《Running with the wolves (Supernatural x Wolfblood) BOOK 1》Chapter 22
Advertisement
The impala started stopping. "The hell?" Dean mumbled.
My eyes widened, when I recognized a smell. Rotten eggs. I know what it is.
"Guys!" I tried to control my panic. "A demon!" I pointed at the blonde standing on the road.
We stepped out of the car as Dean held the Colt tight.
"Ruby?" Sam questioned.
"Sam, listen me." Ruby started. "There is no time."
"Why?" Sam frowned in confusion. "What are you talking about?"
"You need to get outta town." Ruby said.
"So this is Ruby, huh?" Dean asked slightly angry as he raised the Colt. "I never had the pleasure."
"Dean?" Sam exclaimed.
"I was hoping you would show up again." Dean said in an almost cheerful voice.
"Point that thing somewhere else." She demanded.
"Haha, right." Dean faked laughed as he still held the gun up.
"Sam, please, go." She looked to Sam. "Get in the car and don't look back."
"Why? I don't understand." Sam questioned.
"Hey, hot stuff." Dean yelled. "I think we can handle a few kitchen witches."
"I am not talking about witches, jackass." She yelled. "Witches are whores. I am talking about, who they serve."
"Demons." Sam said as he realized something. "They get their power from demons."
"Yeah and there is one here. Now." She reasoned.
"Okay, who are you exactly, and why should we trust you?" I asked sternly, demanding an answer. "You're a demon."
"Ruby, nice to meet you." She answered as she looked straight at me. "I can see you got another companion. Let me guess." She walked over to me, and I held up my knife. My fingertips were itching to summon my claws. I had to use all my control not to fly straight at her. "Dean's?"
"Why does everyone keep thinking I'm your daughter?" I sighed and looked annoyed at Dean, who just shrugged.
"Ruby." Sam intruded. "Her name is Leona. We are helping her."
"Uh babysitters, are we now?" She asked sarcastic voice. "Just great."

That was it. I lost my temper and flew straight at her, pinned her to the ground. Growling like a wild animal with my claws out, eyes shining like fireflies and veins as black as the night sky, I managed to claw her on the arm.
"Leona!" Dean reluctantly pulled me off of her, while Sam helped her up.
I kept struggling in Dean's grasp and growling like a wild animal. The full moon was definitely getting to me.
"A Wolfblood?" She asked in amusement. "I haven't seen one of you guys in a while, and a wild one." I growled deeply at her. "I thought you wild ones didn't exist anymore."
"Wow, calm down." Dean hushed me as I tried to fly at her again. "I am taking you outside." He practically dragged me past Sam and Ruby, while I growled even more profusely. He dragged me to the field beside the road. "What has gotten into you? I don't exactly like her either, but you don't have to fly at her like that."
"You nearly shot her." I growled. "Let me through."
"Not until, you tell me, what the hell is going on?"
I took some deep breath to try and regain control. My claws retracted, but my eyes were still shining a bright yellow and my veins were still black.
"It's the full moon." I groaned. "I have a hard enough time keeping my temper, and then a demon comes and argh!" I violently kicked a log of woods, which flew a far distance.
"Hey, easy." Dean walked over to me and laid a hand on my shoulder. "Listen, we are gonna get through this, but I need you to stay in control. Can you do that for me?"
"Until the moon rises." I sighed. "After that I am transformed, and that makes it all the more difficult."
"I just need you to do that, okay?" He looked me straight in the eyes.
"Okay." I muttered as my eyes went back to normal along with my veins. "But what am I gonna do, when the moon rises?"

