"Hey! Don't eat all the hot dogs! You're fat enough as it is!" Paul protested as Jared shoved about 3 hot dogs in his mouth all at the same time. I grinned and did the same, getting Paul even more irritated. We all knew that he was the one that loved food the most out of all of us, so we took joy in pissing him off.

"Alright, alright, calm down," I laughed and passed my extra hot dog to Paul, who grumbled at he took it.

"hey, hey guys," Embry said as he walked into Emily's kitchen. I wasn't really listening, but Paul and Jared perked up with interest.

"What?" Jared asked around a mouth full of potato chips.

"someone on the reservation is missing, and its really serious!" Embry explained. Just then Emily came in, frowning and looking a little sad.

"Oh yes, I've heard about that. She's been missing for two months now,"

"She?" Paul asked.

"yeah, Cicelia Hunter," Emily said, her brows together in concern.

"They say she disappeared in the woods," Sam said from the other side of the kitchen, coming round behind Emily to hold her. "No one has seen her since then,"

"doesn't she go to school with you guys?" Emily asked.

"Nope." Embry said.

"Doesn't ring a bell."

"Never heard of her." I didn't reply. I had heard the name before…but I didn't know what she looked like, or at least an image didn't come to mind.

Suddenly, Quil came running into the kitchen, breathing hard and looking panicked.

"Guys!" He gasped, his chest rising and falling quickly.

"What is it?" Sam said, his face hardening.

"Hey, dude, aren't you on duty tonight?" Embry asked. I stood up and walked over to Quil.

"What's wrong?" I asked, a little worried. I know I was new to the pack, but I sure was nervous when things like this happened. Plus with that red head out there, it was all action around here. I didn't want us to have to deal with another problem.

"I smelt something," Quil was wild eyed. "And it wasn't the red head. It wasn't even a vampire, I don't think so at least,"

"Well what was it then?" Paul asked, frowning.

"I think it was another wolf. But they're not in our pack!" We all froze.

Another wolf was on the reservation?

Me, Embry , Paul and Sam were running along the border line, not only looking out for the red head, but searching for the trail of the smell.

We have to keep sharp about this, and say instantly if you smell anything other than the red head, Sam's voice said. We all agreed and spit up in two's.

I went off with Embry. We were running along the trail for at least an hour, and no one had found any sense of the smell yet.

Damn this is boring, Embry complained. I rolled my eyes at him.

Yeah, but we have to do it dude, no matter how boring it is, I replied. At my side, Embry grimaced. Sure, I was the runt of the pack, but even I knew we had a duty. I wasn't that thick.

I don't know, you could've fooled me, Paul said inside my head.

Shut it, I stared to reply, until it hit me.

I froze suddenly in mid run. The smell hit me like a boulder, and I couldn't help but gasp. Embry turned around, wide eyed, and growled at me.

Seth! Sam's voice demanded. Have you found it?

Yes… I replied quietly. I didn't know how to describe it. It was like a wolf…but it was nicer. It was less musty like the rest of us, it was more fragrant …like rain and flowers. A shiver ran down my back, and before I even had the time to think, I was chasing the smell. It was about five miles east of the western border. In fact, the smell wasn't too far from where I lived.

Seth! I order you to stop! Wait for the rest of the Pack! Sam shouted. I winced and stop short. It was so close! I needed to find the source of this smell!

DAMN IT! Its going to drive me mad! I snarled.

Woah there, Paul said, Calm down. We're here already, Paul came up round behind me snapping at my tail. I glared at him.

Seth, your never like this, what's wrong? Sam asked, as we followed the smell through the under growth.

I…don't know why. Sorry guys, I gave Sam an apologetic look. He nodded.

There. He said, as we approached a clearing. We all split up and circled around, to corner in on the wolf.

I crouched down, so as not to be seen, just like the others, and waited until He came into view.

My blood ran cold at what I saw. Quil was right, it was a Wolf…but…

I've never seen a wolf like that, Paul said quietly. We were all in Awe.

The wolf was large, just like us, maybe a little smaller. Their muscles were less defined, and it had a more lean and elegant figure. There fur was a deep red colour, which changed into dark red to black around the face, paws, and end of the tail. The thing that stuck me the most, were the piercing green eyes that looked around the clearing nervously.

Just then, Paul decided to spring out of our hiding place, and snarled at the wolf.

The wolf's eyes widened in shock, and gave a yelp. That surprised me.

All the others, Sam, and Quil, Jared and Leah, jumped out and followed, surrounding the wolf, snarling and snapping at the little thing. Paul jumped on the wolf, and bit their ear roughing, tearing a chunk of it out. Jared bit the wolf's leg, and I heard a crunching noise as the leg broke. Leah did the same with one of the font legs. The wolf was crying in pain, and withering away.

I didn't move though. I stood very still and watched the wolf. There was something about them…I felt…bad.

Our gaze met from across the clearing, and I felt pain in my chest. Their eyes…were scared, no, terrified is more exact. They were scared of the pack. I had to…protect them!

STOP IT! I snarled. I moved faster than I ever had before, and suddenly I was there, snarling at my pack, and bit them as hard as I could to get them away from the wolf. I stood in front of the wolf, trying to protect it from all angles.

Your scaring it! I exclaimed angrily.

SETH! Sam snarled. What the hell do you think your doing?

They're not doing any harm! Why do we have to do this? They're scared as shit, can't you see that? I snarled back. They have yet to make one move against us and yet we are like animals and attack them!

They came onto our land. Paul replied angrily. I glared at him. What a bastard.

What if they didn't know? What if they had no idea and are completely innocent?

And what if they're not? Sam said, staring at my harshly. I didn't reply, but turned to look at the wolf. There was blood covering it all over.

Your hurt it…I said sadly. Poor, tiny, fragile little...My eyes widened. As it was on its side, I saw that….

ITS FEMALE! I shrieked in surprise. I glanced over at Leah in shock. She looked just a freaked.

The wolf stared up at me, with those bright cold green eyes, gazing at me steadily. Then, there was a retching sound, as she had a coughing fit. I watched I horror as the wolf coughed up blood, and then suddenly, there was the familiar ripping sound.

Before my very eyes, the beautiful wolf turned into a beautiful, very naked, young girl.

She was drenched in blood, and looked very unhealthily thin. And she had now passed out.

My eyes widened, and I turned to Sam in grief.

Its…Cicelia Hunter… I said faintly as I stared at the beautiful girl…And I swear I would never look away ever again…

tell me what you think?
