Early in the morning, I slowly and gently drove heading to the school using my service bike.
I slowly took off my helmet and parked the bike and securely locked it when suddenly, a luxurious black Lamborghini stopped and park beside me.
It was Roger Jackson. Every student, especially the girls were drooling at him. Aside from being handsome and hot, he comes from a wealthy family.
He has been our Lacrosse Captain for three consecutive years. He was a spoiled brat that everything he wants, he always gets.
“Dude, you should watch where you are parking your cheap bicycle. I don’t want my car to get a stain from that.” He boastfully said.
“Yow… Roger, let’s go!” One of his friends called.
I was completely felt relieved after he abandoned me in the parking lot. I am lucky that he didn’t beat the hell out of me and slowly went inside the building.
”Hey, what was it all about with Roger?” Kevin curiously asked after he saw Roger talking to me.
“No, it’s nothing. Hey, I want to show you something.” I then slowly raised my shirts and showed the adhesive bandage on my stomach.
“Ohh… What the hell was that bro?”
I gently put back down my shirts.
“A bite. It was too dark to see much but I am pretty sure it was some kind of a wolf.”
He slowly scratched his head in disbelief. “A wolf bit you? Not a chance.” He then teasingly laughed.
“I heard a wolf howling!”
“No, you didn’t. Stop the nonsense, all right?”
“What do you mean, “No I didn’t”? How did you know about what I saw and heard?”
Kevin was the type of person who was hard to let him believe your story not unless he would see and hear it himself.
“Simply because Green Hills doesn’t have any wolves, okay? Not in like, over a thousand years.
I only ended up frowning my face after knowing he always insists on his own beliefs.
After the classes ended, I decided to go home early, as my body seems on fire like hell. Perhaps, it’s because of the infection I got from the wound.
When I got home, I immediately went to the bathroom to take a bath. As usual, my mom was not around in the house as she had her night shift in the hospital.
After I took a bath, my body temperature also descended, and made sure that all the doors were locked afterward.
The only thing that has left open was the window of my room with a ladder on the side of it. That is my emergency exit in case of unexpected incidents might happen in the house.
I was seriously looking at the moon.
“Aah…” I screamed extremely.
I was completely freaking out when Kevin’s head surprisingly showed up in the window
I have not completely moved on about what happened to me last night and the wound proved it.
“Wooh…Wooh! It’s just me, bro.” Kevin shouted extremely.
“Kevin, what are you doing?” I furiously asked in be anxious.
“What am I doing? You were not answering your phone. I have been calling you, like a hundred times this evening. And why do you have a bat?” He replied exhaustedly.
“Oh, I thought you were some kind of theft or the same beast that attacked me last night. You cannot blame me for being cautious.”
“A what?” He then descended and went inside the room.
“Look, I know it’s a bit late, but you got to hear this. I saw my dad leave thirty minutes ago. Dispatched called. They brought with them every officer from the Green Hills Police Department and even the State Police.” Kevin added.
“What for?” I curiously asked.
“Report says two joggers found a body in the woods tonight.”
“A dead body?”
“No, a body of water. Yes, you idiot. A dead body of course.”
“You mean like murdered?”
“Nobody knows yet. Just that it was a girl, probably in her thirties.”
I frowned in confusion. “Hold on a sec, if they already found the body, what are they looking for?”
“That’s the best part. They only found half of the body.” He then stood up out of the bed. “Were coming.”
Leaving no choice, I am also intrigued by what happened to the girl. Perhaps, it might be the dog I encountered last night attacked her.
When we arrived at the woods, we immediately indulged the dark cold smog in the forest.
“Umm, just out of curiosity, which part of the body are we looking for?” I confusedly asked.
“Huh, I didn’t think about that.” He grinned helplessly.
“And, what if whoever killed the girl is still out here?”
“Also, that my friend, that something I don’t know. Will you please just shut up so we could focus on looking?”
I did not say a single word after that. Instead, I followed Kevin wherever he was heading.
After a few minutes walk, I felt immediately exhausted, especially I am walking slowly because of the wound.
Kevin also felt exhausted. That makes the two of us now.
Moreover, Kevin was already a hundred steps from me. Since he was the one holding the flashlight, I left no choice but the go behind him.
When I almost got near to Kevin, I immediately hid when his body suddenly stumbles to the ground.
All their flashlights and guns were completely focus on Kevin and the dogs continued from barking.
“Hold it right there!” Mr. Stewart ordered his officers to tightly hold the K-9 dogs.
He caressed the dogs to calm themselves.
“Hang on, this delinquent belongs to me.” He added.
Kevin greeted his dad as politely as possible to avoid being scolded and lectured.
Mr. Stewart wagged his flashlight.
“Now, where is your partner in crime, huh?”
“Who? Do you mean Clark? He’s home. He told me he wanted to get a good night's sleep due to his severe wound in his stomach.” Kevin explained dishonestly.
