Strange Days in Beacon Hills: A Teen Wolf RP

"But if you play, I'll have no one to talk to on the bench." Stiles said with heavy breaths. "Are you really going to do that to your best friend?"

"I can't sit out again. My whole life is sitting on the sidelines." Scott replied as they made it up the hill to the lacrosse field. "This season I make first line." Scott was distracted by the girl from his homeroom class, forgetting what he was about to say.

"McCall!" Their coach called, catching his attention.

"Yeah."

"You're on goal."

"I've never played."

"I know. Scoring some shots will give the boys a confidence boost. It's a first day back thing." The coach said while smacking Scott on the arm. "Get them energized, fired up!"

"What about me?" Scott asked, disappointed.

"Try not to take any in the face." Coach turned to the field and yelled, "Let's go! Come on!"

Scott got in position in front of the goal and turned back to the stands to look at the girl from his class.

She turned to Lydia and asked, "Who is that?"

Lydia turned to the field to see who she was talking about. "Him? That's Scott McCall. I only know him because he's friends with Cyrus, the second best player on the team. Why?"

Scott could hear them talking about him and turned his head to listen more.

"He's in my homeroom and English class. He lent me a pen and he's kinda cute."

Before Scott could hear more of what they were saying the assistant coach blew the whistle causing both his and Cyrus's ears to hurt. They both tried to cover their ears to block out the nose and before Scott could recover he was hit in the head by a flying ball causing a few to laugh.

By the time that the next ball flew towards him Scott was ready and caught it without trying. He was more surprised than his teammates.

"Yeah!" Stiles called out from the bench before muttering under his breath. "He's definitely a werewolf."

Scott continued to catch the balls heading his way after this even gaining praise from Lydia and the new girl. "He seems like he's pretty good."

"Yeah, very good."

Meanwhile, Jackson wasn't having it. He tried to cut in front of Cyrus, but he lightly pushed him aside. "After me." Cyrus said before launching his ball towards the goal. Scott prepared to catch it but the ball flew straight through his stick's net.

"Woah. Who was that?"

"That's Cyrus. Seems he's gotten stronger over the summer."

Jackson refused to be shown up and went next. He ran forward and jumped into the air before launching his ball towards Scott. With a broken net Scott wasn't sure of what to do. But as the ball drew closer he put his left hand behind the net to use it to catch the ball causing Stiles, Scott, Lydia, and the new girl to cheer for him.

After practice the trio of Cyrus, Scott, and Stiles trekked through the woods to find Scott's inhaler. "I don't know what it was." Scott started. "It was like I had all the time in the world to catch the ball. And that's not the only weird thing. I can hear stuff I shouldn't be able to hear. Smell things."

"Smell things? Like what?" Stiles asked.

"Like the Mint Mojito gum in your pocket."

Stiles reached into his jacket pocket to search for it. "I don't even have any Mint Mojito..." Before he could finish the sentence he pulled out a half unwrapped piece of gum.

Scott stretched out his arms to say, "Told you."

Cyrus grabbed Scott's shoulder and looked him in the eye like he was about to deliver terrible news. "We're werewolves, Harry."

"Come on. You can't seriously believe that. You're the second person to say that today."

"It's true. I'm experiencing the same things. Wait second? Who was the first?"

"This new girl at school. She dragged me into the bathroom to tell me."

"Oooh." Stiles said with a childish tone. "Bathroom meetings? Our little Scott's growing up."

"It wasn't like that. But this can't be for real, can it?"

"Unfortunately, or fortunately depending on how you feel, it is. But I'm more concerned about there being another werewolf in school. You don't think?"

"No." Scott answered with confidence. "If she was I don't think I'd be here. I mean, she didn't seem like a killer."

They reached the place where they found the body and Scott started looking around on the ground. "I could've sworn this was it. I saw the body, the deer came running. I dropped my inhaler."

"Maybe the killer moved the body." Stiles answered.

"If he did I hope he left my inhaler. Those things are like eighty bucks."

