From 6.01 "Memory Lost", in the road, the Ghost Rider shot through the windshield of Alex's car with his pistol, obliterating it completely to make it the wide, jagged hole it was now.

Ari: (voice over) "Previously on Worlds Colliding (Teen Wolf)"

From 6.01 "Memory Lost", in the Sheriff's station, Tara was showing the shard of glass she had taken from the impound lot to Sheriff. 

"Tara, there are a hundred reasons why that thing can be blue," Sheriff told her.

From 6.01 "Memory Lost", in the loft, Tara, Malia, Lydia, Angel and Chayton were talking.

"I had a vision," Angel told them. "And it felt so real."

"Maybe it was," Chayton told her. "I mean, your uncle is a harbinger of death just like Lydia, and maybe you are, too."

"Yeah, but no one's died," Angel told them. "And I think that neither Lydia or my uncle have sensed anything because no one's died."

"Yeah, but maybe your Raven abilities give you more to go on," Malia told her.

"The Ghost Riders," Tara told them. "The Wild Hunt. They come by storm, and they take people."

From 6.01 "Memory Lost", in the road, another Rider was standing next to the passenger side of the car, ripping off the door, grabbing Alex's mother, pulling her away.

Tara: (voice over from 6.01 Memory Lost) "If the Ghost Riders take someone, then we all forget them."

From 6.01 "Memory Lost", in the school hallway, Stiles and Stacie were talking.

Stiles was freaking out. "Everyone is forgetting everything."

"What's your name?" Stacie asked.

From 6.01 "Memory Lost", outside the school, Tara, Malia, Lydia, Angel and Chayton were talking.

"Who's Stiles?" Malia asked.

From 6.01 "Memory Lost", outside the school, Ghost Riders surrounded Stiles and Lydia.

Stiles: (voice over from 6.01 Memory Lost) "They're coming for me."

From 6.01 "Memory Lost", in the Jeep, Stiles looked at Lydia. "If anyone can remember me, it's you, and it's Stacie. Remember I love you."

Before Lydia or Stiles could respond further, the Ghost Riders pulled the door to the Jeep open, pulling Stiles out. Lydia gasped in shock.

Day One

Night - Beacon Hills High School - Lacrosse Field

In a clearing between the Preserve and the high school's lacrosse field, thunder rumbled overhead as a wave of fog traveled across the grass. Suddenly, multiple lightning strikes hit the field just as dozens of Ghost Riders on horses appeared out of nowhere, galloping quickly in a large swarm. 

Meanwhile, on the lacrosse field, Scott, Liam, Stacie and Ari were practicing lacrosse, and Natalie was practicing soccer. 

Natalie kicked around the soccer ball on one foot, launching it up, spinning in the air to kick it into the goal, landing on the ground in a crouch. (slow motion)

Ari turned toward the source of the neighing and thundering hooves, though she could not see or hear anything. She frowned in confusion. "Did you feel that?"

"Feel what?" Liam asked.

Ari hesitated, shaking her head. "Thought I heard something. Forget it."

(Song:) Fire - Barns Courtney

Scott looked at Stacie. "All right, let's keep going."

"Or we could call it," Stacie told them.

"We gotta work on your back shots," Scott told her.

"Why?" Stacie asked.

Scott chuckled. "Stacie, they suck."

Liam, Natalie and Ari were confused.

"What are you talking about?" Natalie asked.

"Stacie's back shots," Scott answered. "Which suck." Stacie gave Scott a confused look, spinning the lacrosse stick in her hand, picking up a ball, making a perfect back shot over her shoulder into the goal, then another, then another, and another. Stacie scooped up another lacrosse ball, spinning around to throw it right past Scott to the goal. Natalie, Liam and Ari were impressed, giving Scott a 'you were saying?' look. Scott frowned in confusion. "I must've been thinking of someone else."

Stacie nodded sarcastically. "Yeah."

Liam looked worried, turning to Natalie. "Natalie, maybe someone else should be captain."

Natalie gave him a reassuring look. "You'll make it." The lights turned off. "Well, guess we have to go now."

"No, we don't, Natalie," Ari told her, letting her eyes glow red so she could see in the dark, smirking.

Scott smiled, letting his eyes glow red. Liam and Natalie smirked, letting their eyes glow gold.

Stacie gave them a sarcastic look. "Don't know about you guys, but not everyone's a Werewolf that can see in the dark."

They smiled.

Inside - Physics Classroom

(Song:) Take the Lead - Statistics 

Mason, Corey, and several other fellow students, were in the science lab, where they were in the middle of an experiment. 

Mason was acting as a tutor by talking the others through what they needed to do, which involved creating a cream-colored putty in a bowl. "Okay, now stir in the iron filings..."

Cory looked at Mason with a curious expression. "How is this supposed to work?"

Mason smiled excitedly. "The ferromagnetic properties are gonna interact with..." He realized that Cory and the others were looking at him with confused expressions, looking mildly embarrassed by his enthusiasm for science. "Don't worry, it works. Just make sure that all the iron oxide is completely absorbed." He watched as Cory stirred the contents of the bowl with a metal spoon, smiling in encouragement. "Yeah..."

Cory looked at Mason, clearly impressed by his intelligence. "How come you're here if you already know this?"

A student scoffed. "Know it? He's practically teaching it."

Mason blushed modestly, trying to downplay what he was doing. "Well, this is, uh, my favorite physics lab..."

"We're all here for the extra credit," Cory told him. "I mean, don't you have like, a 4-point-something?"

"4.9," Mason answered quietly.

Cory looked at Mason in awe. "I didn't even know it went that high... I'm stuck at a 2.7."

Mason immediately tried to comfort his boyfriend when he realized how insecure Cory was about his academic life. "Hey, you work two jobs." He lowered his voice so the others, who weren't paying attention anyway, couldn't hear him. "And dying didn't exactly help your GPA. So, I don't know... all you need is just a little help."

Cory realized what Mason was really doing there, exhaling deeply. "You're doing this for me."

Knowing he was busted, Mason smiled sheepishly. "Are you mad?"

Cory smiled affectionately at Mason as he looked him in the eyes. "Furious."

Mason and Cory kissed for a brief moment, pulling away, returning to the experiment.

Mason smiled proudly, taking the iron-filled putty out of the bowl, putting it onto the table, handing Cory a magnet. "Okay, there you go."

Cory held the magnet a few inches away from the putty, delighted when he let go of the magnet and it slid into the putty. "It worked."

Mason and Cory looked at each other in excitement.

A pair of metal tongs slid across the table, getting stuck to the putty as well, causing the students to frown in uncertainty.

"Uh..." Mason trailed off.

"Uh, is it supposed to be that strong?" Cory asked. 

All of the students watched in a mix of intrigue and confusion as all of the metal objects on the workbench slid into the putty. They were all so distracted by this unexpected reaction that they were all extremely startled when Coach Finstock burst into the room.

Coach gave the students a look. "What the hell are you guys doing?"

Cory looked anxious. "Physics extra credit."

Coach both laughed and scoffed at this response. "Extra credit? At nine-o'clock at night? Come on, guys. Get the hell out of here! Go have lives."

Hallway

Coach held a hand to Cory and Mason's shoulders, leading the five students down the stairs through the entrance hall to the front doors. "Your teenage years are not the time for academic achievement."

Mason scoffed incredulously, looking at Coach as if he lost his mind. "Yes, they are."

