Darkness of the Moon

C6: Eclipse

Where am I? Oh I'm back here again. Back in my amazing room. What happened?

You fainted after knowing your gonna spend the rest of your life with the sexy guy. My wolf responds as I open my eyes wider to see the sun setting outside.

"Are you ok?" Alec asks sitting next to me.

I jump up, shocked for a moment, before remembering he is the 'one'. "Oh it's just you," I relax a bit.

"I guess Jason gave you the talk huh?" He sighs.

"You could say that," I respond lying back down. That's when I felt a sharp pain in my hand.

"Ouch!" I sit up holding my hand. Now my arm. The pain travels up my body.

"Damnit! I forgot to tell you!" Alec yells standing up and running over to the other side of the room.

"AHHH! What's happening?!" I scream feeling the pain in my legs too.

"Um, this is going to hurt the first time. I'm not gonna lie, but at least you will be able to control it from now on," he says grabbing a blanket.

"I heard a scream!" Jason bursts through the door with a bang.

"Yeah. It's happening. We will be next in a minute," Alec answers him running back over to me as my face begins to receive the sharp pain. He takes hold of my hand.

"Is that the time? Damn I lost track of it. I have to go to Cristina. Sorry to leave you but she still gets some pains." Jason answers running out the door.

"Ahh! What's happening? Someone tell me what's going on!" I beg pulling at my hair.

"Ok, just breath and listen," Alec begins, "the moon. When there is a lunar eclipse, we see the dark side of the moon. In other words, the side that gave us our wolf. So, whenever there is one, for that day we can't change back to human until the moon is gone. So, what's happening is your changing to your wolf for the first time. For the first few times it hurts, but you will get used to it until you can't feel it anymore," he says as he slowly let's go of my hand.

I look over to him and he is already back to his wolf. How come I change so damn slowly? The pain suddenly leaves and I take a breath out.

"There you go, wow," I hear his voice inside my head.

I open my eyes to see the moon and the sun setting. I look down to see the blanket he put on me. Wait a minute...that's not a blanket.

I sit up to find I can't. I roll over noticing what I thought was a blanket, is fur. From four legs to be precise. The fur isn't the same colour as my hair, unlike Alec's. Mine is white with greyish, silvery ends. I have huge claws that retract in and out. I turn around to see something different. Is there someone else in here? I see something move. I quickly turn around to see it move again. I look back to find it is a tail. I shake it around a bit getting used to it. Being a wolf feels weird. I can feel every puff of air brushing against my fur. I looked over to Alec who is sitting wagging his tail, holding a mirror in his mouth. He holds it up to me so I can see my face. I have ears that could turn 180 degrees, with silvery fur on the tips. Alec puts down the mirror.

"You look, like, umm, you, wow," he stutters in my head.

"Thanks I think," I respond, "this is weird. Can you like read my mind and stuff?" I ask.

"Because I'm next in line for alpha, I can, but no one else can, they can just talk to you telepathically. I can also sense your emotions," he laughs, or more like howls, as someone nudges the door open with their nose. A light brown wolf enters and pricks its ears up.

"Wow you changed," she states.

"Is that you Cristina?" I ask and she makes a sound that I would call a wolf laughing.

"Yeah, you look amazing," she complements.

She is a light brown with blue eyes and a soft tail. She has a blonde design on her forehead though. It looks nearly like lightning. Suddenly another wolf comes through the door. He is an urban brown also with a symbol on his forehead in light brown. It was a couple of diamonds as it looked. Both designs on each wolves aren't that obvious, but I can make out their shape.

"You look great," his face changes to something that could be classified as a smile.

"Jason?" I ask.

"Yeah it's me," he laughs and nudges Cristina on the nose.

"Come on, let me teach you a few things I think you will enjoy," Alec smiles showing the huge teeth.

He howls, lifting his head up high as the others follow suite. Soon the whole place was howling in tune. Jason and Cristina jump out the window of my room heading towards the forest.

"Coming?" Alec asked, smiling as he leaps out after them.

"Only of course," and with that, I jump.
