Question to be Answered

Jack Ash

My head thundered with the call of the incidence just like the air cutting through me. I would never know what I was if Alisa weren't there.

Alisa.

Just the instant I saw her I was I needed her but now I knew she wasn't supposed to be anywhere near me. I wanted to forget how determined I was to rip her head off of her. As if there was an inner voice, so strong and clear putting me to it, I thought for a second that its what I have to do. I would never want that, not because it was Alisa but for any living thing. I wasn't inhuman and curel but what I felt that time was savage.

My mind raved and I was scared if I did harm anyone. I am a monster was what running through my mind and killing me. I questioned all the time I ran mindlessly. Why my mother didn't tell me these things? Did Alisa make me this? Why would she make something that could kill her, a vampire? I am a monster.

"Hey."

I stopped and turned around towards the source. It was a woman of my age with a highly noticeable mark across her face. Like a claw. I looked down at my hand. It was a normal human hands now but it wasn't like this at that time and that kind of hand was capable to put the mark. I looked closer to find the other two mark running down her throat. That was hiding her hazel eyes and beautiful face. But her bright and childish smile dulled the exposed and strong scar.

It's not me. I will never do as such.

"You are Jack Ash." She asked me.

I hesitated yet nodded to her.

"What is that mark on your face." I asked her.

"I love animals but I guess they hate me." She smiled.

I took a relieved breath and smiled at her. After two days it was a normal conversation with anyone. I felt little better.

She kept on staring me and I didn't know what to say so I asked her the purpose of stopping me.

" Do we know each other?"

"I know you but I know you don't know me." She chuckled and came near me. I stepped away not because I was afraid of her but of hurting her. I didn't know the other self of mine. It wasn't like me. It made me dark and fierce.

"Want to grab some food with me?"

"No, I have to go somewhere." I rushed and retreated back.

"That's rude."

I turned away and walked fast.

"I am Hazel. I am like you. I can help."

Don't trust anybody.

I remembered Alisa's words. But wasn't she just interested in the mystery of me. Several possibilities swimmed my mind. My mother. Werewolf. And I reached to the conclusion.

"Are you too.. You know... Wolf?" I asked.

She smiled and nodded. "Yeah. I am good to others but they dint like me." she said pointing her scar.

"My house isn't too far. Come."

I followed her.

"I heard that the people like you were all dead. But you said there are others. Are there too many of you?" I asked remembering Alisa again.

"People like 'us' and many of 'us.' You are that too Jack." She smiled while I grimaced.

"Anyways we are not too many. We lost lot of us in that war. We were in hiding until we found out that you are alive."

"Why were you hiding? And why do you care about me?" I asked her.

She reached out to her red and shining BMW. Rubbed her finger to the top of it then slowly opened the door. She seemed too happy about the car and probably got it not too soon to end her likeness of that kind.

" You will find out once you are filled with food and then stuff. I am not allowed to speak upon that." She said and slid inside the car.

I opened the door for me got inside the car. Ignoring my eager of appreciating the beauty of the car, I concentrated on the words of Hazel.

" Who barred you from speaking about that? "

" Very curious. Just calm down and you will find out everything you need to know through our interim alpha. " She laughed.

" Interim alpha? What is that?"

She chuckled. "I can explain you that. Alpha is the strongest and sharpest of us all. Sometimes one is by blood, other times by Valor but he is the best of us all. We all listen and act upon his acord. He knows better. "

She told me with all the appreciation and interest in her voice.

" Who is the real aplha?"

She stared me for long as if to look through me that it scared me that she might crash the car.

" Well we lost him years ago. I hope he turns out to be best when we get him." She shook her head.

"What happened to him?"

"Now you are going where I am not allowed to answer."

She scoffed at her.

"You know my mother is missing. If you know me you might know her." I told her.

"Yes I know. Not too closely though. I heard she was a great warrior, too bad she can't shift now. Don't worry she will find her way home. She always has and will that's why you were guarded by her."

"Guarded by her? What do you mean?" I leaned near her face to know about my mother. My mind and it's thought concentrated upon the fact that my mother was missing.

"I cannot tell you." And now my patience ran away. I had a mixed feeling now. I was angry, scared and mad. It was just like that. I was changing. My thought process crumbled and diverted to different path. I did not want to become that and think like that but I couldn't help it. It was very convenient and easy to accept it rather than going against. And now I wanted to hurt her.

"Big guy, calm down." She called loudly to me and stopped to lunge upon her.

"Settle down!"

Thus is wrong. I am not this.

I brought my self back panting and cursing myself.

"I lose myself. I am not this. I.." I blurted out to her.

"I guess I understand. Martin was talking about this. Don't worry you both will go along once you find your wolf." She said and it irritated me more. It did not make sense.

"What the f**k is that supposed to mean?" I almost jumped upon her again but stopped soon. I was getting dangerous.

She just stared me, horror clear in her face. And that scared me more. Was I so savage? Didnt other wolf lose control like this?

"Tell me." I roared at her.

" Umm.. Jack.. Our wolf talk to us. We communicate but you see you haven't known anything about it all so maybe it is pissed that you did not treat it well. I am not sure. My wolf gets upset if I don't follow her or shut her off. I hope I don't anger you by saying I don't know too much but Martin, our interim alpha does. So if.. If you could.. Please wait. "

She made sense and I felt my anger to settle. It was confirmed as she relaxed too and smiled before starting the engine again. I decided to patiently wait for the superior to tell me things or maybe help me find my mother.
