《The Monster Inside ➺ Scott. M》Chapter 28
Advertisement
The three original siblings sat in the old fashioned livingroom quietly. Awkward silence filled the room.
"So... how's Scott?" Rebekah snorted.
Astrid gave her a threatening look by showing her werewolf eyes.
"I'm not scared" Rebekah laughed. Astrid gave her an annoyed look and snapped her neck.
"Wow... you killed two siblings in one night. Who are you and what have you done with my sister?" Nik laughed.
"Shut the fu-" Astrid was interrupted by her phone ringing. Of course, it was Scott.
"Yes?" Astrid asked Scott.
"W-we need your help. Stiles is missing."
-------------------------
Nik and Astrid waited outside Stiles' house for Scott since they can't get inside.
"If you hurt any of them, I swear, I'll dessicate you, burry you and pour cement over your grave" Astrid threatened her brother.
"Not keeping any promises" Niklaus winked at his sister with a smirk.
"Nik I'm ser-" she didn't finish her sentence as Scott and Isaac ran out of Stiles' house. "Where are you going?"
"Sheriff's station" Scott told Astrid and began walking once again, Astrid and Nik following him.
"Woah" Isaac said and stopped the three. "He..." Isaac pointed at Nik "Is not coming with us."
"Mate, you don't really have a say in this" Niklaus told Isaac.
"Oh really-"
"Both of you shut the fuck up!" Astrid yelled at her brother and Isaac "we don't have time for this." She said as she began walking to the sheriff's station.
Scott and Isaac got on the motorbike and nodded at the vampires. "We'll meet you there." Astrid told them as she vamp sped to her destination with Nik.
She got there in under a minute and stood outside with Nik, waiting for the two. They all went inside and walked into sheriffs office once Scott and Isaac arrived.
"What's going on?" He asked, standing up.
"Stiles is missing" Scott told the sheriff.
"What do you mean he's missing?!" He asked, raising his voice.
"He called me, saying that he doesn't know where he is. We're trying to find him..." Scott said, looking at Stiles' father apologetically.
He left the room and leaned on deputy's, named Parrish, desk. He then got up and looked at the supernaturals behind him.
"If his jeep is gone, thats where we start." Sheriff told everyone. "Parrish, let's get an APB out on a blue 1980 CJ-5 jeep." He then turned to a different officer. "Cordova, I want a list of any kind of industrial basement or sub-level of any building that he could've gotten into while sleepwalking. It's the coldest night of the year so far. So if he's out there barefoot in just a T-shirt, he could already be Hypothermic. Let's move fast, let's think fast. The four of you, come with me." He said as he entered his office and and closed the door.
"Okay, is there anything you need to tell me that I can't tell everybody out there?"
"Lydia knew he was missing." Scott told the sheriff.
"Can she help find him?" Sheriff asked.
"Well, she's working on it." Isaac said.
"Who are you and can I trust you?" Sheriff asked Nik.
"He's my brother" Astrid replied. "And yes, you can trust him."
"Okay good. Anything else?" Sheriff asked, trying to keep calm.
"I called Derek and Allison for help." Scott said.
"Umm... I think me and Nik should try looking for him in the forest" Astrid interrupted.

