Florence straightens up. Chris grabs Scott and starts explaining what he has to say to the police. Florence goes over to the rest of the group, explaining exactly what Chris is telling Scott.

Everyone is just nodding solemnly. No one has the energy or motivation to say anything.

After the police station, Chris, Isaac and Florence make their way into The Argent/Hale home.

"I appreciate the concern" Chris says to the teen. Florence is already sitting on the couch, her head in her hands. "But you don't have to stay. We'll be alright. We've dealt with this before. I have a capacity and an ability to compartmentalize my emotions"

Isaac sobs quietly. "I don't" he whispers out

Florence looks up at that, seeing how broken the young teen is. "oh Isaac" she calls him over. He slowly makes his way over to Florence, sitting next to her and holding onto her for dear life as he sobs.

Florence looks at Chris, who is trying so hard not to break down right now. He leaves the room, shutting the bedroom door behind him as he enters it.

An hour later, Isaac is sitting in Allison's bedroom, talking with Chris.

Florence is sitting in the living room still, not wanting to move. She can't even bring herself to cry anymore. Isaac and Chris walk through the living room to go into the garage, looking at her before she waves them off. She could tell they had figured something out, she couldn't distract them from that.

"Stay here, please" Chris says

"Chris, wait-" she's cut off by Chris rushing away.

Isaac and Chris rush out of the house, Florence only being able to hear the words "silver" and "oni". before getting a call from Derek about coming to the school.

She gets to the school in record time, helping Derek, Ethan and Aiden with attacking and killing the oni.

The oni are all dead, but not before one stabs Aiden, the same way they did Allison.

The doors to the school open, Scott, Stiles, Lydia, Isaac and Kira pile out and stand there as Ethan sits with Aiden.

Florence feels her emotions catch up with her. Tears stream down her face at the two lives lost in the last 24 hours. Allison and Aiden.

The fight is over. The Nogitsune trapped and sealed back in the Nemeton.

Allison's funeral is a few days later. Basically the whole town shows up for it. Chris doesn't cry the whole time, instead just sitting there with a blank look on his face while holding Florence's hand, who can't stop crying.
