“Are you sure you’re going to be okay?” Michelle asked. I really must have looked bad for Michelle to be this concerned. “I can drive you home and my dad can follow us....” Michelle rambled on, but I could hardly hear what she was saying. The buzzing in my ears was now a roar, like a freight train running back and forth through my head from ear to ear.

“I have to go, Michelle,” I said, pulling away from the curb, barely giving her time to close the door as I sped off. But I didn’t make it home. I made it as far as Granby Lake when the shaking was so uncontrollable that I had to pull over.

I threw the car into park and the keys under the mat in the driver’s seat. My body was shaking and quivering as pain coursed throughout my body. I screamed, almost a howl, as I ran for the woods. I didn’t know why, but I had the sudden urge to run, to let the coolness of the evening air soothe my skin... to be free.

My body shook uncontrollably as I ran faster than I had ever run before into the forest. The quivering ran from my hands and traveled throughout my body as I ran even faster, pushing harder, losing control of my body. What was happening to me? I screamed as I looked down to see my hands shimmering, changing into giant silver paws, but my screams ended in a howl as the quivering traveled down the length of my body, morphing and changing every cell. By instinct, I leapt into the air and my clothes shredded into pieces. I landed on four paws, running even faster. To where? I didn’t know. Was I going crazy? I looked around and nothing looked familiar. Where was I?

“This can’t be happening to me!” I thought, sprinting through the forest into the Colorado Rockies, as variations of pine and aspen rushed pasted. If I were in my human form, I would have been crying. As it was, dampness seeped from my eyes, soaking the fur underneath. I was almost to Wyoming when I heard voices inside my mind. I am going crazy! I thought to myself, as my powerful claws dug into the lichen along the forest floor, propelling my body even faster. To where? I didn't know.

Skye crossed the room to Bash and gave him a manly handshake after Millie and Michelle went upstairs. "Good to see you here. You okay?"

Bash nodded. "As well as can be expected." He nodded toward me. "Jessica offered me a position with the pack, and I accepted."

"Congratulations!" Skye said, giving him a pat on the back. "This is a good pack."

Bash let out a deep breath. "So, are they still looking for me? Hell's Fury?"

Skye's expression was suddenly serious. "Yes."

Bash raised an eyebrow. "And do you believe it? That I would turn cannibal?"

Skye shook his head. "No, you're definitely not a Wendigo. I've seen you in your Hellhound form."

"But we were going to try and help with that, too," I interjected.

Bash inclined his head in the direction where Millie went. "Yeah, but it doesn't look like the Healer is going to want to help me anytime soon."
