Chapter 1

Chapter: 1

I opened my eyes and found myself in the middle of a forest with trees around me. I could hardly see anything except shadows of trees and should of howls hooting. Suddenly I heard the rustling of bushes from behind me and then a howl. Everything went still the trees stopped moving from the wind. It felt as if the world stopped, I could not hear a sound, I slowly turned around and saw glowing red eyes looking straight at me. It started moving out of the shadows and what I saw made me gasped. It was an enormous wolf, bigger than normal wolves with black fur, it felt as if the fur was shining where the light of the moonlight fell on it. The fur looked soft as if it was a pet dog and not a wild wolf. The wolf was looking at me with such intensity that it was hard to make eye contact with it, but I felt compelled to do it. Its eyes are so mysterious as if it is not an animal but a human. It feels as if he knows me somehow like we have a bond or a connection and suddenly it started coming toward me slowing and then pounced at me. 

I woke up with a jolt, sweating, shaking all over. My alarm was ringing beside me and I hurriedly turned it off. It was a weird dream, more so because I have been having the same dream for the past week when my dad told me we are moving to a town called Bluemoon (which is a weird name for a town) because of his job. It was quite a shock at first because I will have to leave everything I have ever know, my life, my childhood, my friends, memories, everything but I knew that I couldn’t do anything about it at not until I am 18. 

When I told my friends about this, they were unhappy that I had to go in our senior year, but they knew we could not do anything but promised to make the rest of the days with them memorable and they will keep in touch and even try to come there for some time to meet me. And they made my last days in New York worth it. 

Today was my last day here and I had packed almost everything in my room. My room was pale blue with a king-sized bed in the middle and nightstands on either side, my desk was on the left side of the room with a window where I could get some natural light and could see my backyard. On the right side I had my bookshelf with a lot of books and in front of me was the door to my bathroom and closet. Usually, there are a lot of things in my room and it’s messy but now there are only boxes and my clothes for the day, everything else is packed except my bed, nightstand and other essential things. 

Before I could get out of my bed to freshen up and pack the rest of the things my mom shouted from downstairs, “Wake up Lily Aand get ready fast the moving truck is here!” I could hear the sound of the truck stopping in front of our house and then mom greeting people who will help in taking our furniture to the truck and unloading it. 

I sighed and shouted back, “I will be down in a minute!” and then started my way toward the bathroom to freshen up. I don’t understand how my parents can take this so lightly I mean we are leaving everything we have ever known to go live in a small town surrounded by forests which we never even heard about till now. I know they are also feeling sad about this but they don’t have to pretend everything is fine if they will show me how they really feel then I will also feel encouraged that I am not the only one whose life is going to change. I think that’s what it means to be a parent and an adult to always pretend that everything is fine just to show their children and make them feel better. 

After getting ready I started packing things that I had to carry with me in a duffel bad like my laptop, chargers, toothbrush, makeup, etc. The rest of the furniture will be loaded in the truck. After packing I went down and saw my father and mother sitting in the kitchen waiting for me. 

They saw me and we greeted each other with a good morning. My mom told me that they will eat somewhere because we were very late and can’t travel on the road at night because it is surrounded by forest. 

After some time all the things were loaded in the truck and we were ready to hit the road. I sat in the back seat and plugged my earphones because my parents were talking about there work and all of which was very boring. I closed my eyes and rested my head on the window. I could not sleep properly because of the dream so as soon as I closed my eyes I fell asleep with music as a background voice. 

I woke up suddenly when my father hit the brakes. I asked him, “what happened?” sleepily my eyes barely opened. He told me that “we are stopping to get some food and put some gas in the car, you want something?” 

I looked out and saw that we were in a gas station I told him, “Bring me a bag of chips and water.” He just nodded and went inside the shop. I looked around for my mom and saw that she is filling the car. I rolled down my window and called her, “mom!” She looked at me and smiled, 

“I see you are finally awake, you wanted something honey?” I asked her, “How much time is left till we arrive?” 

She told me about half an hour, now we have to go through the road surrounded by forest. I just nodded and then dad came back with a hand full of food. We ate and then started our journey again. This time I didn’t fall asleep instead I looked out and saw different shops and cars passing by. Sure enough, after some time there were no shops in sight and we could only see cars occasionally. Then we were surrounded by forest on both sides, the forest didn’t look that dense on the outside but I know that it will get denser and denser. 

I was looking out from the window when suddenly saw a black moving thing in the forest. I 

stared at it because it was moving with the car but inside the forest instead of the road. As if sensing my stare it stopped abruptly and looked at me straight in the eyes and I gasped. My parents asked me what’s wrong and I told them it was nothing I just saw an animal. When I looked back it was gone. 

I took a deep breath and didn’t look outside for the rest of the ride. I could only think about one thing that it had red eyes like the one in my dream.

The whole ride I was thinking about those red eyes, and I think my brain got tired with so much stress that I fell asleep again without realizing it. I already hated moving in the town, and now after seeing those eyes, I am despising this town more and more. I know my parents want me to be happy here, that's why for the past week they had been telling me all the good things about the town and how much I will love it, but I don’t think I am starting to like it any more than I did before.

I woke up the next day feeling fresh with a target in mind, starting unpacking today and finish it by today. Tomorrow will be Monday with means that it will also the first day of my new high school which is Bluemoon high (not the most creative name I won’t be surprised if everything here starts with bluemoon, like bluemoon cafe.) and I want to finish my unpacking today and also want to distract myself from the fact that I will be a new student where I don’t know a single person which is kinda nerve-wracking.

The next day, I woke up to my alarm ringing loudly. I was really tired because I didn’t sleep well at night. I don’t know what it was, and why it was following me around. The fear of that creature stopped me from sleeping, and even when I fell asleep, my brain was on full alert mode. I don’t know what is happening to me and why it is happening, but I didn’t have a lot of time to think about it because today was the first day of my school and I had to get ready, or I will be late.

The rest of the period went by smoothly. As smoothly as it could go with students looking at me from time to time. I was getting irritated but decided to ignore them, they will stop doing this after some time. Instead, I concentrated on what Mrs. Cooper was teaching in class, she was a good teacher and I knew I will like her class a lot, which I did.

The rest of the periods till lunch went by smoothly, I didn’t have the last class with Angelina or Kevin but they made sure I found my classes. I sat at the back by the window in these periods wanting to be left alone and I was thankful people didn’t try to approach me, I knew if they asked any stupid questions I would’ve exploded on them.

The next day I woke up and did the normal things that I do usually. I felt a little more at home today maybe because my mom has decorated the house and it wasn’t bare and empty like the first time I saw it. I went to school today and noticed a change in the air instantly, nobody was looking at me not because of the fact that they were now used to me but because they were busy talking about “Mr. Black.”

The whole week passed by as a blur, I had the same routine every day, wake up, go to school, come back, do homework or something else, and then sleep. It was the same thing when I was in New York but there were occasional fun there like parties and going out with friends. I just don’t feel like doing these things here or maybe I just don’t feel too close with people here.

I was still walking occasionally looking around when suddenly I heard the sound of footsteps behind me. They were more than one and were trying to walk slowly. My heartbeat started rising and I could feel my hands sweating. I knew they thought I haven’t heard them, if I started running they notice it so I tried to walk fast but tried to make it go unnoticed by them.

I just can’t believe what just happened to me, I guess I’m still in shock maybe that’s why I haven’t given any reaction yet (except for that crying, but I feel they were more like relieved tears) but I felt disgusted, it left a bad taste in my mouth. My eyes were burning because of the crying.
