Wolf! By Joshua Seibert

Wolf! By Joshua Seibert

It all started on Friday, October 13. I was eating the school pizza, which is GENERALLY safe, but you can never tell. I was chatting with my friends John, Terry, and Jessie. John had eaten six pieces of pizza, and I was still on my first. My piece, unbeknownst to me, had a single hair on it. This single piece of pizza was to cause the deaths of 20 people, and end Carterville High School as we know it.

My mother was on vacation, and I was staying home alone for a couple of weeks. My sister was staying with my grandma for the meantime.

That night, it started. My cellular structure started to change, mutate into something primal, unforgiving. Bloodthirsty.

I woke up feeling good, seeing as though John had prescribed a sleep treatment for me consisting of bagpipe music. When I got in the shower that morning, the water turned red. I found that I was covered in blood

This was rather a shock, as you would guess. I know I screamed. The floor was also covered in blood or bloody paw prints at least.

I had no idea what had happened, but I gave my room a check anyhow. My pillow was also bloodied, and upon inspection of my person

A blood mark was on my chest red spiked with black carved by something dark and nonhuman I touched it and it sent a spike of searing pain through my body

I went in the living room and turned on the News reports said there had been three twisted, bloody murders the previous night

Could I have somehow been involved? I decided to show the mark to Tex, our master mythologist

But that would involve waiting until Monday

So, I decided to text it to him. I took a picture of the mark on my chest

Only to find that it was gone, sunken into my body. I would have to show him in person

So I waited

Two more murders that weekend committed by something with claws and teeth

Two more bloody wakeups

On Monday, I was so relieved I could finally ask Tex

But, as I found out, he was one of the recently murdered

He was one of the only ones who would have known

I was scared I thought it was me

I couldn t tell anyone else except, maybe, my best friend Jessie

When I told him, though, he just laughed

That night I woke up In a state unlike any other

I was a werewolf

I looked at my hands forepaws, maybe I could tell it was me

I was somewhere near Jessie's house

I ran for home it was me. I was a killer

I fell into my bed.. No one could ever know

The next morning, I was back to normal

I went to school that day

I talked to Jessie again I pulled him to the janitors office and showed him the scar

He believed me that time

I didn t tell him that I d been on my way to kill him

He asked how I knew, though

I told him I had woken up and been in werewolf form

He asked Why don t you ask Michael?

I didn t know Michael wasn t the kind of guy to believe me

But I pulled him to the side and showed him anyway

He promised me he d look it up

That weekend, there were 5 murders

I woke up covered in blood twice my teeth were covered in it

On Monday, Michael told me what he d found

It was a curse mark it could be removed

So I asked him how

Simple, really, Josh. Just need a few things

So I went on a scavenger hunt

That weekend, five more murders

It was me as usual

When I returned to school that week, Michael tried to remove the mark however, something went wrong

I ended up as a wolf in all states

I didn t know what to do I was in control of my mind but

My body was feral

Jessie kept me up on schoolwork for a while anyway

Then one day

He shot me.

It wasn t anything big, really. Just a shotgun shot

Didn t even have any silver in it

I got back up it had traced a bloody cross in my chest

My body started to change back and forth

But it blew me into the wall

I finally stabilized as a werewolf much less threatening though

My nights of terror were over

It was done gone over

I shift to human about once a month. But if you want proof

The End?
