　　 Moments after the others started their attack, watching CJ and Elias take down moose that were next to each other, I heard something cras.h.i.+ng toward us. Something large.

　　 There was a bear. I could smell it. It was the same kind that I had hunted before. He must have been following the herd, and now he was going crazy with the scent of the blood in the air. I didn’t think that we had much to worry about. He wouldn’t be a match for any of us.

　　 At least, that was what I thought at first. However, that was when Rowan, who was arguably the smallest of our group, had gotten momentarily distracted. The next thing that I knew, as I watched the scene unfolding before me, Rowan’s left leg fell into a hole that was hidden by the underbrush. It wasn’t a trap that was pre-set or anything, just a case of bad luck. Still, I heard him yelp, and so did the others. They froze for a second as they looked at Rowan, the bear completely forgotten by them all.

　　 I watched on in momentary horror as Rowan yowled in pain. I knew that he would heal soon, but it was still hard to watch, and the sound of his leg snapping like that, it was enough to make me cringe.

　　 “Rowan?” I said in what pa.s.sed for words in wolf form. Just as the word was past my lips, the bear crashed through the trees and towered over Rowan.

　　 There was a moment of fear from the others. They probably would have acted soon enough, but they weren’t as quick on the uptake as I was. I was already leaping into motion and lunging toward the beast. I needed to meet his attack midair, or Rowan’s injury would be a little worse than it had already been.

　　 .....

　　 I felt power, conviction, and strength coursing through me as I flew through the air. I propelled myself toward the bear, determined to protect my friend, and that was probably what caused the change that happened next. All I knew was that I hadn’t planned on this happening.

　　 One second, I was jumping at the bear, and the next I was standing on two legs and holding the thing off while roaring into its face. I felt bigger and stronger, easily overpowering the monstrous bear. And the next thing that I knew, I felt my claw sinking deeply into the bear’s neck and shoulders. His roaring cut off almost instantly as the blood poured from the wound.

　　 Dead, the bear dropped to the forest floor. And that was when I turned, still on two legs, to face the others. The looks on their faces was what told me that something had happened. They didn’t even have to say a word. I looked down at my hand, because they were hands now, not paws. Well, sort of. They were hand shaped paws I guess, but there were fingers for sure.

　　 I was a Lycan. Just like my dad, I was standing there in the true werewolf form that was so rare and almost unheard of for our people. At least it was now. In the past, somewhere in the ancient histories of our people, there had been a lot of Lycans. Now, I was only the second one that I knew of.

　　 “Wow.” That was all that I could say as I looked at the lethal claws tipping my fingers. “This is f.u.c.king cool.”

　　 “Reagan?” Elias was looking at me with awe in his eyes. “Y..y..y..you’re a Lycan.”

　　 “Yeah, I noticed.” I laughed and it was a deep rumbling sound. “I thought that my dad was the only one, but I guess I inherited it.”

　　 “Yeah, I guess you did.” He laughed in response.

　　 “I..I think that I need to head back for now. We have food in the cabin, right?” I looked at them. “We can hunt tomorrow. I think that I need time to process this. And I don’t want to be out here like this if the humans show up.”
