Hope

Chapter three ~ Fear

*plop* *plop* I jumped up on my bed.*plop* *plop* " Oh it's just water" I said relived. "I guess I'll get ready now" I told myself.

I walked over the stream of water going from the window down the wall and under the door. This was normal whenever it rained although it wasn't all bad for, me anyways. I went into my bathroom on my way grabbing a black shirt and blue shorts out of my dresser. Going in my bathroom I got basket from beside my water bucket. In it was a metal comb, some candy, and some ribbon to put my hair up with all from Charlie. I put up my hair to cover my ears, it really stinks when I get water in my ears, and I put on the shirt first careful not to mess up my hair "I really need to stop putting my hair up first" I told my self. Then I put on my pants careful not to get them wet from my feet.

It seemed to take long enough but I was ready. I walked out of the bathroom looking at the stream, I loved water. I stood in the flowing puddle then sat down. Then I thought I saw something out of the corner of my eye, but when I turned my head to look it went away. After a few minuets of bouncing in the puddle I stepped out because I felt dizzy and my back, my tail, and my head hurt. I looked at the puddle and there where waves in it like when I play in the water in my bucket. But what freaked me out the most was the boy that appeared on the other side of the water. I heard the door unlocking, Then it all went away the boy and the pain.

"Look what I go-" Charlie stopped quickly "are you ok?!". I didn't realize it until now but I had a blank look on my face. Did I want to tell him or should I just keep my mouth shut, I had to make a choice I couldn't sit here forever. "no no no I'm fine" I told him I had just told my first intentional lie. but I couldn't tell him I didn't have a choice, I just wish someone would tell me the truth. We started to talk and he had brought me food so I ate that also. Then like every day he had to leave. Just like every day Just like every day Just like every day. Those words just keep playing through my head. I'm so tired of this life.

( two years pass)

It's been two years and I'm still not sure who that boy is or who that voice belongs to and why I hurt. I've been fighting it when ever it happened but I think next time I wont. I stood in my room waiting for something to happen. Then I heard moving outside the door as soon as I started to walk over to the noise Liva came in." Come on your going somewhere special." she told me with a smile it scared me a little but it sounded fun I've never been outside this room before. I thought it would be a good choice until they put me in a cage.

I tried to get out but I was stuck the sides, bottom, and back of the cage where covered, it was cold, I could feel my heart speed up then it happened again the pain I let it take over. Blood covered the bottom of the cage and a white scaly tail and wings filled the cage. But this couldn't be happening I wasn't a dragon half blood I was a wolf. The moving stopped at a large door, the door opened and they dumped me out in the room then the door closed. I looked around it was a large oval room with some people sitting on one end of the oval covered by bars. Actually all around was covered by bars about 15 feet of smooth rock then the bars all around. The roof was even covered with them.

I took a closer look at myself. My arms and legs where covered in scales I have long claws replacing my nails. I stood there frozen in fear. Then if it wasn't already bad enough another large door opened on the other side of the room. A wolf full blood walked out, I don't know but I could just tell. It was a girl but not a pretty one. She was covered in scares, burns and bald spots, would I end up like that, I could feel my expression change from scared to terrified. She began to walk towards me my white scales started to slowly turn black and I lost control of them my vision blacked out.