Coach turned to face Mason as they walked, pointing at him. "That's a lie sold to you by the government." He squeezed Cory and Mason's shoulders, steering them toward the school's front entrance. "Go find some girls, get into trouble. Live a little, damn."

Cory and Mason both turned to look at Coach with increasingly annoyed expressions.

"We're gay," Cory told him.

Coach let go of them, giving them a double thumbs up. "Even better. Go gays. Now, get out of my face. I don't get paid to lock up after you losers."

Mason scoffed. "Yes, you do."

Coach, losing patience, gently shoved them through the doors, turning and walking the opposite direction. "Get out of here. Go wreak some havoc like the other kids."

Cory and Mason gave each other exasperated looks.

Mason patted his jeans, frowning. "Uh... My phone. I think I left it upstairs."

Mason turned around, quickly walking toward the psychics class without another word.

Cory sighed, waiting for his return. He watched Mason run up the stairs to the science lab, becoming unnerved when he saw the light go out in the entire school. 

The wind started to blow dead leaves around outside.

Cory pulled out his phone, texting Mason in an effort to help him locate his phone faster. Find it?

Cory was getting more unnerved as if he felt something, slowly walking down the hallway, where the lights in the entrance hall had been shut off. He took a few more steps down the adjacent hallway. "Mason?"

A powerful breeze blew open the double doors, blowing a swirl of leaves inside, startling Cory so much that he jumped in surprise. Cory wasted no time running over to the nearest wall, pressing himself against it, camouflaging himself. With his vision taking a green tint as he was in this other dimension, Cory's eyesight became enhanced enough that he could see a Ghost Rider slowly walking down the hallway, his right hand lightly hovering over his gun hostler in preparation for a battle. Cory was terrified, holding his breath in an attempt to not alert the Ghost Rider to his presence, but the Rider still seemed to be able to see him, though he didn't seem to care much about him.

The Ghost Rider walked down the adjacent hallway, where he met with one of his fellow Riders, pausing for a long moment before they continued on.

¤•¤°¤•¤

Physics Room

Mason had just made it back to the lab, where his phone buzzed just a few rows away so he could easily find it, walking over, picking it up, finding the first text that Cory sent him, along with a second one:

They're here. Don't move.

¤•¤°¤•¤

Hallway

Mason, concerned and confused, pushed through the double doors, where he was hit by a strong gust of wind and leaves. Not wanting to be in such an exposed area, he walked along.

¤•¤°¤•¤

Library

Mason walked into the library, where he found one of the students from the lab, the same one that had said Mason was practically teaching, was hanging from the balcony by his throat, though, from Mason's perspective, it looked like an invisible force was choking him. Mason was stunned by this sight. Cory grabbed Mason by the arm, making him invisible to keep him safe from the Ghost Riders, pulling him down behind a nearby table so they could hide. They watched in surprise as Cory's enhanced vision allowed them to see that the student was actually being suspended and strangled by the whips of the two Ghost Riders from the hallway. The student vanished in a burst of green smoke. The Ghost Riders jumped down from the balcony, landing lightly on their feet, using telekinesis to open the double doors so they could leave through them, telekinetically slamming the doors closed behind them after they were gone.

Lacrosse Field 

Scott, Stacie, Ari, Liam and Natalie were still practicing. The Werewolves noticed something off.

"What's wrong?" Stacie asked.

"Something's happening inside, Stacie," Scott answered.

Ari and Natalie ran toward the school. Scott, Liam and Stacie followed.

Inside - Library

Natalie, Ari, Scott, Liam and Stacie ran into the library, where Mason and Cory still were. Mason and Cory came out of hiding, wielding a fire extinguisher and a chair as a weapon, respectively, nearly hitting Scott and Liam in the face with them before realizing who they were. They sighed deeply in relief, dropping their makeshift weapons.

"They were here," Mason told them, breathing heavily. "The Ghost Riders."

"Here?" Natalie asked. "Just now?"

"I thought they left when the storm left," Stacie told them.

"I guess not, because two of them were right up there," Mason told them, pointing up to the balcony of the library. "We didn't see when they came in. Cory and I only saw them when we turned invisible."

Liam gave Cory a look, stepping closer. "You brought him into this?"

Mason immediately stepped in front of Cory. "He was trying to protect me."

Liam continued to glare at Cory, who looked nervous.

"Uh, they didn't seem to care about us," Cory told them. "They walked right by us."

"Then what happened?" Ari asked.

Mason and Cory were trying to remember, but they couldn't remember the full story.

"Uh, then they just jumped down and left," Mason told them.

"That's it?" Ari asked, unconvinced.

Cory nodded. "Yeah."

"They didn't take someone?" Scott asked. "There was nobody else here?"

Cory was trying to remember. "No. It was just us."

Tate House - Malia's Room

(Song:) Next Level - Kylie Rothfield 

Malia and a fellow student from school had just finished having sex in Malia's bed. The boy was coated in a thin sheen of sweat. Both of them were breathing heavily as Malia threw herself down on the ride side of the bed, immediately turning her back to him as if she had little interest in his presence outside of the physical benefits of their arrangement. 

The boy, on the other hand, was clearly impressed by Malia's sexual prowess as he tried to catch his breath. "That was, uh... wow." He saw that Malia had turned away from him, turning onto his left snide, snuggling up behind her, putting his arm around her, making her the little spook. Though Malia didn't seem interested in cuddling with him, she seemed willing to tolerate it until she started to feel the boy's breath on the back of her neck, becoming irritated by it. She turned around, grabbing him with both hands, flipping him on his right side so she could wrap her arm and leg around him, making him the little spoon instead. The boy seemed amused by this change in position, though he also appeared to feel a little emasculated by it at the same time. "I'm kind of not used to sleeping like this."

Malia was trying to sleep. "Shh."

The boy was about to try to fall asleep himself when he saw a bag full of chains and shackles, leftover from Malia's full moons following her return to her human form, laying on the floor next to the bed, looking alarmed. "Are those chains?"

Malia shushed him tiredly. After a beat, her tired brain caught on to what he had just said, realizing how suspicious the chains must looked to him, but still too interested in falling asleep for the night to do more than just try to halt the conversation. "Shh, it's nothing."

The boy didn't seem convinced by this response, continuing to look around in alarm.

Angel and Jordan's House - Angel's Room

Angel was laying on her back in bed with her eyes closed, though the rapid movement under her eyelids indicated that her brain was still active. Her bedroom started to rattle, startling Angel so much that she immediately jolted upright, looking alarmed as a train seemingly passed by the room, flooding it with golden light from their exterior lights as it honked its horn loudly. Angel was overwhelmed by the volume of a screech roar in her head like her own, and the violent shaking of her bedroom, holding her head in pain. She opened her eyes, revealing that they were glowing her dark, fiery gold color before the glow in her eyes faded.

The room quieted down.

Jordan walked in, looking exhausted, concerned. "Angel, what's wrong?"

Angel looked startled by her uncle's presence, recovering from the premonition she had just had. "Did you hear that?"

"I heard you screaming, and the screech roar when you tried to scream again, Angel," Jordan answered.

Angel frowned, struggling to recall the details of what she had just experienced. "No, it was the sound of a train passing through my room. And a screech roar like mine, but it was different. Like it was separated. Like a roar and a screech separately. It was a vision, a--a premonition, like the one I had at school, like you and Lydia do."

Jordan sighed, giving her a sympathetic look. "Angel, you were probably just having a nightmare."

Angel shook her head. "No, I wasn't. It wasn't a..."

Angel continued to try to remember everything from the premonition.

