Ch.2
NPOV
I was confused, so confused. How could I be a wolf? Mom said only the guys turned into wolves.
And besides I wasn't even full blood Quileute. I had vampire and a little human in me too. My mom
was a half breed, and dad, even though he never knew about me and I never met him, was a Quileute.
Enough thinking, more walking.
Ugh this trip to Washington was taking longer then I thought it would, but I had just arrived. Now all I
needed to do was find La Push. I had been on the move for 3 days now, stopping only when I was
overcome by sleep. Sleeping on the ground wasn't my number one choice but right now I had no money
and no belongings, only a destination. God I was tired.
"You could always just go wolf." The thought popped into my head as it had so many times in the past three
days. Ya it would probably be faster moving as a wolf but then I knew nothing about being a wolf. I didn't
know how to turn into one or even if I could turn back if I wanted. The first time it happened was a pure accident.
"Aaaahhhhh!" I yelled as a twig poked its way through my foot. I sat down hard on the ground and brought my
foot to my face. I pulled the stick out with a scream and glanced down. I felt like I was going to be sick. Their was
a dime sized hole in my foot, bleeding like crazy. Damn what was I supposed to do? I couldn't walk on it, but I
couldn't just stop here either, not when they were after me.
As I was contemplating my choices I faintly felt the pain going away.
"What the...?" It was gone.
The bleeding had stopped and when I wiped off the rest of it I saw that the whole had closed.
Gone. There wasn't even a scratch left. I shook my head, trying to remember exactly what mom
had said to me about the shapeshifters.
They changed only when a vampire appeared.
They healed really fast.
Could run really fast and were pretty strong too.
Now what about phasing?
They could phase whenever they wanted if they had controlm but most of the time it was when they were...
when they were... ah what was it? I was starting to get mad at not being able to remember. Mad. Mad. Angry!
Thats right, they phase when they get angry and change back when their calm enough to focus and do it. Well
it was worth a shot, I could at least try, then maybe I'd make it to the reservation in Washington in one piece
and in enough time so I don't starve to death.
Before I started I remembered one important detail, when people shapeshift their clothes rip to shreds and these
were the only ones I had. With a sigh I started to get undressed. I stood in the woods, naked, trying to get mad.
It wasn't working and I was freezing my butt off.
"Come on, come on. Oh come on!" I yelled. "I'm always angry, why can't it be enough now?"
Calm down Lete. Maybe I didn't need to be angry after all. Maybe if I could just concentrate I could force myself to change.
I took deep breaths, calming myself. I cleared my mind and using all my energy, focused. Imagining myself, angry, mad,
tearing up that bloodsucker that killed my mother.
Killed and drank from her!
Taking away the one thing I figured I could count on in this world.
The one person that mattered most to me!
How he attacked her and left her to die!
NO he left her to be found, found by me!
That son of a- Rrrriiiiiipppppp!
It worked!
I shook my fur covered head in disbelief. I can't believe it actually worked! I allowed myself a little happiness at the
thought of being able to control my powers just a teensy bit better then I had before. Then a smell over took me,
distracting me. It smelled familiar. I smelt my fur and realized that the odor was coming from me.
But wait, this smell was different, like me but at the same time, not.
I snapped my head up, realizing that what I was smelling was another wolf.
"Guess I'm closer to La Push then I thought, alot closer." I said to myself.
I was about to take off when I heard the pound of feet coming towards me. Not feet actually, paws, paws hitting
the earth, coming in my direction.
I stood my ground, waiting for whoever it was to find me. The noise stopped and out of the trees stepped a sand
colored wolf. Bigger then me, but not by much, I could handle him.
I growled deep in my throat, surprising myself and the other wolf. I crouched down, ready for anything. The wolf tilted
his head to the side, you know, the way little kids do when their confused. I stepped back in surprise and he falshed
a wolfy grin, tounge hanging out the side of his mouth. I brought myself out of the crouch and held my head high as I
walked towards him. The grin disappeared and before I could worry that I had misread him, that maybe he wasn't friendly
after all, he nodded his head at me. Indicating that he wanted me to stay put. I did as asked as he trotted back into the trees.
