"It's almost like this thing doesn't want to be found," Stiles said as he, Ava and Lydia walked around the preserve, for the hundredth time, looking for the Nemeton.
"Maybe it knows we're late for class...Because we've been here twice." Ava said pointing to the tree marking. "And I can smell our scents."
"Crap."
"Can we talk to Jordan now? I hate lying to him." Ava said making Stiles turn to them.
"Hang on. If the Nemeton is covered in bodies, shouldn't you be able to find them?" Stiles asked looking at Lydia and making her raise her eyebrows.
"Me?" Lydia asked making him nod.
"Yes, you. That's what you do. You're the Banshee, you find the bodies." Stiles said making Lydia roll her eyes and turn to Ava who shrugged in response.
"Well, the Banshee's having an off day, so how about we talk to Parrish?" Lydia asked making him sigh.
"We can't." He said making Ava frown.
"Why not?" She asked and he hesitated which didn't go unnoticed by her.
"Because of one of the bodies...One of them... One of them could be..." He trailed off making her raise her eyebrows.
"Could be what?" Ava asked.
"One of them could be a clue..." He said and Ava groaned in annoyance.
"I'm leaving now, Stiles. I'm going to talk to Jordan and tell him he's the one taking the bodies. It's always better when they know." She said making Stiles sigh.
"Well then, he should know he owes me a Jeep!" Stiles said.
🔥🔥
"So, if this place is so important, how come you didn't want to show it to me before?" Jordan asked as he watched Ava stare out the window as he drove near the woods.
"Well, the problem is it's not easy to find..." She said turning to him and making him raise his eyebrows.
"Should we put it in the GPS?" Jordan said making Ava chuckle and shake her head.
"Not exactly. Unless the GPS has a supernatural mode to it." Ava said making Jordan chuckle.
"So, how are we going to find it? Because I don't remember ever being anywhere near a giant tree stump." He said as he turned to her.
"I think you're already starting to remember." She said making him look at her with a confused expression.
"How do you know that?" He asked.
"You just took a right turn." She said making him furrow his eyebrows and look in the rearview mirror.
Ava and Jordan were now looking around the preserve on foot, not realising Ava's phone was ringing in the car. "Anything look familiar?" Ava asked and he sighed, shaking his head.
"Nothing. I'm trying, but it all looks like woods to me." Jordan said and Ava tilted her head slightly thinking of something.
"Maybe you're thinking about it too much. Maybe it's something you need to feel." Ava suggested and Jordan raised an eyebrow.
"How do I do that?" He asked as he glanced around. Ava smirked thinking of something. She threw a punch towards Jordan who dodged quickly and looked at her shocked. "What was that for?" He asked as she smirked again.
"To get you to stop thinking." She said pulling her arm back before throwing some more punches.
"Oh, is this supposed to motivate me?" He asked while she smiled.
"No. It's supposed to get you to stop..." Ava said throwing another punch. "...thinking!" Ava kicked his side making him groan and her chuckle before he shook his head chuckling. He smirked at her raising his arm and she smiled trying to kick him again but he ducked making her kick scrap his hair. She threw another punch making him step back and chuckle noticing her smile. Punch after punch and kick which he dodged or blocked. She threw another punch and he caught her wrist and smiled before throwing one with the other hand and he caught that one too. "I fell for it again." She said pouting making him chuckle.
"Yes, you did," Jordan said before gaining some confidence. Jordan pulled Ava move into him and dipped down slightly kissing her and dropping her wrist. Ava's arm moved around his neck and his hands around Ava's waist. Ava pulled slightly on Jordan's hair making him groan slightly. Ava pulled back slightly noticing Jordan's his firey orange iris' but not noticing hers were glowing as well.

"I need to call it in. No, I need to turn myself in." Jordan said as they were walking back to the car and Ava grabbed his arm.
"I don't think that's such a good idea," Ava said making him sigh.
"You just told me I'm the one taking the bodies. I've attacked other law enforcement officers. That's a criminal offence. I shouldn't even be near you." He said making Ava scoff and stop walking.
"I'm not afraid of you," Ava said confidently and Jordan shook his head.
"I'm afraid of me." He said and she sighed.
"Whatever's happening seems to only happen when there's a body. Other than that you're still a pretty great guy. And you're a pretty good deputy." She said.
"I'm a very good deputy. And I'd like to stay that way. Flipping over Jeeps and attacking colleagues doesn't exactly fit with "protect and serve." I'm covering up the bodies of murdered teenagers." Jordan said and Ava sighed.
"You're not covering them up..." Ava said before she realised something. "Actually, maybe you are." She whispered slightly making him raise an eyebrow.
"What?" Jordan asked.
"It's the same thing we asked Stilinski to do with Tracy. You're not covering up bodies. You're covering up the supernatural." She explained and she shrugged.
"What's the difference?" He asked.
"Maybe you're keeping the secret safe. Maybe that's part of what you do." Ava suggested and he raised his eyebrows again.
"I'm a deputy!" He said and she shrugged.
"You're not just a deputy. And you aren't one of the bad guys." Ava said and Jordan sighed.
"Ava, you just showed me that my dream was real. But you haven't heard the rest of it. Every time I carry a body to the Nemeton, I put it down and add to the ones that are already there." Jordan said and Ava walked up to him slowly.
"How many?" She asked and Jodan sighed.
"Hundreds, Ava. Hundreds of them."
🔥🔥
"Hey...What the hell does he think he's doing?" Stilinski asked walking up to the pacing teen.
"Protecting us," Ava said making Stilinski look at her confused.
"From who?" Stilinski asked and Ava sighed.
"Himself. Which I think is a crap idea." Ava said shouting the last part.
Stilinski sighed before walking to the holding cell with Ava following. They saw Jordan sitting in the cell and Stilinski walked over to swipe his car when Jordan shot up. "No! I get why you sat me at a desk for six months now." He said making Stilinski turn to him as Jordan walked up to the bars.
"Jordan, we can't keep you in here. I don't like it." Ava said and Jordan sighed as he grabbed her hands.
"There's another body, right?" He asked turning to Stilinski.
"Two, actually," Stilinski said. Ava looked between Stilinski and Jordan, knowing what Jordan was going to do next.
"I'm the one taking them," Jordan said making Stilinski eyes widen. "I don't know why, and I don't remember doing it. But if it ras me at the morgue, then I'm dangerous. Okay? You can't let me out, Sheriff. You can't."
Ava watched as Stilinski easily pocketed the card before walking away.
