Lydia is dreaming. She's in the shower and hears someone say her name. She turns off the water. When she pulls back the shower curtain, we see the BHHS lacrosse field. The crowd in the stands is cheering for her. Some of them hold signs that say "We Love You Lydia." Lydia walks out onto the field and she is wearing her dress from Formality. While most of the crowd is cheering wildly, one girl seems terrified. Peter Hale walks out onto the field and attacks Lydia, knocking her to the ground and pulling himself on top of her.
She wakes up with her bed full of dirt. Hallucination Peter Hale is now reclining in bed next to her. He explains that he can't leave her alone yet and is not yet real. He then explains that his plan is set for the full moon in March, also known as the "Worm Moon," called this because it is the last moon of winter and the worms literally crawl out of the earth as it thaws. The next full moon is on her birthday and is the night Peter's plan will come to fruition. He then shows her three visions of her birthday party. One in which everyone is dancing and having a good time followed by one where everyone is blood spattered and dead. The final vision of the party has all the guests standing still, just staring at her. The implication being that if she doesn't follow his plan, everyone will die. He then pontificates about Lydia's immunity and how her friends haven't let her in on the supernatural secrets. When she asks what it is she is immune to, he shows her a vision of himself as The Alpha Werewolf busting through her kitchen window,
Argent Home
Chris took Victoria home immediately and was currently with her in the garage cleaning her wound, "It's not that deep, okay?" Chris asked trying to assure her and himself as he dabbed a napkin soaked in rubbing alcohol on the wound when he saw Gerard by the stairs
"It's all right. I'll clean it myself." Victoria said taking the napkin, causing Chris to nod and walk over to his father
"It's not that bad. We don't know. We can't know. Not for sure." Chris said looking back to Victoria
"It's a bite from an Alpha." Gerard replied
"She's my wife. Allison's mother." Chris said
"And I'm the cold-hearted patriarch holding his family to its commitments. We all have our roles. Just don't expect me to play poisoned king to your Hamlet of a son. Not with a full moon coming." Gerard grunted
"What about Allison? How am I supposed to get her through this? We just buried Kate." Chris said
"Then tell me, how long is long enough? When exactly do you think, Allison will be emotionally prepared enough to handle the death of her mother?" Gerard asked as Chris looked at his wife sadly
"She can't lose her too."
"Ah, you're getting your tenses mixed up." Gerard said causing Chris to look at him, him Gerard smirked, "Your wife is already dead, and that thing over there is just a cocoon waiting to hatch."
Chris frowned as the two looked to Victoria
Unknown to the 3 however, Naruto was in the house, his eyes glowing as he stood at the door leading to the garage ready to kill all 3, but he saw Allison's photo and when they opened the door Naruto was nowhere to be found
30 Minutes Later
Allison drove Matt to his house, and parked her car as she checked her phone and frowned upon seeing no text from her, when Matt spoke, "So, um, about that incredibly bad idea I had."
"You mean the kiss?" Allison asked looking at him
"Yeah, that's the one." Matt nodded
"Don't worry about it." Allison said trying to be nice
"For real?" Matt asked skeptical
"Definitely." Allison nodded
"So what's going on with you and Nate? Are you guys still together or what?" Matt asked
"Not really." Allison lied causing Matt to laugh
"Not really. I God, I hate not reallys. You never know what to do with. Not really."
"Would you understand if I said, it was complicated?" Allison asked
"Not really." Matt said causing Allison to smirk, "But I'll try."
Matt got out the car and Allison looked to her window, and breathed on it and saw no message from Naruto causing her to sigh before she wiped the fog off and noted that Matt left his bag, which she grabbed but she grabbed the camera strap causing the bag to fall before the noted it on, amd began to cycle through the pictures, she smiled seeing the pictures of the Lacrosse team but frowned when she saw a picture If her smiling in class, then another of her and Lydia talking, one of her walking down the stairs, one of her sitting behind the school by herself taken from behind trees, about 10 of them of her behind the school, another of her through her bedroom window, one of her and Naruto on the roof of her house kissing, a few of her sitting in her room reading and another of her asleep in bed,
A knock on the door caused her to jump, and she looked up to see Matt, before he tried to open the door but it was locked causing him to scoff and look at her, "Open the window."
