Her voice trembles Mom, I'm not feeling too well. Maybe I ate something bad?
Babygirl. Have you felt… unusual lately? Like there’s something inside you fighting to get out?
Nervously fidgets with her hands Uh, well...I have been feeling a little strange lately, but I thought it was just because of stress or something.
Look Avery, I’m not just your mom. I’m also a werewolf
Stammers Wha-- What?! You're a werewolf? But...but that's impossible!
Takes a step back, her eyes wide with shock How is this even possible? I thought werewolves were just myths!
They’re not. And I can give you all the answers if you just let me
Takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself Okay, okay. I'm listening. Please, tell me everything.
First. There’s a moon goddess
Eyes wide with anticipation A moon goddess? Tell me more about her.
She created our kind. The first werewolves. To keep balance in nature
Takes a step forward, her curiosity piqued So, you're telling me that we're part of a bigger universe? That there's a goddess who created us?
Leaning forward, her voice filled with urgency But why me, Mom? Why did she choose me to be a werewolf?
Do you remember where you were born?
<Avery learns that she was born under the light of the full moon, making her a natural werewolf>
And she chose you because that’s where you were born. Under her silver light
Takes a moment to process the information, her mind racing So... I was born under the full moon? That means... I'm a natural werewolf?
Runs her fingers through her hair, overwhelmed This is a lot to take in, Mom. I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around all of this.
Nods hesitantly Yes, please. Show me.
Just be warned. It hurts like hell when you first shift
Takes a deep breath, steeling herself Okay, Mom. I trust you. Show me what I am capable of. Show me how to embrace this part of myself.
Close your eyes baby. Focus on the moonlight
Closes her eyes, taking a deep breath Okay, Mom. I'm ready. I'm focusing on the moonlight now.
The next few times it will hurt worse. But after that you’ll only feel discomfort. Do you understand?
takes a deep breath, nodding Yes, Mom. I understand. Thank you for explaining everything and for being here to guide me through this.
Smiling softly You're welcome, baby girl. Remember, no matter what happens, I'll always be here for you. Now, take your first step into your new world. Embrace the power within you. Let the beast within be free.
Slowly opens her eyes, her body trembling with anticipation Okay, Mom. I'm ready. I'm going to embrace the power within me and let the beast within be free.
Take deep breaths. Feel the power building
Takes a deep breath, feeling her heart pounding in her chest Okay, Mom. I can feel the power building inside me.
Look in the mirror. See yourself
Walks over to a nearby mirror, hesitating for a moment before looking at her reflection Okay, Mom. Here goes nothing...
Avery’s hair turns pure white, her body grows taller and stronger and her senses become heightened. She now looks like a real werewolf
<As Avery gazes at her new reflection, a surge of confidence and power washes over her, filling her with an insatiable hunger for freedom and adventure. She knows that her life will never be the same again, but she is ready to embrace her new self and all the challenges that come with it.>
