I looked around my surroundings. China. If I am really in China, then we really do have a serious problem. Why do I always have to mess things up? To make it worse, I'm only in a tank top and short-shorts. I'm sure glad I don't get cold easily though, but if I don't get food in me soon, bad things will happen. It's written in the history books about us. We seriously can't live without food. Its more of a necessity to Legions than any other creature on this planet. Bad, bad things will happen to me. Shit this is really bad.

Okay, so step one is to find some food that I can eat. I wonder where in this village I can find some food. I really don't want to steal, but I don't want to rip myself to pieces. Where to start looking? This particular street was filled with stands of food. People were running around selling things to each other and children were trying to play in the mud. But everyone seemed to avoid me. I was being avoided like the plague.

Was it what I was wearing? How I looked? This was all too weird. Was there something on my face? Just to check, I whipped my mouth and everyone froze. Oh shit. We all stared wide eyed at each other and everyone on the street was frozen. What the hell did I do?

"Jūntuán!!!" Some lady yelled pointing to me. I knew that word. It was Legion. shit they knew what I was.

I held my hands up in surrender, "Wǒ bùxiǎng shānghài nǐ!" I said, 'I do not wish to harm you.' in their traditional language. Yea, yea, I know what your thinking. I'm a huge geek now aren't I? Well its not my fault our father drill's different languages into our brains. After a while they just stick there.

Everyone once again froze and I let out a huge sign and repeated myself. "Wǒ bùxiǎng shānghài nǐ." this time it was barely a whisper. None of the towns people looked convinced.

Some old lady started walking towards me. She was dressed in old clothes that once could have been beautiful and vibrant. She had some wrinkles, but not many. But there was one thing that stood out from her. It was her smell. She smelt of wet dog mixed in with blood and death. She was a werewolf, that was for sure. But there was something else there.

"What are you doing here?" She spat at me. She can speak English? I didn't answer her, I honestly had no clue to why I was here. So I really couldn't answer that question. She narrowed her eyes at me, "Okay, new question, what are you looking for?"

I shrugged, "Food."

She looked around at the people and told them that I meant no harm, then she told me to follow her. It didn't feel like the right thing to do and my gut was telling me not to do it. But I was too damn hungry and if she had food, I was going to eat it. Then I could teleport out before she could harm me. Hehe, that's a great plan.

She started walking through the crowd of weary people and I slowly followed her at a safe distance. Some people tried to reach out and touch me but chickened out at the last second. I felt like some sort of weird creature. Well I kinda am. Oh stuff it brain.

She kept walking out of the little village and I hesitated slightly before stepping out of the town. the smell of death and decay just got worse and worse the more I followed her. It was staring to get unbearable. I should have just stayed with the towns people. they would have probably just been so scared of me that they would have given me anything I wanted. 

I started to slow down and I covered my hand over my mouth. my eyes were staring to water because the air was so think of just fog that could have been from decaying things around me. shit, I really shouldn't be here. I turned around and starting to run away from where ever this lady was taking me. God, I wish I could go home so badly.

"STOP!" A man's deep voice yelled, but I just kept running. I should have been close... right? Did we really walk that far away from the village? I urged my feet to go fasted. Why couldn't I hear anything yet? I should at least be able to hear them. Shouldn't I? Damn, we must have walked further than I thought.

The fog seemed to be getting thicker and thicker. Damn, am I going the wrong way? No, I couldn't be. Am I lost? "GET HER!" Another man's voice yelled. Get who? Get me? Why would they want me? Who am I to them? Run Raven run. Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming. OH SHUT UP THIS IS SERIOUS!

Urrgg!! I heard foot steps getting closer from behind me, they were loud and getting closer. God damn, where is that village? Have I passed this tree before? The person from behind me seemed to be running faster than me. They were almost caught up to me now. But I could hardly see because my eyes were watering so badly. Just don't trip and you'll be fine Raven.

I heard the man behind me laugh and the next thing I knew I was face first in the dirt. I couldn't breath because he was on top of me and because he had winded me. I could have easily beat him up right then and there. But I had a better idea. If they kidnap me, they bring me to food. I don't show them what I can do and that will give me an easy get-away.

"Silly girl, you should have flown away," The man sneered. He flipped me so I was on my back before smashing my head into the ground and I blacked out. The last thing I remember was his dark werewolf eyes. See father, this is why we don't make alliances with werewolves. It will never work. We are meant to be enemies, even in different countries.

NOOO!!!! Poor Raven!!! This just came to me in science class today and I just had to write it for all of you :D tell me what you think!!! :D
