The Clan - Camme Sharkey (reading books for 5 year olds TXT) 📗

This girl had pure red eyes and blonde hair that fell just below her shoulders. She looked very gothic, with her thick black eye liner, and her black clothing. The weirdest thing though was her lip ring. “Hi, Jayson and Catty. We need to talk. It’s very urgent.”

Chapter 3
The Truth


“Well you girls go have fun.” Her mother seemed very happy that her daughter had made two friends today without them running away.
We went up stairs to Catty’s room with this mysterious red eyed girl. When we reached her room the girl closed the door and started whispering, “OK you two, I know by now you know something really weird is going on, don’t you?” We both nodded. “Well I don’t know how to explain this without making it sound weird, but I am just going to flat out say it. You two are werewolves, just like me and some others. About this “beast” chasing you, she is actually one of us. Her name is Otsana, but she had decided to work for Rudi. He is the all powerful leader of this group who wants to wipe out the whole human race. They call themselves The Vexians. They take in the smartest humans and werewolves to try to help them with this devious plan. Most don’t have a choice because they threaten to kill your friends and family. And that’s exactly what they are doing to you, Jayson. They took your friend Olly and plan to kill him if you don’t join them.”
“But they can’t! No one would be so cruel to do so!” I really couldn’t believe what I was hearing this girl just walks in on our lives, says that we are werewolves, and tells me that these evil Vexians have captured my friend and plans to kill him. Does she really expect us to believe her?
“I know all this is hard to take in, but it is all true. They believe you will become a great wolf yourself. And now that Catty has defeated Otsana in battle, they probably will plan to threaten her too. If you don’t believe me about all this I will show you my self.” She took a deep breath and her ears started to get fuzzy and pointy. She grew a tail and very sharp teeth and before we knew it there was a huge wolf with a silver coat, and the girl’s bright red eyes.

