When Alana woke up she was in her bed. Alana was half expecting to be on the clif. Flashes of her dream kept coming to her mind. bits and pieces about a teenage couple in a car screaming. And Lots of blood. She shook the horrible feeling that came with the dream and got up to go to school.

Once at school She noticed a bunch of police officers And a bunch of students crying. She saw the car from her dream And body bags. two body bags.
her best friend kalli rammed into her Tears staining her cheek. And babbling. "There dead! Alana! Trish And Alex! there Dead!" Trish was a Cheerleader who hated the popular crowed so on the first day of school she sat at the loser table A.k.A: Kalli and Alana's table. And Alex was her nerdy boyfriend Who could do anything techy.

Alana Had a really bad feeling about this. It weighed on her like She had done it. In fact she Knew she had done it. She could not even look at there bodies. She had to look away. She was a monster. She was a freak. Alana Began to have a panic attack. She put her hands on her head. And wanted to pull out her Brown hair out strand by strand. 'What is wrong with me.' she thought. Horrible images of herself screaming in agony While all her bones cracked and morphed. While she grew Claws and paws.
While she Turned into the Wolf. The werewolf. When the word popped in her head. She Ran. Werewolf. There was no way she could be one. "Where are you going?!" Kalli yelled after her But she did not answer her. She ran straight home.

When she got home she pulled out her laptop and went on Google. Typed Werewolf in the search box. About a million links came up. Online games, Halloween costumes, How to bake Werewolf cookies. All stuff that was useless.
So she went back to search and typed. Legends of Werewolves.

So many things popped up. How to kill werewolves, The wiki for werewolves.


"I was not bit!" Alana Said as she looked over body for bite marks." Then The phone rang. When she picked it up the Caller I.D Read. Bobby Black. Her dad.
She took a deep breath. And answered the phone. "Hey Dad." She said. "Dad? Im not that old." Said her Brother Jake. "Oh. Hi Jake." She said. Jake laughed Huskily. "Happy birthday, Alana." He said. She could her a bunch of other people in the back ground yelling at each other. But she had no Idea who they were.

"Its my birthday!?" Alana said. She had forgotten. With being sick for a week and the this crap. she had forgotten her 17th birthday. She could her A Bunch of people laugh so she assumed she was on speaker. Rude!
"Who forgets there Birthday?" She heard a guy say. Maybe around 20years old. How could she tell that? She had no idea.
"Well I just have been dealing with some crap so don't be judging me, Mr Who ever you are!" Alana shouted into the phone. And She could her a bunch of far away laughter. "Ah. Don't mind Paul, he can be A jerk." Jake said. "And what crap?" he asked. Alana Shrugged though she knew that he could not see her. over that phone. "Just some friend stuff. My friends died today. And My other one Hates me so Its Kinda, Blah." she tried to brush it off. But there was a whole in her heart. Knowing it was her fault that her best friend Was dead, Not a good feeling.

"Im sorry." Jake said. Jake Sighed. "So when are you going to come and Visit?" Jake Asked Alana that question every time they talked. "I don't know." Alana said. Then she grunted with pain. And dropped the phone. Bending over hunching over and holding her stomach. A sharp pain ran through her adman all the way up her back and down her legs. She felt like she was giving birth. Though she had No idea what that felt like. "What is wrong with me!!" She Shouted. Stumbling over her words. She could hear the other side of the phone line. Jakes panic for is little sister. "Alana Are you okay? What's going on? What's happening? Embry Call 911!" Alana went to grab the phone but she watched in horror as her hand twist and broke. Snapped like a twig all by its self. She let out a horrible scream. "My hand! It's broken! OH My God!! It hurts so bad! Make it stop! Please! Jake Help me!" Then She heard a Loud Creak and Her ribs broke. She thought she was going to die. It hurt so Bad.

She could still hear the conversation on the other end. A gruff voice "She's Phasing!" A girl "Im not the only girl Sweet!" "Shut Up Leah, You don't think of anyone but your self!" "Embry! What's the hold up!"

"Alana My name is Seth. Listen to me. You will be just fine. I promise. Just listen to my voice and do everything I say. And when the Paramedics Get there Do Not tell them anything you hear got it!" Alana Took a deep breath so se could speak. "Where is Jake?" She asked.
"Jake is talking to the paramedics. Do you understand me. As of this moment you are now apart of something much bigger then you. You must keep it a secret." Alana Muffled a yes as she could now barely speak.

"Okay so I need you to breath and calm down. Take deep breaths." Alana did what she was told. And in a matter of minutes the pain was going away. Her broken bones where mending themselves. "What's happening?" She watched as her broken wrist went twist to straight.
"You are healing yourself. You are stopping the phase." In the distance Alana could hear the Aid car. "Okay. Now This is really important, You need to come home Alana. Now As soon as you can. You need to come." Alana had no Idea what happened. "Okay." She whispered. "And Lie. Whatever you do, Do not tell anyone about this." Then Seth Hung up. And Alana was left there on her kitchen floor.

paramedics burst through the door and started to examine her. But they could not find one thing wrong other then some bruised bones. So they gave her a splint for her wrist, Advised her to see a Doctor and left.

A few hours later Rosa came home with pizza. "Hey I brought pizz- What happened to you?" she said taking note of Alana's Splint. "I feel at school." Alana lied. Rosa Was like a human lie decteor. if she knew Alana was lying she did not let on.

"Um Aunt Rosa.. Can I go to my dad's?" Alana asked. This caught Rosa off guard. before Alana really did not want anything to do with her dad. Other then a few phone calls a month. She was mad at him because in the casusty battle he did nothing to fight for her. he just sat there and did nothing while she was being ripped away from her family. And She used to blame him for her mothers death. because he was with her. Why did she have to die? Would it have been easier if both her mom and dad Died? or just her dad and her mom lived? She thought about this a lot. And she was mad at her aunt for taking her away from her Family. She loved Jake, Rebecca and Rachael. And now she had no idea what Rachael is doing and Rebecca for that matter. The only one that tried to keep any kind of contact with her was Jake.

Aunt Rosa Spit out her Coke. "What?" She asked " You heard me. I want to go home. I want to live with my dad." Alana said. Alana felt different when she said those words. She felt a power she had never felt. And her aunt reacted differently as well. Her eyes glossed over As if she was spelled or something. And she nodded in agreement. "Of course you do. It's only natural that you miss your father." She said. Alana blinked a few times Like she could not believe she just got her aunt to agree with her. That hardly ever happens. "Um okay. Well Im going to need a plane ticket." She said. And again her aunt had glossed over eye and was a spell bound zombie to Alana's words. "Of course you are. I will go prepare that right now, you should pack." Then she stood up and left. leaving Alana there mystified as to what just happened.
