Marked

Chapter 14-edited

The nightmares continued. I wonder if they will ever stop. I wonder if I will ever go back home. I should stop wondering... it's too distracting. Now that I know that I can not defeat Kira with strength or skill. I'm going to try a different way. One that I probably should have used in the beginning. I'm going to try to be her friend. I shuttered at the thought. Kira, who was very serious and strict becoming my friend. This is going to be difficult.

Cassidy told Kira I wanted to talk to her. We decided to met in the living room. I walked in the living room. She was sitting on the ground. She looked calm and she smiled. I felt like her smile mocked me. Her smile screamed that I could never defeat her and she would remain alpha. "So what did you want to talk to me about?" Kira said very seriously. I immediately got goosebumps on my arms. For the first time I felt nervous talking to her. Knowing that all my decisions rely on her approval.

I never thought I would say this...here I go. "I'm sorry, I should have treated you with respect. Instead of going behind your back and putting everyone in danger." She smiled, she has been waiting for this day. The day where I would finally submit to her. I would finally listen. Little did she know I was not sorry. I do not like her but right now I need her. " I forgive you." I wonder if she is lying too.

"I think we need to start fresh. I think we should become friends." I tried to seem sweet. She quickly replied, "I couldn't agree more. Similar to most relationships, we need trust. So from now on I am going to trust you to make the right decisions. The only time I will be questioning you is when I'm training you to use your powers." Those were the exact words I wanted to hear. "That's great! So now that we are going to start trusting each other. I want to ask you something. Can I go beyond the forcefield?" She looked like she was going to blow up in anger. The fact that I even asked that question burned her. She was trying not to scream.

She took a few deep breaths and responded. "Fine, but I want you to go with somebody at all times and be back before sunset." Those will be easy rules to follow. I can't believe she said yes. I never thought she would say yes. I guess she really is going to trust me. "Thank you so much!" I squealed and gave her a hug. "Okay, that's enough." I let go and sat back on the carpet. Kira grabbed a box from the book shelf and opened it. Inside was a necklace, which ironically had a wolf on it. "What's that for?" "It's a necklace I enchanted. It's so you can get through the force field without having to take it down." Smart.

She handed it to me. I said thanks. I was going to leave tomorrow morning and Cassidy will come with me.

The next morning. I packed a bag full of stuff. I had a flashlight, a first aid kit, scissors, a blanket, some muffins and a bottle of water. I put tennis shoes on, Cassidy gave them to me. I borrow most of my clothes from her. "Are you ready for an adventure!" Cassidy said. She was very excited. She had her own necklace. We walked out of the cabin and she wouldn't stop asking questions. "Why are we leaving anyway?" I had no idea how she would react. Or if I should even tell her. She was my best friend and we were risking our lives leaving the force field. I owe it to her.

We faced toward the force field and walked right through it like it doesn't exist. " I'm going to find a cure." She looked at me in disbelief. "Your going to try to become human again?" I nodded. I could go home and I wouldn't hurt my family, if I was human. "That's never been done before. Sierra." She turned me forward so we were face to face. "You can't escape the experiment. You were chosen by the original werewolves, to be bitten. We would have to find someone else. Besides I don't think I could adjust to a new roommate." Why was I chosen. I'm not special, I don't have water powers, I'm not an assassin, I'm not a witch. I am just human.  Correction: I was human.

Time to tell her the most dangerous part. "I'm going to the hunters to find a cure." "What! Do you have a death wish! The hunters hate our guts, they love to kill us. They think we are monsters, why in the world would they help us!" "They can't all be evil, just like how not every werewolf is evil. One of them will help us." "Or we will die!" Cassidy was freaking out. I probably should have told her before we left. I wasn't scared. Besides someone will help me and give me the cure then I will be normal and I will go home.
