A soft yellow glow lit the clearing up as bones ached as they went into a more horizontal position. Fur grew on my body and heat instantly banished the cold.

Five seconds, that's all it takes.

I grin, close my eyes and take in my landscape.

No wind whistled through the trees. A cold tinge floated on all there is. A wolf howl in the distance, alerting its pack there was no danger. My pack; The very same pack that had lived in these woods for hundreds of years.

I slowly walked forward, differently, taking in the soft, white blanket.

Silly humans.

While they stay in their nice, warm houses, caring about refinery and their silly, short lives, us werewolves are out hunting and enjoying the earth given to us.

Snow starts to fall, very lightly, so I decide that it'd be better if I headed back to the pack. The snow covers up the sound of my paws, only a slight shift of snow is heard.

The sun starts to dim but I press on. Out of all my pack, I'm the best; The fastest, in both physical and mental speed and the strongest. I eagerly look forward to the next day; the day I take charge as the pack's leader.

I'm travelling along and come across a dirt road, somehow without snow. The sound of something running reaches my ears. My keen sense of smell picks up on blood. Human blood.

A flash of red goes past me and I blink. The human continues running. My stomach growls. Their fault for staying out beyond their precious bedtime.

I lick my lips and leap forward. In no time at all, I am able to jump again. Letting out a growl, I land on top of the human and tear away their red cloak.

Underneath lay a girl, possibly no more than fourteen. She had pale white skin with coal-black hair and blue eyes.

I shake away any feeling and open my mouth, ready to rip her head off.

Oh, how lovely she would be as part of the fest tomorrow. How lovely the taste of human flesh would be―

My train of thought is interrupted as my body lands on the ground. The girl quickly gets up and I hear a click.

She holds up a strange looking object in front of her. I'm about to walk forward when a resounding bang shatters the air.

Blood starts to pool around me.

Whatever weapon the human is holding, was dangerous. The girl looked fearful and another click came. It would be best to talk. Find a way of getting her to get rid of the weapon. Lure her into a false sense of security...

A yellow light consumes me and I feel myself changing into my human form. Another bang goes off and I feel myself falling... and slipping away from reality.

Five seconds, that's all it takes for a human to kill a werewolf.
