they wanted help with a mission to help murder a mansion full of Chimera's. Thinking that since I have a past with them causing the death of my father that I would be willing to help. Don't worry I turned them down. I rather not go back to jail again. I was lucky that the case for my imprisonment was dropped after I told them what really happened a month into my sentence."
"Good! Because that month was very lonely. I practically had to beg our boss to give you your job back. Thankfully he gave in and let you back since you showed proof of the wrongdoing."
"Yes I will owe you for a while for going the lengths for me babe. But anyway, how was college?"
"Midterms are killer. I don't know how I am surviving through it all."
"Because you have me to think about." Stiles teased.
The teasing caused Roger to give Stiles an affectionate slug to the arm. Knowing that Roger enjoyed the teasing in more ways than one. After a half hour of chatting about their day Roger noticed that Stiles had fallen asleep with the empty bowl in his lap.
Roger got up and grabbed the bowl then walked into the kitchen and put it in the sink. Walking back to the living room picking up Stiles and cradling him in his arms then walking upstairs to their room.
Two minutes later, arriving at the room and walking in and shutting the door with his foot. Walking over to the bed and placing Stiles down then started to undress Stiles and himself. Climbing on the bed, getting under the covers and pulling Stiles close to his chest.
Stiles then unconsciously wrapped an arm around Rogers waist. Laying back Roger instantly fell asleep. Twelve hours later, they were awakened by the alarm clock. Reaching over Roger pressed the button to turn it off. Pushing Stiles from his chest but it caused Stiles to look up at him and tighten his embrace around his waist.
"Babe, we have to get up. You have final exams today and I have work."
"Don't wanna." Said Stiles with his puppy dog eyes.
"Nope, I am going to work, you're going to school and finish the year. Even if I have to drag you downstairs kicking and screaming then take you to school in your underwear."
"You wouldn't."
"Try me."
At that Stiles let go his embrace and climbed out of bed removing his boxers then headed into the bathroom for a quick shower. Five minutes later, Stiles emerged from the bathroom wrapped in a towel but noticed that Roger was absent.
Going over to the dresser and pulling out clothes. Quickly getting dressed then grabbed his wallet and keys then headed downstairs. Upon arriving downstairs Stiles heard the basement shower turn off and footsteps coming upstairs. A minute later, Roger appeared wrapped in a towel.
"I see you finally got downstairs, I am happy."
Sticking his tongue out in annoyance.
Walking over to his boyfriend and hugging him. Breaking the embrace and heading upstairs. Five minutes later, Roger returned clothed and ready.
"Ready."
"As I will ever be."
"Babe don't be that way after today you have until fall until school. That means more time with me since my exams are not until in a few months."
Stiles brightened up at that. Kissing Roger then licking his face lick a cat.
"Babe what's with the cat licks. Not that I don't like it but you've been doing that a lot as of late."
"I don't know, it just seems natural for me to do it that is all."
Accepting the answer Roger headed for the garage door in the kitchen with Stiles following behind. Walking through the door into the garage then hopping into the jeep. Roger started it up and then they were off.
On the road Stiles couldn't help but have a sinking feeling that something bad is about to happen. Pushing the feeling away and looking outside watching the woods. Thirty minutes later, they arrived at the school. Stiles hopped out but not before kissing Roger. Waving goodbye and then walking to the school entrance. Upon arriving at the entrance he ran into Yugi.
"Hey Stiles, have you changed your mind about what I said yesterday evening?"
"Answer will and still be no ASSHOLE so stop nagging me about it."
"ASSHOLE now that one hurts. We used to be amazing friends like peas in a pod."
"That was before I realized what a jerk you and your brothers are. Now if you will excuse me I would like to make my final exams early so I have time to prepare. I suggest you do the same if your sorry ass doesn't want to get held back again like your delinquent brothers."
At that admission enraged Yugi causing him to see red. The next second he was wailing on Stiles. After a good ten minutes saw this unfold and pulled Yugi off Stiles. Stiles quickly got up and ran inside to the exam room not caring about his broken and bloody nose.
After five minutes of running he made it with twenty minutes to spare. Thanking his lucky stars that he has some time to do a little review for the exam. Fifteen minutes later, the door opened and a parade of students walked in.
Stiles was shocked that Yugi was absent but not his brothers. Thinking that he got suspended for violence and had an automatic fail. Yugi's brother looked towards Stiles with revenge in their eyes. Stiles ignored them and focused on his extra studying.
Ten minutes later, the door opened again to reveal the exam proctor holding the exams and checkboards. Going down the rows placing both on each table. By the time the proctor got to his table Stiles had reassured himself that he was definitely ready. Quickly putting away his books and phone in his backpack steading himself for the torture.
"Students, you have two hours to finish. Remember this exam will count as twenty-five percent of your final grade when you graduate. Be diligent in your choices, ready and start.
