Elizabeth's POV
I was sitting alone in a tree. I heard footsteps walking and I looked down. Syrus was there, and he was humming. I jumped down to say hi. He screamed like a child who was living a nightmare. "Sorry if I startled you," I apologized. Syrus backed up. "Stay away from me, whatever you are!" he yelled. My eyes grew wide. I looked normal, so why was he acting like this? He bolted out in a run, and he stopped at a deep river. It looked like he would try to swim away from me, which he knew he couldn't do. "Syrus, why are you acting like this?" He just screamed louder. I walked closer to him, when my eyes caught my reflection. I looked over, but it wasn't me I saw. It was a wolf. I screamed, but it came out as a snarling howl. Then I saw what should have been me, but it was a werewolf. I (it) lunged at him, and bit him. I just kept screaming as Syrus was attacked, but it was no use. No one could hear me, and I was floating away. "Syrus!" I screamed.
I woke up with a start, panting, tears streaming from my eyes. On a hunch, I ran to my dorm room after changing. No one was there. I picked up my PDA and called Jaden. "Hello," he said. I could tell he had been crying. "Jaden, it's Elizabeth. I had this dream last night and, well, is Syrus Ok?" "He should be, but last night he was attacked by a huge wolf! His shoulder is scratched and the thing bit through his arm to the bone!" 'Crap,' I thought. "I'll be there in a bit." I went to my suitcase and grabbed the one thing I had never unpacked, a potion that would cure a werewolf. However, it would only work if the werewolf hadn't transformed for the first time. I wrote a note and tied it to the bottle.
-a few hours later-
Syrus's POV
I woke up in the infirmary, a bandage on my shoulder and a cast on my arm. I remembered what had happened last night, and I saw the werewolf's snarling face in my mind. I shuddered and my eyes fell on a vile of purple liquid on the stand beside me. A note was attached. It said, Dear Syrus, I heard about what happened, and I think it would be best if you drank this. It is a potion that cures a werewolf as long as they have not transformed for the first time. I have a confession to make Syrus. I know this isn't the best time and you probably don't feel the same way, but, I love you Syrus. Signed, Elizabeth D. Princeton. "I do feel the same way, Elizabeth" I whispered a small tear running down my cheek.
