Chapter Forty-Four
๐ŸฆŠ Echo House ๐ŸฆŠ


Pulling up in front of Eichen House, Amara ans Scott instantly took off their helmets and got off their bikes, before rushing over to where Scott and his father stood. "Why didn't you tell us?" Scott asked, "Because we wanted to avoid something like this."

"It's only seventy-two hours." Stiles said and Amara shook her head, "Seventy-two hours too long. Stiles, this is the same place where Barrow came from. You realize that right?" She said and Stiles sighed softly and look away. "You don't know everything yet." Scott said looking over at Stilinski. "I know enough. Nogitsunes, Kitsunes, Oni, or whatever they're called..." Stilinski said making Stiles look at him in surprise and impressed, "Wow, that was actually all surprisingly correct."

"Guys, I saw an MRI that looked exact exactly like my wife's... and it terrifies me. I'm headed down to LA tomorrow to talk to a specialist." Stilinski said making them look at him confused, "Then why are you putting him here?" Amara asked.

"He's not. It's my decision." Stiles said making them look over at him, "Stiles, we can't help you if you're in here..." Scott said and Stiles shook his head. "And I can't hurt you." He said looking back and forth between them making Amara sigh softly.. "Stiles, that wasn't you. Deaton's got some ideas... Argent's calling people... We're going to find something. And, if we can't-" Amara said but Stiles cut her off.

"If you can't...If you can't, then you have to do something for me, okay? Make sure I never get out." Stiles said before walking away.

Amara stood in between Allison and Scott in the animal clinic while Deaton talks to Argent over the phone, "Did you have any trouble with Ikeda?" Argent asked. "Only minor. The white wolf was exactly where you said it would be. But we have two problems, now. First the lichen is not a cure- it'll wear off in a matter of days." Deaton explained.

"But, while it does work, the Oni won't go after Stiles, right?"

"I hope. Eichen House has an unusual history. It might not be all that safe for the Oni there, as well. I checked with your contacts in Japan. The Yakuza boss you saw killed by the Oni never found the scroll." Deaton said making them look at him confused. "What scroll?" Amara asked and Deaton looked up at her, "A Shugendo scroll. The Shugendo scroll were the ascetic mystics of Japan."

"The scroll had information on how to exorcise a Nogitsune."

"So we need to find that scroll?" Scott asked and Deaton nodded. "Exactly. And, I did get a name of the man who last purchased it- Kincaid." Deaton said. "He was with Katashi. He's the guy who met with Amara to buy the gun." Allison said and Amara nodded, "Big ass dude, also a Werewolf." She said.

"Sounds like Katashi wanted the scroll for himself."

"But Stilinski already told me nothing like it was found among his things... And a paranoid like Katashi would keep it close. Probably on him at all times."

"What does a Shugendo scroll look like?" Allison asked and Deaton got up and pulled out something that looked like a scroll you'd see in a medieval movie. "Something like this." He said handing the scroll to Allison, "Do they come in different sizes?" She asked. "Any size."

"Then I think I know where it might be."

"My father said all of the Katashi is being moved to a federal lockup by armored car tonight- probably within the next few hours." Allison explained to Scott and the twins as they walked over to Amara and Lydia in Argent's office. "We're going to rob an armored car?" Ethan asked in shock. "Well..." Amara trailed off, glancing over at Lydia, "We're going to try." Lydia said.

"This is a really bad plan." Scott said after they went over the plan. "It's not that bad..." Lydia trailed off making them all raise their eyebrows at her, "It's not that good!" Ethan said making her sigh. "None of us knows the route they're going to take. If Allison can get one of her dad's GPS trackers on the armored car, then we can follow it. So, when it gets here-" Amara explained and Aiden cut her off, "We attack em?"

"No. Your bikes will be in the middle of the road, looking like you guys got into an accident. And, when the driver gets out to help-" Lydia explained and Aiden cut her off, "We attack em." He said. "No!" All the girls said at the same time, "You'll distract him, and Scott will break open the back door."

"...I hope."

"And you'll get Katashi's finger." Lydia said making Ethan's eyes widen, "It's not his actual finger, is it?" He asked and Lydia scoffed. "You are so out of our league." She said and Amara nodded in agreement.

