The Girl from the Trees

Chapter Six:

I have learned to utilize all of my senses since I started to live in the wild. That's the only thing that has ever kept me alive. And that's what makes me different. I can smell the air and sense who is near. I can see fast movements and predict what movement will come next. I can be swift, quiet, and unheard better than the average person. I can hear farther and better which allows me to tell what type of animal is near and how far that animal is. My wolf is the same size of an Adult Alpha wolf. I am strong. The only way to survive on your own in the wild is to become wild yourself. To be untamed and truly, that's all I am.

When I entered the arena, three warriors stood on the other side. They were armored with chains, bow and arrows, knifes, and bats. The crowd was cheering for these warriors with such expression. It was pretty pathetic to know that they were set up against one girl. Not playing fair, are we? I looked at my surroundings and saw that the arena now had a couple huge boulders around the arena and plants/trees. They really went all out, didn't they?

As I walked towards the center of the arena, just as the three warriors did, the Alpha's voice bellowed. "WELCOME EVERYONE! TONIGHT WE WILL SEE THE EXECUTION OF A ROUGE AND WITNESS OUR GREATEST WARRIORS FIGHT! THIS IS THE FIGHT TO THE DEATH! THROUGHOUT THE FIGHT, WE WILL ADD MORE OBSTACLES TO THIS CRIMINAL AS SHE FACES OUR HEROES. AFTER THIS, WE WILL CELEBRATE OUR HEROES AND ALSO MY SON'S COMING OF AGE!"

And at that moment, over all the cheering and all the eyes on me, I heard an arrow fly over. Naturally, I moved slightly and realized that the arrow was sent for me from someone outside of the arena and I knew then that the fight had begun. I grabbed the arrow that was now at my feet and ran towards one of the boulders to group myself together. I heard the warriors disperse through the trees and throughout the arena.

As I stood there hiding, I realized that I was not going to be the one hunted tonight, I was going to hunt them down. So, I listened and tried to sense my surroundings. I walked out from one of the boulders and started to walk through the trees. And just as easy as it was for me to walk, I heard one of the warriors walking near. I stalked him like a lion preys on a gazelle through the high grass. He didn't hear me or sense me for about two minutes. And two minutes is a long time in a situation like this. As he kept walking, I stepped out and push kicked him in the back so that he stumbled. He automatically pulled out his sword and challenged me. Mind you, I had no weapon. But also mind you, I don't need a weapon.

As he lunged at me and started to swing at me like a maniac, I swiftly and easily kept moving my body swiftly so that he never hit me. He looked like an idiot just trying to attack me without thinking. I could tell that he was getting frustrated and I took the opportunity to go on offense mode. As I moved from one of his swings, I darted near him and punched him straight in the face. I couldn't stop myself. I kept punching, undercutting, elbowing, kneeing him, until he looked like he was about to collapse. I heard a fast movement behind me then, and knew it was one of the other warriors. As I heard this second warrior run towards me, I counted till I knew he was close to be right behind me. And at that exact moment, I turned with that arrow that I picked up earlier and jabbed it straight into his gut, His momentum and my strength as I pierced him with the elbow was enough for him to fall to the floor. The first man got up again and said, "you are going to die, you dumb bitch!" And then he turned into his wolf.

I picked up his knife and faced him, as this huge brown wolf came charging at me. I tried my best to block his bites with the knife. When he came charging at me once more,I ran toward a tree. As I picked up my speed, I took two steps on the tree and flipped off the tree. At that exact moment, the wolf was under the tree so I landed on top of his neck. I took the knife, and with all my strength and with a war cry, I shoved the knife down on his neck. He dropped to the floor dead and I knew that I had gone primal. I was not myself. Adrenaline and power ran through me. The need to survive was surging through my body. The crowd was starting to become silent. Low murmurs were being fluttered around the arena.

I ran back to the second warrior who was still bleeding on the floor. I grabbed him by the hair and in a swift movement, snapped his neck. I was not paying attention to the crowd as much but I did recognize the eerie silence in the crowd. I heard gates of the arena open and heard growls that I was all to used to: panthers. These animals had become very annoying in the wild. They were just as quiet and skillful as I was. They might not be huge animals, but they were very dangerous. I listened and heard two. Then I heard bow and arrows fly through the air toward me. I didn't have much time to react, so I took the second warrior that I killed and put him over my shoulders as protection for the arrows. When the arrows had landed, I heard the panther growls behind me. They had been starved and one of them was badly injured from the arrows. I threw the body that I had on my shoulders toward them and watched them devour it. I took the chance and stabbed them like a mad woman with the arrow from what I used to kill the second warrior. By this time I was drenched in blood and everything was just getting exhausting.

I didnt notice the change of air, till something bit down on my shoulder and swung me in the air. My energy increased and I was agitated. I screamed a long growl and as I did this, I transformed into my black wolf. I faced the grey wolf that bit me, the third warrior, and we circled one another. My wolf was much larger than this. But he knew he had the advantage from biting me.

He tried to claw and bite me but I was too used to these movements. I was too accustomed to my senses. So I tried to get close and when I got the chance, I bit him on the shoulder and locked my jaw. I made sure that my bite was deep and shaked my head so he would yell in pain. Just then, I felt a sharp pain on my shoulder and realized that I had been hit by an arrow. It took me some time but I could see that arrows kept flying at me and well, and that just pissed me off.

So I ran to the wolf, grabbed a hold of his neck, and pulled his throat out. I didn't stop though. I kept ripping his insides out till he was just a pile of red, bloody guts. When I was finished, I roared at my triumphed and it was deadly silent.

I looked up at the audience and saw that no one was moving and everyone just kept staring at me. After three minutes, the Alpha stood up and yelled for the woman to take me away. I transformed into my human self and followed the women. And as I walked, I was chained. By then, I was too tired to protest.

The women took me into one of the rooms, and tried to clean me up. But all I kept thinking was "My name is Alaska. I am untamed and I am alive.". It kept running in my head and I started to feel myself get dizzy. I saw the Alpha walk through the tunnel with his son. His son looked oftly handsome but before either the Alpha or the son could approach the doorway, I saw my world black out. I was lost and although I had survived, I felt lonely and scared. I didn't know what was going to happen next.
