HYBRID

CHAPTER 10- Busted

Jake groaned as he moved.

Three days and he was still as sore as ever.

The first day he had been completely bedridden and even flinching would cause pain to erupt and engulf his body. Second day was pretty much the same thing. Today, he had made the effort to get out of bed, because it was boring.

He had been wandering around the pack house- exploring and avoiding bumping into people on the busy hallways. It was evening rush.

Kyle must have brought him here when he was unconscious. Jake opened a window. The forest looked appealing with the scent of leaves and fresh air wafting in the air. Maybe he'd go there instead.

Most of the pack house was surrounded by woods anyway. He had propped one leg up on the sill, ready to jump out, when he was tackled.Jake was flat on his back and felt a weight on his stomach and chest. The boy groaned and looked up into a pair of green eyes.

"Hi ya," the child sitting on him waved.

"Since when did you get so heavy?" Jake grunted.

The child pouted. "I'm not,"

"You're just feeling our total weight," another blonde head popped up leaning to the right.

They were both identical. Rounded, cute, innocent little faces, sparkling emerald eyes and high dimpled cheeks.
Danny and Patty. They were identical twins and part of the pack. They were sneaky and cunning- so usual nine year olds. "Would you please, get off me?" Jake gasped. "You're fat little butts are stopping my air flow,"

The twins gasped. "Meanie!" but obeyed.

"Why'd you two jump me?" He asked, sitting up.

"I don't know, I wanted to hug a fellow hybrid," one says wrapping her arms around him.

Jake lifted an eyebrow. The twins were half-werewolf and half-witch, so they were in a way. Rather they were really cross breeds between two different species. Hybrid was exclusive to someone who was part vampire, part werewolf. Someone produced from a werewolf and vampire.The twins pinned him down while he was distracted, deep in his own thoughts.

"What now?" Jake asked as they looked down at him.

"You're stupid," one said.

"Impulsive," the other twin joined in.

"Irresponsible- rude-"

"And a JERK!"

"Geez, thanks for the compliments," Jake said sarcasm rolling off him. "Now please get off!"

For some reason, he couldn't move. It was like a heavy weight was pressing down on him.

"However," the twins spoke in unison. "You are also kind and generous and helpful. Never let those qualities go. Remember this well. Many will try to use you and the darkness will come. Don't let it consume you. Follow you're own path and never loose track of yourself. Your journey will be horrendous, painful and may tear you apart,"

"Ok," Jake looked at them.
What the heck were they going on about? Why was everyone starting to sound like Luca?
And who were they calling stupid?

Danny and Patty let go of him.

"Alpha wants to see you," they spoke together again.

"Uh huh," Patty nodded.

Without warning, Jake lashed out grabbing the other one, tickling them mercilessly. The child laughed and screamed, squirming to escape.

Patty watched, mock horror written on the cute little face.
