How It All Began: The Pack

It screeched in the air hovering for a few second before diving back down to the ground and I chased after it following the red aura he left as a trail.

I weaved in and out of the trees, tripping on a tree root giving it an advantage but I kept in pace with it until I saw it's shadows spread it's wings and gain speed.

I saw his outline but it was too dark to see exactly what he was. Definitely male...His tail whipped around as he flew around, dodging whatever trees were in his path.

He stopped and landed as a running stop going down on all fours like an animal but he looked human...I watched fascinated as he set himself on fire and curled into a ball about to go to sleep

until he sniffed the air and his eyes snapped open looking right at me. He got up, extinguishing the flames and bounded towards me, standing on two legs becoming the same height as me.

His wings folded and hid behind his back while his tail stayed curled by his side. My eyes went wide as he pulled me downwards into a sitting position and he sat down next to me.

He put his hands through my hair playing with it as if my hair was a toy and poked at my clothing confused.

He pressed a hand against my cheek and slowly stroked my cheek with his thumb but bolted up in a flash when a loud noise echoed through the forest......a gunshot....

His eyes went wide and he whippped around in a circle his ears flatteningmaking his horns looked evil and he hissed warning he was dangerous.

He whipped his tail around me and pulled me closer to him until I was holding his hand which made me blush.

The feeling of his presence was gone after but one word was clawed into the ground spelt in sage....Preston...

I saw his outline dashing away his fiery eyes disappearing from my point of view and I tried chasing after him sprinting as fast as I could but I wasn't fast enough..He was really running...

It kept fading rapidly and soon I couldn't see it anymore but a gunshot silenced the whole area giving me an eerie, nervous feeling...

I looked around picking up my pace as I felt like I was being watched when I saw a clearing over some bushes.

I ripped through the bushes shouting, biting my tongue but froze in the middle of my tempertantrum when I saw a boy around my age staring at me weirdly and I put my cap back on, cooling down.

~Timeskip to after they introduce themselves because you already read this bwah bwah butter!~

I walked away talking "....Maybe we could be friends...Maybe the demon would come back...But it was so young...

Well not so young since he's the same age as me but what if he turns hostile! That would be scary!" I gasped at the thought of the evil creature when his name flashed in my mind..

Preston......
