Now I know you all are wondering why I'm posting so many new things when I have Concrete Angel to update. This story is just a plot bunny gone too far. I hope you enjoy it anyway. (I do not own anything but the plot)
She-Wolf
Chapter 1 – The Beast (Prologue)
She was running as fast as her legs would take her. She could here the beast snarling behind her as it got closer with every stride. She had to get to the castle before it got to her. She was so close. Only ten more steps. Five. Two. At last! She grasped the cold handle of the great oak doors, but it was too late. She screamed as the beast's jaws locked onto her lower leg, warm blood running down in scarlet-colored rivers. She felt its claws scratch and tear at her body, ripping her clothes as it went.
In one last attempt to get away from it, she managed to twist around and kick it full on the face. With a yelp, it let go of her in surprise, and she managed to slip through the doors before collapsing in the Entrance Hall.
She couldn't walk. She couldn't make it up to the hospital wing. She didn't know how much blood she had already lost, but she knew she couldn't afford to lose much more. She had to get help, but it was late at night. Nobody would be in the halls, and she would be dead by the time morning came.
Now weak, panting, and just fighting to stay conscious, she thought she heard footsteps. At first she wondered if they were imagined, but, as the darkness threatened to overcome her, she saw the blurred outline of someone, or at least something, coming toward her. Then she knew no more.
A/N:
I know. Short! I promise the next chapters will be longer. She is not dead. I don't want to ruin the suspense, so I will go now. TTFN
