Survive (Discontinued)

Chapter 17: Stestial's P.O.V

I stomped away from him but then heard the door open when they thought I was out of sight. Shadow invited Mikal inside and I was confused. Did she have a thing for Mikal even after I told her he was mine. Maybe she didn't realize what I meant. It was implied but not truly said, I guess.

"Come inside." She said and Mikal willingly walked in. Then there was shouting and arguing before Mikal threw a rock at Shadow's mom. It hit her in the face and she shifted into something I will never forget.

I stayed hidden but as they ran off Mikal was carrying Shadow. What was going on?!

Annamorga, Shadow's mom, ran after them with a deadly look in her eye. Her eyes were that of a killer and experienced in that sort of thing. Why did she want to kill them?

So many questions ran through my mind but none had an answer. Why did it always end up leading back to me? If you don't understand then let me explain. Everything that happens whether it be good or bad, it's usually bad, ends up leading back to me. I have never understood this but have continued to press on.

I silently followed them as a women's screams were piercing through the night air. The smell of blood rushed to my nostrils and I panicked. What was happening? There wasn't good lighting so I couldn't tell who was dying.

That's when I saw them, Annamorga was lying on the ground. She was paler than a ghost and Shadow was covered in blood. Then Shadow breathed in deeply and the blood absorbed into her skin. It was terrifying, next Mikal stood there with Shadow in his arms. I thought something was about to happen but then they started walking away. Shadow was shaky while Mikal was firm and surefooted.

I then went back to my woods where I could peacefully sleep. Little did I know what awaited me when I got there.
