3rd person pov
Along the dark and barely lit road leading to beacon hills reserve a pitch black Camaro is cruising deeper into the forests. Inside the car is a young man of 16 years old with pitch black hair and a true athletes physique and stunning brown eyes.He follows the curving road up teh preserve before finally stopping gin front of the Beacon Hills sign. The youngman exited his car and then walked to his trunk and opened it. He then proceeded to start taking his shoes and socks off by his jeans and shirts leaving him in just his shorts. He then leaves teh trunk unlocked but closed and walks slowly into the forest disappearing from sight.
(KAI POV)
I'm full of energy. I'm absolutely ecstatic. I've always dreamed of running free and now my dreams about to come true in a way i never thought possible. It's almost scary knowing that soon ill be a literal wolf but its exhilarating all the same. I'm now 10 minutes away from my car and ready for my transformation. I take deep breaths to calm my mind, focusing on nothing but the forest and myself. Chanting in my mind that i am a wolf and this is my home, I begin to will the transformation to take place and after a few seconds i feel it. The feeling of my blood pumping frantically as my body changes, no pain, nothing but a smooth tingling that makes me feel that i am on a cloud. I feel my eyes closing forcefully for a second before opening them and my body has changed. My view is lower and my entire body feels weird, not uncomfortable tough just unusual. I then start to practise walking in my 4 legged form and it feels far easier, almost insitinctual like muscle memory somehow. After a few minutes i can walk like a normal wolf and so i make my way to my car at breakneck speeds. The ten minutes of walking turns into a minute of running and as i look in my cars rear view mirror i see just how majestic and beautiful i am. Like my car my furr is pitch black and my muscles underneath show that im a true apex predator among my kind. My eyes stay the same yellow but if before they were dazzling now they're blazing like the sun. Satisfied, i dart off into the forest at my top speed, nothing but a blur as I streak through the night. No fear,no worries, no human problems at all just me, my energy and the truest form of freedom possible. I feel so alive. I feel like a true wolf. My senses at full display as i can animals running and leaves rustling, the smell of oak, trees and animal meat leading me to prey. I let my instincts take over i begin hunting. I smell my prey. A majestic stag full of vitality and strength, the strongest prey for the strongest predator and like any predator i slowly close in on the stags position. Slowing down as not to alert it i circle around to ambush it when it leaves the stream. I hunch down and wait, not single sound escapes me. The stag, fully hydrated now, begins to walk in my direction and once it's close enough I pounce with supernatural speed and latch my jaws on its throat before i rip it out bloodily before clawing at it to make sure its dead. Satisfied with my kill i eat some before my leaving to run more as i still have lots of energy left from my first transformation. I then spent the rest of the night touring the beautiful beacon hills woods and hours later when my excess energy is gone and im in full control i do the only thing that makes sense. I howl to let any supernatural know that i am a creature to be feared and that i am here. I then dash back to my car and transform back into human and get dressed before driving home and i fall asleep with a massive smirk on my face remembering my run. Unaware that by announcing my presence, that a currently burned comatose werewolf plans to make me join him when he finally has the strength to move by the next full moon in a months time.
Next day at 12 O'clock.
I wake up and just lay in my bed for a few moments, vividly remembering my run and hunt,the adrenaline and freedom of running free but also the slight disgust that i ate part of an animal but i can blame that on my instincts be ridiculously increased since it was my first transformation. Though now that its over i can fully say that when i transform next i wont do it again, plus no one got hurt and not once did i ever feel like attacking anybody so that's a massive positive, though I don't think that'll be the same at the full moon for obvious reasons. But that's a month away and i already know what i need to do next. I don't want anyone to find out by scent that im a wolf so its time to learn a trick from the series. Hiding my scent. By achieving a certain level of control i can mask my wolf scent with human scent rendering me indistinguishable from a human, and i know just where to start though its a bit morbid.
