I'm walking through the forest, feet sinking into the earth below my feet. The forest is so quiet, barely a chirp or a breeze. All that can be heard is the sound of my heartbeat and the crunching of the leaves under my feet. I know I am not alone, I have not been alone my whole life, I've always felt as if there was a presence with me. Something or someone, even though not physically with me, has always been apart of me. A missing part I hope to find one day. As I'm walking I get the feeling I'm being followed. I start to walk faster pulling my sweater closer to myself. The sound of a wolf howling close by halts me in my steps. Goosebumps traveling from the top of my head to the tip of my toes. I hear a soft growl behind me and slowly turn around to look my impending doom in the face... or should I say snout. Standing before me is a massive brown wolf with a wicked and sinister snarl... his eyes are gleaming red and his stare is deadly...
I hear a voice in my mind as clear as day, "Shift"....
All of a sudden I feel my hands start to burn, I look down and see claws protruding from my nails and fur start to sprout out my arms... I realize I'm standing taller... I hear growling but it's not from the wolf, it's from me!!!
I stare at the wolf infront of me who is in attack stance, ready to pounce... I bend down standing on all fours and lurch forwards towards the wolf, I swipe my paw at his face, he ducks and slashes my throat before I can even blink....
"Beep beep beep beep beep"
