Chapter Ninety
⚡Riders On The Storm⚡

"Stiles! Keep going! I can see you, Stiles!" Sawyer yelled as the light faded. Soon enough the light was gone and all that was left behind was an empty tunnel. "Stiles?" Sawyer called out, a defeated look on her face, "Sawyer?" Lydia asked softly as she grabbed Sawyer's hand, making her look at them.

"Where is he? It was working. You saw him, right?" She asked and Malia shook her head, "We didn't see anyone." She said, making Sawyer sigh and glanced back at the tunnel. "He was here. Stiles was here. I saw him." She said as she just looked defeated.

Lydia sighed softly and gently squeezed Sawyer's hand before pulling her back into the bunker. Scott sighed softly and went to close the door but someone suddenly grabbed it making him spin around. "Liam!" Scott said in shock as Liam glanced at everyone, "There's something you need to see." He said.

"You're still here..."

"But everyone else is gone. All of them- they're all gone. Look, you have to come with me." Liam said panickedly and Scott raised his eyebrows, "What is it?" He asked. "I can't explain it. I have to show you." Liam said and Scott nodded before turning to the girls, "Uh... Alright. You guys stay here. Just in case." Scott said, making them raise their eyebrows at him.

"In case Stiles comes back?" Malia asked and he nodded, "If there's any hope, you need to keep trying." He said before walking out and shutting the door behind him.

Sawyer sighed and sat there for a moment as she petted Anakin before shaking her head. "This is unbelievable." She muttered before hooking Anakin's leash to his vest before standing up and walking to the door. "What are you doing?" Malia asked and Sawyer glanced back at them, "We're gonna go find Stiles." She said as she opened the door and Lydia raised her eyebrows.

"Scott told us to stay in case he shows up here." Lydia said and Sawyer shook her head, "Stiles isn't gonna come here. If he was, he would've, and he hasn't, so he's not. Hell, does he even know about this place, or at least where to find it. I know I saw him." Sawyer said and Malia nodded slightly, "And you're never wrong about these things." She said, making Sawyer squint and purse her lips.

"Well- I wouldn't say never..." She trailed off and Lydia raised her eyebrows, "But right now?" She asked and Sawyer took a deep breath. "Right now, I'm not wrong. My brother is out there, I can feel it. That empty feeling I've been having? It's gone." She said and Malia nodded, "Then what are we doing standing here?"

⚡

"This looks fresh." Sawyer said as she looked at tire marks on the ground outside the school, "It's from Stiles' Jeep. It must have just left." Malia said, making Lydia look at her confused.

"Without his keys?" Lydia asked and Sawyer shrugged, "Actually, I taught him how to get it started with a screwdriver and he has my toolbox." Sawyer said and Malia nodded in agreement. "Then he's here. We have to tell Scott." Lydia said and Malia raised her eyebrows slightly as Sawyer stood up.

"We should probably tell Scott about that, too." She said before walking off making them look and follow her. Next to the school sign was train tracks leading into the school. "We should probably follow them." Sawyer said before walking the direction the tracks led to.

The girls and Anakin followed the tracks until they led them to the library. They opened the doors and walked in before freezing slightly. The library had completely changed, there was no more book shelves or tables on the first floor. They were all replaced by benches with people sitting on them. "Why is there a train station in the middle of the library?" Malia asked and Lydia sighed, "There's also a train station in the Wild Hunt."

"Any chance they're connected?" Malia asked and Sawyer nodded, "I would say high. Like, one-hundred-and two-percent." Sawyer said as they started walking around. "If there's a train station, then there's probably a train." Malia said and Sawyer nodded, "And if there's a train... It's going to the Wild Hunt." She said.

"They're all gonna be taken." Malia said and Lydia looked at them, "They can't get on that train." She said. Malia glanced around for a moment before standing in the middle of the room, "Okay, listen up, everybody! We've all got to get out of here. We gotta go right now. It's bad! We have to go!" She yelled but no one moved or acknowledged her.

"Hello?" Lydia called out as Sawyer walked up to someone. She snapped her fingers in front of his face but he didn't move, making her purse her lips as she glanced down at Anakin. "Yeah, I don't think they can see or hear us." She said turning back to Malia and Lydia.

"How do we get them to leave if they can't hear us?" Malia asked and Lydia glanced around, "Uh... Maybe there's someone who can." She said, making them walk over to her. In front of them sat Peter Hale reading a newspaper.

