Chapter 17.
(Scott POV)
We were in the forest since Maddy, Shan and Tom found this Swing with a tire and We were out there as Shan was swinging on it.
Then Shan got off and Tom was going onto it.
Then Tom fell off.
"Tom," We head over.
"You alright?" Shan said.
"My knee!" Tom said.
"Stay there, Don't move it." Rhydian said.
"Are you alright?" Shan said.
"Someone's there. Someone spying on us.," Tom said.
As we all was looking for the person.
(WolfBlood Opening with Tyler Posey, Crystal Reed, Melissa Ponzio, And Adelaide Kane)
"This is where he was standing?" Shan said.
"Are you sure it was a He, Shan," I said.
"So was whoever it was spying on us?" Tom said.
"How am I supposed to tell from a few broken twigs?" Shan said. "Come on, Let's get out of here,"
Then Tom and Shan left, While Me, Maddy, Cora and Rhydian smelt.
"It's the same scent," Rhydian said.
"Wild wolf-blood," Maddy said.
"From the Woods, Whats it doing here," I said.
"Again," Cora said.
Then we walked to catch up with Tom and Shan. And gone to Bernie's.
"Did you have that Big game on Friday?" Maddy asked.
"Yeah, only the country cup final," Tom said."And we're playing Baron's Mill - That team we always lose to,"
"So your leg won't make a difference then," Rhydian said.
"Thanks Mate," Tom said.
"Who cares about Football? I want to know who the creep in the bushes was," Shan said.
"You seen her too, Have you?" Bernie said.
"Her," Tom said.
"The homeless woman that's been sleeping rough, She's been seen around the village these last few nights," Bernie said then We Headed home before School the Next day.

Cora, Maddy, Rhydian and I was at school at lunch time.
"If she hide from us when she wants, That means when we see her.." Rhydian said.
"It's because she wants us to," Maddy said.
Then Rhydian saw the ball about to hit the window and Rhydian rushed and catched it.
Then they went to get the Teams coach.
They tried kicking the ball at the net but Rhydian was thinking about something else.
Jimmy started to piss him off.
"Do it again," Rhydian said.
"Don't want t embarrass you," Jimmy said.
Then The Coach told him to do it again.
Then Jimmy kicks the ball and Rhydian catches it.
Then They wanted to see what I can do and Rhydian was still in nets.
Great, Wolf side let's go.
So I kicked the ball and it started to head straight for the net at the top left, Rhydian saw it and went for it before the ball changed course and went in on the Top right corner.
"Well?" Jimmy said.
"It looks like you got a new Goalie and a striker," Miss Graham said.
"You've got everyone thinking that Me and Scott will win the game now," Rhydian said.
"No one's expecting that," Tom said. "Well, Maybe they are, But you can't be any worse than Liam..."
"I heard that!" Liam said.
"You were meant too, Plus Tom's Right, You are shit at Goalie," I said.
"Yeah, it's great for you and your team - you've got what you want but what's in it for me?" Rhydian said.
"On the field, All the things you're not good at, the People you don't get on with, Fade away, You're part of something bigger. You're part of the team," Tom said.
"Yeah, That really sounds like me," Rhydian said.
Then After School, Me, Cora, Maddy was walking back to the house.
"Scott, Come on, You were good out there," Maddy said.
"He used his wolf side, Didn't you," Cora said.
"Yeah," I said. "It's how I played Lacrosse a lot,"

