Run Freely Novels & Stories

I was finally free. END

Soon I'll be free. Free to run in the forests again. Free to shift completely again. Free to track. Free to hunt. And free to rip apart the humans that took everything from me.

My massive paws thudding against the earth, sending brittle leaves swirling. Racing through the forest, darting between towering trees, my heart pounded in sync with the rhythm of my paws. No destination, no plan, just the thrill of the chase. Out here I was untamed. Out here I was free. Away from all the chaos, no stress or expectations, just the raw energy coursing through me. The deeper I drove myself into the barren forest, the more at peace I felt. Slowing my pace, the rapid wind that flowed through my fur eased its grip. It felt good to get away for a minute.

And my heart felt like it was running a whole mile. The cold breeze of air hit my face and blow my hair as I continued to run. My breathing felt weirdly abnormal. The feeling was just so indescribable. It was like I was nervous, scared, happy, and at the same time....free. I was free from everything, every time that I do this. Free from family problems, from school stress, from every single thing that's keeping me from being free. It's not that I'm a rebel. In fact I'm actually a really good student, daughter, and all in all, as a person. It's just I think everybody deserves a little bit of fun every once in a while.

I feel a flutter in response. Ready.

Rage floods every cell in my body. I move.
