Teen Wolf :- A Wolf's Journey.

As I asked her that, her body stiffened like a rock and she looked away from me. I could help but feel bad about asking her about this. I should have waited a little before and let her talk about it… I looked ahead and said, "Sorry, I shouldn't have asked…"

She didn't want to talk about it and who would blame her. It was the most tragic experience of her life and remembering it would bring pain to her but it is also important… if her family is out there somewhere she should at least meet them.

"It happened when I was 8…" I looked at her. She didn't look at me, she couldn't, but I saw a tear trickle down her face, her voice was soft and meak… yet I heard it perfectly.

I shook my head and said, "You don't have to…" but she cut me off and turned towards me and said, "No, you should know… of all people you should know."

I nodded and she continued. As I heard her story I realised there are more of me and her in this world. Broken and cursed by this nature of ours. I found solace with her. When we finally reached the house, I said, "I… Thank you for telling me all this."

She looked at me and shook her head and said, "Thank you." I was confused and I tilted my head slightly and she said, "I was alone for all those years… and finally I am not…" She slowly leaned in closer and she put her soft lips on mine and kissed me, "So, thank you… Lucius." She said that got out of the car.

I was stunned, I just sat there in my car for a while trying to collect myself. I felt happy yet a part of me was just stuck… thinking what happened was not quite right… I shook my head and parked my car in the driveway and got out of it. As I was walking to the front door I caught a familiar scent. "We need to talk." It was coming from the forest. I recognised the smell, it was of Derek.

But what is he doing here? And what does he want to talk about? I sighed and walked into the forest. I followed his scent and followed it. The scent was coming from deep in the woods. It was quite a walk but the fallen leaves on the ground and the cold air kinda made it pleasant enough to walk.

When I reached him I found him sitting on a trunk of a fallen tree and he seemed to have changed. He seemed more powerful than before. But being honest it just didn't fit well with him. I stopped in front of him and asked, "What are you doing here lurking in the forest?"

He exhaled and got off the trunk and said, "We need to talk."

"About what?" I opened the pack of cigarettes and lit one. He said, "I know you are new to the game and I don't know how it's possible that a hunter has a werewolf kid but I am pretty sure she hasn't told you anything about the hunters."

I nodded and said, "She has told me enough to know that I should keep a low profile."

He chuckled and said, "Won't do much… hunters are like a very tight knit group of boy scouts… murderous boy scouts. And we have messed with the wrong family… they will bring back up… You can try and hide but they will sniff you out…" He looked at me and said, "A wolf like you is a rare find and they will hunt for you."

I knew this was bound to happen but didn't realise that it would happen this soon. I asked, "That may be but you are also a prize. Alpha of the Hale family… huh?" He hummed and I asked him, "So what do you suggest we do?"

He looked at me and said, "I know that you are not going to join my pack… so what I am offering is that we have an alliance… if we have eachothers back no hunter would dare move against us… you can continue your normal life… if anyone of gets in deep shit the other one shows up… it's perfect."

I looked at him and asked, "You don't have a pack…" His eyes glowed red and he said, "Yet." I thought about it and found that it is beneficial to both of us… I accepted his offer and reached out my hand to him and he shook it. He was about to take it back but I held on, his eyes glowed red and mine became purple. We stared at each other and I said, "Don't cross me… Derek. It didn't go too well for Peter." He nodded and I let go of his hand and he nodded and walked away.

I sighed and threw my cigarette away and walked back home. I opened the door and I saw mom at the door and she asked, "How was it?" She had a grin on her face which tells me that Malia might have said something about what happened earlier and I said, "It was a pleasant evening… I had fun."

She pouted and said, "Why do you always do this? I was having fun."

I chuckled and said, "I am sorry for ruining your fun… but I need to get some sleep. I am tired."

She smiled and nodded. She grabbed my tie and pulled me down and said in a serious tone, "Don't screw this up… Lucius… am I clear?"

I hummed and said, "Crystal."

She smiled and said, "Good." She then kissed my forehead and said, "Now go and get some rest." She let go of my tie and I walked away.

I reached my room and I removed my clothes and crashed on my bed. Laying on my bed, I thought about today. It was a fun day without any supernatural bull crap cramping down on my life. It was one of those rare days… I just wished there were more of them. I closed my eyes and went to sleep.

But something odd happened… As I closed my eyes… I was suddenly not in my room but I was in front of my old house. I looked around and it was my same old house but it wasn't quite right. It looked a little odd.

The house was surrounded by tall dead trees and water was leaking out of the walls, doors and windows. I had an eerie feeling about it, this seems like one of those dreams but this is too real. I walked towards the door and my hand hovered over the handle. I didn't want to enter the house but then I heard it. The crack of a belt followed by screams. I was frozen in my place. I wanted to move but it felt like someone had poured concrete on them.

I wanted to move but I couldn't. That's when I heard, "Pathetic…" I felt a shiver run down my spine. It was like a primal fear. I looked around and I found no one yet I heard a voice. It was deep and gravel-like… and I heard it again, "You are weak."

I looked around and asked, "Who is this? Who are you?!"

The voice became angry and said, "Do not raise your voice… BOY!" The power of the voice was alone enough to make me bend my knees. The voice spoke again, "You are pathetic and weak… still shackled by your past… Will you let it haunt you for the rest of your miserable life?" I could answer him and he disappointedly grunted and said, "You are not worthy of the gift…"

I gritted my teeth and asked, "What gift?!" And as I asked the question it let out a laugh and I was able to move. I looked and I found it sitting on top of a dead oak tree. It looked more human than a wolf. Its face and claws were drenched in blood and chunks of flesh. It looked at me and said, "The gift of the hunt."

Its silver eyes were dead set on me and it looked at me like I was the prey and maybe I was. He climbed down the tree and said, "Worship me MALAR! as your god and you shall be free of these shackles and then and only then you will become what you are meant to be…"

As he asked me to worship it, the pressure from before was gone. It offered me its hand and I wanted to take it. But I knew that this was not it. This was not the answer. I slapped his hands away and he looked at me and said, "Not so pathetic after all huh?" He then raised his hands, his claws extended.

But suddenly a pack of wolves came and they chased him out of here. They were the same ones that I always see during the full moon. As soon as they chased Malar away the dream broke and I was again in my room. I got up and said, "These things are getting out of hand now."