Jordan sighed. "Angel, there wasn't a train, and we haven't had an earthquake, and you've only had one premonition before. So... it must have just been a bad dream."

"Like your dream of hundreds of bodies at the Nemeton?" Angel replied. 

Jordan gave Angel a look. "Go back to bed. Goodnight, Angel."

Jordan sighed, turning around, walking out of the room, closing the door behind him. 

Angel sighed, muttering under her breath after her uncle was gone. "I wasn't asleep."

Stilinski House - Hallway

(Song:) There's Something Dark - Dustin Kensrue 

Stacie walked toward her room, still in the exercise clothes from the field, holding her bag and lacrosse stick. She paused outside of her room, looking across the hallway where Stiles' room had always been right across from hers, and was supposed to be. But there was only smooth, unbroken wall behind a table there now. Stacie was confused, trying to figure out what was different, unnerved.

¤•¤°¤•¤

Stacie's Room

Stacie walked into her room to get dressed for bed, putting down her lacrosse stick and bag, kicking off her shoes and socks, taking off her shirt, leaving her in a sports bra so she could change into pajamas, stopping when she noticed a picture was missing from her wall of photos of family and friends, standing, walking closer, accidentally stepping on a tack on the floor, taking a breath of surprise, taking the tack out of her foot. She saw the picture of the floor, picking it up, seeing that it was the same picture that Sidney had taken of Scott, Stacie, Stiles, Ari, Lydia, Adriana, Malia, Angel and Chayton, but now Stiles was not in the picture, leaving a gap between Stacie and Ari. Stacie looked at the other pictures, seeing that some of them had gaps as well, where Stiles was supposed to be. Sheriff and Stacie/Stiles' mother, Claudia, were in the pictures, and so were Scott, Ari, Adriana, Lydia, Tara, Natalie, Malia, Angel, Chayton, Liam, so on. Stacie couldn't help but wonder if there was someone missing.

Day Two

Morning - The Loft - Living Room

(Song:) Find What You're Looking For - Flint Eastwood

Scott and Tara were talking in the loft.

"So, Stacie, Natalie, Ari, Liam and I were at the school practicing lacrosse and soccer because he's trying to get captain for the team, Tara," Scott explained. "We heard Cory and Mason inside, and we realized that they were in trouble, and we ran inside to help. They said that they saw the Ghost Riders, but they didn't remember seeing anyone else."

"Let me guess," Tara told him. "There was something off with their memory."

"Yeah," Scott answered.

"I can't stop thinking about the Ghost Riders," Tara told him.

"Me, either," Scott told her.

"I've read everything about the Wild Hunt, Scott," Tara told him. "You know, how they come in by storm, collecting souls, riding lightning. If they were at the school library light night, they were taking someone. But the only trouble is, we can't see them."

"Tara, Cory can see them when he goes invisible, and he can help other people see them, too, if he makes them invisible, too," Scott explained. "That's what he did for Mason and him last night."

Tara nodded in understanding. "They only saw them 'cause of Cory's power. His powers could be somehow tied to the Ghost Riders, because he can move between the unseen world and the seen world, just like the Ghost Riders can."

Scott nodded in agreement. "All right, Tara, I have got to go to school. What are you gonna do?"

"I'm gonna find out all I can about what's happening," Tara answered. "See who might be missing, and see what I can do about getting them back."

Scott chuckled a little. "All right."

"What?" Tara asked.

"Tara, does it feel like something's been happening to your memory?" Scott asked. "I've been thinking the past couple days, and I feel like there's something that I've been forgetting."

Tara sighed, nodding. "Yeah, me too. And we probably are. We probably are forgetting something, or someone. If they were taken by the Ghost Riders, then we are forgetting someone."

"What if that someone is important, Tara?" Scott asked.

"Then we'll figure that out, too," Tara answered.

Scott and Tara smiled small smiles, leaning closer to kiss slowly and softly for a long moment, more passionately than before, pulling away, walking out of the loft together.

Beacon Hills High School - Hallway

Lydia had just arrived at school, where she looked around at all of the students milling around the entrance hall and smiled at a passerby. She instinctively wandered over to a locker as though she was waiting for someone, but after a moment, she frowned, as though she couldn't remember why she was there. She thought about it for a beat before sighing and leaning back against the locker. The camera then panned upward to show that she was waiting next to locker 1075. (obviously Stiles' locker)

Lacrosse Field 

(Song:) Nail Gun - Charlie Darker & Far Too Loud 

Soccer and lacrosse practice was on the same field again (like in 5.06 Required Reading) People were in their jerseys but not complete uniforms.

Natalie, Stacie, Ari and Scott were standing in the middle of the field between the two practices. Coach was standing next to them.

Natalie kicked a ball into the goal.

One of the lacrosse players knocked down another.

"Yes!" Coach told him. "Now that's what I'm talking about. That's how it's done. That is captain material."

Liam ran up to Coach, Natalie, Stacie, Ari and Scott.

Coach, Natalie, Stacie, Ari and Scott gave Liam a look. "You're late."

"Which makes you not captain material," Coach told him.

"Liam is captain material," Natalie told him. "He's--"

Coach blew his whistle. "Hush, Natalie. Let's go, gather around. Listen up. Thanks to McCall's selfish desire to focus on his 'grades' and his 'graduation', we are leaderless." Scott gave Coach a 'what the hell' look. Stacie and Ari chuckled, looking around, feeling as if someone was missing from the team. "You want to be a champion? You wanna be a hero? Now's your shot. All right, all you wannabe captains, I wanna see you guys tear each other apart."

Coach blew his whistle, making the guys gearing for captain run onto the field, including Liam.

Stacie was still looking around.

Ari was confused and concerned, walking toward Stacie. "You okay? You keep scanning the field like you're looking for someone."

"Yeah, I..." Stacie trailed off, sighing. "It just feels like there's someone missing."

Natalie frowned in confusion. "Yeah, I feel it, too. Like someone that should be here isn't."

Coach blew the whistle again.

Liam got flipped and flattened to the ground because he was holding back, playing without wolf powers.

"Definitely not captain material there, Dumb-bar," Coach told him.

Liam rolled his eyes. "Dunbar."

"Yeah, that's what I said," Coach told him.

"You said Dumb-bar," Liam told him.

"And your mouth just bought you equipment duty," Coach told him.

Liam tried not to get annoyed, standing.

Natalie rolled her eyes, shaking her head in exasperation.

Inside - Library

Angel was standing on the ground floor of the library, looking up at the balcony where the Ghost Riders had made the student the night before disappear.

Chayton walked up behind Angel, looking concerned. "Angel, don't you have class?"

Angel was startled, turning to face Chayton. "Don't you, Chayton?"

Students shushed them.

Angel and Chayton lowered their voices, walking further into the library in hopes of not disturbing the other students.

"I had another vision last night, Chayton," Angel told him. "It was like a train blew right through my room. And I heard a screech and a roar, separate, in my head. And my Uncle Jordan thinks that it was just a nightmare, but it was so much more than that. I wasn't even asleep."

"All right," Chayton told her. "Angel, what are you doing here in the library?"

"I was hoping to find one of the mom's books," Angel answered. "You know, my mom spent her life researching the supernatural and writing about it, and it's because of her writing that I know as much as I do now. She's the reason that I figured out what I am, what my uncle is. Chayton, I think it's because she knew that she was supernatural, too, but kept it hidden."

"So..." Chayton trailed off.

