I flinch as the screams once again fill my sensitive wolf ears. 'You heard that right?' I mind link Arya.
"Yes I did. Are we going to see who it's coming from?" Her human voice says from behind me.
'I don't know about you but I am.' I link and run towards the screams.
"Alex wait! We don't know if it's safe!" Arya yells at me but I'm too full of adrenaline to listen.
I am not letting another person die at the hands of my father.
"Please help!" The person yells again and it fuels my body even more.
It's a girl and I follow her scent to a patch of tall grass. At first I don't see her but then I see something poking out of the grass. A pair of rabbit ears?
I walk up to see a brunette girl who looks no older then seven years of age. Her hair goes down to her shoulders and her emerald green eyes stick out against her pale skin. Her clothes matted with sweat and dirt and there's a pair of rabbit ears on the top of her head telling me that's she's still shifting. Her body is shaking no doubt from the pain that I know she's going through. The first shift is always the hardest.
She screams when she sees me as a wolf so I quickly shift into human form. I kneel down beside her and I can see her shaking body cower in fear. "Mister are you going to hurt me like the other man? He scares me."
I shake my head as I answer her, "No, I'm here to help you. I know exactly what you're going through. What's your name?"
Instead of moving back even more she jumps into my arms and buries her face into my chest. I slowly wrap my arms around her tiny form.
She lets out a whimper and I can feel her body shaking under my arms. "My name is Daisy mister and I miss my Mama and Papa."
I can feel her tears dampen my t-shirt and I hear Arya's footsteps as she approaches us. "My name is Alex and that's Arya. We're going to get you back to your parents ok?"
She nods and I stand up with her still in my arms, holding her like a baby. I see a little patch of fur start to grow on her cheek. I put the hood of her sweater up so it hides the rabbit ears and I start to walk out of the forest. Hopefully Arya is not that far behind.
