The wolf in me

Chapter 19 – Walking the dog.

No One's pov

After the conference call, Tori and Jade rushed to Tori's house where a hastily organized meeting was to take place. At least 30 werewolves and the local pack leader, an auto mechanic named Kevin, were present to organize search efforts.

Jade gave a small speech stressing the urgency of the situation. But at the same time, she stressed that we try to be as subtle as possible, as they didn't want to tip their hand. She was confident and spoke with almost a swagger. Halfway through the speech Tori realized Jade was probably just imitating someone from a war movie. But being a superb actress pulled off her performance flawlessly. But her goal which was to inspire both motivation and confidence, was successful.

A huge map of the city was placed on a table with a mark for each last known location of all the newly reported missing. The missing were from all over the city, but there were three areas where there were heavier concentrations of missing. Tori's father and some others with previous military experience divided the city into search grids. Various grids were assigned to different teams. Jade studied the map and picked an area with almost no missing sandwiched between two areas of heavy missing. The neighborhood itself was partially lower income residential and Industrial.

"Why did you pick that area, Jade?" Asked Tori.

Jade looked at Tori with a half smirk. "How does the saying go? Dog's don't shit where they eat or something like that. So what's your brilliant plan?"

Tori smiled. "Well in our wolf form, our sense of smell is far superior. We'll pick up a vampire at least a block away. But us walking around as wolves would sort of stick out. But what don't people pay much attention to? Someone walking their dog perhaps."

Jade's smirk widened as she motioned for Tori to come closer. "You do realize that one of us will have to be parading around the city with a dog collar and leash and it ain't going to be me?"

Tori just laughed.

"What's so funny Vega?" Jade said with an odd look.

Tori chuckled again. "That means you get to hold the bag of poop, otherwise it won't look real."

Jade frowned. "I hate you."

Before they left, Tori's dad handed them a pair of funny looking binoculars.

"What's this daddy?"

"Something you may need. Night vision binoculars, courtesy of the LAPD."

Jade examined them. "Who ever said diamonds were a girl's best friend."

After stopping at a pet store where the appropriate supplies were purchased, the pair went to their search area and prepared. Tori stripped down and transferred into a wolf. A sweat suit and sneakers were kept in a backpack with wooden stakes and holy water.

So Jade and Tori set off on their "Walk". To anyone passing by, it just looked like someone walking a very large dog. Much to Jade's severe annoyance, Tori added some realism by crapping at one point on the grass as they walked through a park.

"OH No, Don't you think I'm going to pick that up Vega! You add any more realism, I'm going to see to it you sleep in a dog house, because you won't sleep next to me." Jade angrily spat out.