For the next two hours all Stiles heard was the clicking and scraping of pencils. Every few minutes he would look behind him and see the brothers caring more about staring at him then passing the exam.
After twenty minutes into the exam the proctor noticed the brothers of Yugi not even bothering with their exams. Getting up and walking by their tables and picking up barely finished answer sheets. Dismissing them and then sat back down.
The whole time the boys were staring at Stiles all the way to the door and after they left. An hour and a half later, Stiles finished his exam early. Taking two minutes to check over his answers. Happy with what he chose he got up and handed his answer sheet and booklet to the proctor then left the classroom.
Heading down to the nurses office so he can have his injuries looked at. Arriving he walked in and the head nurse greeted him then told him to sit down. Two minutes later, the assistant came out of her office to see what their favorite patient got himself into this time.
Once again seeing him with a broken and bloody nose. Grabbing gauze and aliment strips. Cleaning up the dried blood and placing the aliment strips and giving him some painkillers then Stiles left.
Heading down the rest of the way of the hall and out to the front entrance. After exiting the school Stiles pulled out his phone and called an uber to take him home since it was his day off. Ten minutes later, the uber arrives climbing in, seeing it is the same driver he usually gets.
Thankfully they remember the way to his house. The driver pulled away from the school. Twenty minutes later, the driver stopped in front of the house and Stiles climbed out but not before handing the tip to the driver.
Waving goodbye and walked up the door unlocking it and walked in closing it and locked it. Placing his backpack on the counter. Not seconds after he did there was a knock at the door. Walking over, opening it slightly since the upper latch was on revealing Yugi.
"What do you want, asshole?"
"I wanted to apologize for earlier I overreacted. You know how I get when my brother's are talked about poorly."
"I really doubt that. You showed your true colors years ago and since then it is impossible to believe you anymore. So leave before Roger gets back because if he sees you here he will beat the living crap out of you. From what you did to me five months ago."
Yugi went to his van and left, then Stiles shut the door and relocked it. Walking to the stairs and going up to their bedroom. Removing his shoes and pants then sitting down on the bed thinking to himself. Three hours later, he heard the garage door open and close then a door open and close. Getting off the bed and running downstairs to see Roger carrying groceries.
"Hey babe, how was work?"
"Good, extremely busy but good. How was the exam and what happened to your face?"
"The exam I am pretty sure I aced it and this happened because of Yugi again."
"That bastard I will kill him if I ever see him."
"Babe calm down, it is just a broken nose."
"It's not because of the broken nose it's the principle. That kid needs to be put behind bars."
"I totally agree but let's not allow this incident to get in the way of our anniversary and worry about Yugi and his brothers another day."
Roger nodded at that. Stiles then walked into the kitchen to help unload the groceries. Ten minutes later, after the groceries were unloaded they started to prepare the ingredients for the casserole.
Twenty minutes later, the casserole was made, then they started on the dessert and main course. Thirty minutes later, they finished preparing both and then put all three into the oven. Four hours later, the timer went off so they got up and grabbed oven mitts and took out the food.
Setting each one on heat-resistant pads in the middle of the small table. Sitting down across from each other with their legs entangled since the table was so small. Seconds later they started to plate up serving of the side and main course.
"Since we have a month of PTO saved up, why don't we use it to go on a vacation to the bahamas. We have always talked about going there but were too busy to do so. Me with work plus classes, and you with work and school. Now that it is summer break for the both of us from school it is the perfect time."
"Why not let's tell our boss next week to have our month of PTO start the following Sunday. Said Stiles."
"Sounds like a plan."
Going back to eating they had their fill in both courses and then dined on the dessert. Thirty minutes later, with bellies filled they both cleaned up bringing the leftovers to the counter. Taking out containers and putting half of the leftovers into each container for tomorrow then putting the containers in the fridge and rinsing off the used dishes and putting them into the dishwasher.
Three minutes later they put everything away after doing so they both headed upstairs hand in hand. Eventually arriving at the bedroom. Going inside and stripping down to their boxers and got under the covers.
Twelve hours later, they were woken by the alarm clock. Stiles reached over to shut it off. Then they got out of bed and got ready for work. Ten minutes later, they went through the door to the garage and pushed the button to open it.
Hopping into the van by the time they were buckled and situated the door was opened. Roger pulled out and they were off to work. Twenty minutes later, they arrived at work turning off the van and hopping out.
They walked up to the entrance hand in hand. Stiles went to his position as host/waiter while Roger went to the back start prepping ingredients being the chef assistant. An hour into their shift Stiles' attention was drawn to the TV news report detailing a fire on the interstate near the woods.
