By Lauren

I look up from the sentinel I'm keeping into the eyes of a young male wolf. He had very messy black fur and neon green eyes. Whatever he was thinking, I bet he thought I was a ghost by the way he looked at me. All of the sudden, his eyes flashed and I looked down and he looked up. Or was it still him? He looked awfully like... like... ME., a scarlet and black wolf with ice blue eyes.

My eyes pirced me. What was smell... smoke?

I slowly turned my head, or his, to see all the land behind me was filled with neon green mixed with blue fire. I had absolutely nowhere to flee. Howling didn't help me.
