The Double Moon, Amber Riel [books for new readers .TXT] 📗

human or any other creature anyways. Okay?"
Millie kind of smiled. She knew Kyle was being honest. "I know."
"Anyways," Champ continued, "she got the results, and I was right."
Millie's smile grew wider. A plan popped into her head. "Good.... Now, we'll have to make it look good." Preparing for the Night

It was the day of the full moon. It was after 3 O'clock pm. Kat walked up the steps of the porch and knocked on the door. She waited patiently for someone to answer.
When the door opened, she smiled to see Wagner at the door. "Hello, Kat," the child said.
"Hi, Wagner. Is Champ here?"
"Yea. Come on in."
Kat walked into the house and Wagner closed the door.
"I'll go get Champ.... He's in his room."
"Okay."
Wagner went up the stairs and Kat just stood in the hall. She noticed that the new cottage was built some what like the older one. For some reason she hadn't noticed the resemblance.
Kyle rushed past Kat and went out the door. He was kind of in a hurry and James wasn't far behind him.
"James," Kat said. "What's going on?"
James stopped at the door and turned to face her. Kat realized that he was more wolf than human. "Tonight's the full moon and we have a party to get to," he told her. "Your boyfriend will tell you." He walked out the door.


A couple of minutes later, Champ made his way down the stairs. He looked the same as James. His wolf features took over the human features on his face. "Kat," he said.
Kat turned to face him. "Champ." She paused. "I want to go with you guys."
"No," Millie stated, rudely, walking out of the living room. "I have to deal with more of my enemies than I want to.... I don't want to deal with an other one."
"But...."
"I agree with Millie," Champ said as Millie walked out of the house.
"But, Ch---"
"Look, it's too dangerous for you. You have to stay."
Kat dropped her mouth in disbelief. "But...."
"I don't want to see you get hurt and believe me things are going to get out of control.... Christina is a dog-witch and if she finds out what we have planned..... She could use that dog whistle, and then...." Champ had to take a moment. "Things could get really ugly.... I don't want anything to happen to you.... Please, stay here.... Go hang out with Jean.... Or go do something with Lee and Ann.... I want you to be safe."
Kat understood what Champ was saying, but she wanted to go so bad. "What if you get hurt or something?" she asked, tears filled her eyes.
"Don't worry about me," Champ reassured her. "I'll be fine. Okay?"
"Okay."
Champ kind of gave Kat a hug to let her know that things were going to work out.

