Chapter 6: Normal…?

Ren sat up, watching Horo's tent. He had been told to keep an eye on Horo for twenty-four hours and to see if anything out of the ordinary happened. Ren had been watching Horo's every move without being noticed for hours. He found himself quite good at spying since he had done it previously to his opponents in the shaman tournament 18 months ago. Horo sat in his tent quivering, not daring to go outside. He grabbed his covers and roughly pulled them up to his neck.

'Why is Ren watching me? I know he is… I can feel it… sense it… but how, I don't know. I just know he's watching me.'

Horo desperately wanted to go to the toilet outside, but the fear of him doing something he might regret held him back.

'Wait, what the hell am I doing! I don't even know if it's me who's doing all these killings, besides; the man said it was a beast, not a young boy! This is stupid.'

Ren's eyelids got heavy and he was about to drift off when he saw Horo exit his tent.

He watched closely as Horo hesitated, then looked at the bright moon. Horo sighed thankfully at the crescent-shaped moon and walked over to a bush. Ren needed only hear the zipper come undone for him to poke his head back inside his tent and staying there until he was sure Horo had finished. Ren then saw Horo go quietly back inside.

'I don't get it, why didn't anything happen? His DNA, its different, its- wait, the moon!' Ren looked at the moon, so big, so bright, so not full.

Unicorn13564: Sorry it was way short, but again, it was supposed to be. I know a lot of my chapters are short, sorry bout that. REVIEW!

P.S: gift-of-the-elves, check your emails. Lol.
