Chapter 1: The War Begins

Tadashi ran to Haruki’s house after school to check up on her. Tadashi was 11 years old and has known Haruki since they were 4. Haruki was also 11 years old and she was home sick today from school. Tadashi ran all the way to her house and knocked on the door. Haruki’s mother answered the door and looked down at Tadashi. “Oh hello Tadashi are you here to see Haruki?” The mother asked kneeling down and smiling at him. “Yeah I wanted to make sure she was ok since she never showed up for school today.” Tasashi said and held up some flowers he had picked for Haruki. “Aw thats sweet of you, well come on in and make yourself comfertable.” Haruki’s mother stood up and walked inside with Tadashi close behind her. Tadashi set his backpack on the floor and ran up to Haruki’s room. The door was closed so Tadashi knocked on it. “Come in….” Haruki said weakly and coughed a bit. “Tadashi opened up the door and walked into her room and gasped when he saw her. “Haruki…..your pure white…..” Tadashi said walking over to her bed side and setting the flower on her lamp desk next to the bed. “Yeah I havent been feeling good at all and the doctors dodont know exactly what kind of flew I have….” Haruki said and coughed more. Tadashi looked at her sadly. “Well I really hope you get better cause I dont know what I will do if you die…..” Tadashi said as he walked out of her room. “You need rest I will come see you again tomarrow I promise.” Tadashi said as he left the room and closed the door silently and gently so he didnt give Haruki a head ache. Tadashi walked downstairs carefully and went into the living room sitting on the couch. “Whats wrong Tadashi?” Haruki’s mother asked taking a seat next to him and handing him a glass of soda. “Well Im worried about Haruki I meen……she is really sick but she says the doctor doesnt  know what it is…..” Tadashi said looking down at the floor. “Well she is strong she will come out of it, she always has.” Said the mother standing up and walking into the kitchen. Tadashi drank his pop and picked up his backpack leaving the house and going home. Tadashi walked inside his house and looked around seeing and hearing no one. “Mom…..dad?” Tadashi asked looking around more not finding them. “Where are they?” Tadashi asked walking into their room and looking around. “Not here ethier…..” Tadashi said as he walked into the living room and sat on the couch thinking to himself abit hopelessly. “Why would my parents just both leave……they knew i was coming home and they have never left anywhere without telling me….”Tadashi asked himself again and again and again until an idea popped into his head. “I know I can call there cell phone number!” Tadashi jumped off of the couch and ran into the kitchen grabbing the phone and dialing his parents number. The phone rang again and again but no one would pick up. Tadashi got worried and ran out of his house. “Mom?!?!” “Dad!?!?!” “Where are you?!” Tadashi called for them but couldnt find them and then realized his whole block was empty. Tadashi walked around and looked at all the houses. Everyone was gone and there wasnt anything left in the neighborhood. Tadashi ran all the way down the road to Haruki’s house and Haruki;s mom was even missing now. Tadashi smashed through the door and ran up the stairs checking on Haruki. Tadashi smashed into the room and saw a dark figure standing above Haruki. Tadashi froze in fear watching what the creature was doing. It was draining her of her blood and stopped looking up at Tadashi. Tadashi backed up to the door and didnt know what to do. The creature jumped over the bed and landed on the other side picking up Haruki. “Hey what are you doing?” Tadashi asked running forward to the creature. The creature smiled and jumped out of the window crashing out of it and opening up 2 huge wings flying away. Tadashi got to the window and watched the creature take Haruki away. “No!!!!!!” Tadashi screamed at the creature. “Damnit…….what the hell was that…..why did it take Haruki?” Tadashi asked walking out of the room and lookin g up seeing 2 men. “Thats the only kid left….get him….” One man said and the other walked towards Tadashi. “What?….” Tadashi asked and then turned around running. The men growled abit and ran after him. Tadashi ran into Haruki’s room again and jumped out the window landing in the tree just below it. The 2 men ran over to the window and looked around seeing him in the tree and they both jumped into it after him. Tadashi yelled and fell down the tree landing on his neck. The 2 men fell down beside Tadashi and landed on their feet. “This is the last one we need to turn before the others do….” One man said. “Right…” The other man said and picked up Tadashi who was knocked out cold. “It has started……..the war that might never end…..” The man said and disappeared into thin air. The other man did the same with Tadashi. Hours went by and Tadashi woke up looking around. He was bound to a cold iron bed with huge straps. 1 man walked into the room he was in and smiled at him. “Ah I see your awake, now we can begin.” The man said reaching over and opening a drawer pulling out a needle. “What?” “Start with what?”Tadashi asked him in fear abit from the site of the needle. “Well it will take some time to explain but you can no longer be a mortal or you will die.” The man said as he inserted the needle into his arm. “What do you meen?” “Where is Haruki?” Tadashi asked in anger. “She is gone……from now next time you see her you must kill her.” The man said taking the needle out of his arm and pulling one of Tadashi’s arms over to him. “What?” “Wait no stop dont!” Tadashi screamed as the needle went into his arm and the blood was injected into him. “Dont worry the change will only hurt for a few minutes and it feels funny at first but it will be fine….” The man said as he pushed more blood into Tadashi’s arm. “No!” Tadashi said and struggled to get away. “Your strapped in so you cant move anywhere….” The man said and finished pulling out the needle. “What did you put into me?”Tadashi asked the man angrily. “My blood…wolfs bain.” Said the man smiling as Tadashi felt abit cold. “Whats happening to me?” Tadashi asked as his arms became abit bigger and stronger and his muscles felt like they were being torn and rebuilt. “The change from human to wolf.” The man said standing back abit. Tadashii felt alot of pain and screamed. Tadashi’s face formed abit differently and his teeth grew long. Tadashi’s nails grew long and his legs grew longer along with his arms. Tadashi’s human ears formed ontop of his head into wolf ears and he grew a tail. The man smiled and then gasped as something was wrong with Tadashi’s transformation. Tadashi had stopped changing and was stuck in his current form. “Thats not supposed to happen…..hes a half breed….” The man said as he watched what Tadashi did. Tadashi struggled with the pain and broke the straps that held him. He got up and walked over to the man. “You!” Tadashi yelled lifting up his claws and charging at the man. The man dodged Tadashi’s attack and grabbed his arm twisting it behind his back. “Well your different from everyone else…..but you atleast have the instincts to kill….” The man said letting Tadashi go. “My name is Erik and now we can begin your training first thing in the morning.” Erik said opening up the door to the room and leaving it locking it behind him. Tadashi banged against the door wanting out. “Dont worry you wont stay in there every day its just tonight until you get used to that form of yours.” Erik said through the door and walked away. Tadashi howled in anger and didnt know what to do all he could think of was Haruki and what ever was happening to her. “Haruki!!!” “I will see you again!!!” Tadashi yelled and suddenly got dizzy and fell to the floor passing out.