"Peter!" Malia yelled while snapping her fingers in front of his face and Lydia sighed. "Malia." She said, making them look at her, "What?" They asked at the same time. "The only way we were able to break through the Hunt was through an emotional connection." She said, making her sigh softly, "Dang, wish I could help." She said, making them shoot her a look.

"I'm not saying it." She said and Sawyer shrugged, "Okay fine. I guess everyone dies then." She said before she. Anakin and Lydia turned to walk away until Malia growled lowly making them stop. They turned to look at her again as Malia sighed and turned to Peter. "Dad." Malia said and Peter didn't move, "Dad." She tried again but he still didn't move.

"Say it like you mean it." Sawyer said and Malia sighed before crouching down, "Dad... Please wake up." Malia said softly but Peter still didn't acknowledge her. "Dad." She said again and this time Peter slowly looked up before dropping the newspaper.

"Attention all passengers. The train will be arriving in twelve minutes."

"You here with us? Cause we need your help to stop the Ghost Riders." Sawyer said and Peter raided his eyebrows. "Me? You want me to stop them? You know how many there are?" Peter asked incredulously, "Yeah- a lot of them. But we can do it." Sawyer said as they started walking and he scoffed. "There are hundreds of waiting rooms in this train station, which apparently now also serves as a high school library. It's impossible."

"We can try." Malia said, making Peter look at her weird, "Where did you get this implausible optimism?" Peter asked and Malia raised her eyebrows. "Definitely not from my father..." She said and Lydia sighed, "We don't have time for this. We need someone to just hear us." Lydia said.

"I think we already did." Peter trailed off as they slowed to a stop when they saw a Ghost Rider in front of them. "Get behind us. They won't take a Banshee or a Clairvoyant." Lydia said, pulling Malia behind her and Sawyer while Sawyer pulled Anakin behind her, "No, but they'll definitely kill us- especially me." Sawyer said and Peter grabbed her arm, pulling her back as he walked in front of them.

The Ghost Rider cracked its whip at them making them back away before Peter tried to punch it but his hand went right through it. The girls turned around only to stop when they saw another Ghost Rider. He went to crack its whip at them making Malia quickly push Lydia and Sawyer out the way so then the whip hit her arm making her groan.

"Malia!" Peter yelled before he ran over to her. He quickly grabbed her before pushing her over to Sawyer, Anakin and Lydia. Peter growled slightly under his breath before turning and kicking a Ghost Rider in the chest, making it fall on the stairs. "He did it." Malia said as they watched in shock as Peter fought the Ghost Riders.

"Malia, go!" Peter yelled when one of the Ghost Riders pinned him to a pillar. Lydia and Sawyer instantly grabbed Malia and ran to the door. Sawyer, Anakin and Lydia ran out while Malia stayed back and let out a roar. "You go find Stiles, I'll go find Scott?" Lydia asked when they stopped running to catch their breath. "Yeah, yeah. You, stay away from any and every Ghost Rider." Sawyer said and Lydia nodded before quickly kissing her, "Go." She said before Sawyer and Anakin ran off.

Sawyer and Anakin ran down the hall before going to turn the corner, only to nearly run into Stiles. Both twins screamed for a moment before realizing who they almost ran into, making their eyes widen. "Sawyer!" / "Stiles!" They both yelled before quickly pulling each other into a hug.

Both twins sighed softly as they closed their eyes, hugging each other tightly. "I hated being an only child." Sawyer mumbled, making Stiles laugh softly before they pulled away. The moment they pulled back, Anakin nearly jumped on Stiles. "Hey, buddy." Stiles said as he crouched down to pet Anakin as Anakin pretty much climbed on top of him to lick his face.

"I missed you too buddy." He said, patting Anakin's side before standing up. Stiles and Sawyer looked at each other and Stiles was about to say something, but Sawyer's eyes widened. "Oh shit! There's probably something you should know." She said, making him furrow his brows, "What?" He asked.

Sawyer was about to say something, but before she could, there was the sound of a gun clicking. The twins looked over to see a Ghost Rider standing there, pointing his gun at them. "Crap..." The twins both said before the Ghost Rider shot the both of them, making them disappear in a cloud of green smoke.

As the smoke cleared, the Ghost Rider looked down at Anakin, who tilted his head slightly. The Ghost Rider and the dog stared at each other for a moment before Anakin turned around and quickly walked down the hall.

Sawyer groaned in pain as her back hit a row of lockers before she fell to the ground. She glanced around to see she was in the locker room, "Son of a bitch..." She mumbled before getting up and going to walk out.

