The Girl who Cried Wolf by mobilehighlighter26 (best short books to read .TXT) 📖

I got a doll from my dead grandma you idiot.”

Her friends ‘Awe’ and give her pats her on the back. A new voice pursues behind me “Well you shouldn’t have brought it up huh Chrystal?” I turn to see a very pretty brunette girl behind me hands on her hips, glaring at Chrystal. Chrystal smiles “Hey Arynn what’s up buddy and I brought it up because she’s a little freak and uh so are you, bye bye.” She tosses her hair and sends an evil glare to me. What I wrong with everyone here literally this is going to be the worst year ever.
The Attack

The rest of the day flew by, papers, pencils, rustling were all I could pay attention to. I was grateful for “Arynn” I think that was her name, for helping me, I wanted to tell her that but I couldn’t find her all day.

~~~~~~~~~

I walked home avoiding Grieg’s calls to me, after a while I think he just gave up. I couldn’t help but just take a look around this town, it was big enough there had to be something worth time out here. I walked a couple blocks and found a library quickly speeding inside. I grab a book, not even bothering to look at the title or anything about it, and read I am swept up into this book, so into it that when I am ready to leave its already eight o’ clock. Dark. I gather the book and put it back into the place I found it and ran out of the library. There are no streetlights on; I’m surrounded by a purple darkness that stretches across the town. There is no one out either. I hear slamming of doors and gates as I walk by houses and businesses, evil glares tossed at me in a very unfriendly way. Way to roll out the welcome wagon. Without thinking I run into the forest “Bright idea Kate you’re going to get yourself murdered out here.” Great now when my conscious begins to tell me these things there automatically going to happen. A growling of an animal startles me and I fall face down into the brush. I push myself back up this time running “Also another bad idea jeez what’s wrong with you.” The growling begins to get closer until I can feel the animals breath on my back. With the speed of a cheetah the animal pounces from behind and bites my arm, the pain is searing hot, another bite on my other arm makes me woozy “C’mon Kate adrenaline you can do this FIGHT, FIGHT.” I punch the animal with all my might; its piercing yellow eyes seemed to peer into me with so much hate and malice. I punch the animal {who know I know is a wolf} in the nose making it bounce back. Adrenaline gone I have to crawl another searing pain in my right leg as the wolf try’s to pull me back, I kick him in the nose and sprint, half limping home. I am greeted my Sam who takes me in and patches me up, but I’m still not ok.

Where Did You Go

I know why this town is so silent now; they’re scared, of what’s out there. What I know is out there. The wolf did bite me but the pain is gone now, not even a scratch to show. I sometimes feel like I’m crazy but the reminder questions Sam gives me always makes me recall the horror. My grandparents should be coming back in a couple of days, what do I tell them “Hi I’m Kate your granddaughter uh yeah while you were away I was mauled by a wolf, I know you don’t see any marks but that’s just because they disappeared” Yep that’s not what I’m going to say. Why is it me that has to be the different one? I bet you if it was one of my sisters they would have been traumatized and badly wounded, but no I’m the one that always gets into trouble and always has no proof. Is it weird that I can’t see that wolf anymore? Sometimes I feel like it’s out there but I can’t see him, I know the wolf that attacked me wasn’t him, my wolfs eyes are to kind, and they are blue but Sam thinks it’s him because he’s the only one that gets close, well at least close enough. But I know it’s not him.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~MARCUS P.O.V. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It’s like she can’t see me, I’m still in the same spot, she still looks at me but it’s like she is not looking at me it’s almost as if she is looking at the air around me, her eyes still searching for me in the woods I feel like yelling IM RIGHT HERE. I thought she was something different, one of us different, humans literally cannot see us unless we want them to, the only reason Sam can see me is because his father was a werewolf, Sam’s only part wolf. But I was invisible the first day I saw Kate and she did still see me but now, it’s like she tuned me out. I can still smell her though she doesn’t have any sent of wolf on her and that is what puzzles me, her scent is very flowery, an earthy smell, sweeter than a wolves, our smell is more musky and deep. I have never recognized a sent like that, usually humans have similar scents but hers is unique, so unique it scares me a little.

Half Breed

Sam thinks I should stay home for the rest of the week, he says I have ‘emotional pain’. That’s not true, I don’t even care anymore of what happened I just want to find out why it happened, and where that wolf came from. I grab my book bag, its light now that almost everything I have fell out during the attack. I’m not going to worry about it though, I’m going to go back into the forest when it’s still light out and get my stuff back, and look for anything interesting that will help me figure out why that wolf would pull a random attack. I am almost to school now and I can’t help but feeling nervous, did anyone hear my scream? Did someone come looking for me and get attacked also? I push open the door to get inside the school, and can you say chaos. People where yelling at each other beating each other, pulling hair and accusing people of….of being the wolf. There was a group of three near a window who were not fighting but I could tell they were whispering urgently at each other. I recognized that one of the three was Arynn I was about to step forward to join them, I was sure Arynn wouldn’t mind helping me out and one of the boys she was with looked up, looked right at me. I am instantly reminded of my wolf, His reddish brown hair, his sharp blue eyes even his face. Arynn looks at him then at me and smirks and elbows him in the gut, he BARES his teeth, and she backs off his head turning to look at me again, but I turn so I can’t meet his eyes. I find the door and quickly leave, Sam was right I shouldn’t be at school.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I end up in the forest and find all of my stuff, put it in my book bag, and begin looking for paw prints. In the process of looking I’m interrupted by a voice like tinkling bells “Hello there, Faerie girl!” I look around and don’t see any one “Yes you over here!” I look once more still seeing nothing “Down here” I feel something knocking on my shoe and look down I gasp in shock at what I see, A girl with long black hair a pink dress, black angel wings, you would think it was a costume but her size is crazy, She’s about as big as a soda can. “Hello fellow faerie I need your help” My eyes widened “What do you mean by faerie” then her eyes widened “You mean you’re not of fey species” She runs begins to panic “Help! Demon! Demon!” I follow her “hey I’m not a demon and I’m not a uh faerie I’m human” she stops her panic “what then how can you see us” her sentence cuts off “oh I see you must be half breed” I scoff “half what?” she places her hand on her hips “half demon, half human, half faerie, there are only a few of you out there that have the sight”
“Oh” was all I could say
Then something insane happened, she grew to my height exactly. “And you know what they do to half breeds with the ‘sight’ right?”
I back away two steps “n-no, no I don’t”
“They cut their eyes out and sell them to the black markets”
I quiver and she laughs “I’m kidding silly half breed”
I now notice that her wings were gone, replaced by a backpack and her dress swapped out for hiking clothes.
“Uhm how did you do that?”
Her eyes brighten “Oh just a simple glamour spell, you would be surprised how many Demons, Faeries and other creatures glamour themselves”
“There is more?”
“Yep pretty much every ‘Fairy Tale’ monster or creature is based off of something real”
My mind reeled “E-even Werewolves?”
“Yes even them, I bet you have noticed, this town is full of the beasts”
“Yea I have noticed”
