The Benefactor
season 4, episode 4.

Scott stood in front of Stiles after they delt with Liam. He knew he had another thing to bring up to his best friend. "There's just one more thing... The girl, Sage?" Scott finally brought it up an Stiles perked up at that. He had noticed how he reacted, they both had the same thought. "Is she a werewolf? Or is she like Lydia... Or Malia?"

Scott shook his head, there was no way Sage was like Lydia. "No, no it's... I think she is a wolf. I know her brother is, right after practice Malia pulled me aside and told me that she had heard her and her brother talking. That he couldn't do lacrosse because their father was afraid he would wolf out on a full moon." Scott was rambling, he wants exactly getting to the point.

"Okay, so wouldn't Sage just also be a werewolf?" Stiles questiond, he was confused on what Scott was trying to say.

"I think she's a werewolf and something else. Kinda like Malia. But there's another thing..." Scott trailed off, looking to the side. His voice had gotten lower as he looked back to Stiles.

"I think this is the Sage we knew when we kids. The one that disappeared when we were five."

"You really haven't heard from Liam since you left the hospital?" Stefan asked, leaning against the locker as he looked at his sister who just shook her head as she grabbed a book out. "No, I'm a little worried..." Sage closed her locker, closing her backpack and looking at him. "Mom and dad are still acting weird too. I heard them on the phone with Derek."

Stefan titled his head, he hadn't heard that name in years."Derek from when we were kids?" Sage just nodded, she wasn't shocked at his surprise."Maybe they were just telling him we're back in town, you know like for a visit..." Sage didn't believe it was like that. It seemed like a quiet meeting like Derek was telling them a secret."I don't think it was like that, Stef." Sage went to turn, but as soon as she did thebgitl felt hands on her.

"We need to talk, to both of you!" It was the guy on the field from the other day. Stiles had dragged the two off before they could question.

On the way, Sage had learned that Scott and Stiles were her childhood best friends. It was no wonder they looked so familiar. Sage stood in disbelief on how Scott had just told her that he had turned Liam into a werewolf. "I'm sorry, I might have a little trouble understanding but you thought it would be a good idea to fucking bite him instead of running away? Also, how didn't you even find out about us!"

One minute, she was getting ready for class and the next she was outside with her brother, Scott, Stiles, Lydia, Malia and Kira. "Malia over heard you talking to Stefan at practice on why he couldn't try out..." Scott mumbled as he looked to Sage who let out a deep sigh as she rubbed her forehead. She went to say something else but the girl known as Malia spoke up before she could.

"I'm not sharing my basement." That was were they had planned to hold Liam for the full moon. "Actually, it's my basement. And my mom noticed how you tore it up last time." The girl with strawberry blonde hair, who Sage was pretty sure was Lydia, had corrected."All right, she's still learning." Stiles quickly defended, rubbing Malias arm. She assumed the two were dating.

"But we're gonna use the boat house for Liam, it's got support beams. We can chain him to them." Sage was still confused on how they came into this, Scott and Stiles hadn't told them anything on that. "But how do we get him out to the lake house if he doesn't trust us?" The final girl, Kira, had asked. "I say, if it keeps him from murdering someone, we chloroform the little bastard and throw him in the lake"

Sage let out a scoff at that, going to say something but Stefan quickly grabbed onto her shoulder and gave her a look. "I'm in!" She heard Malia chime in which pissed her off. "We're not killing him!" Sage finally spoke up making everyone finally look to her and Stefan. "Then let's be smarter, we tell him there's a party and invite him."

Lydia looked to Sage, obviously agreeing with her. "So, you're going to ask out a freshman?" Stiles asked, holding onto his backpack. "No, I'm done with teenage boys." Lydia simply stated which Sage couldn't help but laugh at. "But, if we're playing a trick on someone... why not use the trickster?" She looked to Kira who looked shocked.

"Who, me? No way, not me." And she was obviously against the idea. But it was also obvious no one else would do it. "Why can't the two people who are actually his friends do it!" Now they were all looking at Sage and Stefan again and Sage just titled her head before shaking it. "Liam knows I don't go to parties. Also he thinks we don't have any friends here." She quickly told them, smiling at Kira before saying her nexts words. "So, yeah! It's you!"

Kira shook her head, which made Lydia speak up. "You know what they call a female fox? A vixen." Sage still didn't fully understand what Kira was. "Me?" She asked again, obviously still not wanting too.

"You can do it, Kira. Be a vixen."

All five of them had watched as Scott pulled up to the place. Sage had lied and told her parents they were staying at a friends, they weren't her friends. That was the lie. "I just talked to Kira, she's on her way. She said it's all going fine." Scott told them when Stiles quickly stepped in front of him, looking panicked. "Yeah, it's not that.. I have to tell you something."

Stiles quickly looked to Sage and Stefan. "Can you guys go inside? Um, it's kinda private." Sage didn't believe that one bit, though she didn't wanna argue. So, she pushed herself off the car and just nodded. "Well, okay then." She sent a smile that was obviously fake before walking off and Stefan following behind her.

She was definitely gonna listen in when she got inside.

They were all standing in the dark as Liam and Kira walked in. "What the hell is this?" Liam quickly spoke up, looking to Sage and Stefan who quickly waved. "Think of it like an intervention..." Stiles spoke up, and he was kinda honest on that. "You have a problem, Liam." Well, Sage didn't like that part. If could have been left out. "And we're the only ones that can help."

Sage had finally let her secret out. She had finally told Liam what she and Stefan were. Everyone did. They all had to tell him, it was the only way to get him to believe them.