Mr. Stewart seemingly agreed to Kevin’s lies. It would not truly be advisable for me to come with him wounded.
“Well, young man, I’m gonna walk you back to your car and you and I are gonna have a serious conversation about something we called, following my words.”
Moreover, I didn’t hear any presence from them after they all left. It was only me left alone in these woods.
I immediately took and switched on the flashlight of my phone heading to the ground.
I was completely freaking terrified after seeing the other half of the body, eyes opened and full of blood.
To my surprised, I immediately ran as fast as I could. When my stomach was in pain and bleeding, I slowly stopped for a bit and had calmed myself.
As creepy as the night was, I suddenly hear a continuous weird growling behind me.
My heart immediately beats faster and faster. Because of much pain and exhaustion, I couldn’t move my body anymore.
I sighed helplessly and decided to close up my eyes as my whole body was already full of sweat and was scared up to death.
I slowly opened my other eye to check the area and immediately my body was completely frozen when I saw not only one but two wolves standing in front of me.
Compared to the last wolf I met last night, their eyes were cold blue and they only stared at me the whole time.
The other wolf barked at me enough that I got my normal mindset and immediately ran towards the main road.
Luckily, the two wolves didn’t go after me. Instead, I could feel that they helped me to be out of the woods.
When I reached the main road, I felt utterly relaxed as a few cars were passing by.
I immediately hailed a cab heading back to our house.
The next day, I went up early for school because I can’t wait to tell Kevin about my discovery last night.
I immediately received a teasing laugh from Kevin when he saw me waiting outside the gate.
“Hey, how was the hunting trip last night?” Kevin dejectedly asked.
“What the hell man! You left me all alone in that creepy place.” I pretentiously replied in an antagonistic manner.
“Okay, I’m sorry. Are you happy now?” He replied guiltily.
I then shifted my mood and facial expression back to normal when we were heading to the room.
"Alright, you don’t have any idea what happened to me last night, bro. That was freaking awesome and terrifying at the same time. I saw two wolves. Same sizes with the one that attacked me but I think they were not an aggressive one.”
He sighed dejectedly. “How many times do I have to tell you there’s no wolf in Green Hills, you idiot!”
“Well, if you’re not gonna believe me with that wolf thing, you might wanna believe me when I tell you, I found the other half of the dead body.” I enthusiastically said.
Kevin immediately jumped through excitement. His face lightened up.
“Are you kidding me?”
“No, man…how I wish. I think I’m gonna have nightmares for like a month.”
We then went to the room.
“As you all know, there indeed was a dead body found in the woods the other day. And I am pretty sure your selfish immature little minds are coming up with several macabre scenarios as to what happened.
Kevin and I excitedly exchanged glances while our professor keeps on writing on the board.
But, I am here to tell you that the police already have suspects in custody, which means you can give your thorough attention to the copies that I put into your desks.” Professor William, our History teacher cordially said.
Amidst of him continue speaking, I unexpectedly heard loud excruciating dings from a phone.
I eagerly observed my classmates who would probably pick up their phone and rose in confusion when no one does.
“Mom, five calls on my first day is quite annoying and depressing.”
A girl sitting in the park was the one speaking. My eyes widened in shock and confusion why and how on earth could I hear everything from a distance.
“Everything except for a pen. Oh my God, I really forget to bring a pen with me.” She worriedly said when she didn’t find anything from her bag.
Amidst her conversation with her mom, our School Principal approached her and asked.
“Sorry to keep you waiting.” He then politely bowed his head.
After the call ended, the two went inside the building. As they kept talking, my eyes and ears were also following.
In a few seconds, our classroom door suddenly unlocked and opened. I can clearly hear her heartbeat that sounded like a growling thunder.
Our School Principal politely introduced the new girl. Afterward, he went outside.
Her name is Angelina Jones and Ina is her nickname. She was a shy-type of the girl as her head was bowed all the time during our School Principal introducing her.Luckily, she sat at the vacant seat behind me. I slowly face her and offer my pen.“Thanks.” And she smiled.I grinned in secret when I turned my face back.After an hour of discussion, I went to my locker to prepare for my lacrosse practice.I am part of the school’s lacrosse team who’s enjoying sitting on the bench along with my best friend, Kevin, for the entire season for four consecutive years.“That leather jacket is absolutely a killer. Where did you get that?” Miya, Roger’s girlfriend approached.“My mom bought this from a boutique store back in Greendale.” Ina politely replied.“I like you already, and… you are probably my new best friend.” Miya laughed afterward.Amidst their con
“It’s alright, it’s alright. Umm, do you still remember where it happened so I could send some Animal Control to look for it?’I felt sympathy after seeing her trembling in worry.“No! I mean, yes. I know where I hit the dog but…”She stammered and shaking.“Where it is?”“It’s in my car. The dog, unfortunately, couldn’t walk after I hardly hit it.We immediately went to her car to bring the dog to the clinic. Unexpectedly, we are greeted by the dog’s loud barks.Ina was in a daze.“Are you okay? It’s okay, the dog was just frightened.” I worriedly asked.“That makes the two of us.” She replied.“Let me see if I have a stroke of better luck. Honestly, I am only an attendee in my boss’ animal clinic.”I slowly looked at the dog and gave her a very vicious glowing reddish eye.
