The Long Journey [Editing in Progress]

Chapter 1: Killian

Killian POV: (1994)

I opened my eyes and the color red dominated almost every single inch inside the car as if it was a painting.

I am Killian and my family just died.

(~30 Minutes Earlier~)

"Momma when are we going to get there?" I ask.

As of this moment, were on the road heading to the airport to head somewhere far away for a trip.

Daddy told me he's not going work for a while so we can go on this trip. My Daddy is busy all the time, he sometimes doesn't come home for dinner, which makes momma sad. But I still love Daddy, Momma can get mean.

My little sister is my best friend cause without her I would be super bored all the time and have no fun. Her name is Katya, she's 3 years old. A year young than me. I like to boss her around most of the time cause I'm older, thats why Momma can be a meany.

"In about 2 hours baby, don't worry we'll get there real soon." Momma replied while smiling really big, her bright green eyes are almost covered for squinting so much.

I know Momma is real excited about this trip because she misses Daddy too. Daddy wasn't always busy like he is now. He was always home before dinner time and would tuck me in bed, read me stories, and would play with me until his job asked him to work more. It keeps him away from home. Katya isn't that sad about it because she's a Momma's girl.

The long thin road is so empty, I didn't see any cars anywhere. I decided to look to my left towards the woods and I saw the sun starting to go down behind the trees. I love the woods, I love running barefoot. I like the feeling of the dirt and soil under my feet, I can sense my surroundings better that way. Daddy and Momma say it's in my nature because I'm a werewolf, I won't be able to shift until I'm 14 years old, that's ten more years! I seriously can't wait to meet my wolf.

Before I can turn to hear what Katya just said, I see a small figure behind the trees. It looks like a horse, but it was smaller. I try to look harder, but the animal disappeared.

I look at Katya and tell her to say what she said again.

"Brotha, what you looking at?" She asks with her big turquoise eyes even thought her black hair is covering most of it. She looks into my turquoise eyes, which we both got from Daddy, but we got our Momma's black hair. While she looks at me we are almost at eye level, she's catching up to my height. I'm pretty small for a 4 year old. I'm 3'7" while Katya is 3'5". She's growing up real fast which can mean she'll be an Alpha or Beta when she grows up. I'll probably be an Omega since Omega's have a smaller figure, maybe a Beta if I grow up soon. I'm not upset about it because I'm not like Katya. She's loud and can make friends fast unlike me, I only have one friend and that is Katya. I don't like talking to others, simple as that.

"I thought I saw something in the woods but maybe it was ju-"

Next thing I know I saw that 'horse' looking thing running real fast almost, scared?

Daddy's car moved the left and went around and around until it the car finally stopped deep in the woods. I think I hit my head on something cause darkness soon consumed me.

(~Present~)

I woke up and I saw red.

I look towards Katya and she has red on her face. I try to shake her awake, but she won't.

"Katya?" I ask horsely, my throat is really dry. I look towards Momma.

"Momma, Katya won't wake up, why won't she wake up?" I ask while crying.

Momma didn't say anything. I try to unbuckle my self, but it won't budge. Maybe its because I'm upside down. After I try again I finally unbuckle myself. I hit the roof hard against the shards of glass. I move towards Momma and she has red all over her face and arms. I look to Daddy now and he groans.

"DADDY! Momma and Katya won't wake up, theres so much red all over there faces. Why won't they wake up?" I ask still crying my eyes out.

"Ki...lli...an" He says with shallow breathing.

"Kill...ian" He says again but this time I respond.

"Daddy" I cry out whimpering.

"Hear me out......Killian.... I need you..... to be brave now..... okay?" Daddy says.

"Promise me Killian...... Promise....me....you'll be brave" He asks again almost painfully.

"I promise...Daddy" I say back, hiccuping between responding.

"Okay son.... I need ...you to.... leave the car"he says trying his hardest to breath.

"NO!!!!" I shout "NOT WITHOUT YOU, MOMMA, AND KATYA"

"Look son... you have to be strong.... Momma and Katya are gone" I didn't understand because there here. I can see them. But at the same time they aren't, I can feel it.

" You have to be brave son" he says.

"Ok-kay" I finally say.

"Son.... you've got to be strong...remember we love you"

Before I knew it, those were his last words in this world. I cried so hard. I immediately left the car but while I was getting out, the cars window had a glass that was stuck and it ran through the right side of my shoulder to the left side under my rib cage. There was so much red. I finally got out of the car and I see it smashed and broken.

I fell to my knees and cried loudly. I no longer felt the pain from my back. I felt angry and sad because my family is gone. I'm all alone. I'm lost.

I walked north, deeper into the woods. It's almost dark now. It's raining and its cold. My tears are being washed away by the rain as I walk to find shelter and try to stay dry. I find a tree that can shelter me until morning. My legs are getting weaker, my breathing is getting shallow and my vision is getting blurry. I finally get to the tree and try to catch my breath and clear my vision. As I sit, I hear branch twigs snap. I shoot my head up and look for the source of the sound.

Thats when I saw a bright pair of glowing yellow eyes. almost gold looking straight towards my direction. Beautiful . It comes out of the trees and I try stand up. It's a dragon.

"Beautiful" I mumble before everything goes dark.
