20TH CENTURY WOLF

"He is an abomination, kill him!!!"

Cried the priest of St Augustine catholic

church, pointing at the prisoner. "Please, I

do not know what the afterlife looks like!!"

cried Octavius holding up his bleeding and

chained up hands as he's being whipped by

the guards.

"Silence!!, this world is habitat to

humans and not to half beasts, or should I

say...wolf", said the priest with a large smirk.

"Wolf?, what does he mean wolf?",

murmured one of the commoners.

"Use this!!", He cried, handing the

guard a Golden Dagger. "This you see here

is the Dagger of jakama. It grants a fate

worse than death". The guard collects the

dagger and looks into the eyes of the

prisoner.

"Please!! Please!! you do not have to

do this, Ahhhhh!!!" Octavius screamed.

"SLOKKK", The guard stabs Octavius in the

heart. "Put him in a coffin and throw him into

the oceans" said the priest with a huge smile

on his face.

Everyone watched as the dead

prisoner is being transported out of the

church in a carriage. "But he's...but he's only

eighteen", one of the commoners stammered

as she looses sight of the carriage.

It's another day in the town of cencades.

There's robbery in the junks store and no

one is calling nine one one. It looks pretty

normal around here. Then there's naive

Selene whoJust got home from school in her

father's old truck with one punctured tire.

"Good afternoon dad", Selene greets

her father who was napping on the couch.

"Hey can't you see I'm trying to get some

sleep here?", Mr Ragna said furiously. "I'm

sorry dad it wouldn't repeat itself", she said

while heading for her room.

Selene throws her bag on the floor

and sits on her bed covering her face and

starts sobbing. "Why does he gain pleasure

in shouting at me?", she said while crying.

Selene cried till sunset and slept off.

Mr Ragna walks up to Selene's room

"Hey!!...what'd you do to my tire?", Mr Ragna

yelled with a fierce looking face. Selene

wakes up looking so lost. "Yeah you heard

me right...now answer me!!", Mr Ragna said

whilst squeezing the Daily gossip

newspaper.

"I....I....I don't know sir, it just got

flat. "Oh don't lie to me girl, I'm 4 times your

age", Ragna said. "Whatever", Selene said

as she rolls her eyes to side. Now filled with

rage Ragna points at Selene, "You will not

talk to your father this way!!", "you're my

step father!!", shouted Selene.

"Foolish girl", Ragna said as he exits

Selene's room. She wiped off her tears as

she walked towards her window and locked

eyes with Ethan, turns out he heard the

whole thing from across his window.

As the rays of the morning sun

penetrates through the eyelids of sleeping

Selene, she Jumps up from her bed, "oh my

God I'm late", she said as she dashed to the

Bathroom.

"Bye dad, I'm late for school", she

said as she walks pass Ragna in the living

room. "Hey", Ragna cried, "give me the keys

to the truck....don't want any more

punctured tires".

"But...but I can't walk ten miles", said

selene with a frown. "No objections please!!,

Ragna shouts as he stretches his hands to

receive the keys. Selene throws the keys on

the floor and walks out on him.

On her way to school a truck

approaches her from behind and pulls

over beside her. "Get in", said Ethan staring

into her dilated pupils. "You know we need

more people like you in the neighborhood",

said Selene as she nods her head.

"Nah it's nothing", said Ethan as he

changed gears. "Hey....feel free to talk to me

anytime you feel like it", he said, maintaining

eye contact with Selene. "Umm ok", Selene

said with a smirk.

They soon arrive Cencades High, a

home to bullies. "Hello!!",...let's keep it down

please", said Mr Schneider as he searches

for his favorite blue chalk in his chalk holder.

"WEREWOLVES!!...real or myth?...anyone?",

said Mr Schneider as he writes the topic of

the day on the chalkboard.

"New girl!", he said as he points at

Selene. "You mind answering the question?".

"Yeah of course", Selene said as she stands

up. "Yes they are...in movies of course".

"Hahahaha", the whole class laughed as she

seats, feeling like the world best comedian

for a minute.

"I think that they live amongst us",

said Tristan as he folds his hands like he's

holding unto his belief. "You know what,

everyone...go make your research and don't

forget to attend the freshmen party this

evening...the class is ended", said Mr

Schneider.

"Yes!!!", Said Tristan as he squeezes

his fist so tight like he's about to throw a

punch. "Hey...new girl...wait up", Tristan said

as he runs in the hallway trying to catch up

with Selene.

"You think werewolves are only real

in movies?", said Tristan as he halts Selene.

"First, I'm Selene...and I really don't believe

in fiction", said Selene feeling pity for poor

Tristan.

"You know I've made this my life's

work", said Tristan staring into the eyes of

Selene. "Made what?", Selene asked. "The

hunt for the supernatural...hey what're you

looking at", said Tristan looking perplexed as

Selene wasn't paying attention to him.

"Who's that?", Selene said as she

admired the six foot dude in a black jacket

standing close to his locker opposite hers.

"Oh that...that's Luis, the best basketball

player in Cencades high...I bet he believes in

the supernatural", Tristan said as he waves

at Luis.

"Oh stop waving", Selene said in a very

low tone. "Why?", Tristan asked as he

giggles. "I don't know....just stop", Selene

said as she closes her locker. "Someone's in

loveee", Tristan said as he giggles, "I'm

Tristan by the way I live downtown

Cencades....catch you later" Tristan said as

he exits her space.

As dawn drew nearer, It dawned on

Selene that it was time to go home. She took

her bags and starts searching for Ethan in

the freshmen party happening in the open

field of cencades high.

"Hey...finally...there you are", she says

as she approaches Ethan. "Uhhh...don't you

think we should wait a little?, I mean I'm

enjoying it out here", Ethan says as he hands

her a cup of liquor.

"I don't drink", selene said with a

chuckle. "First time for everything", Ethan

said as he spreads out his arms so wide like

he's about to fly. "Oh whatever...give it to

me", selene says as she collects the glass of

liquor.

"Now you're talking", Ethan says as he

mocks the way she sips the content of the

glass like an infant taking her first ever

liquid. "I'll have that", Genevieve says as she

snatches Ethan's glass, joining the

conversation with her friend Liz.

"Hey!" Tristan says spreading his arms

out with a perplexed looking face. Genevieve

looks at Selene from head to toe like she's

some kind of suspect and goes, "Hey, I'm

Genevieve...this is Liz".

"Hi", Liz says as she waves at Selene.

"SAALENE", Selene burbs. "Hahahaha", the

threesome laughed. "My bad", Selene says.

"You guys got tequila?", Tristan says as he

appeared from nowhere.

"Aren't you underaged?, Genevieve

giggles. "Don't tell my mom", Tristan

whispers. "Aaaand the freshman of the

year goes to...Luisss!!", the Party host yells

as he welcome Luis to the stage and hands

him a gift.

Luis receives his prize, waves his hand

with a huge smile and enjoyed the moment

while it lasted. Selene looks at Luis as he

walks down from the stage and is now

heading towards her.

"Oh my God he's coming here", Genevieve

said, filled with excitement. "Hi, I'm Luis", he

said as he offers Selene his hand for a shake

with a smile on his face, "Selene", Selene

said as she holds his thick big hands.

"Hi guys", Luis said waving at the rest.

As the six teenagers became engrossed

with the party, a pair of glowing red eyes

watched them from the shadows.
