I chased him into the woods as the full moon shown. The glaze in his eyes was distracted as if he was worried about something ... and then I knew what. It was horrifying watching him go from human to beast. It looked so painful, teeth sharpening, claws protruding from the tips of his what once were hands now becoming paws. He was becoming less and less human by the second. Then it let forth an inhuman growl. This was no longer my brother. This was a true monster, bloodlust in its eyes it ran towards me. I ran, never looking back, hot tears streaming down my face. The person I loved most was trying to kill me. The nearest tree I saw I climbed and waited for dawn to come. Hours later I heard a small moan instead of a growl and, at the foot of the tree, he lay sleeping. Not wanting to wake him I climbed down and laid a light cover over him.
“I-I thought I had run you off.” He said groggily.
“Sorry to disappoint ya bro but you can chase me up a tree and all around a forest till three in the morning but you can’t run me off.” And there we sat for what felt like an eternity. Life was back to normal well as normal as my life would ever be again. I didn’t want to worry him but he had scratched me as I was climbing up the tree…
Yesterday night…
Another normal day. I was beginning to get used to things. Life was about as easy as it has ever been for me. Wake up school homework drama repeat. Eighth grade was pure torture. And yet I was passing most of my classes. *BUZZZ BUZZZ* my phone was never truly silent and it scared me. My older brother Chris was helping me with my newest story when something set me off.
"Why don’t you write about what your life is?"
"My life... my life is torture! I want something I can never have!"
"Well why not?"
"Have you ever wanted something so bad in your life that it hurt every time you thought about it?! Have you ever been in my shoes?! No, I didn’t think so!" big brothers... what a pain but you eventually learn to love each other or how to survive in the same house. He was acting kind of strange lately, sneeking out late at night, keeping a garden of purple flowers, now he is actually paying attention to me! this was something that had never happened before. I'm still in shock. *BUZZ BUZZ*
" actually i have and somewhat am..."
"what do you mean?"
"nvm just forget it."
"where are you, moms worried!"
"dont worry your pretty little head sis ill be there in ten"
"be careful"
"arent i always?"
