We Trust No One...

((Are we rping the wolves in first person too? I didn't know so I went ahead and did it.))

-Around 12:30 at night-

I settled myself neatly upon a falt boulder about 20 miles away from the Haunted Whispers' border. With my leg crossed in front of me I began to relax. The tension in my muscles melted away and the sounds of the forest filled my ears. Harmony. But not real harmony. It was false, a simple mask. Through that calm and quiet there was a dark presence lurking. It was not necessarily a being or creature, but rather a heavy, black shadow that was watching and waiting for something terrible to come. Worry and fear soon began to cloud my mind but before it could take complete hold I let my other thoughts fill my mind and push them out. Where was Amri? What was he doing? Why did he run off? Of course, I had no answer to any of these questions and I wasn't going to find anything out unless I found Amri. I moved from my spot on the rock and lept to the ground, ready to take off into the trees until another thought rolled into my mind. Where was Aubry? Oh well, I quickly dismissed it. If she was coming she could follow my scent. If she got too scared to follow, she could go back to the camp. I really didn't care especially because all she would most likely do is make things worse and she'd only slow me down. With a hop, skip, and a jump, I was on my way, and with any luck, I'd find Amri before sunrise...

((Is this Zara? Or Aztec? I'd like to know before I post.))

((Whoops. I prolly shoulda made that clear xP Coulda sworn I did when I posted but I guess not. It's Aztec. And If you wanna change the title of the thread that's cool. I just threw it out there because I didn't want to spend time thinkning about it.))

((Glad I checked because I was going to go with Zara. I wasn't sure though because it seemed too...nice to be her.))

The moonlight danced across my mixture of fur and skin, lighting me up like a night of a full moon. I sighed wistfully as I glanced down at my beautiful body intensified by the night.If only the world could see me now, at my best and prettiest. (It was too bad that most of the world would be asleep at this hour, though.) If only I wasn't stuck in this cursed half-beast form. If only I could freely phase between my familiar human body and my comfortable wolf form.

But life is full of these If only's, though it really was too bad that this body sucked and that it wasn't going to be getting any better anytime soon. A slight feeling rose up inside of me; something that I almost didn't recognize--jealousy. I couldn't remember the last time I had ever felt this longing and jealous. After all, didn't I have everything I could want? A gorgeous body, the ability to switch between forms, (for a little while, anyways) and I even had Amri to flirt with. Speaking of him, though, it made me wonder--where had that dork run off too? He must know that once Zara finds him she's going to literally kill him.

Another thought crossed my mind. Is that why he's still gone? I thought. If I had the nerve to run away, i sure wouldn't want to deal with the consequences. I should probably go out and look for the poor guy...I thought before I rose from my crouch and walked off into the trees.

The jealousy still nagged at me, almost tearing at my brain. Soon enough, we'd get the cure, and I could finally be someone to be jealous of, not consumed by it. I looked forward to the day I could finally be seen in public again.
