Mythology: Night's Bane
Chapter 2: Chaos in the Night
-787-
Her mind moved so fast she could barely keep up with herself, if her claws had shown and she didn't know…What else could have been shown? Was she starting to grow fur in the middle of the crowd? Did they notice? She didn't feel any fur piercing her skin, or noticed people staring…. but that still doesn't mean that no one saw…..maybe it would be safe just to leave the party now
She jumped up with a stiffened gasp, the doorknob started to turn…..
Oh no….
Who was it? Was it someone that saw her transforming? Could it be that someone finally found out about her being…..being the creature she really was?
In the split few seconds that the pale white door creaked open, Luna's whole effort to not be discovered flashed before her, her father's Tired and tried effort to protect what was most valuable to him. Now Luna may very well ruin all that her father has done to try and protect her.
Luna would never be able to deal with the consequences of her secret being revealed…..
If that were to happen….Who knows what would become of her? It was easily her worst nightmare…
-787- (Many years prior, Luna's strained flashback)
"Luna! Luna gets back here this instant!" Her father called out to the young 11 year old Luna who giggled as she darted down the stairs of her house, aiming to go to Garden in the back yard
The massive villa sat atop a hill of great size. Its Pearly white walls that surrounded a large perimeter seemed to cast a holy light onto the grass that surrounded it. The villa inside was, if it was possible, even more of a beauty, the blend of adobe, bricks, modern style, sharp edges and floral accents would put most architects into a fit wondering how such structural integrity and Art could be blended so effortlessly. Mister Tierra would know, he was one of the best. The three thousand square meter villa was one of the most spectacular privately owned homes in Japan, No doubt. Only the houses of the great Japanese royals had a greater appeal and even then, where they any good structurally?
A man stepped past the hallways edge, looking around for the young girl that passed through the same hallway not even a few seconds prior
The Middle aged was tall at about 178 cm, and was very muscular, his eyes shown much intellect and wisdom far beyond his years. The man sighed, his hands on his hips at the top of the stairs, watching as his child bound outside with energy that he could never keep up with. She passed through the massive glass sliding door that gave a breath taking view into a garden that was stunning, the one that he had designed to give him that wonderful feeling of nostalgia every time he walked through it. He spent years trying to design its layout, Down to each plant's exact orientation, the garden itself was more of a tiny forest, nearly double the Square meters that the house was. Which was already large in itself.
The man stepped down the stairs, Knowing full and well that Luna would be okay, but….that lingering parental paranoia that told almost every sane parent on the planet that no matter what their child could be in danger from anything, anywhere, anytime. This terrible anxious thought was on overdrive in his mind, constantly repeating, never ceasing. He stepped out into the garden through the massive glass door that he had to order especially for this house, He chuckled at all the hardship it gave him because of it unusual dimensions.
His eyes leveled with the garden as he stepped out onto the porch, the porch was made of the finest wood in japan and gave a captivating scent every time the family stepped outside. The porch sat a good 10 meters above the ground of the garden, As Mister Tierra always like to look out above his little private forest, The Japanese maple trees extended high in the sky, he took notice of them as she scanned his eyes across the top of the private forest. Looking for his daughter
"Luna! Be careful please! Do not leave the compound!" he shouted, hoping that she heard him
Out of Brush he heard her reply with exasperation
"Okay….Yes sir!"
He ran a hand through his aging black and grey hair, he came to realize that he was stifling his precious daughter by not letting her explore….but even still he would not let her leave the compound. His Private forest was Large enough for her to explore, what with the plethora of trees, a waterfall and flowers with such sweet aroma it put perfume to shame. In Spain he would always go into the Forest and enjoy the scenery and look at the beauty that was all around him, when night would descend upon the landscape he would then gaze up to the wonderful night sky. Here he could relive that same feeling but in his own back yard, a childhood of memories….just a few steps away.
He Sighed and straightened his Button up shirt, it was chafing his neck. He sat down in a chair, and listened out intently for any sign of distress from the "princess" of the Tierra Family
He chuckled at that thought; it made tears well up in his eyes to think of her.
Yes….his little princess
-787-
Luna snickered with childish innocence from behind the brush of a tree; her father was never going to find her here!
She pulled back the leaves of a bush and glared out of the small opening she created, looking for her father's exact location
She spotted his blue shirt which clashed with the white granite and marble sides of the house, he was sitting down on the patio, and it looked like he was looking for her too, but just wasn't so worried like he normally was.