Right as she walked up to the door, the door opened and a Ghost Rider walked in making her back up slightly down a row of lockers. "Again, seriously?" She asked in annoyance while the Ghost Rider pointed its gun at her head.

Before she could do anything a loud scream ran through the locker room and the Ghost Rider went flying back before falling to the ground. Sawyer's eyes widened as she looked over at the door to see Lydia run into the locker room.

"God, I love you so much..." Sawyer said before grabbing Lydia's hips and pulling her into a kiss. Lydia grabbed Sawyer's face while Sawyer pulled her closer. After a moment they pulled apart and leaned their forehead against each other. "I love you too." Lydia said, making Sawyer smile softly before kissing her again.

All of a sudden, someone ran into the locker room, making them jump slightly before looking over to find Stiles looking at them awkwardly. "Oh, sorry! I found Anakin!" He said, holding up Anakin's leash as Anakin walked past him, making Sawyer sigh softly. "Thank god. Now let's find Scott." She said, grabbing Anakin's leash while they nodded before running towards the door.

"Stiles..." They heard Claudia voice call out as they reached the door making them stop while Sawyer's eyes widened. "Stiles, is that you?" She said again, making Stiles glance around, "Mom?" He asked as he glanced around. "It's not her." Lydia said, making Stiles look at her, "I know who it is. I know her voice." Stiles said and Sawyer shook her head.

"I know it sounds like her, but it's not. That's what I wanted to tell you. It's the Wild Hunt. They're tricking you, they've tricked me and dad for the last three months. Stiles, I promise you. The Wild Hunt brought her back, but she's not real." Sawyer said, making him stop and turn to her with furrowed brows. "What do you mean to brought her back?" He asked and before Sawyer or Lydia could say anything someone else did.

"Stiles? Sawyer?" Claudia said, making them look over to see her walking down the hall, "I know what you've been through. I know how much you both love your father." Claudia said and then there was a flash of thunder and her appearance changed. Now she looked like a Ghost Rider.

"But I love him more. Even from the Hunt, you somehow wormed your way back into his memory." She said and Stiles nodded, "Yeah, worming is one of my skills." He said and Sawyer stepped forward, grabbing his arm. "That thing is conjured from dad's pain. If he remembers you, he can't believe in her." She said, making Stiles look at her.

"That's why you have to go." Claudia said and started walking forward. Sawyer quickly pushed Stiles behind her as Lydia stepped forward and was about to scream but suddenly Claudia's hand shot out and grabbed Lydia by the throat making her groan.

Sawyer's and Stiles' eyes widened as they ran forward and went to pull Lydia away when Claudia then grabbed Stiles by the throat as Sawyer pulled Lydia away. "You shouldn't treat your mother that way." Claudia said. "You're not my mother." Stiles said and Claudia pushed him up against the wall.

"He believes in me. Dreams- so hard to kill." Claudia said as Stiles struggled to breath, "But not impossible." Stilinski said as he turned the corner before Stilinski shot at Claudia but the bullets didn't affect her at all. "Noah. Your bullets can't hurt me." She said as Sawyer and Lydia stood up. "But we can." She said as Lydia walked up to her Stilinski, "Fire again." Lydia said as Sawyer's eyes clouded over.

Ghost Rider Claudia suddenly started to hear countless loud whispers, making her let go of Stiles as Lydia let out a loud scream and Stilinski pulled the trigger. The bullet hit her right as she erupted in green smoak while Stiles fell to the ground, making Anakin run over to him.

All of the sudden the whole building started shaking, making Sawyer grab onto Lydia, pulling her closer while Stiles held onto Anakin. Eventually it stopped and they all looked at each other while Sawyer looked at them. "I'm guessing that means it's over?" She said in a slight questioning tone while Lydia sighed softly and rested her head on Sawyer's chest.

⚡

"Have a great summer, everyone." The teacher said as the final bell rang making Stiles frown, "No..." He said while Sawyer turned around to look at him, Scott, Lydia and Malia and Anakin stood up. "To the seniors, I'll see you at graduation." The teacher said and Stiles' frown deepened while Sawyer excitedly held out her hand, making Anakin lift his paw up before she shook it.

"No, no, no, no... That's it? What?" Stiles asked making Sawyer chuckle while Scott smiled at them, "Last day ever!" He said and Stiles pouted. "Well, it just feels so anti-climactic." Stiles said and Lydia raised her eyebrows, "Well, there's the whole graduation thing." Lydia said and Malia nodded.

