[DESCRIPTION: This is a story reworked from my failed rp "Awaken: the hidden forest" Its in basically the same setting, im still working it all out. Forgive my sucky writing ,lol I definitely need practice. either way tell me what you think!]
"This morning I was happy, I dont remember why but I know it was good, and........ I know I was a human, though im not entirely sure what that is anymore. I can't remember anything before today, where I lived, who I was, what my name is, all of it gone ...... and that frightens me. I'm hungry, and confused, but more tired than anything. so for now..... I'll sleep"

Wind sweeps through the valley, making the grass roll like waves on an ocean. Stirring from my restless slumber, I stretch my legs, eyes watering as I yawn deeply. I was dreaming I was drowning, trapped someplace by an unseen barrier as water flooded in all around me. Pushing it from my mind ,my stomach growls. "oh, still hungry......" I sighed. Somewhere inside me I had hoped the hunger would stop on its own.
Shaking the dust from my fur,I walk over to the pond and take a drink. Somewhat satisfied, I sit on the bank and stare at my reflection. I wasn't sure what to think honestly, brown fur, pointed ears, yellow eyes. It was me, and yet it wasnt. I was obviously a wolf now, Although Im not sure how I knew that.
Suddenly the wind shifts, My ears perk up as i catch a scent. It took me minutes to track it to its source, It was a small rabbit. Its little nose twitched as it nibbled on clover. Despite its cuteness ,my aching stomach reminded me that I had to either eat, ........or starve.
Slowly I krept closer. tightening my muscles, I pounce! The rabbit struggles, scratching at me in a futile attempt to escape. Its eyes wide with terror, "sorry, little guy" I thought, as I go for the kill.
In one sickening crunch I snap its neck with my teeth. The deed is done and for a while I just sit there ,staring guiltily at the rabbits body. It felt bad I had to kill it. "It was him or me." I sighed guiltily."Besides if it wasnt me, some other predator wouldve picked him off in the end!" and with that logic, I finally eat.
