Trini couldn’t see her, but he knew she was at least a mile in front of them. Jason turned and looked at the group of three.
“We should try and catch her. It could be part of our training,” Jason said.
“Why should we? We are being held prisoners here. We can’t go anywhere! If we do, people will die,” Isabella replied upset.
“Isabella makes a valid point about being prisoners, plus I don’t run,” Mohinder said as he touched his gut.
“Mohinder, you been trying to get me to workout for the last year. Now you’re backing out?” Jason asked as he looked at his friend. Mohinder shrugged his shoulders and looked at the ground. Jason looked at Trini for guidance.
You know me, babe, I’m down for anything thing. I’ll jump into the deep end with you anytime. Trini then gave Jason a large smile. “I’ll race you,” Trini said.
Jason found the support he looked for and nodded. The two stood side by side and took off, leaving Mohinder and Isabella at the cabin.
Trini stumbled at first, but then found her footing as she moved quicker than she ever moved before. The wind felt great in Trini’s face as she and Jason ran through the open plain of grass. Trini could not believe the speed that her legs were carrying her. Trini felt as if they both rented out a Corvette and put the top down as they cruised through the open forest plain. Trini looked to her left as Jason showed her an endless smile. He looked more handsome than ever. His mahogany lips were wide as they attempted to contain his mile-long grin as they dashed across the plain.
“This is great, I feel like a cheetah!” he shouted at Trini as they ran.
Trini smirked at Jason’s comment, “Nerd!” she shouted in a playful manner. Jason laughed and did his best impression of a werewolf howl. To Trini’s surprise, it sounded like the real thing. Jason laughter halted when they got closer to a forest at the edge of the grassy plain. The pair stopped and stood still as they stared at the tall wall of trees. Jason’s joyful facial features turned serious, as he calculated his next move.
“Where did Allison go?” Jason asked Trini. She searched the woods like a hawk.
“Do you smell that?” she asked Jason, looking towards a particular direction. Jason lifted his nose like a dog and inhaled.
“It smells like strawberries,” Jason replied to Trini. She nodded in agreement and turned her head back to the origin of the smell. “Not to mention, if we’ve been in out for six months, that would mean it is December. Therefore, strawberries don’t grow in North Carolina in the winter. I bet you that’s Allison. Lead the way,” Jason said with a hand extended.
Trini gave Jason a cocky smile and shouted, “Try to keep up!” Trini bolted like a rabbit towards the smell in the woods. Jason followed Trini and like two bloodhounds, they followed the scent to find themselves in an open woods clearing staring at Allison, Harry, David and the Deputy, O’Neal. David was looking at his watch when the two arrived as if he was timing them.
“Wow, that has to be a record,” David said as he stared at his watch. “Almost beat your time Harry.”
Harry laughed at David’s comment. “Nobody is as fast as me when it comes to tracking. They must have picked up Allison’s trail easily. Who smelled the strawberries first?” Harry asked looking at the couple. Trini raised her hand as if she was in the classroom.
“I did. I smelled the strawberries,” Trini replied.
“Good job, Allison loves strawberries. I think strawberries, besides venison, are the only food she eats,” David said with a smile.
“That’s not true, I like pizza. I would kill to have a meat lover’s slice right now,” Allison replied. The group laughed at her comment. Jason broke up the laughter and looked at David and Harry.
“Are you two are werewolves as well?”
“Yep, David and I made sure you and Trini were okay in the ambulance, then turned around to drop you off at Greg’s place.” The shorter male with brunette hair beside David spoke up as well.
“I’m Roy O’Neal. I was one of the deputies from the night you were attacked. It’s good to see you two are back on your feet,” He said smiling.
Harry looked up towards the trees as if he heard a noise in the distance.
“Your friends are on their way right now,” Harry added. Jason gave him a puzzled look. Trini looked at Jason’s scrunched up face, and knew he was calculating Harry’s actions.
