ABBY{Tuesday, 3 days to the blood moon}“What’s going on, Abby?” Trevor asked as he stared at me in alarm. “I can give you a ride home. My dad's car is outside.”I tried to say something, but the ringing in my ears got louder, and my vision blurred until I couldn’t see anything. I pushed past him and staggered down the stairs, trying to steady my steps and my breath.His voice was inaudible as he ran after me. The only sounds I could hear were the heartbeats of everyone I walked past, and howling from afar. I smelt blood and craved it. “Hey, Abby,” David said as he walked up to me and grabbed my arm. I tried to pull my arm away, but his grip was firm. “You can’t leave yet,” he said. “Have a beer before you go.”The ringing in my ears became unbearable, and the dizziness got worse as I tried to steady my legs, which were trembling. “Please, let go of my arm. I need to go,” I struggled to say.But he won't listen. “Just have a beer,” he said.Trevor managed to push past everyone in th

ABBY{Wednesday, 2 days to the blood moon}The principal escorted me outside to meet the sheriff. He was waiting in his car for me. She looked at me and squeezed my hand to know if it was okay to leave. I nodded.“Abby Chesterfield, get in,” the Sheriff said and opened the door for me. “Let's go on a brief ride.”I looked out the window as he drove for a few minutes, saying nothing.“You've been driving for 5 minutes. What did you want to tell me?” I asked.“How are you, Abby?” he asked. I sighed. “Let's skip to the part where you tell me why you wanted to see me.”“How are you, Abby Chesterfield?” he grinned.I could tell from his grin that he got his family back.“Are you taking me to Ashley?” I asked, smiling from ear to ear.“Hold your horses. Your sister is safe,” he said with a grin. “But they're not in Lockwood. We need to take Mr. Gordon unawares.”It disappointed me that he wasn't taking me to her, but I was glad to hear that she was safe. “Where are they now?”“They aren't f

TREVOR{Tuesday, 3 days to the blood moon}“I love you too, Trevor Coleman,” Abby said as she fell on me.She blacked out after saying it, and I could feel her warm breath on my neck as I held her. I lay there for a while, trying to steady my hands, which had been trembling since I saw her turn into a wolf.Two cars approached from our left and right as we lay on the road, and their headlights illuminated us. Alex got down from one car, and Blake got out of the other. I flipped Abby to the side, so I was covering her with my body. “Get up, Coleman,” Blake demanded as he tossed his jacket at me. “Cover her up with that,” he said.I stared at him for a while, seeing only his silhouette as he blocked the headlights with his body frame. Then I picked the Jacket and covered her up.“What the hell do you want?” I asked.“You made her waste another full moon, and the blood moon is in 3 days,” he said. “So, Mr. Gordon asked to see you.”“What do you mean I made her waste another full moon?”

TREVOR{Wednesday, 2 days to the blood moon}He whistled after chaining Blake, and three men emerged from different directions, all aiming at Abby and me.“Nice to meet you, Abby,” he said. “My name is Antony Gordon, and I have been studying you from a distance for 17 years.”“What do you want?” She asked.“I want many things from you,” he said as he aimed his gun at me. “But all I want right now is to see you turn into a wolf, or he dies.”Abby looked at me, and I could see the panic in her eyes as she spoke. “I can’t… I can’t control it.”“No, Abby, you can and must,” he said. “Or I’ll blow his brains out.”“Please, just let him go. I’ll go with you,” she said.I was about to say something when I felt a blow at the back of my head. A sharp, ringing sound echoed through my ears, and I struggled to make it back to my feet. I felt blood trailing down my back from a cut at the base of my head, and I saw Abby screaming as tears trailed down her face.“I want you to listen to me, Abby.” H

KELVIN{Sunday, 5 days to the blood moon}I was the one leaving, but I felt left behind. The last time I saw Blake, he thought he killed me, but it was an illusion. When he heard I was still alive, he waited for the day I'd come for vengeance. But I never came.I felt guilty leaving Abby with him because I saw one of Jericho’s briefcases in his cabin earlier, meaning he was working for them.Jericho's men were on the road when I got there. They were planning to go to the cabin and take Abby. Blake must’ve been the one who told them where they were. It was easy for me to attack, because they couldn't see me. The last one was Abby's friend, Trevor. I told him all I knew about Jericho when I showed him the cabin Abby was in. But as I turned to leave, I looked at the trees and the ground. Someone had marked them with shadow ash. I followed the trail of shadow ash back to the place I buried Molly, but when I dug it up, all I saw was her jacket. The Jacket she gave Abby to come to the cabi

ASHLEY{Monday, 4 days to the blood moon}Mr. Gordon was sitting on a chair across the room when I woke up. I did not know how long I was out, but everything seemed clear. I had an ache in my head, but it was mild compared to the stinging pain I had across my forehead earlier. He sat on the bed when he saw I was awake, and I looked at his wristwatch to check the time. It was 12.05 pm. But it was 7 am when he gave me a shot in the morning. “How are you feeling, Ashley?” he asked as he checked my temperature.An image of Peter screaming as the car tumbled flashed through my mind. “Where is Peter?” I asked.He glowered at me and looked away. “You were in an accident a few hours ago, and here I am, trying to take care of you. But you keep asking about this boy? Teenagers.”“Well, just take me to him then,” I demanded.“I'll take you to him,” he said. “But you have to answer a few questions first.”“Okay,” I said. “What do you want to know?”He walked to the chair he was sitting on when I

SHERIFF{Sunday, 5 days to the blood moon}“My name is Jasmine,” a teenager said as she entered the office. I stared at her and looked back at Jacob, he was standing with the girl from earlier.“My name is Molly,” she said with a grin. I massaged my scalp and tried to get over the ringing in my head. “What are you guys doing here?” I asked. “I'm not running a daycare.” Molly chuckled. “Well, Mr. Sheriff,” she said. “We didn't come here for you to babysit us. If at all anyone needed babysitting, it would be you.”“Me?” I asked. “How so?”She picked up the Father's Day mug on the floor and handed it to me. “You were unconscious when we walked in here, and from the symbol on the injection in the waste bin, I can tell that Mr. Gordon or one of his men visited you,” she said. “And from the Father’s day mug, I can tell you have a family. If Mr. Gordon knows you, your family can't be safe.”“You're right,” I admitted. “But I don't see how you can help me.”“Why?” she asked. “Because I'm a

ASHLEY{Monday, 4 days to the blood moon}“Our goal,” Anthony Gordon said. “Is to create a superhuman. With werewolf strength, werewolf speed, and werewolf healing abilities. But without the fur.”I touched Peter's palm, and it was too cold. “How did you know that his blood would be compatible with mine if you haven't tested him yet?” I asked. “Well, Ashley,” he said. “Your blood is like a virus. A single drop of it in the body of a human could kill all the cells. So, we injected Peter with your blood, not enough to alter his genes and give him wolf powers, but enough to kill him if he wasn't compatible.”“You weren't even sure he would survive! Yet you injected him?” I yelled.“Science is about taking risks,” he said.“Science?” I asked. “If what you are doing here is purely scientific, what connection do you have with the blood moon?”He checked Peter’s temperature and removed the drip on his hand. “Jonathan runs Project Jericho as you know it,” he said. “I and the Chesterfields fo