Remembering that the note he memorized detailed 10 am Tuesday next week. Shrugging it off realizing it being just a wildfire. Turning his attention back to his duties. For the next ten hours the diner got busy Stiles and Roger were barely even able to squeeze in their hour break but managed even though there were a few call offs.
Half an hour later, their shift ended and the night shift employees arrived. They were happy to leave five minutes later, they grabbed their to go orders and left. Hopping into the van and headed back home.
Twenty minutes later, they arrived home Roger pushed the button to open the garage door. Thirty seconds later, the finished opening Roger pulled into the garage and pressed the button again to close it.
Turning off the van and then they hopped out, closed the doors and went through the kitchen entrance. Putting their keys into the bowl and hanging up their aprons and hats. Walking over to the fridge, taking out the leftovers, grabbing forks from the drawer and sat down on the couch.
Turning on the tv turning it to channel thirty-three for TNT since the Matrix marathon is about to start. Digging into the leftovers while cuddling shoulder to shoulder with each other. Six hours later, food gone and the marathon over they got up and went to the kitchen to rinse the containers.
Placing the rinsed containers and forks into the dishwasher. Stiles grabbed a Cascade solution pouch and tossed it into the washer and Roger closed it and started it up. Interlinking their hands and walking upstairs to their bedroom. Entering and stripping down to their boxers and climbing into bed within minutes they were asleep.
Nine days later…..
Stiles was at work while Roger was packing for the vacation. Just as Stiles was going to go on break the TV caught his attention. The reporter was detailing a mysterious fire that happened at a mansion.
Stiles then remembers what day and time it is. Panicking, he took his hour break. Hopping into his jeep and driving to Yugi's house to confront him and his brothers. Ten minutes later, he arrived at their home, hopped out his jeep and ran up to the door and pounded on it for a good five minutes before an answer.
"What do you want, Stiles? I thought we are no longer friends?"
"We aren't. I just thought I'd let you know you're not going to get away this time."
"Whatever do you mean?"
"Burning down the mansion that is."
"How are you going to prove it?"
"Easily I never told you this but my late father and the sheriff of this town are old college buddies. I convinced him to set up cameras around the mansion. So I would like to see you parent's money get you out of this because since the last scandal your parents have lost most of the revenue and hold on to the town."
"Bastard I will kill you for this and whore of a boyfriend of yours. You are aware they statutory rape is illegal right?"
"It is if we are actually having sex that we are not so good luck getting him arrested."
"That's it."
Before Stiles' eyes Yugi's features changed.
"Bastard, you are one of them. You made me like you and nearly fell in love with you."
"Not one of what we just killed Chimera's are an abomination to the supernatural. Next to demons and half-demons they are a scourge on the world and need to be eradicated."
Before Stiles was even able to run, Yugi pounced on him and began to slash and beat him up. By the time he was done Stiles was a broken and bloody mess then passed out. Twenty minutes later, Stiles regained consciousness and against better judgment got into his jeep and headed home.
On his way home he called in sick. By the time he made it home what he saw was that the front door was broken down. Limping out of the jeep then grabbed a branch for support. Walking up to the door looking around for any sign of the intruder still there.
Finding none limping inside but when he got inside what he saw shattered his heart into a million pieces. Roger on the floor literally torn apart like a bear got into the house. Regaining his composure pulling out his cell and dialed 911.
"Hello 911 fire police or ambulance?"
"Police please to 358 washword ave I like to report a homicide."
"Right away sir, the police are on their way."
Twenty minutes later, Stiles could hear sirens approaching. Two minutes later, he heard the cars pull into the driveway and the door open then close.
"Police?"
"In the kitchen."
"What the hell happened here?"
"I don't know I found him this way."
"Can you explain why you look that way?"
"Had a run in with an old friend."
"Any evidence to back that up?"
"Yes look at the recorder in my jeep it registers and records everywhere I go."
One of the officers left and then returned a minute later.
"His story checks out a video showing him at the Holliver residences forty minutes ago during the time of death of the victim."
Stiles saw the cops cleaning up the aftermath and on the phone.
"Sir we found the assailants from eye witnesses of both murders the murder here and the murders at the mansion culprits are the Holliver boys."
"Like to see their parents' money get them out of this."
"Agreed. Those boys are nothing but trouble and deserve to be locked up forever. Now that their parents have lost most of their backing that is now possible."
"Sorry for your loss Sir. Would you like one of us to take you to the hospital to get you looked at? Then bring you home."
Stiles nodded. The youngest of the group went over and carefully picked up Stiles and carried him to his jeep. Stiles handed him his keys, the deputy gladly accepted them and unlocked the back door. Placing Stiles in the back and buckling him up.
The deputy then closed the door and hopped in front starting up the jeep. Thirty minutes later, they arrived at the emergency entrance. The deputy turned off the jeep and hopped out walking to the back door and unbuckling Stiles and carefully picking him up carrying him inside.
