Well, I'm back! I have been gone for a very long time but I have decided to take my own advice and ignore the ONE bad review. I have been reading up on the stories I have missed and have been able to pass my writers block. I strongly advise Wolf Lake fans to read "the conclusion to wolf lake" (don't think I wrote that right...... oh well). It may be long but it is worth reading. It is only long because it is finished... check it out!!!!!

Chapter 4: Strength of the Soul
Luke walked up to the Hill kids only to hear Sean's voice. "So... has she flipped?" Sean turned around to find himself looking into the eyes of one annoyed Cates. He is eyes wandered to the scratches on his cheek. They were now only light scratches... only red marks really. Sean looked confused for a good reason. No one had ever been able to catch Luke by surprise. He had to ask, "Who did that and when?" He decided it was best not to ask why. Luke just looked at him as if he hadn't said a word. It only took a few seconds for Sean to realize that he wasn't even looking at him at all. Sean turned around to see Sophia walking down the hall towards them... but it wasn't Sophia. Sean still had to get used to the idea of it being her twin, Sophie, and not her. He sighed deeply in pity because of the pain he could smell from her. His brows frowned as he realized that it wasn't coming from her at all... it was coming from Luke. He turned to find Luke's unblinking eyes focussed on her and his hand was covering his cheek. It didn't take a genius to figure out that the scratches had been from her. Everyone had heard that she had shown up at the funeral and ran off near the end, followed closely by Luke. Only Sophie, Prestley and Luke knew what happened and even though everyone questioned Prestley, she would only glare. Sean felt an entire new respect towards Sophie, who seemed exactly like Sophia in almost every way. She had actually surprised Luke and given him some real good scratches if they had happened yesterday. Otherwise, due to their fast healing, the evidence would be gone. He looked at Sophie, actually looked hard at her for the first time since he first saw her. She was standing tall and proud with a hint of defiance. His mind was doing spins trying to comprehend what he was seeing. Sophie was wearing form fitting black jeans and a baby pink tank top with spaghetti straps. He watched as she put on a short, tight, black jean coat that matched her pants. On her feet were baby pink sandals. She wore her hair down and flowing. It shone as the light hit it, full with lots of body. The thing that caught his eye the most was her sapphire eyes. He also noticed that all the males, human and skinwalker alike, were all staring at her. He sensed Luke's rage and remembered the car incident with Scott. He sent out a mental warning that Luke seemed to ignore or not care about. Luke just watched her as she walked past them. Their eyes only meeting for a moment, but in that moment, you could see the tension. He could tell that Luke saw Sophia in her... who wouldn't. They were both strong, beautiful, defiant and he could sense the same attraction towards Luke. He just watched in silence.
Luke saw the look in her eyes. It was the same one he had seen from Sophia so many times. He would never forget that look for as long as he lived. The mix of love and hate reflecting in those honey brown eyes... but they weren't brown. They were green and she wasn't Sophia. He had to remind himself that, what Sophie said the day before was true. He had betrayed Sophia's memory and he wasn't going to do it again. Sadly, he couldn't help having feelings for her... he couldn't explain it. He seemed to be drawn to her and that scared him. He had promised himself after she had died that he would never feel that way about ANYONE again. He looked up again and saw her back as she walked away. He saw Sophia in her and he heard her voice in his head. *I want you to be happy, Luke. I always wanted that... we were not meant to be. She needs you... we need you. Remember... where two hearts beat together... only one now remains. Believe in our souls. They will guide us in the right decisions. Hurry before it is too late.* he shook his head like he was trying to shake some sense into it. I'll talk to Sherman about that later... but now... Before he could finish his thought, Sophie was confronted by Sherman. Luke watched as Sherman's face turned from sad, to grave. He watched as Sophie was showed into Sherman's office. SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!

AUTHOR'S NOTES:
I know that the titles don't really go with the chapters but I can't think of anything else. If you have a suggestion for their titles, just put it in a review. I always sucked at chapter titles. Ok, lets get moving on. Sophia is only a voice in Sophie's head. The only reason Luke heard her is because of a connection that was made by her between Luke and Sophie. Nether one knows it though. (I got this idea from Sapphira's story.) These are all short chapters but that is the only way I can do them because I don't have much time on the computer. In the next chapter, I will have Sherman discuss this prophecy thing with Sophie. If you have any suggestions on that, please tell me in a review.
