Mistakes Made Known

Two: Impressions

The time I began to regain consciousness, I really could not tell but I was greeted nicely with loads of negative impulses from my body. I have experienced the mother of all hangovers but this headache made those look like pin pricks. My ears were ringing terribly, I was feeling really hot all over and my vision was so blurred, I couldn't see nothing.

After what seemed like forever, I could see the blurred images of my brothers frantically screaming even though I could only hear ringing. Slowly, all my sense organs began to function properly. I was immediately hit with the frantic voices of those around me. Imagine your brain was the ball in a baseball or cricket game. That pretty much sums up what their voices where doing to me. I wanted to tell them to shut their yaps but could I do that?.

Nooo.

Why?
Because my throat made sandpaper feel like silk. With the effort I don't think I've made before, I managed to croak "water".

It was comical how they were running helter skelter for it and I would have laughed if I already didn't want to tear out my throat due to pain. I used a straw to slowly sip the cool refreshing drink. Finally, my voice now felt like mine again. My first glorious words were, "would you pups just shut your running yaps?".
Then,
Silence.
I never thought that I could enjoy the sound of silence so much.
Now, would someone please tell me what is going on here.
"Well......",
"Umm.......",

Like seriously they were avoiding my eyes. If that wasn't enough to tell me that something was wrong, then I don't know what else would.

"Would you just suck it up and tell me what's going on?", I say extremely frustrated.

"Well you missed the first day of the program". Trevor finally said .
" What?!, Then who the hell said my speech?"
"Well... We tried to stop her.." Trevor began but I didn't want any of that crap.
"Just tell me".

" It was Sophie".

"What?!" I literally screamed. I'm going to kill that bitch.

Let me describe Sophie for you. She isn't the average high school antagonist you might be thinking about. No. She is a me wannabe. In other words, she wants to be me. You must be thinking that it must be great but trust me when I that it is worse than that. First of all, she hates the fact that I'm the future Luna and she tries to take part in any activity that is meant for Lunas. She copies my outfits, literally. Our wardrobes are almost identical, it freaks me out. She is always sucking up to Trevor so he can make her Luna and do you know the worst part, she is sickly sweet. Ugh. You might not be convinced but trust me when I say that she is a ticking time bomb.

"Well what do we do?" Tyler asked.
"What is going on at the moment?" I ask.
"The mate hunting is about to start but we just rushed in here because the nurse ran out blabbering stuff about you flying and a red glow, so we rushed in here thinking you were dying or something but you look ok so... " Tyler drawled out.

" Tyler come here, do you seem to notice anything different about Claudia, like her eyes and hair?" Trevor asks.
They all seem to be really quiet and observant after this and it creeps me out.

"The changes are not really noticeable unless you take a close look. Her hair seems to have become really light colored, almost white, I can see some silver highlights too and her eyes are no more that lovely shade of green, it is very dark like a jungle at night". Tyler just speaks like he is stating the weather not minding that he is creeping me out.

"You guys know that you are creeping me out right?"
"Sorry, we just thought they were subtle changes that you made yourself besides you still look pretty".

"Knock it off Tyler, I never made any of those changes, I swear. I need a mirror now, besides, I'm sure it was just a prank you pul_". I was cut off by the sight of a tattoo the size of a peach on my wrist. The tattoo was a wolf on a cliff howling to a blood moon . It had a soft red glow on it.

"So the crazy nurse was telling the truth" Tyler says.
I was very scared because I had seen something like this when I joined Trevor to read Lycan mythology. All of a sudden, Trevor became very pale.

"Trevor, what is this? What's wrong? You are scaring me, cut it out " I was seriously scared, trust me ,I don't scare easily.
" Claudia, do you remember when you were forced to read lycan mythology with me?"
I nod my head, too scared to speak.

"We saw something like this and while you complained on how boring it was, I researched on it and I found out that the mark on a werewolf who has impressed the moon goddess looks exactly like that but with a silver moon and a bluish glow. It is only red when the moon goddess wants to clean the world using that person because he or she has impressed the goddess enough to be used as a harbinger of death".

"What?!".Tyler and I shout at the same time. "What I don't understand is why it appeared the way it did because if she marks you with her impression, the whole camp would feel it but even up close, I don't feel a thing. Do you feel different?". Trevor asks visibly shaken.
"Surprisingly, No. I'm just weirded out with my white hair and dark eyes".

"Unless it's a corrupted mark. Apparently, from what I read, earlier wolves were normally impressed by the moon goddess, giving them immense power but people started using dark magic to corrupt them and bend them to their will. It became severe so the moon goddess decided to stop impressing people, only those with pure hearts".

"Wow, you really got your lycan mythology covered". I say.

"Seriously Cloud, is that your reaction too finding this out?" Tyler asks.
"What, don't judge me. I'm still in shock besides, it's not everyday you hear that you might be the end of the world".

"Claudia, you need to listen to me. No one must know about this, not even mom and dad. Hide it if necessary, never show it to anyone. Your hair and eyes can be explained but no one can miss that glow on your wrist. Wrap your wrists always if necessary. Anyone can use this against you. Tyler, this conversation must never leave this room. Do you both understand?".

"Yes" We both agree.

"Well we have to get going now, our mates are waiting ".
"Wait for me, I'm coming too."
"No Claudia, you just recovered. Stay put".
"0k Trevor. Good luck on the mate hunt but please introduce me to her at least before you mark her unlike some people". Tyler blushed furiously

"Did you really think that we wouldn't notice the numerous love bites on your skin and that gigantic red welt you have been trying so hard to hide?". I ask, really amused.
"Anyway, don't let me keep you. Run along now boys".

Trevor looked at me suspiciously. I mean come on, I never pass an opportunity to have fun and I never agree with him easily but I guess I just needed a little time to myself to process things.

They left and I just lay down to think about it all. Apparently I'm now a murderer, I can't help it. This mark will make sure of it but I don't feel different. Does it mean that anything I touch will die or I'm now programmed to be a war machine. Does it mean that I can't have a mate. What if it works with emotion, if I get angry, will I blow a fuse and kill everything around me. Is it something I can control. Can I control people?.Ok maybe I'm blowing it a little bit out of proportion.

All of a sudden ,I felt really hot. As if a raging fire was building inside me. I was squirming and sweating a lot. I climbed the window and sat on the roof. The feeling of the wind was like a lover's caress on my skin. I decided to try something. If with my impression, I could bend wolves to my will, I felt that maybe I could bend the elements to my will because the elements are what makes up a wolf. I imagined the air around me as a child with no sense of direction, then willed it to flow around me. Instantly, the fire I felt dulled to a throb. The wind that arrived carried the sounds of the groans and moans of werewolves who found their mates. Ugh, werewolves can be animals sometimes. Then a smell hit my nose.

Hey guys !!! Sorry for not updating. It's just that, you know that moment when you phone gets wrecked then you expect another sooner or later, well mine came later than sooner. And I honestly suck at grammar so I need anyone to help me point out spelling mistakes, grammar and all that. Your votes and comments are highly welcomed.
Till we meet again 👋 👋 😁