"I've gotta go to summer school, or I can't do the whole graduation thing." She said and Sawyer smiled and nodded. "Let's go." She said and they all got up and grabbed their stuff besides Stiles. "No. Come on, wait! Guys? This can't be it." Stiles said and then the lights shut off making him pout.

"I can't believe we're not in high school anymore. Kind of feels like nothing's really changed." Scott said as he, Stiles and Sawyer pulled their stuff out of their lockers. "I'd say a lot has changed." Sawyer said as she looked over at Lydia as she closed her locker.

Lydia looked over at them, her eyes connected with Sawyer's before smiling softly.

⚡

"Okay! So, Liam, since you're the new Alpha..." Stiles said as he walked around the jeep where Liam, Mason, Sawyer, Anakin and Scott stood, "I'm not an Alpha." Liam corrected. "Right. But, you know, Alpha-in-training..." Stiles said and Liam pursed his lips, "Well, I'd have to kill an Alpha." He said, making Stiles squint at him.

"Liam! Since you're taking over, the most important thing you can remember is that Mason is always gonna be the one who's there to save your ass all the time and if Mason had a sister, she would help." Stiles said, making Mason smile while Scott frowned slightly and Sawyer laughed, "Well, not all the time." He said and Stiles shrugged slightly.

"Most of the time, though. Which is why... I think you're gonna need this." Stiles said before pulling out his baseball bat and holding it out to Mason, "Uh, I don't play baseball." Mason said and Stiles nodded. "Right, neither do I. It's... It's not the point." He said and Mason took the bat, "Okay, thanks." He said before him and Liam started to walk away, Mason patting the top of Anakin's head in the process.

"Love you guys!" Stiles called out before sighing softly and turning to Scott and
Sawyer, "Right. I leave you with this. You know... hurt her, and I'll kill you." Stiles said, holding a roll of duct tape to Scott. "You sure you won't need it?" Scott asked and Stiles nodded, "It's okay. Sawyer is gonna drive me down to D.C." Stiles said and Sawyer nodded slightly before humming and raising her eyebrows.

"Did you know Lydia's starting at MIT as a junior?" She asked and Scott sighed, "I... She's smart... Where are you going again?" Scott asked and Sawyer shrugged. "I'm gonna work at the shop during summer and figure out what I wanna do in the process." Sawyer said before pointing at Scott.

"But the important question is, how did you get into UC-Davis?" She asked and Scott raised his eyebrows, "How did Stiles get into George Washington?" He asked and Stiles shrugged slightly. "Uh, your dad. The, uh, big FBI pops made a call to the little pre-FBI program." He said and Scott and Sawyer smiled.

"Pre-FBI? I guess we're not the same kids running around the woods, looking for a body." Scott said and Stiles nodded slightly, "No, we're not." He said before pulling out his keys. "You know, you can keep the Jeep." Scott said and Stiles shook his head, "No. I... I want you to have it." He said before handing Scott the keys.

"Oh, Stiles...? These aren't the keys to the Jeep." Scott said and Stiles nodded slightly, "Well, that one is to your house, another to your room. Keys to Sawyer's room and car." He said, making Sawyer frown slightly. "Uh, it's the master key to the school, animal clinic... a key to the Sheriff's station... I just figured you should have all the copies I secretly made, so... Yeah." He said, making Scott and Sawyer look at each other and chuckle as Stiles pulled out the actual keys to the jeep before looking out to the crowd.

"They still need us." He said, making them glance back and nod, "They'll always need us." Scott said. "And, you know, I... I need you. You know that." Stiles said and Scott smiled and nodded, "I need you, too." He said. "And we both need you." Stiles said, looking over at Sawyer, who smiled, "You guys drive me insane." She said, making them give her a look.

"Love you both." She said and they chuckled and shook their heads. "I'm gonna miss you both." Stiles said before taking a deep breath, "But, no really. I need you, though. Uh... I lost my license in the Hunt, so you have to drive." He said, making Sawyer laugh. "Our dad is the Sheriff. I'm sure he'll let it slide." Sawyer said.

Sawyer looked off to the side before noticing Lydia leaning against her car waiting for Sawyer. "Go, but quick." Stiles said, making Sawyer look at them again, "Hug us first." Stiles said, making Sawyer laugh before the three of them pulled each other into a group hug. "It's gonna feel really weird not seeing everyone every day, especially you guys." Sawyer said and they nodded before they pulled away.

They smiled at each other and Sawyer squeezed their shoulders before walking away. Lydia looked up and smiled as Sawyer walked over to her. "Hey." Sawyer said before wrapping her arm around Lydia's waist and pulling her into a kiss.
