New Guardian

Wolves

By nightfall dinner had been served and Jack told everyone how my 'connected believer' was Kyle Hillston, from the Evergreen Village. He also said how I protected him from the teenagers by turning wolf officially. "That's guardian material" North praises. I stare at my plate and freeze my dinner, "Em? You haven't said a word since we got back from the village" Jack said gently. I inhaled and exhaled sadly and looked up at Jack, "Kyles last name was Hillston too" I spluttered sadly. "Y-you mean, your Kyle is related to the 200 years ago Kyle?!' Bunnymund jumped up. "Yep" I said. "Well this is more interesting than Home and Away!" North chuckled. "Very Funny" I rolled my eyes, my spirits lifting. Jack felt my hand. "Em! You're warm?" Jack said. My eyes widened and I felt my hands and looked in the mirror. My vanes were showing through my skin again, "Oh no!" I whispered. "What's going on?!" Tooth asked as she flew in from getting desserts. "I'm turning wolf" I announced. "What's the month?!" I asked. "Full Moon" Bunnymund said confused. "FULL MOON, I'm a Wolfblood!" I cried and pain started rushing through me. "You know what to do Em?" Jack asked worriedly. "Get into the forest" I said, vanes showing in my neck and hands now and my eyes Autumn Gold. "I'll help her" Bunnymund said, he rushed outside with me and within five minutes the pain was gone, but I was in wolf form (in previous chapter there is a picture). "Em?" Bunnymund said. I knew who he was but all I did was howl then run off into the night.

I didn't know where in the world I was going, but all I knew was that I could follow a scent and find a nearby pack. My paw prints trailed behind me as I hurriedly ran off through the forest, weaving between the tall pine trees. To be honest, I was seriously scared! My eyes darted from left to right, to in front of me as I sped. Soon enough I picked up as scent coming from the South. I cautiously followed the scent and I got to a clearing where the moon light lit up the whole area and made it very welcoming. I sniffed my way into the territory, no wolves? Maybe they're out hunting. Suddenly I hear growling. I stand corrected, I'm being watched...I swear I saw some gross yellow eyes watching me, I growled instinctively when feeling threatened. "I'll see you soon Emma" a voice echoed through the wind. A cackling laughed ended that awful moment then wolves appeared through the darkness. They didn't seem threathening, so I instantly knew it wasn't them with that message from whoever! Three girl wolves came up to me and knew who I was. Apparently Man in Moon told them they would be expecting me this Full Moon! They also told me that I didn't need a howling partner until I was a full pack member for a few years. The pack leader approached me and welcomed me humbly and kindly. He was a wise wolf, a grey and white coat and bright sparkling Autumn Gold eyes, he told me that I was welcome for the night and anytime I needed to turn wolf. I actually enjoyed that night really well, those three female wolves are my best friends and showed me around the pack until I was known throughout the territory.

When morning came I awoke in 'guardian' form, thanked the pack and promised I'd see them soon and flew back to Norths cottage. When I landed I hadn't realised how tired I was and unbalanced I was, I staggered uneasily through the door almost knocking Bunnymund clean out. "Easy there Wolfblood" Bunnymund laughed catching me. "Sorry, real dizzy" I apologised putting a hand to my head and shaking it to remove the dizziness which not surprisingly didn't go away. "You'll get used to it" Bunnymund said, keeping a hold of my arm invade I topple over which there is a good chance of that happening. "I don't know how!" I exclaimed. "Ill help you since in already supposed to watch over you" Bunnymund piped in. "Thanks EB" I smiled, "I think ill crash in my room until I get all balance back" I said and flew slowly towards my room, "Ok, I'll help you practise tomorrow!" Bunnymund waved and I flew into my room and collapsed onto me floor and a frost ball formed around me and I slept like a hasn't slept for 200 years. Once again that makes me sound OLD!
