They kept coming closer the big reddish brown one in front the sandy one followed and in the very back of the train a sleek silver wolf smaller than the other two. The reddish brown one stopped when he was maybe 20 feet away to shuffle the fringe of the trees. Minutes later a very tall, muscular, shirtless man walked out of the shrubbery.

"What are you?" he asked quietly. As if he knew i'd be able to hear.

"Vampire" I said choking on the nightmare word.

"why don't you hunt people?"

"it is wrong to take a human life."

"how do you resist?"

"running, not breathing. Anything."

"why are your eyes still that color? By feeding only on animal blood they should have dulled a little bit."

"i don't know"

"who made you?"

"no clue"

"where are you from?"

"Idaho"

"How did you get here?"

"ran"

"do you know where you are?"

"not exactly"

"you are in the woods near the La Push reservation. In Washington."

"oh." the fear I felt for these ginormous wolves choked me off in the middle of my sentence.. Their teeth were longer then my arm. "are you going to kill me?" was said in a whisper.

"no."

"then can I ask you some questions?"

"shoot."

''what are you?"

"Me? I'm a Jacob."

"not person you. Big bearwolf you"

"oh. That. I'm also a shape shifter. Alpha of this pack" he gestured towards the other two.

"i didn't know shape shifters even existed. Then again I thought vampires were only fairy tales." I said looking down, and noticing Kyran had fallen asleep on my feet. Obviously these monsters meant no harm. I hadn't noticed but the sandy and silvery bears had left. Replace by a girl and what looked to be her younger brother.

"this is Seth and Leah." the Jacob said. "and one more question. What is that?" he pointed at Kyran.

That made me laugh.

"That is Kyran. He is my only friend. I found him before his eyes and ears were opened, both his parents dead nearby. Killed by a bear."

"oh. We were planning on offering help but you don't seem to really need it." the Seth interrupted. His nearly black eyes laughing

"i think she needs it, look at the state of her clothes." the Leah added.

"what do you think? You seem to be doing fine on your own." the Jacob wondered.

"i think that I want to be around people again. But only if I can bring Kyran."

"Deal." the Seth and the Leah said together.

"you can stay with us." the Seth decided. Looking towards the Jacob for the okay.

"alright. What about you Leah." she grumbled a fine whatever. I breathed a sigh of relief. I would live another day. Even if it was with these funny smelling dogs.
