The moon. Beautiful and forever alive. What about the other side? The dark side? Is that side as beautiful as the other side? The moon is a lot like people. They may be beautiful and cheerful on the outside. But on the other side, there is always darkness. The darkness, no matter how small, is always trying to claw their way out of your chest. Do not underestimate the darkness within you. One day you will see the darkness be released and everything that was once beautiful and cheerful, will cease to exist. Everything will drown in darkness. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A bit of the story- I wasn't sure what to tell my mom. I was out at a party and drank a bit too much and started staggering home. I went down an alleyway that I considered a short cut. I carefully raked my nails against the rough brick so I didn't lose my balance. I looked up at the blurry stars and closed my eyes as a breeze ruffled my caramel hair. I opened my eyes slowly and gasped as I was face to face with a wolf. This wolf was nothing I've ever seen before. Its muscles rippled under its charcoal fur and it was snarling, drawing its lips back to show gleaming teeth.

I shuddered. It had never been so dark, nor so quiet before. There was always the light of the moon to guide me. The sound of the wind against the trees. I shook the thought from my mind and continued further into the wood. Then I saw it. A white light spread across the ground in front of me. The clouds had parted from where they were, revealing the moon at its fullest. I stared in awe. It had never been so bright. The ambiance began to come back. The wind began to dance with the trees. I closed my eyes. The scent of oak filled my nose and exhaled through my mouth. The aroma filled me with exhilaration. It filled me with something I couldn't explain. I felt something I hadn't felt in a long time. Although it was something I wasn't used to feeling, I craved it deeply. I felt happy. I felt as if nothing else mattered than this moment. I opened my eyes. Everything seemed clearer. I could see the particles of dust flying in the beam of light that shone around me. I wanted to stay here for longer. I wanted this moment to last forever. Until I saw the wolf. It was hidden among the fold of trees behind me. It stared at me in aggravation. It's brows furrowed in my direction. It's face, livid with anger, revealed a set of unpleasant and sharp teeth. It began to move slightly forward. The wolf bounded towards me. It happened so quickly I had no time to react. It's limbs outstretched. It's teeth bared. My body, paralyzed from fear, refused to move. My lip quivered, urged to call for help, but no help would come. I was too deep into the woods. No one would hear my screams. The thought was soon interrupted by the wolf's teeth digging into my side.
