Deaton quickly helps Scott with his wound, then Scott quickly hide in the back room as the Chris and another hunter walk. "I'm starting to think I need to buy a more promenaded closed sign." Deaton tells the two when they walk into room, Chris sighs and moves to the side. Gerard walks into the room. "Hello Alan, it's been a while. Last I'd heard you retired." Gerard tells him, Deaton walks back a bit. "Last I'd heard you follow a cods of conduct" Deaton throws back at him, "If you haven't notice this body is one of ours." Chris broke up the fight. "I did, I also notice the gun power residue on the fingertips. So don't assume, I'll be swayed by your philosophy, just cause I'll answer a few question." Deaton tells him.
"He was only 24." Chris shot at him, "Killers come in all ages." Deaton throws back, "All ages, sizes, shapes. It's the last one that concerns us." Gerard states. "How about you tells us what you found." Chris got underway. Deaton walks to the head of the body, "You see this cut right here?" he twists the head, showing them a thin cut right on the back of the neck. "Precise. Almost surgical, but this isn't the wound that killed him, this one had a more interesting purpose." Deaton informs them, "Relating to the spine." Gerard caught on.
"That's right. Whatever made this cut was laced in paralytic toxin, enough to disable all motor functions." he tells them and waves his hand over the claw marks in the chest and stomach, "These are the cause of death, notice the patterns on each?" Deaton points to them, "Five for each finger." Chris states, "Each claw." Gerard corrected him. "As you can see, it dug in and slash upward, eviscerating the lungs and slicing through the bones of the rib cage with ease." Deaton demonstrates. "Have you ever seen anything like this before?" Chris asks him, "No." Deaton answers.
"Any idea at all, what killed him?" Chris asks. "No, but I can tell you, it's fast, remarkably strong, and has the capability to render it's victims essentially helpless within seconds." Deaton informs him. "If you're saying we should be cautious, we get it." Chris tells him.
"I'm saying you should be afraid. Be very afraid, because in the natural world, predator with paralytic toxins use them to catch and eat their prey. This prey wasn't eaten, that means whatever ever killed him only wanted to kill him. In fact, killing may be its only purpose." Deaton warns them. Scott listens to everything, swallowing back a lump, now know what may have happen to Issac father.

"Hey! Hey!" Stiles yells at the man working on fixing his jeep in the garage. "What do you think you're doing. All I need was the starter." Stiles tell him. "Yeah, but it looks alike your whole exhaust system need to be replace." he tells Stiles. "Why do I get the feeling that you're overestimating the damage?" Stiles asks him. "It's probably going to run you over 120 parts and labels." he tells him, "Are you kidding, this thing, doesn't have a catalitic converter. And yes I know what a catalitic converter is." Stiles informs him. "You know what a lib-different subliminal is?" he asks him, "No." Stiles answers him. "Talk anymore and it will be 150." he warns Stiles. "Okay, just finish. I'll be back here. Seeding with bit of rage." Stiles mumbles the last bit.
He touches the door nod and saw that it was cover in slim, "Aw, nice. That's real sanitary. Cwallity establishment you're running here." Stiles shouts out. Walks into the other room, wipes his hand off as he pulls out his phone, then saw a picture of the man when he was younger and played Lacrosse, "Figures." Stiles mumbles to himself, he went to text a message to someone, but his hand froze, refuges to move. He tries again, but still, refuges to move.
Then the phone drops from his hands as the start to shake a little. He looks up at his jeep and saw a reptilian hand with hollow claws appear on his jeep door. "Hey. Hey!" Stiles tries to call out, the creature's tail slice at the back of the man's neck. He collapse into the ground, completely paralyzed. Stiles then too collapse onto the ground, then he crawls to the door, next to his phone and saw that the lift was slowly coming down on the man. "Help me! Help me!" the man calls out. Stiles then slowly tries to diles 911. Stiles closes his eyes and heard the man call out for help no more as the lift stops. Stiles then opens his eyes to see what was happening, then a reptilian face roars at him, Stiles was frighten.
But then a wolf roars at the reptile. Stiles looks over and saw a big black wolf, slowly creep out of the shadows and growl at the reptile, it's eyes glow bright white, like the color of snow. It then retreats from the garage, the wolf walks watches it leave and walks up to Stiles and looks at him with concern.
It frowns sadly, press it's claw, black huge, yet small hand against the glass door. He looks at it with confusion and saw it take off and was gone from the garage.

Stiles walks to The green SUV that Scott was driving and was in the passenger seat. "You okay?" Scott asks him, "Yeah." Stiles mumbles. "You were right, it's not like you, it's eyes were almost like... reptilian. And this wolf came out of nowhere, scaring the thing off." Stiles tells him. "It's eyes were white, bright white and there was something about them." Stiles went on, "What do you mean?" Scott asks him.
"You know when you can see a friend in a Halloween mask, but only their eyes and you feel like you know them, but you can't figure out who it is." Stiles asks him. "Are you saying you know who they are?" Scott asks him, "No. but I think they knew me." Stiles looks at him.

