The sun had risen and shadow realized she fell asleep her den was
warm as sun light started to flood into her den she thought about
what had happened last night and pushed the rock out of the way she
felt worry flood her mind "did they not know about them sliver was
just worried about the boar?" She shook her head "why should you
care what happens to them?" But she couldn't help worrying the boar
never got this close expect that one time and she nearly died she
choked back the memory of that day and went to look for prey
Silver woke up panicked. His breathing was tense. It took him a
moment to calm. He looked over at Issa and Fred to make sure they
were still sleeping. He went down the ladder outside. He went to
Shadow's den looking for her
Shadow saw sliver walking towards her and went over to greet him
"hey what's on your mind you only ever come see me when your
worried." She looked at him and knew she was right he was worried
or at least looked like it
He gave a look like he was struggling with words. He looked around
amd then at Shadow "I... him...I felt that you were worried about
something. And yes. I am too. I'm worried about Issa. And you for
some reason"
Shadow sighed and looked at him "you don't know do you?" She looked
him straight in the eyes "there are more beasts than the boar and
they all intend to kill hybrids." Her voice was blank when she said
it but then she tried to lighten the mood "do you think the fox
knows I'm younger than her?" She snickered
He held his hands together feeling more worried "We're both in
damger then" He lightly laighed "I don't know. I do know you're
both cute though" He laughed nervously. Hoping she wouldn't kill
him for calling her cute
"I have one thing to say" she did a dramatic pause "IM GAY! Anyways
me and you can fight well but your girlfriend can't I legit pounced
on her she's like 3 or 4 years older than me she'll be the one in
danger."
"Yeah. I know" He looked around the forest checking to see if Fred
jumped down again. He didn't "She's... Not my girlfriend" He gave a
nervous look "She's strong enough to handle her own but she doesn't
know that yet. I sense a lot of untapped strength in her. She just
doesn't really like conflict"
"maybe but I have to ask what animal are you I've never known and I
doubt your a pure blood." Shadow saw conya overhead the crow often
brought news to her "might be able to tell but I'm a wolf." She
didnt mention the dragon part of her.
He studied her already knowing what she was "I'm a wolf vampire. A
silver wolf to be more specific. Which is why I have silver hair
and silvery blue eyes" He looked up seeing Conya. He looked back at
Shadow "I have these weird powers"
"Most of us do it's pretty normal for us but not for them."
She wasn't surprised it wouldnt be normal to not have them she
didn't want anyone to know hers however and she never showed her
dragon side or her left eye there was a lot of things she hid
"One of them is knowing what someone near me is feeling or
sometimes thinking. You hide a lot from others" He looked at Shadow
curiously. He looked in her left eye like he was looking into her
"Yeah but that's not really something I want to share but I will
tell you one of mine I can reverse peoples powers"she stared at him
"so don't try that again ever."
"I can't help it. I won't. I don't want to get killed yet" He
looked up shivering at what he saw. He pushed it away and looked in
the direction of the treehouse
"Wanna check on them?" She looked at him with understanding and
walked over to the tree house she looked at him"you coming?" Conya
landed on her shoulder
Shadow climbed up the ladder lissi was still asleep and Fred was
walking around the room shadow walked over to Fred and sat down
next to him "see it's fine," she looked at lissi and added "for
now."
"I wonder why friends are important why we feel the need to have
them no matter how many times we say we don't want friends we want
friends anyways no matter how many people betray us we want
friends." Shadow scratched Fred's neck "I'll explain the beasts
when your girlfriend wakes up."
"I often wonder the same. But different. She was my only friend. My
first friend. The only one who was kind to me" He scratched Fred's
back. Fred smiled happily and was loving the attention "That thing
was following me. But only attacked once. I did stab it's paws so
it couldn't climb up after me"
