I ran, it was dark when I stopped, I stood panting, my legs were shaking, what was I. I spotted a stream near by, I walked up to in, I looked in and the face that stared back at me was that of a grey wolf, it couldn't be, I looked behind at me, grey fur, long flowing tail, I lifted a leg to look at it, paws, and claws, lethal claws. I licked the inside of my mouth, fangs, bone crushing fangs, this isn't real this can't be real, I bit into my leg, ow! Ow! Ow!
Yeah definitely was real! O my gosh, this is real, I'm a wolf, I can't freaking be live this, I barked and jumped up and down, I had dreams like this, I had always wanted to be a wolf, I just didn't think it was possible. But here I was, just one problem, how the heck do I change back?
And oh gosh Sammy, oh I hope Sammy didn't tell anyone. What was I thinking when I hit her!? I hope she is alright... What about the kid I bit? What was gonna happen to him... to me? Maybe they won't believe him I told myself. They'll call him crazy. I hoped I didn't run past any cameras as I fled away.
I had calmed down after I had figured out what I was, I just didn't know what was actually happening before, I took a drink from the stream, and headed back following the my scent all the way back, I took in smells, it was incredible.
So this was the actual smell of the northern Minnesotan forest, I had smelled it but never like this, this was incredible! Deer, rabbit, faint moose, pine, aspen, oak, water. I could feel a storm on the tip of my whiskers, and the deer running near by in the pads of my feet, so this is what it's like, to be free, to be a wolf.
I didn't want to go back home, but I did at the same time. What would my parents think? Was one of them a werewolf then? Are they worried? But I didn't want to go back to school, and growing up, and chores, but that was foolish thoughts. I wanted to go back to my family, my friends, and my animals that I loved.
I thought more on the subject, could this really run in the family, or was it just some lucky son of a gun gets this once in a life time chance. I figured before I totally got home, I'd have to figure out how to change back into my regular old self.
I found my way back to the school and followed the highway back home, but I didn't go right by the highway, I kept a 100ft distance, I turned down my absolutely long drive way in the country, and trotted in the ditch, it was nice that it was dark and nobody could see me, but my mom knew I was gone and she was probably freaking out and if I went in there like this it was going to make things a whole lot worse.
I cleared the distance from the yard to the house, listening inside. I could her my mom talking to my dad.
"It sure was nice of Sammy to let Gwen go to her house", my mom told my dad.
Okay good, they didn't know, but how could they not know?! Maybe I didn't hurt Sammy as bad as I thought, and she just bore with it until she got home. I wonder what she was thinking when she saw me, maybe she thought it was sort of cool, we always joked about being wolves when we were little.
It felt like I had a big load lifted off my back, my parents weren't going nuts, and Sammy didn't hate me and wasn't freaked out about me and I had time to figure out how to get back to human me. I ran to the horse barn, and good, the hay elevator was still hooked up to the loft, I climbed up the elevator and slunk in arching my back to fit through, gosh it sure was easier to fit through this as a human, that probably means I'm way bigger as a wolf than a human, and that it totally freaking awesome.
I trotted to the corner across the hay loft, the boards creaked and the horses stirred in the stalls below, one of them nickered softly probably in the hopes it was my dad to bring him a treat, but then he was still. It crossed my mind that it might work if I go to sleep and when I wake up maybe I'll be back. I climbed the loose pile in the back and nestled up in the warm straw, pretty soon my eyes were heavy and they closed and I fell into a good sleep.