Allison rolled down her window as Matt looked in, "Forgot my bag." He said
"Yeah, yeah." Allison nodded handing him his bag and camera
"Some good pictures in there, don't you think?" Matt asked
"Yeah, the lacrosse ones are amazing. You're really talented. I was really impressed." Allison nodded uncomfortable as Matt gazed at her before they jumped when there was a knock on Allison's window and looked to see Naruto, causing Allison to smile and Matt to glare
"Hey, Stiles and Erica took my car, could you give me a ride?" Naruto asked
"Sure." Allison nodded
Naruto smiled and walked around as Matt watched him, backing up, as Naruto ignored him completely and got into the car before Allison drove off
"You okay?" Naruto asked looking in the rearview mirror to see Matt in the street watching the car
"Nothing I can't handle." Allison said causing Naruto to nod, "What happened tonight?"
"Well it was eventful. After I left you, I gave Issac the ketamine, and exited the club from the back away from where Derek and your dad were fighting, and was hit by your mother, then shot in the chest and the head. Repeatedly."
Immediately Allison pulled over, "What?" She asked looking at him
"She took me into an empty warehouse and used a vaporizer with empty."
"She poisoned the air."
"And stabbed me, when she saw it wasn't keeping me down like she planned. She ran a wooden stake through my heart, so that was fun." Naruto said causing Allison looked upset before Naruto took her by the hand, "It's okay."
"Okay?! My mom tried to kill you. Why didn't you-"
"Because she is your mom. I promised you that I wouldn't ever hurt you, that includes emotionally. I attack and possibly kill your mom, then what?" Naruto asked causing Allison to frown, "Stiles and Derek ran her off, I don't know how since I was dead but I'm still here."
Naruto grabbed her hand and kissed it, "I don't get it, how could you not be upset?" She asked
"I am furious. I came to find you, because your presence calms me. I was literally outside the garage door about to kill your parents and your grandfather."
"What stopped you?' Allison asked
"A picture of you stopped me, like always when I'm about to do something I can't come back from." Naruto smiled
Morning, With Derek
Derek opened his big trunk of torture and began removing the chains and other devices he'll use to lock up his pack during the full moon. Isaac noticed the triple spiral on the inside lid of the trunk and rubbed it, "What is that?"
"It's a triskele." Boyd said causing everyone to look at him, "Spirals mean different things. Past, present, and future. Mother, father, child."
"You know what it means to me?" Derek asked
"Alpha, beta, omega?" Boyd asked
"That's right." Derek nodded impressed as he stood up, "It's a spiral. Reminds us that we can all rise to one or fall to another. Betas can become alphas, but alphas can also fall to betas or even omegas."
"Like Nathan?" Issac asked
"He's different."
"How?" Isaac asked
"Give you a history lesson. The first humanoid supernatural being to walk the Earth, was a vampire by the name of Naruto Uzumaki. The only other beings around like him where monstrous beasts that had multiple tails. These beasts we're sealed within children, and he was one of them. He grew up hated because of this, and not wanting anyone to go through that again and to bring humans together in a peaceful alliance, he began to steal the beasts and seal them within himself. Humans didn't like that so they banded together to kill him, and killed his wife in the crossfire, Naruto slaughtered his way through the humans, who he tried to bring peace to before his ancestor appeared and destroyed his body.
The amount of energy within his body exploded and wrapped around the world affecting people, giving birth to werewolves, and countless other beings. He would become known as The Source. Our God."
"Nice story and all, but what does this have to do with Nathan?" Issac asked
"Naruto Uzumaki according to some possessed bright blond hair the color of the sun, and eyes as blue as the oceans, while possessing three whisker birthmarks on each of his cheeks. Ring any bells?"
"Wait your saying that Nate is, '
"Naruto Uzumaki." Derek nodded at Erica, before he looked to Issac, "Nate is with us, the reason he isn't here is because he's looking for Jackson, and has better control of himself."
With Allison
Allison was in her room, writing in her diary, when an excited Lydia walked up, "Clear your schedule. This could take a while."
Allison smiled and stood up as Lydia walked to the bed, "How many outfits do you plan on wearing tonight?" She asked as Lydia took out multiple dresses and out them on the bed
"It's my birthday party. I'm thinking host dress, evening dress, then, mm, after-hours casual."
"I noticed that you didn't send out any invites." Allison said
"It's the biggest party of the year, Allison. Everyone knows." Lydia said
"I was wondering if maybe this year things, you know, might be different." Allison replied seeing as Lydia hasn't really been all the way there lately
"Why would anything be different?" Lydia asked
"Just 'cause things have been off lately.
Things and people. Like Jackson." Allison said causing Lydia to look at her
"What do you care about Jackson?" Lydia asked defensively
"I don't, just that he's been a jerk to you. Do you know if he's coming tonight?"
