It’s been 5 years since I had the idea to run away. Everybody agreed with me but it was only the location we had to settle on. Where exactly would we go? What exactly would we do? How long would we hide for? Of course then I had no answers, I didn’t even think the plan thru. But now I understand clearly why we had to run, they wouldn’t stop until they had Elizabeth. Of course the note clearly stated we had until she was 10, but we learned quickly that they wanted her sooner than that. The pack didn’t agree with my idea right away, but after that first night they couldn’t turn back my idea. While we slept sprites broke into the house and had it not been for Michael smelling them, or Elizabeth’s screeching cry they would have took her. That morning I awoke to have my bags packed, the car ready and the house all but empty except for the bed and Elizabeth’s crib. We didn’t know where to go at first, Michael suggested we go to his parents house but that wnt a good idea. If I knew the council of flickenhammer I knew they would already have people watching all of their families homes. They suggested a place of nature, that I could agree too. All of the sprites at the council are water sprites, being that water is the most powerful element. While we drove we looked around, searching for a place that was far enough and could support us. “us” being me, Michael, Elizabeth and the pack. After driving for about three days we entered a very small town in Oregon. Only populized with 247 people, nobody would think to look for us here. Although all we really wanted was to go to one of the many hotels and sleep, we had to keep going. About 5 miles from the town square we found a coup;e of wolf dens in the forest. I had objections about this because wolves are very territorial and tend to be quite vicous when they attack. But Michael just waved me off.
“they’ll smell us and turn hide to find somewhere else” was his exact words. Sure enough we didn’t have any problems but then we had to buy things, there were a total of six dens, that was enough for two people to share one, and each one had the space that would fit five people at the most. Michael sent the redhead, whose name is jack, and the brunette, whose name is mary, to get stuff. The pack wrote a list of essentials and I wrote a list of basic baby things. When they came back they had 12 blow up beds, a whole bunch of covers and pillows, bottles of water, food, soap, and the baby stuff. And with that we started our new life. Elizabeth learned how to speak at 2, how to walk at 3 and how to grab things at 4. Her blonde hair has very faint blue stripes through them and is extremely curly. Just like her fathers. She’s learned how to control her emotions but occasionally she’ll throw a tantrum and all hell will break loose in Helen. I would like to believe that the council is no longer watching us, sometimes I even pretend they aren’t but life isn’t about pretending. Its about facing your fears, if only I didn’t have to face them in 3 years.


Mommy always looks so sad, I wish I knew why. I hope she isn’t sad about me, everytime she’s around me it’s like she rather be somewhere else. Everybody else likes me, everybody else gives me hugs, everybody else loves me. I want mommy to love me so much, and I try so , so hard. I give her all the hugs and kisses and love I can but she doesn’t seem to want it. Daddy tells me that she loves me but it’s in a different way then he loves me. Daddy says that I’m special, when I ask him why he says its because of everything I can do. I tell him I don’t know what he means and he taps my nose. He does this all the time, he always smells good. He smells like…. Strawberries, fresh strawberries, I’ve only had them one time. It was really really hot and mary brought some home, I got to eat a nice juicy one and it got all over my face. Daddy laughed at me but mommy frowned and started to cry. I don’t eat strawberries anymore. The water feels nice on my legs, I spread my toes out and a fish swims by. John found the pond, it’s not far from the houses but mommy says I’m not supposed to go here. It doesn’t feel right being around all of those people, and the water helps me think clearer. I raise my head up and breath the air, it has the smell of the water and the earth, but there’s something else there. It smells like… me. I look around and see a man, he’s very pretty. He has black and blue striped hair and blue eyes, and like me he’s wearing grass clothes. Mommy said I could wear normal clothes like normal girls but I like the grass better. It feels right. He also has his feet in the water but he’s looking at me, he’s smiling. He has a pretty smile,
“you look like your mother” his voice sounds musical,
“daddy says that too” my voice is the opposite from his. It’s so small and squeaky, and surely not musical. The pretty man frowns and mommies arms wrap around my stomach, daddies dog comes out from the trees and growls at the pretty man.
“Elizabeth what were you doing here? I told you not to come out her” mommy yells at me
“but I wanted to feel water, and nobody noticed I was gone-“
“that doesn’t matter, you don’t go anywhere without me or your father, or by yourself at all!” she screaming so loud at me. Only thing I wanted was to feel the water, tears sting my eyes and I nod as she puts me back down.
“now go back to the houses and go to cora’s house” she isn’t yelling but her voice is still mean. The tears are streaming down my face as I run toward the houses and go to cora’s house.


