Lost

12

So I am going to be gone for a week, so I am going to give a double update and maybe one when I get back. now READ ON!!

I wake up with a smirk on my face. wanna know why? CauseI got a plan. so I get up and shower the pit on black ripped skinny jeans and a shirt that says 'me, sarcastic? Never'. then I scream.

First guards come in then Tim then Kay fallowed by Jackson and then a few other people including AG, Jake, and pickle. Kay has a smirk on her face knowing I was up to something.

"Thanks that you guys are so eager to party on my birthday, but I think we should save some party for later" I tell them and then walk out with people looking at me as if I had grown another head.

I walk down stairs and get a box of cereal and start eating it because everyone knows it's better without the milk or bowl.

"Why would you wake us up at 6 in the morning?" AG asks coming down stairs.

"Well one, it was funny. two, I was board. three, why didn't you go back to bed like everyone else?. And four, ... I don't have a four."
I explain.

"I couldn't fall back a sleep and why can't you be normal and wake up at 10:30 instead of 6:00?" He asks.

"Why can't you ask a simple question?" I retort as I put away my box of cereal. yeah that's right I have my very own box of cereal. mostly because I wrote my name on every inch of it.

He puts his hands up in serener.

"How's the birthday girl" Kay interrupts.

"It's your birthday?" AG asks me.

"What do you not get about the phrase 'birthday girl'?"

"In other words how old are you turning?" Asks AG.

"16" I answer.

"Cool, so you'll be shifting today"

"Nope" I tell him

"Ummm Isla, when you turn 16 you shift for the first time."

"Ohh well I guess I won't be shifting for the first time then"

He face palms. "Isla, you have no say in this. you shift no matter what."

"Well I can but it would be for a reason. Like if I want to go for a run or if rouges attack or some other thing."

" I am not going to win this am I?"

"Probably, and good job for coming to realization that I always win." I tell him.

"Whatever, now if you can please explain to me why you won't be shifting today?"

"Well I might but not for the first time" I explain.

"So you already shifted?"

"Yes"

"When?" He asks me

"When I was 12"

"That young! Why?"

"I don't really want to talk about it" I tell him getting depressed. that is still a sore subject.
" I'm going to go for a run. I'll be back later" I tell them still thinking about the answer to his question.

As I am walking out AG stops me.
"Isla wait, if this is about what I said then I am sorry"

"Just forget about it" I say shrugging him off and grabbing a hoodie before walking out.

I decide to run in human form, and next thing I know I am by the road leading into town. I look to see if there is anyone around and then I howl. I let everything I have kept in over the year out in that howl. anger, sadness, fear, worry, and regret.

'Maybe we should walk back' April tells me.

'Or at least walk somewhere'

'How about that lake just in side the territory. know one ever really goes there' she suggests.

'That sounds nice'

When I get there I pull my hoodie over my head and sit by the water.
