Chapter Text

"Give me the recording!" Valak shouted.

Lydia placed the voice recorder on the slate and pushed it into Valaks cell, suddenly, the sound of insects filled the air and the Dread Doctors turned the corner of the hallway, Stiles and Lydia turned towards them, there was no doorway to get out, you'd have to get passed the Dread Doctors if you wanted to get to an exit.

"We are really screwed" Stiles muttered.

Lydia nods before looking over her shoulder slightly at Valak, he was pressed against the back of his cell looking terrified.

The Dread Doctors were only 5-8 metres in front of them now, Stiles started to move over to the wall on the side and press himself against it hard, Lydia hesitated but soon did the same only on the other side, the Doctors must only be there for Valak, so they should just walk past them.. but they didn't.

Sure the Dread Doctors went into Valaks cell and extracted his third eye, but as they came out they paused, as one they all tilted their heads to the side before turning to Stiles. Said boy took in a deep shuddering breath, Lydia made a small noise of protest but quickly quietened as one of the Doctors looked at her.

All three of the Dread Doctors made their way towards Stiles and made a tight circle around him, Stiles' breath was becoming quick and uneven, this amplified as the 'leader' stepped even closer to him, the cold metal mask almost in contact with Stiles' skin as the Doctor leaned in. Stiles turned his head to the side as to try and avoid the 'thing' leaning in.

The insect noise stopped as the Doctor tilted it's head towards Stiles'. A grating noise replaced the previous one and Stiles realised the thing was speaking. 

"Hmmmmm" it grated "you're. the. one. the. new. Chimera" the insect noise broke out again before the Doctor continued "was. sent. to. kill. by. young. Raeken"

Stiles shivered before he whispered "what?"

The Doctor jerked its head up before it grabbed Stiles' chin and smashed his face against the wall, hard. Stiles grunted and brought up his hand to grab the Doctors wrist, it was futile, the Doctors hand wouldn't move.

One of the other Doctors turned to Lydia and grabbed her wrist before shoving her in the direction in which they came.

Its voice spoke in the same way as the one that was keeping Stiles against the wall,

"Go. girl. we. do. not. need. you"

Lydia protested but it only resulted in the Doctor squeezing Stiles' jaw tighter, Lydia swallowed before she spoke again,

"What are you going to do?"

Stiles gasped slightly as the grip on his face tightened even more, Lydia took the hint and walked backwards to the exit slowly, finally Lydia turned the corner and disappeared from sight and Stiles had all three of the Dread Doctors concentrated on him again.

"What. Do you. Want?" Stiles grit out.

The Dread Doctors didn't answer, they flickered as if they were a hologram and for a second Stiles thought that they would disappear without him but the thought soon diminished as he felt himself flicker too, then again, how the Dread Doctors were doing that Stiles had no idea and didn't really think about it as the world darkened then went completely black.

Scott was laying on the ground with Kira as Lydia sprinted out of Eichen House, Scott lifted Kira off him and stood up to meet the frantic girl, as she drew closer, Scott noticed that Stiles wasn't with her.

"Scott!" Lydia gasped "Doctors-Stiles-took-Dread-him" Lydia couldn't even say a sentence, her words were jumbled up and all over the place.

"Lydia" Scott layed a hand on her shoulder "calm down, what happened?"

Lydia gasped in a deep breath and started over.

"The-the Dread Doctors, they uh- cornered us and-and-"  

Kira was standing now and walked over to Lydia as well, she took the banshees hands in her own,

"And what Lydia? What did they do?"

Scott was staring at the entrance of Eichen House, they knew the answer, the reason Stiles hadn't come out with Lydia,  there was only really one explanation.

"They-they took S-Stiles" her shoulders sagged "they took Stiles" she whispered.
