The Alphas Warrior in Training

Chapter One: Training

As I run through the forest behind my house, I can feel someone is following me. I pick up my speed but the keep following. I can hear them now and it's almost like I can feel them grab me but right before they do... 

I jump up startled trying to reorientate myself I look around realizing I am at home in my room. As I am looking at my surroundings, I see the time and jump up realizing I am running late for breakfast. I jump out of bed and rush to the bathroom to brush my teeth and pull my straight light brown hair up into a ponytail. I have never thought I was the prettiest person but as I look in the mirror, I can see something is different. My mood is better, and it is brightening my face. I throw on some training clothes and sprint out my bedroom door and head downstairs for breakfast with my family.

My family is already sitting at the table chowing down. "Well good morning sleeping beauty" Boston says. I flip him off as usual. As I sit down, I look at my family. First my Brother's, Boston and Grayson, they are twenty-one and are twins and look so much like my dad that if he were younger you would confuse them as triplets instead. Boston and Grayson both have dark tan skin, Dark brown hair, and Dark Brown eyes. Everything about them is dark and they love it. They are also both very muscular and if you didn't know them personally you would have a hard time telling them apart. I look at my dad next he is much the same as my brothers, but you can tell that life is getting to him and he is ready to slow down a little bit. My Mom is next, sitting right next to my father, with her small frame pin straight Light Brown hair and Bright blue eyes I take after my mom in the terms of family looks. As I tune back into the conversation my parents and brother have been talking about training and other business. I look at the clock and realize I need to leave. I get up and hug everyone bye and head out.

As I walk, I look around at the beauty that is my pack. I am part of the Blue Moon pack and I am currently training to be a pack warrior. I have straight brown hair bright blue eyes and a round face. I have a very small body frame but long legs. I am small but strong thanks to my werewolf genes. Both of my parents are pack warriors as well as my brothers who will one day take over as warrior leaders and work alongside out future Alpha, Beta, and Gamma to protect the pack. Due to being a pack warrior running in our family I have been waiting for the day I could train and be just like them and today is that day.

As I reach the training arena, I look around at it. It looks exactly as it sounds, we have an outside area which is where most of the sparing and weapons training resides and an inside area that is full of different weight training machines as well as a boxing ring for more controlled hand-to-hand combat training is held for those who want to get better at that. It is not much but it is perfect for our pack. We are not a small pack, but we are also not the biggest and because of this most of our pack members get training in case something was to happen they would have a fighting chance. This was an order from the Alpha, everyone starts basic training at sixteen and at eighteen they will then move on to their specialty training or other jobs that can help benefit the pack.

"Addie, get over here!" calls the Lead Pack warrior Derek. He is a tall dark man with dark hair and dark eyes. He oversees all training and reports back to the alpha on daily progress and those who have a future as a pack warrior and those who do not. I run over to him not wanting to make him wait. "Yes sir?" I say when I reach him. I am not sure what he is wanting to say but I am sure it is because I am later than usual. With him it is always "Early is on time and on time is late." "I just wanted to give you a progress report on how you are doing so far?" he says. My mouth drops open that is not what I that he was going to say but I will take that over anything. "Oh, yes sir, how have I been doing?" I ask. "You have been doing great and I really do see a future for you as a pack warrior. There are a couple things I would like for you to focus on. So, for the next week we are going to work together in the afternoons on some hand-to-hand combat techniques that I think could really improve your skillsets." As he says this, I can already feel myself nodding in agreement. "Yes, sir that sounds great. Thank you Sir!" I say training to control my level of excitement at this new development. "You're welcome, now go to your group quickly before they get started."

I take off towards my training group and I can already see the questioning look on my friend's face. Becca has short blonder hair with bright blue eyes. She is a lot curvier than me, but she has always been my friend. We grew up together and as I look at the expression on her face, I can't help but laugh as I remember all the times, she has given me that face when I have done something reckless. As I get close, I throw my hands up and say, "I didn't do anything I swear!" she sighs and the bust out into to a fit of giggles. "I know I overheard him talking to the other warrior leaders about giving you extra training." I slap her arm in retaliation. "Really Becca then why did you give me "the face"?" I ask her, shaking my head as I wait for her answer but before she could give me one our group leader calls us to attention.

"Good morning everyone I hope you had a good weekend, but it is time to get your head back into training this morning. Since today is your first full week of training and not just separating you out into your groups, we will be starting off this morning with a light run to get your muscles moving them I will pair you up. After I pair you up, we will have a short water break and you will wait for my instructions. Understood?" "Yes Sir!" we all reply "Follow me" he says.

We take off at a face pace through a trail in the woods. As I run, I try not to get distracted by the beauty around us and keep focused on the run. I follow the group I notice that this trial has been designed with a few obstacles to help keep my attention. We jump over small logs, rocks and even go up a small hill and down it before we circle back and are back in the training arena. "Alright before our water break, I am going to split you into pairs so pay attention I will not be repeating myself. Alyssa and Haylee, River and Garret, Addie and Becca..." I tune out the rest of the conversation looking over at Becca. She is the Gammas Daughter, and I am the Daughter of higher-ranking warriors. I had a feeling we would be pair together.

Training continues until it is time for lunch, "Alright gather around!" Our group leader calls. We all stop what we are doing and form a semi-circle in front of him. "Training has been canceled for the rest of the day. Alpha has called for a mandatory meeting after lunch and everyone is to attend. I expect each of you to be on time! I will be watching for you each of you. Being present when your Alpha calls as you all know is important but as a warrior you will be held to a higher standard than most! Dismissed!" We all dissipate and head our separate ways.

"I wonder what the meeting is about. Becca do you know anything about this?" "No, I don't." Huh that's weird most of the time she normally has a heads up since her dad is gamma of the pack. "hopefully it's just nothing." She comments. I look at her "yeah, hopefully."

We head our separate ways for lunch. As I walk into the door at home it is quiet, so I know my family isn't home. I make a quick bite to eat then head upstairs to freshen up a little bit and as I do, I can't help but to think about what this meeting must be about. I walk out of the house now and walk to the pack house where all meetings take place. When I get there, I spot my group leader and nod my head. When I look up, I see the Dark red brick of the pack house. The Pack house is for any all members to live. Most of the people who live in the pack house are those who did not want to live at home anymore and are single. I decided to stay at home with my family, but Becca chose to move to the pack house instead. I walk down the center isle and stand next to my family. I have two older brothers who are both pack warriors as well they are tall and take after my father with Blonde hair and dark brown eyes, sharp angular faces and they are both built incredibly muscular. "Hey guys!" I says as I step in line with them, they all say hey back but before we can say anything more the Alpha steps out onto the podium.
