My Mirror

Chapter 3

Walking over to Silvia I smile. She does the eye wiggle dance and laughs. "I see the hottest of the royalty was talking to you."

"Yes, he was and yes, he was trying to get us together. No we aren't. I'm not ready."

"Fine lets go home it's getting dark and maybe you can get some sleep in my house. Even if its full of snakes I know you feel better sleeping there. No arguments." Rolling my eyes I nod my head okay. Then we get into her beautiful 68 mustang. It was a dusk purple with lightning blue pin stripes. I love this car, but, it's not mine, and I don't have to money to get one.

As we get to her house I see her little brother run out just as the sun disappeared over the hill, yelling for his sister."Holen Sie sich aus dem Weg, du Idiot! Seine dunkle, und Sie sind in der Mitte der Straße!" She screamed at him. I looked at her shocked. "Well he was in the middle of the street."

"Halts Maul du Schlampe. Mutter wünscht Sie helfen, aufräumen Abendessen Gerichte!" Anthony yelled at his sister.

"Little Whelp just called me a bitch! Come on lets get the dishes done and then you a drink. Then, to bed."

"Works for me my sweet." Smiling I go in the house and help with dishes. I say hi to all of her brothers and sisters. We eat, then head up to her spare room. Of which in truth, is my room away from home. Silvia's family loves me and understands that it is hard for me to get comfortable with other people. Even my own family. We talk for a while and enjoy discussing what is going on in class. Whose nice and whose not, cool teachers and pain in the ass freshmen.

An hour latter I'm getting dressed for bed. Pulling my hair down I brush it out. It falls in soft waves down my back. With My makeup gone, I look like a young girl much too tired for her age. Turning out the light, I go and lay down in bed. My purple silk pajamas floating down onto my body. Lightly touching my skin. I drift off into sleep listening to music on the radio.

-Running. Just keep running they can't catch you now. Run. Pain, throbbing all over my body. My paws softly padding on the pine needled ground. More pain, please not yet don't let them see me yet. I start to climb up, hands and feet, scrambling up a tree. The rough bark scratching my skin. More pain, jumping I land in a window seal. Scrambling more pain, so much pain. Quick shut the window. So much pain.-

I woke up on the floor again. It was around one in the morning and yet again, I was naked, covered in dirt and twigs. I start to stand up but there is a sharp pain in my right leg. "Shit!" Swearing I fall back to the floor tears in my eyes. Crawling to the night stand I pull myself up and turn on a light. Looking down at my leg I see what is wrong. I have a deep cut going across my calf an apparently, I reopened the wound. Reaching over I grab my phone and call Silvia. Even though she's right across the hall, I can't get to her. I'm not dressed, I'm bleeding, and I can't walk plus, my leg needs stitches and I don't like doctors. Too many needles.

She's picks up after the third ring. "Ill be there in a minute. I'm grabbing the first aid kit and Grandma." Then as she hung up I heard her shuffle quickly down the hall to get her grandmother. Who, when it comes to stitches and medical treatment, is as good as a doctor.

Grandma came in and looked at me with sad eyes. "Meine Baby-Mädchen, I've never seen this bad of a transformation from you. Do you remember anything?" I struggled to understand her from lack of sleep and her accent didn't help either.

"No." I said solemnly. "I never remember anything now a days. " Looking at me she shakes her head. No one had ever heard of a shifter having this much trouble with the transformation. Then again not many shifter baby's where dropped off at human houses just cus. She cleaned my leg and stitched me up then spit some of her venom on it to make sure it healed cleanly with no infection. Snakes bites can be deadly but, mixed with their saliva, it doesn't kill animal/humans. Just bacteria. After all of this is done she let me sleep.

I woke up and scurried to get changed. With all the adrenalin pumping. I had completely forgotten about my leg. After I pause to remember what day it is I feel something slide down my leg. Looking down I see blood slithering down my leg. Sighing I go and find the gauze. Cleaning and wrapping my leg I notice that my stitches haven't popped. Just my scab opened.

Silvia comes in and shakes her head. "You aren't going to school today. Not with that cut." Glaring I sigh and grab my backpack.

"I'm just going to ask Grandma for some more venom. I'll be okay, I just can't jerk around."

"Fine but if the stitches pop we are going home ASAP. Your lucky you just barely missed the main artery."

"Deal."

I go to Grandmas room and she unwraps my leg spits her venom then re-wraps it in a new bandage. Sighing pleasantly I go downstairs to find that Silvia had made me breakfast, again. I inhale the bacon, eggs, and toast. Then meet her in the car. School was a bore though Ashley hit on me more than normal.

After all this I go home. With Silvia and spend the night.
