I wake up to Noiz prodding my face in sync with my alarm, great, now i gotta deal with two annoying little shits in the morning. "Okay, I'm up, you can stop being annoying now," i said softly, and hopefully he gets off me before i completely explode.

"Youd better hurry, you dont have very much time."

"What time is it?"

"Seven Fifty-two."

I scrambled up, I am going to be late, no doubt. I ran past Noiz and into my bathroom, skipping the morning shower and going straight to the toothbrush and hairbrush. "Why didnt you wake me up earlier?"

"You brought an entire person to life, you should probably sleep, or you'll crash. Its just one class, you'll be fine."

I looked at him, he had a point, there was no way i could do anything today. I was tired and tonight was a full moon, i wouldnt want to be late to see the hunt..werewolf watching was always fun. I nodded at Noiz and climbed right back to bed sinking back and opening the book on my nightstand and flipping throuhj the pages, "so whats it like?"

"Whats what like?" Noiz responded, his sharp features outlined by the dim light of the closed curtains, "being dead?"

"Well...yeah." i said softly, now feeling guilty i asked in the first place, "sorry if its touchy..i just wanted to know.."

"Well i don't really care..i mean it just feels empty. I cant really describe absolutely nothing. Its just...nothing," he seemed like he wanted to find more to say, but i understand where he's coming from. It would be hard to describe nothing too.

"Well, its still totally strange to think that you're alive but not alive..how will you cover that up?" I asked, if people knew there was such a strong ghost I'm pretty sure they'd know there was a necromancer at the school.

"Don't worry about me, I will just have to take even more energy to make myself solid and play it off as a Zombie.." he sighed, laying back on the floor his scuffed knees the only thing poking up from the side of the bed. "Besides, no one is gonna notice me walking around anyway."

It was a good way into the night before the hunt began. I wanted to climb up to the roof but, like always, i want to join in on the fun as well. It couldn't hurt to take a walk, as long as I dont run i should be fine right?

I took my hood and walked down, i just want to see a werewolf up close, even if its a small one. Do you know how cool that'd be?

Everything was so quiet, maybe no one will come out today. I kept my arms around my body to try and keep warm, look at me, a shivering mess. I chuckled to myself, "what if im being hunted right now, and im just stupid prey that doesnt know it yet."

I heard breathing, Shit, was i right? I made my way back towards my dorm, trying to stay as calm as possible so i dont get chased by a werewolf student who wont even remember what happened to the strange human kid that showed up a couple months ago.

I ran up the stairs after I was sure it was safe. The door slamming behind me. I look forward once more, but Noiz was hunched over so his terrifying eyes were locked on me.

"You almost died. What did I tell you?" He said without a hint of emotion in his voice, i dont know if he was worried about himself or me but either way i need to be more careful.

"Sorry. I was just going for a walk." I said quickly and he stood up again, "look, want to join me on the roof? We can watch The Hunt."

He nodded, and that relieved the pressure in my chest, "Alright, lets go onto the roof then hmm?"

Halfway through the 'show' I noticed a fairly small werewolf sitting on a rock on the far side of campus. "Do you know him?" I asked Noiz but i didn't expect any more than a name.

"No..he looks familiar but i cant place my finger on i- where are you going?"

I slid down the roof and back to my window, "I'm going to go meet him"

"M are you crazy?!" I heard him yell out, and i didn't have a doubt that he was following me. But i walked on, my mind set on where i saw the werewolf. I reached the rock he was on, but, he wasnt there. Where could he have gone?

The second i looked to the left i saw a mass coming right towards me, claws outstretched and mouth open at my throat. I put my hand in front of my face.
