Fairy Tales Exist (Teen Wolf)

suit up

I finally caught up to Scott. He was standing still at the ledge of Beacon Hills. I look over the hill and see Argent standing right in front of me a couple of feet away. Scott, Isaac and Derek were standing in front of him.

"Nope. They're yours. You trampled Cora's as soon as you walked over here." Argent says. I walk up beside him as everyone's eyes go wide.

"Lexy, what are you doing here?" Isaac asked.

"Heard you guys needed some help." I wink at them.

"Deaton said," Scott tries to speak but I cut him off.

"I know what he said but Peter told me everything. That Boyd and the other have gone savage. You need me." I insisted.

"She's right. You'll need her. You will need all the help you can get." Argent looks at me as I nod my head at him. Finally something I can agree with him on.

"And your abilities?" Derek asked. I let my purple eyes glow as I raise my hands up around me. Not even thinking twice the objects around Argent float in the air.

"I think she's got this." Isaac smirks as I set the objects back down.

"Listen, I know the three of you are focusing half your energy on resisting your own urges under the full moon, but that puts you at a severe disadvantage to Boyd and Cora, who have fully given in. They put the pedal to the floor where you three are barely hitting the speed limit." Argent tells them. Cora?

"So what do we do?" Derek asked.

"Focus on your sense of smell. Actual wolves are known to track their prey by up to a hundred Miles a day by scent. A trained hunter can use scent to track them. If the wind is with them, wolves can track a scent by a distance of two Miles, which means we can draw them to us... Or into a trap." Argent throws rope at Scott.

"Full moon does give us one advantage. They'll have a higher heat signature, which makes them easier to spot with infrared. Alexis has her eyes." Argent throws them some night vision goggles. My eyes flash purple with a smirk on my face.

"Thanks, but I've got my own." Derek flashes his red eyes as I roll mine.

"Just remember, we're not hunting wild animals. Underneath those impulses are two intelligent human beings. Don't think they can't rely on that human side. It's suppressed, but it's there, reminding them how to mask their scent, how to cover their tracks, how to survive." Argent finishes his speech as we walk over to ledge of the hill we were on.

"When's the last time you saw your sister?" Argent asked.

"Sister?" I look at the boys.

"Nine years. I thought she died in the fire." Derek says.

"Cora my little sister. She's alive." Derek looks at me as I crack my neck. He never told me about her. Then again he thought she was dead and our relationship didn't last that long.

"Do you feel like you have a lock on her scent?" Argent asked Derek as he shakes his head.

"Scott, how confident are you in your skills?" Argent turns to Scott.

"Honestly, most of the time, I'm trying not to think about all the things I can smell." Scott says.

"All right. The problem is when they breach the woods and hit the residential area. Once they're past the high school, they're right in the middle of beacon hills." Argent tells us.

"They're not gonna kill everything they see, are they?" Isaac asked.

"No. But there is an important difference to recognize. Wolves hunt for food. At a certain point, they get full. But Boyd and Cora are hunting for the pleasure of the kill, for some primal apex predatory satisfaction that comes from the ripping of warm bodies to bloody shreds. And who knows when that need gets satiated?" Argent says.

"We can't kill them." Scott states.

"What if we can't catch 'em?" Derek says.

"Then maybe we just need to contain them." Argent thinks.

"I can do it but both of them on the full moon, Im gonna need a room. It might get a little messy." I smirked.

"There's no one in the school at night, is there?" Argent asked.

"You want to trap them inside?" Derek looks at us.

"If there's somewhere with a strong enough door, no windows or access to the outside." Argent points out.

"What about the boiler room? It's just one big steel door." Isaac suggested.

"If its one door then I can contain them in that easily." I nod my head.

"You're sure the school's empty?" Argent asked.

"It has to be. There can't be anyone there this late, right?" Scott looks at us. Well, there was that one time the janitor was there. 

"These are ultrasonic emitters. It's one of the tools we use to corral werewolves, pushing them into a direction we want them to run. Gives off a high-pitched frequency that only they can hear." Argent presses the button.

"God, no kidding!" The boys hold their ears. Argent turns the thing off.

"Can I borrow that?" I point at the emitter. Argent stares at me for a few seconds.

"No." He shakes his head and passes a few emitters to us. Darn.

"How about this one?" He pulls out a metal ball. The same one from when Kate and Allison trapped me.

"No. No. No." I back away from Argent as the three werewolves stare at me. As I was backing away I trip on a branch but crawled my way away from Argent.

"She's traumatized. What's that?" Scott asked looking at the metal ball. Isaac walks over to me unsure of my panic expression.

"This is one of my favorite Guardian catchers. Press this button here it will release two small metal plates as they clasp onto a Guardian's wrist or ankles letting off electrical shock waves. Electricity is one of the Guardians weakness. Every hunter should have one just in case you run into a Guardian." Argent smirks at me as he shows the metal ball off to the guys. He then puts it away as Isaac helps me up off the ground.

"These are gonna drive them to the school?" Derek asked hold the emitter.

"The emitters are and then it's up to you to get them into the basement." Argent says.

"Does anyone else want to rethink the plan where we just, uh, kill 'em?" Isaac asked.

"It would be easier." I weigh my options.

"It's going to work. It'll work." Scott tells us. For some reason I don't feel convinced.
