Wanted, Alexia Stargazer [animal farm read .txt] 📗

tears slipping down my face. I looked into the water.
“Why me?” I whimpered to myself as my tears fell into the water. The water started to cloud and a voice spoke from it.
“Dear one” It said sadly. I sniffed and sighed.
“Daughter you were chosen because of your spirit,” It paused and I felt a warmth touch me.
“you can do this because you were born to..” The voice faded and I woke up in the creek. I shivered but stayed in the water when I felt something nudge me. I whined.
“Leave me be.” I said depressed. I felt someones teeth and yelped. I looked up and saw Will pulling me up and out of the water. I could hardly feel my legs. I soon realized Will had in fact saved me, I was shaking and stiff. He growled.
“What were you thinking?” He growled before laying over me. I shivered and started licking my paws, then my legs. Soon I was warm enough to move. I looked to Will He had almost fallen asleep when he felt me move. He looked at me.
“Thank you” I whispered. He sighed and stood. I bit my tongue to keep from shivering from the sudden cold. He looked down to me and nodded.
“I'm sorry I snapped at you Shadow but I just wounder what makes you do these crazy things.” Will said shaking his head. I ducked my head and licked my shoulder. He nudged me.
“Whats wrong?” He asked. He was close enough that I touched my nose to his. He jumped back and sat down confused. I laughed, stood and went over to him. I laid down in front of him and looked up giving him the puppy dog eyes that begged for help adding a whine to make it believable. He bowed his head looking me in the eyes.
“I know you enough to know that you don't beg.” he said smiling. I stood turning my shoulder to him making a pout look with sad eyes.
“aw Will come on play with me?” I asked him giving a small whine. He stood and sighed.
“I thought we were supposed to be training?” He said dully. I ducked my head further whining. He sighed again and nipped me. I jumped up and ran off a ways before turning and bowing.
“Come on!” I said excitedly. He trotted toward me and just before he could touch me I jumped away and ran off. He followed a little slower. I was soon far ahead and hiding behind a tree. He called out for me not quiet playing the game. I waited till he stepped ahead of me before falling behind him. He stopped frustrated when he couldn't see prints in the slushy snow. I was about to tell him were I was when I heard a branch snap. His head turned towards it as did mine. I stepped up beside him and we watched as a gray wolf came out. I immediately knew who it was. I straitened.
“Storm how are you?” I asked. He growled looking at Will. I looked between them and saw Will was also bristling and growling. I stepped between them.
“Storm were are your manners?” I asked before snarling.
“Down BOYS” My authority was unmatched by none other then my brother. I watched as both dogs laid down whining. I growled and sighed.
“Storm and Will stand and be civil.” I said sitting between them as they stood and looked at each other. I nodded.
“Good now, Storm this is Will, Will this is Storm.” I said. Storm snarled and Will sat. I took Storm down and beat him down before backing up next to Will. Storm was shaking and slowly stood.
“What happened to you Sandra I thought we were.” He started but then Dawn came in beside me. I looked over at him then back to Storm confused.
“What do you mean Storm I am the same as before just probable wiser.” I said before cocking my head. Dawn snorted.
“He means why do you chase this newbie instead of him,” Dawn paused and chuckled.
“Storm liked you Shadow.” Dawn finished. I watched as Storm growled at Dawn about to attack him. I jumped between them to late. Storm had lunged for Dawn and instead got me. I growled as his teeth dug deep into my bad shoulder. Storm was soon attacked by Will and let go of me. I tried to stand to stop them as they fought. I watched as Will was torn piece by piece watching Storm. I howled my furry and pain before getting up. When I looked back up it was Storm bowing to Will and Will just kept attacking him. I looked at Dawn and he chuckled. When I saw Storm start to retreat I lunged after him. He yelped in surprise and ran from me. I chased him to the borders before stopping. He turned to look at me, his form haggard and bleeding.
“Shadow please don't” He whimpered. I rose standing straight and tall.
“You are banished if ever I see your face you will be sorry” I snarled. He whimpered as the wind blew hard swirling around him. I saw a mark appear on his forehead, the mark of an outcast. He turned and slowly walked away. I laid down. 'Why me' I thought when I heard someone coming in behind me. I snapped to attention and looked behind me.
“Are you alright Sandra?” Will asked worried. He came over to me and started licking my wound. I moved then nudged his muzzle away and started licking his wound clean. He stood patient and waiting. It was a long while but finally I was done. He nudged me.
