I Am The Luna

A Run In

ZAIA. I spin around, there’s no one in sight, but I can smell them. It smells like… ash and metal? It’s a strange combination, and it’s getting stronger.

My own senses are heightened, and I let out a deadly growl, warning them that I’m not afraid of them. The sound that leaves me shocks even myself, but it gives me the confidence to raise my head and snarl once more.

One… two… three growls follow, and I realise there’s more than one rogue out there. Well, worst-case scenario, I will have to run, but that is if things get worse and there’s no option.

I watch as they slink out of the shadows, ready to attack. All three have dark fur, but I can’t be sure as they are rather dirty. Their eyes are glowing menacingly, but looking at them properly, I realise they aren’t much bigger than I can take them if I need to!

I almost chuckle at that. When did I ever think I’d be so confident in a wolf fight? We stare at one another. What do I do? Do I shift? No… If they attack me at that time, I’ll be dead…

Suddenly the middle one leaps at me, and I jump to the side, sending him flying over to where I had been standing moments earlier, but it doesn’t stop him from trying again. He growls viciously, turning as the other two lunge at me.

I snarl, feeling my aura surge forward and it’s like second nature. I bite into one of their necks, throwing them to the ground as I barrel into the second.

I growl at them, swiping the first one to the ground, shocked when my claws rip through flesh, drawing blood and he’s thrown to the ground. I must be dreaming, yes that must be it.

I dreamt I shifted and now I have turned into the Scarlett Beast. This can’t be happening! The stench of blood hits my nose, making it all the more real.
