I woke up with blood surrounding me. I could taste it in my mouth. I spit up alot of it, it was probably comming from my ribs.

My arm had been split open. It was a gruesome mess. After i gathered my wits, i remembered that there were medical supplies in the house, only i didnt know if i could get back down there.

I managed to make myself get up. I entered the bathroom, grabbed a needle and thread from the medicine cabinet, and grabbed the rubbing alcohol from the shelf. There were some bandages in Dad's old dresser, so i grabbed those.

Once back in the treehouse, i cleaned the cut. It hurt like Hell. But the stitches were worse. With each stitch, i get more dizzy. I almost passed out. After 7 stitches, i bandaged it up, collapsed on the floor, and cried myself to sleep.

The next morning, i woke up with a sharp pain shooting from my head to my back. My stomach wasn't as purple and my eye stopped throbbing. I noticed my vision was alot clearer. I felt stronger, but damn was i starving!

I grabbed my stuff and easily climbed down the ladder. I went into the woods and found a deer frolicking through the open grass area. I pulled out my knife, a gun would make too much noise. I slowly crept up on it. As soon as it turned to face me, i stabbed it in the back. I must've hit the right nerve, because it just collapsed and couldn't get back up. I pulled out the knife and stabbed in the head.

I dragged it back to the house and skinned it. It wasnt as bad as i thought. I started a fire once i took everything out of it and cut away the meat. There was plenty of wood around and some broken furniture laying around for me to burn. I actually had a decent meal. Well, i kinda ate the entire thing within minutes. It felt good to be full for once.

That night, i slept in the treehouse again. I felt really weird. I couldnt sleep at all. I kept feeling this pain from my head to my back. Suddenly my entire body ached. I screamed in pain. My face felt like it was stretching. I looked at my hands, which were covered in fur.

My hat fell off as i rolled on the floor, screaming. I felt my bones break and grow at the same time, i was completely covered in dark brown fur.

My clothes ripped to shreds. "OH GOD!!!" I screamed, but it sounded more like a snarl. I could no longer stand, only walk on fours. I went to scream again, but what came out was a howl. This couldn't be real... I was a wolf!
