Once in a Blood Moon

Chapter 3: Gone

I run outside, holding the white cake box. "Jack!" I yell as I head into the forest. "What is the meaning of this?!" I growl as I get no response. I go to the edge of the cliff and throw the cake into the vast sea of pain and misery. Going back to the academy, I ask everyone where Jack is, even his pup friends. Nobody knows. He has just vanished...I go to the headmistress and demand answers but nobody knows where Jack Goro Radcliffe went or what happened to him. A sudden surge of worry comes over me. Did I upset him too much? Will I ever see him again? But the most troubling question was... Who is this cake really from? So many questions but so little answers.

It has been one week, I have skipped all my classes staying at the cliff, just searching and waiting for any clues to pop up. Tonight feels different for some reason, it is strange. I hear howling in the distance, not a wolf's and not from the academy. "Ugh... here we go." I turn around and see a slender being in the distance. A werewolf..lady? She has a long silver tail, as all her fur is a bright silver color. "So...are you related to Jack by any chance?" Before I can breathe another word she lunges at me and grips my throat, piercing it with her claws. "Oh...I see how we're going to play this." I grab her wrist and rip it off her arm. "That will leave a nasty stub my dear... unless you tell me where Jack is." "Give me back my hand!" "I WILL SHOVE IT UP YOUR ASS IF YOU DO NOT TELL ME WHERE HE IS IN THE NEXT 5 SECONDS!" My roar echoes throughout the forest. She whimpers. "After we learned that he has been associating with you... we brought him down to the Blood Caves to beat some sense into him." "Well, I guess those caves will live up to their name." I rip off her head and hold it over my face as I drink the blood dripping into my mouth from her throat and spine. "How messy..." I take a running start and jump off the cliff. Take me water, to the place where blood spills in tears and fears. I wake up in a cave and wipe my face from any blood. I walk down a path lit with torches until I hear faint grunting and whipping. As soon as I get there, I see Jack hanging off the ceiling and being whipped, clenching his teeth from the pain. "Party is over people, get your hands off of the puppy." He looks at me weakly and chuckles lightly, coughing up some blood. I dim out all of the torches and tear out the hearts of anyone who opposes me. The torches light back on and I walk to him, tearing him down from the chains. "Why..?" "We will talk later darling, let's just get you home now. Just please don't disappear like that again, I thought you were gone..." He looks at me, a little surprised at what I said. "Roger..."
