But this time the wolf just broke out. I ran off after a howl. My nose smelled some animal dying. The wolf made me move fast. As I came closer to the smell, my human mind started fighting. I suddenly stopped. My hands flew to my head as I cried out a howl.
"Got to fight it. Got to fight it. Got to fight it." I cried over and over again. The Smiths found me and saw me. Then I just bolted again but away from everything. "I got to do this by myself." I thought. After awhile, it was dawn and the moon disappeared. I turned back into a human again.
"Oh great! I got myself lost! Now what!" Boy, was I mad at myself. But then I came up on a camp. Everyone there except for two people was asleep.
"You look like you could us a rest, dear. Come have something to drink," said a young western looking woman. She was sitting next to an older man.
"Yeah. You look like you haven't slept for days. Are you alone?" asked the elder man. He gave me a cup of hot chocolate.
"Thank you, kind people. Yeah, I'm alone. I was running and got lost." I answered between each sip of the warm beverage.
"Here, take my sleeping bag. Sleep a while. You could use it," said the woman. And I did sleep. It was almost sunset when I woke up. When I opened my eyes, I saw a girl, about my age, looking at me.
"Hey, sleepy head. You're finally awake. Here, my mama told me to give this to you." She handed me a bowl of beef stew.
"Thanks. I haven't eaten since 6 last night." I took the bowl and ate the soup. "I'm Kerri. What is your name?"
"Jessica, but you can call me Jesse." She invited me to play.
"Sorry, but I can't. I need to find my way home. Do you have a map with you?" I asked hopefully.
"Sure. Here you go." Jesse handed me a map of the area. I looked at it for my town. It was about 50 miles away. I planned on making it that night.
"How do you run 50 miles at night? You need, like the powers of a wolf or something. No human can go that far in one night." Jessica was laughing at my idea. But what did she know about me.
"Tell your mom I said thanks for the soup. It really helped. See ya." Before she could say any thing else, I was gone.
I ran like the wind for 5 miles. Just then, the moon came out. It was my first full moon as a werewolf, and I didn't have a drop of potion on me. This was going to be my biggest test ever. No potion, full moon, the fact that I ran away, and the fact that I was a werewolf all added up to the biggest test of my live. (Well, maybe after state testing.)
I transformed as usual and this time I, the human, had complete control. Now, to my territory. That was easy, for some odd reason. The people with guns were the hardest part. So, I climbed into the trees and hoped from tree to tree as not to be seen. I saw people like my dad and Wan go underneath me. I wished that I could jump down to them and have them not shoot me but I couldn't.
So I just started to go where I always meet the Smiths for lessons. Sure enough, they were there. I jump down to them. They weren't scared. But the sound did attract people to the area. One person shot me in the leg. I had to howl.
Hope you enjoyed! Review please!
