The Moment

Chapter one

I ripped the tree out of the ground.

I hauled it over my shoulder and started walking back to my cabin.

I walked into a clearing with a shabby looking cabin in the middle of the clearing. Leaning on one of the walls was an axe.

I hauled the tree over the cabin and grabbed the axe after putting the tree on the ground.

I raised the axe and slammed it down on the rough bark. 

The wood groaned and the blade sunk several inches into the wood.

I yanked the axe out and started the boring work of chopping it into planks to replace the leaky roof.

Not that I cared about the roof.

It's just that I couldn't bare to have the picture get destroyed.

There was two pictures in frames on a windowsill. One had a little girl holding up a tooth and smiling to reveal a gap between her two front teeth. The other one had a beautiful woman laughing with a rugged, handsome man kissing the top of her head.

I slammed the axe down harder than necessary, which caused the wooden plank to snap in half.

I growled and threw the broken halves across the clearing. 

After about a hour of chopping and carving, I was ready to start hammering the planks into place.

I walked into the cabin and walked toward the back.

The cabin was basically just one big room. There was a dirty pillow and blanket in the corner, with a window directly above it. The rest of the cabin was filled with tools. Some looked menacing and others were everyday objects.

I grabbed a key from under the pillow and unlocked a hidden door and opened the door. In there was a small kitchen and a bunch of supplies. And those two pictures sat on the small one-way window.

I started sifting through the pile of supplies looking for nails but after a good 5 minutes of searching, I came to the conclusion that I had run out of nails.

I sighed and walked back out of the room and locked it. I took off my sweaty tank top and found some decent clothes and put them in a bag. I walked out of the cabin and started walking toward a small town about 4 miles away.

I walked a little into the treeline before tieing the bag of clothes to my right leg before shifting. The sound of bones cracking and rearranging themselves filled the forest. 

I slowly started walking, getting used to being in my wolf form again.

I rarely shifted, because I rarely need my wolf form to fight anyone. Not that there was anybody to fight.

But also because I wanted to forget that I killed my one chance at happiness in this form.
