So many eyes on me I began to grow nervous, without knowing it i clenched Damon tighter until he let out a soft growl warning me to ease up. A smaller wolf began approuching us, Its salt and pepper colored fur just like... and then I realized this was grandma, with her big green eyes, even as a wolf she had the same stern look about her. Damon stopped and motioned for me to climb off, so I did carefully making my way toward grandmother, all eyes still on me. She changed to a human, young looking for her age she was skinny not the way most grandmothers are, yet much wiser. I was taller than her, I stopped about a yard away from her, she smiled ever so slighty. "Scarlette its been so long, you've grown into a beautiful young woman now havent you?" Her voice was kind but still had the same strength I have always rememberd. "Hello grandmother" I said timidly, and bowed I maybe much taller and strong but anyone would be intimidated by my grandmother. "No need for those formalities my child, come we need to talk, this" she motioned to everything around us, "must be a lot to take in, we will go to my home and I'll explain everything." With that she began leading me through the large center and down towards a rather large home (at least for somewhere like this out in the woods) but I soon learned that it was so large only due to the first floor being almost a large meeting room. Once settled down in the living room on a soft sofa, grandma on an identical sofa across from me she began to explain. We are whats refered to by the uninformed as werewolves but the correct term would be shifters, unlike the little story time monsters that only change under the full moon (thts only the forst time), shifters come in many forms this pack though only has shifters of the wolf, though their are many more kinds through out the world. Your great-great-great-great, well you understand, a lot of greats, Grandfather started this pack when he decided someone needed to take on the responsibility and throughout the generations more and more people and even famalies of shifters joined. Each continent now has at least one branch of our pack, this was just the center and I am the head. A shifter begins to show their ability usually around their early teenage years, slowly at first only showing characteristics of their animal not fully shifting and then over time they must learn to control the ability. "Is that why im here?" I asked interupting my grandmother curiosity finally getting the best of me. She nodded and stood looking out the window then down toward the center of this little "town" I suppose you could call it. "You wont be going home tonight, down the hall to your right a room has been set up for you, tomorrow you begin training" Grandma said slowly, walking towards the stairs. "but what about mother? she'll worry" I replied. My mother was the one who had contacted my grandmother, telling her the signs were almost through and I would be shifting on the next full moon, which was coming in 5 days, I was sent here to begin my training and schooling because someone needs to be ready to take over and I am the next in line with my father gone. With that Grandmother was gone and I found my room, after taking a quick shower and changing I collapsed into bed, falling asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow. My dreams were full of wolves, running through the woods, in the beginning they were all just out hunting maybe? then the sky darkened and the moon was covered. War, destrauction all I could see was wolves fighting, though the opposing looked different, something was wrong with them but before I could figure it out I jolted awake, heart beating fast I sat up for a few minutes calming myself before lying back down to enter another deep dark sleep, no more dreams for the night .
