Hello, I got my first reviews yesterday! So i'm happy! Thnx Asherah Isa! :) So here it is!

I sip out of my dorm window into the warm daylight. I'm standing on the window ledge preparing to jump. It feels weird to sneak out during broad daylight, but that's the way we live, sleep during the day awake during the night.

Kirova and the protectors say it's for our safety and that there just protecting us. Well more or less there protecting the full bloods.

They never tell us what we are being protected of. Apparently when a wulfan is in its last year of training to be a protector that's when they are told what we are fighting against. They are sworn to secrecy and for some reason no one has ever told. You would think out of all the protectors one of them must have tattled at least once. Maybe it's just that horrific that they never want to speak of them.

My dorm is one the second floor, I jump from the ledge and midair shift so I have a soft safe landing. Once I am on the ground and I have my balance I shift back and make my way to the window that's in Lissa's dorm, keeping to the shadows.

When I reach Lissa's window is can see her looking out the window. She's on the third floor so this can get a little tricky. Full bloods aren't as graceful as wulfan in human form so she can't just jump out her window. Whenever we sneak out she always climbs down to the ledge on the second floor then jumps into me arms.

"Come on Lissa, we haven't got much time" I say as she stands on the second floor ledge. She nods but I can feel through our bond that she is nervous. We have done this thousands of times but each time Lissa still gets nervous.

I hold out my arms as Lissa falls down into them.

"See that wasn't too hard" I say to Lissa while she's in my arms. She jumps out of them as we hear.

"Hey. Who's there!" Great a protector heard us. Got to think fast.

I grab Lissa's hand a dash into a bush that's close to us. Jumping into that bush wasn't as good as an idea as I thought it was. There were twigs and stems everywhere stabbing into us and when we hit the ground it was hard as rocks, guess why? Because there was rocks all over the ground.

We had to wait a minute until the protector left. When we stood up we had scratches all over us and twigs and leaf's in our hair. We must have been a sight to see.

"Come on" I say to Lissa when I grab her hand and pull her into the shade of some nearby trees.

I look at Lissa and start laughing.

"What?"

"It's just, this" I reply while pulling a big twig out of her hair.

She pats down her hair looking for any other twigs and straights out her clothes. We walk in silence over to the forest near the left wing.

"What is it exactly that you sensed? And why couldn't we do this during lunch or something?"

"I don't know but it was strong. And I tried going here during our school days but it has never been here at night it only comes out at day"

"Ok but we need to be quick"

"Aren't I normally the cautious one?"

"You're right" I come to an abrupt stop "I don't know what's wrong with me" I say jokingly, Lissa and I smile.

We walk staring into the forest and Lissa changes into her wolf form. When full bloods change they look graceful and it looks natural and beautiful, a faint glowing light illuminates from her body. Unlike wulfan who look like there monsters with all their bones popping and rearranging themselves. Also when full bloods shift they look like actually wolfs.

Lissa leaps up onto a rock and sniffs around moving from tree to tree picking up a scent. Like she's following an invisible trail. Silently I follow after not wanting to disturb her, but I can tell that she's getting close.

I see a faint grow and relies it's just Lissa shifting.

I'm looking at an oddly shaped tree when Lissa stops and I run into her back snapping me back into reality and away from the tree. Lissa's eyes are trained on something on the ground, I look to where her eyes are and I see the faint glowing line that marks the school grounds.

"One step out and where unprotected, but if you really want to…" I trail off. Lissa doesn't have to tell me how much she wants to because I can feel it through the bond.

"Fine" I wonder what it is that makes Lissa want to do this so much but when I steal a look into her emotions I relies she doesn't know either.

She walks up to the line and raises her eyes to me. "Together?" She asks.

I walk up to the line right next to her "Together" I reply. She grabs my hand and we take a step over the line.

When no crazy light go off or alarms blear we continue to walk along. Lissa tilts her head up and her nostrils flare.

"We're so close" she pauses "You know how all our life's we've been told that it's so dangerous and scary out here"

"Yeah?" I ask.

"It's not it's actually quite beautiful" She says looking up to the green and orange leafs above us with the light filtering down between them. Once she points it out I notice the colours around us, the pinks and purples of flowers, the soft brown of the tree trunks and with the soft breeze and sound of bird chirping.

They sounded so happy and cheerful I strained my ear to hear more clear sounds when I picked up breathing, and it wasn't coming from me or Lissa.

I whip my head around searching for the source.

"Rose?" Lissa asks with caution unsure of what I'm doing.

"Listen" I whisper to her.

Her eyes go wide and I know that she's hear it to.

"That's it" she says "It's coming from what I sensed"

I look over Lissa's shoulder and see something move in the trees, there is no way I'm going to let Lissa get hurt. I must protect her.

As if on instinct I leap over Lissa and land in a crouched position in front of her. My eyes are aimed at the ground and I whip my head up and aim my eyes right into the things skull. I begin to snarl as if saying back off.

Lissa places her hand on my shoulder and I return to the standing position but still keeping her slightly behind me.

If I was the thing hiding in the shadows I would have ran away by now. Instead of running away it took a step forward. As it came forward into the light we could make out more and more what it was. When it took its final step out into the light we saw that it was a boy, a human boy.

"Hi, my name is Christian" he said cautiously.
