## Summary

Sammie, Miguel, and Stanley set about trying to find a way to track down the flying werewolf version of Bjorn. Miguel says there are ways of magically tracking things and starts looking through his cabinets. He pulls out a set of odd looking goggles and hands them to Sammie. He tells her that the goggles will amplify her third eye and allow her to track Bjorn, but it needs charged with magical energy first. Miguel instructs her to focus on keeping her third eye open for as long as she can and pumping as much magic as possible through the device for it to work. Miguel says he would do it for her, but he's spent all the magical energy he has on cleansing Henry.

Sammie focuses on opening her third eye and releases more magic than she intended into the goggles. When she puts them on, everything is far too bright. She squints through the light and is able to see a dimmer trail of golden magical light. She seems to think this is the trail to follow Bjorn. Miguel asks her if its working and Sammie explains. He then says they need to get Henry up before she leaves. Miguel injects Henry with some kind of purple, magical fluid that wakes Henry up immediately. Stanley attempts to do some healing on Henry and then Miguel gets him stable. Miguel is looking drained and exhausted after expending all this magical energy. He slumps back into his chair.

After taking a few moments to rest, Henry follows Sammie as she starts to follow the trail. Stanley follows them to the docks, getting into the same boat as the knocked out Shemar and saying he'll handle the journalist. Sammie and Henry get into a different boat and set out to try and find Bjorn.

On the water, Sammie tries to find any trace of Bjorn. The light from the goggles is so bright, it's starting to hurt her eyes and her head. She looks out toward Thornvale and notices it is covered in a purple haze. It's not a magical aura that Sammie recognizes. The only other time she's seen any purple magic is just a little bit ago when Miguel injected Henry with some kind of medicine. Sammie also sees bursts of green throughout the purple haze. She singles out the trail of golden haze that she had been following and gives Henry directions.

It takes Sammie and Henry some time to follow the trails. Eventually, Sammie spots a bright golden light. As they get closer, Sammie realizes this is Bjorn himself. Sammie points him out to Henry. It's noon, the middle of the day, and Bjorn is flying in the clouds above the docks on West Thornvale. He is still in his werewolf form, a white wolf with wings. Sammie takes her goggles off as Henry asks if she can drive the boat if he takes off into the sky. Sammie is still seeing some colored splotches, but is able to see well enough to operate the boat. Henry tells Sammie to follow him and Bjorn as he jumps into the sky to try and get Bjorn's attention.

Sammie calls Stanley to tell them their plan. He's back at the Fort after taking care of Shemar. Sammie asks if they have any way of trapping or containing Bjorn once they lead him back to the Fort. Stanley says he thinks he can find something and tells her to tell Henry to lead Bjorn to the courtyard. Henry then takes off into the sky and Sammie starts back toward the base.

Henry flies toward Bjorn to get his attention. Bjorn turns toward Henry with a feral look in his eyes and gives chase. They move at a rapid pace toward the Fort. Henry outpaces Bjorn and keeps his attention. Henry makes a dive toward the courtyard and Bjorn follows. As they swoop close into the ground, Stanley throws out a shimmering net. Bjorn crashes into the ground, caught in it. The net begins to burn at his skin and Henry soon realizes its made of silver. As it burns, Bjorn begins to transform from a werewolf back into his human form. Henry runs to try and help him, but Stanley holds him back, telling him to wait. Sammie arrives on her boat, pulling up to shore. She runs up just as Bjorn passes out. Stanley then urges them to pull the net off and get to Bjorn.

The three of them pick Bjorn up and carry him into the Fort. They carry him down to a cell by Ben. Ben watches through the window of his door and asks what's going on as they carry Bjorn through, covered in blood and burns. They put him in a bed in a cell. Sammie tries to heal him and Stanley pulls her back, saying they can't risk him waking up and still being feral. Sammie isn't okay with not helping Bjorn, but silently moves away.

They leave Bjorn secured in the cell and make their way down the hall. Sammie asks Miguel what's wrong with the goggles and tells her what she saw with the purple haze and green bursts. Miguel says they're just broken and asks for the goggles back. Sammie hands them over. Miguel leaves to go rest. Sammie and Henry have lunch and then Sammie crashes in a guest bedroom. Henry brings a chair into the hallway outside of Bjorn's cell and reads a book while he waits.

A few hours later, Bjorn comes to. His memory is hazy, but he remembers bits and pieces. He remembers biting and killing animals and biting Henry. The last thing he remembers is someone 'throwing pain' on him and then passing out. He jumps to his feet and runs to the window at the door, but can't see anything. He calls out to see if anyone's there and Stanley appears. He asks if Henry's okay, saying he bit him. Stanley says to ask him himself and Henry approaches from where he'd been reading. They reassure Bjorn that they were able to cure Henry and everything is fine.
