THE BOYS
"Come on Haru, stop going so slow."
"Shut up you damn Cat!"
"Both of you shut it!"
"You shut it!" Kyo and Haru yelled at the same time. They've been walking for about 2 hours now, but for some reason everything seems unfamiliar.
"You stupid Cat I think we're going the wrong way!"
"How the hell would you know you damn cow? You get lost coming back from the bathroom!"
"That was one time!" Kyo and Haru kept on bickering while Daren started to fake cry.
"Why, why? Why am I with them! Rain I'm going to fuckin kill you!" that seemed to bring Haru out of his mood.
"Don't you fuckin talk about Rain, you're just a childhood friend nothing more."
"Nothing more? Did she cry on your shoulder? I wonder, does she ever confide in you? Do you even know what she fears the most? Or what her favorite animal is?"
"Of course I do, her favorite animal is a cat, and she fears being alone."
"Ha ha, oh Haru how you do amuse me, her favorite animal is the wolf, and she's never scared of being alone, she loves being alone, she fears not being able to love anyone."
"She loves me!" Haru spun around to face Daren.
"Are you so sure?" Haru and Daren just stood there, unmoving. One face with amusement, the other with hatred, tinged with worry. Kyo, not paying attention, kept moving till he was soon out of sight.
RAIN
I opened my eyes, not recognizing where I was. Is it just me or does this happen a lot? I sat up to try and get a better look.
"I see you're up young one, how do you feel?" I looked over to the corner of the hut to see an old woman with bright yellow eyes, wise, yet she seemed as if she was hiding something.
"Where am I? Who are you?"
"Questions questions, you are at Mt. Higarasu, yes I know it doesn't really look like a mountain. I am the old one, I already know who you are. The sky told me." the old one? This is the woman I was looking for? Do I tell her I need her help? No, must appear normal. What would a normal person do?
"The sky told you? What else did it tell you?" she smiled at this, a small smile somewhere between a grimace and a grin.
" She's named after the sky's of water, she's come of pain and reeks of death. If she comes she'll bring freedom, but with every good there is a bad." I pondered what it could have meant, I'll bring freedom, but with every good there is a bad? Maybe this is what cat was talking about. Freedom from what though? But if I do, do something good then I'll do something bad. Ugh god damn it!
"Freedom from what?"
"That my girl you have to find out for yourself, I'll leave my son with you now. Talen!" she walked out of the room, and in walked a boy around my age with strange yellow, black hair; and the same eyes as his mother. He walked with the air of a king, oh this will be funny. He brought in a tray with some soup.
"Mother told me to bring this to you." He put the tray on my lap and just stepped back as he stared at me.
"Is there something wrong?" this seemed to break him of his daze.
"Not everyone wants you here" with that he left, closing the door quite loudly. What the fuck did that mean? Well he can go shove a stick up his ass, cuz I'm going to get these idiot's their freedom so I can leave. Now I just need to find out what I'm supposed to free them from. Ugh. Well only one way to find out.
I slowly got up from the bed, pushing the soup aside, standing up I could see that my clothes were in tatters. I looked for my pack and brought out some jeans, and a tank, and changed into them. Remember I had to appear normal. Sighing I walked out of the room to explore. That's funny; no one else is in the hut. I opened the door to go outside, and was amazed at what I found. It was a huge village, but oddly enough, no one was outside. I could see some children looking out their windows at me, their mothers trying to keep them away. I was used to this so it didn't really bother me. I continued to walk down through the town but stopped when I heard a wolfs cry. There shouldn't be any wolfs this close to the village especially when its not all that dark out. It's only around 7 at the latest. What's even odder is that I could only sense one wolf, usually they travel in packs.
Sighing I continued further, that's when I felt something tug on my leg. I swung around only to see a small little girl with strange white hair, and grey eyes.
"What are you doing here little one."
"You must be careful, coming out here alone, the wolf isn't as nice as people think, in we go, don't come out, not until you see day break." With that she ran down into the village again, but for some reason, I could hardly make her out, as if she suddenly disappeared. Nah, maybe there's just some fog tonight. I started to think about what she said and I realized that maybe this wolf is the answer. I walked back to the Old Ones hut, to see if I could get some answers. I walked in to see her on a rocking chair, but her son nowhere in site.
"Old one, I have some questions, why do you hide from the wolf?"
"We all fear what we don't know, this wolf isn't an ordinary wolf, it hunts alone, and each night, it takes one of our people. Lately there hasn't been any victims because we are all staying in the huts, but eventually he will find a way in." she went back to rocking back and forth, leaving me to my own thoughts.
I went back into the room so I could think. Why would the wolf stay here? Usually when an animal can't get what it wants, it goes some place else to get it. How comes I cant sense it? Or feel it? What ever my powers are supposed to do. Not only is the wolf suspicious, these people are too. Especially in the way they look. This is very weird. Tomorrow night I'll talk to the people, and then at night, I'll become the wolf, and see what I can find out. But maybe I should talk to Wolf and figure out whatshe thinks.
