The summer that change everything

In this story, beside the plot, I try to show what hurdle's werewolves have to go through every day in order to survive. Contrary to some belief, you will see that it is a sometime fastidious and not an easy life. They have special needs and ability that is complicating every aspect from their life. For some, that in it self is a good part of the curse. On the other hand they have a much longer life span, better health, are much stronger physically, then the average human.

Chapter three

Dreaming in an awaken state

Slowly going up the stair leading up to his house front porch, Randal had a pensive look, caused by all the thought's going through his head. Finally sitting down at the top of the stair, he let a deep sigh escape resulting from all of the accumulated emotions. Looking up at the evening sky, he just stay there for a few minutes. It's beautiful, with deep hues of purple and dark blue, plus some lighter pink near the horizon. Only the brightest of stars were making it through the haze cause by the city light's pollution, and smack right in the middle of the cloudless sky, a big waxing gibbous moon that was only a few days to being full. Finally starting to relax, Randal began to feel the warm breeze that brought those wonderful lilacs smell's from the nearby trees. Taking the thermos out of his school bag, he stood there staring at the metal object. *Dammed, I feels like I'm taking part in a bad episode of that old black and white TV show that mom is watching all the time, "The twilight zone"... Yet, that thermos is the solid proof I did not dreamed any of this... To top it off, I feel like I'm no longer me with this wolf in my head, it's like someone else is taking over... And why am I now starting to have all these feeling for my friend... Why did I just kept looking at him in the van, and he just keep smiling back...*

After about half an hour Randal finally stood up putting the thermos back in his bag, and decided that it was time to have a chat with the wolf that was messing up his life. Entering the house, he saw his mother sitting in livingroom watching some TV.

"Hello dear, how was the day? I've heard that you did some extracurricular activities?" *O boy, I totally forgot to make up a story.* "Heu... Yea yea it was fine... You know the end of the school year, giving back the borrowed books and stuff. Then at the end of the gym class we were asked to help setting up the gym for the upcoming diploma ceremony." *Ouf that was close.* "Mom, if you don't mind, I really need to take a shower."

"Have you eaten yet?"

"Yea its ok tanks. I'll just take a shower and turn in for the night." *Lucky that the alpha did insist that I eat my fill with a lot of good red meat before we left... It was so good, I never ate so much in my life... I wonder if those safe houses of his all have the same kind of food in their supply.*

"Its braised Beef, your favourite with lots of meat!"

*Damn, why do I feel hungry all the sudden... I just ate my fill not even an hour ago... This damn canine is playing with me again... This stuff smell so good...*

"Mom, I think I'll take some after all."

"My guess is that you are in a growing phase, since you seem to be eating a lot lately, so I did made a huge pot just for you. Unfortunately, you are a bit late, would you mind helping yourself, I don't want to miss this show. The pot is in the oven."

"Ok mom" Randal said as he proceeded into the kitchen. The smell was alluring making him drool a lot all over himself. As he bend over to take the pot out of the oven, all the drool filament started to go down the length of his arms... *What the hell... Gross... That damn wolf again...* Randal took the nearest rag and started to remove the slimy stuff that he inadvertently did put all over the counter top, the floor, and onto himself. *Why O why me...* Randal thought in exasperation but the great smell brought him right back to the previous task at hand, even his full stomach was conspiring against him, starting to growled like if it was empty... The wolf just took over from that point on, and he ate more then half the content in no time flat. Coming back to his senses he could not believe that he still had space in there for another huge meal. *This werewolf thing will certainly take time to get used too* he though to himself.

"Mom it was great, I've just clean up the kitchen and I'm dead tired, so I'm going right to bed."

"I'm glad that you enjoyed it, good night and have sweet dreams."

