WEREWOLF
(Written by [email protected] )


The blue moon hovered in the sky. The wind was howling and it was rustling the leaves, icy-cold air filled the surroundings. A pair of red bloodshot eyes gleamed from the bushes.

“Ring…” , school bell rang. “Whew! What a tiring day!” I heaved a sigh of relief. I had just finished classes and was on my way home. “Hey James!” Wait up.” I turned around and saw my best buddy Samuel. “ What are you going to do today James?” , asked Samuel. “ I don’t really know. Do you have any ideas?” “Why don’t we go into Forbidden Forest at the east-side of town. I hear there are a lot of weird creatures in there.” “What! Are you mad? We could get killed going in there.” “ You don’t have to lie to me James. I know you’re chicken hearted. Look! You even dropped one of your feathers.” Looking on my shoulder, I quickly brushed off the bird feather and said “All right, I will prove it to you that I am not a coward.”

On the way, Samuel started to scare me with another of his spooky stories. “ legend has said that every time there is a full moon, a strange animal will appear. If a person is in the forest at that time the ‘animal’ will get extremely hungry.” I was scared out of me wits that I had second thoughts about entering the forest.

Arriving at the entrance of the forest , a battered old sign stood there, it read “Beware! Beware!” Suddenly, a hunchback old woman appeared, she cackled “Hee! Hee! Hee! Finally, two brave people daring enough to enter the forest. My ‘pet’ will love it.” With a flash she disappeared as quickly as she came.

Entering the forest, loud howlings could be heard. I turned to look for Samuel but he was not there. I was starting to get frightened. I was walking towards the strange sound when a pair of deep red eyes gleamed at me. Feeling an aura of danger I started to run. That beast was swift footed, it ran so silently that I could not even figure if it was there. Looking behind me back, it was not there. Turning my head around, there it was, a wolf but not just a wolf, it was standing almost as upright as a man and its eyes was changing colour. I realized it was a werewolf. I was to stunned to move. I thought in my mind “where is Samuel when I need him.” I could feel its breathe getting stronger and stronger as it got closer to me. A pain was suddenly cruising through my body. I could stand it no longer. I blacked out.

“James! James! Wake up!” I opened my eyes, the view was uncertain but it soon became clear. There was Samuel standing next to me. “What happened?!” I asked. “We were about to enter the forest and you suddenly fainted. You must be really scared. Come on, get up let me take you home.” As Samuel supported me back home, a loud howling sound came from the forest. From that day on I wondered if there really is a werewolf in the forest or was it all a dream. This I may never find out.