"Everyone's coming." Lydia said causing Allison to sigh as her friend picked up another dress, "This one's American rag. Mm, I love it.
For me, not you."
Allison watched her as Lydia handed her a frees, as Victoria sweaty, and pale entered the room, "This one's material girl. It's for you. Ms. Argent. What do you think of this one?" Lydia asked holding a blue dress
"Oh, it's lovely. Allison, uh, can I grab you for a moment to talk? Just the two of us." Victoria said
"Um, can we do it later?" Allison asked not wanting to talk to her,
"Actually, uh, to be honest, sooner would be would be better." Victoria said running where she got bit even though the wound had healed completely
"Party's at 10:00." Lydia said
"Um, will you be around before then?" Victoria asked before Allison walked over
"Why? So you can go after Nate and try to kill him again?" Allison hissed quietly causing Victoria to look at her in surprise
"I was trying to-"
"Ruin my life. Yea, I know, so whatever it is you want to talk about it can wait." Allison said walking back to Lydia as Victoria frowned before she walked off
With Stiles
Noah walked by and saw Stiles looking through a yearbook, "Hey, whatcha doing?"
"Homework." Stiles said getting a nod from Noah who walked off but paused and looked back in,
"It's spring break." Noah said walking in as Stiles continued to look through the book, "What do you think you're doing?"
"I'm simply satisfying my own curiosity." Noah asked
"Satisfying my curiosity." Stiles said
"We brought Harris in this morning for questioning." Noah said causing Stiles to look at him
"And?" Stiles asked
"And we're working on a warrant to arrest him for the murders." Noah said
"For all of them?"
'Enough of them."
"With what proof?" Stiles asked
"You remember the couple at the trailer? Tire tracks nearby match Harris's car. The same car was also seen outside the hospital where the pregnant wife was killed. It's got some bumper sticker on it, a quote from Einstein."
"Wait, what quote?" Stiles asked
"Something about imagination and knowledge."
"Imagination is more important than knowledge, yeah. I saw the same car parked outside the rave." Stiles said
'That means you're a witness. You're gonna have to give a statement.'
XWhat about the concert promoter, Kara? She wasn't in Harris's class, right? I mean, what does Mr. lahey have to do with Harris?" Stiles asked
'It doesn't matter. The tire tracks put Harris at the site of three murders. That's damning evidence." Noah said before he paused, "Look at the swim team."
Stiles looked at the picture of the 2006 swim team and saw that all of the victims were in the picture, including, "Dad, the coach ...It's Isaac's dad."
Later,
Allison walked up the driveway at Lydia's house, and sighed, before she gasped when Naruto appeared and hugged her from behind and kissed her neck, "Hey." He greeted breathing in her scent as she smiled
"Hey, you sure this is a good idea?" Allison asked
"No, but no can talk Lydia out of not having a birthday party." Naruto said taking Allison's hand and walking with her into the party, with Stiles carrying a large gift
Lydia opened the door to see the 3, "Happy Birthday!" The three said before Naruto and Allison entered and Stiles tried but the gift wouldn't fit through the door so he began to try and force it through as Allison and Lydia walked away
"Stiles." Naruto called watching his best friend force the gift through the doorway before he fell atop of it, "You could've walked around back."
"Noted." Stiles said as Naruto helped him up
Later
Narutoo, Allison and Malia were sitting outside when Stiles walked up, "Have you seen Jackson anywhere?"
"No." The trio said
"So what's up with what you found?' Naruto asked
"I figured out it has something to do with water. You know, the fact that all the victims were on the swim team, the way the Kanima reacted around the pool."
"So whoever's controlling the Kanima hates the swim team?" Malia said
"Hated the swim team. Specifically, the 2006 swim team, it could be another teacher. Maybe like a student back then. I mean, who are we missing? What haven't we thought of?"
"New friends Jackson has. Before this someone he didn't typically hang out with would've been seen with him." Malia said
"Like Matt." Naruto said in thought causing everyone to look at him, "Night of the full moon, Matt provided the camera, I mean it would've been easy for him to connect his camera to another of his devices and see Jackson turn."
"It's a thought." Allison said
"Yeah, like how no one is here." Stiles said looking around
"Maybe it's just early." Allison said
"Or maybe nobody's coming because Lydia's turned into the town wack job." Malia said
"Well, we have to do something, because we've completely ignored her for the past two weeks." Allison said
"I can call the Lacrosse team." Naruto shrugged
"Yeah, I also know some people who can get this thing going. Like, really going."