"Good night." *If she only knew... What a crazy day...* He though while looking back on what he just did. On that, Randal left for his room and the needed shower. With all the food he had just gorge himself within the previous two hours, he was quite surprised that it did not show that much on his waist line as he looked at his naked self in the bathroom mirror. Although not feeling it at all, his weight had increased quite dramatically since the bite, the strange metallic sound coming from max out scale was definitively a hint to that effect. Luckily for him, it was one of those old needle scales that were overbuild like all the stuff from that era, so it did not buckle under his weight. The surprise was all his, as the needle went all the way around going way past the maximum weight of 300 lbs and pointing to 20 lbs. passes the zero mark... His weight was now in the neighbourhood of 350 lbs.! Of course, the staggering amount of food ingested in the past weeks was definitively stacking up, and accountings for that weight, and a lot more, even if it did not show on the scale. Still he could not believe it, looking down at the scale... The Alpha did warn him about that. So, from now on, he would have to be very careful where he treads his feets, and where he would sit or lay down, making sure the surface or furniture were solid enough to hold his great weight. It felt quite strange for Randal to be that heavy, and not feel it, but at the same time, it did make sense. Everything was happening exactly as predicted by the alpha. The increase weight in it self was a good thing, because it was needed as a counterweight to his increase strength, otherwise every time he would use his muscle, his body would be the mass moving instead of what he was trying to move. Simple physics, the alpha had said, while pointing to all the evolutionary subtle change the werewolf body had gone through across the millennium. That in it self did suggest that the lycan had been around for a very long time, probably even a lot longer then previously thought. Some lycan specialist had even suggested that they may have evolved in parallel alongside the humans species since the origin of both. Unfortunately, that was all the info the alpha gave to Randal about that subject, as it seems to be the extent of his knowledge on the mater...

Back in his room and sitting on his bed after the refreshing shower, Randal took out the thermos and remembered what the Alpha told him. *Son, when I look into you into your eyes, I see some discordance between you and your wolf, it is not a great deal, but could be trouble, I suggest that you settle this with him, otherwise you could end up having problems on your first moon. Problems that you really don't want to have. In order to achieve that, drink this tonight, before going to bed. It will help by putting you in a conscious state of sleep, kind of half way between being asleep and being awake. It will also force your wolf to be present as a separated entity so that you can have a chat with him. Also, because of that separation you will be your old self like you were before the wolf was awakened by the bite. I cannot tell you how it will go, as it's different with everybody, but remember that you're actually just talking with your wolf conscience which in the end is part of your new self. Just a warning about the potion, although it's not dangerous to werewolves, only take it before going to bed as it will knock you out. Also the taste is just terrible, and I've been told there is nothing that can be done about it, so don't be surprised by that.*

Sitting on his bed looking at the thermos in light of all the past weeks event, Randal came to the conclusion that he had nothing to lose. *Here goes nothing...* he told himself, and drank the entire pre-measure quantity that was in the bottle pulling a sour face. *Damn, he was not kidding when he said it tasted bad...* About a minute later and laying down, he felt weird as the effect of the potion started to kick in, and quickly fell asleep. After an undetermined amount of unconscious sleep, Randal was suddenly jolted out of his sleep by a free falling sensation, like someone had just threw him out of a plane. Opening his eyes there was nothing to see other than a black void in all direction, and that kept on going for several distressing and disorienting minutes. He was really free falling through the air, feeling and hearing the air resistance preventing him from falling any faster as he noisily cut through the medium like a knife. As he started to realize that he was about to meet his doom, eventually crashing somewhere, everything came to a stoped, leaving him stationary, floating in weightless without any sensation.

*It's official I've just died...* He thought. But, unknown to him, it was the effects of the elixir that were kicking in. After a while, a cold surface started to be felt as his spacial sense came back with the feeling of gravity. Then without warning, the dark void suddenly did vanish into a blinding light that felt like someone was shining a bright light in his eyes, awakening him up again?? Opening his eyes Randal sat up, and got quite disoriented by his surroundings. Looking around, he was basically staring at nothing but a bright white featureless space extending to infinity in every direction. Being nauseated a bit by the lost spacial reference, he sat there immobile for about a minute or so, until, out of nowhere, some feature started to materialize, as if on cue, someone was fading in from white.... His bedroom??? Now Randal was very confused and clueless about what had just happen and was starting to have this big throbbing headache. "No more drinking weird unknown concoction before going to bed." He said in a low voice confirming at the same time that he was awake. Then he froze at the sight of what look like an anthropomorphic nightmarish creature, there, merely six feet from him, sitting on his desk chair. A humanoid form mounted with what looks like a wolf head, looking at him with eyes that seem to be lightened by some kin of energy. Although the shape resembles that of a werewolf, only the eyes were clearly visible as the rest remained fuzzy, more like smoke constantly moving around in the shape of an anthro wolf.

"Hello!..." Randal said. Standing still, the creature did not give him any reaction other then the intense stare, looking like someone not too happy to be there, in this situation.

"Are you able to speak?..." Randal timidly asking. Again, no reaction. Randal was starting to really get uncomfortable because he was no longer receiving the confidence from his wolf. Even though he only received it for the past week or so, he was getting quite used to it, but now being separated from his wolf prove to be quit unnerving and unsettling.

"Yes" the wolf finally answered in a gruff voice after agonizing seconds of silence.

