"We my mate, are about to find out plenty about this school and my shift" I told him as I found a space to place my fingers in the wall, I pulled and it creaked open.

I pulled my phone out and turned the flash light on. Stepping into the tunnel and flashing my light around. The walls were covered in cobwebs and the floor was covered with years of dirt. Everything looked brown but I'm sure it use to be a different color. I stepped farther in and pulled out the old map making sure we won't get lost, I know where I want to go.

Issc followed close behind pulling out his phone. "Hey wait a sec, before we get into any sort of trouble. Tell me your okay, your family was murdered, gosh damn it!" He whisper yelled at me. Concern covered his face as I flashed my light up at him "they died because of me. No I'm not okay, but we need too... I need to know about why it had to be me, why it couldn't of been someone else" I finished in a whisper.

"Why on earth do you hate your shift so much? Your fox is made for you way before your even born. You didn't do anything special. It choose you for you. You-" I cut him off. "I never said I hated my shift. I love being a fox I'm so much stronger then a normal fox I can even take down full adult males who weigh four times my body weight" I said turning around and following the tunnel.

"But my entire life beyond this point feels like a lie. I was a normal girl and I was planning on going to college. I wanted to start a better life in another state and bring my parents with me, they deserved that much" I finished as I notice the tunnel getting wider and more open like a hallway. I looked at the map and noticed " there's a split coming up ahead I say we take the right path it has more twists and turns but it leads to what looks like a large room."

As we came to the split we took right and kept on moving. " Hey, I really want to apologize for your parents they had no right to die like that. But I thought you were like Jasmines sister" I nodded my head. That's what we want everyone to think because this school is for rich pack wolves and sup species, I wouldn't of gotten in without Jazzy. "Because my parents weren't shifters I was adopted when I was young. Jasmine is my best friend, we met in school and ever since we were attached to the hip" I flashed my light up head and saw a few doors, some to my left and right and one right in front of us.

I reach up for the handle and twist and it breaks off into my hand and the door slowly and dramatically swung open. "Nice job" issc said laughing and I dropped the handle. "Let's go" I laughed a little as well, walking in I noticed the wall full of bookshelves, but no books. I walk in farther and notice paper scattered all around the room. A huge oak desk lay flipped over on it's top and claw marks rack it's underside.

"Someone got mad" Issc said picking up papers from the floor "and they're blank" I shook my head and started picking up the papers from the floor up and putting them in a neat stack. I flipped the desk over and heard the things still in the drawers bounced around as the desk hit the floor.

I reached for the drawers pulling them all open one by one to examine the contents. I found pens markers and a book inside the desk.

I pulled the book out and noticed it had a lock holding the cover shut. I looked around the room and resumed searching the room. Issc had yet to find anything as he was looking at all the blank papers making sure none of them had anything on them just in case.

I walked over to a door connected to the room and turned the nob. The door opened to a very dark room, everything was covered in so much dust it looked grey. I walked in and glanced around the old room looking for anything that could hold a key. I noticed a bed and night stand on the far side of the room.

I walked closer to the bed and noticed that the blankets use to be a bright orange and red but now they were almost stained grey with age and dust. I reached for the nightstand drawer and pull it open. Sitting in the drawer was a book and a key, I pulled them out of the drawer and closed it back.

"Hey I found something" I said coming back into the main room. "About time these are just all blank papers" he said and he got to his feet from his knelling position. "A key and a book, might be something" I said as I walked over to the locked book in the table and I used the key.

The book popped open sending dust into the air, I opened the book but only to see that it was a diary of a little boy. He said he could talk to the moon goddess herself. He was pushed away and rejected by his mate. His mother then left him and began a new life in a city far away. He was left alone but this school saves him, and sent him to hell all at once.
