 I was running and running, no matter how fast I was running I could hear the crunch of the leaves under their paws, so I pushed myself, I went faster and faster till I couldn't hear the crunch of leaves. My wolf was exhausted, she wasn't used to running this fast and all, this was the third time I have let her out, after all. I saw a clearing up ahead and went towards it to get a drink of water. I tried mind linking my pack, anyone, but got nothing. They're all gone, everyone, I can still hear the screams of my mother as she watched my father get ripped limb from limb, I can still remember the memory of my mother telling my older sister to protect me while she fights off the others, telling us that she would be right back, and I can still remember my older sister and I hid in the closet waiting for our mother to return but she never did instead a rogue did, my sister, Ellie, told me to run, to never look back and that she loves me, her scream was the last thing I could hear when I shifted into my still new wolf and ran as fast as I could run, which isn't that fast either, but I tried my best.


That was 5 years ago that I lost my friends, my family, my home, but I still remember like it was yesterday. That day still haunts me in my dreams or more like nightmares. That was the day that I become the one thing that murdered my family, a rogue. Ever since then, I had to take care of myself, I was 11 when that happened, I'm 16 now and still taking care of myself. That night I ran to the town about 10 miles away from home and found a little diner in the middle of the town called "Daisy's Dinner", the owner, Daisy, was a nice older lady that took me to social services to place me in foster care since I didn't have a family, she would have taken me in herself but she was an older, older lady, like the mid '60s and couldn't look over herself that much, so she couldn't look over an 11-year-old kid either, but she still promised to keep in touch which she did, she was like a second mother to me since she didn't have any kids herself and Dan her husband was also like a second dad to me, he was in his early 70's. I went into the system and bounced from house to house, some good, some bad, my latest one not good but not bad either. They don't care what I do as long as they get there to check in the mail and don't ruin their precious name.


When I was 13 years old is Daisy offered me job at the dinner as a dishwasher, at first I was pretty hesitant about it but then I remembered that I need money for things like clothes and stuff like that because most of the foster parents didn't give me shit besides a room and a bathroom, I had to buy all the shit I have. When I was 14, she let me start waitressing, again, I was hesitant because I don't talk to anyone besides Dan and Daisy, I'm very shy and antisocial person, but she told me I get tips plus the money I usually get, so I did it and to be honest it isn't that bad, most of the people I serve are nice and tip nicely too. A couple of times a month I let my wolf out to run since there is a forest not that far from here, but I make sure she doesn't run into anyone territories, since I'm a rogue they would kill me, immediately, at least that was what I was told. Well, that is me, Kierra Phillips, a 16-year-old girl alone girl, a rogue, a lone wolf, someone with no family, someone that has to finned for herself, someone that has no one. That's all about to change for me, soon, very soon.
