The Chosen One (unedited)

Chapter 20

           

After playing with the elements a while longer, Dylan decided that I needed a break. So, he drove us to McDonalds.

"I'll have two Mcdoubles, a McChicken, two medium fries, a Coke and one orange Hi C please." Dylan ordered for us.

"Thank you, your total is $8.99." The voice responded.

We pulled up and waited behind the car in front of us.

"Who's the McChicken for?" I asked Dylan.

"Me, why?" He asked, looking over at me.

I raised an eyebrow at him. "You're going to eat two burgers? What a cow." I giggled quietly.

"What? I'm eating for two." He said, smirking at me.

"Oh, so you're pregnant." I laughed. He glared at me. I knew he meant his cat side, but I couldn't help but tease him.

The car in front of us finally pulled away, and we pulled up to the window to get our food. The lady at the window looked a year or so older than us, and I couldn't help but noticed the way she smiled at Dylan as he passed her his card. When she handed it back she made sure their fingers touched. I rolled my eyes.

"Thank you." Dylan smiled at the girl, as she handed us our food.

"She was totally hitting on you." I told him as we pulled off.

"What? No she wasn't." how could he be so blind? Did he not know how hot he was?

"She was."

"Oh well, doesn't matter anyways." I didn't ask him to elaborate cause I already knew what he meant.

I didn't realize how long we were driving until we pulled up at a park that I've never been to.

"Why are we at a park?" I asked him confused.

"To eat duh." He told me as he parked the car and got out. I rolled my eyes.

I followed Dylan over to a bench with a table. He sat down, and I sat across from him. I waited as he passed me my food. Opening my burger, I spread the paper out so that I can pour my fries onto it.

"So, is there anything else angels can do?" Dylan asked, while biting into his burger.

"I don't know Jacob didn't tell me." I stuffed a few fries in my mouth.

"Do you trust him?" He asked.

"Why wouldn't I?" I wasn't one hundred percent about Jacob, but he seemed trustworthy.

"I don't know, he just kind of appeared out of nowhere. That doesn't seem a little bit strange to you?"

I never thought about it that way. He also did have someone kidnap. A person I haven't seen again.

"Well if he was going to hurt me he could've already." I told him shrugging. It's true, he didn't have to tell me I was an angel or help me with my powers.

"Yeoh I guess so. Just be careful around him." My heart warmed at his caring words.

"Don't worry about me I'll be fine." I told him smiling. I'm always at ease when I'm around Dylan.

"I'll do some research later to see what powers angels usually have. You know like read a book or something." He said.

"Thanks that'd be awesome, but shouldn't we work on what we already know first?" I asked.

"You're right, but I'm curious to know more." He was like a nerd at a Star Wars convention, I noticed. I laughed at my comparison. I could totally see him as a Star Wars fan.

"What are you laughing about?" He asked suspiciously.

"Oh nothing." I answered quickly.

"When's the last time you shifted?" He asked me suddenly. I racked my memories trying to remember.

"Back at the arcade." I've been so busy thinking about being an angel that I forgot all about my wolf. This made me kind of sad, how could I just forget her like that?

"Well you want to go for a run? In case you didn't notice we're surrounded by a forest." I hadn't noticed. Behind the park there was literally a forest.

"Yes, I'd love to!" I told him hoping off the bench. He laughed and got up leading me to the forest. Before I could even blink Dylan shifted into this huge black panther, as soon as he was in the cover of the trees. I was impressed, I remember seeing him as a tiger, but the panther really suited him more.

"Shift already." I heard a voice in my head rush me. I blushed, realizing I was totally checking his cat out.

Before he could notice my pink cheeks I quickly shifted into my wolf. Dylan starred at me openly with admiration in his eyes. I looked down to avoid eye contact, jumping back with a yelp. My paws were white. Last time I shifted they were black.

"Dylan what color is my wolf!!?" I asked panicky.

"It's this beautiful pure white." He said still admiring me, and not noticing my panic.

"Oh my god. My wolf was black before!" I told him. Making him snap out of his trance.

"What do you mean? Your fur changed colors? I've never heard of that happening." He noted, shock clear in his voice.

"What does this mean? Is my wolf dying!?" I asked horrified at the thought. Dylan ignored my question as he studied me.

"Maybe this has something to do with your angel."

"Are you saying my angel is killing my wolf!!? Why?" I asked still panicking. Not comprehending what he was trying to say.

"No, I don't think your wolf is dying. I'm saying once you tapped into your powers it must've affected your wolf as well. Since it's a part of you." Dylan said.

I thought about his explanation and it made sense to me. I started to calm down.

"Well that's.... Interesting." I took another look at my paws again.

"Indeed, it is." I heard leaves crunching and as I looked up Dylan was running away from me.

"Hey!" I started running after him. My wolf picking up speed every step.

"Keep up slow poke!" He teased in my head. I growled and pushed myself more. Within minutes I was inches away from him. Just as I was about to bite him, he darted to the left and up a tree.

"Hey that's no fair I had you!" I yelled at him. I could hear him laughing in my mind.

"If you had me then I wouldn't be in this tree right now, now would I?" I could just feel his smirk. I growled.

He walked to the edge of a branch right above my head and laid down, swiping his paw at me. I turned around and tried to bite it. He just chuckled.

"Calm down turtle."

I was about to make a rude comment when suddenly, I caught a scent, and stiffened.
