Trapped On Wood Island!!
By: Ashley Wolf

Kayla, Sabella, and I were wandering around the house on Wood Island. We lost track of time. The next thing we knew we heard the sound of a motor, but faintly. Sabella ran to the window and saw the last and only boat back to shore leaving, full with people wearing life vests. “Oh no!”, yelled Sabella.

“What?”, asked Kayla and I at the same time. We both ran to the window to see what the problem was. “Great.....We’re stuck on Wood Island.....For who knows how long.....!”,I exclaimed with a sigh.

All three of us went back upstairs, and tried our best to come up with a plan . We couldn’t come up with anything! All of a sudden, we remembered that we had special powers! Sabella and Kayla were both Ninjas with special techniques, and I was a Neko(Cat person). But I had more powers than both Sabella and Kayla thought I had. It was getting dark out. We all were sitting on the floor I got up. “We will be needing supplies to spend the night.” I put my hands on my buns(my hair style, was in buns(at the moment)) and took the ponytails off, that were holding them in place. I shook my head, causing my hair to wave around, and not to mention reveal that I had cat ears! “Are those real?!?!”, Sabella asked as she got up and took a step towards me, looking at her cat ears in awe. I then reached into what seemed my pocket, and then something began to swing back and forth behind me! Kayla looked at me,” Is that a tail?”

Sabella came closer to me, reached up and played with my ears. I moved my ears back, and my tail began to twitch with annoyance. Sabella stopped after she saw that happening, and took a step back. I put my hands up and pointed to three spots on the floor. A moment after I finished pointing at the spots, bags appeared in the exacts spots! “Woah.....”, said Sabella and Kayla in awe and sync. Each bag had a letter on it, one had a “S” on it, the other two had a “K” lastly an “A”. I gave Sabella the one with the “S” on it, and gave Kayla the one with the “K” on it. I nodded at them, and they started to open the bags.

Each bag had a pillow, a blanket, a flashlight(that had working batteries in it), and a special stuffed animal. Kayla’s stuffed animal looked like one of her cats, Sabella’s stuffed animal looked like her cat, and mine also looking like my cat! Kayla and Sabella both heard something metal-like jingle in their bags, they both looked into their bags, and each of them pulled out throwing stars! “Where’s your weapon Ashley?”, Sabella asked as she shook my bag upside down, hoping something would fall out. I put my hand behind my back. There was a glow, but then it disappeared . I pulled my hand out from behind my back.” It’s right here.” Sabella looked up, and saw a huge Katana in my hands. “Wow...”, was all Sabella could manage to say. I kept all of my senses open for the slightest sound that wasn’t heirs. I put my Katana away, since it was only a thought away.

We set up our beds, and then I heard a noise. My Katana appeared in my hand. The other two saw it, and took their throwing stars out. “Stay here, and be on guard.”, I said as I got up, and went downstairs as quiet as a mouse. When I was downstairs, I heard more noise. I ran into the room where the intruder was, and out it in a hold, where my Katana was at the intruder’s neck! “Wait”, yelled the intruder. The voice sounded very familiar to me, then I sniffed the air. I knew that smell, I knew it very well. The scent was of my Werewolf pack, mixed with some cologne, and salt water. I let the intruder go, got my flashlight, and shined it on the intruder. The intruder was my loving Werewolf brother(by adoption, I was adopted(and no, not really, my mom gave birth to me) My Neko character was the one who was adopted.) Baradox! “Sorry!”, I said, as my Katana vanished, I ran and hugged him. “Follow me“, I said, and we both went upstairs, and into the room where Kayla and Sabella were. “Baradox, this is Kayla and this is Sabella “Kayla and Sabella, this is my brother Baradox.” “What is he??”, asked Kayla. “ Oh.. So you can tell I’m not normal....”, said Baradox. “Yea, your tail is wagging.”, said Sabella. “Oh.. yea... it is....”, said Baradox blushing sheepishly. I had another bag appear for Baradox. He set up his bed on the other side of the room. We all sat on the floor Baradox was smelling the air, like I had done earlier. He got up, his claws were out, and his teeth were baring! “Stay here”, he said. He ran gown stairs, and the next thing we knew, we heard yelling. “Let go of me!”, yelled a voice that was also familiar to me. I looked at Sabella and Kayla, ”Stay here.” “Yea we know, we know.....”, Sabella and Kayla said, now getting on guard. I went downstairs, with my Katana in hand again. I shined my flashlight in the direction I heard the noise come from.

