A/N: At the beginning of this fanfic I knew exactly how many chapters there were going to be and exactly what was going to happen in them. Now I have no idea. I know what's going to happen with shay's mum as it hasn't changed but as to everything else, who knows? I'm starting to get an idea though. I hope you like it so far.

What had I been thinking going running with the five? By doing so I had gotten their hopes up and now I couldn't get rid of them. Now they were calling everyday and trying to get me to run with them every night. I had avoided them easily enough but it would be hard to avoid them tonight as it was the full moon. The whole pack would be running together tonight.

"You nearly ready?" called Ebony from the next room. It was already 10:30 and we were meeting at the inn at 11:00.

When I was finally ready I ran downstairs and Ebony and my father began to make our way to the inn. As we got closer I began to smell the strong scent of loup garou I could smell the anticipation –the need to run- thick in the air. The moon wouldn't be full for another half an hour but already I could feel the change curling and stretching inside of me. When we reached the clearing behind the inn we went to join the pack. My father went to mingle with his age mates, which left Ebony and I with the five and Vivian.

"Where's Gabriel?" Ebony asked Vivian. Although Ebony well knew she had no chance with Gabriel-he was after all taken by Vivian- she still liked to look at him.

Vivian flicked her hair, "He's coming later." She hadn't had much time for us since we'd arrived. Ebony said she didn't like us, but I think she was just dealing with some stuff right now.

Gregory looked agitated "what do you want with him anyway? We're here." He looked down at ebony in a brooding way that he knew made her melt. She giggled and flirted back as they walked further into the woods.

Finn didn't seem pleased with all the attention Ebony was paying to Gregory. He was in the middle of glaring in the direction they had left when he suddenly turned to face me. He looked at me and smiled seductively, which was something that I hadn't actually seen him do before- he was usually more of an evil grinner. I new what he was thinking without him having to say. I glared at him and strode away with a flick of my hips over to where Vivian was now standing.

"Everything ok?" I asked

"Yeah, I'm just itching for the change is all." She looked off towards the woods and I knew there was something bothering her, something besides the desire of the change. I would be troubled too if my new mate was my mum's ex. Somehow I didn't think that was what was bothering her. I decided to leave it be, it was common knowledge that if Vivian didn't want to talk about something it was not a good idea to push it. I also figured it was none of my damn business.

I looked around hoping to see Ebony emerge from the woods so I'd have someone to talk to but instead I saw Willem and Ulf motioning me to come join them. I looked around once again hoping to see Ebony but it seemed she was still behind the trees. I reluctantly walked towards Willem and Ulf. Willem was leaning against a rotting post that used to belong to a fence, he was smoking and swatting at Ulf who laughed as he dodged Willem's blows.

Willem looked over at me through his long eyelashes, "What are you doing all alone Shay? Want me to keep you company tonight?" He smiled and winked.

"You wish, puppy." I said, and Ulf started laughing in Willem's face. He was so busy laughing that he didn't manage to dodge Willem's blow in time. Willem hit him across the back of the head and Ulf whimpered but continued to laugh.

Suddenly the atmosphere changed. Everyone was excited-anxious even- I could feel the anticipation grow. I could smell it flowing off everyone in the clearing. I looked around and saw that Gabriel had arrived, he was making his way towards the end of the clearing where Vivian was waiting and everyone was looking.

I felt something brush my side; it was Willem's shirt, he had thrown it at me. He then proceeded to throw his pants at me. Everyone was beginning the change. I began the change too, finally letting it rip through me.

The run was lead by Gabriel and Vivian. After a while everyone began to break off into their smaller groups or pairs. Most people ran with their mates but of course I ran with Ebony and subsequently the five, who managed to sniff us out.

After a while I got sick of the muzzle nudges and love bites compliments of the five and decided to go off on my own. I fell a little behind Ebony and the five and then ran off in a different direction, hoping they hadn't noticed. They had. Finn and Willem had at least. I heard their quick pursuit behind me. They weren't running at their full speed, clearly teasing me. I sped up, and they sped up. The chase was on. If there is one thing I love, it's a chase in wolf form- even if I am the one being chased.

I dodged trees and ran through streams as fast as I could but eventually Finn and Willem caught up with me. One of them pounced from behind me and knocked me to the ground. I got back up and turned to face them. Finn gave me a big toothy grin and Willem moved silently behind me. They started to circle me, glaring at each other. I realised the chase wasn't over as far as they were concerned. They were going to fight for me. Not fight for me as a mate, just fight to win the chase. I wasn't interested in waiting around to see who would win, so I ran off in the direction of home. Behind me in the distance I heard snarling noises as Willem and Finn began to fight.

When I got back to the house the sun was just beginning to rise. I changed back to human form in my backyard. I ran up stares to my room and closed the door ready to fall asleep. Once I was dressed I heard howling coming from outside.

Out my window I could see Willem and Finn changing back to human form. They must have come to watch me just as I was changing back. Perverts, I thought to myself. I closed my curtains and fell onto my bed, listening to the human thumping of two hormonal pups running home-naked.


A/N: This was a little short but I justwanted a chapter of Shay and the pack running on the full moon. I'll be putting another chapter up soon, maybe a scene of them at school like someone suggested. What do you think? The chapter after that will reveal what actually happened with Shay's mum!

BTW- I didn't have time to edit this so sorry if there are a few mistakes!

Please review with any suggestions or whatever.
