"Scott, run!"
The sound of people moving throughout the woods could be heard for a hundred yards, even though the werewolves could move faster and with no sound.
"I can't find her!" Scott replied.
Derek growled as he jumped over a fallen tree. "That's the whole point. We're trying to find her when she disappears. Now move!"
Scott picked up his pace and moved into the woods.

Sam sat in the trees watching the others search for her. Their training days were going great. Today was the day when she decided what she was going to do. Laura had been missing for a week and a half with no leads. They already knew that the alpha was working with a whisperer. What they needed to know was where they were and how long it would take them to get to her.
She shifted her stance and leapt to another tree limb. The laser tag gun she held was quiet because she hadn't turned it on. They were using them instead of regular guns because they were less deadly. They also helped with target practice.
She could feel Stiles out there. He was waiting on her to make a sudden move so he could pick her off. Chris and Allison were out there moving with Derek and Scott, another set of laser tag guns in their arsenal.
Sam had already worked with them in the hand to hand combat situation. Nine times out of ten that worked but whisperers were different kind of people. They were unpredictable and that could be deadly.
Someone else was in the woods. Sam gave up her position but luckily Stiles didn't see her. She moved into the area she felt the disturbance. As she walked quietly, she kept her senses open. The others weren't even close.
Someone moved and she moved with them.
Obviously this person knew how to move so Sam took to the trees again. Her speed helped her keep up with the person. When she was directly above her, she dropped.
Right on top of Sadie.

"We lost her." Scott said. He was bent over trying to catch his breath. He had never had to do this before and he was figuring out it was a lot harder than he realized.
"Will she be okay alone?" Allison asked. "She did just have surgery."
"She can handle herself. Scott, you didn't get her on the sensor?" Derek asked.
"No. I didn't pick up anything. She's gone off the grid." Stiles replied. He dusted the dirt and leaves off his clothing and braced the gun on his shoulder. "This isn't good, right?"
"Not at all."

"You can't do this!" Sadie complained as Sam hauled her through the woods
"Like hell I can't." Sam came through the clearing where the others were assembled. She knew she had been gone a long while but it was worth it. Derek stood up as she tossed Sadie at their feet.
"What the hell's going on?" Stiles asked as he went to touch his girlfriend.
Sam stopped him. "Leave her alone."
"She's my girlfriend."
"She's also the informant we've been looking for."
Stiles sat down in the leaves with a look of shock. "Why?"
"Derek Hale's daughter is a natural. She already proves it after being in this world a month. The Alpha wanted her as her own daughter." Sadie said.
"So you became the informant." Chris deduced.
"And I got paid for it. I was to become friends with someone close to Sam and Derek. Once I did that, it was only a matter of time before I could get the close up. But Derek was so damned protective I couldn't get that close. Then he allowed us all in his house. It was a perfect opportunity."
"You took my daughter for money?" Derek asked. He clenched his fists.
"I let someone else take her. I didn't do it."
"It doesn't matter!"
Sam pushed Derek out of their circle for him to cool off. He looked at her. "Go." He walked away without a fight. She turned her full attention on Sadie, kneeling so she could see her mouth when she spoke. "You listen to me. You go to that Alpha and you tell her I'm coming after her and when I do, none of her pack is going to be left alone."
"You won't get close." Sadie argued.
"Don't even tempt me, girl. I can kill you right now and no one would ever find you." She sliced the bonds and shoved her. "Get out of here."
Sadie looked at Stiles. "You're going to let her talk to me this way?"
Stiles lifted his head."Just get out of here, Sadie." He watched her walk away from him. "I had no idea, Sam."
Sam shook her head in response. Chris looked at her. "What are you going to do?"
"She's going to lead us to the Alpha." She replied.
"How so?"
Sam's eyes turned sinister. "I have my ways. We'll give it a few days then we move on her. I'll let you know when we move out and then let you plan the attack. Derek, let's go."
They all spaced out for the next few days.
