The Savior Luna

Chapter 6

I look around and see that everyone is asleep and we are only 10  minutes into the movie. I roll my eyes and pause the movie while Moana's dad explains to her that she's the future of their village. 

"Hey I was watching that" I turn around and see a young girl from my pack staring wide-eyed at the T.V. 

"Oops my bad," I say back to her.  I play the movie then get up to go find Emily.  

I go upstairs and find no one there except for a couple of guards. What time is it? I think, I check my phone and see that it is 1:13 am. I immediately check the date and freeze "Holy shit I'm 18" I say to myself, "Ahhh" I scream and start jumping up and down but I stop when 3 guards run to me looking ready to attack.

"Hey guys" I say, giving them a sheepish wave. 

"We thought you were in danger, princess" I cringe at the old nickname.

"Gerald I told you to stop calling me that, and no I'm not in danger I'm just excited," I say. 

"Oh is there something special going on?" he asks, I look at him with a smirk. 

"Yup very special," I say then walk away from them. When I get to the Alpha floor I see that everyone's door is closed and all the lights are off. I sigh in disappointment then go to my room 

"Happy Birthday Ariel" I say to myself, then drift off to sleep.

"The time has come," says someone in a creepy old witch voice "Yes the time has come my dear and with you two in my possession, there is nothing I won't be able to do," she says with a cackle. "Go on and spread evil into the world my precious little spawns." With that I start running with black, white, and red walls spinning around me and sounds of pain and horror everywhere. I stop running in front of a large figure "Now finish the job, darling"  says the same witch voice from before as she hands me a sharp sword. I point the dagger to the person's throat but hesitate "Who is it?" I ask the witch voice "It doesn't matter, just do it. Do it!" she yells. "No, tell me who it is first! Who is it?! Who is it?!"  

"Ariel!"  says a familiar voice. I open my eyes and see Chris looking at me confused "Are you okay?" he asks me. 

I nod still a bit shaken up from the dream I just had "Just a bad dream" I tell him. I look at the clock and see that it's 3 am. I hear footsteps downstairs and see that the lights outside are on. "What's going on?" I ask Chris. 

"We got another package" he says angrily.  I gasp and quickly get up.

"Is everyone okay? What happened?"  

"Oh, you know, a dead human body dragged into pack grounds with a gory message seared into her skin. No biggie" he says with a shrug.

"This is serious Chris! What did the message say?" I ask him. 

"It said: 'The time has come.'" I gasp and almost choke from breathing so quickly. 

"It said what?!" I ask again. 

"Ariel, It just said 'The time has come' what is so serious about that? It's probably just someone trying to mess with us." I stare at him in shock, "The time has come" sings the voice of the old witch in my head. I shake the thought out of my head and look at my brother who is trying to keep calm, but I can tell he is extremely angry and even a little scared. I grab his arm and squeeze it gently.
