"What the heck?!" I said to myself.
How is this possible?! I'm..... I'm a wolf! At least, I think so.
I checked my reflection again, and raised my hand... er... paw. Yep, that's definitely me. Unless there is a wolf in the water doing that. I doubt it though.
OK, OK, stay calm. Everything's going to be alright......
"OMG! OMG! OMG. OH. MY. FRICKING. GOD." I yelled to myself.
"WHAT'S HAPPENING?! HAVE I BEEN CURSED?! WHAT IF IT WAS AMANDA'S FAULT? FREAKING AMANDA. I'MA GET A STICK AND WHACK HER IN THE FACE WITH IT! AHHHHHHH!" I screamed, rolling on the floor.
"WHAT ARE MY PARENTS GOING TO THINK? DID THEY GIVE ME THIS? HOW AM I GOING TO GO TO SCHOOL?" I screeched at world record speed,"HOW AM I EVEN GOING TO GET HOME? WHAT IF MY PARENTS DON'T RECOGNIZE ME? HOW DO I CHANGE BACK INTO A HUMAN?! WHAT IF I STAY AS A WOLF FOREVER?! WHAT IF-"
"Will you shut up?!" someone said. It was Cougar-Woman.
"I can't!" I whined, "I am a wolf! I don't wanna be a god dang wolf forever!"
She seemed to consider this. Then a evil grin crossed her face.
"So you don't know how to control your powers eh?" she snarled. All of a sudden, she leaped at me with her claws out and ready to shred me to tiny iddy-biddy pieces. I yelped as she landed on me. I squirmed, trying to shake her off, but she still clung to me. I rolled onto my back, causing the big kitty to turn into a pancake. Under my wolf bodie, she mewled. I got up, and surprisingly, she still was on my back. I ran forwards, and before I crashed into a tree, I turned, and instead of me hitting it, Cougar-Woman did. That did it. She finally let go, and fell to the ground, with her eyes shut. Is she unconscious?
I looked at the unmoving kitty, and gingerly poked her. I think she is.
Then, without warning, she leaped up and grabbed the scruff of my furry neck with her sharp teeth and threw me across the clearing.
"ahhhhhhh" I screamed. I landed on the solid ground face first.
"owwwww" I complained, getting up slowly. Then, without warning, she chomped down on my leg so hard it most likely broke.
Then something weird happened.
Two other animals leaped out the bushes and started to attack Cougar-Woman. She attacked them back, but when I thought she would surrender and run away, she turned on me and swung her hand, even though I was like, fifty inches away from her. But then the wind picked up so much that it threw me against a tree and make me black out. But before I blacked out, I had a weird feeling. I didn't have a word for it though.
** 1 Hour Later **
As I opened my eyes, I immediately knew everything that just happened wasn't a dream. It was real.
"Oh, your awake." Somebody said. I shot up, and saw a guy kneeling besides a pile of leaves I was laying on.
"Who the flying falcons are you?" I asked suspiciously.
"My name is Johnathan, but you can call me john, and my warrior name is BrownFur and i'm sixteen." he said.
"BrownFur?" I said, puzzled.
"Yeah, I'm a warrior, but I wish I got a cooler warrior name since BrownFur is lame." John explained. I nodded understandingly, but really, I had no idea what the heck he was talking about. A second later, a girl walked in the cave we were in.
"He's awake" she noted.
"Yeah, come meet him" John said, smiling at her. She came, and when she was kneeling besides me, john spoke.
"This is Ginger, she's thirteen, and her warrior name is FireShade. She is a W.I.T and it's not fair because she has the better name out of the two of us." John said to me.
"Hi" Ginger said, smiling, "Whats your name?"
"I ain't going to say my name to a couple of cats I literally just met. Also, what does W.I.T mean?" I said.
"It means Warrior In Training." John explained.
"And, well, you can trust us" she said.
"Yeah, plus, if you want us to leave you rot in the forest, then thats okay, cya!" John said grinning. He turned to leave, but I stopped him.
