Ariel:

We get seated and begin to eat. Tonight we have steak, which is my favorite. Everyone is talking and enjoying themselves. We have been living here for many generations now, it keeps us safe. The hunters are still after us though, some of them think we are still out here. They want us for the many amazing things we can do. The Fated have the ability to communicate to each other via mind link, just like any other species of shifter can with another of their kind. For us it's different though. We can mind link with any type of shifter, in our group or not. We can speak to animals as well. That along with the shifting into anything, makes us very, very valuable.

Other than wanting us out of the picture, I don't understand why they would want us this bad. The only other thing that happens with us is when we shift into our true forms. When a Fated is ready, they will shift into their true form. Changing to the true form is very painful, and it takes a really long time. Their main spirit grows stronger, and gains a power. They won't know the power until they shift, but it's worth it. When they shift, the appearance of the spirit changes as well. It may look the same, it may be completely different. I hope that mine is different, I'm getting tired of the plain white color.

My little sisters kitten is a little ocelot with blue eyes. Her name is Saige, and she is adorable! I can't wait to see what her true form looks like. She is only eight right now though, so I don't think that will be anytime soon.

We finish eating and the adults of the pride go into the meeting room. Every night they get together to go over what is happening in the outside world. We want to remain safe and hidden in our little hide away, and the only way to do that is to keep up with everything. They don't want to risk anything. All of the pride kids are taught everything they need to survive in a class taught by the pride teachers and warriors. They keep all of the information to themselves, they don't want to have any of the kids getting bad ideas such as leaving.

Finley and I head up to our bedrooms, tired from being outside playing all day. This time after dinner is normally used for the kids, so that they can hang out and have some time to see friends. I normally go with my friends to the game room or movie room, but tonight I just want to sleep. I open the door to my room, and turn on the light. Grabbing my pajamas off of my dresser, I quickly change and sit down on my bed. Not a second after I sit, the thoughts come flooding through my head.

It feels like everything around here is completely controlled. When you eat, when you sleep, when you do anything. I really just want to be able to make my own decisions and live how I want to. I hate having to hide from the world, scared to even leave the house. It doesn't have to be like that, but they won't understand. We've been hiding for many generations, it's all anyone knows.

Sighing, I lay down pulling my blankets up over me. As soon as my head hit the pillow, the first thing I saw in my head before I fell asleep was a large black wolf. That was when I knew.

Things wouldn't be like this much longer.