"So you are me..."

The wolf just turned his head looking at the floor in front of him, and finally decided to answer in a soft low annoyed voice almost talking to himself. "No I'm the tooth fairies..."

"Ok... That was a dumb question." Randal said.

Slowly, turning its head back toward Randal, the wolf thing gave him the annoyed stare. Randal had great difficulty being on the offensive, and was somewhat taken by surprise by the wolf passive aggressiveness. It definitively was slowly getting at him.

"Then, what the hell is the problem?" Randal finally asking in exasperation.

"You're indecisiveness and lack of trust."

"What??" Randal was shock by the short direct to the point answer. It seemed that the wolf had study him quite thoroughly in the past week or so, while Randal, the human part was having this really hard time just cooping and adjusting to this new reality. In the equation he just chose to ignored not even trying to understand or at least listen to his wolf, and just shun him out. He just simply assumed that his wolf was only a creature of action reaction, and never even consider once consulting or using the wolf judgement as part of his reflexion.

"You're always indecisive, afraid, when confronted to something new and imposing like me. For the past few days I've been pushing you even taking over in confrontation, and you've done nothing other then holding me back. How am I supposed to be working with you? Right now I feel like I'm working against you..."

Randal, the human, was now realising that his wolf was quite pissed off at him, and that he was causing the problem. Basically, since the bite, and the wakening of his wolf, Randal just choose to ignore him, not even, at the very least, try to show him his point of view. Of course, it's not like they are talking between them self in his head, and it's definitively not like what they are doing right now. Randal, the human did whish he could have these kinds of conversation in his head in his normal life, as it would make things a lot easier, but the method of conversation is more like a gut feeling that the wolf is giving off. Randal, the human just realised and understood that when he did act directly as a result or partly base on those feelings it was like giving the wolf control. He also realised that the wolf is always present, and is using those feeling as a method of communication kind off giving an answer back like a subconscious message in his mind. He also understood that he would have to explain his train of thought by thinking thoroughly in his head about the reasons of his actions making sure that the wolf subconscious part understood a decision, and not just see the end action and be shunned off without knowing at the very least the reason why something was done one way and not the other. That was a complication that he did not foresee and it was almost like talking to an imaginary friend. But right now his imaginary friend was real and asking for answer... "But I had to, you were going to kill that kid... Do you at least realize how much power you hold behind those hands??"

"After what he did to us, that kid had it coming soon or later. As well as that John Austin... If I ever get my hand on him, I will break his neck!"

"Hold it... You're being to extreme, your living in a city with people, not the deep woods. You cannot just valse around breaking people necks without good justification."

"Yea, just watch me..."

"That my wolf is the reason I have not trusted you so far and been working very hard to hold you back and ignore you. You don't understand that these kind of action it will get us Jailed or worst killed. The human world does not tolerate having a mindless killer on the loose. Beside, just killing for the fun of killing, will take us to the dark side"

"So what?"

"Going to the dark side lead to us turning into a direwolf for eternity. Is that what you want? Remember what the alpha told us about that. The clan we chose will be dictated by our action. Just look at my memories of what a direwolf looks like, your presence here is in direct relation to that close encounter that nearly killed me. Is that really what you want us too become? An ugly forever angry and evil killing beast, that is always in pain with no other purpose in life? Even though I did not spend as much time studding you as you apparently have of me, I still had a good glimpse at you, enough to know that you're basically not evil and do also like the other fun in life. Remember, going to the dark side is a lonely life, you're a creature that loves being in a pack with others. Are you willing to throw all that away, and only serve your low beastly instinct?

The wolf just stayed there, silent in thought at the implacable logic that it had just been serve. Usually working more on instinct, logic was not its primary mode of thinking but it was not beyond its reach, and the wolf was not dumb either understanding full well that Randal, the human was quite right in his affirmation. Sensing that he finally was getting the upper hand and was able to sway the beast toward his line of though, Randal finally felt that they might be able to work together after all. It seems that his beast wolf was able to work with logic and that was the key in an agreement unifying them together. That was a lucky break for Randal as their future was not looking great before he was able convince the wolf that it was the only way to go, otherwise they would both have been getting into deep trouble.

"Now, there is another question that is nagging me... Are you the one giving me those feeling toward my friend?"

"I like him..."

"You like him?? But he's a boy!..."

"I don't care, I like him a lot... Beside haven't you paid attention to the way he looks at you, and handle himself when he's near you?..."

"No... no not really..." Now Randal was looking back at all his memory trying to piece up all what his wolf was telling him... "But I'm not attracted to guys, never been..."