He’s thinking about how Harry could tell Isabella and Mohinder were close. If he would just listen, he could hear them coming with his abilities. More doing, less thinking Jason, Trini shook her head as she looked at Jason. Trini then closed her eyes and focused on the leaves in the distance cracking. As they drew nearer, she heard two distant heavy breaths. Trini felt their presence and knew that they would be arriving soon. She turned her head slightly to the left, in the direction the couple was coming from. Within seconds, Mohinder and Isabella emerged from the forest. Both had the same expressions that he and Trini shared during their run.
“Bloody hell, talk about taking a stroll. We were moving so fast. It was brilliant,” Mohinder said looking at the group. Isabella nodded and shared her smile with the group.
“Changed my mind about being a werewolf, this isn’t too bad. That run made me feel free. I’ve never felt more confident in my life. I can see why being a werewolf is so tempting. Perhaps the training won’t be such a torture,” Isabella added.
Trini stared at Isabella’s smile. Her pale lips showed excitement, but Trini wondered if she was still sour on not being able to visit her family. I know I am, I’m going to miss my parents, but at least I have Jason. Who does she have?
“Great now that everyone is here, we can get to the cool part. How to shapeshift into your wolf,” Allison exclaimed.
“When do we change into werewolves. Is it every full moon like the movies, or can we change at any time?” asked Jason.
“For starters, the only thing the movies got right was lycans do change from humans. After that, the lore gets confusing. We can shapeshift at any time. If we change during a full moon, we become immune to death. Any wounds suffered during the moon cycle would be healed. It’s one of the few reasons why we have such a long life cycle. The moon provides us life. For example, once you turn during the moon cycle, Jason, your eczema would be healed.”
Trini could tell Jason felt ashamed about his skin condition and covered his rash with his sleeve when she pointed out his flaws.
Oh! Jason’s one weakness. While most superheroes have a mystic rock that drains their powers. Jason’s is his skin condition. I know he feels ashamed of it. He always covers it up when he thinks people are watching. I don’t care about that though. I love the man inside more than out.
“That’s good news, Jason. There’s no need to hide it,” Trini smiled
Jason smiled back at Trini. She could tell her approval gave him confidence. Trini frowned as she looked at her arm sleeve of tattoos. Each one tells a story, they are a part of my character. If I lost one, it would be like losing a part of me. Not to mention, they were expensive as fuck.
“What about tattoos?” Trini asked as she showed off the tattoos stenciled on her body.
“Those should be fine,” Allison replied.
“Yeah, I got this one in 1943 during the Second World War,” Roy added as he lifted his shirt to show a blonde bimbo with a large set of breasts.
Typical, Trini thought as she looked at the bimbo.
“In addition to tattoos, your scars from the wolf won’t heal as well.” Allison then lifted up her shirt to show a large gash on her stomach. “This was my scar from when I was attacked. I would have died if it wasn’t for Harry and David over there.”
“Guilty,” David chimed as he smiled at Harry.
“Nice abs,” Isabella said smiling at Deputy Green. Allison gave a mischievous smile back to Isabella, then proceeded to take off her shirt in front of everyone. Following her shirt, she casually removed her sports bra and revealed her naked chest. Harry, David,
and Roy followed suit and casually removed their clothes without saying a word.
“Whoa, what are you guys doing? Why are you removing your clothes?” Isabella asked with a confused look glued to her face. Allison finished removing her jeans and underwear and smiled at Isabella as she stood proudly naked in front of the group.
“It’s so that I don’t rip my clothes. Those are designer ripped jeans which I got from New York City,” Allison said as she pointed to the clothing in a neat pile. “It cost two hundred fucking bucks. There is no way I am going to rip it for a planned turn.” Harry, David, and Roy who were also naked laughed at Allison’s reply.
“Alright, guys, time to strip,” Roy said laughing. The group of four looked uneasy at first.
“Not that I wouldn’t mind showing you my amazing figure, can we pass on the stripping?” Mohinder asked as he ran his hands through his jet black hair.
“Yeah, I’m not game for that either. I mean, I just met you guys a few minutes ago,” Isabella chimed in.
