## Synopsis

Henry, Sammie, and Oliver cautiously walk into the woods to try and find Anthony. They both surprise the other and Anthony shoots Sammie. They have a tense stand off, neither of them convinced the other is really a person and not the creature. Eventually, Anthony agrees to go back to the road with them to their car. Bjorn arrives back to the spot he left the group only to find they're not there. He waits and starts to call their names eventually. They meet back up and Henry finds a jade figurine in the car that had fallen out of his bag. Bjorn breaks it and they use it to test everyone to make sure they're not a skinwalker. Appeased for now, they all get into the car and start to drive away.

## Summary

Sammie immediately begins to walk toward the voice before Oliver stops her. She tells them that the voice is her uncle, Anthony. The voice shouts again. The voice either belongs to her uncle who actually needs help or to the skinwalker that ate her uncle. They can't see anything from the road. They decide to stay together and walk toward the voice, Sammie leads the way.

They come across a mud puddle with fresh prints and some broken branches - someone just ran through here recently. They follow the trial, moving deeper into the woods. They start to hear a groan of pain nearby. Henry draws his gun as they approach and then Sammie and Oliver do as well.

Sammie notices the light glint off something beside her but can't react in time. There is a loud *bang* as a gun fires and Sammie feels a bullet rip through the right side of her chest. She immediately drops to the ground. Henry and Oliver look up to see a surprised man holding a gun. They don't recognize him at all. He seems to be very beaten up and wounded. Henry trains his gun on the man, using his dragon eyes to see better in the dark. The man points his gun at Henry and demands to know who he is. Henry says since he just shot his friend he should be asking him the same question. He says his name is Anthony. Sammie, coming out of her daze, calls from the ground that it's her, it's Sammie. Anthony immediately lowers his gun and looks shocked, down at Sammie, he takes a step toward them and then raises his gun again and steps back. He asks how he can know it's really Sammie.

Sammie asks him the same question and Anthony says because he just told them his name. Sammie says that they know the creatures out here can mimic other people they've eaten and take their memories. Anthony starts to look scared and like he might run. starting to think they are the creatures. Sammie tells him to ask him something to test her memory. Anthony asks her what the tattoo on his neck is for and Sammie replies its for the Order and that hers is burned out because she was excommunicated. Anthony seems appeased by this answer and lowers his gun. Henry cautiously lowers his gun as well.

Oliver tells Sammie that she should take care of the wound in her chest. She reaches her hand up to heal it, and does so, but when she tries to talk to Anthony to ask him a question, no sound comes out. It seems something went wrong with her magic and paralyzed her vocal cords. Henry questions Anthony on why he's out here to begin with. Anthony chooses his words carefully, but says he was sent here by the Order as penance. He gestures to Sammie and asks if she knows what he means. Sammie nods. Oliver seems to notice something is wrong with her and asks if she's okay. Sammie taps her throat and swallows hard. Oliver has to fight back a smile as he asks if Sammie 'magic'd her voice away.' Sammie nods and Oliver stifles a laugh. Sammie glares at him.

Henry is still focused on trying to figure out if Anthony is a skinwalker or not. He suddenly remembers he has a jade talisman in his bag but when he looks for it, he sees a hole at the bottom it must have fallen out of. He hopes that means its in the back of the rental car. Henry looks up to see Oliver giggle and Oliver explains what happened. Henry doesn't say anything, just getting closer to Sammie and Oliver and saying he has something to test if Anthony is a skinwalker or not but it's in the car.

Sammie pulls her phone out of her pocket and types in "let me touch you to confirm it's you," and holds its out to Anthony. Anthony doesn't want her to touch him because he's still not certain Sammie isn't a skinwalker. Sammie explains she can use magic to look into his memories and Anthony gets a panicked expression. He apologizes and then says if Sammie does that it will "make certain things more difficult" and then scratches at the tattoo on his neck. He says he's not sure what he's allowed to talk about with Sammie anymore. Sammie puts her phone back in her pocket and shrugs before starting to walk back toward the road. Anthony is incredibly nervous, flinching at every noise.

Bjorn arrives back to where he left Henry, Sammie, and Oliver only to find that they're not there. He parks the car, gets out, and locks it, making sure Helena is secure inside. He stays by the car, shining his flashlight into the woods to try and see any signs of them. He uses his dragon eyes to see through the dark but still doesn't spot anything. He flies into the sky, still keeping the car in sight, but still doesn't see anything. He lands and quietly calls out for Henry, Sammie, and Oliver.

Henry, Sammie, Oliver, and Anthony hear this from the woods. They start to walk more cautiously and hear their names again but louder. Once they're close to the road, Henry calls out to him and asks him what his 'monster form' was. Bjorn shouts back that he was a werewolf and to hurry it up. They hear Anthony have a moment of recognition as Anthony realizes Bjorn was the werewolf that got Sammie excommunicated. They all make their way out to the road and Bjorn asks who's with them. Henry ignores him and shoulders past him to the car to look through the back. Anthony introduces himself as Sammie's uncle.

Henry digs around in the back of the car and finds the jade he had in his bag - it's a small, jade cow. He immediately stalks toward Anthony and Anthony quickly steps back, drawing his gun and holding it on Henry. He asks Henry what he's doing and Henry says that if he can hold the figurine then he's not one of them. Henry tosses it to Anthony and he catches it. It holds it in his hand and asks if it's supposed to do anything. Sammie tries to cut in and make a sharpening motion with her hands, trying to communicate it's only if one is injured by jade. Bjorn notices Sammie doing charades and asks what happened. Oliver explains.

Bjorn then tells Anthony they're going to have to try and sharpen the figurine and cut him with it to test if he's a skinwalker. Anthony is confused and asks why. Bjorn explains the weakness to jade. Anthony nods in recognition and explains that Helena had mentioned something about jade earlier before she ran off. Bjorn tells him that they found Helena and she's in the car. Anthony immediately runs to the car and tries to get in, but Bjorn has locked it. Bjorn says they need to test him first before they let him in the car and Anthony finally agrees.

Bjorn takes the figurine from Henry and asks if it's alright if he breaks it. Henry agrees and Bjorn drops it on the ground and shatters it. Bjorn then picks up a shard of it and hands it to Anthony who cuts it across his palm. Nothing seems to happen outside of what is normally expected when someone cuts their palm. He tells the others to cut their palm as well so he can see they're not all skinwalkers. They all make small cuts on their hands to prove they're not the creatures. Bjorn tells everyone to get in the car so they can drive somewhere safer. Bjorn gets in the driver seat, Henry in the passenger, and then Sammie, Oliver, and Anthony squeeze into the back with Helena, who is still unconscious. Anthony makes a small cut on Helena's hand to make sure she's not one of the creatures as well. As they're driving off, Anthony asks how they all managed to find him out here.
