Hey there! Who am I you ask well my name is Veronica Gemstone I am a 16 year old female at the height of 5'3. I have 1 annoying little sister and a baby brother. Though I am the oldest of the bunch well except for my 20 year old brother, but he moved away at the age of 18 and as you can tell my family is packing because we are in need of moving due to the fact that my mom was getting a new job and my dad filing divorce papers. Where are we moving you ask to a small town I grew up in and its pretty far from Miami so we are having to take a plane which kinda sucks because I may or may not have a fear of heights? But luckily my mom is paying for a rental and we drive to the area after drop off.

"Veronica get down here or we'll be late!" I had heard my mom yell from the living room. I ran down the hallway to the living room. To be honest I'm gonna miss this crappy place; it may not have been the best place for a family of five, well now four since dad isn't coming with us. Though the main reason it dangerous to raise a family here is because this place is a place where many people can get robbed or even killed but I did make a lot of good friends here so that's the main reason it sucks to move.

I am pretty sure I'll enjoy my home town a little more because we'll be surrounded by nature which is what I love with all the scenery and landscape, but I have to give up anime and my supernatural tv shows. Mom had said it would be good for me to go outside into the sunlight so I'm not as pale as I am at the moment. I seriously look like vampire.

"Veronica its time to leave this dump of a home" my mom stated as she had just finished putting everything in the moving van. I ran down stairs and outside seeing our dark midnight blue van. Pack inside this van where my little siblings playing with there toys and little Carter eating his car of course. 'I swear that child is secretly a goat...' I hopped into the front seat and looked out the window as my mom began to drive.

Though before I hoped it to the car I gave my father a hug he was an alright man until stress of work lead to other ways of relaxing. Though as I looked back I saw the sorrow in my father's eyes as we drove away. While we drove further away I'm reminded it wasn't the smallest house in the neighborhood, but in that moment it was the smallest house around. I looked forward again brush off the sadness I had felt. I would not cry because starting from here on out a new life begins not one of the fighting between parents, but a new beginning of journeys with my new family. My mother, Julia, Baby Carter, and Me. I smile to myself as the airport soon plays into view after a while.

The plane station was busy as usual cause everyone wants to go to every place. But we finally managed to get on after what felt like for hours of waiting. I close my eyes once the plane had took off as I didn't want to look down fearing the worst might happen. "Gemy you need to clam down will be okay" my mother spoke softly as she patted my head like her and dad use to once upon a time. I smile as my heart rate slowed down. I looked towards her she had the eye bags left from countless fights between my father and her though she still seemed to glow with joy.

No matter what I'll always be thankful that she didn't become bitter after the divorce path was chosen, so I like to think that her and dad left on good terms... Once landed I helped mom make sure Julia stayed close to us while mom was with Carter. Since we went on a plane we all only brought one bag of luggage the rest was to be shipped here which is nice and the car mom had rented was already in place it was a nice silver car with what looked like blue tinted headlight. This was the best thing ever it was a nice model and had extremely good millage but also beats our family car any day.
"Why must this beauty be a rental mom it's so gorgeous" I gave the car a hug making my mom lightly laugh which was a new thing to hear from her.

"I know it may seem amazing Veronica but don't get to attached our family car will arrive in the next few days." She had gotten the keys and opened the doors. Allowing the kids to enter the car while I put the luggage in the back.

I sighed entering the car "Well I'm going to get attached to it and not let you take it back. Since when I turn seventeen this year I'll have my license so I can drive." I smirked as I patted the top of the dash board it was so soft!

"Good luck since you'll still be to young to drive a rental missy." My mom remakes back. We then began our journey to our new home. Once reaching close enough their I rolled  my window down to let the fresh forest air enter. Lycanwood was the name of the town I use to live in when I was young the area is mostly enclosed in forest but not complete and it was such a peaceful place when I wad little.

The name Lycanwood original know as HowlingWoods became know from the woods it has miles around and because people would always hear howls of the wind threw the night sky. It later went from Howling to Lycan as many people would tell stories of see the big wolves with glowing eyes that would only hunt at night and many have said they could hear the howls from these huge wolves. Though if you were to ever meet face to face with this wolf creature and make it back alive it was out of favoritism from the creatures, but some people never got that favoritism. They were never seen again... Though I swore my parents believed these stories as much as the next person as I was never allowed out passed night. I mean coming from me I believe the stories, but unlike other kids I never to it in to mind as I thought they were long gone.

I gazed out my window and as we began passing some forest trees I saw a gorgeous white wolf with blue on what seemed like a hill. I was amazed by the sight, so I reached for my phone to snap a picture but once I looked back up the wolf vanishes. I groaned "Awww come on I was so close tp snapping a picture..." I looked back to the direction I saw it and was reminded of a wolf pup I once took care of when I younger.  "I wonder how that pup was doing it's probably full grown by now but I hope it survived..." I quietly asked myself.

The car finally stopped and we had arrived at a small two story house. Now the new story begins. I thought as I looked at the new house.
