Werewolf Committee

"All students report to the auditorium, I repeat all students," the school announcement blared through the speakers as the students scrambled their way through the halls, heading towards the gymnasium which the school used as their auditorium.

"Lily c'mon! We have to go there now," I giggled as she made a face at me tugging me back towards her.

"No, Elina! Its a trap! They're going to suck out our brains, and steal our knowledge!" Lily cried in fake worry as she hugged my arm and leaned into me.

"Knowledge? That's a pretty big word for you, isn't it Lily?" I teased as she rolled her eyes and started walking with me down the hall.

"Sorry, not everyone can be a whiz at maths," she mumbled as I slapped her arm.

"Hey! Werewolves are supposed to get numbers, it just comes naturally!"

After giving me one last look, Lily and I giggled as we walked up to the main doors of the gymnasium. Just as I was going to reach out to pull the door, to our utter shock, it swung open and revealed a very angry looking Ms Mavel.

"Oh! What a surprise, Elina and Lily. And why are you two young ladies wondering around the halls when you should be in there?" She said gesturing towards the room that the now open double doors displayed. Her eyes were narrowed and her white messy hair was more disheveled than ever as various strands escaped her tight bun.
