Chapter 5: You are Wrong

~~Season 1 Episode 5: The Tell~~

~~Stiles~~

My dad and I are in his car eating when he asks with his mouth full of burger "Mm. Did they forget my curly fries?" I tell him looking through the bag "You're not supposed to eat fries, especially the curly ones." 

My dad then states "Well, I'm carrying a lethal weapon. If I want the curly fries, I will have the curly fries." I look at him in disbelief saying, "If you think getting rid of contractions in all your sentences makes your argument any more legitimate, you are wrong." 

He looks at me and I smirk in victory. I take a drink of my soda when the radio sparks to life and I go to grab it, but my dad slaps my hand. "Unit one, do you copy?" 

He then states at me, and I sit back into my chair saying "Sorry." My dad then grabs the radio saying, "Unit one, copy." I start to stuff the fries into my mouth when "Got a report of a possible 187." 

I then say with my mouth overflowing with the fries "A murder?" He starts the car up and we go to the possible 187 scene and when we park my dad says before getting out "Stay here." 

He walks out saying "Paul, let's get this area locked up." I look to see Jackson and I say to no one "Oh, no way." I decide to listen in, and Jackson asks "Why the hell can't I just go home? I'm fine." 

My dad walks up to him saying "I hear ya, but the EMT says you hit your head pretty hard. They just wanna make sure you don't have a concussion." 

Jackson then says "What part of "I'm fine" are you having a problem grasping? Okay, I wanna go home." My dad says, "And I understand that." 

Jackson says making me mad "No, you don't understand, which kind of blows my mind, since it should be a pretty basic concept to grasp for a minimum . . . Wage rent - a - cop like you! Okay, now, I wanna go home!" 

I then hear the gurney and say "Oh, whoa, is that a dead body?" My dad then says as I sit back into the car hiding behind the door "Everybody back up. Back up." 

I then hear Derek talking "Starting to get it?" I realize they must be somewhere close and then I hear Scott say "Uh, I get that he's killing people, but I don't get why. 

I mean, this isn't standard practice, right? We don't go out in the middle of the night murdering everyone, do we?" Derek answers "No. We're predators. We don't have to be killers." 

Scott asks, "Then why is he a killer?" Derek again answers "That's what we're gonna find out." I hear them moving away so I decide to go after wanting to know what they're talking about, so I sneak away through the crowd. 

I follow them all the way back to the old hale house that burned and hear Scott states "You know, I have a life too." Derek then says back "No, you don't." 

Scott yells "Yes, I do! I don't care what you say about him making me his pet or . . ." Derek corrects "Part of his pack." 

Scott then states in a tone that goes with the statement "Whatever. I have homework to do. I have to go to a parent/teacher conference tomorrow because I'm failing chemistry." 

Derek then says with a matter-of-fact tone "You wanna do homework? Or do you wanna not die? You have less than a week until the full moon. You don't kill with him, he kills you." 

Scott then says probably getting fed up with this "Okay, seriously, who made up these rules?" Derek immediately starts talking "It's a rite of passage into his pack." 

Scott then asks sarcasm lacing his tone "You know what else is a rite of passage?" He waits like two seconds before continuing "Graduating from high school. And you don't have to kill anyone to do it! Why can't you just find him yourself? Why can't you just sniff him out when he's a human?"
