Jake:Ahoy! Welcome to another chapter of this Halloween fanfic! Nellie couldn't be here to host this chapter, because I totally didn't throw her off a cliff (Chuckles sinisterly). This is where it'll get really freaky now. So hand on tight, and prepared to be terrified. Enjoy! Oh yeah... Nellie doesn't own us.

Chapter 4: Boy by day, wolf by night

Just only seconds after Jake had thrown a fit in the room, it seem that he moved his rampage into the kitchen. Izzy, and Cubby had decided to check it out while Skully stayed in the room.

Both were afraid to step foot into the kitchen as they heard the noise inside. But they had to find out why Jake was so angry. Carefully, Izzy opened the door to the kitchen and the three walked in. As they did, a plate was thrown at them. They ducked out of the way as the plate made crashing contact with the wall. "Izzy. I'm scared. What if he tries to kill us again?" Cubby whimpered. Izzy patted him on the head. "Don't worry."

The kids moved closer to the stove, and what they saw made them scream.

It was Jake, but he looked different. His hair was longer and had grown around his chin, making it look like he had a beard. His eyes were a mix between blue and green, sort of yellow. His ears were pointed, his nails were sharper, almost like claws, and the most scary thing, was that he had fangs. Jake growled at his friends as he, on his hands and knees, advanced towards them. That's when the others had realized what happened.

Jake had turnd into a...

"WOLF!" Cubby yelled in fright. With that, Jake leaped at them. Cubby immediately moved out of the way, but Izzy was cornered. "J-J-J-Jake... you wouldn't h-h-hurt m-m-me... I-I-I'm y-y-y-y-your f-f-friend..." She stuttered. But Jake sneered and made an attempt to claw at her, but she thought fast and used her pixie dust to fly away. Jake growled again, and made a beeline for Cubby. The small pirate boy stood in his spot, too frightened to move. Before Jake could even try to hurt him. Izzy had grabbed him, and they flew out of the kitchen. The two floated down to the floor, sighing.

"Phew! That was close-" Cubby started to say until they heard another growl. They turned to see Jake running at them. They screamed and ran away. Soon it was a chase all around the hideout.

"Izzy! What happened to Jake? Why is he a wolf?" Cubby asked as they ran.

"I don't know!" Izzy responded. She looked over her shoulder and yelped as Jake was getting closer to them. Izzy and Cubby ran as fast as they could, but they knew they were no match for Jake's newly fast speed. His growling could easily be translated as: 'I'm gonna kill you.' As the two younger pirates turned a corner, Cubby tripped. This gave Jake the perfect and grueling chance to swipe his claws against Cubby's back.

Izzy gasped as she saw Cubby's vest and shirt tear from the claws. Cubby screamed in pain as the claws tore into his skin. There was a hidden smirk within Jake's sneer as he approached Izzy. The pirate girl back away from the wolf version of her friend. As much as she wanted to help Cubby, she didn't know how she was going to get past Jake. "Uh... nice, wolfy... n-n-nice wolfy..." she whimpered as she closed her eyes, and felt Jake grab her arm.

"P-P-Please... don't..." She whimpered once again as Jake dragged one claw down her arm, leaving a thin line of blood. She opened her eyes and could clearly see that evil smirk hidden within that scary sneer. She desperately tried to free her arm, but Jake had a strong grip. Izzy could feel tears stream down her cheeks as Jake proceeded to make another cut on her arm. She tried to distract herself, but the pain was unbearable. She looked down at her pixie dust, and had an idea.

Carefully, she reached into the small bag, and flung a handful of pixie dust at Jake's face. Jake yelped and let go of Izzy's arm, trying to rub the dust out of his eyes. Izzy immediately ran past him and over to Cubby, who was crying from the pain from his back. The eleven year old helped the eight year old off of the floor, and they both ran the opposite direction, just as Jake recovered from the pixie dust. Enraged, he ran after them once again.

