"Well, it seems to me that the best relationships - the ones that last - are frequently the ones that are rooted in friendship. You know, one day you look at the person and you see something more than you did the night before. Like a switch has been...

Scott looked at Liam when the boy sighed. "You don't have to be part of it if you don't want to."
"I'm not scared." Liam said.

"You don't get paid." I said.
"But how does that get us any closer to The Benefactor?" Liam asked.
"He still needs to know if the target is really dead." Scott said.
"Especially if it's someone high on the list." Stiles finished.
"So, if he wants visual confirmation..." Liam asked.
"He's going to have to come get it himself."
I hate this plan so much.
What we're going to do is: Kira's mom is going to teach me how to use my power to stop Scott's heart. He's going to die and then, after a time, while we wait for The Benefactor. I'm going to bring him back.
