Sinders Arise

3 The first change

We sit and talk for a little while before he helps me up and we head to class. As we walk to my 4th block class - since 3rd block was going to end in two minutes . Nash walks beside me quietly.

" If you want you can sit at my table for lunch, you don't have to eat in the teacher's classroom." He says. I ponder how on earth he knew I ate in the classroom yesterday. I smile and nod. When we get to my fourth block class he bends down and places a kiss on my temple. My breath hitches. He straitens just as the bell rings signaling the end of class and the beginning of another. Nash walks away quickly disappearing in the crowd of kids.

After sixth block ends I grab my lunch from my locker and head to the cafeteria in search for Nash. Someone pushes me and I fall hitting my head on a door knob pretty hard. I feel blood trickle down the side of my face as I stand. People have started to gather around me, they were all laughing at me. My face burns with embarrassment. Somebody starts to push through the crowd and the thought of more people trying to see me so they can laugh at me made me even more embarrassed and it made me angry. What had I done to any of them to deserve being pushed around then laughed at? What did I do to make myself a target? My hands began to burn and I look down. My skin was rippling and the veins in my hands were beginning to turn black, my nails growing longer and sharper. I gasp in pain and hide my hand behind my back terrified that someone will see what was happening to me. I can't believe this! What is wrong with me? First that weird voice box, than the boy Nash, than that vision or daydream or whatever that was, and now this. I am literally losing my mind slowly.   

I look up just in time to see Nash break through the crowd and grab my arm. He pulls me into a empty room with no windows. He locks the door quickly and turns to me eyes concerned. There's a horrible pain bursting through my body and I throw my head back. The pain was horrible the worst pain anyone could imagine but two times worst. I try to scream but no sound comes out of my throat. It feels as if something is breaking my bones one by one. I try to scream again but again no sound comes out. My lungs squeeze tight making it impossible to breathe. My legs snap and forcibly bend the wrong way and refix themselves. I choke out a breath. I fall to the ground my body breaking in all different directions. Tears rush down my face the pain getting worse. I shake my mouth and jaw rips out of my skin stretching forward. A tearing sound rips through the small space. My senses grow stronger and my body stops shaking. The pain slowly beginning to fade. I drag my heavy body up off the ground on my hands and knees. My eyes dart around the small room. Something in front of me moves catching my attention. The boy Nash swallows and looks at me his eyes gentle but stern at the same time. I try to stand on two feet but I can't I fall on my side a whimpered cry bursting out of my mouth.

I look down to see what's wrong and I sketcher the sound more of a low yelp. My eyes widen to the size of baseballs. I freak out scared of what I say to be me. I wasn't normal that's for sure. My parents had a lot of secrets that they kept from us because this, turning into a beast is not normal. I wasn't the average teenage girl that I thought I was before the crash. Fear runs through me as I think of everything that has happened since the crash. I need my mom, I need my little sister, and I need answers. I have no idea where I am going to get them but I need answers. I wasn't human anymore.

I am a giant wolf! A WOLF for goodness sake! With black and golden fur. I am the size of a horse. Probably even bigger than that. Nash pulls my attention back to him by taking a step toward me. I let out a warning growl without really meaning to. He holds up his hands in a peaceful gesture. He doesn't seem to be scared.

" Whoa. Whoa. It's okay. I won't hurt you." He says. I just look down at him. He takes another step and I growl on purpose this time. Trying to warn him to stay back because I don't want to hurt him. His eyes suddenly change color to a more vivid blue that seems to glow. His nails grow into long sharp points and his ears slide up the side of his head. He begins to look like a.... wolf. My eyes widen and I sink to my belly putting us at the same height.
