   After we killed our deer I was in my human form cleaning it, Daisy was next to me enjoying her fatty goods, while I sat and cooked some meat on the fire by the lake. Then all of a sudden Lola wanted to change, I didn't understand why at first then I smelled it. I quickly changed and  was ready for anything.
   A lone wolf came out of the woods  about 100 feet from us, it looked hungry, but we didn't want to share our kill but we didn't want to fight either. Daisy noticed the wolf as well and was ready if we needed to help.
   When it stopped and saw us it started to growl and bare it's teeth at us. I back up just a little bit, I could handle it, but I don't want to if I don't have to.  It then spots Daisy and backs away slowly and disappears. Nothing wants to fight a skunk,lol. I quickly finish our food and grab the hide and leave, not going home in case it follows us, but to hide for the night,we hate it when we get caught away from home. Daisy just went up and near by tree for the night or till it was safe to go home.
   The next morning there was no sighting of the lone wolf so we went home. I took what we could home to cook from the deer. I'll go back and get the rest later if something else doesn't get it first. But something always like the leftovers in the wild.
   Daisy and I lay down for the night after everything was cooked and eaten. Lola was on edge so we slept in wolf form tonight. I was sleeping and it's about the middle of the night when Daisy gets up and leaves.she doesn't usually leave this early but it's ok, I don't think anything of it. I fall back to sleep with Lola on alert, listening to everything.
   Then I wake up to Lola screaming at me to wake up. I do and there is a wolf in our door way. It's not the same wolf, this is a different wolf than before. This one is big and strong looking,and definitely healthy. There is no way I can fight and survive with this one. Lola is scared and wimpering in the back of my mind, so that's out of the question for help, I'm scared to.
   I back away as far as our little home will allow and cower into the wall waiting to let whatever happen, happen, I'm not saying we won't fight if need be but we are trapped. The wolf looked at us and could see that we were scared and it just walks right in and sits down. It stares at us for hours but never moves or anything.
   I keep hoping that Daisy will come home and save us but she never shows up and I can see the light through our doorway now,so it's morning. She's usually home by now.
   I'm getting hungry and can't get out to run away and find food and never come back either. But I can see is that the wolf is male and that he is big and black. He keeps looking at us like he's expecting something but I'm not sure what.
   He smells like Apple blossoms after a rainy day which is my favorite smell in the world, but it doesn't help my fear any at this moment. He never pushes to come closer or shows that he's going to move away. He just sits there.
   Finally after what seemed like forever he stands up and walks out. I wait just in case it's a trap and then inch towards the door on my belly, to only have another wolf stand in my way to freedom. This wolf is grey, and also strong looking and just as scary. I back up into my house again and go back to our wall. Lola and I don't like being trapped in our own home. This wolf isn't as scary as the first wolf and Lola is sick of being in here scared. So we growl and show our teeth, it doesn't faze this wolf at all. I lung at it, trying to make an opening to run out and disappear. It backs up just a little bit but not enough for me to get out. I lung again and again, then it finally backs away and I make my run for safety.
   I don't get far before being tackled. I turn around and bite the wolf who tackled me in the leg, before I realize it's him again. I cower away from him again but I can't get away because he is still on me pinning me down so I can't run. I look around and he's got three other wolves walking a tight  circle around us. He slowly gets off me and exits the circle and disappears behind a tree. The other wolves don't stop circling me.
   He comes out from behind the tree in his human form, fully clothed in pants and what looks like a shirt. He walks into the circle as a gap is made for him and sits down right in front of me.
