• As Jamie is staring at the clock, begging for the bell to ring that will anounce to the students of bull river creek high school summer has begun and school has ended. Finlay the bell ringed its sweet tone of relief and the chains of education were unlock and the beasts that attended the school were freed. Jamie slowly walked down the halls try to find her best friend, Shane. Shane was a muscular but chubby friend of Jamie, he was extremely intelligent and a true friend to be around. Jamie and Shane have been best friends since the seventh grade and have never kept a secret form each other, but one.
    Jamie noticed last year that she would blackout for no reason and she never told anyone. she figured that it was because all the hard work and lack of sleeping and eating. so she just kept it to herself. Jamie found Shane where she thought he would be, the snack Manichean,eating.
    "SHANE!",shrieked Jamie
    "JAMIE!", shouted Shane with a mouth full of gummy bares.
    "Shane I have something i want to tell you..."
    "Not now I've gotta catch the bus, unlike you i have to ride the bus home but you can come over later to my house where we can talk in privet because I have something I wanna tell you too."whipped Shane as he walked away to catch to the bus home.
    " I don't know why he just wont let me drive him home we only live two miles apart, but then again his dad never liked me and my family."thought Jamie.Jamie walks all the way to the other side of the school where car riders and students park.Jamie parked all the way in the back so no one would scratch or dent her truck, like it mattered it way a piece of junk her dad brought her, a 77 Chevrolet pick-up truck, but she thought it was gold and perfect for her.
    she said her goodbyes to the rest of her friends. she was kind of happy that she did not drive Shane home today because she wanted to talk to a special group of "people". If Shane was there he would not let her stop and talk to them he called them the "undesirables".As she was walking toward them she heard a firmly voice coming up to her. It was Shane.
    "Jamie wait up, i think i'' let you drive me home today my dad is out of town so he wont know you took me home,....hey were going over there to talk to them freaks?" asked Shane
    "No of coarse not i was going to my truck!"
    "oh OK you know you don't belong with them freaks, they are gods mistake and should of stayed hidden from the world and let the hunters wipe them out"
    "Shane! don't say that they are still humans and have the right to be treated like humans, not animals!"
    "OK miss human caring person lets just go please"
    "Alright."
    Jamie drives Shane home. Shane lives in the biggest house is all of Albania county. his family is the riches too and Jamie's is almost white trash but Shane never let that get between their relationship. Shane invites Jamie in from a after school snack.
    "Gosh Shane i can't believe that it has been three years seance I've been in your house and I've never seen all of it"
    "well that's why i wanted you to come over to show you something, follow me to the elevators". Jamie follows Shane and gets in the elevators.
    "we in staled the elevator when mom got real sick"
    "i know Shane that was the last time i was here,right before she died.well as she did not suffer"
    "yeah i know, floor three,lets go"
    "what is this Shane?"the room was painted a dark color and had guns, weapons,and looked like stuffed animals around the room but it was too dark to see because of the dark thick curtains.
    "this is my dad's favorite room in the whole entire house, his trophy room." said Shane as he went to flip the light switch.
    Jamie jumped back in horror.
    "Whats wrong scary cat? afraid of a stuffed shape shifter?"
    the shape shifter was monuted in it animal form, a stag. Jamie was unaware that shape hunting was legal is Africa and that was were Shane's dad was this week.
    "Dad badged this on about a month ago."
    "This is legal?" asked Jamie.
    "Yes but only in Africa were they are a probable and can not be controlled."
    "But these are human beings how could someone do this?"
    " When these shifters stay in there wild stage for too long it becomes permanent and can not be tamed, they are destroying the country!''
    "But why?" question Jamie
    "sorry Jamie i didn't know that you had feelings for these nothings"
    "I don't but i know cruelty when i see it and this is wrong"
    "Ya know what lets just go down stairs and forget this ever happen?"
    "you can but I'm going home, good-bye Shane" said Jamie as she got on the elevator and press the bottom floor button. She left the house in a blaze spinning wheels and all. Shane could hear the rumbles as she went down the road. went she got home her father was there waiting for her.
    "Where have you been? i thought school let out early today?"he asked
    "I took Shane home, did you know that they have an elevator? Also that in Africa they are shooting and killing shape shifters for sport! Shane's father has a couple mounted in his room, in there wild state of course."
    "that is horrible sweety, and no i didn't know they had a elevator",replied her dad
    "I know!, Daddy, i have something i want to tell you..."
    "What is it darling?"
    "Daddy i have been..."
    "hold that though" Jamie's dad interrupted her before she could finished her sentence. Jamie's mom pulled up in the car with tonight dinner,pizza.
