   Summary

   CONTAINS SEASON 5 SPOILERS

   Will’s too exhausted for this. For all of this. His newfound powers leave him overwhelmed. Thankfully, Mike is there for him when the aftermath of his power is too much.

   What happens though when Will finds one of his eyes to be completely changed? That eye isn’t his anymore…

    

   This story follows the Will loses an eye theory. It most likely won’t happen this way, but I liked this story’s idea that I had. I hope you enjoy :)
