Chapter 1
Sorry I hope that you don't mind but I tend to make long chapters like 2,000 to 4,000 words per chapter, but otherwise I hope that you enjoy and comments on what to improve and what I could name the book are welcomed (and more than likely going to be solved with a vote or count system, As in whatever name gets the highest amount of people that said that name for the title then it wins, and I will show everyone the results). Do you guys like this cover or the one above, or one of the ones below.
I was just a normal teen one time, a fifteen year old living by myself with no parents and no one else in my life (well besides friends of coarse). Then I found myself at school, and it was the worst place of my entire life. I had to go from class to class and try to avoid all of the people that wanted to make fun of me or try to talk to me. Yeah I wasn't the type that liked to talk to people especially since they just wanted to be short time friends or make fun of me behind my back. I mean just because my name is Emerald doesn't mean that I have to get pushed around all of my life then one day I tried to push back, I have long silver-blond hair that makes it look grey and a slender body that makes some look twice.
"Hey Emerald you want to play with diamond" said Josh holding up on of the ugliest barbie dolls I had ever seen "I think that she wants to play with you"
"I don't have time to mess around, Josh" I said "I just want to get to class"
"What's wrong, you sad that you have such a stupid name for a girl" he said with a smirk on his face "dork". Then I lost it I had enough of getting messed with all of the time by this jerk.
"Look do you think that it is easy living by yourself all of the time. Do you think that it is easy living without both of your parents or any siblings because they all died in a car crash. Do you think that it is easy getting yourself up at four in the morning just to walk four miles to school in every element, and barely having time to eat and brush your teeth in the morning. Because if you do tell please me" and by this point I had him against the wall, and he had a look that was pure freight on his face.
"Y-your eyes. They changed colors." he said
"What?! No you're still messing with me" I said sternly
"N-no I am not lying to you because if I did you would know" he said scared. Then letting him go I quickly walked to the bathroom to look to see if he was lying to me. When I got there I almost feinted. My eyes were different colors, first after the red came the yellow then the purple. The crazy thing was that they changed colors after thirty minutes exactly. Then skipping class, which I didn't feel like going to after the empty hallway blowup at Josh. I went home and took a shower, and I felt better after the shower but I didn't feel normal still. I felt like a match had just been lit inside of me and had quickly grown into a wildfire when it was dropped into the tall, dry grass. The next day I went back to school and I was avoided by everyone still, and even worse I was looked at like I was a freak.
"Guys did you hear what happened to Josh yesterday" a guy at a table said to one of his friend and when the didn't answer he said "he was sent home for the rest of the day, but he didn't make it"
"Why?" one of the guys said "what happened?"
"Some wild animal got him, and all they found was bones and a rib-cage" the first guy said to the others. Then I went over, and I demanded to get some answers.
"Look guys are you messing with me because if you are then I will rip out you throats" I said to them
"No we aren't messing with you look on the news" he said slightly scared. Then I got out my phone and looked up the latest news, and he wasn't lying. Then article was about the mysterious killing of Josh Banker last night when he was walking home, and the reports for a suspect that might've known what happened. That person was me, and I didn't know why I was the one to be brought in for questioning. They said that it was a wild animal, so why was I the one that they wanted questioned other than the fact that yes we did have a fight but it was just a little school fight I asked myself.
The next few days went by fine, but then one night I went home and got ready for my morning walk. After I got outside I noticed that all of the lights were out and usually that lights came on after ten even if it was still bright out. Then I heard the growling, so I looked behind me and there it was. The animal that killed those two people, and I was next.
"Okay I don't know if you can understand me but I don't want to be eaten by a five foot wolf, and I read in a book that wolves only get up to two or three feet in the wild so either there is something wrong with you or you are different---special" I said to it knowing that if I ran it would only increase the chance of it running after me and killing me "but of coarse you can't understand me I am talking to a wolf, an animal that is at the top when it comes to all dogs, an animal that is savage. So what now are you going to kill me, or are you going to do something else to me, like what happened to the others eaten" by now it was just circling me thinking about something it seemed. But wolves can't do thinking beside safety, food, water, sleep, and other things that are not human like, but what this one was doing was very human like, it was thinking. After a while I was starting to get restless, and very bored. I mean yeah there is a wolf circling me but I didn't care, I couldn't care any less.
