The Wolf in Me

Chapter 3: Who is He???

Ethan's POV

20 days after the challenge.

--------------------

The bite was now barely visible and I needed some questions answered. It was after school that day that I again met the same boy who had before saved my clothes and humility. It was like time to meet him again to ask some questions about what he was. I remember Tim saying that he's a reptile. What reptile? There are so many reptiles but which one is human? Was he an alien? I heard of the reptile aliens who were look like dragons.

I quickly went to him as he was on the road talking to another boy with similar hair and skin, possibly his brother. His name I knew was Jeor Duskveil and he was in my grade, he was younger than me but stronger. And the mysterious guy had his hands wrapped around Jeor's shoulders.

I followed him for sometime but I didn't know how to bring up the topic to him. I heard him talking to Jeor and speaking some gibberish, perhaps it was Latin but I'm not sure.

I came to him but asked Jeor, "Hey man! How was your day?!"

Jeor - "It was well, how was yours?"

Me - "Fine! Um, this your older bro?"

Jeor - "Aye, he is my older brother."

"Ummm....." I was clueless of what could I say but the boy looked at me with his lilac eyes wide open. "Jeor, fly. I shall join you later."

Jeor ran away, and I was left with the boy. I owed him a lot I guessed because he saved my clothes after all.

"I am called Daron, Daron Duskveil." He told me his name and shook his hands with me.

"Daron?" I thought to myself, "what an awkward name."

"Aye, I know you think it is an awkward name." He said to me as if he could read my mind. Still I went on and asked him my questions.

"Umm.... Tim that day said that youre a reptile. I mean not that...." I stammered because I didnt know what to ask him.

"That is something else entirely," he said to me, "you're probably wondering why they fear me."

Me - "Yes! And that you look so strange, I mean are you natural blond?"

Daron - "Yes, I am a natural blond."

Me - "Wow! And your eyes, contacts?"

Daron - "No, naturally purple."

Me - "Wow! And the clothes you guys wear, youre parents must be rich."

Daron - "Yes they are, but we got all of this from inheritance."

Me - "Inheritance? You must've got a royal history I believe."

Daron - "Yes we do, but I that is a story for another day."

Me - "Another day? When"

Daron - "A little less than half a score days."

Me - "How much is half a score?"

Daron - "Ten. Farewell, Ethan Lightman, Our paths shall cross again."

He then quickly walked away and out of sight. I was still about but it looked almost strange as hell! I still had some questions so I went after him, but when I went to him, he was nowhere to be found. Damn! He must be a fast walker, the roads are very long and its close to impossible to disappear like this. It seemed as if he either grew wings and flew away or he is secretly spiderman and.... Na! Just joking, he's definitely not spiderman.

So to call, I don't think he ever goes to gym because he has only a little muscles but as a matter of fact I seen him life like 1000 pounds of weight.

There were a few questions I wanted to ask him, but it seemed like he wanted me to wait. I didn't know what plan he had in mind, but 10 days is not a very long time and so I hoped to see him again. After all, he didn't look like he was gonna let me alone.

I guessed he had something in mind, what is he up to? Will he meet me again?
