Hello, sorry this is a little later than I had hoped, still enjoy.

(This whole time Percy is in wolf form, incase that isn't clear.)

I slip through the vegetation as I silently stalk my prey, a young, injured bison that probably got in some fight with the other bull for dominance. I make sure most of my meals are of animals that otherwise won't live much longer or violent ones that cause more than the circle of life. When the bison gives up trying to walk and collapses near the place where the forest meets the plains, I go in for the kill, I calmly walk to the tired bison, so as not to startle the poor thing, I look into its eyes, they're filled with pain and defeat, I give him as reassuring of a look as I can, as if assuring him ill make his pain stop. I quickly put the large animal out of its misery, using my usual, painless, method, a quick bite to the throat, each time I make sure to hit the carotid artery so that the animal would bleed out and die quickly with only a second of pain. The way I figure it, if I have to be a monster, I may as well be a neat monster.

Satisfied with my kill, I carefully gut the creature of its organs, I prefer not to eat that part of animals, until I am left with just the meat, fat, skin, and fur. I've learned that it's easier, and less hairy, to eat my food from the inside out. I eat until I am full then I leave the organs and leftovers in plain sight so that the scavengers can find an easy meal. It's my way of giving back to the community.

With a full belly I happily trot back to my den, it's a beautiful day, warm with a slight breeze, the sun peeking through the treetops leaving pools of light on the forest floor, the forest is alive with the sounds of my neighbors, or so I like to think of them, they don't really fear me as they have gotten used to my presence and through generosity I was able to convince them that I wouldn't hurt them. I'd met some other wolves that also lived in the forest, not werewolves, of course, but normal wolves, all of them were cautious of me at first, until I shared my meals with them, proving I wasn't a threat. They returned my kindness with stories of their travels, they even offered me a place in their pack, which I had refused explaining that I preferred to stay in one spot, they had understood but they still visit when they pass through.

I'd been living in this 'neighborhood', somewhat peacefully, for almost three months. However, being that I am still a demigod; monsters still come, though my wolf blood does an okay job making the godly blood that courses through my veins. A few weeks ago I ran into a few hellhounds that had smelled me, they were searching for a demigod, and I looked like a wolf so they didn't give me a second glance. I was able to use that to my advantage and surprise them from behind with a swift bite to the carotid artery, before they could react the turned to golden dust.

I am brought out of my thoughts by a loud, painful scream. A shiver makes its way down my spine as I realize, I know that scream, I have heard it before. My wolf senses kick in and I break into a sprint in the direction of the blood-curdling scream. Thanks to my GPS brain I find my path easily and quickly make my way towards my destination, as I get closer I hear an arrow being shot through the air. I remember the sound from my days training in Camp Half-Blood; I cringe at the painful memory. I slow down as I enter a clearing and see an old enemy of mine, the Minotaur, I don't understand why that thing can't accept defeat and stay dead. I am once again brought out of my thoughts by the familiar shriek. I look down and see my cousin, Thalia, lieutenant of Artemis's Hunt, stuck under a large branch of a fallen tree, or pushed tree thanks to the minotaur's charge, the minotaur was using his huge ax to chop the tree near Thalia, but sloppily as if he couldn't see properly. As the Minotaur continued its attempts to kill the hunter, I begin to stalk up to him, I am crouched low to the ground, as I get closer I decide my plan of action and hope for the best. With all my might I leap onto the Minotaur's thick leg, and begin climbing up it like a tree, digging my long, sharp claws into it with every step, biting it furiously on my way up. Realizing the extreme pain I was causing to its leg, the Minotaur stops chopping at Thalia and swats at me. Before jumping off the beast's leg, I tear a large chunk out of its thigh, causing the Minotaur to howl in pain and shift all its weight to the other leg. I then copy my technique on the other leg, however this time the Minotaur succeeds in throwing me off but not before I am able to one again rip off a chunk of his thigh, causing him to fall. I am flung from the beast's leg and hit a tree, hard. I hear some of my ribs crack on impact and howl in pain, but I don't allow myself to accept defeat, I need to save my cousin, I owe her that much for disappearing on her without a word.

I look to where the Minotaur fell in pain; I now see why its vision was so bad, it had an arrow straight through its left eye, I know he won't stay there long. Desperate for all of this to end, I break into a run and leap onto the monsters chest, wincing at the pain coming from my now cracked ribs. I waste no time before clawing and tearing at the Minotaur's neck. I pull at the layers of skin and fur until I see its throat and windpipe, I don't hesitate before breaking them cleanly in half with my razor sharp fangs, now I only need to wait for the beast to suffocate to death. In a last-ditch effort, the Minotaur kicks the branch off Thalia and onto its own dying chest, so that it will land on me. In that moment the monster turns to dust and I fall to the ground landing on my already damaged ribcage. Unfortunately the branch falls as well and lands on my paw, I whimper in pain, but don't have the energy to attempt an escape.

Thalia's stormy blue eyes are the last thing I see before I give into my exhaustion and drift out of consciousness.
