wolf runner

Part 1

I was in the woods. I remember I was cold and scared. Looking back, I realised that was a brave 6 year old! I was ambling through the forest all on my own and my parents had just passed away. we were in the car, on a family adventure, until a wolf ran in front of the car. I looked away but I could hear my mother calling my name. "ELVA! ELVA!" she cried "I LOVE YOU, STAY STRONG!" and that was the last thing she said.

I didn't know what to do, so I just decided to have a walk through the forest. A man came over to me. He was slim and tall and he was wearing a grey t-shirt and black jeans. He had a soft soothing voice yet it was stern and serious. "I saw everything, I can help you. come with me and my family and I will care for you". I had nothing to loose. Nothing....

I walked along next to this peculiar figure. He walked me through the dark woods. In the darkness, I could see another silhouette. This one wasn't human though. It was some sort of dog. I kept walking beside the new father figure I had just met however he stopped in his tracks. All of a sudden the silhouette came towards us. It was a grey wolf. He had blood dripping down his chin and smelt of the damp forest floor. He began to come towards us. I was scared. I turned to my saviour who, to my surprise, was no longer with me. I looked around, panicking. All of a sudden a black and grey wolf appeared from behind me. I knew it was him..... But a wolf!!!! Maybe this was a dream and ill wake up with my mother and father sitting beside me. All of a sudden, the black and grey wolf spoke! "Elva, its me Charlie. I saved you from the crash. I know you saw me as a human but this is me"

I believed him. I knew he wasn't lying. I was getting tired. I didn't know where to sleep or where to go. Charlie spoke again: "climb onto my back and I'll take you to the pack." I did what I was told. Through the yawns, I managed to say, " but who is that Charlie??" The other wolf looked at me with an apologetic look on his face. I just realized he was young, maybe only my age. "I am sorry. My name is Oscar. I was the wolf that ran in front of your parents car. I'm so sorry!" I nearly began to cry again. I jumped down from Charlie's back and walked over ,cautiously, to Oscar. "I....I....I'm sorry...."
