chapter one  
Running  

It took me almost half a minute to realize that I was underwater. You would think not being able to breath would have been my first big clue. But Nooooo not fore me. I had to wait for the unpleasant feeling of my lungs begging for air as if they were going to explode. I guess I should just be glad it didn't take me any longer. With that obvious realization I need air to breath, duh! I began to struggle for the surface of the water to get the air my lungs needed so desperately.  
 
 
Being a wolf I only know one way to swim, the same way any wolf or other dog like animal would swim. the dog paddle. which works but not as well as a human breath stroke. But as a wolf I was stronger then any human was i kept swimming to the surfaces remind myself this. The water felt so heavy and thick as I swam as  if I was swimming threw butter. I felt so weak as if I'd been running fore miles and miles… Wait I had been running… running hard… running for my life…  Before… Before I slipped.  I had slipped and fallen into this water… slipped and fallen from some places very high up.. but off what?  That part I couldn't remember.  
 
The memory was as hazy as my lungs were full. I keep swimming as fast as I can to the surfaces of the water. I fear I  will  never it but  I do. Just barely. Air, sweet air. Oh I'll never swim again. I'll never get in water again, I'll stop taking bathes. I don't care how bad I'll start to smell. But the hard part isn't over yet. Oh no not by a long shot.   
Because now I have to keep my head above water and the current is so strong, it’s dragging me down stream. I keep swimming though, I mean what choices do I have? Just like Dory from Finding Nemo would say, you just keep swimming, just keep swimming. Of coarse  Dory was a fish, she didn't have to worry about drowning. So maybe she isn't the best example to use in this in this scenario. Why are there no great wolfs in movies in TV shows I can think of to give me inspiration right now? I think to myself as the current slows down enough for me to dog paddle to shallow water. Then I remember why, because TV is geared to humans , well full humans not half humans like  myself. The only thing werewolf I could think of was Eddie monster from the monster TV show and Jacob from Twilight. I could relate more to  Eddie monster then Jacob, A little kid who everyone but his family thought was strang verse a guy with washboard abs who hated wearing shirts. Although I'm sure a guy with washboard abs would be in better shape then me. I think to myself when I make it to the shore and drag my tired wet body out of the water. I don't remember how long I've  been in the water, it could have been  an hour or it might have been a few minutes. Either way I'm glad to be on back dry land even though dragging myself back from the water is painfully hard. Every part of my body hurts. This must be how Anakin Skywalker felt like when he had to drag himself out of that pool of lava in the last Star Wars movie before he became Darth Vader. Granted I didn't have both my legs and one arm cut off. So I guess I was lucky and shouldn't complain.   
 
 
But I'm to tired to care right now. I collapsed on the ground. Breathing heavily. 
Air. Sweet air. it's so much easier to breath when your not fighting the current of a river. Oh I’ll never take you for granted again air. Even though  I'm breathing in as much sweat sweat air as I can, as if its going to go out of style I feel like I’m going to pass out.   
I can’t stop shaking. I’m so cold. The water was freezing. my fur coat isn't going to keep me warm wet. If only I had a blanket, a spaces heater, a roaring campfire or even a tanning bed. anything to make me feel warm right now. Suddenly something warm and dry is draped over my back. It actually smells like an old blanket. My eyes are closed because I’m to tired to open them so I don’t know who gave it to me....   
I open my eyes just a crack……And know right away whatever gave me the blanket.....   
....Isn't human, its to small to be human, and to fuzzy. Not that I'm I'm being picky I'm not  human either or at lest not  now.   
But right now I’m too tired and weak to care. so what ever  here right next to me good be a flying spaghetti monster and I still wouldn't care right now. And it wouldn't be the first time something weird has come up to me
when I was passed out  in my life.
