Phased!
Wow, I love her. I thought to myself, as I gazed across the class to the love of my life, Leah. I guess she felt my eyes on her again, and she shot me a look out of the corner of her eye and I hurridly shuffled the papers on my desk and pretended to be writing my notes, and I heard her giggle to herself. A huge grin spread across the contours of my face and it felt like I was floating.
When the final bell rang, I hopped out of my seat and went to pick up Leah's books for her. It was a simple gesture I made everyday, it didn't bother me to carry them all, I was concerned that she would hurt her back if she carried them too much. So I chucked them into my backpack and flung it over my shoulder.
" You know, I can carry my own stuff, its not like I'm weak or anything" she protested and she flipped back her long hair and I tucked a stray piece behind her ear.
" Oh, I know, I wish you would stop fighting me on everything I try to do for you Leah-baby. I love you, I always will, this is one way I show it" I explained.
" Oh yea, showing off and making me feel dependant, lovely. And yea… I love you to Sam" she said before standing up on her toes to kiss me.
Leah was probably the most beautiful girl on the reservation here in La Push. A lot of the guys were jealous, wishing that she had fallen for them. We walked for the most part in silence through the small community, on our way home from the school. As we were walking past the small general store two rather larger boys who I knew well from the other reservation were standing there. They were trouble makers, everyone knew that around here.
" Are you ok Sam?" Leah asked concerned. " Your skin is boiling" she stated dropping our hands. I had been so pre occupied that I didn't realise that I did feel a little sick, and I didn't notice my apparent fever.
" Maybe we should take you to the hospital in Forks" she suggested still wearing a worried look on her face. She cared for me way to much, I knew we would always be together.
"Hey sexy thing, why don't you come over here and we will show you how to have a good time" the taller one of the boys standing by the store called over to Leah. This pissed me off, more than it usually should have, I could feel the surge of anger pulse through me. They must have seen my face because they took off down the road.
But there was something else… I felt… different. Everything started to go fuzzy, and it seemed like the ground was shaking from under me, until I realised it wasn't the ground, or the trees, or the houses that were shaking, but it was my whole body.
" I .. gotta.. Go" I forced out of my trembling lips to Leah, I will see you later tonight I promised her, before dashing straight for the woods. I thought I was going to be sick, maybe Leah was right, maybe a did need to see a doctor.
I couldn't control the tremors any more, they were pulsating through me violently. I continued into the woods a little further before I dropped to my knees. I heard a loud ripping sound and it felt like something was bursting out of me. A howl ripped through my chest and it startled me. What the hell! But I felt a little better, and felt like I needed to run, so I did.
I happened to glance down while I was running and stopped dead in my tracks. I put my arm out in front of me and jumped backwards. Ok, seriously what the hell is going on, I thought. My arm was replaced by a large shaggy paw. I gulped and then I felt my tongue hand out of my mouth. I noticed a small brook that was running through the trees, and I stepped tentitively over to it, and started down into the waters reflection.
" Gahw! What have I become!" I screamed but it came out in a chortle of barks and whimpers. The reflection wasn't the tall dark haired, calm featured man I was used to seeing. But now rather a huge black shaggy wolf, or at least that's what I think I had become, I looked like a wolf, but.. How the hell did something so big come out of me? This was impossible, ok, I am going crazy. I started loosing it. I started hyperventalting, but it came out in pants with my tongue lolling out the side of my mouth and I ran, and I ran.
I wasn't sure how much time had passed, But I never really seemed to get tired. Day turned to night, I wasn't even sure where I was running too. But I came across a small town and I noticed that I was in Canada. Northern Canada to be specific, it had to be, it was nearly summer, and the ground here was frozen solid, the wind bitter, but I barely noticed it, my thick fur kept me warm.
It took me almost two weeks before I made it back across the border and back to La Push. I was calmed down enough I guess, that had to be a factor, I was calm, calm enough to make sense of what had happened, even though it was nowhere near logical. And I'm pretty sure I would be encarsarated when I returned. Leah would be frantic, so would her parents, and my mother. I never really knew my father, he was in and out of my life while I was kid, but he took off with some woman apparently who lived at the near-by reservations.
But when I had myself calm enough I felt the shiver roll down my spine and I sprang up onto two feet again. And to my horror I had no clothes. That must have been the ripping out I heard when I first… I don't know what the term for what happened to me was, maybe transformed is a good term? I don't know, but I snuck around the woods to the back of my house where I slipped in the window to my room, and changed.
The next few weeks I tried to keep myself as calm as possible, I didn't go to school, and of course I still couldn't answer to anyone where I had been, and what I had been up to the two weeks that I had gone missing. I felt so alone. What the heck was happening to me? I couldn't see my girl friend, and the woman I loved. Everyone assumed that I was in some sort of trouble, with drugs, or what not. And frankly I would rather be known as a drug dealer than someone who has gone mentally insane and believes they turned into a giant dog.
I met Quils grandfather Old Atearea one day when he stopped by, and when I shook his hand I thought he was going to have a heart attack. I dropped my hand quickly, and I realised that I was still running a temperature.
" Oh, yea sorry about that, I am running a bit of a fever" I said dumbly. He ignored me and raised his hand to my forehead.
" You could fry an egg on your skin" he commented. "Come, we need to gather the elders, we need to talk right away" he becconed me to follow him so I did.
When all the elders were gathered they sat me down and looked at me with curious gazes.
" You have grown haven't you" old Quil stated, I merely nodded my head because I knew I had. " He is running a fever too, plus that time that he was missing" he continued to speak to the others who seemed to understand him.
They explained to me what had happened, and they rehersed our old stories of our tribe and the spirit warriors and the spirit wolves. It was all starting to make sense. And I suddendly didn't feel so alone anymore. They told me that others will join me, when they are old enough, and that I would most likely become the Alpha of the pack, and that I would have to lead them. That the stories of the bloodsuckers were true, and that they believed that if they hadn't come back to Forks, that the "werewolf gene" wouldn't have been triggered.
But it was no our responsibility now to protect out people, our tribe, our lands. I was shown the boarder, where our lands stretched and where the treaty line was.
It was so much to take in so quickly, but I felt dutiful, like I needed to do it. But I hated what I had become, according to the elders I wasn't allowed to tell anyone. They let me go for now, they said that if I had any more questions or needed to talk about what was happening I could go to any of them. Once I left their presence and took in all the information it happened again, and I couldn't control it any longer. I dashed into the woods so that I wouldn't be seen.
My body shook violently and I burst through my clothes again, sending the fragments flying through the air and the floated gently to the wet forest floor. A howl ripped through my chest in anguish, fear, pain, and anger and took off to learn the treaty line and the scents.