Naruto laughed, "Please tell me you didn't keep their numbers?" He asked
"Who?" Allison asked
"I met them the other night. Let's just say they know how to party." Stiles said
Moments Later
Drag Queens and kids from school arrived and were enjoying the party, Allison and Malia were over in a corner enjoying the punch as Naruto sat with Stiles who was drinking punch while Naruto had some Hennesy, "You should try some punch man, It's good." Stiles said
"And Henny helps take the edge of the Full moon off." Naruto said drinking from his bottle, "How's things with Erica?"
"They're awesome. Wish she could've been here."
"Derek was adamant about chaining his pack up tonight."
"What's going on there? Do we trust Derek now?" Stiles asked
"It'll take time, but we can be cordial at least, then we will know for sure " Naruto shrugged before he frowned when he saw Jackson walk into the party, "He's here."
Meanwhile
Allison and Malia were laughing as they drank their punch, when Matt walked over, "I remember you. You're the creepy picture guy from the Lacrosse game." Malia said
"It's Matt." Matt said getting a shrug from Malia, "Can I talk to you, please for like 2 minutes."
Allison sighed and nodded, before she and Matt walked off and watched before she finished her punch,
Chris brought his wife a briefcase full of prescription drugs as they discuss how to fake her suicide. He thought of it because most women use pills when they take their own life. Mrs. Argent points out that she is not most women, pulling out a large knife. Victoria then left to write her suicide letter. Gerard urges Chris not to hesitate because of Allison, saying that she will face many earth-shattering events in her life. The old man says Chris needs to go upstairs and help his wife die with dignity.
Inside
Allison walked into a room and put her glass down before turning to Matt who was about to close the door but she cleared her throat, causing him to sigh, "You get two minutes."
"Okay. Uh, right. So I know I took some pictures of you that I should've told you about.
But is it really that bad that I think you're beautiful and I think you should be the subject of a perfect photograph?" Matt asked
"Um, Matt, some of those pictures I-I don't even know how you took them." Allison said
"Telephoto lens. I mean, come on, Allison. Photographers call them candids." Matt replied smiling
"Well, police officers call it stalking." Allison said before her eyes caught a figure wearing a hoodie wielding a crossbow
"Stalking. So I'm a stalker now. That's is that it? You you think my bedroom is wallpapered with your photos. You think I'm the kind of guy that's gonna say something like, "well, if I can't have her, no one can." Well, you know what? Get over yourself, because there's another pretty girl. Walking through the room every five minutes." Matt snapped as Allison smiled at him
"Well, then, all you have to do is wait another three. Good luck." Allison said
"Allison, wait." Matt said grabbing her arm but a leg sweep took him down before Allison's foot was on his throat
"Don't ever touch me. And stay the hell away from me." Allison said walking off
Allison walked through the party, looking around before she saw the hooded figure, "No. No, not here. Nate." Allison called before she gasped when a crossbow was shot into her when she looked up and found herself looking at herself, "Look at you. Yelling for help. Always yelling for help. It's pathetic, Allison. You you have no idea how much I've been looking forward to this."
Allison was touched on the shoulder and jumped turning to see Naruto, "You okay?" He asked
Allison looked down and saw her wound gone and her doppelganger gone, "Somethings happening."
Malia was walking up the stairs, and paused as she came upon her mother and sister, "You killed us."
"No." Malia said
"After everything we've done for you, you turn around and rip us apart, you little monster."
Naruto grabbed Malia's arm causing her to growl her eyes glowing as she was ready to take his head off but saw who it was, "Nate?" She asked turning and seeing her mother and sister gone
"Come on." Naruto said
Outside
Stiles was watching Jackson as he walked through the party, when he heard his dad's voice, "Why am I wearing black? What are you, an idiot? I just came from a funeral.
You know, people wear black at funerals." Noah asked drunk with a bottle of Bourbon in hand
"Dude, chill. It was just-"
Noah pushed the kid away, "Get out of my face." He said as everyone watched him before he noticed Stiles, "It's you. It's all you. You know, every day I saw her lying that hospital slowly dying I thought, "how the hell am I supposed to raise this stupid kid on my own? This hyperactive little bastard who keeps ruining my life?" It's all you.
It's you, Stiles. You killed your mother. You hear me? You killed her. And now you're killing me."
