Nevermore, Chapter 2
“Man, this day just keeps getting weirder and weirder. So, why aren’t we allowed to see you guys? I don’t get it…” Cayla sat down with an eager expression like a child being told a children’s story.

“Well, your ‘leaders,’ per se, decided that they wanted you all to be ignorant to the mythical creatures that live here. Naturally, they spoke to our ancestors and we all agreed that it was best to remain hidden from you humans. However, against the laws set by those leaders, some of your kind told hideous stories of us, exaggerating our appearances and actions. They accused lycans of being no better than blood-sucking vampires. When we become accustom to the changes, we’re aware of what we do and are more cautious to the rules while vampires couldn’t care either way. They’ll kill their own kind and laugh at them. Oh, and pixies! People get pixies and fairies confused all the time! They think pixies are the sweet and innocent ones and fairies are the bad ones. NO! Pixies are deceptive- they’re so rotten to the core, no one can stand them which is why they remain hidden. They’ve been neglecting the rules and playing all sorts of pranks on you humans- they’re as bad as gremlins! The fairies that are falsely accused are actually graceful and kind as though they were royalty. You will never meet one that is not regal in some way.
“Anyway, I went off subject. That’s the 4-1-1 on yours truly. Now, those boneheads chasing me were none other than vampires. Let me tell you, they HATE lycans and humans with a passion and to intrude on their territory means death. Well, of course stupid me wanted to show off and spy. I found out a small amount of information before I clumsily fell through the gate and got caught. The rest, you’re aware of.”

Cayla sat there befuddled. “Wait… So what we thought was fake was really real?” Her eyes began glistening with interest. “Are there, like, any gods and stuff?”

“Whoa. Stop there. The ‘gods’—multiple, little‘g’—ARE fake. Same as those ridiculous superheroes in comic book stores-- not real. Really, a lot of us have different views on the forces around us. I, personally, believe that God--singular, big ‘G’—is behind everything. However, no one seems to believe it’s logical for a ‘demonic’ creature such as me to have this faith…”

“Yeah, you don’t even look like those crazy nuns from history.”

“Wait—in history?”

“Yup. They’ve banned all religions because ‘they don’t agree with science.’”

“When did this happen?” Luna was getting a little tense.

“ Umm… About twenty-eight years ago.”

Luna’s shoulders fell into a slouch. “This doesn’t make sense… Everything seemed fine ten years ago…” She straightened her back into her usual posture and turned to face the eastern part of the woods. “I better go… The knuckleheads are probably still looking for me.”

Cayla jumped to her feet eagerly. “Let me go with you! I know about you guys now, so what does it matter?” Her anticipation was annoyingly increasing.

Luna sighed heavily and pondered her choices for a minute. She would just follow her back not matter what she said, so it wouldn’t make much of a difference. “Whatever. Just keep your mouth shut as long as we’re in vampire territory. I don’t want you to start fighting when you’re still so inexperienced.”

“’Inexperienced?’ Tch. Yeah right.”

“Have you fought a vampire and won before? A REAL one?”

“Well… Not exactly…”

“Exactly my point. Now, c’mon.”

Luna led Cayla deeper and deeper in to the forest until they finally reached an enormous stone wall with a pair of large medieval doors. Luna approached them and pounded her fist until a slot opened and a pair of eyes peeped through.

“Identification.”

“C’mon, Gene, you know darn well it’s me.”

“Yeah, I know. But just ‘cause I know it’s you don’t mean anything.”

“Fine. Luna Ravenclau of the Royal Guard of Lady Charlotte accompanying a new friend…” She sounded very bored, which made Cayla snicker a bit.

“Friend? Who would you be bringing here?”

“A human. Strangely enough, I ran into her while escaping death and I had no choice but to tell her everything.”

“Lady Charlotte will have your hide for dinner when she hears about this… But, hey, it’s your funeral.” He closed the slot and began opening the doors so that the two could enter. Cayla nearly had a spasm at the site of fawns standing guard beside the gates. “Welcome to the Forrest Kingdom of Bachei, miss.” The way he said it sounded more cold than welcoming.

Nevermore, Piece 1
She peered through a small hole in the den she awoke in to see if she knew where she was. Nothing but trees, dead leaves, and your occasional animal passing through could be seen. The sunlight streamed in, making it difficult to see without being blinded. What was she doing in that hole? Everything in her mind was blank and she couldn’t remember anything after looking at the beauty of the full moon the previous night. Nothing like this ever happened before. She placed her hand on her forehead and felt something unexpected. She removed her hand and looked at her fingertips.

“Wha… Why am I bleeding?” She took a few minutes to think and sat in the dry leaves. Maybe that’s why she can’t remember anything- she was knocked out by something. But, what was she doing in that den and why couldn’t she get out easily? Her expression changed from confusion to realization. “I’ve been kidnapped. Maybe if I yell loud enough someone will hear and come save me.” That she did. Unfortunately for her, her screams could not be heard and she came close to losing her voice. All thoughts of hope were gone; she leaned against the side of the den and shrank into her imagination as tears streamed down her face.

Her thoughts were racing like mad trying to remember what happened the previous night. The possibilities were endless: drugged, kidnapped, knocked out and left for dead. Who knows? All she knew was that she wanted out of that hole yesterday. Of course, minutes became hours and hours… Well, actually, the time passed pretty quickly considering how she fell asleep after about ten minutes of daydreaming.
Outside of Cayla's little den, there was some strange commotion going on. A brunette girl in a long black cloak was running as fast as unhumanly possible, dodging miniscule obsticles that you would find in your typical forrest. Running closely behind were some even stranger characters baring their fangs.. It was almost like some kind of high-speed chase, with the two odd things as the cops.

