Marisa walked into the sheriffs office to see Derek and Argent stood with the sheriff. Derek sighed, opening his arms as Marisa walked over and hugged him
"U alright?" He asked her. Marisa pulled away
"The dang thing was ab to drill into my head. Stiles had no choice but to give in" Marisa answered with a worried expression on her face.
"We're gonna figure it out" Derek assured her. Marisa nodded as she turned to look at the sheriff
"Why r we here, sheriff?" She asked
"The specialist I saw in LA told me the thing that every doctor says when he's trying to avoid a lawsuit-- "We can't say for sure." And then, I spoke with Melissa." He spoke. He laid some brain scans on the table for the others to see "These are brain scans-- my wife's, and Stiles'. I knew they were similar, but those are the same. Exactly the same"
"And I'm guessing this isn't possible?" Derek asked
"Not even remotely." The sheriff shook his head
"So, the trickster is still playing tricks." Chris stated
"But why this trick?" Marisa asked
"When I was in the Army, an officer told me, "If you want to defeat your enemy, you don't take away their courage-- you take away their hope."" The sheriff told them
"You don't look like a man who gives up hope easily." Chris told him
"But Stiles might." Marisa spoke and the sheriff nodded in agreement
"If this thing inside him... if it's using his mother's disease as some sort of psychological trick, then this isn't just a fight for his body. It's also a fight for his mind. Right?" The sheriff asked
"You know, he's left people severely injured." Chris spoke
"And others severely dead." Derek added
"But it wasn't him" Marisa pointed out
"That's why I need the three of you." The sheriff told them "I need people who are experienced in this kind of thing. I need you to help me stop him."
"And by stop him, you mean trap him" Chris corrected and the sheriff nodded.
"This is everything non-lethal I could find." Allison spoke to the group as they all stood in chriss office
"Take all of it." Chris told her and Allison nodded"What's the plan, here?" The sheriff asked
"Our best shot right now is for Derek and Marisa to try to pick up Stiles' scent at Eichen House-- especially if he went through something stressful there." Chris answered
"Should all four of us be going to the same place?" The sheriff asked
"Where else has Stiles been showing up?" Chris asked
"School... the hospital..." Marisa listed
"Okay, hold on-- we did this already. He disappeared, we started looking for him... then walked right into a trap at the hospital." Derek spoke
"He's getting us to repeat the same moves." Chris realized
"So, what do we do? Wait for him to come to us?" Allison asked
"We can't. Not if the Oni find him when the sun goes down." Derek answered
"Scott's working on that right now with Kira." Marisa told them
"That's the problem-- we're all trying to outfox the Fox." Chris spoke
"Listen... I'll understand if anyone wants to back out." The sheriff told them.
