Chapter1
I would like to tell
you a story about the day I nearly died. It started as a normal day. Waking at
7 I quickly ate breakfast and ran out the door so I could get to school early.
My friends were all
there waiting for me at the gate . But the school bullies were also waiting and
there seemed to be no way past them.
I had already
decided what I was going to do. I was going to fight back and then I saw the
girl I have a crush on at the gate with my friends. I couldn't show myself up
in front of her.
Amelia Thomson was the nicest girl in the school and always
stuck up for me if I wasn't being an idiot. This alone made me like her but she
was also really good looking and was amazingly funny.
My brain started
ticking as I walked closer to my friends, the bullies stopped moving and stood
up straight as if to attention. I tried to ignore them but it was difficult.
The biggest one of them walked up me and started talking.
"Stay away from
Amelia she's mine" he said to me.
"I'm afraid I
can't do that sorry" I said as I braised myself for the punch that was
sure to follow.
"OH SURE YOU
CAN" he screamed.
"I don't have
to" I said patiently.
"OH YES YOU
DO" he was getting angry now.
"Why" I knew
but I wanted to be sure.
"YOU KNOW
WHY" he spat.
I started backing
away knowing that at one word the others would come to help finish me off for
good.
It was such a shame
because I wanted to deal with these mongrels once and for all doing the school
a favour but in return I might end up miserable because I will lose the
friendship of Amelia.
What happened next
was amazing Brandon Gee and my other friends came and stood in v formation with
me at point it was all part of the pack code. We all agreed to protect each
other when need be.
"Stop guys"
I whispered I knew that I would have to back out now or there would be a fight.
"No we all
agreed you can go we will take care of these ones " Thomas said.
"But there’s
only five of you".
"And what about
our pack promise “he said.
"And what about
Amelia" I retorted.
"Nothing “he
answered
"Well she is a
shape changer as well and I was meant to be the Alfa of this pack maybe I’ll
start a new one" I pointed out.
"If you do that
you will have to move out and find your own land" he whispered.
"Or you step
down" I suggested.
This got him to stop
and think so I took this time to make my move. I pushed one of the bullies and
ran making sure to place an unbreakablespell on my friends so they couldn't follow leaving the bullies to come
after me.
My plan worked the
bullies followed and my friends stayed still, glued to the ground. I knew it
would only be a matter of time before they caught me so I left the school
grounds and into the woods across the road.
I changed into my
wolf form as soon as I was in the cover of the trees. In this form I could run
faster than a cheetah or any other wolf like me. It also helped me communicate
with other animals meaning I could persuade the other animals in the woods to
help me instead of the bullies.
I soon lost the other
wolves but I knew they were close because I could hear the thoughts a lot
louder than if they far away. I wondered why they hadn't found me yet if I
could hear them they should be able to hear me.
"Callum where
are you I'm worried " said Amelia
""Over
here"" I thought.
""Were I
can't see you""she thought
""Wait you
can hear my thoughts"" I thought louder now.
""Yes you
stupid wolf now get down here"" she thought impatiently
""I'm
coming"" I sighed.
""Good”
“she thought.
As I jumped from the
tree I was in I landed in front of another wolf. Scared I started to growl not
knowing who it was.
All of a sudden
Amelia came out from behind a tree and told Charlie to stand down. He whimpered
but fell back and set up a perimeter. I changed back to my human form so I
could talk.
"Hay" I
said
"Hi Callum you
shouldn't have done that James is angry now and so is Thomas “she said hugging
me tight.
"Thomas will
calm down but I'm not sure about James “I answered.
"Ok then let’s
get to school" she sighed.
The walk back to
morph academy was quick and quiet. No body moved as I change into my eagle form
and flew up a tree waiting for the head to sound the siren for assembly.
When Bethany came up
to comfort me I flew away, I wasn't in the mood for her problems right now.
""LEAVE ME
ALONE"" I thought to everyone.
I changed back into
human form in my hotel room closing the window after me.Nobody was going to disturb me for a long
time.
"" Callum
are you ok"" I heard Amelia think.
""No""I thought.
All of a sudden there
was a light tapping on my window, I looked out and saw an eagle lightly tapping
on the window. I opened the window and it swooped in changing into Amelia 's
human form.
"Oh hay"I
said.
"Callum you have
to stop doing this you should just do as they ask you" she said after a
long silence.
"But your my friend
and unless you tell me otherwise ill always stand by you" I snapped.
"Ok then just
stay out of there way" she sighed.
"You saw what
they did this morning".
