Lyan's POB-

Owww..... my back....my head...

My eyes flutter open, and the first thing I feel is the sensation of melting skin across my nose. When my eyes adjust to the light, I realize this heat is radiating off the lava-speckled eyes hovering just above my own, worriedly studying me. No, can't be...

So, of course my animal instincts kick in, and I kick him in the stomach, sitting up and getting into a defensive position while he groans in pain.

"What was THAT for?.." he groans, peering up at me.

"Are you a scientist from a government or any other related organization?" I ask as forcefully as possible, trying to keep the fear from my voice.

"What the Nether, no, I'm not, why would I be? You should probably lay back down, you've been out for a while now-

"Wait, what? Was I unconscious? For how long?" I reach to the place on my belt where my daggers are supposed to be. "And where are my knives!!??!?" I start screaming hysterically and patting my boots, sleeves, my ponytail, anywhere I could think of. Then my sister walks in and hands me my jade-encrusted daggers, making me feel a bit more secure.

"Why are you yelling at Preston?" is the first thing she asks.

"Actually, never mind, I've got to tell you something." Hazelnut sits on the floor, knowing I preferred the comfort of being earth-bound, and motioned for the lava hybrid to do the same. For an 11-year-old girl in love with dolls, she sure sounds serious, I think.

"The reason you were unconscious is that you were under the stress of having a medical needle stuck into your arm. You have been asleep for three days. You worried everyone." My jaw slacks open to speak, but she gives me a look that says don't interrupt.

"In that time I have been able to talk to the crew and learn more about this place. Ten boys live here alone, ranging between the ages of thirteen and twenty, and they have been surviving here for the past five years. Seto calls this a severed land, as you can only come, you MUST come, when called, and you cannot leave of your own accord. Every six months, new "People" would come by boat or plane and be transported to a clearing a few miles from here with the wreckage of their vehicle."

My eyes probably had a look of understanding, as she says,

"You know the rest."

Yes, I do know. If we had stayed with the ruined aircraft we would have magically disappeared with the jet and been found. Oh, wait, before I start looking like a jerk...

"Hey Preston, is it? I'm sorry, I just didn't recognize you. But for future reference, try to not get in my face when I'm asleep, 'cause I'm not usually a very good person when I wake up." He smiles, nodding to show he accepts the apology.

"Okay, down to business. If I remember correctly, there are two hybrids and a sorcerer living here?"

Another boy, may fifteen of sixteen, walks into the room. He seemed pretty scared and nervous to me, but no one else seemed to notice anything under his mask of confidence. I look at the one maroon eye not covered by his long bangs more carefully. If I remember correctly, his name is Ty.

"Yes, at least, that we know of," in answering my question, he sits on the bed, looking down at us, waiting for conversation.

Hazelnut signals the end of the seriousness by squealing, "Seto already said he would train me, Lyan!"

I am trying to smile, I really am, but my instincts are screaming at me that this that a TERRIBLE idea. "That's great, Hazel!" I turn to the dude on the bed. He seemed to have authority here.

"Ty, is it okay if I go hunting?" He nods. I actually smile this time and rush off, happy to be able to hunt by myself for the first time in a while.

(A/N Almost ended it here, but I was like, no, I've been gone for to long, I can make this filler longer! :P)

Adam's POB-

I see a light grey wolf gallop through the front gates from the watchtower. Wondering why it was here and where it is going, I yell to the fish to take watch duty, and I dive into the water below with Quinten screaming that he was a amphibian behind me. Laughing, I start racing after the large canine.

After tracking it for at least a half hour, the wolf stops. I quickly duck behind a giant spruce trunk. Peeking around the wood, I notice that it's....staring at something, seemingly almost entranced by what it is studying. I creep a little closer, and identify the "something" as raw emerald ore. Why is the wolf staring at emeralds as if they were Budder? I decide to do one of the stupidest things I've ever done and interrupted the silence, revealing my whereabouts.

"Why are you staring at those emeralds?" It turns, fur bristling, and morphs into that girl I tackled at the base earlier. Oh, crud.

"Why are you still here and what did you just call the slimy rocks?" Uh, what? Slimy rocks? What are- oh, wait, emeralds, slimy rocks, I get it.

"I meant, why were you staring at the slimy rocks. And how did you know I was here?" The girl's eyes take on a softer appearence. Oh, Notch, close call. 

"Why wouldn't I? They're so beautiful..." She coughs and the determined look comes back. She obviously avoiding my question.

"I should get back to hunting." She just races off. She is a really strange hybrid. Oh well. And with that, I start trotting off towards the base, hoping that Quinten won't start yelling at me.

A/N Heyyyyy Packmates. I, uh, I'm sorry for not updating. *lame excuse here* So, yeah, that's why.

REMINDER

I'm still holding the OC contest. Rules and stuff are in Chapter Tres!

Sorry for the filler chapter. But it is (kind of) important.

(EDIT: I didn't originally like how this turned out, so I did some midnight proof-reading, and I think this is much better. To anyone reading this for the first time, THIS EDIT NEVER EXSISTED, WHOOOOOOHH.)

Wishing my Mates a good moon!