Striking Nerves

Millie and her pack, including James, walked into the old warehouse. It was dark inside of the warehouse because all of the windows were blocked off.
"Well," Christina said, walking into the room, "I didn't think that any of you wolves would show up." She laughed devilishly as Vickey came out of another room. They both were standing on the second floor.
"So, where's the surprise?" Millie asked.
"You'll find out.... But first.... Do you know why I wanted you all here?"
"I have a pretty good idea."
James walked over next to his niece and Christina was confused. "Whatever reason you wanted us here for.... Then...." He looked over at Millie for help and then to the two women. He didn't know what he was going to say. Luckily, Christina had cut him off.
Christina knew that there were seven members in the pack, and knew that they were all kids, but didn't know who James was. "Who are you, old man?"
"That's James," Vickey replied, whispering. "He's Millie and Shawn's uncle. My ex-boyfriend. I used him to get to kill his brother and his brother's wife."
"Oh." Christina smiled. "That's good." She looked at her watch. "We have to until the full moon comes out...."
"You two make a good team.... I'm going to laugh, when you two decide to turn on each other.... We know how you turned on your boyfriend, Hitler, Christina.... And we all remember how you turned on us, Vickey." Millie was trying to see how ticked of she could make the two villains.
It worked. Christina grabbed the railing. Her grip tightened as she cringed in anger. Vickey balled her fist, eyeing the wolf.
"Yea.... That's why we don't work in a team.... We work in a pack.... The difference between a pack and a team is that a pack works together no matter what, while a team can turn on each other.... A pack of wolves is like a pride of lions.... We stand to together.... We don't plot each others deaths.... See, Vickey, Christina can use her dog whistle and we'll be under her spell, and she can have us kill you.... And, Christina, Vickey can have a bunch of humans destroy you.... Oh, but, unlike you, Vickey, Christina can come back if that dog whistle isn't destoried.... So, she'll come back normally, while you're laying in your coffin...."
The two grew angrier.
"Oh.... I'm sorry.... Did I strike a nerve?"
"You, dumb mutt.... You can't get your prize, but I'll show you," Christina said, snapping her fingers.
The wolves heard a door open, but they didn't know where it opened.
"Wh---"
"MILLIE!" two voices called. One sounded like a man, while the other sounded like a woman.
The voices sounded fimilar and Millie turned around to see who they were, when shock took over. She seen Tom and Jane trapped in a cage. "Tom.... Jane.... Oh no...." Anger took place of the shock and she turned back toward Christina and Vickey. "Let them go...."
"I'm sorry, did I strike a nerve?" Christina asked, using Millie's words.
"Let them go.... They don't deserve that...."
Christina started laughing. "I'm not letting them go.... If you want your human friends alive, then I suggest that you do what I tell you."
"What?"
"I want to watch you fight."
"It's a trick," James said. "Don't agree to it."
"I'll do what I want," Millie replied, rudely. "Bring it on."
"Millie.... This is...."
"Just go back to the pack," she growled.
James slowly made his way back to the others.
"So.... Who am I fighting?"
"A friend," Christina answered, snapping her fingers again.
The garage door in front of Millie opened to revealed an angry, good size, rabid dobbermen. The dog had white fizz foming around his mouth. He slowly worked his way into the room.
Millie kind of looked over to her pack and winked. She was ready to fight.
The light came on to reveal that Millie was almost completely in her lycan form. It also revealed that Millie and the dog were standing in a circle. They slowly circled around, waiting for the other to attack.
"This is it." Christina smiled.
The dog jumped and went to attack. Millie gently punched the dog's mouth. They fought dodging the attacks from each other and at some point Millie let the dog bite her. She made it look like she went to punch him and missed when he bit her arm.
Christina's smile grew into an evil grin.
Millie flung her arm and the dog went flying into a bunch of empty boxes. She grabbed her arm in pain and looked up at the two women. She acted like something terrible was going on inside of her.
"Don't fight the feeling.... You'll be on our side like it or not."
James walked out into the light. "What do you mean? What's happening to her?"
"She was biten by a rabid dog."
Millie turned to face James. They both were in their monsterous forms and Millie had managed to let her mouth fizz up.

Back Fired

Millie went to attack James. She grabbed his shoulders and pulled him closer to her. "Remember, we have to make it look good," she whispered.
"Okay." James pushed Millie's claws off of his shoulders and they started to fight. In the process of the fight, Millie knocked James to the ground.
"Good, girl," Christina said. "Now, finish him off."
Millie turned to look back up at Christina.
"What are you waiting for? ATTACK!"
Millie ran and jumped up next to Christina. "You said, 'Attack.'" Millie jumped and her and Christina both fell in the middle of the room on the first floor and all the other wolves gathered around. Millie backed away and Christina stood in the middle of the pack.
"What's going on?"
"You didn't do your research. We're already infected with rabies.... That's why we have a werewolf form."
Christina was confused. She was certain that Millie would become evil.
"This time," Millie growled, "you're dead."
The wolves didn't give Christina any time to pull out her dog whistle when they all tackled her. She didn't stand a chance against them. Once she was gone, Millie used her mouth to pick up the dog whistle and chewed it up 'till there was nothing left of it.
Vickey watched what they had done. She couldn't believe it. They had devoured the dog-witch without any hestitation.
Tom and Jane looked away. They knew that the pack had to do what they could to stop the evil non-human in order to protect the human race.
Millie looked up at Vickey and eyed her. Vickey could tell that Millie was ticked off at her. She knew something bad was going to happen to her.
