Scott and Theo

**The relationship between True Alpha Werewolf Scott McCall and Werewolf-Werecoyote Chimera Theo Raeken**

Theo and Scott were childhood friends who first met in 2003/2004 during fourth grade until Theo's family moved away from Beacon Hills following the death of his sister, Tara. Eight years later, in late summer 2012, Theo returned to Beacon Hills for his senior year of high school, claiming that he had heard Scott had become a True Alpha and wanted to join his pack, though Stiles remained dubious about Theo's true intentions.

Theo was quickly capable of gaining Scott's trust by recounting an intimate childhood memory, where Scott comforted him through an asthma attack. He went on to make his point that Omegas would not survive long without a system of fellow packmates and he immediately proved his worth to Scott and his pack in many clutch situations, such as using his belt as torquinet for Lydia's wounds at the hands of Kanima-Werewolf Chimera Tracy Stewart and rescuing Scott's Beta Liam Dunbar and his girlfriend Hayden Romero.

However, in the mid-season finale, it was finally revealed that Theo was the first Chimera ever created, specifically Werewolf-Werecoyote hybrid, and a henchman of the Dread Doctors. He had planned to split up Scott's pack, steal Scott's True Alpha powers, and then the pack for himself. Unfortunately for Theo, his plans went awry when Liam did not succeed in killing Scott, which would have allowed Theo to steal the status from Liam, and he ended up killing Scott in a petty tantrum, with him not being able to absorb his Alpha powers. He realized that he had to make his own pack from scratch and resurrected four of the Chimeras that were viewed as "failures," before focusing on a new goal-- killing the newly-resurrected Beast of Gevaudan and take its powers for himself.

Theo eventually discovered Scott had been brought back to life and though he knew Scott would never trust him again after what broke out between them, Theo informed him that they would have to team up against against their mutual enemies-- the Dread Doctors and The Beast. Theo would often smirk about the nature of his and Scott's relationship, replying that they are merely “working through some issues” when questioned about it.

Nearly the end of the season, Theo's "packmates" either ultimately elected to join to Scott's pack or were killed by Theo himself to make himself more powerful. Scott had managed to undermine Theo's plot to steal the powers of the Beast by placing Deucalion among Theo's ranks and feeding him false information. Once the Beast was destroyed, Theo became enraged and attempted to electrocute Scott and his pack in retribution, but was quickly put down by Kira Yukimura, who opened up a portal from which a phantom of Theo's dead sister emerged and proceeded to drag him into an underground prison. Despite the fact that Theo had hurt Scott the most out of everyone present, it was Scott that he called out to for help as he was being dragged away. Scott moved forward in a knee-jerk reaction, but then stopped himself and Theo was sent to another dimension.

The two would not see each other again until nearly four months later, when Liam and Hayden released Theo from his prison so he could use the powers that he stole from his "Beta," Josh Diaz, to help them lure one of the Ghost Riders, who had begun to erase Beacon Hills' citizens one by one, with one of them being Stiles. Although he had lost the powers of both Josh and Tracy, the Dread Doctors taught him a great deal of the Wild Hunt. Scott refused to accept Theo's assistance and reminded Liam of every misdeed committed by the Chimera, only for the latter to convince him the otherwise by reminding him that they should use every person and tool at their disposal to bring Stiles and the other residents back. Theo's knowledge of the Wild Hunt allowed the McCall Pack members to realize that Garrett Douglas, a Lowenmensch and a former prisoner of the Dread Doctors, desired the WIld Hunt as his army. During a final showdown against Douglas and his lackeys, Theo attempted to address himself as a member of Scott's pack, only for Malia to deny it. Fortunately, they managed to banish the Ghost Riders and return Stiles and every other citizen to Beacon Hills while Douglas became a member of the Wild Hunt himself.

Three months later, Theo aided Scott and the others in their conflict against Gerard Argent, his protegée Tamora Monroe and their Hunter Army slowly growing in numbers. They began murdering several supernaturals allied with the McCall Pack, such as Satomi Ito and her entire pack and even succeeded in killing Deucalion. Throughout this conflict, Theo proved to be changing into a better person by helping in protecting the last two members of Satomi's pack and preventing Liam from taking a life, folllowing Scott's code of conduct of not killing unless absolutely inevitable to the letter. These changes convinced Scott to send Theo to protect Liam, his mother Melissa, Mason Hewitt and Corey from the Hunters in the hospital. By the end of the series, Theo was shown to have become a more selfless and empathetic man as well as one of the McCall Pack's greatest allies and protectors, as stated by Scott himself.
