I woke up in a hospital bed. There was still a numb pain in my chest. I struggled to get up but I couldn't move. I looked around the room. There was a mirror on my right. As the thought dawned on me I turned to look into the mirror. Luckily, my hair was black again. I sighed. Had it all been a dream? My parents walked in next. They came up to the bed and said. "Hey, how are you doing champ. Listen everything is fine. Luna explained everything to us. It's still taking some time to sink in, what with talking dogs and all. He, he." Dad laughed nervously. "Wolves dad they're wolves." I said tiredly, my head hurt too much to think. I looked towards the door and a girl peeked in. My parents saw her as well and my mom said, "You know she stayed here the whole night. She wouldn't leave your side for anything." She kissed my forehead and they both walked away. As they left the girl walked in, or should I say the woman for she was like 20 or so. It was weird for me because she was very cute. Now it all made sense why I had had a thing for her before when she was a dog … never mind.
She came and sat on the bed. She smiled and licked my face. I just stared at her, as I turned white. I tried to shift my body to conceal my 'stiffness' smiled slyly. "You used to like it before." She said pouting. "Yeah well before it was a little different." She stretched and said, "Yeah I guess it's a little more awkward this way?" I changed the subject "You have a lot of explaining to do." She smiled "Yes I guess I do." Then she started to explain who she was and how Loki had killed her family. "It is said that when the world was young, wolves descended from heaven and settled the earth. Humans are descended from wolves. However, our own children turned against us. "Yeah, I don't buy that." I said skeptically. She made the cutest mad face ever and stuck her tongue out at me. "So there was a great war between the wolves and the humans. And to this day humans continue to hunt us." She sighed heavily.
"Ok so where does that leave me?" I asked. "There is a prophecy that says the white wolf spirit that was once the leader of the pack would come to earth to lead the wolves into paradise. It is also said that he would be born of humans not wolves. See the irony?" She said excitedly. "No I don't," I said matter-of-factly. She looked aggravated "The white wolf is here to protect us while the humans want to harm us so there you go, irony." I stared at her and then blinked. "Wait what, that's it? Why me? Why did you call me my love and all that, I mean isn't there more? Why did Loki try to kill me?" I wanted to know everything. She said "Loki was just power-hungry and crazy, he figured he could consume your energy and increase his own." I thought for a while. "Ok and why did you call me my love?" She got uncomfortably close to me and said "Sometimes when you are with a person for a long time, you just fall for them. You forget rules and boundaries, even if they are from a different species." I looked at her awkwardly. I turned red and she smiled. She held me up and gave me a long kiss. "Wait, whoa, hey lady. I mean you're like thirty or something I'm just fourteen." "Are you blind? I'm only 21! Are you calling me old?" she screamed and then turned around and sulked "I am old." She said very softly. "Look I'm sorry I really didn't mean to offend you. But you do understand what I mean?" I said, knowing that between us there could be nothing. "Yeah I know what you mean Kiba." She said as tears filled her eyes. She got up quickly and wiped her eyes. She transformed into a wolf and started for the door as if hiding her pain. She turned her head and said, "Goodbye Kiba, you were a good owner, and you will be a great chosen one. I loved you, I always will." She said. "I wish you luck on your journey." And she was out the door. How much I wish I could've run after her. How much I wish I had said the things I felt. In the distance, I heard a howl. I only wish I could have told her that I loved her too.