"So what if she also wrote about the Wild Hunt?" Angel asked. "Mason and Cory said that two Ghost Riders were in the library last night.  And I had a feeling about what happened last night."

"About what, Angel?" Chayton asked.

Students were getting annoyed. "Shh!"

Chayton pulled Angel into the shelves toward her mother's writing selection so that they could talk alone.

"Tara thinks that Cory's powers could be linked to the Ghost Riders because they can move between the seen world and the unseen world, Chayton," Angel explained. 

"And you think that your abilities can be linked to it somehow, too?" Chayton asked.

"Well, it would explain why I'm getting visions, and Lydia and Jordan aren't, right?" Angel asked.

"You mean other than the fact that people aren't dying, just being taken," Chayton told her. Angel gave him a sarcastic look. "So, Angel, what do you feel?"

Angel turned to look back at the balcony where the Ghost Riders strangled the student. "Chayton... When the Ghost Riders were up there, maybe they were holding something."

Chayton realized what she was getting at. "Angel, you're thinking that maybe they weren't holding something, but someone."

Angel nodded.

Hallway

Scott, Liam, Natalie, Stacie and Ari were walking down the hallway leading to the boys' locker room and the girls' locker room on either side of the hallway after their practices so they could get dressed in their normal clothes.

"I blew it, didn't I?" Liam asked.

Scott sighed. "You blew it off. You'd have to be trying in order to blow it."

"Maybe someone else can be captain," Liam told them. "With school and work, and all the other stuff we have to deal with..."

"Devenford Prep started practice three weeks before us," Natalie told them. "Riverside two weeks. We're behind before we even start, for both lacrosse and soccer. Half my team can't kick the ball, let alone get it into the net. Half your team can't even cradle the ball, let alone score."

Liam looked at Scott. "Why can't you stay captain?"

"I'm graduating," Scott answered. "You know, I'm not gonna be here next year. Somebody's gotta step up and fill in the gap. It should be you."

"Why do I feel like you're talking to both of us?" Natalie asked.

"Because I am, Natalie," Scott answered. "Liam should be captain of the team. But, you, Natalie, you should be the leader when I'm gone. Of Liam, of Hayden, of Cory and Mason."

Liam looked at Natalie. "Natalie..."

Natalie pointed at him. "Don't say I told you so."

Liam looked between them, sighing. "Well, Coach doesn't want me to be captain. I don't know if the team wants me."

"It's not up to them," Ari told him. "It's up to you. You have to want this. Because they're gonna keep coming at you. They're gonna keep knocking you down, and you have to get back up. You have to show them that you can get back up." She looked between Natalie and Liam. "Leaders don't run. I'm talking to you too, Natalie."

They heard clapping from behind them, turning around to see Coach there.

"Now that's what I'm talking about, Martin," Coach told her, obviously proud of the passion that Ari had spoken with. "That's exactly the intensity this team needs, Ari. Show Dunbar and Lady Lahey who's boss." He pointed at Liam. "And you, I'm looking forward to crushing that little adorable baby face of yours." He snickered, looking at Stacie and Natalie. "Stilinski, Lady Lahey, ready for track practice?"

"Sure, Coach," Stacie told him. She gave him a sarcastic look. "Never can get enough of cross country, lacrosse or track." Coach walked away. Stacie frowned, looking at Scott, Ari, Natalie and Liam. "I'm used to him calling me 'Lady Stilinski'."

"Well, he calls me Lady Lahey because he was a coach to Isaac, too," Natalie told them. "He never called Ari 'Lady Martin' because she was the only Martin on any of his teams. Not sure why he calls Stacie 'Lady Stilinski'."

Scott, Ari, Natalie and Liam nodded in agreement, though they were all a little confused on why it felt so different just by Coach calling Stacie by her last name instead of adding 'Lady' to it.

Math Classroom

Angel, Adriana, Ari, Lydia and Malia were sitting in math class.

Adriana was highlighting passages in her Economics textbook, waiting for class to start. She frowned when she came upon the word 'style' in one of the paragraphs. After a moment, she continued to highlight the rest of the paragraph, but not the word 'style.' 

"I'm impressed," Fleming told them. "With most of you. It really speaks to your study habits and your commitment to your own education. Everyone else, see me for extra help."

Fleming handed out their tests. Malia got a D minus, getting angry, gripping the desk with claws on her fingers.

Angel and the three Martin girls were worried, distracting Fleming so she didn't see.

"Ms. Fleming, um..." Ari trailed off.

"I already told you, Ari, I don't give extra credit for alternate equations based on your own theoretical findings," Fleming told her.

Fleming walked away.

Lydia, Ari and Adriana exchanged a look.

"Well, okay then, Ari," Lydia told her.

Adriana whispered so no one else would hear. "Malia, claws. Claws, Malia."

Malia relaxed, making the claws retreat.

¤•¤°¤•¤

Hallway

Stacie was walking through the hallway, stopping when she came up to Stiles' locker, walking closer in confusion, reaching out to touch it. She didn't know how she got to the locker, or what it meant to her, but it seemed to mean something, and she had no idea. After a moment, she continued to walk away.

¤•¤°¤•¤

Math Class

Ari, Lydia, Adriana, Angel and Malia were still sitting in math.

Angel noticed someone out of the corner of her eye, turning to find that an older woman wearing scrubs and a whit lab coat was sitting at the desk next to her. She frowned, looking around, confused as to why no one else found this strange, leaning toward the doctor, whispering to her. "Excuse me, who are you?" The doctor  turned to look at Angel with wide eyes, but said nothing. "What are you doing in this class?"

The doctor widened her eyes and her mouth gaped in shock when she saw a golden light coming toward her. Just like Angel's vision/premonition the previous night, the classroom started to rattle as what appeared to be a train passed right next to the school. Another screech and another roar squealed so loudly in Angel's head, that Angel was once again forced to cover her ears with her hands, flinching in pain from the sound. After a moment, the premonition passed, and Angel frantically looked around to find that the doctor was gone and no one else in the class, Ari, Lydia, Adriana and Malia included, seemed to have witnessed what had just occurred, concerning Angel deeply.

Office

Tara went to the school to talk to Nicole about missing students.

"You want to see the absentee list?" Nicole asked.

"Yes," Tara answered.

"May I ask why?" Nicole asked.

"Werewolf stuff," Tara answered.

Nicole sighed, giving Tara a look. "I thought I made it clear that Beacon Hills High School is a dedicated safe space. I had to convince 23 students that what they saw in the library last semester was a large bear, and the fangs on you, Tara Hale, and on Natalie Lahey, Liam Dunbar, Scott McCall and my nieces Ari and Adriana Martin, were the result of acute Teenage Hallucination Syndrome."

Tara frowned in confusion because she didn't think that was real, since she had never heard of it. "What is Teenage Hallucination Syndrome?"

"I have no idea," Nicole told her, confirming that it wasn't real.

Tara nodded. "But I think someone could be missing. And they could be in danger."

"Well, I can assure you that nobody has reported a student missing," Nicole told her. "And all absentees are accounted for. Tara, I appreciate your concern, and I thank you for your vigilance. Remember, safe space."

Tara sighed. "Nicole, do you have any idea the amount of supernatural activity that this school attracts? How many fights there have been in this school alone? Everything bad that has ever happened in this building, both supernatural and normal? This school has never been a safe space, and probably never will be."

Nicole gave her a look. "Tara, go back to class."

"I don't even go here," Tara told her.

"Then go back to something," Nicole told her. "Anything."

Nicole walked away.

