A/N: I should have said this before but Skye looks a bit like yoruichi from Bleach. Updates will probably be slow as I am now in collage but I'll try and get some chapters done during my free time. There are a LOT of stories floating around in my head and I am hopeing to post more in the future. Enjoy and please tell me what you think.

Chapter 2

The next morning Skye was woken by the twitter of birds her joints stiff and cramps in her mussels, she felt like she had run a mile, got run over by a bus and dragged a kilometer by a truck. She got out of bed and noticed there were bruises on her arms and stomach, 'how did I get those?' she wondered. Walking to the bathroom to brush her teeth she noticed that a rather large bruise on her cheek. . .

'What the hell hap-' Skye suddenly remembered what happened. 'Please, let that have been a dream.'

Skye went down to the kitchen and saw her brother and sister sitting at the table, looking incredibly crestfallen. They both turned too looked at Skye the moment she walked through the door with a strange look, like anticipation on there faces.

"So, not a dream huh? All of that really happened last night?" Skye asked.

The look on her sibling's faces was enough. Skye couldn't help the tears that fell from her eyes and down her face, she was too overwhelmed. Loosing her parents, finding out that vampires are real and that she was a werewolf, nobody could take that much in one night and not have a mini break-down.

Susan got up from her chair and hugged her close. That was the best thing anyone could do for Skye in her opinion, it showed her that her family (what little was left) that they didn't care what she was, they didn't care that she was a wolf-freak, they still cared about her.

It also helped that her sister had this uncanny was of making everything seem better that it was. Making the place happier somehow.

Mathew coughed dramatically to get the attention of his sisters who were still comforting each other, and he pulled out a letter from the counter-top behind him. "I thought that you would like to see this." He started "it's the letter that Dad was talking about the other night. . ." Matt's voice trailed off toward the end becoming quieter.

The letter itself was a faded yellow color because of its age, and sealed with tape. The letter itself was addressed to Skye. Susan walked over to Matt, who had his right foot resting on his felt leg while his right hand had the letter, and took it from him. She looked at it questioningly then held it out to Skye.

"Sue. . ." Skye couldn't even finish because her sister had clamped the hand that wasn't holding a letter over her mouth.

"Don't even start with me" Sue said "Because I don't want to hear it, you are going to open this letter then read it. . . Then we-" She indicated to herself and Matt "are going to read it too"

Skye knew it was easer to just do what she was told than to even try and argue with her sister when she made up her mind. So she took the ancient letter with a sigh and carefully pried the tape off the back off the letter. The letter itself was just as yellow as the envelope. The date was a few months after Skye was born.

It read; To our daughter,

If you are reading this letter then I am truly sorry that I didn't have the courage to tell you this myself or that I am unable to. I know that you are confused and I hope that this letter will clear some things up. You are not your mother's daughter.

When I was traveling in America for a job there I met a wonderful woman . . . I wont go into details but you were conceived. It was a stupid one night stand but I don't regret the outcome (you) at all.

Your brother and sister were only young at the time so I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't remember this happening. Anyway when your biological mother found me here in Ireland and said that she wanted to let me know that she was expecting and that she would most likely not survive the birth, she was very weak at the time. She wanted nothing more than to make sure that you were taken care off.

Your mother (non-biological) already knew about the affaire and wanted another child. Your Biological mother was Native American. . . I can't remember the exact name of the tribe (I think it was like 'Kill-something' only with a 'Q') but you were always loved and always will be.

Love Dad.

After Skye's siblings (or half- siblings) read the letter they both stared at her. An awkward silence filled the room until Sue said "well this letter is right about one thing. You are still loved, epically by us."

. . . _ . . .

A few days after the funeral Skye, Matt and Sue were sitting around the dining table. The atmosphere was still a little depressing when Matt brought up a topic Skye hoped was forgotten.

"Hay Skye wanna try and become a werewolf again? Or is it only on the full moon?" he said teasing.

They had had a bit of trouble with the name of the native-american tribe and google, but with a little bit of tweaking they had managed to find the name of the tribe that Skye belonged to and together they had read some of the legends that were told. One was a story of a 'spirit-warrior' that was betrayed by his friend had to inhabit the body of a wolf. It was said that the decedents of that wolf-warrior were also able to change into wolves. Well that explained a lot.

"No-" Skye started before she was interrupted by Matt.

"Listen before you shoot the idea down, hear me out" She scowled and kept quiet "I'll take that as a yes then. OK well you know that Sue and I will stand by you, and if you get past the whole 'My sister turns into a wolf the size of a wolf', it IS kinda cool." Matt finished.

