Separated ('Dread' Series Book 1)

Wolf

(Shuhua's POV)

We were awoken by footsteps, again. I barely had time to even think. I was still tired from our busy schedules on earth. Now that we were here, we were still tired. But it didn't matter. Miyeon woke both me and Yuqi up.

"What is it this time?" Yuqi groaned. 

"No, listen." Although tired, we still listened carefully. This time, we realized it wasn't footsteps that we heard. It was the sound of the gushy snow. The footsteps were so light it wasn't even able to be heard. What was it? The three of us stared at each other, not knowing what to do. Just in case, we decided to silently move to the very back of the cave.

"What are we going to do?" I whispered to my unnies. Miyeon took out a long stick that she had found the day before in the cave. I'm pretty sure she was going to use it as a weapon, but how? As if Miyeon knew, an enemy appeared. A gorgeous, male wolf showed up in front of the cave. His eyes were just like the sea. Thick fur covered the wolf for warmth. It was the most beautiful wolf I've ever seen. But the question came; how were we going to leave here alive?

"AHHHHHH!" Yuqi screamed, only to anger the wolf. The wolf pounced on Miyeon, attempting to eat her. I pulled Miyeon away from the wolf, but the wolf continued to pounce on her. Yuqi used the stick from the cave and used it to stop the wolf from bitting anyone. Yuqi's face now showed anger, not fright. When it came to something or someone hurting her friends, wild and powerful Yuqi came out. Miyeon ran out of the cave, but instead, the wolf's aim changed to me. Not being able to react fast enough, the wolf bit me on the arm. Pain shocked through my entire body. Miyeon pulled the wolf away from me so that he wasn't still bitting me. Soon though, Miyeon couldn't hold back the wolf anymore. Just when the wolf was about to go and bit Yuqi, Yuqi stood up and held out her stick. She stabbed the stick in the wolf with the most strength I've ever seen. Yuqi wasn't done. She stabbed the wolf until the stick broke down. She stabbed the wolf until the wolf was unconscious. She stabbed the wolf until she fainted. I don't know if I was getting visions, but I'm pretty sure I saw a yellow glow in her eyes.

Miyeon rushed over to the unconscious wolf and stabbed it a few more times until she was sure it was dead. Then, she ran to me and cut some cloth off her shirt. She used it to wrap my bleeding arm. Miyeon, while doing this, was crying. 

"It's okay, unnie. I'm okay now." I really was. The wolf only bit a little, so I wasn't bleeding a terrible amount. I didn't even realize it, but I was crying too. She wiped the tears off my face. Then, I rested my head against her shoulder. I was tired. We completely forgot about poor Yuqi still on the floor.

"Wait! Yuqi!" Miyeon ran to her and carried her back into the cave. 

"What should we do now?" I asked. Miyeon ignored me and took off her coat to put around Yuqi. "What happened to her?" Yuqi's eyes were still glowing bright yellow. Not sure what to do next, we stayed there holding Yuqi up, otherwise, she would have plopped to the floor. Then, a yellow light shinned from her heart. No, literately. Yuqi's eye's immediately lit up, and now they were back to normal. But the light was still coming out from her heart. Suddenly, a glistening crystal appeared in Yuqi's hand. It formed from the light. The color was unsurprisingly yellow. 

"Yuqi! What...what-"

"HOLY MOLY. What just happened?" Miyeon was cut off by loud and noisy Yuqi. Still, I was glad she didn't just die. That would have been terrible.  "There was a voice talking to me. It was like...well, the voice just had a powerful, scary feeling." Miyeon and I stared at Yuqi like she was crazy. "And you know what she said?"

"Today you shall stay,

Tomorrow you shall stay.

Stay until I guide your way.

Teamwork only hurts,

Only one will stay alert.

She would be the one who is pert

No longer attending concerts."

I raised an eyebrow at Yuqi.

"What's that supposed to mean?" I asked. Yuqi shrugged and held her crystal up for us to see.

"I don't know, but where do you think this crystal came from?" This time, I shrugged.

"Yuqi, how did you memorize that whole poem?" Miyeon cared about the weirdest things...

Yes, sometimes we were like this. No one really talked about the same things. Our solution? Well, we didn't really have one. Usually, we would just stay silent due to tactlessness. But that isn't what we did this time. We were all tired and sleepy, so we just lied on the floor and went to "bed". Hopefully this time we won't be woken up by wolves.
