TLLC 3.1

    He tried to tell me that we were the people's only hope for survival, and that we were legendary to them as far as safety went. I couldn't keep myself calmed down, and I punched the wall again, creating an even bigger hole. I heard Alex's voice outside the door, and she was questioning what was going on inside. Growling, I stood up and quivered violently before him.



    "Do you not think that I have wanted to crush them as well?" I asked through gritted teeth. "Do you think that I liked what they did to me and my mother? Do you ever consider there's memories I don't remember either?" I was fuming now, and the fur was waving as it spread over my tight body. The change was coming over me, and each muscle bubbled with adrenaline.



    Taking a step towards him, I stopped midway and doubled over. It was happening too quickly, and my bones snapped rather loudly. This was strange, almost too terrifying to me. What had they done? Growling louder and more frequently, I grew to a rather large state, near filling the room completely. I snarled and snapped, and I had found my target. Contact.



    I felt his arm in my teeth, his blood tasting rather hot in my mouth, and he was yelping with immense pain. I wanted him dead, but I knew not why. This was all the more terrifying. Alex was screaming outside, not being able to see what was going on. The villagers busted through the hole in the wall and saw me with blood on my lips. I growled a warning to them, and then leapt over the small crowd, running far into the forest to release my anger on something that wouldn't be too terribly afflicted.



    That shouldn't have happened. I felt horrible. Why did I do that? What caused it? I didn't think they would forgive me for that. I finally stopped by a large rock with a waterfall, and I went under it to lose my scent. Coming up into a cave very well hidden from the world, I sat there and let myself dry. They hated me. He hated me. She saw nothing but the carnage I left behind. What had I become? What would the wise-woman say about this? Was I possessed by a demon now? Their eyes were so greedy. They wanted power.



    Then again, the others' eyes were so inquisitive, and questioning. Hungry, almost, for an answer. I lay there on the cold rock and stared at the wall of the cave. This was home for now. One question remained. Do I really have a home?