“Thank you” He said. I smiled and shook my head.
“Will I..” I paused and sat frustrated. Will laughed a carefree laugh. I cocked my head.
“What?” I asked annoyed. He kept chuckling. I snorted then stood as Dawn came out of the shadows.
“Shadow you need to be careful, I didn't need you to jump in between it, I wanted to take him on for what he did to you.” Dawn said. I shook my head sadly.
“Dawn.” I started.
“NO what he did to you was wrong and he never should have done it.” Dawn snarled bristling. I watched him calmly.
“And now he has paid so drop it.” I growled. Will watched me closely.
“It couldn't have been that bad she seems fine to me.” Will said. I smirked and Dawn snarled.
“He tore her apart because she was leaving.” Dawn said. I winced. Will cocked his head.
“What happened?” He asked. Dawn turned away looking over his shoulder.
“That is her story not mine.” He growled walking off. I was going to kill Storm the next time I saw him. I looked to Will then down.
“About two years ago I was picked to go find someone. I was about to leave when I thought I should tell Storm because at the time we had been close and getting closer but when I told him I was leaving he fell apart in every way. Storm lost his mind and started fighting me. I didn't want to hurt him but I was forced to try but I was too badly hurt to fight when I thought to.” I paused a tear falling.
“Dawn found us and tore into Storm. Storm of course was fast and got away before more damage could be done. Dawn was angry but didn't chase Storm he instead started to help heal me. Healing isn't forbidden but it is dangerous. It took about three days and nights before I was healed. Dawn was out from healing me so I called his pack and left them a message for him.” I paused again and looked up. Will was shaking from anger.
“After the fight with Storm I became obsessed with fighting. I fought hard and long every day. I came up with new ways to fight while looking for you. I even went to the lengths of studying Martial Arts when I was human. It all paid off within a year I was the greatest fighter, tracker and trickster.” I smiled.
“I finally returned here to look for the one who would complete me and fight against the war to come. I was told that if I howled long and low with the music of the wind to guide it then that someone would find me. I didn't know I would be hunted for a year when all I had to do was talk to you.” I paused and looked at him. He was confused.
“You see you are the one I was looking for Will.” I said.
“You will help me make peace between both man and animal until the next Black wolf is born.” I said. Will shook his head. I could tell he doubted it. I didn't know how to do this. I nudged him then pushed him.
“Come on lets go” I said. He stood and we walked off. I looked back to see Storm in the trees watching us in anger. I stopped and lifted my head letting a chilling yet challenging howl loose. I felt the wind dance around me as I let my head back down. I turned to Will and we left. We came to a small heard and I wanted to eat but didn't know if Dawn was out there. I waited for about ten minuets before looking to Will and nodding. He nodded back and we started forward crouching in the slow peaking grass. We picked a steady buck and just as I was about to lunge for his neck he looked at me. I froze and Will lunged for his throat. The buck bayed before starting to buck. I saw a hoof almost hit Will and jumped into action grabbing a hoof and pulling it away. The bull landed on his side and kicked out. Will bite down harder and the Buck gurgled before dying. I looked around and saw Dawn step out of the woods with his pack. I snorted and quickly took several bites in my mouth and moved. Will did the same but took a leg with him. I chuckled through the meat in my mouth as we moved to the edge of the trees. I dropped my meat and started eating. Will was crunching on the leg when a small wolf came over. This small wolf was probable only a year old. I watched as he growled at Will. Will looked up from the leg he had been chewing on and watched this young one. The young one growled and stepped closer. I looked toward the kill and saw it was surrounded there was hardly anyplace to get to. I looked sadly to the pup then to Will before sighing and standing. I walked over to the kill and snarled loud and clear everyone jumped away from the kill even Dawn. I quickly grabbed a big chunk and dragged it over to the young pup who had froze when I had snarled. I dropped it beside him and went back to munching on the meat I had gotten earlier. The young pup laid down and started chewing on it. I smiled and finished. I looked to Will who was still chuckling and motioned for him to hurry up. He shook his head and started chewing slowly on his piece. I rolled my eyes and watched the pup. He had eaten a small portion of the chunk and was now resting. I looked over at Dawns pack to find them watching me. I stood looking for Dawn and ducked as he jumped at me from behind. I stayed down as he went flying through where I had been. Everyone started laughing as Dawn got up
