Right, and I'm just disclosing that I did not make up the characters or twilight series stuff x
August 10th- Full moon
Legs dangling off half the cliff and securely sitting comfortably Leah began to think. She thought of the few dark things that she kept hidden, even from the pack that she tormented. The thoughts and emotions came flooding out of her like air out of a balloon. Memories of her dad she refused to share with anyone else, precious moments with Sam and painful memories of the life she left behind. Friend's faces and names, naming kids that were in her junior school, memories of putting on makeup and doing her hair just to go to the movies with her friends, the moment she had gotten her driving license and believed she was truly free.
She shoved a little dirt and rock of the cliff; it hit the large stones that stuck out from the edge before dropping into the ocean below, casting small ripples in the water, six ripples and counting. She could see the scum that had built up over the years on the rocks below, even though they were meters below sea level, she could see them. Even the spiders could be heard as they made their homes in the dry crakes and ridges on the cliff, the sun's rays roasted the rocks making the spiders lazy as they hung from their webs, always silent just watching the ocean as she did now. No human could get to the spot she was at, unless they were rock climbing and had meters of rope to hang of, metal clamps and padding for safety, unlike them all Leah had to do was jump the couple of feet down. She grinned, animalistic thinking. No humans allowed only bugs and she-wolves.
Her wolf form affected her human side more often nowadays from the previous weeks before of preparing for the 'War' that should have taken place. She found herself dreaming in her wolf form more often and almost having a bigger appetite than the boys, drooling at even the waft of cheese burgers. Leah even felt younger, she hadn't been exactly a healthy and athletic person before, but she felt stuck, like time had frozen her into place. No dark circles from late patrols, no hay fever, no aching muscles, nope, nothing normal. She was alive and wired from the moment she woke up. God, she hoped she wouldn't end up like the Cullen's, the next step up on the supernatural ladder would be insomnia.
She's wasn't the girl she remembered, the one whose memories she had. Back then she wore makeup, straightened her hair and dressed up from time to time. There wasn't much to dress up for now though, between prowling the night, working two shifts at the restaurant and her mum and Charlie's fishing equipment store she was on the run 24/7, no one caught a glimpse of her so there was no need of looking glamorous, and if anyone did say anything about her ruffled appearance they kept it to themselves, she had built quite a reputation for her temper these days.
She brushed her fingers into the long blades of grass surrounding her, clutching tightly, as though finally she would be able to find something to anchor herself to the earth and become stable. It'll happen, one day just, whoosh, and the between worlds will separate to form one, and she'll be herself again. That instant connection and then there wouldn't be any vampires or shape-shifters, her mum wouldn't be angry or crying, she would have Sam here beside her whispering in her ear and kissing her neck, and then when the sun went down he would drive back to hers, where her dad would be on the porch, waving her home.
She dug her hand deeper into the earth, her nails grating into the dry ground. Teeth clenched so intensely that her jaw ached, vision blurred and a painful growl resonated throughout her body but the tears never fell. She was wishing for the impossible to happen, as though by a trick of fate it would, and her world would fall into place, like everyone else's happy ending.
A howl swept through the canyon, echoing of the rocks.
She swung her legs of the cliff side steadily breathing and wiping her mind of the thoughts and emotions that she had allowed to surface. She didn't need anyone seeing what her thoughts had been just now, if she focused enough on her wolf form and senses, nobody would stop to notice.
Phasing had become that one new connection she'd made. A liberating and out of body connection, she was able to shift the human self over and let the wolf just take over and do its thing. She only had to focus on the things happening in her she-wolf world, those were the times when Leah just disappeared or never existed. It was like being on autopilot, but you have razor sharp teeth and a short temper.
Or anyway she knew she did, Seth on the other hand could make a semi-full grown supernatural beast look like a kids toy, yeah because everyone's just dying to run up to a shark and hug it.
She sighed, did she want her wolf form or not? Be old Leah or wolf? Another piercing howl sounded, this time closer and more urgent, something was wrong. This was why she needed her wolf, wanting it wasn't an option, it was part of her now, forever.
