A tunnel?

- Renita-

I went down to the hollow tree I spotted from the mouth of the cave. The smell of other werewolves still lingered around the area, and I could smell Carlene’s sent, but faintly. Everything had her pack’s scent, but something didn’t seem right about all of it. True, I had only known Carlene for two days, but still I knew she wouldn’t ditch me without a reason.

Now I was finally facing the hollow tree. It looked like anyother tree in the forest, but something seemed different. A stuck my head in, then when there was nothing, walked the rest of the way. The inside was fairly large, just big enough for a werewolf. A racoon popped it’s head out through a curtain of vines, only to see me and scamper away. I went to where it came from, and to my surprise, found a tunnel.

It was tiny, and I could barely fit in, but as I went in further, the tunnel became more spacious and I could walk normal.

“What is it with me and going underground?” I asked myself, laughing. The entrance was ahead of me now.