“Sure, but just be warned, when you transform and rip your clothes, you will have to be walking around naked the rest of the way back to the cabin. Not to mention until we can get new clothes that fit each one of you. Your clothing options would be limited. It’s dealers’ choice,” Allison said as the wind pushed her long brown hair on top of her breast.
“What the hell!” Trini said as she started to unbutton her shirt. She casually tossed her shirt aside to show her pale cleavage keep upright by a black bra. Trini reached behind her back and unclasped her bra to show her untamed breasts. Trini halted removing her clothes and looked at Jason. Shit, this is the first time that he is going to see me naked. I would have liked for this to go down a little differently, perhaps with fewer people and a bed. Oh well, Trini concluded as she unbuttoned her jeans and shimmied out of her clothing. She tossed the reminder her outfit aside and stood proudly naked.
Trini looked at Jason and noticed he was breathing heavily as he looked at her figure.
He must be turned on my by her figure. Good, take it in Jason. It’s yours to take.
Trini watched as Jason grabbed his shirt and tore it off his body. Her eyes were dazzled by the shape of Jason’s body. While it wasn’t in a shape of a model, it was still slim enough to be sexy. Jason removed his jeans and underwear to become naked. Trini eyeballed Jason’s physique and wanted to lick each part of his body. When her eyes landed on his penis, she felt her legs tremble, and her thighs get moist.
For such a small man, he definitely makes it up in other places, Trini thought as she imagined Jason’s large shaft sliding between her thighs.
Jason gave a big smile to Trini, then turned his attention back to the others. Trini recognized that she needed to do the same and looked at Mohinder and Isabella. “Alright, guys. Come on in, the water is fine,” Trini said.
“Yep, we have nothing to hide brother. We are all one now,” Harry added. Mohinder looked at Jason for guidance. Jason smiled and held up thumbs up to his adopted brother.
“You got this Mohinder. No one will judge you.”
Mohinder nodded and slowly, he and Isabella removed their clothing.
Trini thought it was a bit awkward the way the two slowly removed their clothing. She could tell that the two were not comfortable with their bodies. Isabella was like Mohinder; she was short and a bit chubby in the stomach. However, Trini still thought she looked good for her curvy size. Mohinder must have been ashamed for the same reasons as his body blushed in a deep red as he removed his boxers. They both seemed even more uncomfortable once they were fully nude. Mohinder and Isabella both covered their privates as they stared at the group waiting for further instructions. Allison looked at the two with a raised eyebrow.
“You know that won’t make a difference right? Isabella and Mohinder, be proud of your body. You two look amazing. Plus with time and training, each one of you would look different from your former selves today. Hell, look at us, the wolf is going to sculpture your bodies to look like Greek gods.” She said with a wink towards Isabella. “Alright, now that everyone is in their birthday suits and looking sexy, it’s time to awaken the wolf. Harry, after we awaken them, double back and get our stuff,” Allison commanded.
“You got it, Allison,” Harry replied.
“Wait, you said we are going awaken our wolves. How do we do that?” Jason asked.
“With fear,” she replied with a dark smile.
Chapter 13
What does she mean our abilities would be awakened by fear? Jason thought as he stared at his four naked mentors across from him. Allison showed a devilish grin and then nodded towards Harry, David, and Roy. As if she gave them a silent command, the quartet laughed all at once, then broke into a dead sprint towards the group opposite of them. As they ran, Jason, Trini, Mohinder, and Isabella all took a step backward. Their faces showed surprise and confusion as they stared at their sudden attackers.
“What are you guys doing?” Jason shouted confused as he stepped further back.
“Whoa, let’s calm down here, mates!” Mohinder said as he also realized the change in the mood of the group. The group received no answer, instead received more laughter from the four.
Have they gone crazy? It was as if they had lost the will to speak, Jason thought as he watched them charge towards him. It was as if they were being controlled from their animalistic side. Slowly, their laughter became long-winded howls. As for Jason, he heard the familiar wolf howl from the other night. As he listened to the sound, it triggered more memories from his freighting night.
