Allison's POV
I smiled as the warm water dropped down my body and relaxed my muscles.
I love showers.
For some reason, I never want to get in the shower, then after my shower, I don't want to get out. Is it just me or am I crazy?
Well I know I'm crazy...but...NEVER MIND.
After a few minutes of scrubbing and cleaning, a memory flashed through my mind...
FLASHBACK
I just watched my own dad die. What was left of him lay at my feet. My mother was already killed when the Rogues raided our house. Our pack has just been attacked by Rogues, and because of those things, my parents are dead.
My dad's throat was torn out and a pool of blood had formed by his head. His lifeless eyes were staring into mine, and his fur was sticky and dry from the blood. My wolf was howling in sorrow and anger inside of me for the death of my dad.
I could feel some sort of power pumping through my veins - something very powerful - urging me to get revenge. I turned around as hot, angry tears spilled out of my eyes. I could feel an angry scream wanting to make it's way out of me. I didn't hold it back. "NOOOOOOOOOO!" I shrieked. My scream echoed through the forest and I'm sure wolves for miles could hear that scream. As my scream went on, the ground started to rumble and a crack made it's way over to the murderer of my father. He has to die. The Rogue backed away slowly and as my anger built up, the crack in the ground picked up speed. When it reached the Rogue, the ground split in two and the Rogue fell through the earth with a whimper.
Everyone was now staring at me. The Rogues were looking at me in anger and shock for killing one of their own, and my pack members looked proud but mostly shocked, and maybe a little scared.
I didn't feel the power in me anymore. It's like it had gone away as fast as it came. I have no idea what that was, but I liked it. The feeling made me feel like I was the most powerful person on earth.
Suddenly I felt a hand in mine and I looked up to see my best friend for life, Ethan. "Whatever that was, it was awesome, but we need to get out of here." He said eagerly and I nodded as we bolted for the forest. Ethan's brown hair was pasted to his forehead and his green eyes looked confident. Even though our pack members are being killed one by one, he never seems to lose confidence. I love that about him.
We ran for what seemed like hours, but since we're werewolves, we can run a lot longer than that. Although we've only been running for a couple minutes. I was still crying and I didn't have the hope in myself to keep running, but Ethan kept me alongside with him so I was forced to keep going.
I heard a low growl, and I looked at Ethan, but he didn't look like he heard anything. I shook it off; thinking that the loss of my parents is probably giving me hallucinations.
I thought wrong when a Rogue sprinted from the bushes and snatched Ethan from my side. "Ethan!" I screamed. I tried to get the power that I felt before to come back, but I felt nothing. I was hopeless.
The Rogue had Ethan pinned to the ground with his paw digging into Ethan's throat. Since he's not old enough to shift yet, he couldn't do anything to save himself. I'm not old enough either, only the children of Alphas can shift at this age.
"Run!" Ethan choked out.
"I'm not leaving you!" I shouted back at him. I just lost my parents and I am NOT losing my best friend too! I could feel my heart breaking already and I'm not sure I can take anymore pain.
The wolf growled loudly at me and sprinted towards me. I dodged him and he landed on his feet across from me. Ethan scrambled to his feet, but right now the Rogue was standing in-between us so I couldn't reach Ethan.
The Rogue snapped at me and I backed away a few inches with a cry. He scrapped my arm a little. I met Ethan's green eyes and he mouthed to me, 'Go"
I shook my head right when the Rogue started charging towards me. My eyes widened in fear as I turned around and started heading in the opposite direction.
I ran.
And ran.
And ran.
And ran.
After hours, my knees finally buckled under me and I fell to the ground with a THUMP. I let everything out. Hot tears flooded down my face. I want my parents back. I want Ethan back. I want my pack back. I'm alone. I'm officially a Rogue.
After staring at the moon for a while with dried tears on my face, a face suddenly appeared over mine. She had brown hair and pretty blue eyes.
"Hi, I'm Carol," She smiled at me, "sorry but I'm going to have to turn you into my dad for trespassing onto our land." My eyes widened with shock.
Crap.
END OF FLASHBACK
By now, I was sobbing with tears from the memory that I just experienced. That was the worst day of my life.
I never understood how I split the earth in two, but since all of the witnesses of that were killed, I took that as an advantage to keep it a secret from everyone - including Carol. I'm not even sure if it was real or not. I try to convince myself that I was just hallucinating from the death of my parents, but my heart tells me otherwise. I try not to think about it. Carol knows about Ethan, though. I try not to think about him. I never actually saw him get killed but I never saw him or heard from him again after that night, so I just told myself that he's dead so many times that I believe it.
I turned off the water and stepped out of the shower. I screamed when I saw a little boy, around four, staring at my naked body with wide eyes and a gawking mouth.
I quickly grabbed the towel off the towel holder and wrapped it tightly around my body.
Do they know how to keep control of pups around here?
"Carol!" I called.
She quickly came into the bathroom and half her hair was brushed while the other half was a rats nest. I couldn't help but giggle at that.
She looked at me quizzically.
I pointed to the boy in front of me and she looked down. When she saw the little boy she shouted, "Henry!" She picked him up and held him at her waist. "You need to get out of this habit. I swear sometimes I think you're going to grow up to be a very hormonal teenager." She snapped. She looked at me thoughtfully. "Sorry about him. Sometimes he just walks into a bathroom in the middle of someone's shower and waits till they get out to see them naked."
OKAY THEN. That's really creepy...
"I never expected a toddler to act that way. Should I buy him condoms?" I asked sarcastically.
I could tell Carol was trying to hold back a laugh. Her face was turning red. "No." She managed to say.
I shooed her away and she glared at me for swatting at her as she left with perv boy.
I laughed lightly as I shut the door and locked it this time. Hopefully that'll keep the perverted pups away.
I looked around the room and realized something...
I HAVE NO CLOTHES.
"Caroooooolllllll!" I called again. I unlocked the door so she could get in. I was about to sit down when my towel fell off my body and I was just standing there nude in the middle of a stranger's room.
My head shot up when the door opened. A boy appeared in the doorway. A really cute boy. A really cute boy with lustful eyes. Wait, lust?
I looked down and realized I was naked!
CAN THIS GET ANY MORE EMBARRASING?!
