Revamped
"AAAAAOOOOOOOHHHHHHH!" I yell to the spectacular moon.
"AAAAAAAOOOOOOOOHHHH!" My more-than-just-a-friend Jake does the same. I mean, who cares if anyone hears us? If anything, they'll be glad. Glad to know that the vampires haven't killed us off yet. But in reponse, a flurry of wings are silhoetted agains the moon, and we know that the vampires haven't been destroyed yet either. It's a mess. And where am I in it? Last night, I was pretty much dead. Left by the werewolves to die just because I am I vampire - well, was a vampire. Jake bit me to 'bring me back to life' and it worked- I am now a healthy(ish) young
black-as-night werewolf. "Are you cold yet?" Mutters the dull, brown pelted wolf by my side.
"Nah, leave it, Jake, I'm fine!" I do a lttle twirl to show how 'alright' I am.
"More or less..." I whisper when he's not listening. How could I be when I'm not anything? What am
I? A werewolf? Or a Vampire? Its a choice I have to make - werewolf with myboyfriend or vampire with myfriends and family. Good or Evil? Light or Darkness? I think the idea is hard. Who's Bad? Who's in the middle? Me?
When I think about it, being a werewolf is so much easier, people are kind to dogs, who they think we are?
But Vampires can fly. Isn;t that everyone's dream?!
It's hard havingtwo lives that can't meet.
"I want to end this." I speak my thoughts aloud by accident.
"We can't, Cynth. It's impossible. What's done is done."
"The big fight's tomorrow, that's what Alpha said."
"I know. And we're prepared."
The howls and screecheshaunt me. I stare across the battle field towards the vampires. I recognised a few. A few friends here, a family member there. What is the world coming to? A void of death.
I sneak round the woods and aproach one of my long-haired friends. I morph into my human form, no point in terrifying her. I must look different - a werewolf's human form has short, pelt-coloured hair whilst vampires have long, black hair. Mine was brown, not black like she remembers it.
"Idon't want this. We need to stop." I whisper.
"Cynthia? Is that you? Have you cut your hair?! Vampires can't cut their hair!"
"I'mnot a vampire, Lola." I hope she understands. Realisation flashes across her face. She lashes out at me.
"No! Stop it! Ican't help it! He saved my life!"
"He?!" Lola shrieks. "You chose you namby-pamby boyfriend over us? That's sick. Disgusting! Leave us alone! YOU DON'T BELONG HERE!" She lashes out again. "GET AWAY BEFORE I KILL YOU!"
"NOT IF I KILL YOU FIRST!" I shout, making no deadly move to prove what I said. Fear flashesin Lola's eyes.
"Get away! You freak!"
I turn onmy heelsand run. Run away. There's a howl and the carnage starts. I see blood and guts and gore. It's disgusting. I see Alpha rip out a Vampire Bat's throat, and a Vampire feeding off a familiar looking brown werewolf...
"JAKE! MUM!" I yell, pounding towards them. I screech to a halt.
"MUM!" I repeat, not bothering to morph into my human form - I'm weaker that way.
"Who are you,werewolf?" She asks in her supirior rich voice she has.
"I'm yourdaughter!"
"No you'renot! My daughter was killedby werewolves! We're avenging her loss!"
Suddenly, everything snaps into place.
"STOP EVERYTHING! AAOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH!" I howl in my loudest voice. My howltravels and echoes over theblood-bath, making every being stop.
When they're looking, I morph into my human form.
"Hhhhh! Cynthia?" My mother gasps.
"Cynth?" Dad does a double take.
"CYNTHIA!" The vampires shout.
"Yes. IT'S ME! STOP FIGHTING!" I morph backintomy werewolf form. Thebrownwolf on the floor splutters and gasps.
"JAKE!" I yelp and start licking the blood off hiswound. Maybe it'll help?
"Cynthia?" An all-too-familiar voice makes me start.
"JAKE!?" I shoot up and meet the soft blue eyes ofmy boyfriend.
"I thought you... I saw... I...uh... Who?" I smush allmy questions into one word,gesturing to the groggy-looking wolf climbing wobblily tohis feet. I don't recognise him at all. Not Jake.
"I don't know!" Jake laughs. "Am I really that disgusting colour?!"He jokes.
"No, you'rethe colourofchocolate!" I gabble lovingly.
"Thankyou!" Hegrins.
"STOP THE WAR!!!!" We all shout.
