Into The Woods

Scaredy Cat

Amelia backed up, "You look like the," she cut herself off, "where am I?" She shook her head, "No, no. Who are /you/?"

   He put his foot down onto the floor, "You should already know that."

  She held up his pitch black shirt with a white skull on it, and revealed a knife wound.

   Amelia plunged her hand into her pocket, and searched for her knife. She stiffened as he pulled it out of his pocket, "Looking for this?" he asked with a smirk.

   Amelia stammered back into her room. She fell down onto the warm bed, "You're, you're it? You're him? You're the wolf?"

   The boy laughed, "Isn't it obvious?" he walked into her room, "Sorry about that," he walked over and looked down at her as she sat on the bed, "about your stomach."

   Amelia realized he bit her, "Oh, well, I was about to stab you..."

   The boy grinned, "You're taking this quite well human."

    Amelia stood up and rubbed her hands together, as she was getting colder, "This dream is just long and vivid, it'll be over soon."

   The boy laughed, "This wouldn't be a dream, more like a nightmare. For me anyways."

   Amelia shrugged, "This isn't real. Those are contacts, and this isn't real."

   The boy walked forward, "I wouldn't bet on it." he said and soon his blood red eyes flickered.

   Amelia stepped back, "What's wrong with your eyes?" He smirked, "They do that whenever I start to turn."

  Amelia repeated to him, "/turn/?"

   He nodded, "My wolf wants to meet the girl who stabbed me."

  Amelia waved her hands, and her eyes widened, "Please don't. Please!"

   He paused, "Scaredy cat. Do you know what wolves to do cats?" he inched forward and was staring into her eyes.

   She shivered. Although she quickly looked over as a man spoke, "Blade," the voice wasn't as dark and creepy as the red eyes wolf man, but it was more commanding.

   Amelia looked to the red eyed guy and he stepped back. Amelia gathered his name was Blade.

   The new guy stepped forward. His brown hair was short, and he had stubble growing. He also had red eyes.

  Amelia stumbled back, "You two kidnapped me." It finally dawned on her, "I'll call the cops! This is holding me against my will!"

   The new guy stepped forward into the light of the dim lamp.

   He frowned, "Don't." he warned. She shook with fear, "Let me leave!"

    He nodded, and Blade interjected, "You're kidding?"

    The new guy looked over to Blade and Blade looked to the floor.

  The new guy looked to Amelia, "But first follow me."

   Amelia nodded and followed the new guy down many halls.

   The man introduced himself, "I'm Alpha Darren."

   Amelia almost jogged just to stay in pace with him walking, "Alpha?" she asked.

   Darren looked back, "Yes Alpha. Don't you know anything about wolves?"

   Amelia shrugged, "Alpha is the leader, right?" Darren nodded, "Correct. I'm the leader of this pack."

Amelia stopped, "There's an entire pack?" Darren placed his hand on her back and ushered her forward. As he did so he answered her, "Yes. We're pack animals, we aren't solitary."

   Amelia shook her head, "I want to go home, now!" Darren pushed her inside a large office. Book shelves lined the walls, with books in each slot.

   One large desk was in the middle. He sat behind the desk and offered Amelia the chair in front of her.

  Amelia sat down in a chair, "Thanks.." she said warily.

  Darren responded to her uneasiness, "Now, you won't tell a soul about this, right?"

   Amelia nodded quickly, "No, now can I go?"

   Darren chuckled at her impatient nature, "Not yet Miss-"

   Amelia finished his sentence, "Amelia."

   Darren nodded, "You're free to go." Amelia folded her arms, "That's it? My name is all you wanted?"

  Darren growled like a wolf, as it rumbled through his chest, "Leave."

  Amelia took no time and darted out, but was met by Blade's dead gaze.

  She froze suddenly. The door slammed behind her and she jumped.

   Blade smirked, "Scaredy cat." Amelia frowned, "You're, uh, alpha said I was free to go."

   Blade grinned, "I'm so glad you were easy to track. You can't fight for-"

   She cut him off, "Track me?" Blade rolled his eyes, and then paused, "He hasn't told you?"

   Amelia just stared, and Blade chuckled, "Daddy has some secrets," and he got almost a inch away from Amelia, "and it runs in the genes."

  Amelia pushed him away. Her hands slammed into his chest and he stumbled back.

  Blade was a bit shocked by her movement, he started forward but instead of hurting her he smiled, "Scaredy cat has some claws."
