I forgot this before so I'm putting it up now. Shadow belongs to Deathfighter8; Kida, Roger, and Sabrina belong to Bellice4ever95; Lin belongs to Tiffo; Elena belongs to WhatHurtsMeMost; finally, Cain was from Rain Addict CM.
***BELLA POV***
That night, I'm plagued by a recurring dream. I'm running through a forest in my wolf-form with four others. Caleb and Anthony are two of them, but I don't recognize the other two. My body is tense with panic as we run, and I can see smoke flowing over the trees in front of us. We eventually reach a clearing where a house is completely destroyed and being burned by the flames. I feel an intense ache in my chest, and I expect the dream to end, but then I find myself surrounded by darkness.
"Bella," an angelic voice calls, and I turn, but don't see anyone.
"Where are you?" I call out.
"I can't see you, Bella," the voice says. "You're being hidden."
"Where are you?" I repeat, feeling a strong urge to go to this person. "I'll come to you."
"I'll find you, Bella," the voice says, and I'm strangely comforted by that. "I promise."
"When?" I ask.
"Soon," is the answer, and I open my eyes to find myself on my sleeping-mat.
"Bella, are you ok?" Bree asks as she walks into our shared cabin.
"Yeah, just a weird dream," I answer before looking past her and out the door. "Is it time to go?"
"Yeah, we're just waiting on you," she answers, and I grab my backpack, slinging it over my shoulder before following Bree outside. Khalin, Shadow, Caleb, and Anthony are standing there along with Lin. Lin's back is to us, but she turns and looks at us with her dark-brown eyes, narrowed slightly due to her Asian heritage. Her long, black hair is loose, and she looks older than her age of nineteen.
"Are you two ready to go?" Khalin asks as we approach the group.
"Yeah," I answer as I hand my bag to Bree who places it on her back.
Anthony looks at me in questioning before pulling me into a hug.
"The dream again?" he asks in a low whisper.
"Yeah," I sigh as I hug him back.
"I'm sorry, Bella," he says.
"I know," I reply, and he pulls away.
"Be careful ok," he commands and I nod. "Come back safe."
"I will," I reply right before Caleb nearly tackles me in a hug.
"Yeah, come back soon, Izzy," Caleb laughs, and I smile slightly as I hug him back.
"You just stay out of trouble," I reply, and he laughs.
"Please, this is me we're talking about," he grins.
"Good point," I reply as we separate before I step beside Shadow.
"Alright, let's go," Khalin commands, and I quickly shift into my wolf-form.
When I'm done, I shake my fur before looking at the others. Where Shadow had been, now stands a giant, silver wolf with the same eye color as Shadow's, and a noticeable scar runs over his left eye. I look to where Lin was and see a giant, white tiger standing there, looking at us with dark-brown eyes. I turn my gaze to Khalin and Bree who each have backpacks on. Khalin nods at us before quickly running towards the forest. The rest of us follow at high speed.
*SCENE SHIFT*
We have been traveling for a few hours when I start to hear the roar of running water.
"We'll stop here so you three can change," Khalin says as he reaches for a backpack and tosses some clothes to Shadow.
Bree grabs some clothes as well and tosses them to Elena and me. I catch mine in my teeth before moving to phase behind a tree. When I'm changed into my shorts and tank-top, I walk back to the others before we continue walking on foot. Eventually, we leave the dense forest and stop at the edge of a large clearing. The face of a large rock wall is opposite of us, and a large waterfall falls from it before flowing off into a small river. A small streak of pain shoots through my head, and I wince before placing my hand to my temple. I close my eyes as a feeling of light-headedness overcomes me. When I reopen them, the clearing has changed dramatically. The waterfall is smaller and falls into a crystal-clear pond while flowers are scattered across the once-barren field. I turn as I hear someone speak and find a shocking sight. I'm staring at myself standing beside some other girl who looks like a human pixie. Wait, her eyes are gold?
'She's a vampire,' I realize.
"There's a cave behind the waterfall where you can change," I hear the other me state as she nods her head towards the waterfall.
"What; not going to join me?" the pixie asks with a smile.
"I already have mine on," the other me answers as she moves her shirt a little and shows the string to her top piece.
"Too bad," the pixie giggles before walking off.
I watch as she walks towards the waterfall and disappears through it.
'Is this my past?' I wonder before I start hearing something.
"Bella," I can faintly hear my name being called, and the scene starts to fade.
My eyes flutter open, and I see the others looking at me in worry. I quickly glance around the clearing to see it back to normal before turning back to them.
"Sorry, what?" I ask.
"I asked if you're feeling ok," Bree answers. "You seemed out of it."
"Yeah, I'm fine," I reply. "I was just thinking."
"What about?" she asks.
"It was nothing," I answer, and she drops it.
I can see Khalin staring at me from the corner of my vision, but he doesn't say anything. Instead, he turns back to the clearing and starts walking. The rest of us follow behind him, no one saying anything. We're almost at the waterfall when someone steps through it. I almost gasp when I recognize him as one of the people from my dream.
"Khalin, how are you, old friend?" the guy smiles as he greets us.
"Leon, it's nice to see you again," Khalin smiles as the two share a bro hug.
"And these must be some of your squad?" Leon asks, and Khalin nods.
"Yes, these are Shadow, Lin, Bree, and Bella," he introduces. "Everyone, this is Leon. He's one of Natalie Ravenwood's top guards."
"Please, don't say it like that. It speaks too highly of me," Leon chuckles softly. "I just prefer being called a Seer that serves under Natalie."
"It's nice to meet you, Leon," Bree smiles.
"It's nice to meet you all too," he replies. "Now, why don't I show you all inside?"
"Thank you," Khalin replies as we walk towards the waterfall.
"Well, without further ado, I'd like to welcome you all to one of the Wild Hearts' secret bases," Leon says right before we pass through the waterfall.
Ok, I need some OCs (vampire, shifter, human, etc.). So, if anyone has any suggestions, I'll be glad to have them, and they'll most likely show up through the story. Again, I'll try to be better with the updates, so, until next time, l8er.
