The Demons Tale

The Start of the Journey

I teleport to where Steph and Bear have moved to. When I get there Bear and Steph stand up and Bear runs over to me and hugs me tight, "I thought you were dead!"

I hug Bear back, "I'm here now aren't I?"

As I say that Bear lets go and tears are in her eyes, "Please don't do that to me again. Promise me you won't do that to me again. You are my brother and I cant lose you."

"I promise Bear. I won't do that again."

Steph then gets up and walks over to me. We stand there for only a few seconds before she smacks me across the face, "You should have let us stay to help! It was a two on one! You could have been killed!"

I rub my face, "And I wasn't and remember I can heal myself. They learned that the hard way."

"Why didn't you let us stay?"

"I didn't want either of you to get hurt."

Tears come to Steph's eyes and she hugs me tighter than Bear did, "Please don't do that again."

I hold back tears in my own eyes, "I won't." I obviously knew I didn't mean it. I can't have either of them get hurt because of my stupid actions. I can't lose either of them. Especially Bear, she's my sister and I really can't have her die because she is the last person alive that is of my own blood.

Steph and I stop hugging and the three of us stand there in silence. Steph studies me like she knows that something is wrong or that I'm keeping something from them. Bear still has tears in her eyes but she is trying to stop them from running down her face. Bear turns to me, "Where are we going to go now?"

Bear had a good point. The house was destroyed and I can't tell them I am being hunted. I don't know what we are going to do. My thoughts were cut out by a shrill shriek from Bear as four wolves enter the clearing. The one small pup looks at me with a lot of confusion like she has never seen a human male before. Steph walks over to the pup and starts to talk to it, "Nyx we told you that it would be best if you stayed at the den with your father."

As Steph says that the female wolf standing next to the wolf pup by the name of Nyx does a light whimper and a whispery female voice enters my head, "Her father is missing and we need your friend over there to help us."

I look at the wolf in confusion, "How can I hear you?"

The she-wolf looks over at me an approaches me, "You can hear me? How?."

"That's what I am asking you."

Steph chimes in, "Bumble this is Damion. Bears brother."

The she-wolf by the name of Bumble stares at Steph in confusion, "Bear has no family she said."

Bear looks at the ground and Steph continues, "She didn't know that he was her brother until just a few days ago. A lot has happened in a few days."

"Wait, why are you here and not at your cottage?" Bumble realizes obviously confused.

I start to explain, "My brothers attacked. I had Steph teleport Bear to this clearing. I couldn't have either of them get hurt by either one of them."

The wolf pup Nyx walks over to me and sniffs my shoe, "You have a strange smell for a wolf. And you are a strange looking wolf at that."

I laugh a little, "I'm not a wolf young one."

The small pup stumbles backwards, "You can hear me?! And your not a wolf?! What?!"

Bumble pads over and looks at me, "Nyx here is only a few weeks old. She is new to all of this."

"And yet she knows bear?"
