___
Nights and days past leaving the two still in there world of danger. They could only keep they're minds racing with the thought of him.
Weeks would pass with only the thought of running.
' run, he's coming. He's coming, don't go back. Keep killing. Don't turn back...he'll be right behind you if you don't keep moving-'
Is all she repeated in her head. All her thoughts he could hear...and he agreed.
He could only stare off into the cold storm as they took shelter in between rocks that became a cave going further in.
They both seemed in daze and in their thoughts knowing they were thinking the same.
A sudden snap made both their heads turn to look outside. Look and see no one but white.
Standing up from the cold ground, I took a step outside.
' what do you see' mason asked
' I don't see anything....' I say as I peek my head around till I spotted a quick movement behind a thick tree
' you saw that' I ask
' yea it was fairly quick so it's a wolf' he sighed as he came closer to my side
We both stayed quiet for a moment before letting growls out.
" that was pretty quick...but you don't look to tough" a females voice spoke out behind the tree
We stayed silent only listening to her and trying to see her figure
"...won't speak huh" she said stepping out now being able to see her.
She was wearing a long cloak covering her body from the cold. Long black hair like and brown eyes. Barely seeing freckles on her skin has she looked in her late 30's to 40's.
' have we seen her before' I ask mason
' I don't know but she seems familiar' he responded
She came closer and with every step the snow crunched under her I started to tense up.
" oh I'm not here to challenge you just, to see what you look like" she reassured only a few feet away from us
Mason started to snarl at her giving her a warning not to try to touch any of us.
" I'm not a threat to you....but your father is and he is coming with a full pack ready to kill"
We both froze at the sudden mention of our father. We both stared at her not knowing how to react.
Suddenly from Mason, thick steam poured off him as i cloud hear the bones of his cracking and then growling becoming more deep and menacing.
Once the steam cleared off, we saw him with his short coat and long hair from between his ears down to his back. His tail curled and much more noticeable scars.
" oh that's cool" she said as she took another step to us
" I'm just here to warn you about him....I am no threat ,I promise that. I know your family doesn't break promise" she spoke in a calm tone
I looked into her eyes seeing nothing but her words, I could only repeat them.
Hearing growling as snow being stepped on I gently grabbed his tail.
" that was close...but you need to listen" she said with a serious tone
' haze?'
' wait...just wait'
"....I have been watching you guys for a while now" she said making mason snarl at her words
" ..I have seen you both fighting others and even ones you didn't know was dearest to you" she spoke
" i see what you are trying to do..but that will only anger him more the longer he waits. You know he's impatient Hazel"
I felt my heart stop. I backed up feeling my fingers trembling a little though I heard shuffling.
Looking back up I saw her pull something from her coat, immediately pushed mason and ran a bit away from her as mason followed in confusion
" oh so you saw" she said as she held a pocket knife in her hands
" you have good eyes Hazel...mason" she spoke our name
" mason you are the weakest of the two" she bluntly said
" you have been through nothing like Hazel has and she has much experience but she still lacks some things..."
We stare at her not understanding why she is staying these things. How does she know
These things.
" I'm here to help you is what I'm trying to say....when your mother died right before she did she said something to me and now I'm here to help you" she explained a bit
" you're lying" I snarled
"...you might not know who I am, that's fine. I'm here to help you like your second mother. Ever since your mother died and your father started to abuse you guys..... you started to lose some memories of the pack only remembering the bad. I will try to be a good mother and take care of you right now" she smiled as she came closer to us but we backed away
' is she lying...' Mia spoke
' I don't think I've ever seen her-'
" please I know you guys don't trust me but I can show you how I knew your mother I was part of the pack" she stated
She took out her hand and showed us her wrist. There it was on her wrist was a mark of a scar.
A scar on our wrist made by him. Holding my hand as the scar on my wrist was faded compared to the one on my finger.
' we still can't trust her can we' mason the asked
' I don't know' I answer as I scanned her
' did you tell Xavier about that' I ask him
' no he asked about a few times but I tell him I don't want to talk about it' he said
"Please you don't have to trust me fully just take your time, but I'm around just call my name...Lea...I want to teach you how to fight properly" she said
I was going to say something when she suddenly collapsed on the ground alerting me
" I'm fine I'm just a bit hurt" she softly smile
The smell of blood entered my nose....filling up all those memories.
I froze as I felt sudden eyes of many on me. The eyes of the people that I've watched their life get taken.
I could see the regrets and tears falling as one were pale blue eyes as the others were a dull green.
Letting a small sob out feeling strange.
' m-mason...I see them I see so much blood...eyes...everywhere why do I see it now...why now' I say as I was stuck in a trance
' please stop I see them too stop hazel' mason begged as growls and grunts escape his lips
" h-Hazel breath, breath sweetie no one is going to hurt you. The blood you are smelling is mine" the woman then said patting my back
I flinched but her touch remained. Looking at her, looking into those brown eyes I felt oddly safe. Her touch felt calming just like mothers. My breathing then became more even as the images in my head started to disappear
" there you go dear...see I mean no harm to you now please get back inside the cave and we can rest a bit more in there" she spoke softly as I felt myself getting pushed a bit
I look back up to meet my brothers identical green eyes as he stares at me in worry.
I gave him a nod indicating I was fine.He then started to rub on me trying to comfort me.
I started to walk to the cave but something popped into my head.
' mason'
' yes Hazel'
' she could have done those marks to her self on the wrist' I say stoping my movement
" what happen you two" she asks
' Keep a safe distance from her Hazel' mason warned
I then shook my head as I looked at her trying to find the source of the blood but I didn't see anything
" you're looking for the blood huh" she questioned
" that blood is right here" she said as she pulled her jacket up to a cut on the side of her stomach bleeding but not to badly
" come on I know you guys have been tired from fighting all week" she said with a small smile
Mason started to walk but to the far side of the cave.
I followed his moves and wrapped myself on him and he did the same. He then snarled at her giving her a warning not to touch us.
She nodded and kept a distance from us as mason put his tail in front of me in a protective manner.
' go to sleep I will keep watch of her' he said
' it's okay I can stay-
' I'm Not asking Hazle Go To Sleep' he snarled
I stared at him for a moment before closing my eyes and resting against his fur coat.
