Hungry Like A Wolf
Chapter 2
It was the talk of the day. How the new girl Rose Silver had given Mr. Halloway an attitude then pushed that girl over. "I think she's dangerous," said one student. Another said, "She's going to be in detention all year 'round," The third said "Don't look now, but here she comes," All eyes turned towards Rose. She was walking down the middle of the hallway without a care in the world. Her slim body was swaying back and forth. Her long red hair swayed with her body. Her brown eyes were narrowed into slits looking for her next victim. Everybody in the hallways looked at Rose walking down the hall.
Rose turned around and glared evilly at everybody who was looking at her, (which was about the entire school). "What!" she screamed. All the students went back to what they were doing. That is more like it Rose thought as she continued to her next class which was science.
After school, Rose was waling home thinking about her day. "I think I'm going to like it here," she said. When Rose arrived home, her mother was waiting for her on the porch. "How was school dear?" she asked. "It would've been better if she was there," said Rose walking past her mom and though the front door. Mrs. Silver went in after her. Mrs. Silver hugged her daughter. Rose returned the hug with tears in her eyes.
Clark returned home to the farm and immediately got to work. He picked up the stakes he was supposed to put into the ground. He slammed them into the ground no problem. "Hey Clark!" said Martha and Jonathan at the same time. "Hey mom! Hey dad!" said Clark waving. Martha and Jonathan went into the house to do some chores.
Around 7:00, Clark came in all dirty from doing his chores. "So how was school?" asked Jonathan. "It was fine. We got a new girl in my class. Her name is Rose Silver. She has attitude problem. She gave one to my teacher and pushed a girl down," he finished. "Whoa," said Jonathan. "You better stay away from her," he said. "What else do you know about her?" asked Martha. "Not much," replied Clark. "She just moved here recently. From what I can tell, she has no siblings," said Clark. "Well, Clark, go shower. Dinner will be ready in about ½ hour," said Martha sweetly. "Okay mom," said Clark super speeding upstairs.
Clark very fast ate dinner. "Slow down Clark," said Martha. "What's your hurry?" asked Jonathan. "I'm sorry. I have to meet Lana and Chloe at the Talon. They want to run something by me," he said. "Bye," Clark super sped out the door. "Teenagers," said Jonathan. Martha chuckled.
About 3 miles away, Rose was transforming in the woods. Her black fur and tail came sprouted from her body. In no time, a 4 legged wolf took her place. Rose, in werewolf form, was out and about looking for someone to eat. Where are all the young kids like me? she wondered. Rose saw a car fly by. Those are teenagers, she thought running full speed after the car.
The car stopped at an old theatre. Rose read the sign "The Talon." Rose growled. Slowly, she mad her way out of the shadows. She crossed the street and pounced into the Talon breaking the glass. She let out a loud howl and stared to descend on the kids. Every single person made a run for the door, but not until Rose jumped in front of them, preventing them from escaping. Oh, no you don't! she screamed in her mind.
Lana and Chloe had taken refuge upstairs in the apartment. "What is that thing!" asked Lana. "I think it's a wolf," replied Chloe. "but, there are no wolves around these parts," said Lana. "Obviously there is," said Chloe.
"I'm calling the sheriff," said Lana. She took out her cell phone and dialed. "Sheriff's office," said a female voice on the other line. "Please sheriff. It's Lana Lang. There is some kind of wolf inside the Talon, please hurry!" Screaming was all the two girls heard before all went silent.
In the middle of the Talon, there was one body mutilated. Rose was having dinner, so to speak. Everyone else had rushed out the Talon and into their cars headed for home. Clark saw the damage and super sped inside. The sight was not pleasant. Rose was eating a body. "Oh, My God," said Clark. Rose heard him and looked up. Her mouth all full of blood. She growled at him. Then flashing lights came. Rose growled and pounced out the door with incredible speed. "Clark," said the Sheriff. "What happened here?" she asked before spotting the body. Clark was speechless. "What the hell!" said the sheriff before calling the ambulance to come and take the body away.
Chloe and Lana had come down. They had heard voices. Clark hugged both of the crying girls. "What happened?" he asked. "Everything was going fine then this big black wolf crashed through the doors and started to….." Lana sobbed unable to control herself. "Clark," said Chloe. "I think that was a werewolf," she said. "What?" said Lana and Clark at the same time. "I know it sounds foolish, but take a look at this," she said while taking out a folder form her bag.
Clark, Chloe, and Lana talked after the sheriff and the cops left. "This is Rose's file. Look at it." Inside there were newspaper articles. Clark found one that was very interesting. "Listen to this," said Clark;
"Two local twin girls were found lying in the middle of the street. 17 year old Rose and Celine Silver were brutally attacked by what appears to be a wild animal. Maybe a bear. Claw marks were found on both bodies. Rose Silver had suffered a mast amount of blood loss, but was still alive. Her sister Celine was dead at the scene. This falls into the category of another attack in this once sleepy and quiet town of Lovesing, Texas."
Clark finished with a sigh. "So, Rose had a twin sister. The two were out, they got attacked by a bear or wolf or something. Her sister died. She survived. So that means that Rose Silver is a werewolf?" asked Chloe. "Wait, isn't tonight a full moon?" asked Lana. The trio went outside and looked up into the sky. A full moon was all they saw in the starless black sky. "I think we got ourselves a werewolf," said Clark very seriously.