"Yes but I know
that you planed to fight not run away" she countered.
" FINE" I
growled.
"Now let me
comfort you you've had a bad morning" she said quietly.
"I'm sorry I'm
just fed up with all the bullies and I can't take much more. It won't be long
before I snap and someone gets hurt" I whispered.
Amelia started to pat
my back and said I should be fine as long as I stayed away from her. I kept
trying to tell her that I couldn't but each time I started crying.
By the end of the day
I was behind on nothing even though I missed first lesson. Amelia stayed close
most of the day as if to keep me from doing any thing rash.
When school ended I
went to Thomas and the others to apologies for what I had done but I couldn't
find them
Chapter 2
"That's it I'm
fed up with that school I'm leaving" I screamed at the boxing bag.
""Callum
are you ok?"I heard someone think.
"Who's
there"I said.
""It's
Alexandra from school come out you've been in there for days"" she
thought.
"Can't you come
back later I'm busy" I said as I thumped the boxing bag.
""I'm
afraid not""her thoughts were clearer now.
"Fine come
in"I hit the bag again and then took of my gloves.
"Hi Callum are
you sure you’re ok"Alexandra said.
"I'm fine I just
miss Amelia"I said tacking a drink.
"We'll why don't
you go see her"she suggested.
"I will when I'm
calm"I growled.
"Ok. Do you want
to eat?"She asked
"Guess so"I
said
As we walked from my
room on campus to the campus take away I took a sharp turn back to my room.
""Nice try
Alexandra"" I thought
"It wasn't my idea
“she cried.
"Then
who's"I snapped.
"Ryan Hayley's
"she confessed.
"Oh" I said
surprised.
"Sorry he can be
really persuasive at times" she said.
"Ok" I said
"I'll go".
"Good thank you
so much" she said suddenly happy.
"Oh hi Callum
long time no see"Amelia said when we reached the chippy.
"Hi Amelia I'm
sorry about last week" I whispered.
"Oh its fine
James was just being a mutt as usual ' marking his territory' ha I belong to no
one" she said softly.
"I know but were
friends and I don't want to lose that" I said.
"You won't"
she said.
"Guys we've got
extra class see you later" Amelia said grabbing hold of Ryan and dragging
him away.
"Ha more like
detention" I laughed.
"Yea
probably" Amelia agreed.
"Fancy going and
singing" I asked
"No let’s play
instrumental" she said.
"Yea that sounds
good" I said.
We walked to the
music block in silence and set up our equipment ready to play. We were about to
start playing when the head teacher came over to tell us about the secret
valentine post box. When he saw that we were busy he turned and left.
"That would have
been awkward" Amelia said.
"Yup" I
said.
Three hours later we
left the music block to go have lunch and meet up with Ryan and Alexandra. The
only problem was that they were nowhere to be seen. That made three that had
gone missing as far as I knew in the last week.
"What is going
on that three of my friends gone missing" I said.
"I don't really
know" said Amelia.
Well were going to
have to get to the bottom of this I don't like it" I said.
Just as I finished
speaking my phone rang and the caller I'd was Ryan's so I answered curious as
to where he was.
"Where are you
and Alexandra" I asked.
"Oh we're at the
English block" he said.
"Ok wait there
me and Amelia will come to meet you" I told him.
"Ok" he
said.
And so we walked to
the English block which was good because I had a book that I had written and
wanted my English teacher to check it over before I publish to a minors
publishing company specifically for under eighteens.
When we entered the
English block I when're straight to E17 to hand over my book glad to have
remembered.
"What's
this" my teacher asked.
"It's the book I
told you about two weeks ago" I replied.
"Oh. So what do
you want me to do with it" she asked.
"I was hopping
that you could correct any spellings" I said.
"Ok come back
tomorrow and it should be done" she said.
"Thanks miss, oh
and have you seen Ryan or Alexandra anywhere around here" I said.
"No sorry"
she replied.
"Ok thanks again
and see you tomorrow" I said.
"See you
tomorrow Callum" she said.
I walked back down to
the door into the English block and saw Ryan and Alexandra kissing in a corner.
I thought about leaving them there but they would be kicked out of the school
for inappropriate des plays of affection and it would be permanent.
"Right you two
heads office now" I said in the same tone as mr Philips.
"What, what,
what" Ryan said looking around "oh it's just you".
"Yeah but you
should stop now or else" I said.
"Ok, ok, ok
boss" he said.
"Now let’s go do
something fun" I said.
"We'll WE
were" said Alexandra.
