The Blue Moon

Chapter 1:

I throw my head back and breathe in the cool night air. Crickets chirp and owls "who" around me.

"Who? Who?" the owl asks me. Who am I?

Well, Mr. Owl, I am Courtney Summers and I am a werewolf. Duh.

"Who? Who?" the owl asks me again. He still doesn't know me...

I am 15. My father is the Alpha male of our pack, which makes me almost royalty. Key word: Almost.

"Who? Who?" the owl calls one more time. I sigh and stand up, brushing the grass and dirt off of me. I inhale the cool summer air once more and then begin to shift.

My bones and joints ache, pop and move. I feel fur begin to cover my arms. I watch as my hands are replaced with paws. My sight sharpens and shows the dark world in high definition.

"Who? Who?" the owl calls once more.

I smirk, knowing that my pearly, sharp white teeth are showing.

I will tell you once more Mr.Owl. I am Courtney Summers. I am a werewolf. And this... This is my story.

My paws push off the ground and I take off farther into the dark forest.
