Chris opened the door to Scott, Stiles, Sam and Derek. The three S's weren't happy but Scott at least said hello. Derek shook his hand, a sign that they were on the same side for now. Sam gave him the same courtesy, something she wouldn't have done.

"Chris, I have to say something." She said as they were walking to the study. He nodded. "I respect you for the man you are, a family man, but I don't like what you do. But I will put that on the back burner for the time being for the sake of my daughter."

He turned to her. "You're very brave. I admire that. I won't double cross you while we work together."

"That's all I ask." They came into the library where Kate and Allison were already standing. "Hi, Allison." Allison came across the room and hugged her tightly. She nodded when they looked at each other. Then Sam looked up. "Kate."

"Sam."

"Ladies, let's shake hands and make nice for the time being." Grudgingly the women shook hands. "Thank you. Now, tell us what's going on."

Derek relayed the entire scenario once again to everyone. Stiles, who had first heard the entire story, shook his head from all the information. After a minute or two he started humming some Disney song. Scott glanced back at him but didn't otherwise say a word.

"You have all the information?" Kate asked. She was finally in on the scheme.

"Yes."

"And you're sure you couldn't find any markings of how the kidnapper got into your house?" Derek shook his head. "What kind of werewolf are you? We all know you're the best trackers in the world."

"They had to be using a whisperer." Sam said. Well, she actually mumbled it.

"What's a whisperer?" Scott asked. He had heard her because he was standing beside her.

She looked over at him. "A human who has the ability to wipe all scent or tracks away."

"A psychic?" Allison asked.

"In a way. I've only me two in my life and both were in their infancy. This one must be really strong to expel any evidence of the kidnapper's theft."

"Is there any way you can find the connection?" Chris asked.

Sam lifted her gaze to his. "Why do you think I can?"

"You know about it and you know what they do. My best guess is your something like them and you don't even know it. Is there something you can do?" Derek and Sam looked at each other then, a silent message going between them. "So you can do something. What is it?"

"She can heal." Derek said.

"And I have extraordinary senses and super speed." Sam added.

"No wonder I couldn't keep up." Kate said.

"You wouldn't have been able to anyway."

"Ladies." Chris warned as the women shared a look. When they had settled down, he looked back at Sam. "Can you take a look at the area around your house and see if you sense something?"

"I don't think that's a good idea." Derek said.

"That's not your decision." Sam replied. "Stiles, you drive."

Stiles opened his mouth to say something, thought better of it and closed it again. He followed Sam out silently as she walked past him out the front door.

Sam stood in the front yard of her house with her eyes closed. It was a good time to be deaf. She couldn't hear the others as they talked. And she knew they were talking, mainly Kate. She could feel them; Derek's brooding stance, Allison and Scott's clinginess, Stiles' not so comfortability, Chris's curiosity and Kate's petulance. It was all there in black and white.

Then she felt it. Something that was not normal that she had never felt before. It looked like a thin blue line that ran from her feet into the woods.

"It can't be." She whispered. She followed the line into the woods. It was present in her mind but not on the earth. When it stopped she kneeled. "Tire tracks. They brought a Land Rover through here to make a getaway."

"How did they get to the house without us noticing?" Derek asked. He made sure he was right in front of her before he spoke.

"They used ley lines."

"As in magic ley lines?" Stiles asked. He started the get excited.

"No, not magic ley lines. It's an impulse given off. It's how I snuck up on Derek. Once emitted they can't be taken back and aren't easy to follow if they disappear. The fact that this ley line is still visible a week later means the whisperer we're dealing with is very strong."

"Is there any way we can take him or her out?"

Sam smiled and looked at Stiles. With a motion of her head, he ran back to his car. A few minutes later he came back with a huge black bag. Sam unzipped it and laid out her weaponry.

"A bullet works real well at times like this and our best bet would be a sniper and a few good hand guns."

Kate smiled. "Girl packs some hardware. I'll take the sniper rifle." When she reached for it, a hand reached out and grabbed hers. She looked up. "Big guns are for little boys."

Stiles smiled unhappily. "This is my rifle. See the inscription on the end? It's mine. Sam gave it to me for my birthday and I've been training."

Sam smiled. "I have my own sniper. Who do you think took out your guys a year ago?" When Kate stood, Sam stood as well while Stiles zipped the bag back up. "I prefer to fight hand to hand. It's what I'm trained at and it also doesn't hinder me when I run."

Chris looked at everyone. "We'll have to train everyone. You know the most about this person. We'll follow your lead in this."

Derek touched Sam on the shoulder. She turned to him. "Can you do this?"

She nodded. "I have to, for our sakes."

"We'll have a few days to get some Intel. Kate, call your connections and see if there are any female alphas in the vicinity. If so, try to get a counsel with them. If not, we'll send Sam and Derek in. there the parents of the missing child. They'll do what they can to get information."

"When shall we meet again?"

"You have till the weekend to get your information. We reconvene on Sunday."

Everyone agreed and packed up to get started on their new adventure.