"No but I am... And your friend seems to like us a lot. In fact he's the only one that has stayed along by our side you no mater what. Beside, you... we... don't have any other true friends and my feeling is telling me that it's more then a friendship that is involved here, and I like him for that feeling, it's mutual. So I would like to explore and go beyond friendship."

"What? You are attracted to boys?"

"Have you been listening what I was saying here?? To your friend, yes I am..."

"There is no way I'm turning gay. I've never been one, and not starting to be one because of you."

"Why not... Were is your logic now, you put it away when it does not suit your feelings? Give me one good logical reason why it would not work..."

"I... ... ... Never saw myself going that way."

"We can be both, you like girls and I like boys."

"..." Randal was just speechless his logic used against him, realising that his wolf was a lot more intelligent then he looked, and that his life just became even more complicated then just being a werewolf. He was now going to be a bisexual werewolf... It was a lot to take in and now Randal was really getting an understanding as to why his alpha did urge him to take the elixir. Since the biting so much had been happening in his physical life that he had not notice the true need of his wolf and that situation was just begging for later troubles. Luckily his alpha was able to see that in time.

"Ok... How about this... I will release the control I have over you when we are dealing with wolf affairs and when we are dealing with normal people I'll be in charge, but will try to give you an understanding of my action. On the other hands you won't argue with my decision. Of course for now on, I will also try when it's possible to take into account your feeling. Of course, I'll leave all the fighting to you, but I also will be the one deciding when there is fighting and when it ends. I'll keep you from doing the wrong stuff in the human society and you'll prevent me from doing the dumb stupid stuff in the werewolf society. On the other hand, I'll also agree to take your feeling for my friend into consideration and let you have some fun with them, but I want you to go slowly, we're not even sure he is gay. And if I want to have fun with some girl you let me. Deal!"

"... ... ... Deal. But understand that I don't like the idea of being the subaltern to some other wolf. I want to be the Alpha!"

"Well, my wolf, you're gonna have to hold on that idea for a while. Don't forget that we don't even know what our real strengths will be. I think it would be better to assess that first after the first moon. For now we better stay calm and see how we fit in. If we try to impose ourselves, and we end up being a small wimpy werewolf, then we'll be in lots trouble. Beside, we're still only 14, remember! Even if we're the meanest, biggest bad ass werewolf around, we still will not be allowed to take leadership and take the alpha role before the age of 21 anyway... So, for now, you'll have to sit on it."

"Ok I will agree to that but when that John Austin character comes along I want to be the one having a word with him."

"Fine, but you must promise me that you won't kill him. Remember what the Alpha told us... The only people that we're allowed to kill are the ones treating our life or the life of our fellow werewolves, friends, and families. If it ever comes to that, I promise that I will leave you that part of the job, and let you end it as you see fit. I'm sure you'll like that."

"Definitively, I will love that. Then it's an agreement." The werewolf said extending his paw, the human part of Randal doing the same, and they shook hands. "Now that we agree on the important stuff, let have some fun, I've been waiting to do that for a long time." The werewolf said with what look like a mischievous smile, while stimulating their common penis. Let just say that the end of the night did end up in a big wet dream.

The next day as Randal woke-up, he felt his wet boxer sticking to his skin, being somewhat heavy. Getting up and taking them off he found out that he had in deed experience a wet dream boasting a huge volume of sperm, bigger then he had ever experience, his genital and boxer were entirely drenched with the gelatinous white substance, and lots of it. The slow process of becoming a werewolf was really starting to have its effect. Also, while looking down there, Randal saw that there was a whole lot more pubic hair. It almost looked like fur, while his genital were getting bigger by the days. The only problem was that he did not know if it was a werewolf thing or if it was a normal adult human thing. On the other hand, his penis was now often getting in the way of his normal activity easily getting big hard on all the time. He wondered if it was like that for other kids of his age. Maybe he could ask his friend if he had the same problems.

Only two days left till the full moon and it was the first official day of the summer break. So Randal did his usual morning business of showering, eating breakfast then for the first time leaving for the nearest safe house that was about a block away. Since he did not had the time to convince his mom into retrofitting the house appliance yet he had to leave to that place for his morning dump and was kind in a hurry. Arriving at the place that look like any other house around the block, he did rang the front door bell and a guy in his thirty's came to the door.

"O, you must be the new wolf living nearby that the alpha told me about. Your name is Randal right. What can I do for you?"

"Well, it's kind of strange for me to be asking but I was told to come here for you know my needs, and right now I really need to go..."