Noah tossed the bottle causing Stiles to flinch with tears in his eyes, as Naruto was there, "Hey, what happened?' Naruto asked
"It's nothing, I'm ok." Stiles said
"The tears say otherwise." Naruto replied before he led Stiles and the girls away taking a glass of and for himself
Later
The party was going on as Naruto, Stiles and the girls stood away from everyone, "So you all are hallucinating, great.' Naruto sighed as he sipped his punch but immediately spat it out
"What's wrong?' Allison asked looking over Naruto
"Wolfsbane." Naruto gasped
"That's it." Stiles said looking into the party as everyone was intoxicated with a kid walking around with petals
"Lydia." The four said
Outside
Lydia with her keys walked away from her party
At the lair, Boyd and Erica escape their bonds and attack Derek. While he is fighting them, Isaac bursts through the window of the subway car and runs away. The fight with Derek and the two remaining Betas goes badly. While he does manage to lock down Erica, Boyd is about to escape when Isaac returns. He is now apparently in control of himself and he helps Derek subdue his pack siblings. Isaac explains that he used the memory of his father to anchor him and stay in control. Derek believes this is because his father locked him in a freezer in the basement to punish him. Isaac reveals that his father's abuse was a recent development saying "he didn't used to.
Derek then left the car with a sigh and turned into Lydia who blew wolfsbane dust in the face knocking him unconscious before unconscious dragged him away
Sitting on Allison's bed, Victoria Argent holds a picture of her daughter and herself. She laments to Chris that she didn't get to talk to Allison earlier. She says she will need her husband's help. The moon is rising outside and she has the knife poised to plunge into her heart when Chris stops her.
She says she can feel the werewolf infection inside. They concoct a plan to tell people that she had a history of depression. She worries that people will tell Allison that she was weak, that she took the easy way out. Chris says Allison will know it was the hardest thing she ever had to do and that she did it for her family. She then asks him for help once again and, as the moonlight stretches further into the room and her eyes begin to glow a bright yellow, they plunge in the knife.
Party
Naruto and co had split up to find Lydia when Naruto found Stiles asleep, "Dammit." He said walking over with a water bottle, "Stiles, look at me. Drink the water."
Stiles remained asleep, "Nate, what're you doing?" Danielle asked a girl Naruto's known since first grade, "You want to sober him up fast, that's not the way to do it."
"You can do better, Dani?"
"I can do best, boy." Danielle said taking Stiles by the arm and dunking his head into the pool and holding him under before pulling him up
"How do you feel?"
"Like I might have to revisit my policy on hitting a girl." Stiles said after stammering
"He's sober." Danielle said
"Thanks." Naruto smiled before he saw Allison on the phone and she looked over to him
"My mom." Allison said
"Go." Naruto mouthed as he nodded watching as Allison left
Later, Hospital
Allison got off the elevator and saw Chris talking to an officer before she saw a body beneath a sheet, as Chris looked back and turned to her shaking his head, "No. No. No, dad." Allison said crying as she stormed up to Chris, shed pushed him, "No, dad! If this is some kind of sick training session you had you better tell me! You better tell me!"
"No. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." Chris said as he tried to hit Allison who moved back sobbing, before he wrapped his arms around her, "I'm sorry.
I'm sorry."
"What happened? What hap-" Allison sobbed as she broke down
Party
Naruto, Malia, and Stiles met up again, "Hey, I can't find her." Naruto said
"Me neither."
"And, dude, anyone who drank that crap, they're freaking out." Stiles said as they noted people jumping in the pool
"Yeah! I can see that. Let's go." Naruto said turning to leave before the three heard
"No, dude! Don't, don't, don't! I can't swim! No, no, no, no, stop, guys! I can't swim! I can't swim! I can't-"
They turned to see Matt be tossed into the pool, and begin to drown before out of everyone Jackson was the one to pull him out and the two glared at everyone before Jackson walked off
Embarrassed Matt asked, "What are you looking at?"
Matt began to walk off but Naruto was there smirking at Matt, "I'll be seeing you soon."
The two looked up as sirens were heard before Matt looked back to Naruto but found him gone and he looked around before leaving
Hale House
Lydia dragged Derek into his old home toward where he buried Peter as the floorboards had been chopped up to reveal the corpse, "Lydia. Lydia. Lydia, stop. You don't know what you're doing." He said weakly before Lydia out his arm in the grasp of the corpse and moved a mirror to bounce the moonlight into the hole on the corpse
Peter's eyes snapped opened after his claws cut into Derek's arm
Derek groaned as his eyes glowed red before Peter burst from the ground as Lydia looked around in confusion, "I heard there was a party." Peter said as Derek crawled back, "Don't worry. I invited myself."