Moments later a boy about my age came back out. He had Russet colored skin which led me to believe he was Native American,
probably Quileute since he could phase. A thick mop of dark hair covered his head. He was kind of gangly, the way boys look going
through puberty. But even so he had muscle. All he wore were cutoff blue jeans so I could see his bad ass six pack and his arms
which looked rip despite his built. And he was tall, exactly the way mom had described the boys who were able to change.
"I must be in the right place then." I thought.
He walked slowly towards me, showing that he meant no harm.
"I'm Seth." He stated. "Whats your name?"
I stood still, not able to answer the question.
"Where are you from?" He asked again.
Again, I couldn't answer.
"Can you phase back? It would be alot easier to have a conversation with you."
I shook my wolfy head in sadness.
"Come on I won't hurt you. I just wanna meet you." He flashed me the same grin as earlier but it looked alot cuter coming from him and
not his wolfy counterpart.
I hung my head low this time, hoping he would get the message. "
You can't?" Shake side to side.
"Do you know how?" Shake again.
"Want me to help?" I lifted my head in hopefulness.
"Alright is this your first time? Cause if it is it'll probably be a little hard." Nod.
"Okay now what you need to do is focus. Pull yourself together. Pull you back into your human form. Let all the anger go and just focus."
I did as he said, pulling my energy to the center of my body. Focsuing on turning back into a human. I was getting it, I could feel it. I was changing back.
"Wait!" Steth interrupted. "Your a girl?" I nodded.
"Ok well wow. First things first I need to get you some clothes alright. Because when you phase back, well your naked.
So I'm gonna run home real fast and grab you some clothes. Then I'll help you." My head went up and down, thankful for
this boy who had found me.
"Alright." He said smiling. "I'll be right back, don't go no where." With that he left back the way he had came.
I prepared to sit there and wait when I heard it, or smelt it rather. I knew that smell, I could pick it out anywhere.
Bloodsucker.
I stood up, ready to fight. "Wait." I thought to myself. I can't handle a vampire, I'm not ready. When it happened with the other
one it was because he had just killed my mother and I was burning with hatred. Right now I couldn't. The vampire would destroy me.
Without thinking twice I headed off in the direction Seth had gone.
I tried staying with Seth's scent to run away from the vampire but I realized I couldn't lead them to him. I changed course quickly,
taking off in a different direction. Before long i found myself standing outside a cute little cabin, one that looked like it had come straight
out of a fairytale. I walked around it and from the lack of noise, came to the realization that it was empty. Following the advice from Seth,
I did as was told and succeded in changing back.
"Yes!" I shouted, not realizing how loud it was. "Oops." I said quieter.
Cautiously I made my way into the cabin, flipping on light switches as I walked through the rooms.
It really was like a fairytale, all majestic and something you would see in a disney movie. I walked into another room, the bedroom. From
the beauty products on the table I sighed in relief. I had found a girls room. I went into the closet, hoping that she was my size.
"Alright." I exclaimed when I found several outfits that would fit me perfectly. Pulling on some faded jeans and a black OP tank, I heard a noise outside.
A girls voice. Shit it must be the girl that lives here. I glance around looking for a place to hide. Seeing the open window, I shrugged, what better place to go.
I threw myself out the window, landing on hands and knees.
With a backwards glance into the room I hurried away.
I had only gone maybe 30 ft when I heard a growl. Peering into the brush I came eye to ey with something big. Something with eyes
that looked like humans. It growled at me.
"Oh shit!" Another wolf!
I ran in the opposite direction as it raced towards me. I tripped, stumbled, and fell through the woods trying to get away. But it was faster and
I knew I couldn't go much longer, it would catch me. Seeing a huge white house up ahead I stepped up the speed. Just a little bit faster, I could make it,
I knew I could. I looked over my shoulder and saw the huge gray wolf catching up to me. Right in time I flung myself at the door. Opening it I threw myself inside,
knocking into someone. We both landed on the ground with a heavy thud I stared into those dark brown eyes and knew they looked exactly like mine.
"Sorry." He said in his deep, throaty voice. He helped himself off the ground and then leaned down to pull me up.
He was about to say something when he looked me over and confusion clouded his face. Then anger, pure anger.
"What the hell?"
Funny, you'd think he would have a different reaction after finally seeing his daughter.
