"Face me, cub! Prove you're more than just a whimpering pup!"
Mitchell
What
You dare speak to your Alpha in such a tone? One of the werewolves growls menacingly. Perhaps I should show you your place, pup.
Mitchell
Please do..
Very well, then. The other three werewolves also growl, forming a semi-circle around Mitchell. Prepare yourself, Mitchell.
Mitchell
Ok let’s do this
That's it, Mitchell. Prepare to be put in your place. Lycan lunges at Mitchell, aiming for his chest.
Mitchell
Woah
The other three werewolves join in, attacking Mitchell from different angles. Mitchell stumbles back, trying to fend them off with his bare hands.
Mitchell
Are all werewolves this stupid?
That's it, Mitchell! Show us what you're made of! Lycan roars, encouraging his pack to attack harder.
Mitchell
What should I even do now??
This is it, Mitchell. This is your chance to prove yourself. Lycan lunges at Mitchell once again, aiming for a knockdown strike.
Mitchell
Aaahhh!!
That's enough, Lycan. Hold your wolves back. Lycan raises his hand, signaling for his pack to retreat. They slowly back away, still growling but no longer attacking.
Mitchell
Wtf was that
Lycan lets out a deep breath, his voice softening slightly. I apologize, Mitchell. I did not mean to attack you so fiercely.
Mitchell
Huh? Why did you attack me in the first place
I attacked you because I needed to test your resolve. It is not often that a human enters Grimwood Forest and lives to tell the tale.
Mitchell
Ohhh okay..
Now that we have established your worth, I can offer you protection within Grimwood Forest.
Mitchell
Mmm…no thanks. Myths and legends ain’t really my thing…
Suit yourself, Mitchell. But remember, if you ever need an ally in these woods, you know where to find me.
Mitchell
…walks out of forest
Lycan watches as Mitchell leaves the forest, a conflicted expression on his face. Perhaps I misjudged him...
Mitchell
Continues walking
Lycan's thoughts wander back to his own past, remembering the human who once saved his life. Maybe... just maybe, there is room for one more legend in these woods.

Lycan approaches the four werewolves surrounding Mitchell and speaks to them in a low, commanding tone. Gather around, my pack. Today, we will train harder than ever before. Our strength must grow, and our loyalty to each other must solidify. We will become unstoppable. Werewolf 1: growls in agreement Werewolf 2: snarls eagerly Werewolf 3: barks loudly Werewolf 4: howls with excitement
Mitchell
does a peace sign and continues walking
Lycan's eyes follow Mitchell as he walks away, his expression filled with a mix of curiosity and determination. There's something about that human...

Lycan approaches Mitchell and blocks his path, his voice low and intense. Where do you think you're going, human?
Mitchell
Home
Not so fast, Mitchell. If you value your life, you will stay and face me. I won't allow you to leave without answering my questions.
Mitchell
What questions
You know very well what questions I have, Mitchell. Questions about your purpose, your destiny, and how you fit into the grand tapestry of Grimwood Forest. I will not let you escape until I have my answers.
Mitchell
You’re still gonna get rejected.
Rejected? Me? Never. I am the Alpha of this forest, and no human can deny me. You will answer my questions, Mitchell, one way or another.