"Are you sure you even need one anymore? I don't think werewolves have asthma. You haven't needed it since last night."

"I'm not---." Scott began to say before Stiles smacked him on the shoulder to get his attention. Cyrus turned to see where Stiles was looking and noticed Derek standing ominously some yards away from them in a black outfit and leather jacket.

He walked over to them and asked, "What're you doing here? Huh? This is private property."

"Derek. It's me, Cyrus. We were just looking for something. My friend's inhaler."

Derek reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out an inhaler before tossing it to Scott. Without saying another word he turned around to leave.

"Alright, come on, guys, I gotta get to work." Scott said, preparing to leave.

Stiles turned to Cyrus and asked, "Dude. How do you know Derek Hale?"

"His sister, Laura, used to babysit me before the fire. It was her body Scott and I found last night."

"And you were just going to keep that to yourself?"

"I didn't know what to say, but you two go on ahead. I'm going to talk to Derek."

"Dude, no. He could've been the one to... you know."

"No. It wasn't him. Derek's not like that. He needs a friend right now and I need answers."

---

Friday night came sooner than expected. For Stiles and Cyrus it felt like a ticking time bomb with the Full Moon hanging over their heads and Scott in denial over what he had become.

Stiles was searching werewolves in his room when he heard a knock at his door. He closed his laptop and walked to the door to open it. Standing on the other side was a goofy faced Scott and an annoyed looking Cyrus. "Get in. You gotta see this, dude." They entered and he closed the door behind them. "I've been up all night reading. Websites, books. All this information."

"How much Adderall have you had today?" Scott asked.

"A lot. Doesn't matter. Okay, just listen. I know you don't believe Cyrus and I but you two are werewolves. I started doing all of this reading. Do you even know why a wolf howls?"

"Should I?"

"It's a signal, okay? When a wolf's alone, it howls to signal its location to the rest of the pack. So if you two heard a wolf howling maybe it was alerting your bathroom werewolf or a whole pack of them."

"Are you seriously wasting my time with this? You know I'm picking up Allison in an hour." Scott said as he stood up from Stiles's bed to leave.

"I saw you on the field today, Scott. Okay, what you did wasn't just amazing, alright? It was impossible."

"Yeah, so I made a good shot."

"No, you made an incredible shot. I mean, the way you moved, your speed, your reflexes. People can't just suddenly do that overnight. And there's the vision and the senses. And like Cyrus said, you don't need your inhaler anymore."

"Okay! Dude, I can't think about this now. Why don't you harass Cyrus about this?"

"Because I'm not the one in denial about it. I know your bite healed too, Scott. That doesn't happen overnight either." Cyrus interjected.

"And the full moon's tonight. Don't you get it?"

"What are you trying to do? I just made the first line. I got a date with a girl who I can't believe wants to go out with me. Everything in my life is somehow perfect. Why are you trying to ruin it?"

"We're not trying to ruin it, Scott. You need to be aware and we want to make sure you and Allison are safe."

"He's right, Scott. It's not just that the moon will cause you to physically change. It also just so happens to be when your bloodlust will be at its peak."

"Bloodlust?"

"Yeah, your urge to kill."

"I'm already starting to feel an urge to kill, Stiles."

"You gotta hear this." Stiles turned around to reach for a book. "The can change can be caused by anger or anything that raises your pulse. Alright? I haven't seen anyone raise your pulse like Allison does. You gotta cancel this date. I'm gonna call her right now." Stiles got up and went over to Scott's bag to try and get his phone.

Scott grabbed Stiles and pushed him against the wall and lifted his fist to punch him. "Give it to me!"

Cyrus grabbed Scott's fist and glared into his eyes. "Put him down, Scott!"

Scott grunted and let him go before pushing a chair out of the way to release his anger. He started to breathe heavily until it finally hit him what he had been doing. He turned to Cyrus. "Why isn't he worried about you? Why aren't you acting differently?"

