The Way It Should Be

Chapter Twenty-Six

Everything was set, the Wolf-Man went on as per usual.

Then went all the other acts.

After my act I didn't watch the acts after. Evra couldn't preform since he had to take care of his snake, so I had no reason to watch.

I decided to check on the Wolf-Man. I got a pork chop for him and then went to his cage.

"Hey, buddy, I got a sna-" I stop when I see his cage is completely empty.

My eyes widen and look around frantically - I find a small trail blood and some large foot prints. I spot one of the workers walking by, she didn't notice the empty cage.

I stopped her, she gave me a confused look and I pointed to the cage, "Please tell the others, I'm gonna go look for him!"

She drops all the equipment she was holding and hurrily makes her way to the large tent where the show was being held.

I whistle for my wolves, but they never come- wait... No Scar comes running over. He is growling heavily and before I could tell him to do anything he runs off. I quickly chase after him.

"There is no time for this Scar we need to get to the Wolf-Ma-!"

I see what he was bringing me to, the old train station - of course!

I look around, in desperate need of finding the Wolf-Man. I finally find him, running around some train cars desperate for something... Maybe its a scared racoon.

I whistle to get his attention, he looks over to me with his snarling teeth and drool covered mouth. He growls then looks back at the train cars. I look at Scar - who was now holding something in his mouth... Nona.

I pick her up and see she was bleeding slightly, but it wasn't deadly...

I smile at her and place her on top of Scar's back, "Just a minute and I swear I'll bring you back to the-" I see Pen walk up from behind a tree and she is red with blood. Whimpering she drops to the ground. This must be what the Wolf-Man did to her!

I want to kill the Wolf-Man right now, but my wolves are my top priority right now, besides he's only chasing a raccoon.

I quickly lead the wolves to the Cirque.

What a mistake I've made... Leaving my wolves with Truska to take care of I quickly make my way back to the Wolf-Man.

I saw the Wolf-Man now chasing a little boy... Blonde, short, thin. I see a brunette not far from him, laying down, seconds from being unconscious.

I am shocked, to see the sight in front of me. It wasn't a raccoon at all!

The brunette sees me and he glares at me Angrily, Darren.

The blonde - Sam - spots me and gives me a pleading look, but I was too late to save him as I saw the Wolf-Man grab him and bite into his side with blood gushing from his side into the beats mouth.

I stop running and vomit, I vomit up any intestine I have in me.

When I am finally done puking I look up and see he is making his way over to Darren.

I was getting ready to run over there and help, but I was too weak from being sick.

I blurring see an orange haired man flip the creature over his shoulder and save the brunette before I sit down on the grass to regain my strength.

After a minute or two I am fine and stand up again. I walk over to the blonde and it breaks my heart to see the now mangled boy on the ground. Tears prick my eyes as I see the not dead yet boy.
