Prophecies

- Carlene -
I looked down, I wasn’t sure what to do with the information she had just given me. “Come on, lets have a look at your leg.” I got up and walked over to her left leg, pulling the jeans up to examine the damage. “This is really bad. Wait here.” I was gone befor she could answer.

I got back with a first aid kit and sat next to her. “Do you believe in prophecies?” I asked not making eye contact, instead I kept my eyes intently on the wound I was cleaning.

“Not really.” She answered truthfully, I still wouldn’t meet her eyes, nervousness was getting the best of me.

“Well my pack does.” I began, by now I was wrapping up her injured leg, I had to look up. “It is said that a female will lead the pack, she will be the fastest, strongest, and the smallest. This prophecy has haunted me all my life, my parents always planning for their daughter to lead.” I stopped to think for a second, anger flashing in my eyes.

“And?” Renita asked, her eyes eager to hear the rest of the story.
