Werewolf Committee

"Excuse me miss?" Said a voice and something shook my shoulder which made me jolt awake and look around for any danger.

"Wheres the fire!" I yelled while the man who woke me up chuckled at me.

"There's no fire," the old man said who looked at me with a kind smile.

"Then why," I say looking at my watch, "-am I being woken up at seven in the morning?" I ask frowning as I look around the train to see it almost empty.

"This is the last stop. You need to hop off," he said pointing to the display lights in the bus that clearly wrote 'last stop.'

"Uh, thanks."

I grabbed my suitcase and went over to the already open doors, and stepped out. However what I didn't expect was for my feet to sink into snow.

"What the hell?" I grumbled as I tried to walk forward, but my skinny legs won't allow it.

Groaning, I slumped down and sat on my suitcase as I tried to think of something to do. Looking around I caught a street sign that read 'North- the element of water- Wolf Committee.'

And indeed were they right. The whole place was covered in wet snow. Sighing I lifted my hand to touch the pure white snow, however the snow from beneath my hand lifted up with it.

Snatching my hand back I looked around to see if anyone saw while I had a look of shock on my face.

"What the.." I whispered as I slowly lifted my hand up a hundred thoughts raced my mind but nothing happened this time.

I could've sworn it was me but then again it could've been the wind... Or something else, right?
