You know the feeling of complete and utter uselessness. Feeling vulnerable and annoyed at the fact that you feel that way. Well, that’s exactly how I feel. Lying here on this bed, immobile. I can hear everything, smell everything, feel everything, but can’t see anything or move anything. No matter how hard I try I can’t move. It’s like i’m a breathing corpse. And I hate it. Every day I hear my brother and friends talk, train, laugh, cry, plan and do everything in their power to try and help me. And here I am lying on this bed resting. I should be out there with them. I should be there for my brother, helping him face his fate. I have important information to give them but I can’t, I don’t know how to.
Today my brother is going to shift for the first time and I’m not there to support him. But I know there’s nothing I can do. As much as I hate depending on people I know I have to. If I don’t face that fact then I’ll go crazy lying here every day. Every night my brothers and friends come to me, taking it in turns, asking me to fight, to stay with them and be strong. I’m trying, I’m trying so hard and I can feel it every day as those witches and wolves try to pull my soul further away; but then I can also feel Tara pulling it back more than they could pull it away.
They spoke to me that day. The wolves had told me that they wanted the Great Alpha Wolf and that they would not stop until they got him, even if it meant killing everyone in their way. I told them I didn’t know what they were talking about but they didn’t believe me. I kept trying to convince them but then they said and I quote, “Fine, if you won’t hand him over then he’ll come himself. If not then we have other ways and do not forget. We will kill everyone who comes in our way. But I promise you this; the Great Alpha Wolf will be mine.” After they said that I felt something pulling at me, I could feel them pulling out my soul. It was like someone cutting you open, putting in a rope, stitching you up, then cutting you open again and slowly pulling out the rope. I remember drawing my last breath before they finished snatching my soul. I remember being in a white room. An endless room.
Then just as slowly as my soul had been snatched out, I felt someone pull it back in. I could feel both forces (those pulling out, those pulling in) tugging on my soul. As though they were playing tug-of-war and once again my soul had become the rope. I had felt a slight warmth flow through my body as my heart started pumping blood through my bogy once again. I couldn’t hear, feel, or smell anything though until I was brought here, to Tara’s house. I heard everything, from Tara’s confession of who she is to the explanation of what happened to my mum. I cried and wanted to say something but of course, I couldn’t. So here I am once again.
Tara had been the one pulling my soul back in but hadn’t been able to restore it completely. So I have half my soul and the other half is being kept by evil wolves and witches working together to destroy my brother. It feels like someone has stuck my soul in a cage, wrapped it with chains and put a lock on it. Now the only way my soul can be fully retrieved is by killing the person who snatched my soul in the first place. That is what my brother is planning to do. In order to do that one thing he has to do all this as well. But it’s his fate and although i’m upset I can’t be there for him i’m happy that he is becoming who he’s meant to be. The Great Alpha Wolf.
During this time of me being in a.. let’s say coma, my mother came to me. She told me some things that are very important for my brother to know and some things that will remain with me. Somehow I have to get this information to him before his confrontation with the bad pack (the one that snatched my soul). If I don’t then he and our entire pack could be destroyed. And I think I know just how…Tara.