“Oh... My.... Goodness......”, I exclaimed. I saw Baradox and the person he was holding. “Let go of him, now!”, I yelled. Baradox was holding my boyfriend, Zack.(Zack is a Vampire, with blonde hair & blue eyes) Baradox automatically let go. Zack fell to the floor in shock and exhaustion! I ran to him, and helped him up. I pointed to the wall, and an elevator appeared. Baradox pushed the button, and the elevator dinged. We walked into the elevator, the elevator stopped upstairs, where Sabella and Kayla were. The doors of the elevator opened, and Baradox stepped out, I followed behind helping Zack stay up. I brought Zack to where my bed was set up, and laid him down. Zack fell asleep right after I laid him down. I sat next to Zack, while he was sleeping, hoping he’d wake up soon so I knew he was okay. About three hours later Zack woke up and saw me sitting next to him asleep. He looked around the room, and saw that everyone else was asleep. He got up, saw an extra blanket, and wrapped me up in it so I wouldn’t shiver anymore in my sleep. As soon as he was done wrapping me in the blanket, I stopped shivering. He laid down, and went back to bed.

The next thing I knew I heard voices, and my eyes were closed. I opened my eyes and saw Kayla, Sabella, Baradox, and Zack watching me sleep. “About time you woke up!”, said Kayla. I felt the blanket wrapped around me. I looked to Kayla, Sabella, then Baradox, none of them showed any sign of wrapping me up into the blanket. Then I looked at Zack; he smiled. I smiled back, and I could tell I was blushing, since my face was warm. I unwrapped the blanket, and got up. Kayla, Sabella and Baradox all got up, and started down the stairs and out the door. “Wait! Where are you guys going?”, I asked just before they went out the door.
“Outside! We’re going to go and walk around.”, said Baradox, with much happiness in his voice. Zack looked at me.” Follow me!”, he said with a huge smile on his face. He grabbed my hand, and I followed him to where ever he was taking me.

We stopped at an edge that had a beautiful view! “Oh... Zack... This is beautiful...”, I said, as I smile and hug him! Zack walks over to a spot that had a blanket on the ground.
“Want to come and sit with me?, asked Zack. I smiled again, “Sure.”, I said. I went and sat down next to him. We both scooted closer to one another. He held my hand that was laying on the blanket. We both looked at each other, and stared into each others eyes for a moment too long. “You can put your head on my shoulder, if you want to.”, he said. I gazed into his blue eyes, and got lost for a long moment, the I put my head on his shoulder.

The next thing we knew, we saw bright flashes both behind and in front of us. “What was that light?!?”, I asked in shock. Sabella, Kayla, and Baradox all say, ”Aww....Look at the cute little love birds.....”, in an annoying way. I blushed a shade of deep red. Zack and I got lost in each others eyes again. After we both laid down on the blanket and just looked at the sky. Then Kayla, Sabella and Baradox just sat down near where Zack and I were laying down on the blanket. I pointed to a spot on the ground(while laying down) and a basket appeared there. “Anyone want some lunch?”, I asked with enthusiasm. Everyone looked at me and smiled. “I’ll take those smiles as a yes.”, I claimed. Everyone nodded their heads. I opened the basket, and what ever they wanted to eat. Appeared in the basket. “Hey guys, just think what you want for lunch. One at a time please!”, I said. Baradox went first, then Sabella, then Kayla. After those three was Zack, he had a sandwich.