Chapter 4
Our Journey Begins

Through all of this explaining, questioning and yelling this is all that I figured out; that werewolves are not some creatures that turn forms during a full moon. They are a more complex creature that has some extra ability, like telekinesis, and also only change forms when wanted or when we are really angry. Also that this strange red eyed girl, her name is Zui and her extra ability is shape shifting but in a more complicated way that is hard to explain. She said she that she can look like one person to me, look like a different person to Catty, and be completely invisible to everyone else all at the same time.
“So what you are saying is that you need to take Catty and I to this, whatever you called it, so we can be safe?” I had no problem with leaving to go to this place but I still wanted to know what they were going to do to us there. Also Catty looked like she had a problem with leaving her mom here unprotected.
“Yes, we need you guys to come with me to the Palazzo di Recerca so I can teach you how to control your powers and anger.” I could tell Zui was getting very bored and annoyed with all these questions. I just agreed to go along since I had no one to say bye to, but Catty wouldn’t go with out more questions.
After what was about an hour of questions, Catty finally came to the last one. “What about my mom? What am I going to tell her?” I could tell that she was very worried about leaving her mother alone in this big house. Partly because of her expression and because I could hear her thoughts again.
“Your mother has known about this since the day you were born. If you come with me now, you are also be able to meet your father. He has been waiting for your mother to allow him to see you for awhile now.” This was very surprising to the both of us.
“Well what about my mother? If her father is there waiting for her, then my mother must be there too. I know that my dad isn’t a werewolf. So my mother has to be.” I had never known my mother. When I was born the only person I had ever saw was my drunk father. I have always wondered where my mother was.
“Um, I’m, not quite sure if your mother is still alive or not. We won’t know until we get there. But first we need to teach you guys how to change form. One because you need to know how to and two, we can travel faster in wolf form.” Zui was standing there with her red eyes staring at us, with determination to get us to this research place, and safely too.
Catty an her mom had a teary good bye, but we had to eventually leave. This place that she was taking us, Palazzo di Recerca, was a place for our kind to stay and to be safe. Not to mention it is all the way in England. I was all ready to leave with my bag packed. I had a extra pair of clothes, my glasses and contacts, tooth bush, a sleeping bag with a pillow, and a good book to red on this long journey. I almost forgot my necklace. It was a gift from my mother, well that was I was told by my father. It had three amulets, two from her and one from Olly. I had a silver heart and a silver circle with stars inside of it that said; When life gives you a hundred reasons to cry, show life you have a thousand reasons to smile. The one I have from Olly is a silver music note that said; You only live once, but if you work it right, once is enough. This necklace was the only thing I had to remember both of these people by.
Catty and Zui meet up with me at my treehouse. They both had bags packed too. When it was clear that we were all ready we headed into the woods.
At sunset, we stopped and decided to rest. We were talking about what we liked the most about our lives, and strange enough Zui said it was her capability to become a wolf whenever she wanted. Just then she changed forms and ran off. Catty and I thought this was funny. We had nothing else to do, so we sat there and waited for Zui’s return.
When she returned she came back with my bow and arrow. She dropped them at my feet. “You will need these.” She said, it was in latin, but I could understand it. I guess it’s something that comes with being a werewolf, so I didn’t question it. I still can’t get use to the fact that I could change into a wolf though.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Once she was back in human form she was getting ready to teach us how to change forms. I was so excited to learn how to change forms. Zui even had a mirror so we could see what our wolf-selves looked like. She said we had to relax and concentrate on being a wolf or think what made us most happy.. I was always relaxed so that wasn’t hard to do. Then I thought of that day. The day I had met my best friend. I guess it made me happy enough because when I looked in the mirror, I saw a regular sized wolf with a pure white coat, red streaks all over, it also had shimmery blue eyes. It looked albino almost, and it would if it wasn’t for the streaks. If that was me then how come I am not as big as the others?
Catty had also changed form. She had a light brown coat with black streaks running through it. She was gigantic though, all I could wonder was ‘Why aren’t I?’
“Hey, why am I so small and you guys so big?” I was surprised when that came out of my mouth, I was speaking in latin i guess. It sure wasn’t English.
Zui was very quick to reply, with joy in her eyes too. “Well, legend has it that every millennium, there is a tantillus werewolf born, meaning very small. That turns out to be you.” She looked like she had more to say, but was trying to hide it, so I just left it alone.
After we were back in human form, we started a fire and cooked some chicken Catty had packed from her house. We were all eating, and ready to go to sleep when we heard something in the foliage behind us. We all turned to see what it was and there, standing right in front of us, was.....”Otsana!”


Chapter 5
Our Little Visitors

Instead of being a werewolf she was human. Her human form looked nothing like I thought she would. She was a redhead, and her hair was cut just above her ears and she had a bright pink shirt with a white clip on tie. She also had a white miniskirt on, long stockings and black velcro dress shoes. Her eyes were still the same though, dull, and white She pretty much reminded me of an overgrown school girl, but I knew she was much dangerous then she looked.
“Hello girls.” She had this high pitched voice that sounded like it would break a wine glass by her just saying a few words. “I have been sent to to take you two to my master, Rudi, he also gave specific orders for you also, my dear Zui.”
“What ever you have planed will not work! You are outnumbered and will never win!” I could tell Zui has been in many battle against this she-wolf many times by how she yelled. I could tell she hated her as much as I did for taking Olly from me.
“Ha ha ha, you amuse me. You girls are no match for me. Even if your two new additions have beaten me once they will not again.” She waved her hand forward and more wolves came out of the shrubs. Their colors ranging from a dark orange color to a very light creme color. The only thing they had in common was their eye color. They all had these blank looks and big black pupils. Kind of like they were under some mind control. “See. Against my army you weaklings have no chance!” She waved her hand one more time and they all lunged forward and attacked.
Most of the them went after Zui but she seemed to be handling them pretty well. I had my hands full anyway. It seemed that out of all these wolfs here, I had to go up against the biggest one. It was a light brown color with white paws and stomach, with these deep brown eyes. All it had to do was bark at me and I fell to the ground. I tried changing forms, but it wouldn’t work with this thing chasing me. I tried to tried running but that didn’t work either, he was so big he would be right next to me in one step.
