Hello, blazingalex here. I'm actually trying to write a new series, or at least plotline. Yes, I mean this one. And now, time to address a review.

To The Mighty Trubbish,

Meh.

Chapter 3: How I Came To Be

Rain penetrated my skin and fur. A bolt of lightning lit up the dark, gloomy sky. My feet splash in the mud as I run home from that horrible scene. I'm cold and scared. Scared of what was going to happen to me.

'I didn't mean to,' I thought to myself. 'I tried to avoid him, but I couldn't. I killed him.' I ran inside my house and slammed the door behind me. I leaned up against it to catch my breath.

"You thought you could escape me," a raspy voice said from deep inside my house.

"No!" A Mightyena stepped forward from the shadows.

"You must pay for what you've done!" She chanted something in some weird language before cackling. My body started to tingle on the inside. "Now you will have to suffer through losses forever!" I dropped to the ground.

"What did you do to me?" She just cackled again and left, leaving me alone on the ground. I closed my eyes as tears started to fall onto the wooden floor. What's going to happen to me?

A loud thunderclap woke me up. I jolted upright on the couch, a blanket covering my exposed body.

"Zoey, it's okay," Jenny whispered to me, pulling me in for a hug. "It's just another storm It'll be alright." I held onto her for comfort as I cried from my nightmare. I've relived that moment too many times, why won't it go away? "What's wrong?"

"I need this curse broken," I said to her, tears forming in my eyes. "I need it broken now." She started to pet my hair in an attempt to soothe me.

"Don't worry, I'm here to help." I sniffled into her shoulder. "How did this happen?" I looked up into her eyes.

"Well," I started, wiping away some tears. "It all began back in 1898..."

*Flashback*

The wind howled through the air as the clouds started to darken. I hopped onto my horse to try to beat the storm and get home.

"Hyah!" I screamed, kicking my horse slightly to get him moving. He kicked up dust as he galloped away from my father's grave.

A few raindrops fell on my head as I made my way back into town. As I bounced, I saw a male Houndoom crossing the path. I tried to avoid him, but he kept walking in my way. My horse ran into him, knocking all of us to the ground.

"No!" A woman screamed. As I shook myself off from the fall, I saw a female Mightyena run over to the Houndoom, kneeling down next to him and crying. Blood flowed from his body into the dirt.

"Oh, dear," I whispered to myself. The Mightyena looked up and glared at me with hate.

"You! You did this!" She stood up and started wagging a finger at me.

"N-no! I didn't mean to!"

"You'll pay for this!" I turned around and started sprinting towards the town. The rain started to fall much harder, soaking me.

*End Flashback*

"...and then when I got back home," I told Jenny. "She was waiting for me. She said something like an incantation and left. That's how I became like this."

"Oh, you poor thing," Jenny said, hugging me again. I clung onto her, crying from having to tell my tale. "Maybe if you talk to her, she can reverse the spell."

"She's probably dead."

"Then we go visit her grave." She looked down at me. "We will break this curse. I promise." She leaned forward and kissed my forehead.

I crept through the halls of my wooden house. The floorboards creaked underneath my feet, trying to support my weight. Thunder cracked throughout the town as lightning lit up the sky. My candle flickered as I walked. Mist started to creep into the hallway. I reached the end of the hall and opened a door. The room was dark. I held my candle up higher for better lighting.

"You'll pay!" A raspy voice echoed. "You did this!" There was a loud cackling surrounding me. Panicking, I dropped my candle and ran out of the room, darkness surrounding me instantly.

"G-go away!" I screamed. "Leave me alone!"

"You'll suffer over and over again! Ah-hahaha!"

"No! I didn't mean to! It's not my fault!"

"Cursed forever! Suffer like I did!"

"No!"

"No!" I sat upright in my bed. It was the dead of night. Jenny was fast asleep next to me, her tank top strap sliding off her furry shoulder. Another nightmare. Goddam it. I looked at the clock and scoffed. 2:57. I climbed out of bed and went downstairs for a bottle of water.

I stared out the window as I sipped my water. Water droplets slid down the glass.

"I'm so sorry," I whispered. "I didn't mean to. I know your pain." I took another sip and put the bottle away, heading back to bed.

I climbed under the covers and curled up into a ball next to Jenny. I could hear her shift in her sleep. Her arm fell onto my body as her ear drooped onto my face. Finally some comfort. I knew that I was going to be saved. That I would be mortal once more.