"Why in the forest? He said he's in a basement" Isaac said.
"Yes well... he said that he was sleepwalking right? Maybe he still is but he just doesn't know about it. He might be..." Astrid scoffed "literally anywhere."
"Of course, he might be in a basement but I think it'll be better if we also consider that he might still be asleep." Niklaus added.
"Yeah, thats a good idea. You two go and look for him in the forest. You two stay with me." Sheriff said and the original vampires left the building, vamp speeding to the woods.
"Should we turn?" Astrid asked.
"I will... you stay human" Nik said as he began taking his clothes on.
Astrid turned around and scoffed "human" she laughed.
Astrid heard growling and when she turned around, she saw a grey wolf standing behind her.
"Lets go" Nik told her telepathically.
----------------------
Rebekah woke up with a gasp. She looked at the table in front of her, on it stood a glass of whiskey with a note in front of it.
'Sorry for snapping your neck :( -A.M'
Rebekah smiled and drank the liquid, only to spit it out when all she could taste was vervain.
When she looked back at the table, she saw a note which was underneath the glass of whiskey.
'Just kidding :,D. -A.M'
"Fucking bitch!" Rebekah yelled.
--------------------------
"Do you think he wood be in the middle of the woods... or..." Astrid muttered.
"How am I supposed to know, little wolf?" Niklaus asked, sniffing for a scent of a human.
Astrid rolled her eyes. "Nik"
"What?"
"What gets wetter the more it dries?" Astrid smiled at her brother.
"Are you really giving me riddles right now?" Nik said, rolling his wolf eyes at his sister's imatture behaviour.
"I'm trying to make this situation a bit less... tense." Astrid said. "So... what gets wetter the more it dries?"
"A towel" Nik replied.
"When is a door not a door?"
"I don't know"
"Oh come on.. think about it. When is a door not a door?" Astrid asked.
"When it's ajar" Rebekah said as she walked towards the two. She walked closer to Astrid and slapped her.
"I deserved that" Astrid said, rubbing her cheek.
"What are we looking for?" Rebekah questioned.
"My friend... tell me if you'll smell blood, sweat or an incredible amount of fear" Astrid told Rebekah.
"Okay." Rebekah replied.
The three searched for five minutes in silence until Rebekah decided to say something. "I am a part of a bird that's not in the sky. I can swim in the ocean yet still remain dry. What am I?"
"Ummm..." Astrid said, thinking.
"A shadow." Nik answered as he shook his head.
"Oh yeah. I have another one.. everyone has it but no one can lose it
What is it?" Astrid asked.
The two siblings remained silent, unable to think of an answer.
"I don't know." Rebekah said, stopping.
"Don't stop, love." Astrid said and Rebekah began walking again. "You two give up?"
"No!" Rebekah and Nik said in unison.
The three stopped when they heard someone screaming nearby.
"This way!" Astrid said as she vamp sped in the direction of the screaming. The three got to Stiles 30 seconds later. They found him laying on the ground, screaming.

"Stiles! Wake up!" Astrid shouted as she shook the boy. "Stiles!" She shouted once again but louder and he woke up, not knowing what was happening. He hugged Astrid tightly, terrified. Astrid hugged him back, rocking him back and forth to calm him down. "Shhhh... it's okay." she said quietly as she hugged him, stroking his brown hair.
A car soon pulled over. Melissa and Agent McCall ran towards them.
"I'll call the sheriff" Melissa said.
----------------------------
"You two can go home if you want" Astrid told her siblings while they sat in hospital.
"Oka-" Rebekah said but Nik stopped her, pointing at Astrid. Showing her that Astrid was really worried and they should probably stay with her.
"We'll stay. We don't have anything better to do anyway" Niklaus told her. "And I don't want to leave you alone... with Scott"
Astrid chuckled softly "Thank you" Astrid smiled and rested her head on Nik's shoulder.
"He's sleeping now." Sheriff said as he walked towards the vampires, Lydia, Scott and Scott's parents. "And he's just fine.
Astrid stood up and stood next to Lydia while her siblings stayed sat down.
"He doesn't remember much" sheriff added. "It's a bit like a dream to him... Thank you" sheriff told everyone. "Especially you three. I'm glad you went to look in the forest" sheriff smiled at the originals.
"Yeah whatever" Rebekah smiled.
"Rebekah!" Astrid said annoyed. "Shut the hell up" she whispered. "You're welcome, sheriff" Astrid smiled apologetically.
"Alright.. you three have school in less than six hours. Go home" Melissa told the teenagers.
"Okay" Astrid smiled at everyone and her siblings got up. "Goodnight" Astrid said as she hugged Scott and gave him a small peck. Nik pulled her away by her arm and started walking back to the mansion with a 'seriously?' Look on his face.
----------------------------
The next day, Astrid went downstairs to her kitchen, took out a a blood back from the fridge and went to her living room, still in her pyjamas.
She took a a huge sip and coughed after swallowing in. All she tasted was vervain.
"It's just dyed water with a lot... and I mean a lot of vervain in it" Rebekah laughed.
"You absolute cunt!" Astrid yelled and Rebekah ran away laughing.
Astrid walked back to the kitchen to drink from another blood bag but this one was also filled with vervain.
"Rebekah! Where are my bloody blood bags!" Astrid shouted.
"I don't know... guess you'll have to eat a human" Rebekah laughed. Astrid's eye twitched and she squeezed the blood bag, the dyed water falling everywhere around her.
"Rebekah just give her the blood bags" Nik said and Rebekah rolled her eyes.
"There" she said as she threw her a blood bag. "You'll have to look for the rest yourself" she laughed and walked away.
"Bitch..." Astrid muttered as she drank the blood.
-------------------
At school, Astrid was dreading her classes. She stood with Scott near his locker as he took out his books. Lydia stood near them, breathing heavily.
"Are you Okay?" Astrid asked the banshee.
"Yeah" she replied. "Just a little hypersensitive to loud sounds today."
Someone closed their locker and she jumped up because of the loud sound.
"They're doing tests on Stiles all afternoon. I was going to go over at around 6pm to visit. Do you two wanna come with me?" Scott asked.
"I'll come" Astrid smiled.
"I should probably just go home" Lydia said quietly and walked away.
--------------------
Astrid and Scott stood next to Stiles near near the X-ray machine.
"Stiles, just to warn you, you're going to hear a lot of noise during the MRI. It's due to pulses of electricity going through the coils inside the machine. Uh, if you want we can get you earplugs or headphones." The doctor suggested.
"No, No, No, I don't need anything" Stiles told the doctor.
"Hey, we're just on the other side of that window." Stiles' father said. "Okay?"
"Okay" Stiles nodded. His father, Melissa and the doctor left the room and left Stiles alone with his friends. "You know what they're looking for, right?" Scott and Astrid stayed quiet. "It's called frontotemporal dementia. Areas of your brain start to shrink. It's what my mother had. It's the only form of dementia that can hit teenagers. And there's nor cure."
"Everything will be Okay, Stiles." Astrid ruffled his hair.
"Yeah... Astrid can heal you if you have it" Scott said and Astrid looked at them not knowing what to say.
Stiles stared at her. "I... guess" Astrid said, looking away.
They both hugged Stiles and left the room.
"Scott... I- I have to tell you something" Astrid said with tears in her eyes.
"What is it?" Scott questioned.
"I can't heal him if he has it." She sighed as she sat down.
"What do you mean? I thought your blood can heal everything."
"It can... theoretically"
.
replied weakly. Astrid sat next to her and grabbed her hand,