Before the deputy had a chance to alert a nurse. There was one already heading towards them with an OPT cart. Placing Stiles on the cart and holding his hand all the way to the OR. Releasing his hand once they arrived. Two hours later, the nurse came out.
"Surgery was a success. Sadly he won't be able to do much for a little over a year. He lost quite a bit of blood and many bones are broken. He also suffered several lacerations by a knife or something we can't really tell. He is alive and awake if you want to take him home."
The deputy nodded. Minutes later, Stiles was pushed out in a wheelchair and handed over to the deputy.
"Ready to go home kid?"
Stiles nodded. The deputy pushed him outside to his jeep and then opened the back letting him climb in. After he was situated in and buckled the deputy folded the wheelchair and put it and the crutches into the trunk.
Hopping into the front and starting up the jeep. Thirty minutes later, they arrived back at his house. They both noticed that a door had already been replaced. Pulling into the driveway and then turning off the jeep.
Stepping out and walking to the back taking out the wheelchair and crutches. Opening the back door and handing one of the crutches to Stiles then walked up to the door. Removing the keys taped to the outside light and unlocked it.
By the time the door was unlocked Stiles had gotten out and shut the door. Limping forward with the crutch eventually made it to the door. The deputy placed the folded wheelchair and other crutch inside and then went over to Stiles to help him in. Eventually they got inside and the deputy closed the door behind them.
"Well here you are sir if you need anything here is my card I am there if you need it. Again sorry for your loss."
"Thanks deputy for everything you did for me. I shall not forget it and it is Stiles by the way."
"Nolan.'
"Nice to meet you Nolan."
"Likewise."
Nolan left and shut the door behind him.
Eighteen months later….
For the last eighteen months Stiles stayed at home and healed his mind and body. Sadly had to quit his job luckily he and Roger had saved up plenty in the last two years they had lived together. But eventually the reserves ran out between hiring a maid, housekeeper, groceries, repairs for the house and paying off the mortgage.
Three weeks later, Stiles had returned home from school glad that he could finally go in person now instead of doing classes through zoom. He saw an eviction noticed on the house front door. Sighing realizing that it was going to happen eventually since he had to finish school and barely was able to make money from odd jobs to keep up with bills.
Regrettably he went inside, closed the door and booted up his laptop. Placing the house on the market. A few days later, he got a call on an offer for a little over the asking price. Accepting the offer for the rest of the day he packed up what he was going to take and left what he was willing to let go.
Thankfully in the last nineteen months he sold the van and the jeep to buy a bigger jeep. Loading up the jeep by the time he was done the buyers arrived he handed them the keys and deed then they handed him a check.
Stile then pulled out his phone and called their bank to see if the check was legit. After finding out it was he opened up the app for the bank he used and deposited via the app. Waving goodbye to the family and hopping into the jeep. Pulling out of the driveway and driving away.
Ten weeks later….
Stiles arrived at the edge of Tokyo and pulled up to his new apartment. Hopping out of the jeep and headed to the front desk. Signing his year lease and grabbed his key from the receptionist. Walking back to his apartment, unlocking it and then started loading up the apartment.
A few days later, he was fully moved in and unpacked. Instead of making dinner he decided to go out. Since most restaurants were walking distance he decided to walk to the buffet. Ten minutes later, he arrived at the buffet and walked in and sat down at a booth.
"Good evening sir!"
"Good evening."
"Is there any drink you're interested in?"
"Yes, a coke and hot tea if you will please?"
"Right away sir."
The waiter left. Not a minute after he left Stiles noticed five boys coming his way and instantly recognized them. Freaking out he got out of the booth and ran out the back exit into the alley. Before he was able to get far Stiles was trapped. Both ends of the alley were blocked by the boys. Getting into a fighting stance to prepare for the worse.
"We finally found you little brat."
"Why aren't you in a high security prison?"
"Well we were on our way to one but the escorts underestimated their arrest." Said Yugi with a smirk.
"You killed them?"
"Like I should have killed you. But killing you was too easy. Making you suffer is a lot more fun."
"You ripped my boyfriend apart to make me suffer then you have to do better. It isn't the worst thing that has happened to me."
"Brother stop toying with him already. I want to see what his blood tastes like."
"Patience brothers, you will in time after I have my fun with him."
One moment Yugi was human the next he was a naked half-human half-beastman. Then lept towards Stiles. Landing on him and flipping him over.
"You smell so sweet, little bitch. This will be fun and most enjoyable."
"You sick bastard you plan to rape me and then let your vile brothers eat me."
"Oh posh they won't kill you if you are wondering just leave you bruised and broken like I did all those months ago."
For the next three hours Stiles was viciously brutalized and maimed. He thought it would never end but by a stroke of luck by the sound of an opening door the boys left him there bloody and naked.