“Oh, you mean steroids? Wait; are you on steroids right now?”He punched the locker again.“Do you think you’re funny, Clark? Better tell me what’s going on with you?”I can see that his eyes were even more furious right now as if he is ready and willing to punch me.“What’s going on with me? Do you really wanna know?”Roger nodded.“Well, so would I! Last night, I had my most terrifying dream. I am in some kind of another world where slaughtering one’s throat truly existed. Then, there’s this Beast Lord who wanted to come after me.These past few days, I can see, hear and smell things that I shouldn’t be able to see, hear or smell. I do things be impossible for a normal person could do.I also experienced sleepwalking, like a mile in the middle of nowhere and I am totally freaking out of my mind.”I completely furrowed and sighed dejecte
I soothed and calmed myself afterward.“I’m sorry.”I dropped my glare towards the floor after apologizing to him and felt completely guilty. After all, he has been my best friend and he only did it for my own sake.I sincerely apologized to him and immediately went out of his room heavyheartedly.After I am already out of sight, Kevin was completely dumbfounded when he picked up the convertible chair. There were some slashed with claw marks that tore out the thread.Furthermore, I went home to have a shower first before picking up Ina.I couldn’t help myself but stare at the mirror from too much excitement with my first date.When I got out of the bathroom, I was completely embarrassed when my mom was patiently waiting for me to come out.“Happy birthday, son! Your dad will be home in an hour.”She then grinned at me for no reason.“Is this a party or a date?” she a
“Ina, it’s for you!” Mrs. Jones shouted loudly.When Ina heard the irritating loud voice from her mom, she immediately descended from the stairs to look who was looking for her.Kevin felt relieved after he confirmed Ina is now out of danger.Meanwhile, I kept running from the woods like a dog following Ina’s scent. I suddenly saw her blazer hanging in the branch of a tree.I noticed that something was off. It is quite impossible that it would be hanged that high.“Where is she? I know you two are here and I know you can totally hear me.”I affirmatively asked after I heard some cracking and rustling behind me.Mr. and Mrs. Smith showed up.“She’s totally safe, from you,” Rico replied.“What did you do to her?”I extremely growled at them.In an instant, Rico swiftly grabbed my body and pinned it to the ground. He was extremely fast. I haven&
She grinned and chuckled in disbelief and slowly picked it up and stared.“Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. Boys? Boys, wake up! You still have your classes. Don’t wait that I should drag you out of the bed.” She said.Mom intentionally dragged the blanket after a minute that we never made a sound for what she was saying.Kevin fell to the floor after pulling the blanket.“Umm, where is that freaking wolf, Clark?”Kevin immediately said and stood up.“Hey, you’re daydreaming with a wolf, young man. Why of all things, wolf, really?”Mom furrowed and continued cleaning the room.Kevin was back with his consciousness and frowned in confusion. He can’t remember him mumbling about the wolf.My sleepiness disappears after hearing Kevin talking about wolves. We exchanged glances.I frowned and sighed dejectedly.“Mom, today’s Sunday! Most likely it's a rest day for us, Okay? We don’t have classes.”“Oh, today’s Sunday indeed. I’m sorry
“Are you fucking kidding me? What if something happens to him that night?”Sheriff Stewart hardly pinched our ears and dragged us back to the car.“Ouch, ouch, dad! Can we at least hear a simple sincere thank you from the Sheriff for solving and finding the body?”Sheriff Stewart released his grip from our ears.“Okay, the two of you, thank you. Please go home, do your homework, and have a good sleep, okay?”Afterward, Kevin and I started the car and drove away.“Bro this thing happened was completely incredible! We were like secret agents solving mysterious crimes.” He enthusiastically said.
“We need to win this.” Miya worriedly said to Ina.She eagerly stood up, grinned fully with positivity and enthusiasm to her with the banner.“Ina, a little help her?” She added.There was a loud whooping and cheering after we came back with our designated positions in the field. All the people watching the felt extreme excitement, while we the players were all getting serious also.All of our eyes and mind were completely vigilant as the game was getting even more intense and interesting.“Down…! Set…!”(Whistle blows)This time, the ball was thrown upward. Everyone was patiently waiting for the ball to fall, while I, on the other hand, immediately jumped as higher as possible which was truly impossible for an ordinary man could do.Everyone who was eagerly watching the game immediately dropped their jaws to the ground where the entire oval was put into deep silence after witne
