Princess of Rouges

As a Child

As a child I always knew I was different, I could run faster then the other kids and I always healed quicker, I am a orphan. well that's why I am at a orphanage, with people who hate me,
But there was a always a bright side to life, there was a forest near the orphanage, filled with wolves.

Everyone in the town said Never to go into the woods, it was filled with Wolves that would kill you without a second thought.

Well, what did I do?

I ran into the woods trying to get away from the other children, there I met the wolves...
-------------------------------------------
The blonde haired girl pushed me against the wall, "watch it freak" she spat angrily, I flinched back, I never wished to learn their names, I wasn't going to call them by their names.

All the other kids laughed and one kid with mousy brown hair decided to chuck a egg at me but it just missed my face, the other kids thought this was a sign to start chucking stuff at me.

Quickly I started to run away and trying to dodge the eggs, I had no where to run or hide, my eyes settled onto the forest.

The forest.

I ran into the forest "where did she go?" A child asked, there was a muffled response but yet i kept running until I couldn't hear the other children or anything slowing to a stop, my breaths were short and not to mention I was lost.

I walked for what seemed liked hours, it may of been hours, but now the sun was setting and it was starting to get dark, I ended up tripping on a tree root and it caused me to trip and start to roll down a hill.

At the bottom where I stopped, well I didn't stop I crashed into something hard, banging my head I felt a small trickle of blood run down my head, every thing went black.

There was a animal type growl and I just managed to open my eyes to see a large black wolf sniff me, his eyes a stunning green colour, he whined lowly and wrapped his body around my small shivering frame, which was highly under weight, the wolfs warmth seemed to stop my shivers and send me back into a deep sleep.

-dream-

I was hidden behind a tree watching a bunch of wolves, they were beatuiful, one of the wolves gave out a wolfy chuckle and a second later sounds of bones popping and man took the place of the wolf, a werewolf.

"You shouldn't be here Brooklyn, go home" he announced sadly, I opened my mouth to speak but no words came out, just a small animal growl.

The man just shook his head and everything started to fade...

-end of dream-

My head hurts, to say the least. opening my eyes, I did the first thing that came into my mind as I came face-to-face with....THAT!

I screamed.

"Hey, shh, don't worry" A voice said, it was a woman in her twenties, she had messy brown hair with caring feeling about her, I stopped screaming and edged backwards in the bed I was on, wait? Bed? Where the heck am I?

I opened my mouth to speak but I couldn't find the words to say anything about this situation. I watched the six wolves that sat around the bed in this very large room, the woman was saying something but I wasn't listening, slowly I edged towards one of the wolves, a dirty beige coloured one which was massive and sat the furthest away, He was the angriest wolf there was right bow, and yet all the other wolves were scared of him.

This wolf you can practically feel it's hatred towards humans, he was beaten most proberly.

He growled at me, but ignoring the growl I continued to advance, fear wasn't eating me alive right this second, odd...

I was only a couple of centimetres away from this angry wolf who was snapping his jaws at me, but I continued to get closer, taking note that the woman and the other wolves were watching me, he wasn't going to hurt me.

Realising this I carefully lifted my hand palm up so he can smell it and quietly whispered "I don't like humans either"
The wolf seemed to understand me and cocked its head to the side. but was still defensive.

"They beat me up as well, they call me names and they don't like me" I added, the wolf whined lowly, I managed to put my hand onto his maze and start to stroke him, "I like wolves... especially ones that live alone but join with other lonely wolves. they understand..." I trailed off, taking in the beauty of the wolf.

"My god...." the woman muttered in shock, my head started to hurt, it was like something was trying to surface but it couldn't for some strange reason, "I am 10 years old. My name is Brooklyn Winters... A orphan, and you want to know a secret?" I asked, carefully I whispered in the wolf ear before I fell back into a deep dreamless painful sleep...

"I've forgotten my past, I only remember the wolves"
