:Isabella:

Where the hell was Orchid? I continued walking around the wooden cabin on a search for my redhead friend. I needed to know what the she suspected the creature to be for I could go and finish it off. School started in almost a week and six days. I needed to get this thing killed before school starts so I don't have to be constantly looking behind my back.

I already do that but this thing seems almost invincible. I need to know I don't need to carry a machine gun or rocket launcher with me at all times. I personally thought we should evacuate this place and bomb it. But no! Dalton can't bare to have that happening to this town and have it explode. Wimp. I enjoyed having things explode while I lay in the wake, but Dalton says that I need to give that pyro part of me up or I could end up hurting someone. I understood the part of not wanting to hurt someone.

'Isabella, you do tend to go a little crazy when fighting. But you've gotten better at reeling in your inner demon.' 'What is my inner demon like a werewolves wolf?' 'No your inner demon is me.' I rolled my eyes at Satan as I began wandering around the wooden cabin in search for my redhead witch friend. I swear she is a master at hiding. 'She did hide all the time in Roanoke.' Orchid was part of the lost colony, she says she doesn't remember much of it. Orchid got frozen in time and released around 1990s and grew up in a foreign world. She still looks at cellular devices in mystery to this day despite being a witch.

My friend was centuries old but technically since she was frozen in time maybe in her late twenties to early thirties. Witches didn't age, witches also rarely had children to keep their race from overpopulating, maybe a couple witches had children but if it was, it was usually with a human. That was were all the half bloods came in, a few were immortal, most took longer to age while some aged like a normal human but with magikal benefits. Orchid was a pureblood witch who belonged to the big cat coven. The coven matched her name a lot, Orchid Panther. When I first met Orchid I was calling her Orchard for the longest of times no matter what anyone told me. Once in a while I called her Orchard now, which reminded me of the old times when I was young.

I stopped in front of Andrew's door and thought about if Orchid was in there. I thought about knocking but didn't and just opened the door. When I saw the sight I regretted it. Orchid sat on the bed shirtless while kissing a shirtless Andrew. When she saw me she screamed and dove for the covers to cover her chest. Andrew looked at me began reaching for his discarded shirt to cover Orchid up. "Isabella, what brings you here?" Orchid asked her face flushed red as she slipped on Andrew's shirt. "You said you had information on the creature and I'm here for you to tell me. Are you too busy? Should I come back later?" I asked a quirky smirk making it's way to my face as I stared down the scarlet red faced girl. "No right now is fine. Andrew we can finish this later." Orchid said pressing a kiss to the boys cheek. Andrew nodded before stroking her hair and walking out.

"If you find this monster, do me a favor. Make it's death slow and painful and record it if you can." Andrew said as he looked at me. "Will do." I said saluting him. Andrew cracked a smile. "We better have classes together, I have so many pranks in mind." Andrew said as he left with a wink at Orchid. Andrew shut the door on his way out and I turned my attention to Orchid. "Ok I have an entire section in my recording history on them, when we kill this you can write all about it in your journal." Orchid said as she got out of the bed and handed me this small notebook. Orchid recorded creatures in here over time for her coven.

"So does it have anything on how we can kill it?" I asked as I began skimming through her journal for the marked pages. "No but that's what the internet is for." Orchid said as she pushed me to the page of the monster. I read the name of the creature. Wendigo.

The wendigo is a creature that comes from Algonquian folklore. They were once human. Tales go of campers or tribes that got caught in a storm and starved. One of the people would turn and eat them. A spirit known as the wendigo will take place in the body and the change of the wendigo will begin. First it starts with the eyes, they turn into white milky soulless eyes. Their mouth begins to rot away showing razor sharp teeth. They will grown in size and their skin turns grey and stretches over their bones. Any tattoos or scars remain. In the end of the transformation the soul takes over and they succumb to the never ending hunger hence their anorexic appearance. Wendigo are afraid of fire. A wendigo is never satisfied they are always scavenging for their next meal. Wendigo is sometimes capable of bargaining deals. They can mimic people they have heard to lure in prey.

After that I stopped reading. This fucking thing was once human. It eats people. I hate cannibals, I'm terrified of cannibals. They say to conquer your fear is to become your fear, that meant me becoming a cannibal which would never happen. I was terrified of cannibals for the longest time. Did this first person know my fear and bargain with it to try to kill me. I'll shove aside my weakness to show the First who they are messing with. No mutated creature-human thing was gonna kill people when I was around.

"I believe I know how to kill this thing." I said remembering my supernatural and game fazes. "How?" Orchid asked lighting up at the thought of killing the thing that has taunted us while we were here.

Since I got to Whispering-Waters this wendigo has done nothing but taunt me and make me run in circles. It thought I was just gonna succumb and give up and wait for the ultimate hand of death. I knew Death, I'm not ready to see him hanging around me, I am not going to die just yet. I was gonna send this fucker back to the First dead and show these demons who they are messing with next time they wanna fuck around with me. I am done being the nice Isabella who tries to wait things out. Tonight I'm gonna become something ugly, just for this night to kill it. I'm gonna come knocking on this guys house. I'm gonna give it, it's own piece of medicine.

"In the game Until Dawn there is a multiple wendigo in there. You can behead them to kill them. In Supernatural you burn them, also in Until Dawn." I said as I clenched my fists. "We bringing out machetes to behead this thing. "Maybe. But get anything that can start fires." I said as I dropped her journal on Andrew's dresser. Orchid nodded as she got up. I was gonna burn this wendigo alive.


1255. HELLO! The monster has been revealed. How many of you suspected it to be a wendigo. I had this idea the entire time. I was watching Until Dawn when I got this idea. But who sent the wendigo to Isabella, who is betraying Isabella. To clear minds it is not Victor or Dalton's family. Is the first someone Isabella knows? So many questions to be answered throughout this story. Now that you know the creature write guys. Hashtag your pieces #SBMonster or #SBComp. No one has entered and I need pieces or I'll have to write it. So please! Until next time my wendigo marshmallows.
