Chaos had ensued. Everything seemed to be happening too fast for any of them to even comprehend. Isaac had a breakdown the moment he realized they had lost both Theo and Venus, Stiles' dad had almost died, Scott came back from the dead and no one had heard from Malia or Lydia in a couple days.

Parrish had gone by Scotts house, dragging along a catatonic Lydia that he apparently found in the woods. Now, Scott and Isaac were making their way through the hospital. Melissa had called her son a couple hours ago to inform him about what happened to Noah and he knew he had to come see him.

The duo make their way out of the elevator, spotting Stiles arguing with Melissa and another doctor through the double doors. Isaac stood his ground while Scott ventured forward, peering into the room on their right where Noah was resting. The Stilinski boy spots them through the doors and immediately makes a beeline for Scott. He grabs him by the collar, slamming him into the wall before dropping him to the ground.

"Where were you? You trusted him. You believed him." Stiles groans, pinning the boy down as Isaac watches, knowing Stiles had every right to be mad. "So where were you? Where the hell were you!"

Melissa and the doctor come rushing after him with a security guard, pulling the boys apart aggressively before anymore more damage could be done. The two best friends now stood in opposite sides of the hallway, staring each other down. Scott shares a look with Isaac, coming to a silent agreement it would be better coming from the alpha.

"Stiles, your dad's not the only one who got hurt." he speaks quietly, not meeting the boys eyes.

"Oh, you'll heal." Stiles scoffs, pulling away from the doctor.

Isaac lets out a heavy sigh before intervening. "We're not talking about us."

And Stiles knew by the look in Isaacs eyes that something had happened to Venus. His shoulders fall slack, his mouth agape, not quite understanding what had happened. Melissa leads them further down the hallway, away from prying ears.

"Theo has Venus." the Lahey boy confirms, the sadness evident in his tone. "We don't know where they are, but she was hurt when he took her."

Stiles swore he could feel his heart drop to his feet in terror. He saw what happened to his dad, how much blood he'd lost and they had barely saved him at the hospital. Now with the revelation of Venus being hurt when she was taken, the boy couldn't get the image of his girlfriend bleeding out somewhere out of his head.

"And he got Lydia too." Scott adds. "He dumped her in the woods though, Parrish found her."

Stiles had went down to see Lydia for himself, getting a talking to from her mother. Her catatonic state only made him more terrified for his girlfriend, they had no idea where Theo was let alone Venus.

•••

"You killed my best friend?" Stiles asks, his eyes filling with tears. They had come up with a plan to get Theo to tell them what was wrong with his dad and where they would find Venus. The Chimera had come to him himself, probably with the aim to rub his victory in the human boys face.

"Let's be honest, Stiles." Theo starts, fumbling with Scotts shirt in his hands. "Was he still really your best friend?"

"Are you gonna let my father die?"

"If I wanted him to die I wouldn't have told you where you can find him."

Stiles pushes himself to stand, staring down the boy in front of him. "Then why are they saying his body is shutting down? Some toxin's poisoning him and they don't know how to stop it."
