--MC POV--
"So how are we going to do this" I asked to Ann.
"Now that the poison is weakening the Nogitsune, it is the best time to act" she replied.
"So I just need to give him the bite and he will just go back to being Styles. Are we sure this isn't going to just make him stronger?" asked Derek, who had reached us.
"That is not a problem, as I have already said being a werewolf exclude being a kitsune. The only problem is that he could die, since while the fox is weakened, this doesn't mean that it won't try to rebel" she said.
All of us looked at Stiles, who was lying on the floor and we knew there weren't many options.
Erika was still healing from the injury she received earlier, but this didn't stop her from holding with love the same hands that stabbed her earlier.
"Would he even want to be a werewolf" said Scott, but it sounded more like a question he was asking to himself.
"It is certainly a better option than being a doll in the hands of a dark spirit" I said and looked at Derek, who nodded and approached Stiles. He took the hand of the latter and gave it a strong bite, with his eyes burning of a strong crimson colour.
We looked at the unmoving teen on the floor, till at some point black blood started to come out of his mouth and ears.
"He is resisting the bite" commented Ann with a frown.
"No! No! Stiles" screamed Erika as she threw herself on him again.
"I can try to enter his mind and help, but I need someone who can help me bring back Stiles" proposed Ann.
"I'll come" replied Erika.
"Please let me do this" she added looking at Scott, who nodded.
Ann didn't waste time and placed her hands on both Stiles' and the Erika's head.
--Ann Evans POV--
I entered many minds in my life, but this thing is a first.
I though as I saw the black liquid that slowly filled the floor of the mental hospital, that I recognized as Eichen House.
I had been there once when I wanted to reflect on my past, so I could recognize it.
Having this said, I'm sure that Stiles never entered inside this place, so it must be a memory of the Nogitsune.
The black liquid must be the poison of the bite.
Suddenly I heard some steps, which thanks to the flooded floor were loud
I looked back and there stood a man covered in bends.
It was the first time I saw it, but thanks to my mother tale, I knew exactly who this appearance belonged to.
"Look clearly, this was the state of your father body when he died. He was burned and since they had sold all the morphine he died of a painful death. His screams could be heard trough the entirety of Eichen House" he murmured-
I could now hear the screams of a man echoing trough the hallway.
It was the first time I heard my father voice, but all I could hear was the pain he must have felt.
The Nogitsune came near and I could now smell the burnt odour that came from his body, strong enough to cover the putrid smell of the poison on the floor.
"Look at what they have done, you never had a father because of what they did. Burn the whole world and take revenge!" he said.
Before he could make another step, I grabbed him from the throat.
"You are just ruining the image I have of him" I said with anger in my voice.
"You used him for your plans and used him for you own agenda. Revenge is the oldest excuse used by everyone to cause more pain. I won't fall for your pathetic tricks" as I strengthened the force in my arm he just smiled at me.
"You'll fall too one day. That's your fate, you'll become like me, the same creature that disgust you" he said before disappearing.
--Erika POV--
School.
The same corridor thar I walked every day, but this time it were empty.
Various doors were open and when I walked past them, I could see many scenes of Stiles past.
Him being ignored by Lydia, him being left behind while Scott went after Allison and also the memory of the police officers that died because of the bomb he made.
In the last room I could hear the scream of a woman.
"He wants to kill me, he is a monster!" when I entered I recognized the woman thanks the photos I saw in Stiles' house.
It was his mother.
A young Stiles was curled up in the corner taking silently all the insults the woman was saying.
"Stiles!" I shouted, but I didn't get a reply.
A black liquid was rising from the floor and in a few second it would block Stiles from breathing, since he was curled up.
I got near him, raised him from the floor and looked in his eyes.
"I'm Erika, Stiles" I said and this time he looked at me.
"I'm a killer Erika, I killed all those people. My mother was right" he murmured.
"You are the most gentle person I know. You are there when Scott needs it and always did your best to help others. You were the first person, who treated me well, when everyone just ignored me or laughed of me. I need you, Stiles. You can't leave me. All of us want you back and no one blames you for what happened." I said, and Stiles, who was now in his grown up appearance, kept looking into my eyes.
"I love you" I told him.
"Me too" he replied, before kissing me.
--MC POV--
Suddenly Ann and Erika opened their eyes and looked back at Stiles, who was still on the floor.
"Did it work?" asked Scott and Ann looked at Erika for an answer.
"It did, why is he still unconscious?" she replied.
Fortunately a cough soon came from Stiles as he tried to spit the black blood in his mouth, but soon I realized it wasn't Stiles.
I understood it from his face void of any emotion.
He then took out two black daggers from his sleeves and looked at all of us.
"Those are…" tried to say Ann, before Stiles stabbed himself and flies came out of his mouth.
Hundreds of flies tried to escape and while we killed all those we could, tens of them still got out.
"What did he do?" I asked Ann.
"Those were my mother tails, he must have used their power to boost himself and run away" replied Ann.
"Stiles" murmured Erika as she approached her boyfriend, who was painting and looking down at the floor.
None of use let our guards down, we weren't going to fall for the same trick twice.
"It's me. I'm myself." He said as he raised his face, and his eyes were glowing of yellow.
There was no doubt now, we succeeded, now that he is a werewolf he can't be a kitsune.
What followed was Erika, Scott and the Sheriff, who had just arrived hugging the hell out of Stiles.
I don't know what will happen with those flies going around, but at least now we are all together and can fight the enemy directly.
Whatever the Nogitsune gained, he now lost its biggest advantage of possessing Stiles body and without it no one will protect him anymore.
--Noshiko POV-- (Kira and Ann mother)
I had just noticed that the two tails I left to my husband had been taken by the Nogitsune and I need to hide the last one.
In front of me stood the symbol I had left sixty years ago.
A symbol similar to a 5, which means self.
I put it on this wall to say that when Rhis died he was himself and behind it lay the body of the man I once loved.
I placed my hands on the wall and looked at it.
"Our daughter has become a beautiful woman, you know?" I felt a tear drop from my cheek, but this sentimental moment was broken when a hand came out of the wall.
"I already got the chance to meet her" This voice!
The Nogitsune broke the wall, while holding me.
"You have become weak after breaking all those tails, haven't you Noshiko?" he said.
"You!" I shouted.
"Hope you don't mind if I got back to this body. It knew me well" he stated.
I could see his flesh reform behind the bends.
"This would have been impossible without the energy of your tails, thanks a lot Noshiko. I hope you don't mind if I take the last one" after saying this he took the kaiken from my jacket.
My last tail was in his hands.
"Don't worry I won't kill you, you are not a problem anymore after all, I'll let you see once again all the ones you care for being killed by my hands, and then I'll devour all your desperation" he said and then knocked me out.
