Werewolf


Ryker's eyes gleamed with a furious intensity as he took a step closer. 
"I've been searching for you, Elsa." he growled, his voice low and menacing.
Elsa's heart raced as she felt a surge of fear. "Who are you?" she demanded, trying to keep her voice steady.
Ryker's gaze never left hers. "Someone who's been sent to collect you." he replied, his eyes glinting with a sinister intent.
Jack stepped forward, his eyes flashing with anger. "You're not taking her anywhere." he snarled, his fists clenched.
Ryker's smile was cold and calculating. 
"Oh, but I am." he said, his voice dripping with confidence. "You see, Elsa is special. And she's needed elsewhere as quickly as possible."
Elsa's mind raced as she tried to understand what was happening. 
"What do you want from me?" she asked, trying to keep her voice from shaking.
Ryker's eyes seemed to burn with an inner fire. "You'll find out soon 


AT THE HIGHEST TOWER OF ALASKA.
In the dead of the night, the moon cast it's silvery glow on top of a tall masculine figure who perched on a pole. 
From that position, he could observe everything that happened in the city.
The figure was Ryker. His eyes darted from one location to the next,desperate to find Elsa.
"That bitch!"He bit his lower lip angrily. His eye had healed but there were still remnants of dried blood under his eyelids.
"And who the fuck was that child. I swear, when I find either of them, I'm going to drive my very claws into their ribcages!"
He stood to his full height and turned at the moon. He spread out his two arms, and took a large sniff.
He got it. There was a scent and it was an awful lot like Elsa.
It was her.
Grinning to himself, he leaped off the pole and landed on the ground with a thud!
Bending himself so that his upper body was perfectly horizontal agains