She turned around and continued running-- only backwards. "You know, boys, if you keep your mouths open like that you're bound to be eating some fairly large bugs." She cast a spell causing a shadow to push a bee hive in front of them and turned back around. In a split-second, as soon as she saw a huge fallen tree smothered in moss and leaves she smiled and leaped over it- falling into the den. Sadly, her usual grip that keeps her from losing her balance after landing disappeared and she collided with sleepy-head Cayla. She abruptly woke up.

"WATCH IT!! What do you think you're doing???"

"Shut it!" The brunette snapped quietly. She cautiously peeked through the den's entrance to see if they were still following. She heard leaves and twigs crunching, but saw nothing.

"Excuse me?? Who are you to tell a complete stranger to 'Shut it'??" Cayla was really getting aggrivated from the day's events. She huffed and pushed her reverse-bobbed hair out of her face and brushed the leaves and dirt off her shirt. "It's bad enough to say it like that, but to someone you don't know-- That's just insulting!"

The brunette heard the men move abrubtly and grabbed Cayla by the shoulders enough to hurt her. "Look, if you don't at least quiet down, we're BOTH dead. GOT IT?" She shook her a little.

"Yeah... What's going on?"

"I'll tell you when they're gone..." She listened as closely as possible and heard them walk away. "Finally, I can breathe without smelling their stench." She faked a sneeze and started to climb out of the den.

Cayla grabbed the brunette's cloak and refused to let go. "HEY! Where do you think you're going?? You can't just leave me here! Plus, you said you would explain what just happened! Who are you? Where'd you come from?"

She sighed deeply shaking her head. What have I gotten myself into? "Fine. Here, place a foot on my hands and I'll lift you up." She linked her fingers and held her hands down at stepping-height. Cayla looked at her uneasily. "C'mon- I don't bite."

"How will you get out?"

"Oh, don't worry about that. I can take care of myself." She grinned as though she had some sort of secret.

"Alright.." She cautiously placed one foot firmly in her hands and almost instantly found herself soaring out of the hole and flat on her butt on the surface. "Ouchi... Who has that kind of strength??" She wobbily stood up and looked around trying to gather her bearings but still had no clue as to where she was. Suddenly, she saw a black blur jumping out of the den, high into the air where it lingered for about two seconds, and land. She stood completely befuddled. "WOW! How'd you do THAT???" Her facial expression immediately changed from confusion to excitement. "That was so cool! I've never seen anything like that before! You must've been the best in your Phys Ed class... Wow.. I can't find anything else to say but 'Wow'!"

"Alright, alright! I get the picture. I jump cool. Okay." She shook her head again and muttered something to herself in what sounded like gibberish. "Alright, how about I answer those questions of yours. I'll start with the grill about me: My name is Luna Ravenclau- please just say Luna and NO nicknames. I hate the things people come up with for me. I come from the forrest east of here- the Forrest of Bache, where humans are not permitted..."

"Wait- so how do you live there??"

"I was just getting to that.. The thing of it is, I'm not fully human- only during the day and any night that is deprived of a full moon's glow. You see, I'm a lycan."

"A WHAT? What the heck is that??"

"A werewolf."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yeah, I know I said I was going to make a special site for it and all that, but I'm having some editing-problems and what-not and I wanted to be nice and actually keep my promise of letting you guys get to read my stuff instead of me talking about it and then not doing anything because I'm too lazy. ^^; Still with me? Awesome.

So, what do YOU think is going to happen next?? (Sorry, but I HAVE to ask xD)

   Find Me Tonight
It kinda figures, I guess.. I do end up jinxing things a lot..

My journal readers should remember back in December (Wow, I'm a poet and didn't know it xD) how I had to put down my dog Princess.. Well, as any average person would even when devestated, I wanted to move on and not feel so much pain over our loss and just get a new puppy.. Well, we got one last week- you may have seen the picture previously in my journal (it's deleted now). The most precious little girl... Border collie-Lab mix (Labrocollie), white fur with blonde patches (hence the name Patches). She just lightened everyone's moods and was so great to us, you wouldn't believe it.. So friendly, lovable, and energetic...

I just wish she had gotten her first vaccination at 6 weeks, before we got her..

Puppy owners, HEED THESE WORDS: Make sure you give your puppy ALL the vaccinations he/she needs before letting it meet other dogs or anything. Parvo is really bad this year, and you may regret it... For those who don't know, parvo is HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS AND DEADLY IF NOT TREATED. If your puppy seems very unhappy and is vomiting and having unusually-colored diarrhea problems, GET TO THE VET! Take a parvo test IMMEDIATELY. We were unable to treat this because we didn't have the money to pay for it.. I loved my Patches with all of my heart- She was only 10 weeks old.. I will truly miss her beautiful face and hazel eyes..

If you have suffered a loss of any sort, remember the words of this song and call on Jesus for all your aches and pains..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yesterday, I could not feel this.
Today I'm sick of trying
to live like I can live on my own.
This world around me is suffocating.
I keep forgetting to turn and run to you

So find me wherever I am.
Won't you find me?
I've got myself lost,
and I don't think I want to
be roaming in heartache.
Please find me tonight.

I make it hard,
and I cant stand it,
can't drag my head around it.
I wrestle with you more than I should.
I've made a mess of everything,
but you see the best in me.
I'll never be too far gone.

So find me wherever I am.
Won't you find me?
I've got myself lost,
and I don't think I want to
be roaming in heartache.
Please find me tonight.

You speak without sound.
Your love is so loud.
You always save me.

So find me,
I don't want to be roaming.