The Young girl withdrew from her spot in the brush; if he wasn't going to follow her then she was going to make the most of it. She ran to the waterfall in the center of the garden, her small shoes making a rhythmic noise upon the cobblestone walkway, she ran around the second corner and slowed down and smiled. The peak of the waterfall was just ahead of her, a grassy plain surrounded the river that flowed through the private forest, the large pool of water below it cast a beautiful gleam of light from the full moon. Luna stepped forward at a relaxed pace, she clambered up on a large stone that sat just a few feet from the drop of the waterfall. She leaned back placing her dainty hands behind her head; gaze up at the lunar jewel of the night sky. Her father would always bring her here. It was one of her fondest memories.
Her eyebrows fluttered, her mind adrift in ocean of thoughts, she nearly fell right asleep then and there….
If it were not for a sudden sensation that is…..
Her pupils narrowed, her sight suddenly became extremely reactive, She didn't notice it at first, her eyes still trained on the moon, But the more she stared the more her pupils changed, The heavenly glow of the moon became more and more unbearable, She winced and looked away, starting to become confused
She found that her nose had become startlingly perceptive; she got a sudden blow to her senses that made her recoil and nearly fall off the rock that she sat upon.
A familiar scent hit her nose, her father's cologne, the smell of the water by the creek, the sweet smell of the cherry blossoms, the unpleasant odor of the fallen leaves decaying. All of this affronted her senses at one time, it was simply too much for her to process, she cupped her hands tightly around her nose, attempting to prevent anything more from causing her dismay.
She jumped yet again from a painful shock to her eardrums, the calm sounds of the creek exploded into thunder that clashed up against her very skull. The wind became akin to the sound of a typhoon. She curled up into a ball near the rock that she used to sit on. The Noises….the scents….the movement it all banged up against her mind like a curse.
Then just when she believed it couldn't get any worse, a pain pricked up all over her body, almost like little needles jabbing into her with the force of bullets, her gums stretched as larger teeth took shape, it felt like her gums were about to rip wide open.
She shuddered and shook as she became very cold, the pain nearly knocking her out. She looked down at her hands, she shrieked in horror, her five human fingers did not appear to her, instead a clawed paw came into her vision.
Her ear drums neared bursting point when her father called out for her, It seemed like her was shouting into a megaphone right next to her bare inner ear.
She writhed in pain and attempted to get to her feet, she didn't know what would become of her, but she would not let her father see her like this. She attempted to stand up on two legs but her knees cracked and broke under the strain, she paled, her mind not yet caught up with the concept as her Knees reversed in direction and her ankles shifted to a 60 degree position, a dogs hind legs came to mind. Her skin felt like it was covered in molten lava now as Fur began to sprout from her colored skin.
She heard her father's footsteps nearing, the sounds like drums being slammed.
She tried once more to get to her feet, this time she did but she immediately fell back down on her stomach
She whimpered and tried to crawl away. She was scared, scared that her father would see her like this…..whatever she was. Even if she did bring herself to see him, there would be no way she could talk to him….she just needed to find a nice place to lie down.
The pain now slowly began to subside, she opened her eyes, a large dark red blotch clouded the lower part of her vision, she tried to push it away, but found two things when she attempted to do so.
One that dark red thing….was connected to her…..and two her hands were now paws
She yipped in surprise and found that the red thing was her elongated nose.
She could barely even speak…her mind unable to process what was going on…she felt like screaming, calling out to the heavens in agony…like running back to mom and crying her eyes out in confusion, But she couldn't….
She stood up on wobbly paws; her heart beat against her chest giving her an uncomfortable stuffy feeling in her lungs. Her mind put two and two together,
First. She was a lot smaller now…and two she had Fur, claws, and a large elongated nose. The first thing that hit her mind was that she was a monster but she refused to believe that, there was no way, she was a little girl! She was a child not some freak! But….but what was she? The poor tortures girl got to her four new paws and clumsily made her way to the stream, she couldn't get up on two feet.
She peered into the clear water; part of her not wanting to see what would stare back.
Her shoulders shook, and her eyes watered.
Her face did not look back at her
But the face of a wolf's
-787-
She flashed back, the door swung open and she cringed, excepting prying eyes and words of anger and hate.
