"I think I found something," Stiles spoke up as soon as Scott and Alex rejoined him, their minds still puzzling over the fact that Malia was a werecoyote.
Looking towards Stiles, Alex added. "So did we."
And with that, Stiles was back tracking with Scott and Alex in tow. All three teenagers had found something of use - if you considered a nasty coyote den important.
Stiles crouched down in front of the rock opening, shining his flashlight within the confined space. He then crawled in, Scott and Alex had been quick to follow.
Alex had been a little reluctant, something in the back of her mind was screaming at her not to go in there, that it was wrong to invade the coyote's den. But they were trying to help Stiles' dad solve one more case while he still held the title as Sheriff.
As it turned out, Agent McCall, Scott's father, had been assigned to investigate Sheriff Stilinski - searching for good enough reasons to have him impeached. Carter already though Scott's father was a dick, from what Stiles had told her, but that just proved her opinion.
"It's a coyote den," Stiles explained, allowing the beam of light to shine upon the young girl's belongings.
"Werecoyote," Alex corrected.
Stiles reached out, grabbing the small blue winter-jacket lying in the den, lifting it up and holding it out for Scott and Alex to see. "You see this? This is Malia's. Remember, it's the same one she was wearing in the photo."
The three of them all huddled around the object in question, they were silent for a moment.
"We shouldn't be in here," Scott voiced Alex's thoughts and she nodded in agreement as Stiles turned to look at them.
"What do you mean?"
"She's not going to come back now," Alex explained, her eyes widening. "We just invaded her home." Glancing back toward her friends, she added, "Our scent's going to be everywhere - I can smell them now."
Stiles furrowed his brows. "If she's not going to come back here, where's she going to go?"
"I don't know."
"Can you track her now?" Stiles asked, realizing that now they were actually inside Malia's den and that her scent must be flooding the den as of right now. "You think you got her scent?"