God, if I hadn’t smelled him, and alexis hadn’t sensed him who knows what would have happened! I wanted to tell alexis not to be so tough on her but I think she’s slowly going away. The laughing, loving, smiling alexis I once knew is now replaced by a grimacing, cold, broken hearted one. I understand what with the council and everything there is a reason to be so uptight but she makes herself distant from Elizabeth. We both hear Elizabeth cry herself to sleep at night, but yet it’s only me that goes to console her. You need to focus, my wolf snaps at me, I don’t trust any of theses sprites except for our own. He’s right I have to pay attention to the sprite, not my emotions. He raises his arms in surrender,
“I meant no harm,” he’s looking at alexis and I let my eyes travel to her too. Her eyes are pitch black, her nostrils are flared and her fists are clenched. She’s not angry, or threatened, she’s just flat out pissed.
“you follow my scent here,” her teeth are ground together “you talk to my daughter and you think obscene things about her”. She takes one step toward him and before she does anything I step in front of her, she looks to me and kicks me to a tree. What the hell did she do that for? My wolf asks,I whine in pain it feels like she’s burned me with an iron. I look back to her, she hasn’t even looked my way she stands in front of the sprite and even though he’s got at least 6 inches on her he looks scared. I feel a withdrawl and realize I can’t save him, she’s pissed and she’s going to hurt him. I might as well enjoy the show, she punches him in the gut then knees him in the face. While he’s down holding his face she grabs his hair and whispers,
“you tell anyone where we are, you think to anyone where we are if you happen to fly by here,” she growls out “I swear to everyone I love I will not hesitate to kill you” she bites his ear. In a way it looks sensual but the look on his face reveals it’s painful, a grunting sound comes from him and she lets him go. She takes a couple of deep breaths and looks to me with brown eyes. Fear comes on her face and she steps over the sprite to me, she touches my side where she kicked me and I cant help the whine that comes out.
“oh god I’m so sorry” she hugs me and I rest my head on her shoulder for a minute. I watch as the sprite spreads his wings and flies away, he doesn’t look back at alexis or me he just flies away. I step away and point my head towards the dens, she nods then stands up and walks next to me. I guess somewhere along the walk there she realized what she said to Elizabeth and runs towards cora’s den. She doesn’t knock she just pushes aside the comforter we all use for a door and goes to stand in front of Elizabeth. I feel so bad for her, she just wants her mother to love her. At least that’s what she tells me, Elizabeth looks up from her coloring book to her mom then to me. Her face lights up, then she frowns and puts her head down
“sorry daddy, I just wanted to feel the water” she looks up to see my reaction so I just give one nod to the head and she smiles again. Her smiles are magnificent her eyes turn to pink and she has cute little dimples that only just mar her freckles. She doesn’t say anything to alex she just starts to color again, alex kneels beside her and I see that she has tears streaming down her face,
“don’t you ever think that, I love you and I always will” Elizabeth looks up to her mother and her eyes start to turn to a dull pink,
“really?” her tiny voice squeaks and cracks. Alex nods and opens her arms for a hug, Elizabeth wraps her arms around her mother as if shes the only thing that matters right now. And at that alex breaks apart, she wraps her arms around Elizabeth and sits on the den floor, she rocks back and forth softly saying things ‘ I’m so, so sorry’ she says. Then after a while that gets replaced by soft ‘elizabeth’s . when I’m sure Elizabeth is sleeping I slowly slink to our den and change back.


How blind could I have been!? She’s been hurting, wanting me to love her not thinking I loved her! I love her, with all my heart, probably more, o cant show it though. I don’t know if they’ve been watching us or how long they’ve been watching us but I have to be as separated from her as I can without it hurting too much. I’ve been so jealous of everyone else, I’ve wanted to hug her, and kiss her and just love her. But if anyone saw her with me they would