Instead a concerned and confused voice came to her ears
"Oi, Luna what are you doing?" The familiar voice of Takashi rang in her ears
Words could not ultimately describe the feeling of both relief and annoyance she felt at the same moment
She sighed and slowly turned her head to Takashi with a slightly annoyed look
He stepped back with a scoff "What my bad, I saw ya run in here and wanted to make sure you were okay…" he said trailing off
Luna rolled her eyes and sat up from the bed "Thanks Takashi, but I'm fine" she said with a bit of disdain
He grimaced "Sorry. Didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable" he said with an unsure expression as he started walking away rubbing the back of his neck, grumbling on about "I'll never understand girls…"
Once he reached the end of the hallway and turned away out of her sight she fell back against the wall. Worry flooded out of her body, what a scare…
She was kind of aggravated that Takashi was following her, but then again if it was anyone else, or that if they had seen her change…well she was already sure of what would happen.
She sat up from her position against the wall and left cautiously out of the small bedroom, She started to walk to where she last saw Aiyano, now that she was fully aware that it was full moon, she could control the transformations better, but she had to leave the party and as soon as possible.
She reached the end of the hallway and noticed a distinctive lack of a large group of teens
She shrugged in her mind, most likely the younger kids that had an early curfew, after all most of the kids in the high school were of 9th and 10th grade
She walked along the edges of the dance floor and eventually reached the sliding glass doors, Aiyano was still outside, talking to another girl that was dressed in a deep blue full body dress, Gold stitching and silver lace was the first things she noted about it.
Very classy for someone of her age
Aiyano noticed Luna over the shoulder of the newer girl
"Oh hey Luna you're back!" she said in exclamation, the other girl turned around to see her
"Yea just got my phone and uh….well had to take a stop by the restroom, and who are you?" Luna said playing off her situation as nothing
The girl in the blue dress bowed politely "My name is Amaya, nice to meet you, you must be Luna then?"
Luna nodded and bowed courteously back to her, she was the daughter of someone rich that was for sure, best to respect her. "Yes I am, nice to meet you"
Aiyano smiled "Yea she is Ichirou's sister! You've seen her at school right?"
"Oh really? She is? That's pretty cool!" Luna said smiling back to them, now that Aiyano mentioned it she did see her at school once or twice.
"Yes its true, Ichirou and I are siblings, Oh! Speaking of which I needed to find him and let him know it's time for cake! Oh man I forgot! I'll see you guys in a bit!" Amaya had said as she bowed and quickly walked out of the garden to the sliding glass doors
"So what's really up Luna?" Aiyano questioned with a straight face and crossed arms
Luna backed up "what do you mean?"
She frowned and rolled her eyes "You know what I mean, you didn't have to go get your phone, I saw you grab it out of the car when we first got here! What did you really need to go do?" She said stepping closer to her questioned friend
Luna held up her hands in front of herself "nothing of importance I swear!" She lied through her teeth
Aiyano narrowed her dark blue eyes "Really are you sure? Because we are friends and I thought friends shared important things with each other, not keep secrets…" she said slyly heavily implying that Luna was keeping something from her
Which she was
Luna closed her eyes and sighed "Trust me Aiyano it really is nothing important…" she said with sincerity, it was important to Luna herself, but it shouldn't be important to anyone else.
Aiyano withdrew, seeing that her friend was being honest to some degree
She clicked her tongue and shrugged her shoulders "Alright then Luna, I'll leave ya be, but what is it that you needed?"
Luna thought for a moment, had she really forgotten?
She sat still for a moment searching in her mind for what she was going to say "um….oh yea! I'm really sorry but I need to head home" She said with an unsure smile hoping her friend wouldn't be angry
Aiyano sighed "Fine Luna, I'm glad you came though, it was fun while you were here, just be sure to be careful okay? Takashi will give you a ride home I'm sure, go ask him"
Luna nodded and slowly walked away "see you later Aiyano, don't party too hard okay?" Luna said with a snicker
Aiyano rolled her eyes in a lethargic circle "Oh cause' I'm really going to be partying it up like no tomorrow right?" she snipped with crossed arms
Luna laughed and slid the door open, she walked on through. Luna knew Takashi would be by the door hanging with the rest of the shy guys that didn't want to dance and just wanted to hang with their buddies
She passed the dance floor for hopefully the last time tonight, She left the giant living room and entered the foyer through a small hallway, sure enough a bunch of kids were relaxing and loitering around the kitchen, stairs and area around the doorway.
'Why bother coming to a party if all you're going to do is eat the food and waste time?' Luna thought with a sour expression as she passed multiple people with nothing but drinks in their hands and a few Guys shoving each other around like a wrestling match
Luna paid no attention and passed along without so much as a second glance. She needed to find Takashi now, and fast before her transformation would forcefully make its way to the surface again
She cringed visibly at that last thought, But then again if Takashi didn't take her home she could just walk home if worse came to worse.
