Teen Wolf || Next Generation

Chapter 11: Grave

Scott paced nervously up and down the Derek loft. "Did you just said Tara?" exclaimed, stopping suddenly. Malia and Kira looked up at him.
"That Tara? Theo's ... dead sister?" Malia whispered to her friend. Kira answered her with a shocked look.
"Scott, where are Liam and Theo?" Mason's voice was on speakerphone. "Liam had to go to get him to the hospital and come here," Scott answered, worried now. "But they have not arrived yet"
"We have to find them, Tara wants Theo"
"But she will not kill him," added Deaton's voice, probably next to Mason.
"What do you mean" she will not kill him "?" Malia said, struggling to hold back a bitter laugh. "He killed her, if I were her, I would like to tear his heart out with my hands!"
"If it's true that she wants the grave, for some obscure reason, Theo is the only one who knows where it is ..." replied the vet.
"You have to find them," Mason added again, his voice trembling with agitation.
"Well, family meeting" A voice behind them forced them all to turn around.
"Ahh dad!" Malia snapped, exasperated.
"If you're looking for the beta, it's here" Peter let them pass, Liam was slumped along the wall, his chest bleeding. "Yellow wolfbane, we will need a good flame"
Scott leaned over Liam as Peter crossed the room to the desk. "Liam, everything will be fine," Scott assured him.
"Scott ... it's Tara," he mumbled, his face questioned by the sweat.
"We know, do not worry ..."
"She took Theo," he said softly. "Scott ... we have to save him ... He ..."

"Liam, do not force yourself" the alpha said him , grabbing him by the shoulder. In response, Liam squeezed a piece of the shirt pulling him tight, or at least how strong he could at such a moment. "Scott ... we have to save him," he said in a faint voice, a desperate expression that mingled with the physical pain on his face.
Peter approached, the blowtorch in his hand, and turned it on. "It will not be pleasant, I say it from experience"

"How is Liam?" Mason said, worried, when Scott and Peter returned to the large hall.
"He's resting," Scott said only.
"What's going on now?" Alec asked. Malia and Kira looked at each other, sitting on the sofa.
"It seems obvious to me that we have to save Theo, and to do that we have to save Lisa first," Nolan said.
"We already have a plan for that," said Alec.
"And once she becomes a shadow-devour-anime again, how do you think of sending it back to hell?" asked Malia sarcastic.
"Er ... there's no plan for that part of the plan," the wolf replied.
"Perfect"
"We do not even know where they are"
"If she wants the grave they'll be in the woods," Kira suggested.
"Wait, did you say grave?" interrupted Peter, who had remained aloof so far. "I think I understand"
Malia snapped to her feet. "If you know something, talk, we have no time to waste"
"I guess I never told you about the fascinating way I came back to life," he said sarcastically.
Scott looked at him. "You talk about when you manipulated Lydia to force her to take Derek on your ..." The boy broke off.
"What?" asked Malia.
"You say she wants to get her real body back?"
"What's the use of it? She already has one," said Mason.
"Yes, but maybe in Lisa's body she does not have full powers," suggested Corey.
"It's not like that, even if it owns that girl, that thing remains a shadow made of resentment and a desire for revenge. She knows no other feeling, the only logic that follows is that. Lisa is probably a means to an end. to return to her true body, the same one that Theo has killed. In his mind distorted by the desire of revenge that is the only body with which she can truly implement her plan "
"Like brother like sister," Malia commented. "Psychosis is a family characteristic"

"So that's why she wants the grave, there are her remains here, and Theo will contribute with his blood because he is the only relative in life," Kira summarized.
"There is another requirement: the full moon," added Peter
"Which is in three days," Alec concluded.
"We could let her get her body back," Nolan suggested. Everyone looked at him "So Lisa will be free, and we will seal the real Tara in hell"
"The shadow you have faced will be nothing compared to what you will find to fight if she get her real body back," Peter exclaimed.
"And that would mean ... sacrifice Theo," Mason added.
"Since when is Theo's salvation one of our priorities?" exclaimed Malia
"Liam would never forgive us," Alec said weakly. Malia looked at him questioningly.
"He's right," Scott said, marveling her even more "You do not know how he looked at me ..." he did "when he told me about Theo .. he begged me to save him ... he seemed ... he was desperate"
Mason was silent for a moment. "Things have changed now," he said, while everyone turned to look at him.
"Theo has changed," added Corey, thinking to help.