"What do you normally do?" He asked.
"Run." I simply answered. "I run wild in the forest."
"Okay, then do that." He said as if it was that simple.
"Dean, I don't know, if this is someone else's territory, or if there are hunters out here, normal hunters." I ranted.
"You just have to get through tonight, and if there is an another full moon with us, we will cross that bridge, when we get to it."
"Okay." I sighed. "There is a forest nearby. I can transform there, and be back when the sun rises."
"Good." Dean responded. "Now, are you ready to go back there?"
I nodded sternly. As we got back, I shot a look of disgust at Ruby, before saying; "I will wait in the car." I climbed into the backseat and put on some music to calm me. I didn't exactly need to listen to them yelling at each other.
Then I heard a gunshot, and Ruby had disappeared, leaving Sam holding Dean's arm up in the air.
The tension in the car had been thick, and not a word had been uttered, when we pulled up at the motel. We all wordlessly entered the room.
"The hell were you thinking?" Dean questioned angrily as Sam closed the door.
"What?" Sam exclaimed in shock "What the hell was I thinking?"
"She is a demon, Sam. Period alright?" Dean yelled. "They want us dead, we want them dead."
"Oh that's funny, I remember that demon chick in Ohio. Casey." Oh, crap here we go. "You didn't want her dead."
"Yeah, well she wasn't stringing me along like a fish on a hook." Dean argued.
"No one's stringing me along." Sam angrily stated. "Look, I know, it's dangerous, that she is dangerous. But like it or not, she is useful."
"No, we kill her, before she kills us." Dean stated.
"Kill her with what?" Sam asked his brother. "The gun, she fixed for us?" Wow, I am getting a lot of details, I didn't know.
"Whatever works." Dean said.
"Dean, if she wants us dead, all she has to do, is stop saving our lives." Sam argued making Dean sigh. "Look we have to start looking at the big picture, Dean. Start thinking of ways to win and moves ahead." They had taken their conflict to the kitchen now, when I heard Dean turn on the sink. "It's not so simple. We are not just hunting anymore. We are war."
"Are you feeling okay?" Dean asked like Sam was crazy.
"Argh, why are you always asking me that?" Sam sat down on the other bed.
"Because you are taking advice from demons, for starters." Dean pointed out. "And by the way, you seem less and less worried about offing people, you know, it used to eat you up inside?"
"Yeah, what has that gotten me?" Sam asked actually wanting an answer.
"Nothing, but that's just what you are supposed to do, okay?" Dean argued. "We are supposed to drive in the freaking car, and we can argue about this stuff? You know, you go on about sanctity of life, and all that kinda crap."
"What, so you are mad at me, because I am starting to agree with you?" Sam asked with a frown.
I could feel the moon drawing me in. I could feel my fangs and claws. "Guys?" No response.
"I am not mad, I'm..." Dean sat down. "I am worried, Sam. I am worried because you are not acting like yourself."
"Guys." I groaned.
"Yeah, you are right." Sam answered. "I'm not. I don't have a choice."
"Guys!" I yelled, not being able to hold back any longer. "Full moon." I transformed in the room.
"Wow, Leona, calm down." I growled at Dean, as I moved closer to him.
"Leona, here." Sam yelled as he had opened a door. I ran full speed out of that door and into the woods.

Sadistic Player In A Fantasy Game World
"Life is meaningless. If I can't have fun then what is the point of living?" these were probably the thoughts that constantly plagued Gray's mind. Now that the world has changed drastically overnight, and powers and magical beasts have suddenly appeared, what will Gray's world be like? Will he finally be able to make the world the playground he so desperately desired. "Enjoy that feeling of pain. After all, you're only human." laughed Gray as he watched his last classmate be devoured. *******This is a new project I'm working on. The MC is different from other MCs, he has a mental disorder. If you like goody-two-shoes MCs then please don't read. Also, character growth is something I am fond of, so if you dislike this please also don't read. There are some gruesome scenes, and some may trigger a few readers, if you are soft-hearted please skip this book. I do not own the art and if there are complaints it will be changed. Around 12chaps/week update.
8 313Millennial Mage (A Slice of Life, Progression Fantasy)
The world is wild, untamed. Humanity thrives, but only in isolated, well defended cities, ever shrinking as the wilds slowly reclaim all that was taken. The most capable magic users are raised up as Mages to serve mankind, further their cause, and defend them over the course of millennia. Tala is freshly graduated from the magic academy and determined to make her own way in the world. She hopes to pay off her massive debts, quickly, but still plans on living each and every day to the fullest. Too bad the Academy left some glaring holes in her practical education. Loath to let that slow her down, and with no patience for a standard, low-paid apprenticeship (intended to fill many of those knowledge gaps), Tala strives to learn and improve as rapidly as she can on her own. Her unorthodox methods for preserving her own life allow her to take greater risks in search of profit and advancement, much to the surprise of those around her. I do hope you enjoy this tale, but let me know what you think either way! Critique, both positive and negative, is welcome.

Hey, what would you do after you got isekai-ed? Me? Look! A cockroach villain has appeared. Let's kill him before he messes things up. Too cruel? That kind of character is always introduced to be killed by the protagonist anyway so I'm doing the world a favor here. Less CO2 emission. It's time to "Go Green" guys, even in another world. See over there, that's a trash young master type right there. What do I do? Endure the initial insults and provocation then dispose of him when no one sees of course. Why make things difficult? Hmm, a pretty girl in peril. Potential love interest there… but no, I have enough problems as it is. At the very least, I won't help her just 'cause she's a female. Same goes for males. What? I support gender equality. Hey, I know the clichés, what did you think I was going to do? Simply let it run its course? Well duh, I'll twist it to my benefit. ************************************************ -This is a power fantasy story. Weak to strong, strong to stronger. -The MC is very genre savvy and a hardcore internet citizen.-English is not my first language, apologies for the imperfections.

8 207Shadow Emperor
In a world of magic where those who can wield the elements reign supreme our hero Savani finds himself reborn with a strange Assistance chip. Watch as he climbs higher and higher in a world far different than the one he knew and develop strength enough to stand at the top. ** Warning this story has a very slow boil as the MC begins to grow in power from scratch. Starts picking up around chapter 25. As story progresses themes of slavery, human experimentation, and some sexual content will be added. ** This is a story inspired by novels like Warlock of a Magus World and Age of Adept. I will be taking some ideas from each but trying to make my own story using the world ideas i love from these novels. I am also a first time writer mainly doing this while trapped inside due to the events going on in the world. So feedback is appreciated.
