From Afar

There was a dark shadow right outside the door! It was on the porch and was crawling towards the door. It seemed to be some sort of animal. But it wasn’t moving very fast, it looked more like a big blob slowly moving. Overcome with curiosity, I got a closer look, it was a boy! He was near naked and drenched in blood. I gasped, quickly turned on the porch light and rushed out the door. He looked up and for the first time I saw his face.

He seemed to be about my age, maybe a year older, with short, sandy colored hair, and fair skin. His nose looked as if it were broken. But his eyes, his eyes were like none I had ever seen. They were the color of the sunset, made more beautiful with flecks of gold. I could have stared at them all night, but I was quickly snapped back to reality when he cried out in pain.

His eyes closed and he shivered violently, I ran in the house, grabbed
Some blankets and old rags, along with medical supplies. But when I returned to the porch, he was gone. All that was left in his place was a muddy paw print.

A week later, I was refilling the bird feeder that hung from a tree in my back yard, and was scanning the forest for any sign of that strange boy. Then suddenly I heard a branch crack, I looked up there was a wolf staring right at me! I almost couldn’t see it, it was so well camouflaged in the trees. Surprisingly I wasn’t scared. The wolf seemed pretty calm.

It was a reddish gray colored wolf with a muzzle lined with white hairs, but it looked young. When I looked at its face, I froze. It had the same eyes as the boy who had appeared on my porch!

Next part--


I gazed at the wolf as if i were in a dream. He just sat there staring at me with thoses pirecing, calm eyes. For what seemed like hours we sat and stared at each other. Suddenly out of nowhare i heard a car pull into the drive way.
The wolf jumped as if he were startled and slinked back into the woods. I wondered if i would ever see him again. I got up to investigate, and was shocked to see my mom's car in the drive way. She was never home at this time of day, and Christmas break was when she was gone the most! I looked at her questioningly and she just sighed.
I followed her into the house and asked, "Mom, why are you here?" She looked at me annoyed.
" I live here." I glared at her "What did i do? I wondered. As if she could read my thoughts, she said, " Oh honey, i'm sorry for lashing out at you, i have had such a hard day." She looked as if she were almost on the verge of tears.
" Mom?", I asked, "Are you ok?" Then she collasped.

"Mom!" I yelled franticly as i caught her, "Mom! Wake up!" Just then i heard another car pull into the drve way. I heard the door slam and footsteps comming up the steps, to the door, the doorknob turned, and Dad walked in. HJe saw me holding Mom, who was still unconscious. He looked scared for a moment, before a look of panic crossed his face. "Whats wrong? What happened to your mother?" He yelled as he ran for the phone dialing 911.

"I'm n-not s-s-sure." i said tears starting to stream down my face.
" It's ok honey" said my dad soothingly, "The 911 lady said that she just probobly didnt eat or drink enough, and that caused her to faint. But there on their way right now." I nodded as i sat next to my dad and listened to the aproaching sirens.

When the ambulance finally arrived, three guys hustled in and started checking my mom. One of the guys walked over to us and said, "She breathing fine and her pulse is good, but we don't know for sure what caused her to faint, so we will take her down to the hospital to run some tests." My dad nodded and said, We will be there shortly." The man nodded, and looking at me, said, "It's alright sweetie. Your mom will be ok." Then he walked away as the other two men carried my mom, who was on a stretcher, out to the ambulance. My dad and I sat there, not saying a word, as we listened to the ambulance pull out of the drive way.

After what seemed like a long time, i looked up at my dad. "Why were you home from work so early?" I asked quietly.

He sighed tiredly, "I had just received a call from Mom. She said she wasn't feeling very good, ans that she was going home. I knew it had to be serious, because your mom hardly ever gets sick, and when she does she would never miss an art show because of it." I nodded, i understod, Mom would rather die than miss seeing the newest, best work by artist whoever.

"Should we go to the hospital yet?" I asked. Dad nodded, "Let's go."
