Chapter 2
For the next nine years she teaches me everything about how the human world works. Me and mom had grown super close. I even learn the reason she couldn't have children. When she was married at a young age and after she was pregnant. She got into an accident which took the life of her beloved and her child. She found out later that when she lost the child she lost her ability to have any ever again. I am now sixteen years old. After I hit puberty I started growing large antlers and I grew into my adult from. We normally grow into our adult forms by sixteen. Since I had mastered changing into a human mom decided it was time for me to finally enroll in school. I was so excited. Mom always said, I was a genius and a quick learner. So I got up early making sure I looked perfect.
"Don't worry my little cherry blossom you'll do fine." Mom assured me walking past me kissing my head. She had several nick names for me.
"I know momma everything's gonna be all right." I said, grabbing my bag and my schedule when I seen she had signed me up for chorus.
"You know I don't like singing in front of crowds." I blurted.
"I know but you've got such a beautiful voice baby girl you should learn to share it." She smiled, walking me out to the car and drove me to school we sang to the radio the whole way their. She pulled into the parking lot.
"Well this is my stop I love you momma see you when you come pick me up." I kissing her cheek and hugging her.
"I love you too pumpkin." She replied. Then I jumped out of the car and walked in finding my locker. I opened it putting my things in when someone ran into me.
"Oh I'm sorry I wasn't watching where I was going." I looked to see a small tiny timid girl gathering her thing behind me. I bent down to help her.
"No your fine besides I'm kinda a giant I get in the way a lot." I chuckled handing her books to her. Even when a Huldra is in its human form we're tall.
"Your not mad?" She asked, her hair was fluffy but she was adorable.
"No it was an accident why would I be mad? Im Fawn by the way I'm a new transfer student by the way." I laughed, lending her my hand. She took it hesitantly and shook my hand.
"I'm Jane but you don't want to be friends with me they'll eat you alive." She whispered in my ear.
"Well I'd like to see them try I'm pretty strong." I said, helping her up. When someone ran into me and started laughing.
"Sorry I didn't realize this was preschool." I yelled, the halls crackled with laughter.
"My dear friend you messed with the wrong chick." I winked at her smiling making her face turn bright red and them laugh even louder. She glared at me and turned to leave.
"Nice to meet you to." I yelled as she walked away making her storm off I laughed turning back to Jane. She was laughing hiding her face behind her books. When a handsome older male upper classman walked behind her.
"Hey sis. Thanks for helping her not many people would do that. I'm Leo by the way." He said, putting his hand on her shoulder.
"Well I'm not like most people. I'm a one of a kind." I joked laughing.
"I can see that." He smiled, walking off.
"Would you like to sit with me I don't know anyone?" I asked, she nodded eagerly. We sat in class together I even helped her with her school work. When I caught her brother sitting a couple of rows behind me smiling watching me. I waved smiling back. He waved back as the girl from earlier grabbed his arm glaring at me. I just stuck my tongue out at her and laughed turning back to Jane who was chuckling in her book. I gave her a funny look and she started laughing. We both laughed for a moment and got back to our work. She even gave me a friendship necklace. At lunch I decide to go up to the roof with Jane. She was afraid to because she's afraid of height till I went with her. After we went to chorus together. Her brother walked in with us he stood by us on the stands. When the teacher walked in.
"Well I see we have a new transfer student please introduce yourself?" He asked, I walked down to the front and bowed slight.
"Hi I'm Fawn. I hope we can be friends." I said, smiling brightly.
"Well aren't you a pleasant ray of sunshine. Now can you sing us a tune?" He asked. I nodded taking a deep breath closing my eyes and singing a tune. It got silent the moment I opened my mouth. When I opened my eyes everyone was staring at me.
"You call that singing?" The girl from yelled.
"Excuse me." I said darting out of the room I could feel my blood boiling I knew if I didn't calm myself down I would revert back to my true form. I put a hat over my head and locked myself in the looker room. I could feel my body shifting as my anger rose I locked myself in the separate part of the locker room I couldn't risk being seen in my true form. I even locked the emergency escape. I shifted into my true from. When someone knocked on the door. I heard my mother talking.
"Come on cherry blossom open up." She said, singing to me.
"You might want to stand back?" She asked.
"But she's my friend." I heard Jane mutter when I heard her scream.
"What's going on?" I demanded.
