A Wolf's Tale

21

Another long one, sorry guys! I don't want to break this chapter up, you'll understand why in a bit ;)

What do I do? I... I don't know what to do. I can't do this. I can't do this alone. They are all dead. I don't know what to do. Do I call Kyle? He's gonna be pissed at me! Holy fuck what do I do? It's just me... oh my fuck it's just me! I'd be a terrible Alpha, I can't do this, I can't think straight.

I'm the only one conscious enough to do something and I don't know what to do. I can't call the police because Ashley is dust on the ground and how do you prosecute a dust pile over killing some kids. She supposedly died a long time ago so DNA will come back from like one hundred years ago and they'll come around here asking even more questions.

I can't call Kendall because she just had the baby and I don't want to spring this on her. I can't call Kylie or Kyle because they are on their honeymoon and they are so happy to finally have some normalcy. I don't have anyone else to call because no one would understand except for the people I just dragged out of the Goddamn pool. Who are currently not breathing! Fucking hell, I have no idea what I'm going to do! Fuck!

Kid, listen to me... you can do this. You thought to take them out of the water so it's a start. You are not alone, you have me, okay? Now, you need to snap out of this and calm down. Get up. Start CPR, stop the bleeding, and move on to the next person. Don't piss around trying to wake them up, you can go back to them later. But by the looks of it they've been under a while so you'd better get to it. If you don't have the strength I can take over and help them, I don't mind.

You're right. I can do this. I can save my dead friends... I just need to take a breath and get to it. I appreciate the offer but this is something I need to do myself.

I run around the pool deck and drop down to Sierra. Stab wounds have been stamped in her chest along with claw marks on her throat.

I begin CPR on Sierra's soaked, pale, and lifeless body. Her body sways and her dress sticks to my hands every time I push on her cold chest. Oh my God, please wake up.

"Please no, baby please breathe, I'm here now, babe come on, please, I can't do this without you." 

I stop as the knife moves with every movement I make, the pain quickly becomes unbearable. Tears rush down my face as I push two fingers onto my wound. I sit back and pace myself. I don't get it, why am I not healing?

Okay, take a quick break and focus on healing. I won't say they can wait but think about it this way... if you don't heal you will bleed out, if you bleed out, no one will help them. Just take a second to heal then get back go helping them.

I can't let them sit here while I heal. We don't know how long it will take for me to heal. They don't have that kind of time. We don't even know how long they have been underwater. I can help them, I just need to take it easy.

Kid, listen to me. You have a concussion and are bleeding and not to mention the fact you almost drowned. Take a short break.

I'm good. I can do this.

"Babe, please..." I continue CPR again before pausing. It isn't working... why isn't it working?

Wait... what if I try mouth-to-mouth? I tilt her chin upward, pinch her adorable nose, and exhale into her mouth. I repeat this a few times along with listening for a heartbeat before sitting back and impatiently waiting.

Water quickly rushes out of Sierra's mouth as her eyes flutter open. Her eyes pop open as a coughing fit begins. She draws in a pained gasp before continuing to cough.

Her nails dig into my forearm like her life depends on it. I grab my shirt from the edge of the pool and push it against her chest.

"Baby, relax. I'm here but I have to go and help the others, okay?" I place her hand on my bunched up shirt. "Can you hold this on your chest for me?" She gently pushes the cloth down. "That's my girl. I have to help the others, Ashley is dead, okay? I'll be back." I explain before kissing her forehead and getting up.
