“What's your name?” | ask her.

“Sarah. Now go, your secret is safe with me, Guardian.” She stresses the word. Guardian is the only thing that

anyone calledhere, so that is what she knows

| thank her before checking to see if anyone is around. It's chaos and everyone is running, either hunting

vampires or bringing people out to the trucks. | hop out. of the truck and skirt around several others, keeping to

the shadows until | get to a forest line. Once | hit the forest, I run.

I've been running for days. I've found water easily, rinsing off the smell of the vampires and the left over blood

from my last night with the vampires. Food, however, has been impossible forto find. Without Alessia to hunt

for me, and in my weakened state, | haven't been able to catch anything. I've found sberries and some

other plants that | can eat to keepalive, but nothing substantial enough to keep up the pace that | need in

order to get far away from

my past.

At night, | find caves or trees to climb trying to keep myself safe from large predators or vampires that may be

out running from the hunters as well.

Based on the direction of the sun rising and setting, I'm heading south. | remember all those years ago, that my

family had been heading north and that is what brought us into vampire territory. | don’t know where the coven

was in relation to where we were found, but south seemed as good an option as any, and I've kept to that

direction. Eventually, I'll get to the ocean, if | survive that long.

I've been walking today. It’s been a day since | had water and too many days to count since I've had a real meal.

I'm ready to sit down and rest when | hear the sound that | haven't heard in years. The howl of a wolf. It's not

just any howl, it’s the sound of a wolf on the hunt.

I don’t know if it is hunting me, or if I'm just in the vicinity of where it is hunting, but when | hear others taking

to safety.

How do | keep getting into these situations? First vampires, then hunters, now werewolves. I'm so tired, maybe

it’s not worth the fight anymore. | could be with my parents again. There would be no more pain, no more

| hear the pounding of paws closing in on me. I'm running as fast as | can, darting around tress and bushes until |

run right into a clearing. | only get a couple of steps when three wolves cout of the woods from the other

side. | stop dead in my tracks. I'm about to turn and run in a different direction when | hear another two cup

behind me.

“Please.” | beg. | don’t even know what I'm begging for, | just know that | don’t want to be caught and

imprisoned again. “Please, no.” | say before exhaustion takes over and the darkness sinks in.