She snorted 'Like I would walk that far in heels!' she thought with much amusement
-787-
"Enough man!" Takashi yelled at his friend, who for the 3rd time had spiked his drink with shots of vodka, the kitchen had been barren of any party goes other than a few people here and there to get a drink.
His friend looked at him with watered eyes "What's zit to ya man? I'm totally fine…" he said, barely managing to get it passed his lips
Takashi pinched the bridge of his nose "Oh man, you're are for once like the only guy here drinking alcohol, no one wants to be on bad terms with Ichirou's family! If you screw up this party you will be shunned in school for years!" He said with a hint of disgust
His friend snorted, actually breaking out of his semi drunk state
"Listen man, I have a right to drink alcohol." He said poking Takashi in his chest with his finger
Takashi rolled his eyes "Sure you do, and sense when has it been allowed for minors to drink?"
His buddy actually took a moment to think, Causing Takashi to chuckle in disbelief at the idiocy of his friends actions
"Um….sense….ah fine man ill stops…." He grumbled, he walked over to the sink and Dumps the vile liquid down the drain, he looks over to Takashi and gives a mock smile
"See ma, I'm not drinking anymore..." he joked
Takashi rubbed his forehead with a sigh "You are such an embarrassment man…"
His friend swung his hand, passing his words off as if they were dust in the air; he turned around and started pouring himself a soda, not spiked this time.
Takashi sat down on a barstool that was right next to the kitchens bar which wrapped around the actually kitchen island and Appliances, and was just about to ask for his friend to get him a drink when he noticed someone walk in the doorway
"Oh Takashi there you are!" Luna had said with the sound of relief as she walked in the room and sat down next to him
Takashi smiled at her "Yea I've been here the whole time, so what do you need?" he asked with a raised eyebrow
She sighed "man this party just isn't for me, can you drive me home?"
Takashi looked amused "What? You're like the only person ill know that will go to 3 parties a week and still have enough energy for school, why would you want to leave a party?" he said turning the barstool in her direction
She rubbed her arm with a sheepish grin "well I'm just not liking it so far…." She said looking away
Takashi didn't buy it "Luna. This is like one of the best parties I've ever been to, and I haven't even left the Kitchen for most of the time!" He leaned in close making sure his friend or the other people that had wandered in the room couldn't hear him, he placed one hand blocking the side of his mouth from the other people
"This isn't about earlier is it?" he said with narrowed eyes
"Yes! Oh well no….k-kinda…" She said without thinking it through, a sheepish and embarrised grin on her face
He gave questioning gaze, Luna really didn't like this
'I wish he would just stop prodding and just take me home already!' She screamed in her head
He lightened his expression and shrugged "Eh fine, just let me have on more drink and we can head out"
Luna smiled and gave his him a hug as he got up, catching him off guard
"Oh thanks so much Takashi! I really appreciate it"
He chuckled as he headed over to the soda and poured himself a glass "No problem, not like I'm partying hard or anything…"
His friend beside his laughed loudly, so loud that Takashi punched him in the shoulder in annoyance
"Shut up man! It's not like you have been livin' it up either!" Takashi accused with his finger pointed at him
His buddy's smile vanished after that comment; He rubbed his shoulder where Takashi hit him grumbling.
Luna giggled finding Takashi's reaction funny
"You want a glass?" Takashi asked over his shoulder
Luna nodded "yea sure"
Takashi grabbed another cup and poured it for her, he grabbed both his and Luna's and walked over to her
"Here ya go" he said placing it down in front of her gently
Luna bowed "Thank you"
Takashi set his down after taking a sip "Hang on I'm going to head to the restroom, I'll be back" He said turning to the doorway
Luna acknowledged him "Okay, I'll wait here"
Luna took a few sips of her drink and got bored really quickly, she sighed and set her drink down next to Takashi's and turned away to speak with the girls behind her, maybe striking up a conversation would cure her boredom
Takashi's 'friend' was still bitter from the crap Takashi gave him, he looked around to make sure no one was watching as he walked away from the sodas and Moved over to Takashi's drink cup, he took one last glance behind him and when the girl that was with Takashi finally started talking with the other Girls in the room he pulled out a silver flask, he unscrewed the top and thinking he was pouring it in Takashi's Cup, dumped all the vodka that was left in it, he quickly screwed the top back on a shoved the vile thing back in his pocket
"That'll teach Takashi to mess with me…freaking kill joy…" he grumbled as he left the room aiming to leave the party
-787-
Takashi turned the corner and entered the kitchen; he first noticed that Luna was in fact not where she said she would be
"Aw Luna…." He said with a groan
"I'm right here Dude!" he heard Luna's voice from behind him
He whipped around to see her leaning up against the doorway to the kitchen
"Oh come on, where were you?"