    "hey Jamie!"said her mom. Jamie's mom was a beautiful women with short blond hair, deep blue eyes, and a coke glass figure. Jamie's father was a big man at least six foot five, sky blue eyes, dark tan all year round, only because he works outside.
    "Jamie can you help me bring your food in?"
    "yes mommy dearest" Jamie said in a scartiasc tone
    "don't get smart with me of you wont eat tonight", her mom said in a joking tone. they all went inside and ate pizza. Jamie's mom picked out Jamie's favorite movie and the all set back and watched it. later that night Jamie went up stairs to her room, also know as the attic. what could she do it had plenty of space and a great view to the woods be hide her house. when she got to her room she turned on her computer and saw seven IMs from Shane, she ignored them and opened a web page to look up why she was blacking out. a few thousand results popped up but the first one really caught Jamie's eye:Early Signs Of Shape Shifters. Just out of curiosity she clicked on this was kind of a joke to her clicking on this link.
    "Shape shifter don't really start changing until the reach 16 years of age for girls and 14 for boys. The symptoms of changing are blacking out,loss of appetite, wild dreams of one turning in to animal, and the last stage is shifting on a full moon into the first animal one comes into contact with and has three more changes until that animal is permit. only one in a million can change into any animal the want at anytime. A shape shifter's parents must be a shifter also for one to be one." after Jamie reading this she knew that being a shape shifter was truly out of the question. If she was the full moon was three days away and just for the fun of it she would go outside and pet her dog, gunner for the heck of it. She only wanted to do this because she was board out of her mind.
    Before she knew it. It was 12:34 way after her bed time so Jamie shut off her computer and went down stairs to see that her parents were already in bed fast asleep. She went back upstairs to take a shower. when she got out she dryed out and jumped in her bed to go to sleep and for some reason that night she dreamed
    a wild dream that she was a deer running in a Forest from a hunter. The hunter part was what scared her bad enough to wake her up. the hunter was Shane and he showed no Mercy to her as he raised his gun to pull his trigger Jamie turned into her human form as Shane pulled the trigger and shot a load of buck shot into her heart before Jamie knew it she woke up in a cold sweat and was in a lost state of mind.
    "maybe because that article was the last thing i read it made my mind wonder and i had this dream as a result of that" though Jamie. she fell back a sleep and woke up around ten o'clock that morning.
    "good morning star shine!" said her dad all cheery like.
    "morning daddy" mumbled Jamie while she rubbed her eyes. Jamie was never a morning person.
    "Oh girly your friend Terri called your cell at nine this morning i told her you were sleeping and that you would call her back". Jamie goes into the living room to get her cell phone from her pocket book. she pulls out her cell phone and dials Terri's number.
    "hello?" answered Terri.
    "Hey Terri it's Jamie, dad said that you called me"
    "yeah i wanted to know if i can come over?"
    "shure you can, you don't even have to ask me!"
    "ok I'll be over after 11"
    "ok see you soon, bye"
    "Bye". After Jamie got off the phone with Terri she went back up stairs to get dressed. When she came back down she sees Terri already sitting there at the kitchen table. Terri was tall, slender girl with wild forest green eyes. she had long Brown hair with all kinds of colors for highlights but this week she was just her natural brown
    "Hey what do you thing about shape shifters?" asked Jamie
    "I have no probable with them, as a matter of fact i wanna become one, and my cousin Bobby is one or is about to be one after the full moon tomorrow night" said Terri.
    "really?" asked Jamie
    "yeah i got to go,it's going to be a party, and his parents are so proud of him. Would you like to come, oh please come. It's going to be so boarding."
    "I guess I'll come. just please don't tell my dad that's where were going" replied Jamie. After their talk in the kitchen Jamie and Terri went and got into Jamie's pool and floated around for a while. After they got out Terri had to leave to go help with tomorrows party.
    " Daddy, tomorrow Terri's cousin is having a birthday party and Terri wanted to know if i would come, and bobby is a real nice guy and i like to hang out with him and Terri"
    "yeah i guess so but you better clean the house like your mother told you to do before she left this morning" ordered her father.
    "Yes sir I'll get it done right now."
    "ok well i gotta go to work too sweetie, see you this afternoon". Jamies father left to go to work her dad worked at the paper mill across town, and Jamies mom worked two counties over as a vet tech. After Jamie was done cleaning and washing all of everyone clothes she went and watched television. She flipped trough the channels with noting to watch stoped on the news channel.
    " Today's breaking news: African hunts of shifters maybe be allowed in Europe, should we get rid of these animals/humans or allow them the same rights as everyone Else?tune in at 11:30 " this might be interesting to watch, i don't know why I'm so interested in these things now i don't even know any and what have they done for me lately? thought Jamie
