Supernatural Academy

Chapter 6- Backstory

10 years earlier:
Theodore, Wesley, and Sam are 3years old
Jason is 9 years old
Jaxon and Charlie are 15years old

"Wessy! Wessy!" Theodore says running to his best friend, to give him a hug. He'd been waiting ages for Charlie to bring him over, so they could go play in the river, in reality he had only been waiting 20 minutes. (LMAO I realize they're only 3 years old, I swear the river is shallow and they're not unsupervised when playing in it so please don't come at me saying how dangerous this is 🥲 it wasn't super well thought out plus this book is fiction so ya know anything can happen right?) "T hold on! You're gonna get syrup all over him!" Jaxon said chasing his baby brother. Their parents, the alpha and Luna of the pack, were meeting with their neighbouring pack across the river. Jaxon and Charlie, being the next alpha and beta, would've been at the meeting as well, but both had agreed to watch their younger siblings. This was a more serious meeting, and wouldn't have been one for the pups to sit in on, plus their parents would fill them in later. It was also summer vacation for the older two boys, and so they didn't hate the idea of spending time with their little brothers since they'd be going back to the academy in 2 months.

"B-but JJ! Wessy needs a hug or he'll be sad!" Theodore pouted as Jaxon caught him and started wiping him down. "You're such a messy eater, remind me why I decided to make you pancakes?" He said shaking his head, as he wiped the syrup out of Theodore's hair. "M'not messy. I-it was the syrup, it got messy all by itself! Like magic JJ!" Theodore said, licking his lips before Jaxon could wipe the syrup from his mouth. "JJ made pancakes? I only got toast, and Char burned it!" Wesley said huffing and crossing his little arms. Theodore giggled breaking from Jason's hold and running towards his best friend. "Don't worry Wessy! I saved you some." Theodore tried to whisper, he doesn't get the concept of quieting his voice to whisper. He thinks a whisper is just something secret, so he cuffed his hands around his lips, and told Wesley his "secret", and then opened his backpack to show a small container full of syrup, and 6 pancakes, the same 6 pancakes Jaxon made for himself and Charlie. Guess he'd be making more now he thought to himself. At least he didn't take the waffles he had made for Jason, otherwise he'd have to make more of that too.

"Did you leave any syrup for me?" Charlie asked pretending to be upset. Theodore nodded and told him he had a secret bottle of syrup hidden in his room that he could use. "JJ h-has to make more pancakes for you Char, b-because because he ate them all!" Theodore told him forgetting that Jaxon could see his 6 pancakes in the container. Jaxon rolled his eyes, of course he stole his pancakes and was stashing away syrup, he knew he had bought 3 bottles during the last grocery trip, not 2. "Don't go eating that syrup in the river okay? Do you know what would happen to all the fish in there if you did?" Charlie asked the two pups who were laughing to themselves. They had planned on sharing the pancakes with the little boy from across the river. His name was Sam and he was from their neighbouring pack. The boys had been not so secretly playing together for months. At first, when the older boys saw 3 pups in the river instead of 2, they panicked and mind linked their parents, who confirmed it was just a little boy from the other pack. That day Jaxon and Charlie realized why they loved to play in the river.

"What's gonna happen To the fishies Char?" Wesley asked his brother, hoping it wouldn't hurt them. This wouldn't have been the first time they were eating pancakes and syrup near the river. "Oh! I know Char! The f-fishies would taste yummy like the candy." Theodore said so sure of himself. "But teddy bear, you don't eat fish." Charlie responded. "Oh yeah." Theodore said now remembering this fact. The boys had watched Finding Nemo, and the "fish are friends, not food" line stuck with them, and they both refused to eat fish since. "Jax, should we tell them? I don't know if they're old enough to know yet though." Charlie said, peaking the interest of the pups. Being 3 years old was a big deal, they were definitely old enough.