Then Next day we were in Jeffries class.
"And a reminder from Mrs. Fitzgerald - the school book group will be meeting every Wednesday. And that's it for notices," Jeffries said.
"We'll go back to the rope swing at dusk, The ground will be damper so it'll hold her scent better," Maddy said. "Rhydian, Rhydian, are you even listening?"
"Just forget we ever saw her," Rhydian said as the bell rang.
"What's with him?" Maddy said.
"No idea, but something is on his mind," I said.
Then Me and Cora went to get something to eat.
Then after school I went and got changed to go to Football Practise. But during it Rhydian was distracted by something but what.
After Practise Jimmy Pissed Rhydian off enough he quit the team. I changed out of the Gear and back into my normal clothes.
"What was that?" Tom said.
"No idea, Something has been on his mind since I seen him today," I said.
"How he's alright?" Tom said.
"Me, Too," I said. "Gotta go, Cora,"
"See you tomorrow," Tom said.
"Cya," I said and Left to find Cora sitting on the Bench.
"Hey," I said after getting close to her ears.
"Jeez, Scott," Cora said as she jumped.
"You alright?" I said.
"Yeah, Till you jumped me," Cora said.
"Okay, Coming," I said.

At Dinner Maddy told us about the Girl in the forest was Rhydian's Mom.
Once We finished I went up and got a shower and Into my PJ's. Then after about 20 mins Maddy came in when I was laying on bed.
"Scott, Mind if.." Maddy said.
"Come on," I said.
And Maddy climbed in next to me and Snuggled into me and fell asleep. I could tell she was Worried about Rhydian. To be honest me too.

The next day we had already got ready for school and was at school. But we didn't see him outside so we headed inside. Maddy went to sit with Tom and Shan and Cora and I sat down on the table behind. After a couple of mins before class started Rhydian came.
After break Maddy need to talk to me and Cora stayed with Shan. We headed to the black room.
"What is it?" I said.
"Rhydian going to run off with his Mom," Maddy said.
"What?" I said.
"He wants to be with her, She is teaching him things," Maddy said.
"What things," I said.
"Don't know, Rhydian won't tell me," Maddy said.
"We wait see if he tell us," I said.
"Shouldn't we not be talking him out of leaving," Maddy said.
"Mads, Its his Mom," I said.
"Okay," Come on," Maddy said and we left.
I needed to head to the changing rooms to get changed for the football match we have.
After I changed, Rhydian came in with the gear. Then After he got changed, we were heading out.
"We need to talk after this," I said.
"Yeah, Sure," Rhydian said.
"Hey, keep your cold, Use your other side," I said.
"Isn't that cheating?" Rhydian said.
"Not really," I said.
Then we were on the field. And the match started. And they went straight onto the attack and tried for goal but Rhydian stopped it. While Jimmy, Liam and Tom ran up I stayed at the midfield line ready if a good chance of scoring comes. But when they just took the ball off them and head for the goal. I kept them busy but they finally got passed me and tried to score again as Rhydian blocked it. Rhydian threw the ball to me and Tom was close to me.
"Tom!" I shouted getting his attention.
Then I passed the Ball over to him. Tom got passed all the defenders the took a shot at the Goal but it missed at the last second. They were attacking again before the Half time whistle went off. We got a drink and Finished it then the second half whistle went so we were going back on the pitch and Me and Tom were taking the kick off.
I passed the ball to Tom and He passed it to our Right Wing midfielder and they went towards the goal but the Defenders took the ball off them and started heading towards goal again as Jimmy took the ball away from the other team.
Then Near the end of the match there was a penalty kick. Rhydian saved it and I shouted for the ball and Tom was next to me running ahead. I got passed all the Defenders and Pass Tom the Ball who shots but the keeper blocks it but sends it towards me and I jumped in the air and side kicked towards the net and landing on my side before getting up and looked towards the net to see the Keeper Just miss the Ball as It went straight into the Goal.
As the whistle blew and We knew That we scored and won the Game.
"YES!" I said.
Then Tom ended up hugging me from behind and Then Rhydian got me next.
After that I was already changed and headed out to see Cora and Maddy. Maddy wanted to talk with Rhydian and Cora said That we see them at Bernie and Started walking there.
"You did great, Scott," Cora said.
"Thanks," I said.
"Even that side shot was good too," Cora said.
We were at Bernie's and Rhydian, Tom and Maddy came in.
So Rhydian decided to stay.
