Chapter 3: Sophia's Choice.
Jesse stood there watching the sheriff drive away, he hoped that Sophia would be ok. There was nothing Jesse could do about it now. He decided to see if he could find a room at the motel. He got back in his car, and before he could get the motel he came to a diner and realized he hadn't eaten anything since breakfast. So he decided to stop and get a sandwich. He stop his car and went in to the diner.
There were some teenagers in the corner playing pool. He sat down at the bar, he keep his mind off Sophia.
**Maybe I should have went with her. No I am in outsider, her father could take care of her. You are on vacation Kilmartin, try to stop rescuing people.**
The waitress comes over.
"What can I get for you?"
"A ham and cheese sandwich, and a coke."
"Ok, coming right up, handsome."
"Thanks." said Jesse slightly blushing.
Just then he heard a scream so loud, that it sent chills up his spine. Jesse wasn't the only one who heard it, all the teenagers in the corner were now silent, and whispering amongst themselves.
Jesse knew that scream.....Sophia.
**I have to find her. But where do I start? Surely her father can help her, I hope. But I can't just sit here and do nothing!**
Jesse gets up and heads out the door.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Luke had never ran so fast in all his life. As he ran up the driveway, he could sense his mother was near.
**Oh God no...please don't let me too late**
Luke didn't bother to knock, he didn't have time to be polite. He opened the door and ran up the stairs to Sophia's room. He opened the door to her bedroom, as he went in he could see Mr Donner,Mr Blackstone and his mother standing over Sophia. His heart refused to beat. He could hardly breathe. His mother came over to him, "What are you doing here Luke?"
"Is she...gone?"
"No, not yet, I was about to inject her with the morphine when you barged in."
"Mom, please don't."
"Luke I have no choice, you know that after a certain amount of time there is no other way...please leave the room Luke."
Ignoring his mom, he went over to Mr Donner, "Are you just going to let her kill Sophia?"
"You have some nerve....Barging in here!! She told me what happened tonight. This is all your fault Luke!!!"
Those words cut Luke like a knife. Mr. Donner was right, if Luke hadn't lost his cool, maybe Sophia wouldn't be going through this right now.
"I'm sorry, please let me try to talk to her...maybe I can convince her to flip." said Luke.
Matthew Donner was angry to say the least at Luke right now. But if there was something that Luke could say that might change Sophia's mind, then he was all for it.Matt nodded his head, and led the other two adults out of the room to let Luke and Sophia talk alone. As Matthew left he took one last look at his little girl, because he knew that if Luke couldn't talk her into flipping he would have to let Vivian break her neck. He hated Luke, but he loved his little girl more. She was 16 years old and just yesterday they were talking about what college she wanted to go to.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Sophia?"
"Luke....what are....you doing....here?"
"Sophia, please don't fight this, being a Skinwalker is the most amazing thing ever, I will show you how fun it can be."
"Luke...I can't.....live here....forever."
"Sophia, living in Wolf Lake for the rest of your life won't be as bad as you think, I mean....look I know you had dreams of being an astronomer, and that can still happen, you can still do that....just in Wolf Lake..not Italy."
"Luke....I don't want .....to live ....as..the ....half-breed ...wolf....alone." Sophia said as a tear rolled down her cheek. She didn't enjoy being the freak, or at least that is what Presley and her friends will call her. She had enough of that before now, she could only imagine how bad it was going to be if she flipped. Then they would have a field day making her life miserable.
"Sophia, I won't let anyone call you names or make fun of you. I promise!"
"Luke...you say..that now..but what...is to..keep you...from breaking...that later?"
"Sophia, I know I haven't protected you before, but I am promising to now, I won't let anyone talk about you, not even Presley. Please Sophia, you are my best friend, and I don't want to lose you.....I love you."
"What?"
"I love you."
Before Sophia could say anything Vivian came back in. "Luke, please leave, I need to be alone with Sophia."
"Mom,please...no"
"Luke it is too late for her. Her father has accepted that and it is time you do too. Please wait in the livingroom downstairs with Sherman and Matthew. When I am done with what I have to do, I will be down. Go."
Luke left the room, and headed down the steps to the livingroom. He couldn't believe it, why was this happening just when he realized he loved her. As he walked into the livingroom, Mr Donner looked at him. "Luke, did you get through to her?"
"No. I tried..but it didn't work...I'm sorry..you were right..it was all my fault."

15 Minutes Elapse
Vivian Cates comes into the livingroom. You could tell by the expression on her face that she had something to say and the men braced themselves to hear the bad news that they knew was coming. Matthew sat down on the arm of the couch, knowing his legs wouldn't hold out hearing that his little girl was dead. Sherman was leaning against the wall for support, and Luke was looking out the window, trying to block it all out. Luke looked at his mother when she walked in, and up until then he had hoped that Sophia had changed her mind.
"My job is done, sometimes I get to help a child through it and sometimes I help a soul find it's way." she said. "But this time I had a little help."
Just then a grayish-brown wolf entered the room to the seurprise of the men, who all knew the minute they saw it........Sophia was alive!!!