"Relax it's ok, you're not the only one having this problem and it's perfectly normal for a werewolf. Take the second door on your right. You can flush the toilet as many time has you want, just push the red button on the wall beside you. Don't worry it can take everything you can trow at it. Just come see me when you are done I'll be in the kitchen."

About 20 minute later. Randal was done and went to the kitchen as instructed.

"A, here you are my little furry friend. In view of your previous predicament I did not have time to properly introduce myself. My name is Eddy Aster, you can just say Ed if you want. I'm not a werewolf like you but a keeper, and as such have dedicated my life into helping you guys'. Did you had any problem back there with the appliance?"

Warning, If you don't like to read about bodily function, then I suggest that you skip the next two paragraphs. *(Please see the footnote at the chapter end)

"No sir, I was happily surprised how much it can take. How does it work?

"Randal, you can drop the sir and just call me Ed, no need to be formal here. As for your question, that appliance has a bigger bottom hole that is right over a commercial shredder that also acts like a pump. So every time you push on the red button not only it does suck everything, but it also crushes any solid waste like bones that could be part of your faeces, while cycling the water in the bowl like any other toilet. Also, as you have seen, the bowl is much bigger then a regular toilet and is also able to support a lot more weight because werewolves are usually using it in their wolf anthro form as, how should I say... When you will finally be able to change into your anthro wolf form after your first moon, you will also see that in that form, your ass hole being a lot bigger, it wills takes a lot less time to accomplish it's primary function compare to what you're now experiencing. So instead of taking 15 to 30 minutes to take a dump, it will be cut down to the normal 2 to 3 minute if you do it in your new wolf anthro form. As for the unusual shape of the toilet, we had to removed everything that would have impeded the normal placement the wolf anthro tail when he sits down. As you know a tail is basically it's a stiff piece of bone that the wolf anthro has to lift away before taking a dump. As you can imagine the regular toilet water tank is just in the way of where the tail wants to normally rest, same for the normal seat cover forcing the antro into an uncomfortable siting position. That is why the pressurized water tank is now part of the base and the seat cover absent or hinged from the side in order to leave a big two feet gap of empty space between the back of the seat and the wall so that there enough room and free space for the optimum placement of a big wolf anthro tail. It's also for the same reason that the toilet seat has this strange form, where there is a four inches dip at the back where the tail would be place. Trust me, you'll appreciate those modifications once you become an anthro. BTW, in here I've opted for the more traditional toilet types were one has to sit on it, but you will encounter in other places a toilet type that is radically different from this one, were it's more like a hole in the floor. If you're about to use one of those types of toilet just makes sure it's one with a shredder that is able to handle lycan waists because there are also toilets of that type for regular folks. If you ever use the wrong one you will end up with a big mess on your hand, so just be careful about that."

"Wow, a lot of thought to detail has been put into that thing, and that is also explaining the unusual shape. Not having had my first moon, I have not experienced being a wolf anthro yet, so I never thought about the tail problem and sitting on a regular toilet... Now that I'm thinking about it, I'm very curious as to see how it will feel to have a tail and wag it..."

"That my furry friend is something that I'm curious to hear from you. Now do you want to eat some meat, I know that you must be craving it, since you're only two days away from your first moon."

"Yea please"

While Randal started to eat the huge amount of food that was put there on the table, the keeper took that time to tell Randal about what's going to happen.

"Please eat your fill, I have more then enough to feed an army here. Ever since I've learned about you living nearby, I did resupply on some basic. Before your first moon, it is very important that every time you eat, you feed yourself until satiation. Doing so, will help you a lot in your transformation as it's the only one you will have to go through. If you don't eat enough, you will become a smaller wolf as your body will lack the essential building block for the transformation. Right now your body is staking up those supply in that extra wolf dimension of yours, that is why it does not show that much on your waist or your weight."

"You tell me... I think I've just been doing that for the past weeks, eating, and eating, and more eating..."

"Don't worry my little furry friend, once you're transformed it will be much easier as you will feed yourself in your anthro wolf form and it will take that much lesser time as you will be able to gobble up a lot more food with every bite. Right now it's like your trying to feed a few thousand-pound body, while using your human mouth that was just not designed to do that."

"What is this meat? It's so good."