"Why aren't we just going to Stilinski or Makena for help?" Ethan asked and Amara nodded slightly, "That's a great idea. Let's get my mom and Stilinski to tamper with federal evidence when theres a douche bad FBI Agent already breathing down Stilinski's neck." Amara said sarcastically making the twins ground slightly.

"Don't gotta be min about it." He said. "Guys, this is going to work. We can do this. We're losing Stiles... My dad is in jail for murder... We need to do this." Allison said.

"You're up." Allison said and Kira nodded and ran over to the armored. When she got over there she placed the GPS tracker and looked back at them smiling but then a door to the building opened making her hide. Parrish walked over to the passenger side and opened the door only to pull his gun out quickly making Amara, Scott and Allison watch in confusion as he walked around the car.

He stood in front if the back doors, looking around until suddenly the back doors and someone jumped out and grabbed Parrish, slamming his head into the car. "Who the hell is that?" Scott asked with wide eyes and Amara sighed.

"Kincaid."

Kincaid pulled the silver finger prosthetic out as Scott, Allison and Amara walked up to him, "We need that finger." Scott said making Kincaid raise his eyebrows looking over at them. "Why should I give it to you?" He asked. "There's a briefcase in there with one hundred and fifty thousand in it." Allison said, her crossbow trained on him as he chuckled, "The scroll inside this prosthetic finger is worth three million." He said, pocketing it.

"Give me the finger." Scott said making Amara pursed her lips, raising her eyebrows at Scott who sighed, "...You know what I mean." He said. Suddenly Kira jumped onto Kincaid's, but didn't even phase him as he just grabbed her off him and through her to the side. "I guess negotiations are over." He said, flashing his blue eyes and canines and letting out a loud growl.

Kira went to attack him but he grabbed her throat making her groan before throwing her aside again. He swiped at Allison making her fall into the brick wall. "Alright, that was my girlfriend. Now I'm mad." Amara mumbled as she walked up and he swung at her but she ducked making him miss.

He swung again but she grabbed his arm and smirked before spinning around, twisting his arm around his back, until she heard a pop making him groan when his shoulder dislocated. She let his arm go before kicking him making him stumbled forward before turning around, popping his shoulder back into place.

He swiped ather and she grabbed his arm but he quickly moved his arm around to where he now was now holding her arm before grabbing her other arm. She tried to fight against him as he lifted her up a bit before slamming her into the ground making her groan as he stepped over her.

Scott ran up and threw a few punches at Kincaid but he barely even flinched. He grabbed Scotts arms, growling at him before head butting him making Scott stumble back, he punched Scott to the ground then kicked him making Scott breath out in pain as Kincaid crouched down next to him. "You have the eyes of an Alpha... but where's the strength?" He asked as Lydia ran over to Allison and Kira helped Amara up.

"Up here." Ethan said making him turn to see the twins on the stairs. The twins jumped down to attack, apparently Kincaid didn't except to fight two ex-alpha twins, cause they were definitely getting more punches in then he was.

"Ethan, Aiden, stop!" Scott yelled making the twins freeze. "You want him to come after us?" Aiden asked, "Scott, we've seen guys like this. Trust us- he's dangerous." Ethan said. "So are we. And he looks smart enough to remember that." Scott said and Amara stepped up and took the silver prosthetic out of Kincaid's pocket, she flipped him off before stepping back, handing it over to Scott.

He grabbed it and turned it upside down in his hand letting a tiny scroll fall out. "We're here to save a life... not end one." Scott said glancing down at Kincaid before dropping the prosthetic.

"There isn't much here, unfortunately..." Deaton said looking down at the scroll. "Does it say anything?" Scott asked. "My Japanese isn't great... But, it appears to say that one method of expelling a Nogitsune is to change the body of the host." Deaton said and Scott and Amara glanced at each other. "Change the body?" Scott asked.

"Which begs the question... How do we change Stiles' body?" Deaton asked and Amara closed her eyes and sighed defeatedly before looking back at them.

"...By turning him into a Werewolf."
