More Is Explained

Hi all sorry for not writing sooner but im back and ready to give you another chapter.

Chapter 15

The wolf ran with Lanton in his mouth for five miles, before finally being forced to take a break. He gently set Lanton down and watched the elf tend to the younger's scratches, gotten from running through the woods.

"We can not rest long, the lessers are not close enough to threaten yet but they are still on our trail," the wolf informed them, as howling in the distance emphasized his point. He lay down then still panting from the long run.

"Why would you help us... or for that matter, who the hell are you?" demanded Mevran. He had grown tired of this need to know shit the wolf seemed to be pulling. He still didn't even understand why he was following it. After all, they didn't even know the wolf's name.

"Forgive me, I forgot myself. My name is Ivaylo. The humans that bred me in the lab were not original. They taught me that my name comes from a thirteenth-century Bulgarian emperor, and it means wolf. Like I said, no originality." Ivaylo told them, his ears twitching as another howl reached his ears.

Lanton stood slack-jawed, "You mean to tell us your one of the original werewolves bred long ago, but that's impossible. To have been born back then would make you well over 300 years old!!!!!!" The wolf's response was only to smile at the half-blood.

"That would explain much how many pure werewolves are left in the world?" the elf asked.

"Sadly, I am only one of a dozen left. When the humans tried to enslave us they were bitten and thus the lessers were born yet again. The lessers decided that they didn't like the ways of the true werewolves and they rebelled. We suffered tremendous losses as did they, but unlike them we couldn't replenish our race by biting others so we disbanded and are hiding in all corners of the world, watching as the lessers spread fear of wolves to all other races," answered, with interest, Ivaylo.

A long silence followed this explanation, broken only by the ever nearing howls of the lesser werewolves.

"Come we must go, can you run or will you need to ride?" the wolf asked Lanton. Lanton apologized and said that he could not run yet, so the elf aided his charge onto the wolf's back.

"Dawn is not too far away, will you and the lessers transform into humans when the sun comes?" Mevran wanted to know, for he knew he could not continue on, "and if all of you do will they still pursue us?"

The large wolf chuckled as they ran, "No, they wouldn't dare attack till the next full moon. They wouldn't dare, you see I'm not like the werewolves you've heard about. I don't rely on the full moon to fuel my transformation; I can do it at will." That fact reassured the wolf's companions that they were safe come morning and were unbelievably glad when the morning came.

Unknowing what lay in their future,they boldly set forth to find happiness and safety in the lands beyond the lands of men.