"Werewolf?" He pointed to Scott who nodded then to Malia. "Werecoyote?" She had also nodded. "Banshee." He sounded in disbelief but Lydia just nodded. "Fox?" He turned his head back around to Kira who just shrugged. "Kitsune, but fox works too." She corrected at first before Liam turned to Stiles. "What are you?"

Stiles rubbed his forehead, the twins wanted an answer to that too. "Uh, for a little while, I was possessed by an evil spirit... It was very evil..." How the hell did that happen? What was even happening in this town? "What are you now?" Liam asked and Stiles looked around for a moment. "Better?" His voice was filled with awkwardness.

"An you two." His eyes we're fully on Sage and Stefan now. "You're a werewitch... Werewolf and a witch? And Stefan is just a werewolf?" Sage was sitting on the arm of the coach with her leg crossed over her other and nodded. "And you've been this the whole time I know you?" She couldn't blame him for being shocked.

"Well... Our whole life so yeah... The whole time we've known you. It's not like we were lying! We just didn't tell you." Sage knew that didn't make it better. Liam looked disappointed but before Sage could speak up he looked away."Are those for me?" He asked, looking down at the tables where the chains laid. "No, they're for me." Malia quickly corrected, her eyes turning a different color.

Liam looked freaked out as he looked around. "How'd you do that?" He asked Malia but she didn't answer. "You'll learn, but first you need to get through the full moon." Scott told him and Liam looked irritated. "The moon's already out." He had sounded irritated too. "And you're starting to feel something, aren't you?"

Now Liam looked pissed, Sage stood up straight at that. "I feel like I'm surrounded by a bunch of psychotic nutjobs! You guys are out of your freaking minds! I don't know how you did that eye-thing, and I don't care-- I'm walking out the door right now, and if any of you try to stop me, I swear to God, I'm gonna—" Before Liam could finish his sentence, he grabbed onto his head an let out a loud scream.

Scott asked what was wrong only for Liam to ask what he didn't hear and fell to the ground. That's when they saw the car lights. "Shit.. Liam who did tell about this?" Sage asked, looking towards Liam. "My friend, Mason..." Kira walked over to the windows, they could hear everyone cheering. "You said it was a party!" He looked at Kira as she turned back to them. "And who did Mason invite..." Stiles asked making Kira answer.

"Everyone..." She was obviously anxious, they could hear it in her voice. Liam kept groaning, starting to scratch the floors. "Get him off the floors!" Lydia started to walk over but quickly backed up when Liam stared at her and growled. "We need to get him to the boat house, now!" Scott told them and Sage and Stefan went to him and Kira take Liam there.

They were having trouble, they got the chains on but Liam was still fighting back. "I got him, get his hands!"! Scott looked to Kira, who quickly went to the back. As soon as Kira grabbed onto Liam's hands, he broke free, pushing all three to the ground. He was on top on Scott, growling and raised his hand. Kira quickly hit him with a paddle, and Liam fell to the ground.

"Oh my god." Sage spoke up when she sat up, Stefan reaching out his hand to help her up. "I didn't kill him, did I?" Sage heard Kira ask as she grabbed onto Stefans hand and got up. "No, he's out cold."

"I hope Stiles is having better luck."

Stefan and Sage had gone back inside, Scott told them they could handle Liam. He told them to go in and help Lydia so she wouldn't be so stressed. "You look for Lydia down here, I'll go look upstairs." Stefan looked to her brother, setting up a plan. He let go of the girls shoulders before heading upstairs. As she was was walking up them, he ran into Mason, Laim's friend. "Mason! Hey, I need to ask you a question." He quickly stopped the younger kid who looked around for a moment like he was confused.

"Stefan, I thought you didn't like parties?" The brunette let out an awkward laugh at that. "No... That's my sister who doesn't like them. Now, do you know where Lydia is?" Stefan quickly changed the conversation to his question before Mason could ask anymore."Oh! I just left her.. She's in that room."

"Okay, great! Thanks!" Stefan looked to the door he was pointing at before quickly walking over. He grabbed onto the handle, opening the door and walking in. "What are you doing?" He looked to the red head seeing how she was walking around. Lydia jumped slightly at his voice but waved it off. "Close the door." He was about to question why, but Stefan saw the look on her face and did so.

As soon as he closed the door, the room was silent. He couldn't hear the party downstairs and all the talking like he did just a second ago. "You have a soundproof room...? Jesus, how rich are you?" Though Stefan couldn't talk, his family was also kinda rich. But they didn't have a soundproof room. "Shut up." Lydia told Stefan making him lif up his hands in defeat before nodding.

He walked over to where Lydia was, walking with her to the record player. As soon as they were in front of it, Lydia turned it on. But Stefan didn't hear anything, that's when he saw Lydia looking at the wall which confused him. Because when he looked up at the wall, there was nothing there.

"Are you okay?" He figured this was something to do with her being a banshee... the thing is Stefan didn't know much about banshees. "Do you hear something or...?" He titled his head, though Stefan didn't know the girl well, he was still worried. "The key..." That was all she said. It worried him even more.

He heard the door open making him turn to see Kira. Stefan still hadn't gotten anything else out of Lydia. "She said she heard something." Lydia was still staring at the wall. "The key to break the code." That's when she finally announced what she was hearing. Though, Stefan didn't still exactly get it. What code was she talking about?

Lydia had opened the computer now, she was typing something into it. It had asked for a keyword, he watched as Lydia typed the name Allison in. He didn't understand who that was.. Why was she the key? As soon as she hit enter, a list of names. "What is this?" Kira was the first to ask as they all stared at the computer.

"It's a list of supernaturals in Beacon Hills." Stefan scanned the list, reading the names. "It's a deadpool– and we're all on it." Even Stefan and his family, when they had just moved there. How was this even possible? How did the person who made the list know about them?

"I need to find Sage."
