Mike, a boy of 14 years, is in his freshman year of high school. He believes in the existence of werewolves and vampires, and stuff like that. He has friends that believe in the same thing, and some of them actually ARE mythological creatures, but he doesn't know it yet. Mike has recently been feeling watched over the nights, and his rational mind says it's some kind of stalker.

Mike is a relatively tall young man, about 5' 9", with short spiked brown hair. Mikes' eyes are different than other peoples'. They are a dark green on the outside, like an evergreen tree, and brown on the inside, like wolf's fur. He usually wears comfortable clothes such as basketball shorts during the warm seasons, jeans during the cooler seasons, and short-sleeve shirts all year round with a comfortable jacket in cold weather.

Mike's friend Chrystal is a mixture of a witch and a shape-shifter, yet again he doesn't know. Chrystal can take on any form but she chooses a black panther as her favorite. Chrystal is a 15 year old girl who is 5' 5" and has long brown hair that gently flows behind her head. Her eyes are a light brown color. Chrystal always wears something nice, usually blue jeans and a dress shirt, in all kinds of weather, with a jacket when it gets cold. She has revealed most of her past to him, but not all. Chrystals' parents put her up for adoption because they could not take care of her properly. She does not like her adoptive parents, she tells him they are cruel to her and yell at her all the time. Chrystal also has the ability to sense others like her, as can all mythological beings that have enough experience. She has sensed something about Mike for quite some time now but she doesn't know exactly what it is so she decides not to tell him just yet.

Rayne, Mike's other friend, is a 14 year old girl and a very good friend of Mikes. She is about the same height as Mike and has short-cut blond hair. She used to wear glasses but has recently gotten contacts to show off her sea-blue eyes. Rayne is a mermaid, but not just any mermaid, she is the princess of the sea, the most powerful mermaid there is. She usually wears blue jeans and a t-shirt in all types of weather. Although Rayne and Mike have only known each other only for a couple years, they are very close friends. They consider themselves as siblings.

Mike is just getting to school when he feels like something is watching him, yet again, only more intense. He looks around, sees a shadow in the distance just standing there but thinks little of it. He walks into his first class, which is band. It is the beginning of the year so marching season starts today. Band, as usual, is long and brutal, due to the people that don't listen to the directors and talk back. After band rehearsal is over they are dismissed to change for regular school.

The rest of Mike's classes are normal except for his third class, Physical science. Mike's feeling from earlier is stronger than before. As class goes through its course, Mike keeps looking at Phil, his teacher, and he is looking back. He is now thinking that something must be wrong about his teacher. After class, Phil pulls Mike aside and tells him to meet him after school in the gym. Did he do something wrong?

Lunch is after third hour, finally he can spend some time with his friends, Chrystal and Rayne. As usual, Rayne greets Mike with a yell of his name and her running after him. "Hey Mike!! Could you be any slower getting here???"

"Sorrry!! I like to actually talk to people while I walk." Mike says sarcastically with a smirk

"Don't give me that attitude boy!!" Rayne says playfully. "Well come on. I'm starving!!!" Mike and Rayne go to get lunch as Chrystal gets her packed food ready.

Mike and Rayne finally get back to their table and start to eat. "So the weirdest thing just happened in third hour."

"Really? What was it?" Chrystal asks.

"Well Phil, my teacher, tells me he needs to see me in the gym after school lets out."

"Sounds important." Rayne says looking at Chrystal.

"Maybe.. Hey i have to go call my mom." Mike gets up, pulling out his cell phone to call his mom.

"Do you think Phil knows?" Chrystal asks Rayne.

"I don't know. But it sounds like he just might." Mike comes back and flops down into his chair.

"Hey, Mike."

"Yea Chrystal?"

"Be sure to be careful when you go to meet Phil. I don't know what he wants with you."

"Okay, i'll be careful." The bell rings for them to go to their next class. "I'll see you guys later."

After school lets out Mike is starting to feel a little bit nervous about meeting his first hour teacher. When he enters the gym he looks around and sees no one. Suddenly Phil appears out of the bleachers, his hands in his pockets. He is a tall man with blonde spiked hair. He wears leather jeans and a leather jacket, and moves with a kind of pride and purpose. He quickly pulls his hands out of his pockets and is holding what looks like a big ball. He throughs the ball towards Mike with incredible power and accuracy, aiming for his face. Mike, to his suprize, catches the ball right in front of his face. "Just as I thought. Your reflexes are improving quite well."

"I'm sorry, what are you talking about?" Mike asks.

"I've been watching you Mike. For quite some time now."

Mike now has a confused look on his face and is thinking 'this person is crazy', then his teacher says, "You don't know do you?",

"No... what are you talking about?"

"You are a special kind of person." he says

Mike replies " Yea and what of it?"

"You are a wolf... A werewolf.."

Mike snaps abruptly at him "What?!? What are you talking about? You're crazy!!"

"You don't believe me?" Phil says. Mike just looks at him like he is the most retarded person on Earth. "Okay fine you wait until after the night of the next full moon and then come see me. But don't say that I didn't warn you." Mike struts off out of the gym to call his mother to pick him up.
