When Preston had suggested the motion sensors, he never imagined it would put the Alpha and the Gamma at odds.  Much less, the fact that Jay had brushed him off so quickly.  He knew the younger wolf wanted no part of being with him, but that didn't mean he could question the way he did his job.  Still, it was enough to make him pause.  Had he already fucked up?  Maybe not if the Alpha was defending his idea, in a roundabout way.<br/><br/>Luckily, Luna spoke up before it could get too bad and it seemed that she was perfect in her role and a soothing balm to the hotheadedness Preston was sure would continue between Cy and Jaymus. He nodded along with her as he spoke and when it looked like she was finished, he knew it was his turn agian.<br/><br/>"It was nothing against the scouts not being capable of doing their jobs.  I have full faith in their training, but I wanted to save them from an ambush."  He glanced at Victoria briefly before continuing on, because her reason was the same as his.  "In my old pack," because him not originally belonging to this pack wasn't news, "We had well trained scouts as well.  They were ambushed before they could even call for help.  From there, it just went downhill.  A lot of packs work the same way so it's not hard to find a way to break the link.  I just wanted to give the scouts a notice so they could be prepared, and we could be prepared here."<br/><br/>He frowned a bit and leaned back in his chair.  "I'm still working through it, but I'll probably do some tests later with it if I have your okay, Alpha."  IHe glanced at Jay and Luna briefly before looking back at Cy.  Finally, he looked back at Jay.  "Perhaps we can keep the test run a secret, as part of training.  See if the motion sensors work and just how your trainees will react to it.  Maybe a test before the sensors are up and after.  If it doesn't work, they can be taken down and I'll find something better."
