ANOTHER STORY ANOTHER TIME

CHAPTER TWENTY NINE * TWO STONES

Pavel looked at the General while he grinned and shook his head, 

"But is he capable of heading up a new unit?" The General turned to Pavel, 

"I hear he is more than capable." Pavel stood up and walked to the door, sliding his badge he turned to look at the General one last time. 

"Two birds with one stone never put it past you if you want something done." The two men came out of the S.I unit as Pavel headed down the steps to the main office as the General walked towards his office, 

"Sergeant Baloch, have you heard from Corporal Perry yet?" Baloch looked up from his stack of paperwork, 

"No sir, and she hasn't texted or sent an email." He exclaimed as he checked both screens on his computer and phone. Pavel came out of kitchen, 

"I thought she was your best soldier ever?" Lasko didn't give in to the urge to flip Pavel off, he wasn't sure if the man was hazing him or concerned. Baloch lifted his head from his work again, pushing the button on his earpiece he looked up at the General, 

"Sir there is a Liam Dunbar on line one for you." The General turned to Pavel, 

"Dunbar?" Pavel looked at him and grinned, 

"He is one of the young men who rescued your son, your new civilian clerks with the S.I.Unit." The General paused then walked over to Pavel who was by a phone, 

"Is he the young one with the twins?" Pavel acknowledged his statement as true, 

"I want to put him through a Micro Boot Camp. See if I can get him in a military capacity. Plus, it could get him set up for life with benefits for those two kids" Pavel looked at him, 

"Sir he is waiting on the phone." Snapping out of it, 

"Shit." The General snatched up the phone. "This is General Lasko, what can I do for you Mr. Dunbar?" Liam was standing with Melissa at the E.R. desk,

 "Sir I'm at Beacon Hills Memorial, I regret to report that Corporal Perry was attacked this morning by an unrecognizable Sup. Her condition is stable, we were able to perform a procedure in the field that saved her life, but it was close, we had to get her consent before we proceeded." Lasko took the news rather calmly, but his nervousness was beginning to show. 

"Okay son, as you were, could you stop by the office and fill out a report while the incident is fresh in your mind?" Liam figured that would be the case, "Oh and Dunbar was there anyone else with you?" Liam grinned and looked right at Ethan, 

"Yes Sir, Staff Sergeant Steiner was present as well, with Sergeant Stilinski, and Sergeant Lasko." Ethan looked at Liam pissed, as Melissa laughed. "Have Steiner report to the office with you." Liam rolled his eyes, "Yes Sir we will be there soon." Ethan smacked the back of Liam's head, "Really did you have to give me involved in this, it's not like I'm going to be filling out paperwork for the rest of my life now!"

Lasko hung up the phone and turned to go to his office. 

"Good morning General." Michael said, as he and Stiles walked towards him.

 "Okay fellas what is Corporal Perry's condition?" Stiles looked at the General, 

"Sir, I was able to save Perry, but I had to use an unconventional method." The General looked at him, 

"And that was???" Michael could feel Stiles's nervousness, 

"He gave her the bite, but only after he determined she was indeed dying, and she begged him for it."  The general stood there a moment. 

"I guess this is why I needed the best to run this Unit, Good work Stilinski." he patted Stiles on the shoulder and gestured for them to follow him. "Gentleman, I have a meeting in ten minutes, so in the meantime, could you take these requisitions and this book and see what supplies we are gonna need in the S.I. Unit. office." Stiles took the pile of papers out of the Generals hands, 

"Yes sir, but there are several items we need to req. as well, um, well sir nonmilitary grade." Pavel interrupted,

 "Come on we can have Chris email the specs on those items and put in for a military version unclassified through one of his friends at the U.S.D.D.." The three men entered the office as Derek entered the main entrance doorway, Lasko hurries him into his office as Stiles walks out to get paperwork from his vehicle as he walked by the General's office, he thought he smelled a familiar scent but dismissed it as he walked on. Upon retrieving the folder, Stiles reenters the building. Pavel looked up, 

"Here are the specs for the ultrasonic emitters and a few other items, and by the way guys, I heard you rescued Corporal Perry from an Unidentifiable Sup." Stiles looked at him and nodded. "How did you find out so quickly?" Pavel looked blank, "Grape vine, as you say it, he and Steiner are on their way in to write up a report. Stiles shook his head back and forth, 

"I Should probably get all my old notebooks with the drawings and notes from past creatures and sups we have faced; we can get them into my new computer program. Stiles walked out of the room again with Michael this time. 

"Thank you." Stiles whispered to Michael, 

"For what Sarge?" Stiles smiled his crooked smile, 

"For just being you." he effortlessly intertwined their pinkies, then a jolt of energy threw Stiles and Michael opposite directions to the ground. Pavel helped Stiles get up, he was the closest of the two men. Then he helped Michael up. 

"Do you mind telling me what that was all about." Stiles sat down on the top step as Michael sat next to him, Pavel stepped between the two men to stand on the steps below them so he could see their faces. Stiles looked at Michael then Pavel, 

"We have no clue, sometimes when we touch, we get shocked by static electricity." Pavel looked at them both,

 "That my friends was not static electricity, that charge repelled you."

As the three men looked at each other, the Generals office door opened, and Derek led the General out to the hallway behind the three soldiers, Stiles and Michael both jumped up as the General gave them a strange look. 

"I'll explain to you in private." Michael said as Derek walked by. 

"Stiles." Derek said in a mysterious way even for him. 

"Derek." Stiles said as the man continued down the steps and walked out the building without even glancing back. Stiles turned back around to look at General Lasko.

 "I'll explain his presence after I speak with Dunbar and Steiner." Stiles stood there a second, then turned to look at the General, 

"Sir if this is a S.I. Unit incident, then shouldn't both Michael and myself be present?" Lasko looked at his son the Stiles then back to his son, 

"Well Mikey you were 100 percent correct, he does think things through on the fly." Stiles looked at Michael, his father's nickname irked Michael then he turned to Lasko, 

"Sir" The General patted him on the back, "Come on Mieczyslaw let's get the room ready." Michael stood there and laugh as Stiles frowned at the mention of his name."