smiled.

Idon't know it will .

sighed. She walked her best friend as she bit her wrist and put it on her mouth. Her friend
Astridand saw her friend walking doctorsfoundopposite. It
Her andEmily refused to drink human blood to complete her transformation and died one last time a few hours later.
"So she died even though you gave her your blood?" Scott questioned.
"Yes. I sped it up. Scott... if I give Stiles my blood, the same thing will probably happen." She explained.
"Then that leaves us one choice. If he has it, I will turn him." Scott said.
Derek joined the two sitting in the waiting room and sat across them.
"He was trying to protect us" Scott said as he auddenly stood up. "Stiles was trying to protect us"
"From himself" Derek said as he also stood up.
"He's no longer himself. He's possessed by the Nogitsune" Astrid added.
----------------------
The three ran to the roof. "What are we looking for?" Derek asked.
"I'm not sure" Scott said. "But I think Stiles wasn't just up here struggling with himself. I think he was struggling not to do something." Scott said as he took a bag of tools from a box that was protecting an electricity generator.
He looked back up and saw that one of the wires was cut half way.
They were about the leave the roof and go back inside the hospital but the cut cable separated and fell off the building and onto the hospital parking lot into a puddle of water. A few people were instantly electrocuted.
"What the hell!" Astrid shouted.

8 83The Radiant War
The human world is aflame with war. Nations clash with their neighbours, while the Kelvon Empire, bulwark of the human world, stands on the brink of civil war. The plans of the enemies of mankind to destroy human civilisation, to restore their own mastery of the world, are well on the way to success. The people of Helberion have vowed to defeat those plans, though. Peace must be restored between the various peoples of mankind so that they can combine their efforts against their true enemy. Even while her country strives to avoid conquest and defeat at the hands of their traditional enemies the Carrowmen, therefore, Princess Ardria journeys to Carrow to meet with the enemy King in an almost hopeless attempt to persuade him of the truth. All her hopes rest on the assumption that he in an unwitting dupe of the true enemy, but lurking at the back of her mind is the fear that he may be all too aware of the truth, that he may have sold out humanity for the promise of personal power. If this is true, then all that awaits her at the end of her journey through fear and danger is imprisonment and the life of a hostage to be used against her father, King Leothan. The Brigadier would help her if he could, but he and Malone, his former batman, are far away, each having their own missions to try and ensure the survival of human civilisation. Having completed his latest task, the Brigadier must race to join her, to assist and protect her, but will he reach her before she arrives at the palace of the enemy King? And will the Princess still have a country to be Princess of by the time she arrives there? Because even if Helberion manages to defeat the all conquering armies of Carrow there is another, even deadlier threat waiting in the wings against which there may be no defence... This is volume three of the Ontogeny series. If you haven't read volume one, Ontogeny, and volume Two, The Electric Messiah, you should read them first.