Alice sat on a step above Scott as Stiles came over to them, "I'm so sorry about the other day, I'm trying, we'll get through this. I know because I love you. I love you more then... Oh my god. I can't... you and Allison are going to find a better way to communicate." Stiles throws out, Alice giggles. "Oh come on, you're the only one we can trust. Is she coming to the game tonight?" Scott asks him.
"Yes. Kay, message complete. Alright now tell me about your boss." Stiles tells him. Alice scoot closer, making her legs an arm rest for them. "He thinks that Allison's family keep some kind of records of all the things they hunted. Like a book." Scott informs them. "He probably means a beasteary." Stiles shot out, "What?" Alice asks him. "A beasteary." Stiles said again, Scott laughs a little, "You mean bestiality." Scott states, "Nope, pretty sure he didn't." Alice throws out. "It's like an encyclopedia of mythical creatures." Stiles also throws out.
"How am I the only one that doesn't seem to know anything about this stuff?" Scott asks them, Alice pats his shoulder. "Okay, you two are my best friends, you two are a creatures o the night and it's like a priority of mine." Stiles tells him, Alice smirks at him as Scott nods, "Okay, if we can find it and it can tells us what these things are." Scott states, "And who." Alice adds. "We need that book." Scott, Stiles and Alice say at the same time. They all look at each other, then Stiles took off in one direction as Alice and Scott took off in another.

Scott and Alice were walking through the hall and Stiles runs up to them, "Yes. Seen her grandfather with a book like that." Stiles informs them. "Alright asks her where he keeps it." Scott tells him and Stiles took of running. Alice watches him go and catches up with her brother. "He'll run out of breath soon." Alice mumbles. Scott smiles and swung his arm over her shoulder and pulls her close. She look up at him and giggles to herself.
They walk up to their lockers, garbing their stuff, but as they close them, Stiles slams up against the lockers next to Alice, the twins look at him. Panting like crazy, "She says... has to be... office." he pants, Alice reaches into Scott's locker and gave Stiles the inhaler. And Stiles took off running.
"I swear, you're doing this on purpose." Alice mumbles, Scott looks away with a smirk on his face. Alice looks at him with a smile on her face as she laugh.

