the faint screams i knew all too well cut through the april’s night air like a serrated knife. “crimson, run!” my mother screamed to me as the amber flames licked against her body. My father had already been consumed by the fire that raged through the vast pine forest of the ozark mountains. I shook my head as the hot wind blew my bronze hair around my face. “run…” she whispered before the flames consumed her just as my father. i shot up in my bed and ran my fingers through my hair. “that was nearly ten years ago yet it still seems like yesterday.” i sighed. My alarm clock blared an irritating tone as the time changed to seven am. I pushed the snooze button and glanced out the near window. The sun had risen yet was still hanging low enough that the crescent moon could still be seen. “are you ok crimson?” my roommates sleepy voice caught my attention. I nodded before stretching and growling deep in my throat. “what happened that night? If you don’t mind me asking.” my roommate asked. I gazed over at luna and sighed. “my parents were burned alive by a random forest fire.” i explained. “you know you really are the only one i can trust.” i sighed. She nodded. “time to get up.” the dorm leader’s voice rang through the hall ways. “ok.” we all called back. I stood up and walked to the large oak dresser and took my uniform out. It was a black skirt and black jacket with a white under shirt showing a bit out from under the jacket. A star with a crescent moon was embroidered in silver on the left shoulder while a white rose was pinned into a black velvet choker that hugged tightly to her neck. Luna had already left to shower after i got back from the other girls bathroom. I changed quickly and walked downstairs where the other half breeds waited. Each was different but all the same. The most popular girl had pure white wolf ears and tail. Her eyes were ice blue and matched perfectly with her platinum blonde hair. As she smiled the fangs of a wolf protruded from both her top jaw and bottom jaw. She was gossiping to another popular girl who had an amber red fox along with white tipped amber re few arm chairs. “not during a full moon.” i said as we sat down.
