Overcoming

Acting on prejudice and hatred I create a disaster of epic proportions. First I exist in disbelief, then self doubt. Learning to respect all maybe the only way to save the world.

In the werewolf world soulmates don't often choose to be together. The magic drawing us towards each other is dying, but after my actions force my soulmate Lucas and I together, well, lets just say things don't go according to plan.

Lucas is our pack's next Alpha, and an alpha's mate is usually chosen politically. We were not meant to be together no matter what the magic says. Now, with disaster rising the two of us together must work to bring peace between us and the vampires.

Oh, and stop the zombie horde I accidentally raised.

"Who are you?" Bruce asks.
"I am the first. I came before vampires. I came before werewolves. I came before humans. Humans are my dream, just as you are theirs." The old one walked to a downed chair and righted it before sitting down. "Do you know what that means?"
No one says a word. What is there to say? We're all lost.
"It means that humans exist because I will it. You exist because the humans will it. They made up stories of vampires, fairies, werewolves, and mermaids. They wanted you enough that you came to pass. Lately zombie movies seem to be all the rage. So now there are zombies."
"The humans didn't create us they aren't magic," A councilman says.
"They are so. They have the power of creation in their grasp. Dreams become reality if enough of them want it bad enough. I should know I added that creative bit."
"Who created you?"
"Where did the universe begin? How did it begin? You can study the reality of matter and find that out. The question is why did it begin." The old one shifted in their seat looking about the room. "No one knows. Not even me. Maybe I'm someone else's dream. Maybe it continues on like that forever."
