Chapter 22
What would have you done after being caught by an egological, introverted and savage person staring at his back? Stand overthere and tell him that hey no actually I was just thinking about something. Me. No. I directly made a run for it. I was very nicely caught by the back of my collar and brought back to the balcony. These supernatural’s need to respect us a little.
“I would like to have the presence of the girl, who had the strength to put a tube of chemical in the King’s pocket in front of a hall full of werewolves who would have thrashed her in pieces. Okay so was he complementing me or insulting me? It much more sounded like an insult. It was the first time I was going to have a conversation with him.
Without beating around the bush he directly asked me the question which I dreaded the most.” Why did you helped us even though we had been nothing but cruel to you?” It was enough for me to go back to my past. The dreadful past which I had comethrough.
The past which was the actual which was the actual reason I risked my life to save them. The event 10 years before which made me go through everything just to save their species. Everyone thinks that werewolves are evil, cruel and bla bla bla. They ruled us, they tortured us, they have no hearts, they are heartless. No! They have hearts that too much bigger than us humans.
This theory was proved to me when I was 10 years old. My recently made fake family had decided to go on a camping strip. Well It was more of a testing for dad and social media updates for the Satan and the experiment. It happened while returning back home.
My excuse of a family left me behind to travel in the 2nd jeep as there was non space in the 1st one. The 2nd jeep was getting ready to leave. Everyone was going around to make a last minute check of everything. Me being the 10 year old idiot I was thought about trying to start a research on something noone would have ever discovered, which lead for me to be driven away from the main camp.
It went on till evening and yes my sneaking ass had forgotten its way. Still having the great ego of a donkey I kept walking like I knew where I was going. It was almost time for the sun to be settled. I came across 3 people who looked like hunters due tom their dressing senses. Meeting them the first thought that came to my mind was that God loved me more than anything else. Little did I knew that I was going to regret it.
I asked them to help me return back. It was night time soon. I was given a special tent to stay in for. I slept like a sloth but some noise mad me awake. I woke up to see 1 of the hunters in the tent. “Do you need some help uncle?” me being the great respectful person( I still am) asked.
“Yes.” was the response I received.
" Oh can I help you to search for it?”
“No you just need to give it to me.”
“What can I give you?”
“Some pleasure.” saying that next I knew he was lying on me.
He started removing my pants which resulted in it to tear up in the thighs. But guess what the great kung fu panda I was I bit him on his nose and ran out of the tent to call for help. The other two came out of their tents. I told them what took place with me. I thought they would try to console me and beat the shit out of that idiot.
But the next words I herd shook me to my core. “Couldn’t you be a little more careful and less noisy you would have been done with her by now.” The sentence itself made a shiver run through my spine. I being the huge cheetah I though myself made a run directly towards the forest. Without thinking I ran as fast as my legs could take me just in order to keep myself alive. I felt a stick been hit to my leg and lost my balance.
Here it was. Everything was going to end. 10 years of life watching doraemon was going to end. Atleast I would have watched some newly released episodes of tom and jerry for the last time. Yes this was my thinking at the last moments of my life. But guess God really had a little sympathy for me. I heard a snap behind me. I didn’t had the energy of looking behind as I had hit my head on the ground which led me for a 2 minute of unconsciousness. There was a low growl heard behind me.
The hunters who had reached near me now looked a little terrified, even though they had guns in their hands. I was having my consciousness back a little at a time. With great effort I turned back and to my absolute horror there was a huge werewolf standing just behind me.
I had almost pissed my pissed my pants if I didn’t remember the great lady I was. The werewolf jumped and I closed my eyes. Yes it was finally over. But I felt nothing. Slowly opening my eyes I saw that the werewolf was sinking his teeth in one of the hunters neck. One of the remaining one’s shot the wolf. It looked in pain but it killed one of the remaining one’s easily.
The last one was holding a big gun which could easily kill the wolf. That was the moment the werewolf turned towards me and for a second I thought that it was giving me a message to run. The pain was visible in its eyes. His death was visible. But then too with all the pain he still was blocking me from the hunter, still trying to protect me. Those eyes full of pain still wanting me safe.
Without looking back I ran. Not towards him but the opposite way. I left him behind. I left those bright yellow eyes behind to die. After running some distance I heard the noise of a gun being fired. I stopped. Those eyes. They still haunted me. They still lived in my nightmares.
“I am a person of few words and I don’t like to repeat the ‘as they are too rare.’ See told you his ego is as big as an elephant. ” Was it actually a plan made to kill us, but turned out to be the antidote.”
“No, someone helped me at the time of need, I just tried a little to pay them some respects.” He didn’t say anything. We spent sometime on the balcony. The silence was a comfortable one and not the oh-shit-I-just-got-caught-by-you-while-satring-at-your-savage-back.”
“I guess I should take my leave now.” He just nodded in answer.
Bowing to him as a respect I left the place.
I guess I misunderstood a small smile and a very familiar shade of yellow sparkling in dark.