It felt like the chase was going on for an eternity. Everytime Izzy and Cubby tried to outrun Jake, Jake would just appear in front of them from another hall. When they tried to hide, he would just find them. Soon, both were thinking about giving up and letting Jake catch them, but they didn't want to die. When they rounded another corner, they stopped, panting. They didn't see Jake anymore, so they must've lost him. "Izzy... what do you think happened to Jake?" Cubby asked timidly. Izzy shrugged. "I'm not sure... first he acts strange, and now he's a wolf. But what kind of wolf is he?"

"Do you think he's just a regular wolf?" Cubby asked again. Izzy once again. "I'm not sure. I can't tell. But we have to find out what happened to him, or else we're goners."

Just as she said that, a howl was heard around the corner. Knowing it was Jake, Izzy and Cubby made a run for it. But they only made it a few steps before they came face to face with a closed door. Izzy knew that it was a closet behind that door, and that they could probably hide in it. But once again, Jake would probably find them as he approached his friends slowly, growling. "I-I-Izzy... I think now's the perfect time to hide in the closet..." Cubby whispered to her. Izzy shook her head in response. "I've got a better idea..."

Just as Jake was about to leap at the two, Izzy whistled. "Oh Jake... I think there's a nice juicy stake in the closet..."

Jake immediately started to run at them. As soon as he got close, Izzy opened the door to the closet, and Jake ran in. Izzy quickly closed the door before Jake could run out. When she locked, the wolf boy started banging on the door, growling in a way that could be translated as: 'Let me out!'

"Was there really a steak in the closet?" Cubby asked.

"No. I just needed to get Jake away from us... I think we may need to keep him in there for the night..." Izzy responded. The both of them sighed in relief, and walked back to the room, where Skully was waiting for them. "There you are. I was wondereing when you guys would come back. Where's Jake?"

Izzy and Cubby looked at each other, and then back at Skully. "Skully... Jake is a wolf." Izzy answered. Skully was shocked and confused. "A wolf? How did that happened?" he asked. The two kids shrugged. "We don't know. We found him in the kitchen, and he was a wolf. He attacked us and we locked him in one of the closets we have. Though I hate to leave him there." Izzy explained.

The three then heard noise from outside. Jake is probably trying to get out of the closet again. They were almost afraid that he might break down the door. If he had super speed and super jumping skills, then he was bound to have super strength as well. Izzy had treated her and Cubby's injuries from Jake's attack eariler. The crew realized that it was past their bedtime, so they tried to sleep, ignoring Jake's attempt to escape the closet.

The next day, Izzy and Cubby woke up tiredly. They were still shaken by seeing their leader as a wolf, and they were still wondering what kind of wolf he was, and how did he become one. Izzy decided that she was gonna free Jake from the closet, thinking that he was back to normal. Cubby went on to make breakfast with some help from Skully.

"Skully. Do you really think Jake is going through some sort of phase? 'Cause I don't think it involves turning into a wolf." Cubby asked. Skully shrugged. "I dunno. I'm starting to not think that's the reason anymore. So what's on the menu for today."

"It's a cheese omelette, with a side of bacon... I didn't want Jake to get angry if we didn't have meat today..."

Just as Cubby said that, they heard a shrill scream. It was Izzy. Cubby immediately ran out of the kitchen, but not before telling Skully to watch the food. The little pirate boy ran to where the screaming came from, and saw Izzy standing in front of the closet door. Before he could ask what's wrong, he found out by just looking at the door. It was knocked off its hinges and on the floor. It was broken in some places. This could only mean two things.

One: Jake definitely had super strength. And Two: He had escaped from the closet!

"Izzy... where's Jake?" Cubby asked timidly. Izzy shrugged. "I... I don't know... but I do know is that Jake is gonna be really mad when he sees us."

"You're right!"

The two younger pirates jumped at the sound of that angry voice. Both gulping, they turned to see Jake standing behind them. He was a boy again, but he sure looked enraged, and to an even bigger shock, he was holding a knife from the kitchen. "What's the big idea?! Locking me in the closet in the middle of the freaking night. What the heck is your problem?!" he snarled.

Izzy and Cubby were backed into the closet as Jake held up the kitchen knife. "We're sorry, Jake." Izzy whimpered. "But you were going crazy... and we didn't want you to hurt us." She tried to hide the fact that Jake was a wolf last night, fearing that he would be even more mad. "You were a wolf last night!" Cubby blurted out. Izzy gasped and covered his mouth, but Jake had heard what he said.