Let's play a game of would you rather something said inside of my head as the wolf sat down
"Okay who said that" I asked looking around me
The wolf, could you be any more oblivious than you already are? the voice said again and this time I knew even though I didn't want to believe it I was hearing the wolf talk in my head.
"Awesome, so you could understand a word that I said...great"
Yes,yes I could, but anyway I am going to let you choose this one he said would you rather be a werewolf or something else? that definitely got me thinking did he mean werewolf with or without help and what else could I choose.
"I mean I guess I would choose werewolf, but also it--ow why did you do that" I asked looking at the bite on me legs.
I hope that you like what you got because you are going to be stuck like this forever, and you will be learning on your own, sixteen year old girl he said to me, just before I blacked out. I dreamed of wolves running, but they weren't running for the fun of it they were chasing something...me. Then I woke up in a cold sweat, and screaming.
"Hey-hey-hey-hey it's okay nothing is going to get you" a female voice said from my side "it was just a dream" and at that I bolted up and looked around there were three people in my hospital room, what I was in the hospital room.
"How did I get here, and who are you and these men" I said looking at the two men that looked like guards, but what or who could they be guarding...her.
"We are federal agents" she said as she showed me a badge that was fake
"Okay the badge is stupid I can see every speck of a fake in it" I said "who are you really"
"Huh...that is very interesting, no one has been able to tell it as a fake" she said surprised, and the two men stiffened. She held her hand out and gave them a look Don't we need her alive.
"Need me alive for what exactly" I asked suspiciously, and this got everyone in the room but me surprised "what?"
"You just intercepted a message that was shielded from everyone" she said still looking marveled "anyways we need you alive and conscious so that we can question you"
"Question me? Question me about what exactly and you never answered my previous question, who are you" then I was overloaded with images and sounds of battle scenes of wolves fighting, and her walking to three people sitting in a row of tall chairs and given the title of leader of something. Then I saw the camp, and it was very, very pretty. Gardens everywhere, and people in and around buildings of what looked like a school, cafe, training center, and a big tall building that I didn't know what it was. Then I was inside of the building and going down and down to what looked like dungeons, and I stopped at one cell, a cell with the look of a dark man with obsidian eyes. The same eyes of the wolf that bit me, and then they and the man vanished from the cell and when I turned around the wolf was there biting me on the shin. Then he running down the hallway and leaving a-lot of dead soldiers in his path out. Then it happened all over again, chaos, death, screaming, running, and shooting at a large, dark brown wolf. Then I saw darkness, and the vision ended. I looked at her shocked face with a horrified look on her face.
"No" she said under her breath "he couldn't have bitten you, he died in the firefight at our Academy"
"Well those eyes were the same eyes of the wolf that bit me after giving me a choice or wolf or something else" I said "I don't know what the other option would've been, but I don't think that it was life"
"I don't know what mad him do that...wait did you hear him" she said "or rather in other words did he speak to you inside of your head?"
"Yeah" I said "yeah he did, I don't know how but he did and I could hear him"
"You must already have wolf blood flowing inside of you, or something else maybe" she said "who were your parents"
"I don't know, they died in a car crash falling off of a cliff on a business trip they never told me who they were or why they left they just did" I said "they weren't around much anyway, and I barely knew them, not even their names" then I heard her cuss under her breath, and nod at the two guarding her.
"We need to get you out of here now" she said, and they arranged to take care of me and make sure that I was okay. Then we were in a car speeding on the highway, and I didn't know what the big rush was about or because of.
"Why are we going so fast I asked looking at her from the backseat of the jeep" I asked
"If Tarea has chosen someone as his pupil then that means all of the evil werewolves are looking for you and they will do anything to get you" she said
"Why?Why would they want me" I said "I'm no one, just a girl that has been living on my own for years"
"No you are their next leader, and when they get to you they are going to make you their leader and sadly it is a very painful ritual" she said "that is one reason why and another is if you become one of them, or even their leader then your power will only increase and we won't be able to stop you"
"So what are you going to do to or with me?" I asked
"We don't know yet" she said then the car jerked and tipped on its side, and the next thing I knew we were spinning and then we stopped. The two men were dead, and I knew because they didn't have a head anymore. Like it was ripped off with such force that they couldn't even register what had happened. The next thing I remembered was a fierce grip on my arms pulling me out. Screaming And a rough handed man pulling me out of the car.
