Head In The Clouds
[06]
Nina and I sat in chairs around the girl. Jacob was sitting or more like slouching by the kitchen door. It was just passing noon and the girl hasn't woken up yet. The girl might not wake up until nightfall where the odds were in the newborn's favor.
You need to stop thinking on this Alan. You're giving me a headache. Emily joked. Emily and I were a special breed of werewolves. We could hear each other's thoughts when one of us was human and the other was in werewolf form. It was sort of a tag team sort of a way to communicate with the pack.
I got up from my chair and looked around in the fridge. I grabbed an apple and finished it in 1 minute. It wasn't enough to satisfy me, but it was going to have to be enough for now.
I heard someone's fingers twitch and Nina shoot up. "She's awakening." Nina said. Instantly all 3 of us were surrounding the girl. Keep your eyes open, the girl is waking up. I told Emily, who told the rest of the pack when she got my thought.
The girl's hand turned into a fist, but then relaxed. Then her eyes opened up slowly and she took in a deep breath. "Where…Where am I?" The girl's voice sounded like honey-sweet lilac. "You're in a safe place. Try not to move or your injuries might get worse." Nina answered in a kind, soft voice. The girl nodded.
"Do you have a name?" Nina asked. "Maggie…Maggie Conners" The girl answered. "Ok then, Maggie, stay still and in about a day you should be up and walking." Nina said. Maggie nodded.
He's here! Seth shouted. Get into position! Sam ordered. Wait until he's right in place! Leah demanded. The newborn must have been spotted by now and everyone was getting ready for it.
"He's here" I whispered to everyone. Nina and Jacob both shivered. Get him! Sam ordered. Then came a bunch of howls, growls, barks, kisses, moans, groans, and then it went silent.
"What in the world was that?" Maggie whispered. Then I sensed him. He was here in the house. "Nina, Jacob, cover her, it's here in the house." I whispered.
Just as Jacob and Nina acted the newborn came out of nowhere and tried to get at Maggie. Then came a loud snap.
I jumped in front of the newborn's way when Jacob jumped in front of me. The newborn came at Jacob and hit Jacob's rib cage. Then came a loud snap.
Snap after snap went Jacob's ribs. Breaking from the hit the newborn landed on him. Jacob fell and the newborn came after me then. I acted quickly and pounced onto the newborn before he could finish me and go after Nina.
I grabbed its head and, with as much strength I had, I twisted and ripped off the newborns head. I did the same to the newborn's arms, legs, and torso. I took the pieces outside and covered them in gasoline.
I grabbed the lighter that I had in my pocket and lit the pieces on fire. I starred into the flames as this darkness inside me ate away at me even more. A deep growl ripped through my chest and I got even angrier than before.
I felt a soft hand tough my shoulder, but I shook it off. I was too angry to listen to anyone. I needed to get away from here. "Alan, please calm down. I need your help to fix up Jacob." Nina said.
I didn't answer her, I couldn't answer her. I couldn't risk the chance of ending up yelling at Nina. I couldn't calm down either and I ended up getting even angrier.
The flames turned black and then disappeared. There were no traces left of the newborn's body. By then everything inside me was completely filled with anger and darkness. I couldn't control myself anymore and phased.
Without saying anything to Nina or anyone else I sprinted off in the direction of Canada. "ALAN!" I heard Nina scream, but I only heard it for a split second before I increased my speed incredibly.
I was the fastest of the pack so I had no worries of someone coming after me. I would stay in Canada, away from vampires. I would stay there and never come back. This is the end of my story. Alan, 17 years old, and a werewolf…yup, that's everything.
I could never return to the way things were in LaPush, never. Darkness completely consumed me and I let my anger take over me. I would be saying goodbye to every memory I had in LaPush. I would be saying goodbye to my family, the pack, and Nina. This is how my story ended.
