Bringing the truth to light

Chapter 3: The Truth

….. (SBPD)

Chief Vick, upon hearing Juliet scream, rushed out of her office anticipating trouble but not really expecting what she was about to see. She stared in shock at the sight of a grey and white wolf standing in the middle of the station. She also noticed that detective Lassiter was struggling to keep from laughing.

"Detective do you mind telling me what is so funny about a wolf being in the middle of the station?" She asked Lassiter heatedly. Lassiter looked up at the chief with a look akin to shock.

"Oh. Um, nothing except for the fact that the 'wolf' is Spencer. And I'm pretty sure he won't eat anyone." Lassiter answered with his eyes averted from the chief.

Chief Vick then turned her attention to the wolf standing beside Lassiter which had started to shift from wolf form to the shape of Shawn Spencer. Upon seeing the transformation of Shawn Spencer she sighed.

"Mr. Spencer do you mind telling me why you never mentioned you could change your form?" Chief Vick asked with annoyance. Shawn blushed from embarrassment.

"Um, I can do more that have visions and shape-shift." Shawn started quietly.

"Well, Mr. Spencer what is all of your abilities?" Vick asked acidly. 'I can't believe he hid this from us that ungrateful psychic! I bet he is not even a real psychic and has been lying to us every time he claims that he is one.' Chief Vick thought angrily.Upon hearing what the chief thought and felt about him Shawn paled. "What is it Mr. Spencer? Are you okay?" The chief asked worriedly when she saw Shawn's suddenly pale face.

"I cannot believe that you think that I hid this information from you and that I have been lying to you about being psychic!" Shawn snapped angrily.

"Every time that I tried to tell you about all of my abilities you kept telling me 'Mr. Spencer if this is not about a break found in a case or a vision that you had I don't want to hear it.'" Shawn snarled viciously. Shawn's eyes changed from light hazel to a murky green. Instinctively Lassiter put his hand on Shawn's shoulder. Because Shawn could feel Lassiter's concern and worry for him, Shawn calmed down quickly and his eyes changed from a murky green color to Shawn's normal light hazel colored eyes.

"Mr. Spencer I am very sorry that I never took a chance to listen to you then. Would you be willing to tell us about your abilities now Mr. Spencer?" Chief Vick asked feeling genuinely ashamed with how she had treated him.

"Yeah I will tell you guys all about my amazingly awesome abilities. First off everyone knows about my visions that I have. In addition to my visions I have the ability to read peoples' minds, Shape-shift, and sense the location of a person. But in order for me to get a correct read on the person's location I need their birth name and or their current physical appearance." Shawn informed them.

"Hey Spencer I have a question about your shape-shifting ability. Are you only able to shift into animals or can you change into other people?" Lassiter asked Shawn curiously.

"So far I can only change into animals." Shawn answered Lassiter.

'Wow, even though he can't change into other people that is still an amazing power. I can't even believe that I had accused him of faking.' Lassiter thought.

Shawn grinned upon hearing Lassiter's thoughts. Lassiter paled when he noticed Shawn's knowing grin.

'Crap I forgot that Spencer can read minds. I hope he doesn't tell anyone about what I was thinking because I have a reputation to uphold.' Lassiter thought.

"Don't worry Lassie, I won't tell anyone what you were thinking." Shawn whispered to Lassiter. Lassiter let out a relieved sigh.

"Okay, Detective back to work. Mr. Spencer we have a case if you are interested." Chief Vick said to Shawn.

"Oh yes I am always interested in new cases." Shawn responded happily. Shawn was glad that finally the truth had come to light and they accepted him for being the way he was.
