the fox and the wolf

ALEX SMIRKED AS she followed Stiles into the classroom Kira's dad was in. Both her and Stiles' faces were more pale, bags under their eyes due to the lack of sleep they received.

"Coming in on a Saturday." Stiles started. "That's dedication."

"Where's she hiding them?" Alex asked as she crossed her arms, leaning against a desk as Stiles looked through the bookshelf.

"I don't know what you're talking about." Mr Yukimura responded.

"Her little knives." Stiles spoke as he purposely dropped one of the books on the floor. "Daggers." He dropped another one.

"We know what they are." Alex added. "Physical representation of her tails. However the hell that works." She scoffed.

Stiles walked closer to Mr Yukimura, Alex staying leaning against the desk, her arms still crossed.

"Maybe you'd like to do some reading on it." Mr Yukimura responded. "I can direct you both to the section on Japanese myth in the library."

Stiles smirked, Alex huffing an amused chuckle. "No. No, we'd like to talk to you." Stiles spoke as he slowly walked closer to Mr Yukimura, tapping on the desks as he walked past.

"The older the tail, the stronger the Oni." Alex started, then raising her eyebrows. "Am I correct?"

"We know there's one left." Stiles continued. "We know it's the strongest."

"Unfortunately, I don't know what you're referring to." Mr Yukimura responded, knowing the two teens were possessed.

"You'll talk." Alex clicked her tongue as Stiles lifted the book on Mr Yukimura's desk, a firefly flying out from under it and into Mr Yukimura's mouth.

"They always talk." Stiles finished as Mr Yukimura began choking on the firefly, Alex smirking.

"Where are we going now?" Alex asked.

"We're going to pay a surprise visit to Derek. Hopefully all our friends come too." Stiles replied.

"Do you have a plan?" Alex raised her eyebrows.

Stiles smirked as they arrived at Derek's loft, walking inside and facing the window. "I always have a plan."

Noah suddenly opened the loft door, frowning at the sight of his son and Alex.

The two teens turned around to face him.

"Hi, dad." Stiles spoke.
