chapter sixty six enough for you
━━━━━━ ◦ ❖ ◦ ━━━━━━
THE RIFT was almost mocking her, teasing her as Odessa Stone reached her arm out for any kind of contact she may have with the boy coming into the light. But as soon as the rift appeared, it vanished.
Odessa froze in her stance, not believing her eyes. He was right there. Stiles was right there in front of her. And then he was gone, again. Everything around her grew silent. The only thing she could hear was the sound of her own breathing but even she didn't know if she actually was.
It was almost as if the blonde was having an out-of-body experience. She could feel her heart beating, her chest expanding with breath, her hands shaking at her sides. But she couldn't tell if any of it was actually happening or not.
Memory upon memory had to be dragged out from the depths of Odessa's mind so Stiles could be brought back. Brought back to her. But he was nowhere to be found. But she could feel him now. She knew it worked. It had to have worked.
"Odie?"
The Stone whipped her body around, seemingly coming out of her frozen state at the sound of her name being called from behind her. Her heart dropped at the sight of her three best friends, watching her warily, almost afraid anything they could say next would break her.
"Where is he," Odessa looked between her friends, her mind going a mile a minute, "it was working. You saw him, right?"
Malia shook her head sympathetically, "we didn't see anyone."
Looking back at the tunnel where the rift just was, the blonde denied, "no. He was here. I know it. Stiles was here."
Worried for their friend, Scott, Malia and Lydia all chipped in to guide Odessa back into the bunker. While the two girls helped the blonde move further into the room, Scott latched onto the door to shut it, but before he could, another hand caught it to keep it open.
"Liam," the McCall gasped, not expecting to see his Beta.
"There's something you need to see."
"You're still here."
"But everyone else is gone," Liam shared, causing all four older teens to widen their eyes in shock, "all of them. They're all gone. Look, you have to come with me."
Scott faltered, "what is it?"
"I-I can't explain it," the Dunbar stammered nervously, bouncing on his feet, "I have to show you."