"A large creature just took off with your Fri..." I busted down the door when I heard my mother scream. I ran out right as a creature picked her up. People doged out of the way as I lunged pulling it down right as a beam fell on my waist pinning me down under it. My mom and Jane got out of its grip. It scratched me all up before it finally stopped moving and fell limp. I let go knowing it was dead right then I finally got a good look at it, it was a mangy wolf like creature. When Janes brother walked over with a group of people looking at it when I noticed their eyes were gold.
"It's the rouge my packs been looking for. Looks like it wasn't Fawn?" He asked.
"You actually suspected me what the heck Leo. I was nothing but helpful. Seriously I'm pinned underneath a beam my tails being crushed and you guys suspected..." I gasped as the ceiling started crashing down on me.
"Fawn? You can't be my Fawn." He muttered, as it crushed my stomach, making me coughing up blood. I slipped my hands under the beam and trying to lift it when it started crushing me. I screamed as my eyes teared up as I started bleeding. Leo started trying to lift it. When the other people that walked over with him started trying to lift it. When my blood hit the floor two trees started to grow on the walls beside me. The branches grew out lifting the fallen ceiling off me beautiful flowers stared growing everywhere my blood was healing me. I looked up right as a beautiful red rose blossomed on my stomach. Which means love. My head fell to the ground. I was heaving trying to catch my breath.
"Can you stand?" Leo asked, I shook my head. He grabbed my shoulders and pulled me out from under it and over to my mother. She hugged my when Leo picked the rose and and all the flowers growing on me turned to fresh soil revealing my completely healed body. I dusted it off feeling my strength come back. I'm a seductive forest creature since unlike the others of my kind have remained pure my power hasn't been tainted. Which means I also have more power. Mom hugged me.
"You dummy you could've been hurt don't do that again." She sobbed.
"Okay momma I promise I wouldn't do that again." I assured her.
"You better not momma will go insane. Your my pride and joy you know that." She replied, petting my head. I nuzzled her with my antlers against her like I used to when I was younger and they started growing. She chuckled.
"I'm so glad your okay my little turtle dove." She exclaimed.
"In alright momma you can stop now." I assured her.
"Are you sure?" She asked. I nodded and she let go Leo was staring asphyxiated on the rose.
"What are you? I've never met one of your kind." He questioned.
"I'm a Huldra a forest dwelling creature. We're all female, we're a very old and rare species. I know we have a bad reputation but I promise I'm harmless." I assured him.
"I've never heard of that one before is it dangerous?" He asked.
"Normally they are but she's the first one raised with love of a human. I've kept her pure so her power hasn't been tainted. Her species are seductive and mischievous but if one is kept pure the power they contain is beyond your comprehension. So no shes harmless in fact if anything she's protective. As soon as she knows someone needs help she doesn't care who you are she's right there. She's such a good girl." She replied, he smiled. When two men in suits walked over.
"So she checks out alpha?" They asked Leo, he raised his hand and nodded.
"She's fine actually I think you should a sign her to me if you think she needs watching over?" He asked, having him sign a paper.
"Sorry sweetie it's protocol since your such a young inexperienced creature. We need to make sure someone keeps an eye on you." He replied, I nodded.
"No it's understandable I don't exactly know my own strength. It would be a lot easier if I had someone to help me out. I've still got a lot to learn." I said, he nodded.
"Hope you know if you need any help you can just ask one of us to we don't bite and we'll help the best we can." One of the wolves said, smiling I chuckled nodding.
"Glad you understand." He said, shaking my hand. Leo smiled helping me up.
"Holly crap your a big one." He exclaimed, sizing me up.
"All my species are tall." I exclaimed.
"Sheesh." He muttered. As I changed back into my human form. Leo put his shirt and jacket on me. Then he led me and mom to the car. It was cold so I was shivering by the time we reached moms big dark blue truck. He sat me on his lap snuggling up against me. He was like a built in heater. It was nice. He even carried me inside and mom took him straight to the bathroom. He turned on and got in putting me in. It was bad news if I get cold I'll get into a deep sleep till my body warms up like a plant in winter. He wrapped his arms around me turning on the shower letting the warm water run down my face. It was nice.
"How she doing?" Mom asked, walking in.
"Much better." He exclaimed, washing my hair.
"Like a thousand times better." I muttered he chuckled.
"So how long do they want you to watch over her?" She asked.
"Till they see she can take care of herself." He replied.
"Well make yourself at home." She said, walking out. When we got out he carried me to my room. He dried me off and changed my clothes. Then he set me on the bed and changed into clothes left out for him. Which were some of moms ex boyfriends. I instinctively climbed under the covers laing my head on the pillow. He laid next to me and I fell asleep.