"It's freshly killed deer that was brought here by your pack this morning. As I was saying, this feeding problem will be a thing of the pass after your first moon. Now as to what you need to prepare for... Tomorrow afternoon we will have to bring you to the sanctuary that is about half an hour drive from the den. The den being the alpha house, in case they have not told you. There you will spend the full moon night with the rest of the packs from the region safely away from any population. The reason for that is that on the full moon, werewolves like your self tend to loose their aggressive inhibition and are more dangerous toward lesser and weaker humans. It could prove to be deadly for both groups, if you were left among the general population on those night. Now, do not worry about lasting effect of the moon because by the following morning, you'll be right back to normal. Don't forget that this occurs only about twelve nights a year. It's a small price to pay for werewolves but I've heard that they just have a good time in there, as it's about the only time were they can have their wolf take total control without fear for the others. So since your mom does not know about you being a werewolf, then I suggest that you ask her if you could go pass an overnight to one of your friend house. That would be the alpha house, and Patrick, your friend will have to do the same. That way you will not arouse suspicion, and it's a plan that has already been discus with the alpha. He will come by himself with his truck and one of his kid that is about your age to pick you up along with Patrick, tomorrow night at 6 pm. Be there, your lives depend on it. You don't have to bring anything with you other then yourself in your normal street clothing and a change of clothing for the day after like you would normally do if you were to go do an overnight at a friend place. Your friend might want to bring a jacket as the night can be somewhat cold. Everything else will be explained when you'll get there. In the mean time, I would urge you to come here for all your meal until tomorrow night. Just eat your regular meal at home then come here to fill your self up till satiation, it's very important, you will need all those meat proteins. Any question?"

"Yea, will you be there at the sanctuary tomorrow night?"

"Of course I'm one of the keeper that is helping in erecting the protecting field around the place."

"The protecting field?"

"You will see, it a kind of force field that is preventing movement in and out from the sanctuary for the entire night of the full moon. You guys will be safely inside while we the keeper will be mounting the guard outside the barrier."

After about 30 minute of feeding himself with fresh deer meat under the watchful eyes of the keeper Randal finally got his fill.

"I'm done, tanks for your help. So After dinner I can come here to have another go at this meal? I've never ate something that good..."

"Of course it's here for you, but I guess I will have to call for some more as you ate more then one deer in only one sitting. Usually a normal wolf your age would not eat nearly as much. I think that you will turn out to be quite a big wolf. And yes you can come here anytime you need something or have a question."

Randal got up from the table and went to the front door followed by the keeper. Just before he left, having good manners he did turn around and shake the keeper hand saying tank you for his help.

"Ed, do you mind if I bring Patrick along when I come back for dinner?"

"No, Please bring him, I'll be more then pleased to know him and show him around, plus he will see first hand all the hurdle you have to go through. He's in the know, and a part of your new reality, like me, and the more he knows about werewolves, the better he can be of help you if you have a problem."

"Tanks Ed!" Then Patrick left for his friend house.

That morning they decided to go to a secluded pebble beachhead on the lake front not too far from their places so they could have a more private chat. As Randal sat on his bike both tire went flat under his weight. "God dammed... This F*** wolf is starting to get on my nerve. Hold it Patrick, I think well have to go on foot, my new me is unfortunately not compatible with regular bikes!"

Finally reaching their destination they sat down on the pebble surface and started chatting while nonchalantly sending pebble skidding on top of the surface.

"So Randal tell me how was the dream last night?"

"Patrick it was the weirdest dream I ever had. It felt like it was real while being in a bizzard land. I did saw and talk to my wolf and it was, how should I say, interesting. That potion or elixir they gave me did really do what they say it would do, but I don't think I ever want to relive the experience. Short answer, it's a good thing I had a chat with my wolf cause we had differing point of view on many things that I will now have to take into account, same for him. He was surprisingly intelligent and very perceptive of things that I never even considered or saw. In effect we came to an agreement, and it's a good thing, cause left uncheck with him in charge I would be a crazy killer. On the other hand I did agree to do stuff that right now I do not want to talk about and will wait for my first change before I do."

"Wow, far out man! I whish I could be like you..."

"No you don't and we already did discus that."

"Yea I know but it seems so fascinating. I just can wait to see you all wolf up." Patrick said with a bit of laughing.

"Good for you, but I don't think I can say I'm in a hurry for the change after they told me what's involve and all the pain I will have to endure... Anyway it's tomorrow night. BTW you know that you will have to come too, to be with the keeper."

"Really?"

"Yup! Ed, the keeper that is living a block away from our house told me to bring you in after dinner so he could instruct you about it. Like me you will have to pretend that you will go for an overnighter at a school friend house. It's the actual alpha with one of his kid acting like a fried that will come pick us up tomorrow after noon."

"Make sense, but why do they want me there?"

