I quickly removed my Rod from Mary's Honey pot and got dressed instantly and as I was about rushing out, something knocked me out from behind and I could see black out.
I woke up to a splash of water all over my face and my whole body felt very weak like I was being held down by something. I got flashbacks of perceiving a strange creature coming towards me while I was still at Mary's apartment and also, got flashbacks of when I was knocked out and I must say, my head still hurts badly.
My vision got more clear and i noticed I was deep inside a thick forest, I could hardly see through anything.
I tried activating my blue eyes so I could get my strength back but all my efforts turned into dust, nothing worked. I just lay there like a dead corpse hoping that whoever knocked me out could come around and kill me if possible cause I don't have any atom of strength left in me to fight back.
Then suddenly, I heard foot steps approaching from behind but I was too weak to turn around. You felt you could actually run from me? Didn't I tell you who you are? What's the point in running when you can't escape your destiny? You feel this is some kind of story that you'll get a happily ever after? Your life is filled with blood and rage, there's no sweet part of it boy. I instantly recognised the voice and I knew it was my mean granpa, fuck how did the old man find me?.
Look boy, I just saved your pathetic life and you owe me now...plus, you can't run from me no more cause I've cut off your source of energy and you won't leave here till you can fully transform into a werewolf again and I'm not talking about any half transformation this time around, you have to prove to me that you're worthy to be among the family.
I lay down there speechless and hoping a chance will come where I can escape but seems like grandpa could actually hear my thoughts and he added, don't even think about escaping cause you're very far from home, you'll Prolly get eaten by a wild beast if you move miles away from me... you're just a human now and I'm sure the beast here would be salivating once they perceive a human scent instead of that of a monster like myself.
My hope dropped after a cold reply like that from my granpa, how am I sure this is actually my Father's Dad? My Dad was way too calm and nice to me, unlike him.... he's harsh and he doesn't care if I live or die.
From now on, I'm your trainer and you'll call me Master. If by any means you run into danger, call my name and I'll be there.
He came closer to me and tapped me on my chest, I've just released 5% of your energy and you should be able to move around with this but remember, you still smell like a human and you can't run from here. I sat upright trying to recollect all he has said and with the way things are going, I think I've got no other choice but to obey him. I slowly followed him behind as he led me to an old wooden hut, very different from the other one where I first met him. You are really lucky boy, those creatures that came for you were very smart and there's no way you can beat them in that state that you were, you can rest here.... your training begins tomorrow.
Sleep was far from me that night, I couldn't stop thinking if Mary was alright and how I was gonna run away from this mess I put myself into, what if I didn't run the first day I met him? Would he had treated me differently now? Would I have gotten stronger by now? I wouldn't have to fear the unknown but look at me, I can't even predict what's coming my way neither can I see those dreadful creatures I usually see at night. I know I'm supposed to be happy that I'm human again but something doesn't feel right, just when I got used to controlling what's inside of me, now it's not there anymore. I never had intentions of being a hero but I guess I'll just do whatever I'm meant to do, everyone was born with a purpose in which we must all fulfill and I believed this was mine. I'm meant to protect the humans from the disaster ahead of them but they'd never know what kind of hero was there to protect them, they'd be scared to death if they see my true form too but that was the least on my mind. I stopped thinking for awhile and decided to give sleep a chance and it actually worked.
Day 1 of training
I woke up to a splash of water on my face, my master has turned that to a habit in which I detest the most. Boy, you sleep like you've got more time on your side but you'll work towards that later on but for now, you'll learn some basic things that you never knew you could actually do. He chopped off a tree with his bare hands and told me to make it freeze. I should freeze a tree? Like ice cold? How is a wolf supposed to do that? Deep down I wanted to laugh but my master face was mean when he said it. He held one of the branches of the tree and it instantly froze. How did you do that grandpa? Sorry I meant master..I corrected myself. You're not just a wolf, you're a werewolf. I told you this isn't some kind of story, this is real life. We werewolves get our powers from the moon at nights while it's very cold and we can easily convert that energy to ice. Your body would have to master some of the techniques to do that. But how am I supposed to do that when I'm just a human? Remember you took my powers? I said irritated. Hahahah, you still doubt me after all you've seen and heard. I didn't take your power boy, you took your powers yourself. You believed you were weak, you believed when I told you that I cut off your energy...You even believed when i told you I've released onky 5% of your energy, you believed everything I said and now, you believe you're human also. So boy, you're the only one who took your gifts away from yourself. Now everything was starting to make sense, I got knocked out and I was feeling weak and lightheaded and I guess that weakness was what I gave myself when I woke up, I centralised my thinking to the fact that I'm weak and I'm in a place I don't know. I took a deep breath in and held on to the tree but nothing changed. Concentrate, feel the energy surging inside of you, feel it calling your name...Embrace it's light.
I tried once more but still, nothing happened.
Come let's go for a little hunting, I guess you're hungry. And hey, don't think of me as nice...I can't guarantee your safety while we go hunting, just don't die on me.
