One Day Human, Werewolf the Next.

Chapter 6- The Legend of Silama

ALLISON'S POV

They were all staring at me, as I was some kind of freak. But now, I was beginning to think that I was. The elderly man's eyes were only on me. 

"Silama. She is here."

I ran behind a tree, and shifted back into a human. I came back out, and everyone was still staring at me. What is going on!? 

My eyes met Connor's, who was also staring at me. I need a hug from him. I need him to tell me that everything is okay. 

" Who is Silama?"

No one spoke. The only noise that could be heard were a few howls in the distance. The first one to speak was once again, the old man. He grabbed my arm, and led me to a bench. He sat beside me.

" A long, long time ago, there were many great wolves that roamed the Earth. Many were good, and many used their forces for evil. The most powerful wolf was a female named Silama. She was a black and red wolf, just like you. 

Back in those days, half of the world was separated for wolves and vampires. Whoever crossed the boundaries of a clan was prosecuted. Now, a few vampires had crossed many borders, and attacked clans, turning werewolves into vampires. We had declared war on the vampires, but instead of sending many vampires over to fight us, they sent their strongest vampire, Coluka. He was a VERY strong vampire, and he had killed so many humans that even vampires feared him. 

Our strategy, was to send Silama to fight Coluka. When that day arrived, the fight was hosted on the border of our two territories. The two councils decided to make a big circle in the middle of the two territories, indicating where the two would fight. The vampires were in their territory, and we were in ours.The winner of the battle would claim the land of the werewolves AND vampires. A howl represented the beginning of this epic battle.

The two fought and fought. Sometimes Silama would be dragged to the ground, and sometimes Coluka would be pounded down. After many hours, Silama managed to jump on Coluka, and snapped his neck . Before dieing, Coluka closed his eyes, and stuck his hand out in front of his body. Silama violently started twitching, and a star mark formed on her neck. Our wolf healers tried to save her, but it was too late. She had lost the battle, and so had he. The vampires managed to gain a lot of the land that should had been ours. The remaining land that we own was is only ours because we killed thousands to have it."

He closed his eyes, and remained silent for a moment. I was speechless. I looked over towards Connor, who had his head bent down. All the wolves were looking down, with mortified look on their faces. What did this have to do with me?

" This has very much to do with you."

I let out a gasp. How did he know what I was thinking about?

" As old as I am, I can read minds, and do much more than you could possibly imagine."

I bowed my head down in respect.

"Back to the story. Now, this was thousands of years ago. Legend says that the spirits of Coluka and Silama will inhabit the body of a werewolf and a vampire. Both of them will need to battle, in order to finally determine who will get the land."

I remained silent. I would have to-kill-someone.

" That is correct, my child."

I looked up to find the old man smiling at me.

"Luckily, you will have the best trainer in the clan, to prepare you for the battle."

" But.. what about Coluka?"

Many people shifted uneasily at these. Tamara hung on to her brother's arm.

" We have not heard any news about Coluka recently. But vampire attacks have been very common, so I believe that the battle will happen soon."

Connor's father cleared his throat, and stepped forward.

" Now that we know what your wolf is capable of, we will need you to stay in the pack home. We will bring your mother in too. That way, we will be able to train you and keep an eye on you, in case anything happens. You may return to your previous activities."

Everyone split up, with stunned looks on their faces. But none of them could compare what I was feeling right now. Stressed, sad, surprised. I ran after the elderly man.

" Excuse me sir?"

He turned around, and smiled.

" Hello child. Please, call me Henry."

" Uh. Henry? Why did Silama choose my body? Why not someone else's body, that has more experience killing and figh-"

" She has chosen you because she has a good feeling about you. I can feel that too."

And with that, he walked away, leaving me alone, in the green clearing, wondering about my future, and what would become of me.

" Ally? Are you okay?"

I span around, to find Connor looking at me.

" Yeah.. I guess."

His arms wrapped themselves around me, and I sunk my head into his chest. I sniffed, and smelled a nice minty scent. Mmm.

" Let's go tell your mom, and pack your belongings."

He held my hand, and gave it a little squeeze, while giving me a little smile. I squeezed his hand back, and smiled. Of course it was a fake smile. I was lost in thought. My life had drastically changed in less than an hour.

UNKNOWN POV

I came running back to Anthony, who was hooded, as I was.

" She knows. Who she is."

He gasped, and smiled.

" Well, at least we know who Silama is. Luckily, they do not know who Coluka is. They will lose their land, because of their pathetic little Silama, and we will gain what should have been ours."
