His Quest...

" Meaning, " Logan asked confused.

" The connections are important for beginners and it last for seven days to a maximum of two weeks. But if the connections continues after two weeks, then, certainly that person's psyched level needs to be checked. These weird connections prove a lot of things. It could be one's origin, condition obsession, determination, ignorance, parents or relationships, that can influence connections. Sometimes, instincts, self-consciousness, interest, fear, eagerness, conscience and beginnings can be the cause to these weird connections, and, although, I have never heard of this, but, I think one's relationship also influences connections ___"

" Are you indirectly saying I am related to a werewolf? " Logan asked.

Melissa stared at him speechlessly, then she spoke up, " do you reform when the full moon or the red moon is out? "

" What is the meaning of that? Heaven no! I have never reformed and I do not reform when the full moon or whatever is out, " Logan said seriously.

" If you don't, then, you are certainly not related to a werewolf or else your mum cursed you... "

Logan stared at her fiercely and obliviously.

" Do not mind me, " Melissa said laughing. " I will carry out a research on behalf of you. All you have to do is to tell me how, where, when and what do you feel when you see a werewolf and you have to confirm it for like three times before I can start my research for you. "

" Are you sure this is gonna work? "

" Believe me, this is absolutely gonna work. I believe in myself and in my skills, " Melissa said, tentatively.

Logan nodded. " I hope it does, because, I really need to get to the bottom of this. Well can you give me an advice on how I can get back to my department without serving my punishment?"

" I will advice you to go hunting on your own, you don't need to go back to the department for the next three days. Or else you want a detention with your teacher and I'm sure you know that staying with a boring and annoying woman is worse than three days off the department. It's better you are off the department for three days, than going on a detention with your teacher because I know her very well, she is a no nonsense woman."

" Oh come on. You shouldn't bad mouth people. I'm sure you don't mean___"

" I'm very serious Logan. Go to the department and see for yourself. She's not going to let you go off easily. She's going to punish you. And believe me, staying with her for three minutes is enough tension and you won't survive it. Now, imagine if she finds out that you can't hurt a werewolf, believe me you will be doomed. Whatever the head tells you to do, do it and you will never meet her till you graduate. Meanwhile, I have to go now. My mum is waving behind. I'll see you later, it was nice chatting with you. "

Logan turned his head slowly to see her mum. " She's kind of creepy and weird but so beautiful, " Logan muttered.

" I heard that, " Melissa said, her face was a ferocious mask. Okay I have to go right now, bye logan. " She wore her backpack. " Go hunting alone, it's gonna help you Logan. "

Logan raised his eyebrows. " Have a nice day. Now, get going, your mum is waiting for you. "

Melissa just stood staring at him.

" Come on, you have to go. Don't keep that creepy woman waiting. "

Melissa frowned.

" Oh come on, I'm just kidding, " Logan said flat-footed. He stood up after eating a mouthful of bacon. " I also have to go. I think I will take your advice. I will go to the wood and check if I can hunt on my own, without my head of department. So, goodbye, I'll see you tomorrow. "

" Of course you will. So friends, right? " She said bringing out her hand for a handshake.

Logan looked at her and her outstretched hand and at her again, then he smiled. He shaked her of course we are friends. "

Then she hurried off to her mum who was standing akimbo. " Sorry mama, sorry for keeping you waiting, " she said as she held her mom's hand. " Let's go. "

Logan hurriedly went to the woods, he dropped his backpack and went deeper into the woods, hoping to find a werewolf he can hunt. He took out his silver arrow. Suddenly a werewolf's figure passed him in a blur. He slowly his behind a tree watching the werewolf.

He crept out of his hiding-place and followed the werewolf.

Meanwhile, the werewolf maneuvered him to a place.

Instincts warned Logan and at once he stopped following the werewolf.

The werewolf realised it and stopped.

Logan had lost concentration, this was the best time for the werewolf to attack.

But the werewolf did not attack. It seemed delighted watching Logan lost in thought. The werewolf slowly moved closer to him trying to detect something from Logan. He pounced on Logan, Logan felt his pulse rise as his heart beat hammered against his throat.

There was a long eye contact between them.

Logan felt he recognized the werewolf but that didn't make sense. He realized the werewolf was in quest of something just the way he was.

He quickly pushed the werewolf to the floor and ran to were his backpack was. He quickly grabbed his backpack and ran out of the woods.

The werewolf slowly ran back to its pack.

Logan was confused, upset and worried.

His head of department's words burrowed back to his sagging memory. He battled within himself, trying to hold on to the lies he told himself, 'I have only a mum.' He realised, how wrong the lies were. He should have known he was really lying to himself. Everyone had a dad, so why wouldn't he?

He kept on asking himself this question as he went home. His mum really needed to give him an explanation. Why was he beginning to feel restless? He did not know, but he was ready to do anything to know the truth, whether he had a father or if he was a bastard.
