Stiles' POV

"Allison...come on Alli.." I whispered as I struggled to carry the girl I loved more than breathing out of Deaton's. Scott stayed behind with Deaton to see what Allison meant. Lydia ran into the woods because she already knew...and wanted to be a step ahead of Kate.

"St...iles..." She said in such a soft whisper I almost dismissed it as wind.

"Allison..." I said back to her as I pulled out of the parking lot like her life depended on it...because it did.

"She wants me....just let me go....let me go..." My girlfriend sobbed as she choked up black blood in her hands. Tears fell down my face as I choked down my own sobs. She was dying...I was watching her die in front of me...for what reason. Why did Kate want to kill her?

"No..." I said in-between both our cries....we're not giving up. I'm not giving up on you and you will not fucking give up on me Allison Argent. You're an Argent giving up....lying down and dying....that's not even in your vocabulary." I said as squeezed her hand. "Use the last bit of strength you have to fight. Come on Ali...you are the strongest person I know." I said as I pulled over into the Beacon Hills Reserve. It was the only place I could think of that Kate wouldn't think to look for us...well first at least. I was hoping she'd find Scott before she found us. Now the bite would've come in handy...if I didn't die from it. Honestly if this girl dies, I'm dying with her so that doesn't even matter now. 

"I'm not Stiles..that's you...it's always been you. But I do love you...so even if I've given up fighting for myself....I'll keep fighting by your side and for you. Till my heart stops Stiles...that's a promise." Allison whispered as it started to pour rain. I pulled her shaking body into my arms. 

"I love you." I said as I kissed the top of her sweat soaked head. She was breathing heavy as she let go of me. 

"Do you have a pocket knife?"She asked.

"Yeah I think so, why?" I looked at her with confusion.

"I....I...I'm gonna fight." She stuttered as I reluctantly handed her the knife. I watched as she glided the blade down her arm, cutting it open. It wasn't healing...blood was dripping down her arm on the seat of my jeep.

"Allison what are you doing." I said about to rip a piece of the plaid shirt I had on off to use as a turnikit.

"Blood leading...if I pass out don't worry." She said.

"Alright well that was the last thing I wanted to hear. Do you actually think that this will work?" I asked her frantically.

"I want to say yes...but I'm grasping at straws here Stiles." She said as I got out of the driver's side of my jeep and walked over to Allison's side. I picked her up and put her in the back seat. I pulled her on top of me. 

"Just stay with me...come on Ali." I said as she squeezed my hand. I tore my shirt and wrapped it around her arm. "That's going to need stitches." I said.

"Lets hope so." She said closing her eyes.

"No keep those big brown eyes on me..." I said. She laughed as she looked up at me and smiled with dry blood on her lips.

"Remember when we were freshman..." Allison said. "We thought we had it all figured out Stiles....we thought we knew it all. We knew next to nothing...about our futures, about the world we lived in....and mostly about each other. The one thing....the one single thing I knew was that I felt this pull towards you, those kind eyes, that smile...the willingness to run into a mine field for your best friend without any protection of your own. Stiles Stilinski I knew I loved you from the very first day. And I'm so thankful that I got to love you...that I got to experience having you as my boyfriend. That I got to kiss the love of my life and be in his arms one last time." Allison said as her weak hand grazed my cheek.

"Alli...please don't say that...don't give up on me. On us...try to fight a little longer. I can't live without you Allison. I can't go on....living in this world without you in it. It's not going to end this way. I won't let you do this to me." I started to sob as my tears fell onto her porcelain skin.

"Stiles...I...." was all Allison could get out before her eyes closed. I felt her breathing lull. She was giving up...she was in too much pain. If I had the bite I could take it...I could take her pain...I could save her. I..could've saved her..I sobbed as I held onto her body. 

"Allison please...please don't do this to me." I whispered through my tears. I heard howling in the distance, it didn't sound like Scott....I knew who it was. Kate...she was the one who started this...who killed the love of my life. But I was going to be the one to finish it even if I died in the process. Staying alive at this point didn't matter to me anyway.

I picked up Allison's lifeless body and carried her into the woods, the rain had finally stopped and I wanted to show Kate what she had done to her favorite niece. "Kate where the fuck are you....I want to show you what you did." I said as I leaned Allison up against the nematone.

"Stilinski....it didn't have to end like this. She wasn't supposed to die.." Kate said as she emerged from the shadows. Allison was collateral damage. You're the one I was really looking for and I knew making her vulnerable would lead me right to you...alone." She said as she we stood face to face for the first time.

"You killed her...that girl was my reason for living. And you took that from me. You took her light from this world. I don't care if I die, this ends tonight with you and I." I said as I ran towards her. No weapons, not even my bat...no back up with glowing red eyes. Just fury and rage...human rage. What I didn't account for were the Berserkers and not being able to feel it when one their horns went right into my side. I couldn't fight her, but at least I could die right there next to the love of my life. 

"STILES!" I heard Lydia scream as everything started to go black. I must've been dying because I swore I saw Allison open her eyes and reach out for my hand.

"Good try Stilinski but neither of us are going down without a fight." Allison said as she placed her other hand on my side. I screamed as she pulled the horn out and placed her hand over the wound. "Give me a second." She said as she closed her eyes. The open wound that would've killed me was slowly closing under her hand. She had figured out another one of her new found abilities...the power to heal not just herself but the ones she loved.

"I'm dead aren't I?" I said to her.

"No you're not but this is definitely hell." Allison said as I squeezed her hand.

"How..." I asked as Lydia ran up to us. 

"Scott picked up Kate's scent. He's tracking her now. I'm sorry we got here so late, but I figured it out. I know what she wants now." Lydia said.

"Yeah it was me." I said back.

"No it's Scott...she wants him completely defenseless. She was trying to take out the most important people in his life one by one. But...you can't take out a banshee." She laughed.

"Okay but explain to me how you breathing right now." I said bringing the conversation back to my very alive rosy cheeked girlfriend. 

"When you put me next to the nematone my hand touched the trunk and something clicked. My body started to heal, I was getting stronger and near conscious when I heard you and Kate and then I heard the Berkserkers. My eyes opened as you collapsed in front of me. And I don't know how to explain the rest. It was like an out of body experience...I just knew what to do." Ali said as she looked at me.

"He's your anchor...and you're his and that can save a life." Lydia said as I wrapped my arms around her. "Sometimes there isn't a reasonable or scientific explanation...love really is a powerful thing and it has the power to heal." Lydia said as she looked down at her phone with a smile. "Come on let's head to Scott's to regroup. His mom's making pancakes." She began typing back to Scott as Ali and I followed behind her walking hand in hand back to my jeep. Something was different...Ali and I were different. Whatever we just experienced..bonded on us for life. There was no way I wasn't getting to see this girl in white.