"I'm not sure but it has to do about you learning more about the werewolves, I think it would be better if ask them . In the mean time, let just enjoy the rest of the morning here, it's nice, and right now I don't feel like doing anything then digesting my morning meal. I know that mom wants me to cut the grass, but I think it can wait until this afternoon."

"Yea, same for me, I'll guess that we'll be doing it together then, it will be just that more fun." Patrick laughing...

The two boy started to send stone across the water surface... Then Randal did suddenly wanted to try something. With a big flat and round stone in his hand, he threw it with all his might, and the stone started to skip and kept going and going and going until they lost sight of it because it was too far away.

"Man Randal, wow... You should try for baseball next year, I mean just wow... Did you see how far it went??"

"Yea I'm sure I would be a star but I don't think it would be fair for the regular folks. I would feel like cheating all the time... And this is the other reason as to why I should not..."

Randal picked up a rock that was roughly about two third the size of his hand squeezed it, making this big crunching sound only leaving small rubble and sand falling off the bottom, has he released the pressure and open up his hand.

Patrick just froze wide-eyed at what he had just witness... It actually took a little while before he could talk again. "Man, did you just crush that rock?? Wow... Definitively Wow... That is incredible!!! From now on, no body will ever want to beat you up." Patrick laughing a bit.

"No Patrick, you don't understand, I cannot go around and show everyone my true nature. It would be dangerous to you, me and our family. And the thing that disturbs me the most is the fact that I'm walking around with the equivalent of a loaded gun in my hand. One false move, one slip, a flare up of my temper, and I could kill someone. I'm walking on eggs all the time. Not only that but I have to restrain the wolf part of me who would love to see me, be more aggressive. He's somewhat of a sociopath, who would not mind just killing my enemy or anybody in my way for that mater. Against other werewolf as strong and resilient like me, it's fine as I could not kill them on a wimp, and it's kind of expected to be more violent and virile among ourselves. But among humans, I'm just treading this fine line... I'm guessing that they know I can handle it because they did let me come back to my former life, but it will never be the same."

Patrick sitting just beside Randal turned his head looking up at his friend at his friend face as he was now a bit taller.

"Randal... Don't forget, I'll always be by your side, no mater what, and will do everything in my power in order to help you. I think this is what the other from your clan perceived of me and is probably why they ask me to tag along."

Those world caught Randal attention, as his friend kept on turning his upper body, using his arm to encircle Randal, and putting his forehead against his friend arm, while looking down having an up swelling of emotion bringing tears to his eyes. Randal could not feel anything other then happiness from this show of affection that was also bringing up in him a swelling of emotion as he did put his chin onto his friend head using his hand to pet his hair.

"Tanks Patrick, that mean a lot to me..." Both of them sitting there, holding each other and crying... Randal was just very grateful to have such a good friend.

After a while, Randal started to realise that they've never been this close before, and all kinds of question started to float up in his mind. *Was this happening because of his wolf? Was Patrick always like that and he never saw it or did he also change? Is it because of my wolf that I'm now seeing this? My life is becoming so much more complicated by the day...* Randal though, but he surely did enjoy the moment.

It was some very loud gurgling coming from Randal stomach that finally did bring an end of the special moment.

"Hum... Patrick?"

"Yea I've heard..."

"It's almost noon and I'm starting to have this great hunger where I think I could eat a horse. I will need to feed soon, and should not, under any circumstance skip a meals. The alpha has strongly warn me against that, for has long as I have not gone through my first moon, otherwise my wolf will just take over going for the nearest source of protein. If that ever happen, you will not want to be anywhere near me. Time to go back!" Randal said somewhat laughing but at the same time in an authoritative way feeling all the truth behind that reality. Then he rose up to his feet pulling his friend up and they started to walk back to the safe house as promised with ED. Of course they did phone their respective parents stating that they would not be there for dinner.

Back at Ed place they were all gathered in the kitchen eating dinner. The two humans eating a regular meal and Randal going through his gargantuan food pile, eating as fast as his human limitation could permit. So while Randal was still ravenously eating like... a werewolf, whish in this case should be more appropriate then saying a pig. Patrick and Ed did finish their meals.

"So Ed, this is all new to me, are all the werewolves eating... that much?" Patrick looking at Randal and still having difficulty, accepting the fact that his friend was happily ingurgitating all that food... it was so inhuman!

