Call of The Inner Wolf

Chapter 5

When I saw the house it wasn't that big but it did look nice on the outside. There was a light on in the house and I saw a shadow by the window.

"That's probably Gray waiting for me," Ash said.

"Who's Gray?" I asked

"He is like you someone who I have to protect and keep safe from those people," said Ash.

"Are there anymore people here?"

"Yes, there's me and you," he laughed at that, even tho I didn't find it funny but I laughed any way. when I got out of the van it was ice cold out side and I didn't have a jacket on.

"Here talk this before you get a cold," Ash said as he handed me his sweater. it was a bit to big but at least it was keeping me warm. I got up to the door and it opened up and Gray was standing there holding it for me.

"You must be Kizzy, I'm Gray but Ash probably told you already," he said putting his hand on his head. I looked at him and he had black hair and yellow green eyes. Out of all the people that I knew in the orphanage I have never seen those colour of eyes.

I walked into the house and it smelt of dog.

"Do you guys have a dog?" I asked them both. But before they could answer a big wolf like dog came from the hall way that I was facing.when the dog came closer I got a clearer look at it. It was a husky mixed with wolf, his fur was white with specks of silver.

"His name is Cujo, not because he kills people but because of how big he is," Gray told me.

"Kizzy have a seat we have to tell you some stuff that you should know," Ash said pointing to a chair.

"What do we have to talk about?"

"We have to talk about why you were there," he said.

"I was put there because my parents died when they went out for their date," I told him.

"Do you know how they died?" He asked me.

"No."

"Your parents weren't going on a date Kizzy they only said that because they loved you and didn't what you to know they weren't coming back. They went to see a guy who makes deals," he said

"What kind of deals?" I asked sounding worried.

"There is no other way to explain this but when a werewolf gives birth to a child and someone gives you a deal to keep that child safe they give you a certain amount of time. For your parents it was four years."

"So what your saying is that I'm a werewolf and my parents died because of some dealer killed them, huh and why am I supposed to believe you I don't even know you," I said raising my voice a little.

"You don't know me because your father wanted me to find the guy and kill him so they could stay with you forever," he said sounding in pain. "Kizzy you may not know me but we are family, I'm your uncle and I failed to keep your family safe but I saved you that's all that mattered to your parents," he said to me.

I looked at him but I didn't say anything. all I did was made I contact.

"Did my parents want me in that orphanage?" I asked him.

"That place wasn't and orphanage, trust me I was there for a few years then Ash came to save me," Gray told me.

"Then what is it?"

"It's a place where werewolves kids go when their parents are gone. So everyone you knew there is a werewolf and they let Jane go to that couples house because they wanted to test how they would react when a full moon came and what would happen if they transformed. But the experiment failed and they had to kill her because if someone kills they have to be killed so they won't do it again," Ash explained to me. Even though I still don't understand how I didn't know about my family.

"So my friend is dead because those people think if you do something bad you have to die for it. That doesn't make sense. Does anyone in there know their a werewolf or do they have to suffer like Jane did," I said to them almost starting to cry to the name of my best friend knowing that she could be dead now when it should be me in there and not her. "So when you transform do you sweat a lot cause I woke up on a day when the full moon was up and my bed was covered in sweat," I told them and I was scared to know the answer.

"Yes, but you didn't fully transform into your wolf body you only got the first stage of it, the sweating part, which is easy to deal with them when the time comes where you have to fully transform that's when you will feel the real pain. But after a while you will get used to it," Ash said trying to make it sound so much better than it should be. "You should go upstairs and get some rest and we will talk more tomorrow okay," Ash told me as he pointed to the stairs where I have to go. He said that my room was on the right side the second door.

I went upstairs be my bedroom and looked around. I had a big bed that was twice the size as the one at that other place and a lot more comfortable. I lied down on the bed and looked up at the ceiling and drifted off to sleep.