Tara smirked slightly, sighing, walking away.

¤•¤°¤•¤

Hallway

Lydia was walking down the hallway, seeming to feel a sense of urgency, starting to run down the hallway, pushing open the door, running outside.

¤•¤°¤•¤

Flashback/Premonition

Night - Beacon Hills High School - Outside 

Lydia walked outside, experiencing a very vivid and intense auditory and visual memory but couldn't see who was with her. Her outfit had changed to the same one that she had been in the night Stiles had been taken by the Ghost Riders in 6.01 Memory Lost. She looked around in confusion as she heard Stiles' voice, though he was not physically present.

Stiles: (voice over from 6.01 Memory Lost) "You know me? Oh, thank God you know me!"

Lydia quickly turned toward the voice as a strong gust of wind tousled her hair, causing the dead leaves that were associated with the Ghost Riders to blow around her as well.

Stiles: (voice over from 6.01 Memory Lost) "Do you see him?"

Lydia squinted her eyes, looking around to find what Stiles was talking about, though she didn't know who it was that she was hearing thanks to the Ghost Riders' memory manipulation on her and on everyone else.

Stiles: (voice over from 6.01 Memory Lost) "Do you see him?"

Lydia's hands were outstretched as if she was gripping both of Stiles' hands, just as she did that night, but no one was there.

Stiles: (voice over from 6.01 Memory Lost) "All right, come on! Come on!"

Suddenly, Lydia was pulled forward by an invisible force, her left arm still outstretched as if Stiles was pulling her toward the parking lot. She looked extremely confused by the fact that her body seemed to be moving from a mix of muscle memory and instinct.

Stiles: (voice over from 6.01 Memory Lost) "This way!"

As a Ghost Rider appeared a few meters away, Lydia was brought to a halt.

Stiles: (voice over from 6.01 Memory Lost) "Whoa, whoa, whoa! Stop! This way! This way!"

Lydia was pulled in a different direction by the invisible force, but when more Ghost Riders came and surrounded them, Lydia began to panic, though it was unknown if she could actually see the Ghost Riders or not, since she was unable to do so that night, no experiencing full deja vu, anxiously and worriedly calling out to the forgotten Stiles. "Where are they?"

Stiles: (voice over from 6.01 Memory Lost) "Everywhere."

Lydia, now panicked, frantically looking around them as her hair was whipped around her face by the wind, and though she and Stiles were in the Jeep when the following conversation occurred, she still heard Stiles' parting words now.

Stiles: (voice over from 6.01 Memory Lost) "You will forget me."

Lydia had tears in her eyes, shaking her head. "I won't. I won't!"

Lydia desperately rushed after the voice in hopes of finding the source.

Ari: (voice over) "Lydia, look out!"

¤•¤°¤•¤

Now

Day - Beacon Hills High School - Outside

Lydia was pulled out of her flashback and back into the real world, where she found herself pulled backward out of the middle of the street by Ari just before Lydia was run over by a car. Adriana was standing with them.

The driver of the car honked at the girls in annoyance as they passed. 

Lydia tried to catch her breath and understand what she had just experiences. Ari and Adriana both looked at Lydia in concern.

"Are you okay?" Ari asked.

Lydia sighed, clearly confused and overwhelmed. "I'm fine, Ari."

Neither Ari or Adriana were satisfied or convinced by this response, giving their cousin a worried and confused look.

"What were you doing?" Adriana asked.

Lydia looked at them worriedly, overwhelmed. "Adriana... I'm trying to remember."

¤•¤°¤•¤

Sheriff's Station 

Tara, Angel and Chayton were walking through the Sheriff's station with Jordan in an attempt to get answers for Tara's feeling of someone close to them missing, and for Angel's premonitions. Jordan was going through paperwork.

"No one's unaccounted for?" Tara asked.

"You can reword the question as much as you want, Tara," Jordan told her. "The answer is still no."

"Does your Hellhound intuition sense something wrong with the supernatural?" Angel asked.

"I'm a harbinger of death," Jordan told them. "Not a harbinger of kidnapping. I'm also a Sheriff's Deputy working on an unsolved murder, that for once doesn't involve shapeshifters, resurrected 18th century serial killers, or me. It's just a straightforward robbery-homicide."

"Straightforward?" Chayton repeated skeptically. "He was bludgeoned to death and stuffed in a high school air duct."

"Chayton, this station already has a supernatural Deputy," Jordan told him.

"Yeah, well, it looks like you could use a couple more who can actually handle the truth of what's out there," Angel replied.

Jordan shrugged. "Maybe, Angel, but for right now, this situation is under control."

"Parrish, there are so such thing as situations being 'under control' in Beacon Hills," Tara told him.

Jordan gave her a look. "Have a great day, Tara. You too, Chayton. Chayton, please take Angel home so she's not driving herself crazy with this."

Jordan walked away.

Angel sighed, groaning in frustration. "Tara... Chayton... He's my uncle, and I love him, but sometimes I really wanna punch him in the face."

"That's any family, Angel, trust me," Tara told her.

Chayton chuckled in agreement. "Yeah. Mm-hmm."

¤•¤°¤•¤

Beacon Hills High School - Hallway

Adriana had also found Stiles' locker important though she couldn't figure out why, shining her phone's flashlight into the vents, looking inside. When she was unable to see anything, she sighed, putting her phone back into her pocket, considering her options. Not even bothering to look around and see if anyone was watching, not caring if she got caught, she grabbed the combination lock, and was about to break it so she could get into the locker.

Douglas walked up from behind Adriana, looking at her knowingly in amusement. "Whatcha doing?"

Adriana was startled but uncaring about Douglas' sudden appearance. "Uh, nothing." Douglas gave her a look. "Just checking out this locker."

"Is it yours?" Douglas asked.

Adriana clicked her tongue, not bothering with trying to lie because she didn't care. "Not really."

Douglas smiled in amusement. "I'm relatively new here, but I'm pretty sure breaking into someone else's locker is against the rules."

Adriana chuckled sarcastically, noticing how he seemed to know something that she didn't. "I'm not breaking into someone else's locker."

Douglas, still smirking, gave Adriana a knowing look. "What does it look like to you?"

Adriana sighed in annoyance at the teacher's attempts to redirect her, rolling her eyes. "It looks like I'm breaking into someone else's locker." Douglas chuckled good-naturedly. Adriana smirked sarcastically. "Sorry, there just seems to be something familiar about you. Do I know you?"

Douglas shrugged. "I'm new to the town, to the school, so I don't see how, but maybe you've seen me around."

Adriana was still confused, nodding cautiously. "Right. Maybe. I don't actually think I've seen you before, just something seems familiar."

"Well, you can figure it out when you go back to class," Douglas told her.

Adriana was obviously thinking about just knocking out the teacher so she could get into the locker and see why it had got her attention so badly, nodding sarcastically. "Yeah, probably. Or I could just--"

Natalie saw this, walking up to Adriana, placing her hands on Adriana's shoulders to calm her down, looking at Douglas, smiling nervously. "That's probably a good idea." She looked at Adriana, starting to lead her away. "Bye."

Douglas turned to watch them go, smirking slightly, knowingly.

Adriana and Natalie got far enough away from Douglas, exchanging a look.

"Natalie, you didn't have to do that," Adriana told her.

"Adri, you looked like you were about to knock him out," Natalie told her. "Yes, I did."

Liam and Mason walked up to Adriana and Natalie. 

"Natalie, what was that about?" Liam asked.

