Impulses

Alana

My shoulder hurt, like crazy. The throbbing is the first thing I feel as I wake up from an apparent deep sleep. I try to get up but the roaring pain that shoots through my right shoulder forces me to slump back into the bed. Slowly memories of what happened come flashing through my head. Joey and I on the bike and the wolves, how it almost killed me and how big that wolf was the black one. I have yet to see many werewolves shift.  But this one was too big twice as big as any of the other wolves. Someone barged in pulling me out my though bubble. It was Maria and her Nana.

"Oh, darling you are up! thank the goddess" Nana exclaimed as Maria sat at the foot of the bed.  "Yea where am I," I asked not bothering to say hi it didn't seem to matter

Maria was the one to talk " Joey brought you here it was the closest to the place of your attack. You are at the packhouse. Nana bandaged up your wounds and cleaned them. You scared the shit out of us sis" she said and pulled my big toe.

I scolded her and pulled my feet up " where is Joey ..um how is he ?" I said trying to get up again but my shoulder prevented me from doing so again.

"Oh no, no lovely do not put force on your arm. It will make the next steps hurt more." Nana said I almost forgot she was there.

"What next steps?" I looked at Maria for answers Nana kept humming and completely ignored my question. I kicked maria when she didn't answer.

I looked over to Nana who was mixing a whole bunch of liquids. "What is that?" I said when the room started to smell like rotten eggs. 

" The solution to your pain sweetheart. " Nana smiled and started walking to me with a tiny vital filled with a crimson liquid.

"This is a potion the Alpha asked me to whip up for you," She said in a jolly tone examining the liquid. " He has some words for you and needs you one hundred present healed this is going to speed up that process."

" oh, Do I have to drink this? " I asked hoping it would be done quickly. But when Nana shook her head no I started to get worried. 

" Oh darling I am afraid it is much more painful than that," she said shaking the bottle and walking to the edge of my bed " Maria help her sit up please," she said calmly. 

" what are you going to do " My heart dropped and sweat began coming from my pits.

" We are going to heal you," Maria said and pulled me on a sitting potion.  Nana pulled out a needle and filled it with the crimson liquid.

" Oh my god " I squealed when I realized the needle was bigger than the bottle.      " Is that blood !"

What kind of voodoo shit were these wolves going  to do to me?

" Some of it is, the rest is some herbs and natural oils" Nana replied tapping the needle.

Before I realized what was happening Maria ripped the bandage off my shoulder wound and Nana shoved the needle in the wound and squeezed the liquid into my wound.

An agonizing shriek came from me, the most agonizing pain ran through me. I had never felt something so painful in my entire life my eyes watered and Heat took over my skin I felt my skin pulling itself together. Tears streamed down my cheeks and my ears were ringing. There was sweat dripping from every pore in my body. I felt my body thrash but the pounding in my ear was so loud I could not tell if I was yelling or not. Maria was saying something but her words were incoherent.  My breathing began coming out in pants. The pain just would not stop, black dots covered my vision right when I thought I was going to pass out it just stopped.

As if it was never there. I blinked away a few stray tears.
At the sound of my name, I looked up to see Maria hovering over me.
Her mouth was moving slowly but I can't hear a thing.
Things were happening so slow.
