master.

Walking up to the river he looked down at the fish but somehow something seemed different and as he looked down at the fish he felt a feeling inside as though something wasn’t right it was a strange instinct that something wasn’t right. Stepping in to the water he watched the fish but they seemed normal and they didn’t look dangerous or different. Taking one out of the water he quickly walked back to the bank and sat down and began to eat it but suddenly he spat out what he was eating as his whole mouth had begun to burn like a fire had erupted inside him.

Jumping over to the water he quickly began to lap up the cool crisp water to try and make the horrible burning feeling stop as it spread all throughout his mouth like a wildfire. He didn’t stop drinking the cool water until the burning sensation began to ease before slowly stopping altogether. He turned away taking deep breaths feeling as though he was about to explode because he had drank way to much water.

Frowning at himself he looked over at the fish which looked absolutely normal but as he slowly walked forward he noticed that its eyes were bright green, gasping he stepped back a few paces as he remembered the nightmare he had had. Looking back at the river he quickly turned around and began to run along the bank as fast as he could and as he ran he could see that all the fish had the same green eyes that seemed to be staring at him from every single angle.

Aryan ran till he physically couldn’t run anymore and when he finally stopped he looked ahead of him where the forest and river continued into the distance, it was as though it was never-ending, he was never going to make it on his own especially now without food, things were just getting worse and worse and he now wished he did what the cat had told him to.

That night when the stars finally appeared in sky Aryan laid down looking up at them as he tried to remember the loving faces of his family before he had been taken. He shivered inside when he realized that he couldn’t even remember his mothers face or even the sound of her voice all he could remember was her being there and his brothers and sister all cuddled up beside him in the den, it was so peaceful and warm there. Aryan never saw his father whom was always to busy running the pack as the Alpha male but he knew his scent and he could have sworn he could smell them back at the den like they had been their only days earlier.

Looking behind him he sighed because the den now was so far away that it might as well be forgotten because he knew the life he wanted had was gone and escaped his grasp. Closing his eyes Aryan could feel the sadness swelling up inside but he kept any tears from falling down his face as he thought how alone and scared he was, everything was gone and the realization he wasn’t going to find anyone hit him hard as a silver tear slowly slide down his face.

During the night when Aryan was asleep he started moving his legs as though his dream was real because there were green-glowing eyes all around him and no matter how fast or far he ran they were always behind him getting closer and closer till…snapping awake Aryan could feel himself sweating as he sat up and looked around as though expecting the dream to be real but thankfully it wasn’t. Laughing a little about how he was scaring himself he looked into the distance were he was going wondering whether or not the horrible green eyes were any relation to the green eyes that the fish had? Aryan quickly shook his head guessing that the fish were just sick and that he was just scaring himself even more.

The next morning a stir in the nearby woods made Aryan slowly wake up but he wasn’t as alarmed as he had been the night before because he thought that he must be dreaming again. Turning around he looked into the shadows with his eyes barely open but when he saw two green eyes looking at him he gasped before jumping up.

‘Mother…?’ Aryan said with hope as he took a step forward quickly realizing the thing was too big to be a wolf. Just before Aryan could say anything the creature turned around and began to run off in the opposite direction. ‘Stop…!’ He suddenly yelled running after it but by the time he had taken a few steps it was completely gone and he quickly stopped and sighed, ‘…wait.’

Shivering to himself Aryan felt himself go pale as he looked after the thing knowing that what ever it was it wasn’t a wolf but it was something alive in this completely empty area and this was enough for Aryan to go find it. As he slowly walked after it the warning the cat had given him began to play in his mind but he just ignored it and kept walking.

Part 4
What ever that thing had been it had left not even a single mark on the ground as it had ran and so it was impossible to follow its exact course. But Aryan knew if he just kept walking he should be able to pick up it’s track and ignore his growing hunger.

He walked for at least two days but with each growing day his eyelids felt heavier and heavier and it wasn’t until he found a small lake that he managed to find some fish that didn’t have the strange green eyes. Aryan was sure he’d eaten the entire lake empty of all it’s fish but now he felt stronger and he knew that he was getting close to where ever that creature went because the further he walked the more he could swear something was watching him.

One day when Aryan was just walking blindly with his mind a blank he felt something shine into his eyes making him try to move aside thinking that the sun had just peaked through the overgrowth in the leaves right in to his eyes.

Frowning Aryan looked into the light realizing that no matter where he moved it kept following him. Suddenly he realized that the light wasn’t coming from the sky, it was coming from something in the distance. His mouth moved into a smile as he felt his legs pushing him forward into a run as he ran across the ground like lightning ignoring everything as he ran towards the light knowing he had found something after so long.

As he got closer and closer the light just seemed to get brighter until finally he burst through some small bushes and instantly skidded to a halt before catching his breath and looking at what was standing before him. In front of him was a huge fence crossed with thin straps of silver that were reflecting the light and it was then when Aryan started to panic, he couldn’t go back to the men he wouldn’t let them take him again he thought as he started to edge backwards away from the fence until he heard something which made him stop and peer through the fence.

Gasping he saw at least five pairs of green eyes staring at him and in a panic he turned around and started to run without looking behind him as he did, he was just imaging this, he was going crazy he thought as he ran. Suddenly he heard the sound of a howl, a wolf howl which made him slowly stop and look behind him, the howl was one of sorrow, terror and pain. He could feel something inside that was making him sick as he looked down at the ground the howl echoing in his ears and he knew that who ever was howling had to be in trouble. Those creatures maybe the humans had captured them to and all the other animals?

Aryan could feel himself shaking at the thought of man as he turned around and looked back where he had come from, he had been alone in the mans world for so long he knew what ti was like to live alone and in captivity and how could he just stand by and allow the entire forest to be held captive by the men? Breathing in and out deeply he closed his eyes as he forced himself to turn around and face his fears head on. Sitting down he kept looking to where he had come from and the glowing light from the fence shone in his face. He was going to wait till dark to investigate further if they had his family then he knew that he’d make sure they’d escape back home with him, or he’d die trying.

Day soon turned to dusk and dusk soon turned to night and still Aryan didn’t move as he sat their waiting and watching. He kept pondering in his mind whether or not to go now or wait awhile to have a look. The thoughts in his mind were playing with his emotions making him feel more scared then he actually was. Calming himself down he stood up and was about to step forward when he saw a green flash in front of him but before he even had to breath he looked up at something standing in front of him.

The creature looked like a wolf except is was bigger then Aryan, had larger teeth that stuck out of it’s mouth and hair that was long and shaggy, it had large ears and huge paws, a long tail and glowing green eyes. Aryan couldn’t move as he looked up at the creature who looked down at him with an expressionless face.

‘Hello…?’ Aryan said looking up at the wolf who just sniffed him as though picking up his scent.

‘You just greeted me.’ The wolf said moving his head slightly.

‘Yes.’ Aryan said nodding looking confused. ‘Who are you?’ He continued guessing that this wolf like creature didn’t seem like a threat and maybe it had already escaped form the man.

‘We are the Vereor we live to abide by the laws of our Pack.’ The wolf said still not looking down at Aryan but
