Animalistic Spirits

Chapter 2: Passing Down The Knowledge

"James are you coming down, you have to get ready for school," my mom would yell out as she was down stairs getting ready herself to go out looking for a job.

I would come down stairs groggily as I held my head, "Do you think I could stay home today?" I would ask, "My head still really hurts from yesterday and I feel a bit nauseous" I said as I sat down at the table. My mom would walk over and place her hand on my forehead, "Oh my god you're burning up, yeah go ahead and go back to bed and lay down I'll inform the school".

"Thanks mom" replying back as I would head upstairs to the bed and lay down in bed. I would close my eyes again going back to sleep for what felt like minutes turned into a few hours. Asleep and cuddled up perfectly comfortable just to be woken up by someone shaking me. "Huh?" I woke up with my hair a mess, shirtless, and a bit of drool dried on my cheek and chin to see Henry.

"Yoooo what's up my guy, how you feeling buddy?" he said smiling curious as to why actually how did he get in here. "You know for being in a big house with a nice gate, it was really easy for us to get in", wait us who else is here. My eyes still groggy adjusting to my surroundings as I sat up in bed to see a group of people in my room.

"Wait, what the hell?" I said aloud as I rubbed my eyes to see Henry in my room still in belief but with Brooke, Selena and another guy who looked sort of like Henry, but older. "How did you all get into my house, and why here in my room?" I was so confused to the action, I had just met these people yesterday well majority of them yesterday and now they break into my house.

"We had to, alright we all had......" Henry was cut off by the older version of himself. "Look we are a group of supernatural individuals who are able to turn into animals we are tied to and we use this ability to fight off Wendigos" he said though giving a pause to let it set in. I was going to respond and give them a piece of my mind before he started speaking again, "Last night we were all connected through our dreams in our animal form brought together due to your welcoming into the group," ok this has gone on for far to long.

"Look I don't know you I don't care to know you and you three I barely met, but still gives neither of you the cause or reason to break into my house while I am sleeping to spew some bull crap lies such as that", I spoke as they all just looked at me than back to themselves.

"I told you we should've just waited until we were all at school," Selena would say the only one making sense.

"I mean we still can, I can knock him out make it look like a bad dream," Brooke stated, now they were talking to each other like I wasn't in the room.

"No it's fine he's just not use to having company yet," Henry would state this unbelievable claim. Like why would having company affect me in any way, wait why am I thinking this I should just say it.

"Why is that even part of the cards the only person who spoke any sense is Selena," I stated upset still. "Like come on your prank literally couldn't have waited until I was back at school".

"It's no prank man we are being serious," Henry pleaded with him as he would look back to the others as in help. He looked over to his look alike. "Come on Austin at least let me change in order to show him"

"Fine, but take your clothes off at least we can't have you ripping through your clothes you don't have any hidden here," he would say to Henry as he would step back along with the others while Henry got undressed.

"Woah woah woah Henry dude don't get naked in front of me man," I pleaded to Henry as I finally stood up on the bed getting back to the wall. Before my eyes his skin began to go red and smoke was suddenly coming from Henry's body as he got shorter and kneeled down out of sight by my footboard. "H..He..Henry?" looking over at the others unfazed as to what was happening. "Hen.....", I would say scared for my life at this moment as a big white wolf would jump onto the bed. Growling and barking at me, "Oh crap!" I would exclaim falling off the bed onto my back as this wolf jumped on top of me. He would then get off and sit there looking at me in the eyes as his eyes looked familiar and strangely human. "Henry is that you", the wolf would nod as I looked back at the others not really believing this is happening.