"Oh, nothing, just me having to stop Adriana from knocking out a teacher so she could break open a locker," Natalie answered with honest sarcasm.

Liam and Mason looked at Adriana in surprise, but they weren't shocked by this point. "Seriously, Adriana?"

Adriana sighed, rolling her eyes, but didn't deny it. "The guy creeps me out. I don't know why, I don't know how to explain it."

Liam nodded. "Yeah, he seems to only creep out the four of us. Everyone else loves him."

"The Ghost Riders at the library last night," Mason told them. "They must have had someone up there. I mean, that's the only logical explanation."

"Yeah, how do you know?" Adriana asked.

"Logic," Mason answered. "And Cory has a hunch."

"What, is that a chameleon thing?" Liam asked. "I thought all they could do was disappear."

Natalie sighed. "Liam... Cory just wants to help."

"Natalie, where was he when we were fighting a nine foot Werewolf to save Mason?" Liam asked. "And why was he loyal to Theo for so long?"

Adriana looked away at the mention of Theo, down the hallway. She seemed to hear something and sense something that she couldn't see.

"There was a time where we all trusted Theo, including all of you," Mason told them. He looked at Adriana. "No offense, Adriana, but mostly you."

Adriana was trying to tune that part of the conversation out so she didn't have to talk about it, while still looking down the hallway, tracing the double infinity sign tattoo on her wrist  intensely as if she was trying to resist the urge to lash out at something or someone, but it didn't calm her down, to Natalie's confusion and concern.

"I'll trust Cory when he does something trustworthy," Liam told them.

"Unlike right now, when I can hear his heart racing from across the hall," Adriana told them.

Mason, Natalie and Liam looked at her in confusion. "Adriana?"

Adriana nodded down the hall. "See for yourself, Natalie."

Cory appeared from next to a wall where Adriana had been focusing her attention on instead of the conversation, walking closer. "What about Hayden and Chayton? You forgave them, no problem."

"Hayden almost died that night trying to stab Sebastian," Natalie told him. "And Chayton helped us face down the Beast all night that night, helping us fight him."

"All you did was hide," Liam told him.

"What was I supposed to do?" Cory asked. "You guys have claws and fangs."

"Guys, look, it's not like chameleons are the apex predator of the animal kingdom," Mason told them. "All Cory can do is disappear."

Cory looked a little hurt by that, and Mason looked regretful of the words.

Adriana looked at Cory. "Then maybe that's what he should do."

Adriana and Liam started to walk away.

Natalie sighed, thinking about stopping them, but letting them go, looking at Cory.

"What, Natalie?" Cory asked.

"How are we supposed to trust you if you're hiding in the walls?" Natalie asked. "I want to give you a chance, Cory. But I need to know that I can trust you."

Cory sighed, looking at Mason. "Your friends aren't my friends. Why can't you just accept that?"

"That might work for you guys, but it doesn't work for me," Mason told them.

Natalie sighed, shaking her head. "I gotta get to work."

Natalie gave them a look, walking away.

¤•¤°¤•¤

Beacon Hills Animal Clinic - Backroom

Scott, Tara, Natalie, Stacie and Deaton were talking, while Scott, Natalie and Deaton were working.

"I keep having this feeling like there's pieces missing," Stacie told them. "Holes in my memory."

"The subconscious can be a conduit for our memories," Deaton told them. "Dreams and waking dreams can be powerful tools to help us remember."

Scott sighed. "Could it all be connected? The Ghost Riders, the Wild Hunt, the holes?"

"The Wild Hunt are drawn to war and mayhem," Deaton told them. "I've never heard of it doing anything to anyone's memory." 

Tara handed the piece of glass to Stacie. "Stacie, it's almost like you have a form of phantom limb syndrome." Stacie frowned in confusion. "My human uncle, Lucy's father, he was in the army. And he said that it's common in war. Amputees can have the sensation of an itch they can't scratch or a pain that couldn't possibly be there. The missing limb is so important, that the brain acts like the limb's still there."

"So my subconscious is trying to tell me what's missing," Stacie told them.

Tara nodded. "It may be."

"How do we figure out what it's saying?" Scott asked.

"Well, the easiest way to do that would be to simply go to sleep," Deaton answered.

Stacie nodded.

Natalie looked at the text from her phone. "You guys do that. I have to see what this is about."

"What is it?" Scott asked.

"Cory wants me and Liam to meet him at the school," Natalie answered. "He says that he has something important to show us." Scott, Tara and Stacie frowned in confusion. Natalie sighed. "The  three of us, Mason and Adriana might have had an argument with him earlier about if we could trust him or not, and that I wanted to give him a chance if he could prove that we could trust him." Scott, Stacie and Tara exchanged a knowing look, smiling small smiles. Natalie knew what they were thinking, chuckling. "Shut up."

¤•¤°¤•¤

Night - Stilinski House - Hallway

Stacie walked up to her room, stopping in the hallway when she looked across the hallway at the smooth, unbroken wall across from her room, puzzled and confused, once again thinking that something was missing. 

¤•¤°¤•¤

Stacie's Room

Stacie walked into her room, changing into her pajamas to go to sleep, laying down, soon falling asleep. The silence eventually turned into the sounds of insects, birds and other fauna chittering as if in the forest.

¤•¤°¤•¤

Beacon Hills Preserve - Ari and Adriana's Tree

(Song:) Of the Mountains - Dan Deacon

Stacie became aware of the noise, opening her eyes, sitting up to realize that she was no longer in her bed, but instead laying on the ground in the middle of the Preserve nearby Ari and Adriana's tree with the carvings in it. She was confused and rattled as to how she got there, alarmed by the sounds of wolves howling in the distance, looking around to try to figure out why she had sleepwalked all the way out there.

(Song Ends)

¤•¤°¤•¤

¤•¤°¤•¤

Tate House - Malia's Room

Malia was sleeping soundly in her bedroom. An owl hooting started to stir her awake. Malia frowned in confusion, opening her eyes, looking around her room, becoming just alarmed as Stacie when she realized that she had her own version of sleepwalking, but in Malia's case, she took all of the covers off of her bed and used them to make a small little coyote den on the floor in the corner between the two open windows in her room. Confused and unsettled, Malia sleepily walked over to her bed, only to stub her toe on the bag of chains still sitting n the floor by her nightstand. She knelt down, picking up the shackles connected to the chains, looking at them in confusion.

¤•¤°¤•¤

Beacon Hills High School - Basement 

Lydia, Ari and Adriana had just walked down the stairs into the basement of the school, on edge, not knowing what to expect, wandering through the aisles between bookshelves.

Ari caught Malia's scent, leading Lydia and Adriana toward her. "Over here."

They followed the trail until they found Malia next to another shelf, where she had shackled one of her wrists to it, and was attempting to do the same to the other. The three Martin girls looked at Malia with a mix of concern and exasperation, walking closer.

"Has it really come to this?" Lydia asked.

Malia rattled her right hand, which was holding the shackle that she couldn't lock due to her left wrist already being cuffed, looking at them sheepishly. "Can you give me a hand?"

Adriana, not knowing how to respond to this situation, tried to defuse the tension with humor. "If this is a new after-school club..." She clicked her tongue, tilting her head. "Count me out?"

Malia sighed in frustration and worry. "Adriana, I've got a problem. I'm growling at people in class, I'm clawing at my desk... I tried turning the floor of my bedroom into a coyote den." The three Martin girls understood why Malia was so unsettled, looking at her in concern. Malia once again rattled the chains she was using to bind her wrists. "Do these look familiar to you?"

