left for dead

"it was just a test"

"never underestimate anything you see wolf, it might be a trick" my father told me before I was taken away from him by my own people.

"why has humanity become so cruel like we had fallen from Grace." I spoke before getting hit.

"B2 youth female, stay silent" they commanded.

'never underestimate anything you see...' were the words that stuck with me. "why would my father tell me such a thing? does he know that the end is near, or was it a warning...?" I couldn't get why he said that, but hopefully I can get back from what ever is in my way.

The large man threw me into a containment room. It was very open and large, larger than the dark room me and Dad stayed in. I scanned the room for anything that would give me a clue, or for any traps. Father had always told me that the humans were turned cruel an unethical after the virus when he was just a boy. They would make the males fight to death over rights for a female, and the females would have to solve puzzles for rights to be able to have children. All for the enjoyment of humankind. A large animal bonded towards me then I realized the containment room turned into a forest. The animal was alone, it had red eyes and ... smoke..? My throat felt dry and began to cough, as I coughed I grabbed out my dagger given to me by my furry father. The animal lunged at me I slit it's throat, and it seemed uninjured. The animal stopped and looked at me. Probably sizing me up to itself, then it leaped forward again this time I got it's eye. I stabbed the dagger as far as I could get it in. Blood covered my hands and my once silver dagger was now painted in red. The animal whimpered in pain and and snapped at me almost getting my arm. I tried to pull my dagger out from its eye socket and it was good and stuck.

"Great..." I thought to myself as the animals slinged its head around, I fell back to the ground my dagger being pulled back with me out of the animal's eye. Once had I sat up the animal was looking directly at me, it had a very wolfish appearance to it. The animals bared its teeth at me smoke emitting from its nostrils and muzzle. I stared this animal down, all I could think about was my father's words during our teachings.

"Remember to make eye contact, some people or things would rather not attack you if they know you can see there movements"

"Other kins are kinda like animals, but with a more complex brain then a normal animal. We can process things quickly and make a decision in seconds. And sence I'm older and seen some shit, my decision making has became hazy compared to you my little wolf."

"Remember. The belly is the most vulnerable spot on any one. Get a knife through there they're done and over with, as long as it's very deep and hits a important arterie."

"That's it! The belly!" I thought getting up on to my legs, I can feel something running down my right one. It was probably blood from hitting a rock or something. I crouched down a little bit protecting my stomach area, I had my dagger ready to strike at any moment if that animal comes and attacks.  I stared it down like it was to me, it took a small step but was hesitant. I gave a low growl like I did to my father when I was little and not in the mood to play with the other pups. The animal looked to rock side to side slowly seeming hesitant and scared. So in it's petrified state I snarled stepping closer, it too snarled but was stepping back Head down and rocking. I bolted to the animal stabbing it is the side hoping to get a artery of some kind. I kept stabbing it noticing that the forest was now gone and we were back into a containment cell looking room. When I was restrained by the human looking guard was the only time I stopped stabbing the animal, for good.

" A little wild isn't she?"

"Very much so, let's return her back to her group before she gets more violent."
