Spirit Animals: A New Beginning
Chapter 1: Hutner
"Oh. My. GOSH!" Yelled my little brother Jeremy, sounding amazed. "Julian! You did it! You summoned a spirit an- "as his mouth was clamped by someone's hand. I Opened my eyes and regained consciousness. What Happened? I Thought. I looked at the crowd packed around me. Oh...Now I remember. It was award day in Trunswick, where one person once a month, was chosen to face the town hero, Ferd. I was in the midst of delivering the winning attack when I felt sick and as a flash of blinding light appeared, I had fainted. I looked back at the crowd and I felt sheepish, but they weren't looking at me. No, they were looking at the giant white-furred wolf standing in front of me. The wolf had pale green eyes with long beautiful eye lashes. Its razor-sharp teeth got moistened by its ruby red tongue. The muscle on its forelegs showed that if you wanted to fight it, even if it was for your family's survival, you would lose. It was beautiful. She was beautiful. Her eyes locked up with mine and I got uncomfortable. I felt like I was her prey. I sat up slowly as she walked closer to me. The citizens of Trunswick gasped and jumped back as the wolf, my wolf, turned her eyes to scan them. I felt an instant connection and a word popped up in my head and stayed there. I Couldn't get it out. No matter how hard I tried to think of something else, it was there. I gazed at her in a questioning manner, as if she had done this, and she nodded. "Hutner," I whispered, then louder. "Hutner!"
Hutner leaped on me the second I said her name and licked my face playfully. The crowd got out their weapons and started to pursue, inching forward, thinking she had attacked me. I raised a hand and said, "Halt." And they stopped and released the tension. I laughed and stood up, facing the crowd. They all looked at me with newfound respect, and awe.
Chuffley, the towns head Greencloak, came up to me and gave me a pat on the back. "Congratulations Julian, you have summoned a spirit animal! But not just any spirit animal," He said in a low loud voice. "You have summoned a wolf, I do not know how, as no one is able to summon the same animal as a great beast. Julian, you have done the impossible! The greencloaks will need you to come to Greenhaven and let Lenori see you. I am sure that there will be more like you." And then in a low voice he whispered to me, "I hope my suspicions are wrong but something this unexplainable happening often ends up with a disastrous outcome."
I looked around and everyone's faces were filled with awe, jealousy, anger, sympathy and fear. All except Jeremy, who had a smile on his face and was too young to understand much. Everyone went dead silent. So I asked, "What am I supposed to do?"