"No," Lydia answered. "Why would it?" Malia frowned in confusion. Lydia, not understanding where Malia was going with this, assumed that she was only worried about losing control. "Malia, do you really think this is going to keep you safe?"

"They used to," Malia told them. "Before the lake house, this is where I'd come for the full moon. But none of you were down here with me. Scott, Stacie, Natalie, Angel, Kira, they weren't down here with me. Neither was Tara, because Tara was locked up in Mexico with the Calaveras at the time."

Adriana nodded. "Right. So... who was?"

To demonstrate her point, Malia held up her hands, as her left wrist had been shackled, but her right hand, which was free, was still simply clutching the chains. She tried to pull her hands together, but due to the short amount of chain between the shackles and where they attached to the wall, Malia was unable to touch her hands together, causing Ari, Lydia and Adriana to realize that there was no way Malia could have locked herself up, and that someone else had to have helped her.

"You couldn't have done it alone," Ari told her. Her phone buzzed. She pulled it out to look at it, looking up at the other girls. "It's Stacie."

¤•¤°¤•¤

Beacon Hills Preserve 

Lydia, Adriana and Malia pulled up to the entrance to the Preserve in Lydia's car. Ari pulled up to the entrance on her motorcycle. Ari got off her bike, pulling off her helmet, shaking out her hair. Lydia, Adriana and Malia got out of the car. They walked toward where Scott, Stacie and Tara were waiting. Stacie was dressed again.

As Scott and Stacie were explaining about the night that they were in the woods in 1.01 Wolf Moon, it showed flashbacks of only them, and it didn't show Stiles, as they didn't know why they had been out there, leading to their holes of memory and confusion.

"Hey, I went to bed at home and I woke up out in the woods," Stacie told them. "About a mile out nearby Ari and Adriana's tree. I think there's a reason why this has happened." She led them toward the place. "Scott, you remember when we came out here before? It was the beginning of sophomore year, the night before tryouts for first line?"

Scott nodded. "Yeah, of course. I remember because it was all that I could think about."

"What were you two doing?" Malia asked.

"We were looking for a dead body," Scott answered.

"Yeah, it ended up being my sister Laura," Tara told them. "She was killed by an Alpha."

"That's morbid," Adriana told them.

"Yeah, but it wasn't my idea to come out here," Stacie told them. "And it wasn't Scott's. So what were we doing out here?"

"I wish I could help you, but I didn't start hanging out with you guys again until after I was bitten," Ari told them.

"And I didn't know you then," Lydia told them. "Neither did Tara."

"No, I met them the next day," Tara told them.

"I was still a coyote, so I might've tried to eat it," Malia told them.

"I was still in the Alpha Pack, but they did use me to spy on you guys since then," Adriana told them.

"Tara and Deaton said that our subconscious are trying to tell us something," Scott told them. "But I need you guys to help me figure out what it's saying."

"Maybe you were just curious teenagers," Lydia told them. "You heard there was a body. I mean, Stacie, you are the Sheriff's daughter. Of course you would've heard about the body."

"I actually didn't start listening to my dad's police scanner until after we figured out about the supernatural," Stacie told them. "And this was before that. And my dad kept these things secret from me. So how did I hear about the body?"

"And Stacie didn't have a car back then," Scott told them. "And I didn't have my bike. So how did we get here?"

"You ran?" Malia asked. "Stacie's been in cross country and track since starting high school. She could've done it."

"But I didn't," Stacie told them.

"And I couldn't have," Scott told them. "I had asthma."

"We were hiding, but my dad knew we were here," Stacie told them.

"Maybe Scott made a ton of noise with his asthmatic breathing," Adriana told them.

"Dad could've assumed that it was me there, but how would he know that Scott was there, too?" Stacie asked. "I mean, we weren't as close as we are now."

"I don't even remember how we became friends," Scott told her.

Stacie shook her head. "I don't either."

"I wasn't a Werewolf yet," Scott told them. "And Stacie and I couldn't have been out here alone."

Beacon Hills High School - Outside 

Liam and Natalie met up with Cory outside the school.

"Why didn't you invite Adriana here after arguing with Adriana earlier, too?" Natalie asked.

"Because Adriana scares the hell out of me, Natalie," Cory answered.

Liam nodded in acknowledgement. "Adriana scares the hell out of a lot of people, especially when Adriana's going dark."

Cory sighed. "I just wanted to tell you... that I was wrong. I thought we could hate each other, and it wouldn't matter. But it does matter. It matters to Mason. And he matters to all of us."

"I'm not trying to come between you," Liam told him.

"And neither am I," Cory told them. "But if we keep up like this, he might feel like he has to chose."

"You want us to just act like nothing happened?" Liam asked.

Natalie shook her head. "We could work together. Maybe we could find something together."

"Yeah, like what?" Liam asked.

"Like a trace of them," Cory answered. "A Ghost Rider."

Liam and Natalie exchanged a look. Liam looked hesitant. Natalie nodded reassuringly.

¤•¤°¤•¤

Beacon Hills Preserve

Scott, Tara, Stacie, Ari, Adriana, Lydia and Malia were still standing together and talking.

Scott sighed. "I know this sounds crazy. But I think we had a friend. And I think he was out here with me and Stacie that night."

"I don't think he was just my friend," Stacie told them. "I don't mean like that way, but I think... I think he was my family."

"And I've been running to the school and to the station to figure out who was missing," Tara told them. "I think I was looking for someone in particular."

"It doesn't sound crazy," Malia told them. "I know that someone chained me up, and I think they wanted me to stay human."

"I came to the school this morning, and I was sure I was supposed to meet someone," Lydia told them. "But I couldn't remember who it was supposed to be." She sighed worriedly. "I have been looking for them all day. Whoever it is, I think I loved him."

"Ari?" Stacie asked. "Ari, what do you think?"

"Natalie and Stacie both said something about it felt like someone was missing from lacrosse and soccer practice today," Ari told them. "I felt like someone was missing, too."

"I've felt like someone's been missing, too," Adriana told them. "Just little things standing out to me. Like words in a textbook or a certain locker in the hallway."

"What locker?" Tara asked.

Adriana, Lydia and Stacie, having been at the locker themselves, also spoke together with Scott, Ari and Malia, as if they had been drawn to the locker as well. "Locker 1075."

Tara nodded, rolling her eyes slightly. "Got it."

"What if we're all missing the same person?" Scott asked.

Stacie took out the picture of the seniors from school, showing them the huge gap between Scott and Stacie. "I think he was in this picture. And I think he was in a lot of my pictures."

Ari pointed at the gap. "He was sitting right there."

They all looked at each other.

Beacon Hills High School - Outside

Natalie, Liam and Cory were still standing outside.

Cory held his hands toward Liam and Natalie. "You want to do this? Hold my hands."

Natalie took Cory's hand. Liam hesitated, grabbing the other. Cory made them go invisible. In the other side of whatever this was when they were invisible, it looked like everything was tinted in green, intense.

Natalie looked around, laughing in awe. "Wow."

Sheriff's Station

Jordan had just approached the Sheriff in the bullpen, where he was filling him in on the state of their current investigation into the death of the man driving the truck full of helium in 6.01 Memory Lost. "The cube truck driver's name was Nick Mazzara. He has a record of petty theft and dealing drugs, but nothing violent. He was a driver of a medical supply company, which gave him access to hospital supplies."

Sheriff's eyes widened as he put the pieces together. "Like helium. Why does a hospital need helium in the first place?"

