"ALEXIS"

"Yes mother?" I replied fake sweetness leaking from my voice.

"I said don't call me that". She snapped at me.

"What do you need?" I said, my tone bored.

"I thought I told you to go to the grocery store." That was a rhetorical question. "You did but then you said to clean my room" I answered anyways. "Well do what I say in order" she said, very annoyed by the way. "Okay, I'll go to the store" I snapped, walking to the door. "Take out the trash on your way there." I didn't say anything, I just graved the trash bag and walked out hoping I can keep myself from phasing.

You see I'm a shape shifter.

I know, I know, you're probably like "what the hell is she talking about" and I'll explain that.

It all started two years ago….

"Your so useless I don't know why I kept you." A 12 year old me was shaking in my chair listing to my evil stepmother yell at me for accidently turning all the white clothes pink.

I live with my stepmother because my mom left me when I was about one years old. My dad got remarried when I was 8. I never liked my stepmother and my hate for her got even worse when my dad passed. I use to think of myself as Cinderella until I realized I had no sisters and a prince wasn't going to go around the reservation looking for me with my lost shoe. I also didn't lose a shoe so...

I was feeling sick lately and I was getting mad at the stupidest things. At first I thought I was going through puberty or something like that because I grew a lot and gained muscle. My acne cleared and I lost all my baby fat. I also got hotter temperature wise but I ignored it because I felt as healthy as a horse. That is until a week ago. I should have listened to Liv when she said to go to the hospital. Olivia is my best and only friend. She lives in Forks where I go to school. I live on the reservation but my house is right next to the border between Forks and La Push. I don't really fit in with either though because I have tan skin so I don't go with the pale faces but I have dirty blonde hair and blue eyes so I don't fit in with the black hair, brown eyes res kids. Liv told me to go to the doctors after she hugged me and said that I was hot but I just brushed her off and said I was fine. That statement bit me in the ass though. I can hardly walk into the bathroom to throw up.

As I was listing to Lauren (the step-monster) yell at me about how much of an idiot I was I couldn't stop shaking and ran out of the house.

"HEY WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU GOING IM NOT DONE WITH YOU"

Lauren was calling after me but I could barely hear her over the burning sensation in my bones. I kept running further and further into the woods but I had to stop because the pain got worse. I was curled into a ball on the floor panting trying to think about anything but then pain. I tried to calm myself down but I was so angry and tired. My vision got blurry and I felt like I was spinning. Then I felt it. The changing sensation.

Two words,

It. Hurt.

I could hear my bones snapping and I felt them reforming into something.

After probably only a couple of seconds the pain went away and I could see clearly again. I got up to see what happened and if I knew where I was but when I stood something was wrong. That's when I looked down.

I HAD PAWS

They were pure white and they looked like they belonged to a dog so of course, I freaked out.

I mean what else was I supposed to do.

It took what I would say was about an hour before I stopped denying that those paws did in fact belong to me.

I thought I was a dog until I stumbled upon a stream and looked in.

'I am I pure white wolf' was my first thought. 'What am I going to do' was my second.

I thought about how this could have happened and that's when I finally remembered the legends of Taha Aki that I heard at a bon fire I went to one time. The spirts and the wolfs. It all came crashing back to me.

I was a sprit wolf!

But how and why?

And most importantly what am I going to do?

I was a wolf for about two weeks until I finally phased back. I was naked. I couldn't walk back like that but I didn't want to phase back because I didn't want to be stuck as a wolf again. So I stayed in my birthday suit and tried to use different scents to go back home. It looked like luck was on my side for once because I found a clothes line next to small house in the woods. I didn't even want to know who lived there. I graved an oversized orange tee shirt and a way to small pair of royal blue shorts, promising myself to bring them back I continued on my path back home.

Like I thought, Lauren was furious. She demanded to know where I was and claimed she was worried but I knew she wasn't. I was grounded for a month but it gave me more thinking time because, well, that was a lot for a 12 year old to go though. I looked different. I grew from 5'1 to about 5'7. I was toned and had abs. I looked older. I would say at oldest I looked 16. I was surprised Lauren didn't question it. My fur was kinda long and I was questioning if it was because my hair was long. It fell all the way to the bottom of my back in loose curls. Who would I even tell about this. That's when I decided. No one.

Present Day…

That's about it. Im 14 now but with the right clothes I could pass of for 18. Lauren started questioning me but I would always give excuses and brush her off. I have been a wolf for 2 years now. Its hard sometimes and I feel really alone. I also learned that vampires exist and that I can rip them apart but I have to light them on fire for them to stay dead (I learned that the hard way). I also have A LOT of unanswered questions. I just got back from the grocery store and I was about to call Liv when step-monster came in. "Alexis" she said her tone blank. "Yes Lauren" I answered back, my voice just as blank. "I have enrolled you at La Push high school for your freshmen year."
