Tsume: Ghost, thank you for coming. I really need you to be here.

Balto: What's this meeting about?

Tsume: It's about what happened to Doramis and Mr. Souza.

Tsume: I'm almost certain Mr. Souza was murdered.

Ruby: You don't mean by Balto?

Balto: That was an accident.

Ruby: You still put him in the hospital and you're supposed to have more control.

Balto: Someone I loved was attacked. You try keeping control during something like that.

Tsume: Stop arguing. We're on the same side here.

Ruby: Why do you think Mr. Souza was murdered?

Tsume: Because last time I talked to Molly, she said he was making a full recovery.

Tsume: Doramis got attacked for a reason.

Tsume: I think she saw who did it.

Balto: Great.

Balto: So there is a murderer in our town.

Ghost: Really?

Ghost: We have a killer in town?

Tsume: I believe so.

Tsume: Were you all at the hunt that night?

Balto: You know I was.

Ruby: Me and Ghost were there too.

Tsume: And none of you left early?

Balto: No.

Ruby: No.

Ghost: No.

Tsume: Good. I want you to write a list of everyone you saw at the hunt.

Ruby: Why?

Tsume: Because whoever wasn't at the hunt is a suspect in Doramis' attack and Mr. Souza's murder.

Balto: Isn't it possible this person was at the hunt then sneaked off to commit these crimes?

Tsume: That is possible too. If you noticed anyone leave early, write that down on the list as well.

Ruby: What about Doramis?

Ruby: Is she going to be okay?

Tsume: I don't know. She's currently in a coma.

Ghost: Do you think this person might try to attack her again?

Tsume: I think it's possible. That's why we have someone posted outside of her room. No one is getting close to that girl again.

Balto: Then we should wait till she recovers to ask her.

Tsume: I'm not sure she's going to make it.

Ghost: Isn't there something we can do for her.

Balto: I know you're not suggesting what I think you're suggesting.

Ghost: Why not?

Balto: Because we don't need anymore wolves.

Ghost: But she is only a little girl.

Balto: She's a teenager.

Ghost: Still too young to die.

Balto: She would have to last till the next full moon. Or do you suggest we kill her during the full moon so she could turn.

Ghost: No. That's not what I'm saying.

Balto: Well that's the only way she turns. She has to survive till a full moon and if she survives till the full moon, she'll probably survive past it.

Balto: Tell her, Alpha.

Tsume: We're not going to turn her into a werewolf.

Ruby: I agree. We shouldn't turn her into a werewolf.

Ghost: Then what's the point in us talking about this?

Tsume: We have a killer in our home. We need to take them down.

Ghost: I'm a killer too. Why don't we take me down as well?

Tsume: I'm not too sure about that anymore.

Ghost: Excuse me?

Tsume: I'm not too sure you killed anyone.

Ghost: Yes I did.

Ghost: I killed Ivy and Jack. Or did you forget about that?

Tsume: I'm not too sure you did.

Ghost: What?

Ruby: Yes, please explain.

Balto: I need to hear this as well.

Tsume: We're attracted to the smell of blood.

Tsume: Remember when Balto went to the mayor's house. It was because he smelled blood.

Tsume: What if the reason Ghost went after Ivy and Jack is because she smelled blood on them?

Ghost: Is that possible?

Balto: Probably not likely.

Ruby: Damn it Balto!

Ruby: Why do you have to be so negative?

Balto: Hoping there's not a killer in town isn't being negative.

Balto: Wouldn't it be better if it was Ghost who killed Ivy and Jack?

Ghost: Not for me.

Balto: Sorry.

Balto: But I hope you're wrong.

Balto: What even makes you think there's a killer in the first place?

Tsume: Mr. Souza was killed and the one who did it would have killed Doramis too.

Tsume: Then we have Ivy and Jack.

Tsume: And there's also the Mayor and Domingo.

Balto: What happened to Isabella was an accident.

Ruby: Domingo died from an overdose.

Tsume: Five people have died recently. I no longer believe any of these deaths were an accident.

Ruby: You're suggesting there's a serial killer among us?

Balto: Fuck.

Ruby: Double fuck.

Ghost: What are we going to do?

Tsume: We have to figure out who the killer is.

Ghost: But how are we going to do that?

Ruby: We need to tell Lucy our theory.

Tsume: That already crossed my mind.

Balto: Do I have to state the obvious?

Ruby: What's obvious?

Balto: Jordana is the killer.

Ghost: Really?

Balto: Think about it.

Balto: All this started to happen when she arrived.

Ruby: But she was at the hunt.

Balto: Then she must have snuck off.

Ruby: I think she might have been with Lucy that entire hunt.

Tsume: I don't believe it's Jordana either.

Balto: But you have to admit she's suspicious.

Tsume: Not really. She seems like a normal enough girl.

Balto: Yeah right.

Balto: She was working with Isabella and now Isabella is dead.

Balto: She stayed at Ivy's and now she's dead.

Balto: She's hanging out with Lucy and now her daughter is in a coma.

Balto: These things aren't suspicious to you?

Ruby: He brings up a good point.

Ghost: Wasn't she staying with Noah?

Ghost: Noah is still alive.

Balto: Noah is a big boy. She probably thought she couldn't take him.

Tsume: Fine. I'll investigate her, but I don't want any of you to tip anyone off.

Tsume: I don't want to put the town in a panic.

Tsume: You saw what they did to the bears.

Tsume: If they know there's a killer among them, they might kill an innocent person.

Balto: Or they might get the right person.

Ruby: No.

Ruby: I agree with Tsume.

Ruby: We have to be very careful here or we might get one of ourselves killed.

Ruby: We're not the most innocent looking people either.

Ghost: What if I was the one who killed Ivy and Jack?

Ghost: We're just speculating right now.

Tsume: Yes, but we'll know the answer to that question on the next full moon.

Ruby: How so?

Tsume: If she did kill them, that means she's killed three people.

Ghost: My wolf will be bigger.

Tsume: Exactly.

Tsume: We'll talk again tomorrow night.

Tsume: Everyone, be careful and don't tell anyone about our suspicions.

Tsume: Let's see what we can figure out on our own.

Ruby: Yes, Alpha.

Ghost: Yes, Alpha.

Balto: Sure.

Tsume: Thanks, and stop calling me Alpha.

Tsume: Goodnight.

Ruby: Goodnight.

Ghost: Goodnight.

Balto: Night.