"It's for heliox therapy," Jordan explained. "It's mostly used for respiratory injuries caused by fires or explosions. Burn victims from Afghanistan were treated with it at the local recovery hospitals."

Sheriff nodded. "Okay, what about our hospital?"

"Someone's been raiding the supply for months," Jordan answered. "I'm also compiling a list of Mazzara's known associates. I can start interviews in the morning."

Sheriff smiled proudly at Jordan for a job well done. " Nice work, Parrish."

Just as Jordan was about to walk away, he remembered something, turning back. "Oh, and your wife's waiting for you in your office."

Sheriff looked momentarily confused. "My wife?"

Jordan turned around, walking away.

Sheriff's Office

Sheriff walked into the office.

Claudia Stilinski, seemingly alive and well, was sitting at his desk while she waited for him, seeing Sheriff walk in, standing. "I thought I'd surprise you."

Claudia smiled.

Beacon Hills High School - Library 

Still holding hands and invisible, Natalie, Cory and Liam walked into the library, looking around.

"Do you even know what we're looking for?" Liam asked.

"If it's a book, we'll be here a while," Cory told them, chuckling.

Natalie chuckled slightly, looking up at a card in the railing on the balcony above. "Do you see that?"

"Let go," Cory told them. Liam and Natalie let go, becoming visible again, while Cory stayed invisible. "Do you still see the card?"

Liam frowned in confusion. "No. It's gone."

Liam and Natalie heard Cory walk up to the balcony to grab the card.

Cory became visible with the card in his hand. "Can you see it now?"

"Yeah," Natalie answered. "We can."

Liam and Natalie smiled slightly in awe when they saw the card visible thanks to Cory's powers.

Sheriff's Station - Office

(Song:) Young at Heart - Covenhoven

Sheriff was sitting at his desk.

Claudia pulled a boxed salad out of a bag, putting it on Sheriff's desk in front of him, looking slightly amused by the face he made at the sight of it. "I had a hunch you probably forgot about dinner."

Sheriff was clearly not thrilled about the salad in front of him, trying his best to look appreciative of the effort. "Oh, it's uh... What, uh, what--what is--" He read the name off the salad box, struggling to pronounce the name. "Kee-noo-wah?"

Claudia smiled. "It's quinoa. Quinoa and kale."

Sheriff swallowed in distance, managing a fake smile. "Oh, that's... That's... Well, you and Stacie, always getting me this stuff, always looking out for me."

"Well, we want you around for a long, long time," Claudia told him.

Sheriff slowly picked up his fork, forcing himself to take a bite of the salad.

Claudia continued to watch in amusement. 

Sheriff reluctantly swallowed his bite of salad, humming in feigned delight, trying his best to humor her. "Mm." Claudia smiled, rolling her eyes, pulling out a second paper bag, taking out curly fries and a cheeseburger. Sheriff laughed in true delight this time, quickly unwrapping the food, taking a bite. He looked up at her as if he couldn't believe she was real. "Happy?"

Claudia smiled contentedly. "Always."

Sheriff, overjoyed, grabbing Claudia by the waist, pulling her toward him until she was sitting on his lap in his chair. They looked at each other adoringly for a long moment, kissing.

Beacon Hills High School - Library

Angel, Chayton and Mason had met up with Natalie, Liam and Cory in the library, now caught up to speed as to what they were up to.

Mason took the card from Cory. "Angel, it's just like in physics. It wasn't there until you saw it. Then it became real. It's Schrodinger's cat, Chayton. The quantum state of superposition. To see something is to change its very existence. It changed reality."

"I still don't get it," Cory told them.

"What do you think it is?" Chayton asked.

"It looks like a library card," Angel answered. "Except its blank."

Liam took the card from Mason, jumping over the counter to get to the computer behind the table. Natalie slid over the counter to stand next to Liam at the computer. Angel and Chayton sat up on the counter behind Natalie and Liam to watch. Mason and Cory ran around the counter to stand behind Natalie and Liam, next to Angel and Chayton. Liam swiped the card in the card reader, bringing up information on the computer, putting the card on the counter.

"Jake Sullivan," Mason told them, starting to remember. "He was in the physics lab last night."

"I completely forgot about him," Cory told them.

"Me too," Angel told them. "We have Spanish together."

Natalie looked down at the card, seeing that it now showed a full photo identification for sophomore Jake Sullivan, looking at the boys and Angel, picking up the card. "They erased him." 

Mason and Cory could now remember what had really happened the night before with the Ghost Riders.

Chayton looked at Cory. "Your hunch was right."

They all smiled little smiles, knowing they got a little closer to figuring out the Ghost Riders.

Coach's Office

Coach seemed to be playing some kind of kung-fu games on two different MacBooks. Liam walked in, clearing his throat to get his attention.

Coach seemed disturbed by being caught, abruptly closing the laptops, looking embarrassed before he immediately started stammering a response. "Uh, hey, what is it, Dunbar? I'm busy online."

"I wanna sign up for team captain," Liam answered, walking closer.

Coach scoffed. "Yeah, it's too late. I said 'end of the day.'"

Liam reached out, picking up the clipboard with the signup sheet, signing his name. "You didn't say 'end of the school day'."

Coach was impressed by Liam's new change in attitude, smiling despite himself. "Hey, what changed your mind?"

Liam thought for a moment before responding. "I held a guy's hand."

Coach chuckled, not understanding the joke, smiling. "I get it. I totally get it."

Beacon Hills Animal Clinic - Backroom

Scott, Stacie, Ari, Tara, Lydia, Adriana and Malia went back to the clinic to talk to Deaton. Stacie was sitting down while everyone else was standing. Deaton hung the shard of glass from the impound lot on a string in front of Stacie, turning on a light from underneath it to make it shine like a crystal.

"Now she just magically writes down all the answers?" Malia asked.

"It's not quite that simple," Deaton told them.

"It never is," Tara told them.

"In automatic writing, the hand moves outside of any conscious awareness," Deaton told them. He looked at Stacie. "You're the one that seems to have the most awareness of missing memory, and if you are right about this person being your family, then you will most likely have the most memories locked away to tap into. Now hopefully the silence, the darkness, and the light will allow you to find a more comfortable, relaxed, trance-like state. Stacie, I want you to stare into the light. And let go of all thought." Deaton put a piece of paper and a pen in front of Stacie, walking toward the others. Stacie picked up the pen, looking at the glass and the light, doing as Deaton said and releasing all thought and tension from her body. After a moment, Stacie started to write without thinking. "I have to warn you. We may not be able to access these memories."

"Why not?" Scott asked.

"The legend has always been that the Wild Hunt takes people," Deaton told them. "But if what you're telling me is right, the truth is much worse. They erase people from reality."

Stacie continued to write, more intensely.

"How did we remember someone who has been completely erased from our minds?" Adriana asked.

"Maybe he hasn't been," Ari told them. The more Stacie wrote, the more furious it became, more intense. "Oh, is she... Should we stop her?"

Deaton walked toward Stacie. "Stacie? Stacie, slow down."

Deaton turned the light off in front of Stacie, snapping her out of the daze.

"Is she okay?" Scott asked.

"Stacie?" Adriana asked.

Stacie looked at the paper, seeing that she had written the word 'mischief' over and over.

"What does mischief mean?" Malia asked.

"That's not what she wrote," Tara told them.

Stacie saw that the pattern of the word across the page said: STILES.

Lydia picked the paper up to see. "What the hell is a Stiles?"