Stiles rummages through Gerard office during the Lacrosse game, he groan, pulls out his phone and texts Allison saying nothing's here. Then Erica finds him and drags him to the gym, Derek walks up to them, a basketball in hand, "Stiles." he said. "Derek." Stiles said back. "What did you see at the mechanic's garage?" Derek asks him. "Several alarming EPA violations, that I'm seriously reporting." Stiles throws at him. Derek flicks his claws out and deflates the ball. "Holy god." Stiles mumbles, the flat ball fall to the ground. "Lets try that again." he tells him. Stiles sighs, "Alright, the thing was pretty slick looking, skin was dark, kind of pattern. I think I saw scales and the wolf it was big, kinda thin looking, pure black fur and it's eyes were glowing white, like the color of snow. That good enough, cause I have someone I really need to talk to." Stiles tells him, Derek glares at him.
"Alright, fine, eyes. Eyes are yellowish and silted has a lot of teeth and oh, has a tail, are we good?" Stiles adds, as Derek and Erica look up, "What, wait have you seen them, you have these looks on your face, like you know what I'm taking about." Stiles asks them, then there was a hissing. Stiles turns, looking up and saw the reptile, it roars at him, making Stiles jump back. The reptile jumps down in front of Erica, knocking her off her feet and out cold. "Run!" Derek pushes Stiles out of the way and was suddenly lash at Derek. He quickly turns around and saw that creature backing away slowly, "Derek your neck." Stiles points out, Derek reaches out to his neck, but then starts to feel numb. "Okay, come on." Stiles pulls him along. As they walk pass the pool. Stiles stops as the big black wolf with white eyes was standing in their way.
But a surprise to him, the wolf moves out of their way and growls at the creature. "Thanks." Stiles tells it and carries on. "Hurry. Call Scott." Derek tells him, Stiles reaches into his pocket, pulling out his phone, but drop it. Stiles went to puck it up. "Stiles! Stiles!" Derek shouts at him and falls into the water.
Stiles looks at the pool then at his phone and dives into the pool. Then broke the surface, holding Derek by the waist. "Where they go? Do you see them?" Stiles asks. "No." Derek answers. "Maybe they took off." Stiles states, then the creature hiss as the two in the pool. But the wolf growls at the creature in a threatening way. "Maybe not." Derek states.
~8~8~8~
"Can you get me out of here, before I drown?" Derek asks of him. "You're worried about drowning, you notice the two things out there, sharp teeth and claws, waiting to kill each other or us?" Stiles asks him. "Did you notice I'm paralyzed from the neck down in eight feet of water?!" Derek shot back at him.
"Okay. I don't see them." Stiles mumbles, then swam to his phone. "Wait, wait, wait, stop stop." Derek tells him, Stiles looks at him, follows his gaze and saw the thing circle around them, "What's it waiting for?" Stiles asks him. Derek said nothing as he eyes the thing, it went to the edge of the water, place it's hand in the water, it hiss in displeasure and back away from the pool. "Did you see that, I don't think it can swim." Stiles points out. The wolf roars at the creature, it roars back at the wolf, lashing out at it with it's claws, the wolf looks back at it, and the scratch was gone. "Wait, you saw that right? I think the wolf it immune." Stiles points out.
"Okay, okay. I don't think I can do this much more." Stiles mumbles, looking over to his phone, "No, no, no, no, no. don't even think about it!" Derek tells him, knowing what Stiles was thinking. "Can you just trust me this once?" Stiles asks him, "No!" Derek yells at him, "I'm the one keeping you alive, have you notice that?" Stiles asks him. "Yeah and once the paralytics wears off, who's going to be able to fight that thing? You or me?" Derek asks him. "So that's why I've been holding you up for the pass two hours?" Stiles asks him. "Yep. You don't trust me and I don't trust you. But you need me to survive, which is why you're not letting me go." Derek tells him.
Stiles just glares at him, then throws Derek's arm off of him, "Stiles!" he shouts out, drowning to the bottom of the pool. Stiles swims to him phone, the thing hisses at him, the wolf strikes at it, sending it into the wall, the wolf roars at it and looks at Stiles, giving him an assuring nod, Stiles nods back at it, swimming over to the ledge, grabbing his phone and swimming to the middle of the pool, he quickly diles Scott's number.
"Scott!" Stiles yells, "Can't talk right now." he said and hung up the phone, Stiles looks at it in dis-belief, tosses his phone away and swam down and pulls Derek into his arms, breaking the surface. "Tell me you got him?" Derek asks him, Stiles said nothing.
"I can't stay up any longer, I need something to hold onto." Stiles looks around, his eyes land on the diving board, he swam over to the board, his legs getting weaker. The wolf kept the thing at bay, making sure Stiles makes it; he reaches up, tires to grip the handle, but his hand slips, but him and Derek start to drown, but when Scott reaches in, pulls them both out of the water and roars at the thing, the creature charges at Scott and the wolf ran over to Stiles and Derek. The thing wraps it tail around Scott's ankle and throws him at the mirror, shattering it. Scott grabs a shard of glass, ready for it to attack. But the creature looks at the shard, confused by the refection. It then took off by the ceiling, the wolf follows out the door.
~8~8~8~
Scott and Stiles were in front of the SUV, laptop open and were searching through the beasteary, "Is this even a language? How are we even suppose to find this thing?" Stiles ask Scott, "It's a Kanima." Derek said as he and Erica walk up to them, "You knew the whole time?" Stiles asks him in an unpleasant tone, "No, only when it was confused by it's own refection." Derek states.
"It doesn't know what it is." Scott realizes, "Or who." Derek adds "What else do you know?" Stiles demands of him, "Just stories. Rumors." Derek inserts, "But it's like us?" Scott asks. "A shape-shifter, yes. But it's... it's not right. It's like a..." Derek tries to find the right word for the term. "An abomination." Stiles finishes for him, Derek nods. "And the big wolf, with the bright white eyes, what about that?" Stiles asks, "I don't know, I heard about it twice, first time I saw it." Derek implies. "Great." Stiles mumbles. Then Derek and Erica turn to walk away. "Derek! We have to work together on this maybe even tell the Argents." Scott proposes. "You trust them?" Derek question him.
"Nobody trust anyone, that's the problem. While were here arguing on who's on what side. There something scarier, faster and stronger then any of us is going around and killing people, to top it off, an even more stronger and faster monstrous wolf, is going to kill as well and we don't know anything about them." Scott points out the facts. "I do know one thing, when I find them, I'm going to kill them." Derek promises them and took off, Erica went with him.
"Scott there is one thing I know about wolf." Stiles tells him, Scott looks at him, "It won't kill anyone, because it's driven to do the opposite, it's protecting people." Stiles informs him, "How?" Scott asks him. "In the garage when the Kanima was in my face, it protected me and again at the pool, it was keeping the Kanima at bay and away from Derek and I." Stiles went on. "So this wolf is on our side, but doesn't know it." Scott sums up. "I don't think it even know who it is." Stiles states, "But I do know one thing, it will kill if one of us get hurt." Stiles add, Scott lets out a frustrated sigh.