"Patrick, it's perfectly normal for a new werewolf before his first moon to be doing that. He had only a few days to get into his system as much protein as he will need for his transformation into his new body. In fact, he was lucky to have more then a week to prepare. Some unlucky ones having less then a few days to prepare usually have great difficulty doing the transformation and are often smaller because of a lack of protein. Do not forget that's his first transformation under his first moon will be his one and only transformation. After that the werewolf is always there and just partly hidden in another dimension as there is no further transformation other then some growth when the wolf is still a pup. Although in this case judging from the amount of food ingested, its safe to predict that he will be a huge one. In fact I've never seen a pup eat so much before transformation. So..." Ed looking at Randal still engorging himself "I guess, we'll see..."

"After that how big will he be?"

"As a human, probably six inches to a foot taller then he otherwise would have been, and he will have a very athletic body proportional to his wolf size."

"Wow, he once told me that his father was quite tall at 6'-2" and very slims, but his mom is not too tall at 5'-6". So he could be as high as 7'-2" as an adult?"

"That is correct, all werewolf tend to end up being quite tall as human adult. It's very rare to see one below 5'-10" or so as it's very rare to see a regular human man shorter then 5'-4."

"And as a werewolf how big?"

"O, that may vary, a good size one might be in the range of 8'-6 to the huge 10'+ ones. All of your facilities are made to be able to accept werewolf up to 10' in size"

"10'+??" Patrick looking wide-eyed at Ed.

"Yup, I've seen a few and I must say that they are very impressive to say the least... But they are rare, you don't often see one that big. I think the last one I saw that was that big was about 20 years ago at a werewolf convention, and he told me that in his regular life his height in human form, was 6'5 and that he was a contractor."

"Werewolf convention??"

"Yup... They have those every year and is a great way to meet other lycan and keepers learning stuff from others and more."

"Hum, a lycan convention it sound so cool, I hope we'll attend one someday... BTW, I had a look around when I came in I must say the lycan facility installed in this house are quite impressive, especially the strange looking toilet, and that huge shower with the industrial dryer."

"Custom made by a lycan own factory and build in secrecy so as to not attract any unwanted eyes. It surely is impressive to see the installation for the first time. I did have the same experience 20 years ago when I was introduced to the lycan stuff, like you, but at the age of 13 when close friends was also turned. And like me, you could become a keeper if you have the passion and want to put in the effort."

"I don't know, I guess I will have to see what's involved first, but because my best and only friend is now one of them, I think I'll have to think things over. So tomorrow are you going to come along with us to the moon site?"

"But of course, as a keeper it's my duty to be there. Tell you what, since you have to leave your friend and let him be with the other werewolf on the other side of the fence, why don't you accompany me and help with the outer perimeter surveillance. My wife and I, were leaving by car at 5:00 pm., about the same time you guys are with the Alpha. Hey, you could come with us instead of the alpha." "Tanks for your help but it's already planed out since our parent are not aware of the werewolf thing, we are making believed that we are friends to Andy Walter the alpha oldest kid, and we're going to pretend that we are going to spend tomorrow night at the alpha house with our friend. Because of that, it's the alpha himself accompanied with Andy that will be coming to get us at about the same time that you leave."

"No, no... I was talking the second half of the trip from the Alpha house to the sanctuary."

"Tanks, but I'd rather want to stay with my friend"

"Then in that case you'll join me at the sanctuary."

"Great... It seems that Randal has finish his lunch! Hey Randal are you done?"

"Uuurrp... Yea I'm stuffed but I must say that this really hit the spot. I really love fresh deer meat."

"How about we go to the shopping centre game store?"

"Great!... But remember, I can no longer take my bike..."

"We'll walk then. Thank you Ed, it's been nice meeting you. See you tomorrow night."

"Patrick don't forget to bring some warm clothing in case of colder temperature."

"Ok, Bye"

The rest of the day went by then Randal came back to the safe house after eating a regular supper at his house in order to again stuff himself on red meat, and soon enough 24 hours had passed, and it was 5:00 pm the night of the full moon.

* (note) Some of you might find that this talk about tail bone, anus and toilet between Randal and Ed to be kind of crude, but I've decided to have Ed talk to Randal like I would talk to a 14 years old kid that has just learn not more then 2 weeks ago that he will become a werewolf. Not only that but don't forget that Randal has not experience or really seen a werewolf in his anthro wolf form other then that smoky shape in his dream. So talking about a tail that he never had or experience and how a normal toilet could cause trouble is perfectly normal. I think to be vague about those things, just to be politically correct, would be counter productive. I really try to keep the story as close to real life as possible if it did really happen. And yes I'm sure that this is the kind of question a 14 years old boy would ask after seeing or using such an appliance for the first time. LOL