"Because I might not just be a normal werewolf. I've been responding to the bite differently. I'm going through the same changes, but I have more control over myself. And if I lose control Ronnie's there to keep me in check."

"Ronnie? What does she have to do with anything?"

Cyrus paused for a moment, unsure if he should answer him. He didn't want to expose Alan by doing so. "She's a Druid. She's the one who helped me understand what I've been going through. She can also calm me down if I do change."

"She's a what? This is just too much to take in right now. I'm sorry, Stiles. I appreciate that you two care about me, but I gotta get ready for that party." He started to walk towards the door. "If I do feel anything happening, I'll leave." He opened the door of Stiles's room and left.

Cyrus turned to Stiles. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. I'm just worried about him. Take care of him tonight, will ya?"

"You know it."

"For some reason he listens to you. Maybe you are different after all."

"Why does that sound like a bad thing?"

I'm sorry for the delay on the Thor post, but I went ahead and moved things along.

Metropolis
Christmas Eve
_{Mentions: @ThatDeercat @Azure Bubbles @Cyrania}

Thor laughed at Zach's jokes and honesty. "That's how it is for all of us when we start out. You have the makings of a great hero. Trust me." Zach reminded him when he first started out secretly patrolling Metropolis in a hoodie. Not exactly sure what he was doing, but knowing that he wanted to help people. Things were a lot simpler then. He wondered how differently things would be had he not been the one to save the plane. Would he have ever received Mjolnir? Would he have met so many other great heroes? He didn't want to think about what his life would have been like. He just knew that he liked where it was heading.

Thor was feeling like he was slowly becoming part of something greater than himself. He had been working as a hero by himself for so long, but working with others truly did something for him. It was like he finally had friends that could understand him. This was his second time doing a team-up and it was thankfully less chaotic than the first time. His attention was mostly on the Green Man. This was their second time working together and he still wasn't keen on introducing himself. He wondered why that was and what he might have been hiding. He felt him touching his mind, but he didn't linger so Thor decided to ignore it for now. From their interactions he didn't seem like an enemy or someone that he'd have to worry about.

When the others mentioned bringing the Toyman to the authorities, Thor shivered as if he were being hit by the night's cold air. He turned to the Green Man. "I love the idea of us being a team, but can you take him into the authorities? I'm still not their best friend right now. I can take the reindeer back to Santa. Before he came here we know Toyman was in the UK. I can get there the fastest and have the reindeer retrace their steps when I get there." He then turned to Starfire and Zach before continuing. "We can meet up at Ace O'Clubs in Hobs Bay when I get back. It's a bar run by my biggest fan and he makes the best hot chocolate. Tell him Thor sent you."

Thor waited for their response before walking over to the sleigh and pulled the Toyman out, dropping him into the snow. He reached out his hand to called for Mjolnir and the trusty weapon flew back into his hand without hesitation. He aimed it at the space in front of the reindeer and opened a portal leading to the UK. He put the hammer next to him on the seat and reached for the reins. "On Rudolph! On Dasher, on Dancer, on Prancer and Vixen, on Comet, on Cupid, on Donner and Blitzen! Let's fly!" He flicked the reins and smiled as the reindeer dashed forward into the portal and pulled him and the sleigh with them. He couldn't believe he was flying Santa's reindeer. Jackee was not going to believe the night he was having.

Himari Tsugikuni

_{@xAlter@Taka@13org@Dane@Thanatos 7@Kpopknower@Redking0380@Randomguy@Lewascan2}

---

Himari was annoyed by the fact that she had to go back to school, even if it was only for a cover. She thought she was done with it already. She hated how much Michikatsu's demons and society were making it impossible for them to exist and do their job. All they were here to do was save people but they can't even do that with the police being run by a literal demon. She was mostly concerned about all of the time school would take away from her and Hanahi. They didn't have much time together in her developmental stages with her accelerated aging. With how intense everything had been lately she felt like she was missing out on her daughter's life.