Luna rolled her eyes and entered the room and leaned up against the bar
"Dude chill I left the room for like 2 seconds I was just seeing off the girls I was talking too off, they had to leave" She said as she grabbed her drink
Takashi sighed "Oh well that's nice" he said obviously disinterested
He cracked his neck "okay you ready to go?" He asked her as he too grabbed his cup and downed the whole soda in about 3 seconds
"Ahh…that's good" he said with a smirk
Luna rolled her eyes "yea funny…" she said with annoyance, she tilted her head back and downed her whole drink too, but she stopped half way as her eyes widened and she spat the drink out, the drink burning her throat
"Ackkkk! What the heck!" She spat as she clutched her neck
Takashi gasped "Oh crap Luna, what's wrong!?" he asked as he bent down to her level with concern
She took a deep breath "Aw man my throat feels like its on fire!"
Takashi looked over to the fallen cup on the counter and grimaces, he swings around the counter and grabbed a few paper towels and quickly soaked up the spilt drink
He got a sinking feeling in his stomach when he noticed that the liquid had a strange color to it, he lifted the drenched towel to his nose and quickly took a whiff
"Augg…that is nasty! Its smells just like…" He caught himself from saying the last word. The Smell reminded him of his buddy, him and his drink of vodka.
Luna groaned and stood up she gazed over to Takashi with lazy eyes
Then that same felling came back to her, that tense prickly feeling she got when she was changing
She panicked; she must have ran out of time! Oh man and with Takashi here she was in a pickle for sure!
She sat up and took a deep breath trying to slow down the change
"Um Takashi, can we go home now?" She asked with pleading eyes
Takashi sighed "yes we can, sorry about that, my buddy must have spiked your drink…..aw man I'm so sorry Luna, he is such a jerk sometimes…" he said with a very sincere and sad look
Luna gasped "he SPIKED my drink! I drank like half the cup man!" She said as she put her hands over her stomach with a worried expression
He Sighed through grit teeth "um…you will be fine, just sleep it off! Let's get in the car and get you home" he said as he placed his hand behind her back and began walking her to the door in a hurried fashion
"Hey, hey, HEY watch the hand!" Luna said as she attempted to walk up to pace with Takashi
He slowed down "Oh sorry, just let's get you home before your body starts to digest that alcohol….just try not to do anything crazy if you start to feel a bit…woozy…okay?"
She nodded slowly with an unsure grin "O….kay?"
They just leave the kitchen when Luna is hit with a wave of pain, the transformation starting to take place.
She doubles over, the prickling feeling starting to get to her first
"Luna are you okay?!" Takashi asked with concern, he knelt down and began to pull her up
She swatted his hand away "NO! I'm fine, just get me outside…." She yelled, making Takashi feel a bit shunned
He was unsure of what to do, his hands held up in the air in front of him shaking
He looked down to Luna and he felt a lump in his throat
Something brown and spiky was sprouting from the exposed skin on her back and her arms
He gasped 'What the heck is going on?' he thought with confusion
"Oh my gosh what is happening to her?!" Takashi looked up to the source of the voice
He spotted a group of girls, one of them were squealing and pointing at Luna on the ground, she caught the attention of not only the girl's friends but a crowd began to watch and yell to each other
Takashi looked down once again to Luna, fearful of what he would find
He recoiled in shock and covered his eyes; she….she wasn't there anymore
A red furred creature was in the place of her, partially covered by her clothes, patches of exposed skin were left, but it had paws and fur and was slowly shrinking and taking the form of something
He peeked through parted eyes and found himself curious, but other people were not as kind
They began throwing things at Luna or the animal….or whatever!
A sizeable crowd had now formed and Takashi feared for her, whatever was happening he couldn't leave her hear alone!
He sprang into action and quickly scooped her up, swiftly dodging the Cans, cups and silverware thrown at him, he had to pass through the living room, the mob of kids were blocking the only way out from the kitchen to the door, he would have to go through the living room and to the front door
A lot of people were yelling at him as he passed by them at running speed, he even knocked a few people over
"Hey! What the heck?!"
