It's December now

Well, this weekend went better for me than I expected, not only did VT win, but my school work went fairly smoothly, i fought somethings are due until later than I expected, and I even got to have some time to spend with friends, so it went well. This is going to be an especially short post because in the mist of my studying I felt like doing a little writing as break, so I wrote a little story that I will post for all of you to read


Here it is:

-hi my name is hatch and I’m a werewolf and I’m here to tell you about my life story it all started when I was a wee little wolf much smaller than I am now, and even a little less fury. Back then I would run through the woods day and night, fleeing from the creatures bigger than I and devouring those smaller. As I grew I developed my skills, but I had a calling I didn’t notice in any other creature, a calling to the shadows, to the dark life of the unseen warrior. I was the only one who knew of this calling and I grew my powers of stealth up from within. I no longer had to flee from the creature that were larger and strong then I for they could no longer detect my presence. I no longer devoured creatures smaller than I, rather I stalked them and in the last moments of their lives I would peer into their unseeing eyes right before I sunk my sharp fangs into their soft necks and tasted the warmth of their life itself oozing into my gullet. I became a master of this trade which only I seemed to know. My confidence grew and grew until it grew beyond my actual skill. I still remember that day, I will always remember that day. As my skill grew I began stalking and feasting on the flesh of larger more powerful beasts; it was on one such day that as I was drinking in the glazed unknowing look of a truly mighty beast I felt it for the first time. The air itself became the fires of hell as it danced truth the hairs on my back. As molten even poured through the forest of my own fur my blood froze for I knew what this meant, there was one that stalked me as I stalked all others. Even as I was preparing for a glorious feast this other hinted to me not his presence but that I had already entered the final moments of my life. I knew he was there I felt him savor the fear that fell from my eyes as I planed my last seconds in this life. And then I knew what I must do. In the second that the world itself spun backwards, the second that the skilled other made the leap to his flesh that same flesh deftly responded to my command. I ducked underneath the very beast that I myself stalked as it stupidly stood there chewing the bones of some creature even more foolish than it self. I round and ran slightly as only the truly practiced can; I ran until my very blood betrayed me and became the same hellfire that now possessed the vector of my being. I collapsed, body frozen with pain, but eyes darting frantically to catch glimpse of he who had bested me. As I searched the once familiar forest with my last bit of strength the specter that haunted my last moments of existed failed to appear. Then my blood froze as I realized the truth. The hellish transformation of air and freeze in time where not warning of my enemy’s attack, they were in fact the aftermath of that strike. At that moment I feel out of conciseness into a dream world of horrid visions about a twisted and disfigure soul that wondered through a barren unwelcoming world spreading fear and unrest as he drug his grotesque form from barred window to locked gate searching all the while for…. In this moment I am once again greeted by the sun, but it is not the sun that I know, it now has more fire and less warmth. I pry open my assaulted eyes to survey the strange new world around me filled not with the familiarities of old, but instead with hard cold stone and strange unknown formations. I found this new world to be more detailed but less informative than the old, devoid of the traces that I so often used to stalk pray. Now I stood to find my connection with mother earth halved and my protective fur gone. I had become a new beast no less ferocious but much less familiar. This was the first time I had taken this fresh form and even though I have seen vast change and witnessed the start and completion of innumerable lives in the intervening time, those moments and my flight from my transformer have burn indelible images into my mind. I must find what I have become I must know why I never sleep, I must master this new life as I mastered the old….
