It was like my body was being torn apart, the pain was unbearable. I had never felt anything like it, I thought I was going insane, I was hearing these voices in my head telling me to do things. It wasn't right, I wasn't right.

It finally started to stop, the pain, the agony, but the voices where still there. I stood up slowly starting to stretch, not a good idea, my body writhed in pain making me shake. I walked very slowly to the bathroom door, when I opened it I saw something in the mirror didn't look like myself. I walked slowly yet again out of the bathroom and in to the small living room looking around at my family: Mom, Dad, and Seth, who looked taller like a foot taller. "Leah, how are you?" Dad asked looking like he was about to go off the deep end, "I'm…okay." I responded a little sourly,=2 0it wasn't that I was mad at him, I was more worried than anything else. "Seth, go get Sam and the others." Dad said this still looking at me, I felt like I was under a microscope. "What happened?" I asked dumbfounded, I had no clue what was going on, what was the big deal about me turning in to a werewolf? My dad looked at me shaking his head mostly to himself I believe. Sam and Seth walked in to the house a few minutes later, no one had spoken a single word since Seth had left, it still killed me to see Sam. "Harry, Sue," Sam said nodding recognizing the fact that they where there. "and…Leah, how are you?" Sam asked looking worried, "Why does everyone keep asking me that? It not like you care anyway." I said this last part in hushed tones, "Everyone is asking because what you just went through was extremely painful and agonizing, and were worried." Sam said moving slowly towards me stopping just in front of me putting his finger on my chin pulling my face up to look at him, I shrugged away, then turned and walked out of the room and into mine.

I shut the door and then sat on my bed holding my knees to my chest, after a few minutes I heard a nock on my door. I didn't answer instead I hid my head in between my knees, "Can I come in?" Seth asked, I took a deep breath pulling myself together, "yeah," I said quietly, Seth came through the door and walked to the bed sitting himself at the end of it. "I'm sorry, Sam doesn't know how to deal with this." Seth said, I shuddered slightly at his name, "Deal with what?" I asked looking up at him. "You, something like this has never happened before." Seth said, "What do you mean, it happened to you, it happened to him." I said a little defensively, "Well, its never happened to a girl before." Seth said shrugging, I rolled my eyes.

"Whats the big deal with me being female?"

"Well, its just never happened before."

"Its not that big of a deal."

"Yeah, it is." Seth said his hands balling up into fists, he slowly unclenched them trying to calm down. "How is it a big deal?" I asked as calmly as I could in my current state of being. "It just is, you'll understand sooner or later." Seth said shaking his head, this worried me he very rarely got upset, well before his transformation that is. "Well, is Sam still here?" I asked half heartedly, I really did feel bad about running off like that but I couldn't help it, it felt like I was going to explode. "Yeah, he has to talk to you about some stuff." Seth said standing up, "Do you want me to send him in?" He asked as he walked to the door, I just nodded Seth walked out then Sam walked in. "I'm sorry about earlier." I said looking down at my hands, I really was sorry but I was in my nature to get mad at him, after he turned in to a werewolf he imprinted on my cousin, before he was turned we where in love, deeply and madly in love. "Its fine, are you okay?" He asked walking over and sitting just inches from me, it took everything in my power not to bring up our relationship. "Yeah, just shaken up." I said looking up at him, " Well there are things that we have to go over." He said with a sigh, I was still in love with him even though I wanted to kill him.

"Like?"

"Well, first off the basics."

"What basics?"

"Of being a werewolf." He said, I nodded once and sat at paying attention, I knew this was important so I had to listen to him. "First off, you have to try to control your emotions, which is really hard for me still." He said, I nodded signaling for him to go on, "You have to be careful not to get to mad because you will turn if you do." He said a calmly smiling slightly at me, What?" I asked defensively, "Oh, sorry I didn't mean for it to seem like that, your just taking this really well." He said a tad bit startled, "Its not your fault." I said shrugging, "Then the other problem is that when you phase your clothes literally rip off of you, so if you know your going to phase you need to remove your clothing, this is an issue with most of the early ones." Sam said looking down at his hands, "How would I know when I was phasing?" I asked trying to move the conversation along, "Well you can obviously do it whenever you want, but if you lose control you will start to feel like your going to just burst." Said Sam, I rubbed my arm awkwardly, "When will I have to phase on my own?" I asked curiously, "Well if we need you for getting rid of out enemy, or if we are doing other things that involve phasing, and training so you can learn the basics of being in wolf form." Sam answered a small smile on his face, we sat there in silence for a moment, then I decided to pipe up.

"When will my training start?"

"As soon as possible."

"Why do I need training?"

"Well most of it will be instinct, but some things you have to be taught to do."

"Oh." I said stretching my arms out, "Well I'm ready to start training when you are." I said a small smile on my face, it would be hard to be around him knowing that he would rather be with Emily. Sam stood up, I followed, then I noticed even with the sudden growth spurt he was still taller than me. Then something unexpected happened, he took my hand and pulled me to him, he then hugged me my hands balled up in fists and I started to shake. He let go of me instantly, he muttered "sorry…" I ignored him and stepped away from him.

"Well, um whenever you feel good enough to start training tell me."

"I feel fine now."

"Oh, well then I guess we could start now if you want."

"Yeah that would be nice."

"Okay then," He said looking in to my eyes, Sam then turned away and walked out of the room. I followed him in to the living room where I said good bye to my parents, Seth thought that he would join us in my training.