I went after everyone. I wasn’t that hungry, so I just thought of a drink I wanted. Two containers appeared in front of me. “What is in those??”, asked Zack. Then two cups appeared in front of me. “Are you sure you want to know?”, I asked him. “Yea”, he said back. I went even closer to him, “One has milk in it, and the other has Werewolf blood in it.”, I whispered into his ear. Zack looked at Baradox. Baradox just smiled, since he knew what I just said(since he has extremely good hearing!) I poured some milk into a cup, and then some blood. I mixed it. “You’re not REALLY going to drink that, are you?!?”, asked Zack, in shock. “Yes, I am.”, I nodded, and put the cup up to my lips, and drank some of it. I saw Zack make a grossed out face. Baradox smiled again at Zack‘s expression!(while trying to hold in laughter) “Want to try some?”, I asked, teasingly. “Umm......”, he said. “It tastes good, and I think you might like it, being a Vampire and all.”, I said pursuadingly. “Sure, I’ll try it.”, he claimed. I poured him some Blood Milk, and he took a sip of it. He spit it back out! “I take it, you don’t like it.”, I said, then giggled. He nodded his head, and gave me back the cup of Blood Milk. The next thing we knew, we heard howling, faintly. “What was ?!”, said Sabella. “That?!”, said Kayla, finishing Sabella’s sentence for her. Baradox and I smiled and Zack looked at me. “What is it that’s howling?”, he asked with a worried look in his eyes. I looked back at him, “I’ll just put it this way, family.”, I said with a smile. Zack still looked worried, in fact even more worried! Baradox and I stood up, we started howling. Sabella and Kayla looked at each other in shock at what we were doing. Then a pack of Werewolves were visible. They stopped in their tracks when they saw Zack! My dad(Daracast, the pack leader!) went up to Zack, and sniffed him, he could tell right away he was a Vampire. “Dad, I know what you’re thinking, but he’s fine, just ask Baradox.”, I said looking at my dad. He looked at Baradox, Baradox nodded his head. “Yeah dad, he’s a good guy. He even woke up in the middle of the night, and wrapped Ashley up in a blanket, so she wouldn‘t be cold.”, said Baradox. My dad looked from Baradox to Zack. “Is that true?”, he asked Zack. Zack squeezed my hand a little tighter. “Yes...It is...Sir..”, Zack said a little worried at what my dad might do.

“Well, then... From what I hear, I believe you guys then. And from what I see...” He looks at Zack and my hands, clasped together. “I’ll leave you two be.”, he reassured us. “Now, let’s get off this island!”, yelled Matallia(my sister, that is also a Werewolf!) “How are we supposed to get back to Biddeford Pool?”, asked Kayla. “You guys can ride on our backs. That’s why I brought more of the just pack here.”, said Daracast. “You, Vampire, ride on my back.”, said Daracast. “His name is Zack, dad.”, I confirmed to my dad. The rest of us got on a Werewolves’ back, and we started off to Biddeford Pool! We arrived at Biddeford Pool, about an hour or two later. We all said thanks to the Werewolves. And they set off. Well, at least all but Baradox. “We’re finally off of Wood Island!!”, said Sabella, while doing the happy dance. Cars appeared, they were Sabella & Kayla’s parents. “Cya.”, both Sabella and Kayla said. “See you guys later.”, I said back. “Cya.”, Zack said to them. They both left with their parents. “I’ll go and take a walk.”, said Baradox.

“That was fun, while it lasted, huh?”, I asked Zack as Baradox disappeared. “Yeah, it was.”, he replied. “Well...... I..” “Want me to take you home?”, Zack said interrupting me, in mid sentence. “Sure!”, I said. We were hand in hand again. “Hold on.”, he said. “Okay”, I said. He had me wrapped my hands around his neck. “I want you to do that, just for few minutes, until you get used to flying.”, he informed me. “ Okay”, I replied. A few minutes later, I unwrapped my arms from his neck, and we both grabbed each others hand. “My house if just down there”, I told him. “Where?”, he asked me. I pointed at where my house was supposed to be, but then I remembered the barrier I had put on it.(the barrier prevents unwanted people to see and go into my house!) Then, Zack could see it.

“Oh.. now I see it.”, he said. We landed right at the front door. “Well.. I guess this is goodnight”, I said. “Yeah... I guess it is... Goodnight. ”, he said. “Goodnight”, I said back. He kissed me, then disappeared. My ears and tail we twitching with the jolt of energy I had gotten from him kissing me! I blushed, Baradox came up. “Just making sure you made it home safely.” he confirmed. “Okay, well.. goodnight .”, I said. “Goodnight.”, he said back. He left, to go to where the rest of the pack was. I went right upstairs. “Do I have to go to school tomorrow?!?!”, I asked myself out loud. Then I fell right asleep, without saying another word.