"What is that?!"
"Stop right there bro!"
Were just a few of the calls after him as he ran past them, he reached the door and opened it, a few people from the mod that had seen Luna….um….change were running after him, but Takashi didn't care, he ran as fast as he could, digging in his pocket awkwardly for his keys to his car, he quickly unlocked it with the remote control and open the driver door, he let Luna…or the animal down in his lap and quickly turned the key and Fired up the engine, people we just about to open his doors when he backed up and drove away from the curb, squealing his tires as he left, the people behind him coughing on exhaust fumes and dust
He sighed and his shoulders sunk
"Oh man….what have I gotten myself into…" he looked down to his lap with a raised eyebrow
"And what the heck have you gotten yourself into Luna?" Now that he could get a good look, she looked a lot like the red wolves from Europe that he studied in biology, but why would she change into one? What the heck is up with that? Last he check people didn't exactly just up and change into a pack based, meat eating, and clawed eviscerating canine.
He was stopped by a red light and he ran a hand through his hair, as he waited for the light to change color, he picked up the wolf, who was quite light he might add, and set her in the back seat. She let out a pained whimper and her ears twitched from the movement of her position.
He let out another exhausted sigh and laid back in his seat as the light changed color yet again, he pressed the gas pedal, as he checked the side streets and turns he could make, he thought of where exactly he should be going
'I mean, I can't go back to my house, if Aiyano got whiff of this at the party she would hunt me down like a helpless doe' he sighed, his hopes draining ever so slowly with each passing minute
He sat back, almost not even paying attention to the road
'Man, I guess I could just take Luna to her house… but how will I get her past anyone that stops me, "oh yea I'm just carry a dangerous European wolf that has be extinct for decades in japan just the for the heck of it"' He pounded his fist against the Steering wheel, what did he get himself into?
His ears picked up a slight noise from the back seat, Could Luna be awake?
He pursed his lips, not wanting to take his eyes off the road, maybe he could stop somewhere?
Yea the park is nearby; no one is there at night because it's closed. He could just park in one of the parking spaces and sort this issue out…..eh that is if Luna wakes up.
He turned to the right as soon as he needed and drove up one of the many side streets that encompassed Tokyo. The park was only a few minutes away now
Luna, Aiyano and Himself would always go there; he knew the roads there like the back of his hand by now.
Once he reached the last Stoplight to the park he looked to the back seat, maybe Luna was awake and just had been quiet?
He shifted his position and draped his arm over the head rest trying to get a good look without hurting his neck
Luna….well… the wolf Luna. Was Sleeping very restlessly, it seem like she couldn't find a comfortable spot to lie on. He felt a pang of sympathy; she must be really upset by now, her dreams cursing her.
He turned back around just as the light turned green. A few thoughts began to brew in his head…
'I wonder…..was Luna always this….this wolf? I mean this is crazy just thinking about it….t-that a human is a wolf but….I mean it does kinda make sense she was different…but I wonder how she got this way. Was she born with it? Or did something happen at the party?' He scoffed as his last thought
'Yea Takashi some guy cast a freakin' spell on her and she changed into wolf' He thought with a smug look
But as he thought more about it, she did only change when she drank that crap that my buddy gave her….was that what caused it? I mean it was only vodka….so something must have triggered it….'
He threw his head back against the head rest with a long winded exhale
"Aw man this is so confusing!" he shouted with seething anger
Maybe it would have been better if he just left her to the Teens to do whatever they wanted with her…that way he could be free of this burden, how was he to explain this to his friends? And if this got out into the news oh good lord… that would be terrible, he couldn't show his face ever again! All just for helping a wolf! Er….Wolf girl!
His mind made a sudden realization…what would become of Luna?
I mean she wasn't a girl that was helping out a wolf like he was….
She was the wolf
A lot of kids seen her change…some he had seen her hang out with at school
'Aw man….Luna….' he thought with a great pain of despair and sympathy
Takashi felt like such a jerk thinking of himself before the girl whose life could be ruined right about now….
He turning into the park, almost missing the turn because of his great amount of thinking, he slowly cruised up to the parking lot. He parked in a spot furthest away from the road, it was shrouded by draping trees and shadows cast by larger flora, He was sure that none would be able to see him unless they were trying to look for him
He leaned back in his chair with an exhale and just let his arms go limp, he was about to adjust his seat backwards…
But a growl….. came resonating from behind.
