Wild Child

Healing

Misty took me to an unknown place in the caves, it had a different glow to it, almost a blue/pink color. It was warmer than the rest of the place...and it was calm too.

"Misty where are we going?" I ask as I licked my arm with the three claw marks. "Ow..." I say as I leave it alone...

"Well I'm bringing you to the healing...." he tells me.

"The healing, what's that?" I ask. 

"You'll see..." he says. We then enter an open area of the cave where there is a large pool of water under blue glowing light. I am in awe, it is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. Misty carried me over to the edge of the pool and set me on the ground next to it.

"Its so beautiful here!" I say as I look up. "But what is glowing up there?" I ask.

"Some of us think its a healing stone made by the mother, others thing its just a light and that the water was enchanted by the mother, but the elder says that the pools light is the gentle power of the mothers pure kind and caring heart that is far away, as long as it glows the water heals....and glows that pretty blue glow over the water" he says as he dips a plant in lightly soaking it, the plant glows the same light, he then brings it out of the water and rubs the water all over my cuts. The water feels nice, gentle and warm...I watch as it absorbs into the cut on my arm. 

I close my eyes and feel my entire body feel the glow flow through my body....they leave scars but they are healed and don't hurt anymore. I look at Misty and turn my paws into hands and place them on his cheeks. 

"Shadow--what, what are you doing?" asked Misty. I lean in coming closer and closer to him face, and press my lips gently against his. We are quiet for a long while, I let go of his face and then slowly pull away, and stare into his eyes, he is blushing but smiles and kisses me back.

"I love you Misty...." I tell him.

"I love you too...." he tells me.

Afterwards I walk with Misty back to everyone else, I am tired so I have to lean on Misty as I walk. The wolf pups all run over to me and Misty as soon as I enter the area.

"Misty, Misty are the rumors true did the chosen one really turn one of the dark wolves into stone?!" asked the pups with there tails wagging.

"Well, why don't you ask her yourself?" he said looking at me. All of the pups looked at me, I stared at their feet trying to rid of the memory of that incident.

"You mean she's the chosen one?" asked one of the pups. Misty nodded. All of the pups eyes lit up and the all stared at me in awe.

"Wow!!! Your so beautiful! Did you really turn the dark wolf into stone?!" said the pups in mixes of similar questions. But one pup nudged me and got my full attention.

"Hmm?" I said looking at the young pup.

"Are you here to save us all from the destroyer?" she asked. I froze and didn't know how to answer her....

"I--I will do what I can...." I told her honestly.

Later I sat in the cave Misty had told me was ours and rested to keep up my strength. I thought about what had happened and the new powers I was getting with the knowledge of this so called crystal bonded into my flesh and skin a top my forehead. I get up and pace back and forth inside the cave. I didn't want anything like that to happen to anyone here, if I was to lose my cool...would my powers become uncontrollable?   

I tried not to think of it....maybe If I learn to control me powers then it'll be less of a problem, yes, yes that's got to be the answer, but where would a good place be to practice? I wondered.

Misty returned and laid by me....I snuggled by him, he looked tired.

"Misty? Is there a place around here where you can train?" I asked him flat out.

"Huh, Oh yeah that would be the training cave, its in the farthest part of this place so no one can get hurt or be heard...why do you ask?" he said.

"I want to be able to control my powers better....I'd hate myself if I hurt anyone here and I feel awful about turning a wolf into stone" I told him.

"But he was going to kill you, you were just defending yourself...its not your fault" he told me.

I looked at him, trying not to cry.

"Hey its OK....its OK....I'm here for you" he whispered to me holding me close.
