Chapter 3: Chapter 3
Well I can honestly say that I am absolutely surprised at how much people are liking my story because I practically started winging it after the first chapter .I know my chapters are short ,but that is because I have a deficiency that mixes up words and it makes me see words that aren't there , so therefore I apologize for that and I will try to make my chapters longer even though it'll take some time. Thank you for all of your support.

I ran through the forest as fast as my legs would carry me ,hair blowing behind me as I picked up speed. There was no end to the forest or the pitch black night.
Where am I?
What is this?
Who am I searching for?
Why was I searching?
All of these questions bounced around me, but no reply was given to the simple questions. I finally got to a clearing where a figure lay on the forest floor. My curiosity got the better of me, and I immediately stretched out my hand towards them. Their hands shot out, grabbing my shoulders roughly holding me in place. They were hot and searing as though the person had their hands in a fire instead of over it. They looked up. I was shocked to see the familiar shade of deep brown looking back at me.
"Claudia what are you doing here? "I asked her shocked.
Her eyes broke away from mine and darted around the forest as though something was there with us. Her body began to tremble uncontrollably.
"Claudia lets go and get some help." I tried to get up, but she held my arms so tight until it hurt .
She looked me in the eyes and numerous of emotions flashed through all at the same time .Fear ,pain, and desperation .The last one stuck out the most. She was silently pleading, and I couldn't understand why .I was just as frightened as she was if not more.
"You have to get out of here now before it happens." Her voice came out in short gasp of breath and she was still trembling.
"I know so come on and stop being so damn stubborn." I tugged on her, but she didn't budge.
"Please I'm begging you go NOW BEFORE I-"Her voice cut off and she dropped to the ground, convulsing right in front of my eyes.
When I tried to reach out to help her she burst out of her skin, the once human girl was an oversized wolf with golden eyes and snow white fur. It let out a primal snarl and lunged for me.
I jolted out of bed dripping cold sweat, and trying to catch my breath.
That stupid dream again.
Why?
I've been suddenly having this dream since I moved here a few days ago and the wolf in my dream haunted my subconscious to no end .There had to be a reason for the dreams sudden appearance.
What does it mean?
She died almost two years ago ,so why ?The guilt began to way me down ,closing over my heart like a vice grip.
If only-I shook my head quickly .I shouldn't be thinking about this .There was nothing I could've done to save her an nothing I could do to bring her. I've been told to repeat this mantra over and over again in counseling. I've said so much to where I actually believe it now .I nodded my head in assurance for myself. I looked over at the clock and it said 8:35am.
Well time to get up.
I got up sluggishly making my way to the kitchen .My two pets trailing behind me for food. I had a dog named Shela who was a completely white German Husky with sapphire eyes that matched my own ,and a cat that had light tiger striped fur named Artemis. The two oddly got along with each other .They would even cuddle with each other which I find so freakin adorable. I put food in both of their bowls and went back to my room to get ready. I threw on something simple. A pair of black skinny jeans with a cotton button up blue shirt .Once I did that I put on my gold wing necklace and my favorite hoop earrings. Leaving my hair in natural curls I grabbed my motorcycle ,and left the house. It was cold wet and dreary….boy was this going to be a new way of life. I swung my legs on my bike.
Vroom! Vroom!
I smiled to myself at least that's something that'll never get old. Speeding away from the house I thought about my old life. Who knows. Forks might not be so bad.