"Okay! Okay! I'll tell you my name! Just please don't leave me here!" I yelled.
"Okay then" He said.
"My name is Michael, and I'm twelve years old. You happy?" I said.
"Yeah" they both said.
"Though I have one question" john said seriously.
"what"
"How did you shapeshift?" He asked me.
"I don't know actually" I murmered. "It just happened"
"Oh." John mumbled,
"John" Ginger said, "We should take him back to camp"
He looked at her. "What? What if the king says something?"
"We'll just say we found him in the territory and that he wants to join."
"Why would he want to join?" he asked.
"Just say that he wants to join because LavaClan didn't treat him right."
"huh. Seems legit"
** Outside Camp **
I don't think this is a good idea. There is a chance I'll get sliced to ribbons because of how I'm an outsider.
"C'mon" John said. "Remember the plan"
"The plan." I said, swallowing hard. "I love the plan"
Ginger and john where on either side of me when we walked through a tunnel with a lot of vines in it. Also, I made sure I was in an animal form. I was a Jaguar by the way. They told me that I could shapeshift into anything I want if I concentrate really hard on the animal I want to turn into. Anyways, when we walked into the camp Johnathan and Ginger were constantly talking about, I saw something that I never knew existed. There were cats everywhere. There some talking in groups, some were playing and running around, and some of them were sleeping. There was one cat that stood out though. He was sitting on a rock that looked like that rock from "The Lion King". What was it called? Priderock. Yeah, it looked like that. He was looking around, probably making sure everything was in order. Then he saw me. He stood up and yowled loudly enough for everyone to hear, and when they heard it, the entire camp got silent, staring at him. He leaped off the rock, which was so high that I probably would have landed flat on my face. He landed on his paws easily though, and padded towards us. When he was infront of me, he
growled. I crouched, and he looked at Johnathan.
"BrownFur! Who is this?" he snarled.
"He's uh.... Um... We found him in our territory..." He stammered, dipping his head respectfully. The guys gaze snapped to me.
"Stealing our prey I presume?" He spat angrily.
"No sir..." I said, terrified.
"Then what were you doing in our territory?" he snapped.
"I..uh..." I stammered. What am I supposed to say?! Then I remembered something.
** FlashBack **
"John." Ginger said, We should take him to the king."
He looked at her. "What? What if the king says something?"
"We'll just say we found him in the territory and that he wants to join"
"Why would he want to join?" He asked.
"Just say that he wants to join because LavaClan didn't treat him right"
"Huh. Seems legit."
** End Of FlashBack **
"I... I want to join your clan" I said, looking at him.
He raised an eyebrow, which I didn't know was possible in cat form. "Oh? And why is that?"
"Um...LavaClan never treated me right sir" I said, trying not to reveal that I was lying.
"Typical LavaClan.." He growled. "What was your warrior name kid?"
Uh-oh... We didn't think that through. I looked behind me, and both Ginger and Johnathan were terrified. Think, think, think. What would be a good answer.
"I...uh..I don't remember sir.."
"What? How can a warrior not remember his name??"
"Um.... Before I came here, they knocked me out and left me in the forest. Then I woke up and found them." I gestured towards Ginger and Johnathan, "They were going to attack me, so I told them what happened and that I wanted to join. So they brought me here"
He looked at them. "Is this true?" He asked.
"Uh... yes sir.." they both said.
He thought about something, then he ran up the giant rock.
"Fine. If you wish to join MythicClan, you must have a battle to prove your honor and prove you are worthy enough to join" He said. "Who would like to battle this child?"
I looked around. I swallowed hard as I saw someone's paw shoot up.
"Ah. My son would like to battle you." He said, grinning. "Step forward you two."
I stayed where I was though, because I was frozen. Then someone grabbed the scruff of my neck, dragged me right below the giant rock, let go, and walked away. That jerk.
The guy looked down at us. "Let the Battle......"
"BEGIN"
