The White moon

The white moon

4

First I heard a howl then another one. It was beautiful like a harmony. I was intrigued . Like that song you used to hear in your father's car to the supermarket when you were 4 years old. That exact same feeling the nostalgia. So I unwittingly decided to follow . It is obvious to all of you by now that I don't think much through things. So I followed the tune . A thick bush blocked my way but I was determined . I could here it right on the other side of the bush . I crawled down on my knees . Since I saw a small rabbit hole like portion that had not grown. As I came closer to the ground the scent of the wet mud and wild flowers hit me. It was sweet . I crawled through the bush and on the other end there it was. A cotton white wolf beautifully majestic .

As the moonlight hit its white fur it glowed. I had never seen anything more beautiful. I stayed still where I was and prayed it didn't see me because I wouldnt want to be torn to shreds. But then the howl stopped and the wolf looked right at me. The eyes were blue like that of a husk but they glowed. Fear and pain stroke me ,my dumb feet lost their ability to walk . But since I had lost everything to live for . I didn't mind dieing a stupid thought came into mind. I wanted to touch this dangerous wild canine .

Atleast let me die after feeling its cotton white fur. And that exactly I did. Slowly I made my way out of the bush and I stood up brushing the mud off my knees with my dirtier hands. Then I took the first step and the second and the third. The wolf stopped looking at me. Until I came close enough. Then I touched it. The stars fell from the sky. I felt electric shocks in my body and my knees trembled. My eyes lit up. Literal sparks were flying .

It then sped away. I tried to chase it but wasn't fast enough. My bones still hurt too from the painful bone disease I suffer from. After trying to chase it for a while I gave up. Luckily I have a good sense of direction orelse I'd be wondering g around all night. I was able to find my way back to the clinic. Just as I approached I saw torches lighting and out of nowhere Magnus came. "Hey where did you go?" and before I could answer."i thpugh something had happened to you because the locator spells where not working." This shenanigans of witches and warlocks ,I didn't have the energy for that right now I just needed rest.

I couldn't tell him that of course so I informed me I was tired. He quickly led me to a bedroom upstairs and asked if I wanted something to eat. I declined the offer but I needed a hot bath and when I had run the water earlier it was cold. So I asked him if I could access a hot bath . He smiled ,lifting the corner of his right lip . "Now that I can do". He showed himself into the washroom . I was right behind him when his hands lit up a beautiful colour of purple and the water in water which was already in the bathtub started steaming. Was I too tired and I was seeing things of this man had heated up water with his glowing hands. It looked too real to be a magic trick. He was an actual witch ,wizard, warlock whatever they call them. I rub the back of my palms on my eyes just to make sure. He must have read my facial expression which was surprised but mostly confused.

"Ok , i know you have a lot of questions but thats for tomorrow have a shower and rest." Then He walked out of my room . I had my bath the scent was gorgeous and the shampoo was better than anything we ever used in those cheap motels we slept in with mum. Speaking of her what was on the dash drive. So Magnus wasn't willing to answer the questions that wouldnt.let me sleep now. I figured my mother can answer a few. So I got done with my bath. And wrapped a towel around myself. OK this guy was super hygienic nothing had a spec of dust in a guest bedroom.

The clinic apparently had another side which was his house and that's where we were . Everything smelt great. There was an old computer in the bedroom fortunately it had a USB slot so I plugged it in. And open a folder entitled "For Bethal Niall" which is my full name but I go around with Beth. There was a video and it played. It was her , beautiful as ever in one of our old houses. "Hey" she awkwardly smiled ." Bethal my baby. If your seeing this I am probably not around." The thought of her being actually dead struck hard. " Bethal I don't know how exactly to tell you this but do you remember the books I always read for you about monsters" . Yeah i actually recalled that it was surprising I even did . "Well they are not only in books and they are not all monsters." What was that supposed to mean ." I am a human , but your not . Your not actually sick ,I am sorry I lied."

The pills I have taken my whole life. " Those pills are made by my warlock friend called Bane to lower your werewolf abilities. He has helped us soo much with money and hints about where to go ,where it is safe. To hide from your father's minions . " My father ever since I was a child and my father came into the conversation , she would say he is dead. "About your father I've avoided this conversation evertyime you tried to bring it up. " She said rubbing the invisible sweat off her forehead with her right hand palm as the other hand held the phone . Finally I was going to know what happened to him . I knew he wad dead but how ? Who was he all these questions running simultaneously in my head .

"He is a --a-a-a live". Then the footage froze . Blood ran hot in my veins. The tape was 2 hours long and I was just 40 minutes in . Why was this happening to me ? I was soo much pressure and after a few too.many attempts to get the video to play passed the area in was stuck on . I gave up and decided to rest. I promised myself though that the following morning I'd try to get someone to fix this flash drive for me.