His mind replayed the werewolf leaping over his head attacking the blonde. Like a movie, his memory moved to another scene where he saw Mohinder’s bloody face staring at him. Another howl from a distance broke Jason’s thoughts and brought him back to the present.
Jason watched Harry in midstride leap high in the air. Jason watched with amazement at Harry’s quick transformation. His pale body grew black fur. At first, the hair growth wasn’t noticeable, and then suddenly it became the only thing Jason could stare at. A thick coat of jet black hair covered his body.
Harry made another howl as his face became lengthy and a snout grew where his nose and mouth was located. His hands and feet became longer, and black claws grew on each one of his digits. His eyes grew dark red and narrowed to fit his growing wolf-shaped skull.
Within seconds, Jason was staring at the monster that terrified himself and his friends that night. Harry was now a full werewolf. He landed flawlessly on the leaf covered ground. The orange and red foliage flew off the ground as he landed on his hind legs. He howled once more and continued to run switching between all fours and two legs towards the group.
Jason still couldn’t believe that he was staring at another werewolf. His mind formed tunnel vision once more as he only stared at Harry’s werewolf. Harry made another howl towards the sky and continued his charge until he made his way in front of Trini. Harry leaped high in the air, and in one swift move, tackled Trini onto the ground. Jason watched in horror as Trini tried to dodge Harry’s attack. She was too slow, even with her enhanced abilities, to move out of his way. Harry opened up his large black snout, relieving his white canine fangs. The fangs snapped near Trini’s face as she tried to avoid his bite. Jason attempted to help Trini and ran towards Harry.
“Get off of her Harry! You’re hurting her!” Jason pushed the large furry body of Harry’s werewolf, but the wolf paid no mind to Jason’s attempt. Jason looked back down at Trini. “Hang on Trini. I’ll get him-“
Then to Jason’s amazement, he witnessed Trini’s dark eyes grow red. Her pale skin started to grow brown autumn fur. Her screams turned into howls as her face grew into a snout. Jason watched Trini’s transformation until he felt himself leave his feet. In midair, he turned and realized that he was being tackled by another werewolf. Jason’s heart began to pump fast as soon as he felt his feet leave the dirt. He felt the adrenaline flow through his body as he attempted to dodge the werewolf
’s wild bites towards his face.
His heart was beating faster than ever as if the organ was beating on his rib cage, trying to break free. The tension in his body made himself want to scream. Like magic, Jason felt the change. It was subtle at first. His skin felt warmer as a coat of grey fur covered his body. Every inch was covered in fur. He felt his head squeeze and bend. He could see his nose and mouth extend as he grew a snout. His teeth felt longer and sharp as they took their shape. His nails grew longer as if they were uncut for months. He could feel them get stronger and take shape as claws. Jason continued to scream until he realized the werewolf on top of him released its grip.
Jason stood up on his hind legs and looked at the werewolf in front of him. Jason tried to speak towards the wolf, however, he couldn’t form a word. The werewolf that pinned him seemed happy as it wagged its tail. The brown fur werewolf walked backward with its tail wagging and let out a loud howl. Jason looked to his left and noticed Trini had taken shape, and she howled on cue as well. To his right, Mohinder and Isabella were both werewolves as well.
Isabella had brown fur and was the smallest wolf of the group. To Jason’s surprise, Mohinder looked to be the strongest of the group with a large torso. He had black fur similar to Harry’s. All four tilted their heads back and howled to the sky in unison. Jason never felt so alive.
In front of Jason, stood four other werewolves, each one was wagging their tails. Jason once more tried to communicate with them with speech, but he still could not speak. His only forms of communication were a growl or howl. The werewolf in the middle had grey fur and walked forward towards the group of four. Jason assumed this was Allison due to the way the other werewolves followed her example. Allison walked pass the group and pointed her nose towards a trail that led towards back to the cabin. She howled once more, then took off running.