As they strolled along the street, Jack pointed out a quaint shop ahead. 
"Hey, let's grab a drink there. I've heard great things about their hot chocolate."
"Sounds like the perfect way to warm up on a cool evening like this." Elsa said with a smile.
Inside the shop, they ordered their drinks and continued their conversation.
"I love your sense of adventure Elsa," Jack said, his eyes sparkling with admiration. "You seem to embrace life with such enthusiasm."
"Well, thanks. You're not so bad yourself," Elsa replied with a playful grin. "I love how passionate you are about your work."
As they left the shop, drinks in hand, Jack asked, "So, Elsa, tell me about your family. Do you have any siblings?"
Elsa's expression turned slightly guarded. "I live with my mum and dad.it's just the three of us."
Jack sensed a hint of hesitation. "And your family is... close-knit?"
Elsa's voice dropped to a whisper. "Its  complicated."
Jack picked up on the cue and decided to shift the conversation. "Hey, I'm sure we can dive into that another time. So, what's your favorite travel destination so far?"
Elsa's face brightened, grateful for the change in topic. "Oh, that's an easy one. Japan! I fell in love with the culture, food, and scenery."
Jack's eyes lit up. "That's amazing! I've always wanted to visit Japan. What was your favorite experience there?"
Elsa's eyes sparkled. " I'm obsessed with the culture, the food, the anime and everything. I've always wanted to get myself in it all."
Jack chuckled. "You're a true otaku, aren't you?"
Elsa laughed. "Guilty as charged.I love how vibrant and unique the culture is. From the bustling streets of Tokyo to the serene gardens and temples, it's like a dream world."
"Well, that sounds incredible." Jack said, his interest piqued. "What's your favorite anime or manga series?"
Elsa's face lit up. "Ah, that's a tough one but if I had to choose, it's a tie between 'Attack on Titan' and 'Fullmetal Alchemist'."
Jack grinned. "Nice choice.I've seen both, but I need to catch up on the latest seasons."
As they continued their stroll, Elsa enthusiastically shared her love for Japanese cuisine, from sushi to ramen, and her dreams of attending an anime convention in Tokyo.
As they strolled through the park, Jack suggested, "Let's head to the quieter side. It's really beautiful over there."
Elsa nodded, and they walked hand in hand, the sun casting dappled shadows on the path. The sounds of children playing and birds chirping grew fainter, replaced by the rustling of leaves and the soft hum of insects.
"I love it here," Elsa said, her voice barely above a whisper. "It feels like our own little world."
Jack smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "I know exactly what you mean. It's like we're in our own bubble."
"Exactly!" Elsa exclaimed. "I feel like I can be myself here, without worrying about what others think."
"That's the best feeling, isn't it?" Jack said, his voice filled with understanding. "Being able to just be, without judgment."
Elsa nodded, her eyes shining with appreciation. "You get it, Jack. You really do."
As they turned a corner, the path narrowed, and the trees grew closer together. Jack and Elsa found themselves alone, surrounded by the peacefulness of nature.
"What's your favorite thing about this park?" Jack asked, his curiosity piqued.
"Hmm, that's a tough one," Elsa replied, her brow furrowed in thought. "I think it's the way the light filters through the trees. It's like nature's own little light show."
"Wow, that's beautiful," Jack said, his eyes sparkling with delight. "I never thought of it that way."
As they continued walking, the silence between them grew comfortable, like an old friend.
"Jack, can I ask you something?" Elsa said, her voice barely above a whisper.
"Of course, what is it?" Jack replied, his eyes locked onto hers.
"Well, what's the most spontaneous thing you've ever done?" Elsa asked, her eyes sparkling with mischief.
Jack chuckled, a sly grin spreading across his face. "Oh, that's a great question. I once booked a last-minute ticket to Europe and spent a month backpacking through the countryside."
Elsa's eyes widened in awe. "That sounds incredible! I'm so jealous."
Jack's eyes lit up with excitement. "That was an amazing experience! I learned so much about myself and the world."
Elsa listened intently, her eyes shining with enthusiasm. "I can imagine. I've always wanted to travel, but...well, it's complicated."
Jack's expression turned sympathetic. "What do you mean?"
Elsa hesitated, her voice dropping to a whisper. "My family...we have issues. They're really protective of me, and I haven't been allowed to go out much."
Jack's eyes widened in understanding. "I'm so sorry, Elsa. That must be really tough for you."
Elsa nodded, her eyes welling up with tears. "It is. But I'm trying to break free, slowly. That's why I'm here, with you, right now."
Jack's face softened, and he reached out to take her hand. "I'm glad you're here, Elsa. You deserve to experience life, and I'm happy to be a part of it."
Elsa's heart swelled with gratitude. "Thanks Jack. Just talking to you makes me feel like I'm living again."
As they stood there, hands entwined, the park around them grew quiet, as if the world had melted away. The only sound was the soft rustling of leaves and the beating of their own hearts.
The air was charged with a sweet tension, a sense of possibility. Elsa's eyes locked onto Jack's, and she felt her heart skip a beat. 
She couldn't look away.
She didn't want to.
Jack's gaze was intense, his eyes burning with a gentle passion. He took a step closer, his face inches from hers. Elsa's breath caught in her throat.
The world around them melted away, leaving only the two of them, suspended in this moment. It was as if time itself had stopped.
And then, without a word, Jack leaned in, his lips brushing against Elsa's. It was a soft, gentle kiss, but it sent shivers down her spine.
Elsa's heart soared, her soul taking flight. She felt alive, truly alive, for the first time in her life.
As they pulled back, gasping for air, Elsa's eyes sparkled with delight. "Wow," she whispered.
Jack smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "Wow indeed." he replied, his voice barely above a whisper.
As they stood there, lost in the magic of their first kiss, the world around them seemed to melt away. But, suddenly, the spell was broken.
A strange figure emerged from the shadows, its presence like a cold wind on a summer day. Elsa's heart skipped a beat as she felt a shiver run down her spine.
The figure was tall, its features obscured by a hood. But its eyes glowed with an eerie orange light, like embers from a fire. Jack's eyes narrowed, his grip on Elsa's hand tightening.
"Who are you?" Jack demanded, his voice firm but laced with a hint of fear.
The figure didn't respond, its eyes fixed on Elsa with an unblinking gaze. Elsa felt like a rabbit caught in headlights, frozen in terror.
The air grew thick with tension, the silence oppressive. Jack's eyes never left the figure, his body tensed like a coiled spring.
Elsa's heart raced, her mind racing with questions. 
Who was this stranger? 
What did he want?

Ryker's eyes gleamed with a furious intensity as he took a step closer. 
"I've been searching for you, Elsa." he growled, his voice low and menacing.
Elsa's heart raced as she felt a surge of fear. "Who are you?" she demanded, trying to keep her voice steady.