Skye didn't say anything, couldn't say anything, she didn't believe what she had just heard. Her brother had just openly admitted that the very thing Skye was scared of, he thought was 'cool'. "You think... that me turning into a werewolf... is 'cool'?" Skye wasn't sure if she was more infuriated or appalled. "I can't listen to this, you two are insane" And she stormed off into her room deciding to be infuriated.

"I don't think she likes the idea Matt" Sue said from the other side of the table

Because of her siblings, Skye now had a lot to think about. Listening to the Final Fantasy VII soundtrack she went about organizing her thoughts. Skye was afraid, terrified of what she was, Did she want to turn into a werewolf again? What if she hurt someone? What if she couldn't turn back and was stuck as a wolf forever?

While she could remember every detail of that night and especially the talking dog, she couldn't remember exactly how she turned back . . . she just did.

As the 'Cosmo Canyon' theme came on through Skye's headphones she decided to give the wolf thing a try 'What's the worst that can happen?' she thought "I am so gonna regret that later" she mumbled.

Skye made her way back into the kitchen and was surprised to see that dinner was almost ready. Glancing at the clock she was that she was in her room for more than three-and-a-half hours. 'Time fly's when thinking about becoming a werewolf'

Sue and Matt both turned when they noticed her. "I'll give it a try, and that's all" she said to them. They both looked smug... 'I am sooo going to regret this...'

. . . _ . . .

Skye, Matt and Sue were standing in the middle of the garden, the good thing about living in the country-side, no neighbors. Skye was wearing an old pair of tracksuit bottoms and an old t-shirt. If she was going to explode out of her clothes she wasn't going to were anything she couldn't afford to loose. The grass felt good to her naked feet, Skye liked to walk barefoot normally.

'Concentrate...' Skye thought 'Concentrate... Concen-'. "This is stupid. It's never going to work if I just think 'become a werewolf'" Skye was getting more and more frustrated with her siblings, they had been at this for hours. Skye didn't notice that she was trembling slightly.

Matt noticed it though "Skye maybe you need to use anger. What are you feeling now?"

The trembling stopped; Skye hadn't even noticed that she was doing it. She tried recreating the anger (it wasn't hard considering how annoyed she was at the whole thing) and this time she felt it. There was fire trembling down her spine sending the tremors to her arms and legs, but it wasn't enough. Skye gave a slight 'push' and felt heat flooding through her body and felt a silent shimmer that made her something else.

It was surreal and strange. Skye through her big paws onto the ground feeling awkward, they felt too big. She was surprised to see that she was taller than both her sister AND brother. Matt was 6'7 and it felt strange to be so tall. Skye guessed that she was a bit under 10 foot.

She never got a good look at herself as a wolf the last time; her coat was a mix of silver's, grey's and browns. Her paws and forearms were white fading to silver, her arms to her torso were silver, and her face and muzzle were white, with a 'vein' of white going between her eyes and dividing into a strange Y shape in the silver-gray shade of her face-fur. Her underbelly was a faded white going into silver then gray and finally fading into a dark-sandy-light-brown color on her back and tail.

Skye's paws, while being big, were also different than a normal wolf's. The dew claw which grows higher on the leg and doesn't touch the ground was longer on Skye. It was almost like a thumb. It was like a strange hand-paw.

Matt was stunned "Wow..." was all he could say. Sue on the other hand, who had seen Skye's wolf form before and got over her shock quicker than Matt, walked over to wolf-Skye and put out her hand to her. Skye saw what she wanted and moved her head closer so Sue's hand was on her head.

Sue ran her hand over the fur on Skye's head "Hmmm, it's really soft and warm." Skye grumbled a sigh.

Matt, who finally recovered from shock, said "Lets see how fast you can run"

Skye was actually happy at this, she always liked running. She bounded from end of the garden to the other in just a few strides and a few seconds. I wasn't near as fast as Skye felt she could go. "My God, that was epic." Matt said his eyes bugging out of his head "Change back and we'll head inside"

Skye's wolf face fell and Sue and Matt understood that to be the universal 'Oh crap' face.

"You can change back right? You did it before" Sue asked

. . . _ . . .

A few hours later Skye finally managed to change back. Her sister had suggested that if they wanted to know how fast Skye could run they could go to the Curragh (pronounced Kurr-ah). It was famous for flat-land horse racing and was only a 20 minute drive away. It wouldn't be hard to find a deserted spot. Then things could get interesting.
