The 다음 일 nearly everyone at school was asking me what happened. Does anything in this town stay a secret? I went to all my classes and 의해 the end of the day, I just wanted to be left alone. I walked to my jeep in the parking lot, my mom had driven me to the hospital in the 다음 town to get it back. I told her that my friend drove me 집 and I had forgotten it there. I got in and was about to start it up, when a piece of paper floated into my gaze. I grabbed it and flipped it over. It was the address to Dylan's studio. I sighed remembering that I was suppose to talk with him. I started the jeep and started driving to East Wood.
When I got there, I found the studio. It was a two story building with large glass windows on the first floor. Looking through the windows, 당신 could see a wide variety of instruments such as guitars, drums, pianos, violins and trombones. I walked in and was amazed 의해 the size of the store. I found Dylan at the back polishing a trumpet. “Julie, 당신 made it.”
“Ya, so what did 당신 want to talk about?”
“Follow me upstairs. It will be 더 많이 comfortable.” I followed him to his apartment upstairs.
“Please have a seat.” He gestured at a leather 침상, 소파 in the large living room. I sat down while he went to get drinks. Looking around the room, I noticed a lot of expensive looking paintings and vases. Dylan came in with two glasses of fancy water. “Now, down to business.” He said, sitting across from me in an armchair. “Julie, have 당신 always lived in your house beside the forest?” It seemed like an easy enough question.
“Yes.”
“Have 당신 ever seen anything, strange in those woods?” Ok, strange question.
“No, not really.” I couldn't tell him that there were shape-shifters in there.
“I see.” He looked 로스트 in thought. “Do 당신 know anyone named Rowan?” I shook my head no. “What about Heidi? 또는 Thaddeus?” The answer must have been clear on my face. “Oh, so 당신 have meet them. Which ones?”
“I...I don't know what you're talking about.” I lied.
“Oh, come now Julie. I know you've met some of the pack.”
“How do 당신 know about them?” I was scared to know the answer.
“I know them because I created most of them.” I nearly fell off the couch.
“You what?!”
“Don't look so surprised. Yes, I created them. I took the DNA of a 늑대 and mixed it with the DNA of a few, volunteers.” I gasped. He was smiling at me in a weird way. “I'll be right back. Don't go anywhere.” He got up and when down the hall and into another room. I waited until he was gone before I pulled out my phone. I dialed Brett's number. There was no answer. I left a message, “Text me as soon as possible. It's an emergency.” I put my phone away just as Dylan came out of the other room. He was carrying some files. “These are the records of the experiments.” He handed them to me. Flipping through, I saw a few names I recognized such as Thaddeus, Emmaline, Altar, Piper, Dalla and Brett. The clock on the 벽 chimed. “Well, would 당신 look at the time. I really must let 당신 go, I have other business to attend to.” He opened the door and let me out. I was calm until I got outside, running to my jeep I slammed the door shut and put th metal to the pedal. Racing through town, I was amazed the police hadn't come after me. I got to a heavily wooded area before I stopped. I stopped the jeep and took the files out of my bag. I had taken them when Dylan wasn't looking. How could someone who seemed so nice be so horrible? I read through the files,
October 7, 1983
Volunteer is currently unconscious. 늑대 DNA has attacked his 심장 and brain. If this works, he should be half 늑대 and half human.
October 18, 1983
Experiment failed. Volunteer has passed on. Blood killed his brain and stopped his heart.
I gasped. How could he do this to an innocent person! I read on,
February 23, 1984
Volunteer has stayed conscious but is in terrible pain. Blood has reached heart.
March 3, 1984
Volunteer has been unconscious. Breathing but is very pale.
Most of the files were like this. Each had a few entries. One was different then the others though,
November 13, 1721
Volunteer has been given blood. Nearly died.
November 25, 1721
Volunteer opened eyes, yellow. Craves human flesh. Have to put down.
This file was from almost 300 년 ago, and there was blood on the bottom of it.

Tell me darling why 당신 cry,
Your tears stain the 침대 당신 lay upon
Could it be 당신 miss the ones 당신 clung to so tight,
Nothing but a scared little fawn
The flames burnt away your past and future,
The hate did nothing but balance your grief
What now? That’s presents question,
Something so fragile like a branch being clung to 의해 a leaf
Where is your mother little dove?
What happened to those loving others who filled your empty nest?
How many word of the world can 당신 rhyme with love?
Perhaps someday we will know with, proper care and rest
When pursuing dreams take chances and strive for nothing less than best
Then only then can 당신 be sure you’ve completed life’s most demanding quest
Your tears stain the 침대 당신 lay upon
Could it be 당신 miss the ones 당신 clung to so tight,
Nothing but a scared little fawn
The flames burnt away your past and future,
The hate did nothing but balance your grief
What now? That’s presents question,
Something so fragile like a branch being clung to 의해 a leaf
Where is your mother little dove?
What happened to those loving others who filled your empty nest?
How many word of the world can 당신 rhyme with love?
Perhaps someday we will know with, proper care and rest
When pursuing dreams take chances and strive for nothing less than best
Then only then can 당신 be sure you’ve completed life’s most demanding quest
Soar, soar
Soar beyond your wildest dreams.....
There's no limit
On how much 당신 can soar
No one can
Break your wings and kill you
Soar for the skies,
Don't let the feelin go
Just soar, soar like never before
No one's gonna stop you
From believin
There wasn't a time
When nobody could never soar
But there was a time
When people never believed
And tomorrow
Isn't the 일 to fall
And nobody's gonna push 당신 down
Oh almighty eagle
We're gonna be the powerful eagles
We're not gonna let anyone
Be our ruler,
We're not anyone's slave
Almighty eagle
Oh soar, soar towards the sky's height
And soar toward your dream
Let nothing keep 당신 away
Almighty eagle
Soar beyond your wildest dreams
And we're gonna fly tonight
Let nobody keep us down.
Life can be hard. Especially for me, Lily West, your almost-average 16-year-old girl. Most people think it's weird I'm bald. Others think I'm going to die. Then there's the occasional person who tries to take pity upon me. I'd rather they not, because some say it like I'm a helpless little 터틀, 거북 on its back. Sometimes I wish I die already, and sometimes I wish that I was a completely different person. Yes, it's tough having cancer. I just wish that they would respect me for a person instead of a helpless little bug.
I stood 의해 you,
Ever so proudly,
In the darkness of war,
Never betraying you,
Always 의해 your side.
I protected you,
Never let 당신 down when
Things got rough,

Be my loyal friend,
Never falter when the Fuhrer
Shoots his nasty gaze down at you.
Be strong,
My faithful friend.

And protect me from the evils
Of the world.
Be strong,
Never falter,
And always have courage.
Go now, my faithful friend.
Run free.