Her train of thought was interrupted by the appearance of a silver-haired demon slayer detective. She seemed a bit young to have made the rank but Himari didn't care enough to actually question it. If anything, Himari would have preferred to join this unit instead of going undercover as a university student. Despite being labeled as a criminal the former fit her more. Maybe once things settled down and Hanahi was on her throne she'd be able to consider the shift in career.

In but a moment Himari found herself under Takaya's Blood Demon Art. It always intrigued her how similar humans and demons were and all it took was a certain blood type to truly bridge that gap. It only reaffirmed her that it was possible for them to end this centuries long blood war and for demons themselves to stop shedding the blood of innocents. She believed that her daughter could be the one to ensure that both of these things happened and it was her duty to help her.

Himari nodded her head repeatedly before finally vocalizing her answer. "Yes, Takaya-sama. I'll marry you." She reached out her left hand for him to place the ring on her ring finger. She looked at it with a smile and looked into the distance from the tree they rested on.

Himari was unphased by the kill order on her life. She was concerned about the others though. She may have been upset with Tenko, Guen, and the boys for the dumb decisions they made that night, but she didn't want to see them dead. Well, maybe Guen. They wouldn't have even been in that mess if it wasn't for her inability to control herself. "They can try." She said simply. "They'll be lucky if I don't decide to march up to there and kill them myself."

She held back her thoughts from pouring onto her face when Takaya said that she was to meet Guen in four days. From the way he was talking it was clear that he didn't want her to kill her. She couldn't imagine what they'd have to talk about it so instead of ruining the moment with an argument she simply nodded her head to show that she understood. She paused for a moment in thought when Takaya said that he'd kill the higher-ups himself. He was always taking everything on himself. They were similar that way. It's why they understood each other more than anyone else did. "You don't have to take on all of this on your own. You're still young and marriage is partnership. I'm here for you. Let me deal with the higher-ups. It's me they want to kill after all. You worry about the Corps and keeping our heads above water."

Himari petted his hair as he leaned on her shoulder. "It's all going to be okay. Don't let the guilt swallow you. For now forget about the future. Just be here in the present."

---

When they arrived at the beach Himari headed straight for the water. She needed it after her last time in relaxing waters was interrupted by someone spilling blood. It had been a while since she had been to the beach. It was before Hikaru and their sister officially joined the Corps. It was one of the last times they were able to be kids without the weight of the world on their shoulders. Himari most enjoyed the beach at night. She felt it was where the moon and the Earth communicated with the moon controlling the tides.

She wished that Hanahi could be here. She'd love it just as much as her mom. She'd bring her here one day. Hopefully before she got too old to really have that childlike wonder.

Kingdom Hearts: Heroes of Hope

I never got into Star Wars. I only saw the Phantom Menace because child me was obsessed with Queen Amidala. She was fabulous.

@Azure Bubbles

She was, but you should definitely watch the Original Trilogy for Princess Leia.

Kingdom Hearts: Heroes of Hope

@King Kindred R2? Warcriminal? Have you seen his cousin?

As my Star Wars TTRPG group calls him: C1-10P Of The Boreal Valley

@mattmanganon

The Empire has nightmares of Chopper.

Kingdom Hearts: Heroes of Hope

Alias will have notorious war criminal R2D2 as one of his summons.

Kingdom Hearts: Heroes of Hope

Same but I think the more powerful ones should be for KH2+.

Kingdom Hearts: Heroes of Hope

@Daxam The powerful summons, especially if going the priming and semi-priming route should wait until Kingdom Hearts II with them being similar to Drive Forms.

You can have Zac take care of Hades. I think besides the tournament the only other plan is to have Uther Pendragon appear.

Kingdom Hearts: Heroes of Hope

@King Kindred Well, me and Ed got through 1.5 together and i'm planning on getting to the end of Planet 2 soon. Sorry if we jumped the gun a bit.

@mattmanganon

You're good. You can do a third before going to Olympus and make that one go slower. That's what I'm going to do with Alias.
