Chapter 1: Birth of the howling wolf.

Jojo goes to check the mailbox to see if the pack got anything and the only thing in the mailbox was a letter with what seemed to be a moon stamped to it to keep it sealed. Jojo opens the letter and begins to read it. Hours later the pack members come home and Jojo is eager to read the letter to the pack.

"Who is it from Jojo?" Hawks asks

"I dunno but its like a story about Mana" Jojo says as he begins to read it.

I hear our fellow classmates tease him and jeer at him saying that his fur is on fire, they would say that his fur is on fire just so they could throw water on him. the student body would all just laugh at him, I saw two people push him down a flight of stairs. He was rushed to the hospital, several fractured ribs, a broken collar bone, bruises and cuts. I went to the hospital to see if he was ok, but when we got to his room, nobody could be found. It was during math class when he began to write a poem, the teacher came and snatched it right off his desk. She read it to the class and the class laughed at him even more, called him emo, gothic, freak. The teacher though she did somethign that I never thought a teacher would do, she told him that if his mother was alive she would be so dissapointed in having a son like him. I followed him one weekend, he went to a lake just to relax, I seen some kids from school following him, i hid behind bushes to see what they would do, they tied him with rope and through him into the lake. They just laughed and walked off, I dove in to try and save him, I got to him and he was blue in the face. I did CPR for a good 5 minutes before he revived. I sat with him and he talked to me, but when he talked his words seem to flow from his mouth like poetry. Things got ugly though, a teacher from school seen Mana talking to his daughter and decided to try and run him over with his car. How do i know this, because Mana was sitting down waiting for his mom to pick him up and i seen a red honda come and start speeding up next to the curb. The car ran over Mana's leg shattering every bone in it. Mana's parents tried to sue the school and the teacher. But no one believed, no one even cared, everyone wished that he was dead, But i found use for him. My family took him, and his brother in after his mother died. I gave him a belt with a wolf buckle. Why did i give him a wolf belt? It's because When he howled, wolves could be heard howling too.

After reading the letter, Jojo notices a little arrow pointing at a corner. Jojo flips it over and see's a picture of Mana as a little kid, Mana looked only like he was 13 at the time.

"We're coming back" Jojo says as the pack begins to wonder what it means, hoping that it means they are coming back.