"What. Did. You. Just. Call. Me?!" Jake growled, stepping even closer to his frightened friends. Izzy jumped in to try and save them from getting killed. "He didn't mean it. Honest, he didn't-" But Jake had grabbed Izzy by her hair, and held the knife up against her throat. "Give me one darn good reason why I shouldn't slit your throat." Jake hissed, putting pressure on the knife. Izzy squeaked, and tried to think of a reason not to die. "Well... uh... because... oh..."

"I'm waiting..."

"Because we're your friends!"

Jake stood there for a moment before removing the knife, and letting go of Izzy's hair. "Fair enough." Was all he said before leaving the closet. Izzy and Cubby both sighed in relief, until Jake turned and said: "There better be bacon for breakfast... or else..."

It was a good thing that they did have bacon, or else Jake would have probably eaten them. At breakfast, Jake, once again, ate the bacon, and not the omelette. When he finished, he said something that the others didn't expect him to say in his condition. "Hey, guys. Listen... I'm really sorry I flipped out last night. I think I was just stressed. Izzy, I'm sorry for breaking your music box, and Cubby, I'm sorry for ripping your drawings.

Izzy and Cubby exchanged looks. They weren't sure if they should forgive him. Then again, he was out of control last night, so they knew that he couldn't help it. "It's okay, Jake. We knew you couldn't help it." Izzy assured him with a warm smile. Jake grinned. As they day went on, Jake had seemed a lot more nicer than before. From time to time, they expected him to yell at them, but he didn't. It wasn't until later that night when Jake's "animalistic" side started to show.

The crew was sitting in the sand outside of Pirate Island, looking at the stars. It sure was a beautiful night, so they decided to point out constellations.

"Hey! That one looks like a coconut." Cubby pointed out.

"That one looks like a mermaid." Izzy also pointed out.

"And that one looks like a... wolf..." Jake also had pointed out. The others were confused. A wolf? They looked at Jake for an explanation, but he was paying attention to something else in the sky... the moon. "There's a full moon out tonight." He whispered. "And the time has come..."

The others were about to ask 'What time?' when Jake stood up, and growled. Izzy, Cubby, and Skully watched in horror as Jake started to look different. His hair got longer, his ears got pointier, his eyes became a yellowish color, and his teeth became sharper.

"Wow... Jake is definitely not goin' through a phase." Skully said after a minute of silence. Jake had turned into a wolf again. Izzy and Cubby had expect Jake to try and kill them like the night before, but instead he grinning at them, panting as if he was a dog. Cubby stepped a little closer to pat Jake on the head, which Jake admired. "You're a lot nicer then you were last night." Cubby chuckled as Jake licked him happily.

Izzy couldn't help but also grin. Jake may look scary as a wolf, but he sure was gentle. "I think the reason he's not attacking us is because he still knows who we are." She told Cubby. "He still knows we're his friends."

"But didn't he know who we were last night?"

"I guess not."

The little pirate crew watched as Jake played around them. He was also a very fun loving wolf, just like the fun loving boy he always is... or was. But they all wonderered two thing.

What was it gonna be like having a wolf for a pirate leader and friend? And what kind of wolf was Jake?

Jake: And there you have it! I hope you enjoyed it! You better have! And you better review, or else I will hunt you down and kill you.

Me (Who somehow survived the fall from the cliff): YOU!

Jake: Nellie! It's nice that you are still alive. (Under his breath): Darn it...

Me: First you lock me inside a closet during a chapter of 'The Wrath's Revenge', and now you throw me off a cliff. What in the world is wrong with you-

(Jake growls at me)

Me: Okay! Okay! I know your still under the influnence of the werewolf. Anyways, to you guys, it looks like Jake has turned into a wolf, but we all know what kind. Homecoming game is tonight at school, and I'm so excited for it. So that why I decided to post this chapter today. And by the way, Izzy, Cubby, and Skully all don't know what kind of wolf Jake is, but they will find out soon. So, I guess I'll see you later, and don't forget to-

Jake: Review, or I will kill you.

Me:... review, please. Thank you.
