Awaken the Wolf
Then, clouds began to gather, obscuring the beautiful clear sky and the stars from my view.
The most unearthly shriek filled the air, and a hideous creature dragged itself through the void created by the dark magic being cast.
“No, I know that cry”, I breathed.
“State your name, oh great one,” the older woman called. The whole time I never took my eyes off the creature crawling through the dark portal. In its clawed hand, it clutched a wolf, my wolf, my Titan; tears filled my eyes, and I wanted to howl. But I couldn’t give myself away. I wouldn’t stand a chance against that thing, not right now, anyway.
