Hey, I don't own Shadow Falls. Wish that I did, but I don't.
The next week at Shadow Falls went by normally. Even the night guarding was getting normal. But it was also getting equally as annoying. Sam felt like she couldn't do anything. She knew that every single one of them had supernatural hearing so she was afraid to even use the restroom. Sam had had enough.
"Can't we just call it off?" she asked Kylie one afternoon. "No one has entered camp in over a week and nothing even remotely weird has happened!" Sam was even considering begging.
"I'll talk to Burnett about it but he has the final say. Trust me, I know exactly how you feel. I had it even worse when I went here thanks to that stubborn vamp. He had people following me around 24/7. I couldn't even pee without having Della or Miranda standing outside."
"Isn't Miranda a teacher here?"
"Yeah she is. She'll be back here in the fall. She teaches English, ironically, since she's dyslectic." They both laughed. "But I will try my hardest to get ole' grumpy pants to lighten the torture on you. But I have to go call a parent. I'll see you later." She walked off, phone in hand.
Later that evening, Kylie called Sam to tell her Burnett agreed to call off the night guards. Sam was with Jason when she heard the exciting news. A few days ago, she thought it would be a good idea to tell him what had really happened. He was a little mad but he understood why she didn't tell him.
"So they finally called in the watch dogs, huh? Today is a good day for you! You can smell to full power now and you can sleep without mommy and daddy watching for monsters."
"Yeah I know right! But I have to go call my mom. I'll talk to you later." They quickly kissed and Sam left.
After Sam called her mom and told her of her progress, she sat in bed and stared at the ceiling. It was eight-thirty; too early to go to bed but too late to go hang out with anyone. Clara and Isabel were both out talking to Holiday about their boy problems so she was alone. Paranoia nipped at the rational part of her brain and she started to worry. What if they come back? No one would know what happened. No one could help me. I can't take on three grown supernatural men by myself! Sam started pacing the wooden floor. Thoughts filled her head to the brim with every scary movie and story she's seen or read. Murderers could be hidden in the closet. Kidnappers could come from vents. The devil could suddenly appear and take her soul!
Sam's phone loudly chimed with an incoming text. She looked and it was Jason. He asked her if she wanted to meet him for a walk. But she'd have to smell him out to find him. She saw this as a challenge for her new powers. She grabbed a light jacket and headed out the door, leaving a note for her roommates.
Sam stepped outside and paused. She closed her eyes and took in a deep breath through her nose. A werewolf was by the office, Clara was on her way back but was still a while away, and Holiday was in her cabin. She took in one more sniff when the wind blew her way. She smelled his familiar sent; like men's soap and Old Spice deodorant. She ran towards him. After a moment she stopped again to catch his smell. She ran again, continuing this routine for five minutes. Sam finally found her boyfriend sitting on a rock by the east side of camp. He looked different.
"I found you!" Sam said in excitement.
"Yeah you did. Lucky you."
"What do you mean?" A crow sounded close by. Something wasn't right. "What's going on?" A smell suddenly hit Sam's sinuses like a brick wall. It smelled like⦠dog. It was a werewolf. The crow circled the two from above the trees. She watched as electric sparkles filled the air and a large man stood in front of her. He was the shape shifter from a week ago. Sam started to back up but ran into what felt like a tree. The turned quickly and saw the were. He grabbed both of her arms tightly and held them into place. She tried to break free but he was much stronger than she was. "Jason help me! Go get help!" she screamed. The boy didn't budge. He stood there with a sick smile on his face. Sam could only do one thing, scream. The warlock appeared out of thin air.
"Shut her up!" he commanded.
The shape shifter started walking towards her as he picked up a large branch. Sam knew exactly what it was for and she screamed louder, hoping Burnett or someone could hear her. The large man with the weapon held it like a baseball bat and swung it at her head. The bat made perfect contact with the ball. Everything went black.
I. Finally. Finished. Chapter. Nine. And I'm telling you now, you're probably not going to be very impressed. It's not anything special. But it's a big accomplishment for me! But I will continue to work on chapter ten now and hopefully it'll be easy to write. Oh, and I just started watching Attack on Titan and it's sooooo good! My boyfriend recommended it to me and now I'm doing the same to you. Ps. it is very sad and does have blood and whatnot. Be warned! But I hope you guys have a wonderful weekend and don't forget to follow, favorite, and review. Especially review. They make me happy. Bye!
