Chapter 18 - you don't care

The Circle Of Rings - Chapter 18

Olive Locke

Pearl and I were pearched up on a tree as Owl's watching the mess inside the pack house. It's very entertaining. Better than any reality show I've ever seen. Pearl agrees with me. To sum up what has happened in the lat half hour, my mom has not stopped crying. Raymond and Clyde are pissed and Raymonds parents are confused. Well my dad is confused too. No one had any clue that my mom was a soul shifter. Not even my dad. He feels betrayed. At least my mate knows what I am.

"why didn't you tell me Michelle?" My dad screamed.

She sobbed, "I didn't find a need to. the only other form I learned was a chickadee. It wasn't that important."

"Not important?" He yelled egasperated, "It is when it applys to one of our children."

I swoped down into the house as fast as I could, "Whoa there." I said after I had shifted back. By the way, I'm not naked its weird the only time I ever lost my clothes during a shift was my first. Everyone noticed this and they were surprised.

"You are not my parents. You lost that right when you shipped me away."

My dad stomped over to me, "How dare you say that." He pointed his finger at me, "We gave you everything you ever wanted."

I laughed, "Yea right. Did you even really know what I wanted?" I pointed my finger at him, "I didn't want a phone or a laptop. To be honest I could have lived without all that. All I wanted was for my family to support me. You couldn't do that. So therefore, you are not my family. Well with the exception of Clyde."

Clyde's face lit up. "Really?"

"What about me," Raymond asked. He sounded so heart broken.

"We," I signaled between the two of us. "Have a different kind of relationship." I paused, "That we need to sort out."

My dad growled, "You can't have an alpha mate. You're too weak."

I started to laugh but it was cut off by my dad throwing me out of the house. I hit a tree and slid down it with my back gathering many slivers on the way down. I hit the ground with a big THUD. I groaned as Pearl ran over to me. "You okay?" she asked.

I took in a deep breath, "Help me up."

She grabbed my hand and hoisted me up. I took a deep breath and narrowed my eyes at the man I used to call dad, "Bring it on old man." Nobody but me knew what would hapeen next. Raymond wasn't even fast enough to get in the way. I didn't want him to either. The angry man in front of me lept towards me and shifted into his wolf. At the last second I dove to the right and got just out of the way of his sharp teeth that wanted to tear me to pieces.

I smirked at him, "You've lost your touch. Just give up before you throw out your back or something."

He lunged towards me and I doged him like it was nothing. Pearl helped Clyde hold back Raymond who's eyes were now black. They knew that this fight was between him and I and no one was to interfear. I looked at my former father in discust while he lunged at me a few more times. Each time I doged him.

I took one second to look at Raymond and that was probably my mistake. I found myself on my back with large teeth snapping at my face while I tried to hold him back. "You're breath stinks!" I shouted before shifting into my snake form and quickly slithering away. Snakes are actually quite fast. I shifted into a wolf and turned around to face him. He was looking a bit lost as to where I went so I growled at him. His head snapped around to my direction and I let out a little wolfy laugh at his expression. He didn't recognize me at first, which was great.

I shifted back to human form just to show him who it was, "Come on Howard, is that all you got?" Then I let him charge at me before I shifted into my bear and he slammed into me. He fell over while I only had to take a step back from the force. When he stood up he looked at me with shock before I roared at him as loud as I could. He didn't back down so I stood up onto my back legs and roared even louder.

His ears went back into a submissive position and his head lowered slightly showing that I was seperior to him. Which in my case, I was. I didn't notice till now but we had gathered a crowd. A very big crowd that consisted od the pack. I stood back on all fours as Howard ran back over to our house. Peal came running over to me, "You're really good at this stuff."

I smirked still in my bear form and nodded towards her. 'It takes lots of practice.' I told her through the mind link. Raymond and Clyde slowly walked over to me. Fredrick ran over to them and stood in their way.

"What do you want Fredrick?" Clyde asked because Raymonds eyes were still on me.

"It's a wild bear! It's going to eat you!" He yelled.

I started to laugh  and fell onto the ground. Pearl was laughing beside me. Ah Fredrick, such a jokester you are. I stood back up and smiled at him before shifting back into my human form, "Well its nice to see you too Fredrick." I laughed.
