I’m Not Just A Human

I woke up from a cold breeze blowing through my open window. I slowly stood up and moved towards it. I close the window and turn to the alarm clock , it’s only 5 a. m. so if I want I could squeeze in a run.

I walk to my small closet and pull out a long black tights and a matching black sports bra. I pulled my hair into a messy bun and then took my running shoes out from under the single bed. I wrote a letter saying I went for a run, just in case Noah woke up and then locked the door as I exited. I put my shoes on outside so that I wouldn’t wake up Noah by accident. I tied my shoelaces and hide the key in my shocks. I stretch for a minute or two and then started to run into the woods

I loved running in the forest. Listening to the sound of birds and animals. It’s so calming. As I run I thought of everything I need to do, if we want to stay here permanently

1- we will have to get a new house. The wooden house is just so small and it has become fragile with time.

2- I need to think how i will pay for Noah’s school. I mean my payment for high school isn’t a problem, since I have a bursaries, lucky I always made sure that my grades were still excellent and I am a very good sprinter and long distance runner. At the moment Noah also has a bursary, because , like a said , he is a genius. But I think the pack members are trying to get him and I kicked out. Even at my job some people complain about me and the I haven’t even been their that day ? The local pack are assholes.

3- How the hell will I convince the local pack to accept us.

I speed up my pass as I get more frustrated. I am still frustrated and I pick up the pass again and now I’m just full out sprinting. I run like this for a minute before I stop completely. I realised that I’m way deeper into the forest then I usually am and I start to get nervous. I might be living on the local packs territory, but if I get to close to the pack house, they will attack me. I start to freak out and I quickly turn on my heels to start running back. O please , O please don’t let me die.

As I silently pray to who ever is listening, I hear something behind me. I didn’t dare to look back. All I did was increase my speed. The sound behind me started to fade and I felt a wave of relief wash over. That was until I heard howls and growling not to far from me. I stopped and took a big branch of the ground. Ready to swing at who ever tries to attack me. After a minute of searching I didn’t see anything, I also didn’t hear growls anymore, all I heard now was the sound that a dog makes when it cries. Before I even realise what I am doing, my feet move to the direction of the sound. As I move forward the cries get louder and then I see it.

A small brown wolf, covered in blood. It picks up my sent and snarls at me. I hold my hands up and drop the branch. The wolf is injured very badly. I slowly try to approach it. It’s getting so weak. It can’t even keep its head up anymore and finally just lays still on the ground. I drop down next to it and see that it has long deep scratches on its belly and has bit marks all over its body. O wait, it’s a she-wolf. I pet her head as pain throbs in my heart for the creature. The wolf opens her eyes again and I notice that it a piercing blue. Her eyes are so humanizing and beutiful.

“Its going to be okay girl” I whisper to the wolf as it closes it eyes again. I look around to try and see what I can use to help the wolf, but theirs nothing. ‘Think Sofia think’ I tell myself. She is losing a lot of blood, damnit what do I do. I then think of something. I quickly take of my shoes and my socks. I bit into the hem of the sock and rip it. Tying the two piece together to make a longer bandage. I do the same with the other socks and make one large bandage I tie it around her neck very carefully. I want to stop the bleeding not choke the poor thing. I then take my thighs of and silently thank myself for wearing a black boyshort pantie. I rip my favorite tight in half and then wrap it around the wolf’s more serious injuries. This at least helps a bit , the bleeding has slowed down. I try and think how I can help the wolf even more. I want to carry her to a vet, but eventhough she isn’t very big she is still very heavy and still to big to carry. I sit and think for a few seconds , before I hear twigs snap behind me. I quickly grab my branch and spin around.

Their are two massive black wolves in front of me. They growl and snarl at me. I stand in front of the wolf not wanting it to get attacked again, but the wolves never attack they just stand their and try and look behind me. They have the same beutiful blue eyes. Maybe they are family. I slowly stand up and move behind the brown wolf, with my stick still in front of me. The wolves slowly move to the brown wolf . The one tries to wake her up with its nose , but she doesn’t. They then move to my make shift bandages and bit on them lightly. They slowly pull her back into the forest , while their piercing blue eyes stare at me.

What the fuck just happened? I stand their for a few minutes before I realise I’m semi naked in the middle of the forest. I turn around and head back home. When I get their Bilbo is already at the door with his book bag. He turns and sees me. He looks relieve and yet still stressed.

“Fify school is going to start! Where were you?” He ask getting a bit frustrated. I know he isn’t really mad otherwise he would have used my nickname.

“I’m so sorry, I’ll tell you after school.” I say while I run into the house and grab some grey shorts and some clothes I can get changed into at school. ” I grab my bag and run to my bike. I drove like a mad woman to get Noah to school on time. After dropping him of I go to my school . Turning of the engine, just as the school bell rang, letting the children know class will start in five minutes. I grab everything and run into school. I get side eye by almost everyone and most of them look at me with discuss written all over their face or just flat out laughs at me. Just as my chemistry teacher was about to enter his classroom I stop him, panting and out of breath.

“Dear lord, what happened to you child.” He says in his deep voice.

“Wolf… fight… helped… change clothes please… class..” Is all I could manage to get out in between breathes. He frowns at me.

“Just go clean your self before entering my class, miss Hale.” He says and I throw him a thumbs up as I lean on my knees. After catching my breath I walk to the girls bathroom and look at myself in the mirror. O FUCK NO. I have blood on my forehead twigs and leaves in my bun and I look like I just spend two weeks living in the wild. Great I already get terrorised by these people for no reason and now I just handed them a bom to throw me with. I sigh and start to clean myself

I watched my face and redid my messy bun, I then took out the gray oversized sweater and blue short. I paired it with my gray pumps and walked to class. Since I was late the entire classes started at me as I entered. The only open place was at the back next to the mean girl, Sarah Gray. She has been mean since day one and have almost made me cry five times and it’s my fifth day here! I looked at the ground and made my way to the back. Just as I sat Sarah raised her hand.

“Yes, miss Gray. ” the teacher lifted his eyebrow.

“Sir, I am sorry but I won’t be able to focused with, miss Hale smelling like she has been dead for 7 years.” She said in a in innocent and sweet voice.

‘Sweet my ass’ I internally thought. The class of course thought this was the most funniest thing ever and started to laugh. She then turned to me and gave me the bitchiest grin ever.

“Miss Hale, maybe you should go to the girls locker room to shower.” Mister Fillmore said.

“What but , th…”

“No buts , go ” he said with a finality. I scoffed and rolled my eyes. I grabbed my bag and stomp out of the room …

This day can’t get any worse.
