The Clearing

The Clearing

I could hear the wolves all around me in all different directions

I was running in no given directions I seen I clearing and I ran into the middle of it and stopped there was a rock podium near the centre of the clearing. I turned in a slow circle and seen at least a dozen wolves coming through the gaps in the trees. They were getting closer and my fears were rising. I turned and seen a big black wolf standing upon the podium looking down on me with his yellow eyes. I looked him in the eye and I felt my knees buckle and I fell to my knees breaking the contact with the wolf. My hair fell down in front of my eyes. I couldn't see but could hear the wolves start to howl. I started to cry my shoulders shaking violently with sobs. The Alpha wolf jumped from the podium and stood in front of me. I was frozen to the spot not looking a him or the wolves around us. He sat in front of me and joined the rest of the wolves howling. I looked up a the moon with them. It was a bright full moon.
