Prologue


I pretended to be taking a nap like the rest of the class but I wasn't I was just laying there. It was nap time but I wanted to learn my ABC's. A soft knocking echoed around the room. I closed my eyes as Mrs Mary hurried past to see to the door. A piercing scream sounded following a gun shot. A few men walked from kid to kid one crouched in front of me, slowly I opened my eyes to look at the man before me. Sifting slightly he lifted me whispering in my ear one word.... "Sleep."

ONE


Alissa


13 years later


Worrior training, the most dreadful time of the day. The only good days are when I get to fight my best friend, Jay. He is a shape shifter, everyone here is. The only difference between me and everyone else is that I can change into anything that I want, they can only shift into one thing. Animal, human, plant, you name it I'll be it.
"Alissa, Jay! Your up."
"Lets go baby girl!" Jay yelled. I rolled my eyes at him and followed him out onto the mat. They handed us the six foot long bamboo poles and we walked to opposite sides of the mat. When the bell rang Jay launched himself at me swinging his bamboo at my legs to knock me over I jumped up and over him swinging at him he turned catching the end of my stick jerking it out of my grip. Then he kicked out his feet trying to kick my feet out from under me. He slipped in sweat and fell and dropped the bamboo stick. I fell to the ground laughing the next thing I hear is the growl of a tiger. I looked up and see him then I quickly picked up the bamboo. This gave me an idea.
I shifted into a panda bear. Jay shifted back and walked over to me. He started to pet my head then I quickly changed into a cheetah and attacted him. Quickly shifting back he fought back.
"Jay! Alissa! Shift back now!" Our teacher screamed at us. We ignored Mr. Monk and kept fighting.
As we fought I quickly got the upper hand pinning him down. I pretended to bite down on his neck when I felt something grab the back of my neck and throw me off of him and across the mat. I shifted back in mid-air and gasped when I hit the ground. Something grabbed both of my arms and picked me up and held my arms behind my back. I started laughing hysterically.
"What's wrong with you?" Everyone looked at me in shock then Jay started laughing too.
"Did you really think I was going to kill him?"
"We all saw you bite down on his neck!"
"You all saw me bite down an inch away from his neck."
"Well that doesn't matter now. Alissa, Jay. go to the office now."
"Wow! Really?" Jay and I asked at the the same time.
"Go now!" We rolled our eyes and walked out of the gym. After we walked out of there he grabbed my elbow and flipper me around to face him.
"This is your fault." He jokes but I slapped him on the shoulder anyway.
"Hey I was just joking!"
"I know!" I said then turned around and ran. Immediately something hit me and tackled me to the ground. The next thing I know Jay was in a push-up position over me. Smiling at me kinda shyly, he brushed the hair out of my face. I looked at him growling "what?" He asked confused.
I sighed and sat up on my elbows where we were only centimeters away and pressed my lips to his. He jerked back as if he didn't know what he was supposed to do then he pressed me harder to the ground and his lips possessing mine. Freezing on top of me Jay jerked up and off me. Backing away he turned and ran towards the office and away from me. What the hell just happened? Do I like Jay? I shook the feeling and stood then walked to the office. Once I got in to the office I took the seat next to Jay. After a couple of seconds I felt him scoot farther away from me. I sighed and looked at the principle. After about five minutes into the lecture something crashed throught the window causing the whole room to collapse. My chair tipped over causing me to hit my face on the floor. Dust and debree flew every where and there were a million shots going of. Jay climbed over to me and covered my with his body. I look over and the principle was right in my face. He pointed to the wall across the room and yelled, "Get out of here! Run as far as you can!".
Jay climbed off of me and slid to the side, "Come on!". I got up and he pushed me in front of him. We got to the wall and we looked for the latch but couldn't find it. We looked back at the principle just as she hit the latch. The door opened and we ran through. I look back just she got shot. She smiled lightly as she hit the latch and the door closed. I stayed there in shock until Jay grabbed my hand and lead me down the tunnel. He pushed me infront of him as we slid down the mud slide. Once we hit the bottom I rolled a few times then stopped and Jay landed beside me. He quickly got up then helped me up and we started running again.
"Did she say how to get out of here?"
"No we have to find our own way." We made a sharp right and saw the end of the tunnel. We jumped over the floor spot that caved in and we were out of there. We dodged bullets, knifes, and arrows across the clearing until we got to the woods.
"Oh shit!" I turn and see Jay on the ground with an arrow in his arm. I run over and helped him off of the ground and into the woods. We got deeper and deeper into the woods until I found a little cave. I help Jay in and he sat by the entrance.
I heard Jay take in a sharp breath, I look at him just in time to see him rip the arrow out of his right arm. I covered the gash with my hand trying to stop the bleeding. I hear the sound of tearing cloth and then Jay put a peice of light blue cloth over the gash. I looked down and part of the bottom half of my shirt was torn off.
"My shirt? Really Jay?" He chuckled a bit but then winced in pain. I moved my hands off of his arm and stood. "Tomorrow, I will go back to the school and see if there is any supplies we could use." Jay nodded in agreement.
"Build a fire or somthing. Its cooling down quickly." Jay said through gritted teeth.
"I'll be back soon. You going to be okay?" He nodded and i walked out the entrance of the cave.

Jay



When Alissa was far enough away from me that she couldn't hear me I let out a groan falling back against the cave wall that was behind me. I must have blacked out because when I opened my eyes again Alissa was on her knees beside me her shirt in her hands gently wrapping it around my arm.
"Your going to get cold Alissa," I hissed at her
"It was already half way torn so it wouldn't matter anyways and its not like I'm shirtless I always wear an under shirt," she sighed finishing up with my arm, "there you go all done now go back to sleep while I get us some food."
"Stay here I don't want you going back out there."
"Ill be fine Jay. we need food and water."
"Alissa please, stay here. Tomorrow when the sun comes back up we'll go together," I begged her I was scared that I would lose her, but I was also scared of being alone. I know it sounds pathetic but I don't really want to die.
"Jay. I need to go." She said standing up and walking away from me.
"Please don't." I begged and she turned back an looked at me. She shook her head and turned back towards the exit and started to walk. Just as she was leaving a huge crash of thunder and flash of lightning hit. Jumping back away from the exit she ran over to me and sat down.
"Yeah, let's go tomorrow." She said as she sat down beside me. "I couldn't find any dry wood so we wont have a fire tonight." I sighed with releif. As another crack of thunder shook the ground Alissa cowered into my side. i put my arm around her and pulled her closer to me. Throughout the night we stayed like that until we both finally fell asleep. Another giant thunder clap woke me from sleep. i felt Alissa clutch onto me tighter. I hugged her to me and quickly fell back asleep. In the morning the storm had past and there was a dim light shining in the cave. I felt Alissa stirring beside me and she sat up.
