I slowly made my way back home through the forests, carefully. I did not want to get caught by any of those uncivilized council thugs incase they were searching for me. I then walked briskly afraid of the hollows that came with the night. The moon was high up in the night blueish- navy sky with a few stars twinkling in the distance. The forest was quiet, deathly and deafeningly quiet except for a few critters of the dark that haunted the peaceful night. The smell of the semi wet soil penetrated my nose. I was heaving with anger, with fear. Was my family okay? Had my sister really been ravished? How could my life have crumbled to this! That Dumuzi, I felt so much anger for him even though he was in prison.
Suddenly, I felt a fear I had never felt before. My heart broke at the thought of my sister, and how those men must have treated her. Deep inside of me was a hesitating feeling urging me to turn back and not return home but I kept on on m

Chapter FifteenThe sun's rays lit up my room through splinters in my curtains at dawn and I found my self awake, awake with a heart too heavy to bear the burdens brought forth by yesterday's troubles. I lay staring at the ceiling and ruminating on what was to become of my young life. My father wanted me to go hide out in Egypt, to commence my life as a slave under the supreme pharoahnic rule as there was no hope and no abundance for Atlantis citizens like I in that land of the living deities. I was scared. I was afraid of the unknown.It was in that moment I gained a whim of courage ruminating on how I was going to face my problems that something suddenly happened. My sister knocked on my door, as if she knew I needed her in this bleak moment."Come in. I uttered."Wakey wakey, aren't you going to school today Anathi?"",School? I asked her.

As soon as we got home, I collapsed on my warm bed and lay there ruminating on the day's events. The evening was warm and I paced to open my window gazing at the moon for a moment. The same lunar mother that had cursed me with this gift that would see my father going to all ends for it. I had seen it all and I was no longer willing to see how far my father was willing 5o go in order to have me transform. I sat on my bed. I had a horrible headache from smelling the smelly strange herbs the snake spirit had blown in my face. I still shivered. I was still shaken by the day's events. And to think being a wolf blood and seeing my family transform still does not scare me as much as when I saw the woman changing into a snake. I lay in the bed as my back ached and my painful ankles and joints tormented me from the long journey we had made back home. We had travelled the rest of the a

I took a long bath. My body ached, I had deep marks and finger prints imprinted on me and the places he had viciously touched me were still painful. After my bath I went to my sister and cried as I hugged her and told her the story. She felt remorse for me. I did not even know about my first transformation until I went to school the next Monday. Rumour was circulating and I was popular and i did not know why. First people who never ever knew I existed where speaking to me as if we were long time friends the most popular guy in school wanted to have lunch with me. I agreed but he never showed up. Later I would find out he did not even know what I looked like so he sent his friends to talk to me and take a photo of me. My friend told me my previous date, had gone crazy and was telling eveybody that I had turned wolf on him, literally and ran away during our date. Had he seen me? I was scared. What if this story got out of hand and I ended up in a lab with scientists conducting experim

For some, puberty was a beautiful transition from naivety, girlhood, candidness into, womanhood, into proficient independence, but for me it was all nothing except ugliness, pimples, hormonal changes and mood swings. Sometimes I always wished I could show my school mates how cool I was. I had visions were I would be bullied by my bully Carly and suddenly , I would morph into my wolf form and intimidate her in front of everybody and they would be amazed and they would cheer for me and would start loving me. I was never much of a dreamer when it came to popularity and all those high school social classifications. I liked the fact that I was different. I loved the fact that I was an introvert. I took pride in the fact that I was deep, deep in knowledge and i was wise. Deep in internal ambiances and I my silence was serene. My teacher called me wise beyond my years. An old soul in a seventeen year old's body.I was sort of considered a late bloomer in "wolf terms." Every body got

This memory lingered within me, living in my mind that when ever I felt insecure about my self , about my body, it would refreshen.

When i arrived I was disappointed to find no one. I thought they were playing a joke on me. I wanted to burst into tears, but then from the corner of my eyes I noticed them. The woods were wet, from the drizzling rain. The smell of wet grass, leaves and wet mud filled the air. My wolf senses picked up the smell of daffodils that stood planted near to the burial shrine, miles away from were i waited. This shrine was a place that people in my town commemorated for it held an important place in their hearts. Great ancient Atlantic kings were buried there and the place was secluded and guarded. From were I was at, I could sense the woods spread miles away until reaching the ocean. First I sensed the sound of their paws against the wet ground as they approached. Then I saw them, large grey and black wolves heading in my direction. Their fangs hung out of their mouths causally. I was scared. I climbed the tree I had been leaning on screaming and they stooped right below me and I watched i