((((MINOR SELF HARM WARNING))))))
I walk to my bathroom and lock the door. I then flick my right hand claws out and rest them slowing on my forearm. I hate every second of this, knowing what this acts does and the effect it has on people. The only reasons i even think of doing this are because i know mentally im healthy and that im not doing it for relief, the fact I'll heal in seconds and that by learning to control my abilities I'll be able to stay alive longer against what's coming. Using my claw i make a light cut on my left forearm roughly 8-9 cm long and just enought to draw blood. I then focus on my body healing and what it does. It heals in seconds without a single drop of blood being spilt. I then repeat the action focusing on how my body heals and what it does. A few minutes later im able to stop my body healing as fast and with each try the time elongates until a minute passes and the cut still hasn't healed, i then will my suppression to lift and watch as my body heals automatically. The first step is done. I can stop cuts and bruises from healing but i know for a fact that broken bones and worse injuries are impossible for now as the pain would override my concentration plus i need to be able to do instinctually. No more injuries required now as now that i know how to stop whatever its is that heals me( Just gonna call it healing energy from now on) I just need to locate and feel where it comes from before i can redistribute it to my body. It should be simple since if my body heals automatically then healing energy clearly works on its own in fixed paths so i just need to create extra ones for it to seep into. Once done the cycle should correct itself and ill never have to consciously hide my scent as like healing, the energy should heal the supernatural parts responsible for my wolf scent since it's impossible for any wolf to hide both human and wolf scents.
(( Made this up using Brett from season 4 as The Mc'call pack were able to smell the human part of him and not the wolf side which is how he was able to hide from them and Derek explained that some wolves have masteries over their bodies allowing them to hide from anyone trying to find them. I don't know whether this skill requires being born with or learning so im just gonna say that its both but it can take years for wolves to learn from scratch, the only reason he can do it so fast is cos of the ROB knowledge helping him otherwise it would've taken months even with the knowledge. Basically ROB gave him the instructions so all he needs to is follow them which compared to other wolves who need to make their own instructions from scratch and then follow them and hope they did it right. Plus he has only learned the instructions how but hasn't done it yet and it will take a few weeks to do so he's not too broken just lucky.))))) Back to story…
I can feel the healing enegry flowing with my blood ethereally, there but not physically there are the same time nullifying all the minuscule bacteria that i come into contact with, keeping my body in optimum condition. I just need to trace it to its origin, but with how hard it is to keep track of it will take me weeks to do so. I can only hope im done by next full moon. Now though its time to train my senses and how to fight using them as well as my claws.
3 Weeks later
There's a week left until the full moon and I've made lots of progress on hiding my scent. I've located where it comes from and I can't help but slap myself for my stupidity. It's generated by my heart beat, no clue how or why but since the heart is responsible for pumping blood cycles it kinda makes sense. I've already started forcing my enegry to spread out but its way harder then I through as if push too much in one direction it puts my body into a state like a panick attacks while it goes back to its default setting meaning i gotta start the whole thing again. Not great, not great at all. It's just like all the myths say about supernatural, balance is key. So that's what im doing. I spread the energy extremely thin, almost minsicule to the parts responsible for scent. This alone took 10 days to be stable enough to not cause my body to restart. Now its present in my body but does nothing since it like 1/1000 the strength i need it to be. But that was the difficult part. Now its pretty easy as all i need to do i focus more and more minsucle clumps of healing enegry to each part and its strengthening drastically with each one. With how my scent has changed the past 4 days i can say for sure it'll be done in a week give or take a day. If before my scent was 50% wolf-50% Human then now its 25% wolf 50% human.
(((For clarification on how this is possible let me explain. All shifters have both human and animal scents mingled together. Like if you walk down a street and smell two different distinct smells like sweet food and spicy food. That's how there scent is. Now if u remove one of the smells you feel like that the one remains is stronger and that there is more of it when this is a just a sensory illusion. The amount of scent in teh air is the same but because one has disappeared you think there's more of the one remains. Using this, for the purpose of the story only, there's is no fixed amount of scent person should have on average. So the amount of scent he has remains the same so he's indistinguishable from a human.)))
5 Days later
The full moon is in two days and i can feel it already. A primal urge to hunt and adrenaline building up inside me. Though since i know what to do to get through the full moon safely my behaviours the same and despite getting closer to the full moon the urge is wreaking. As long as i focus on my anchor I'll be fine.I hope. On the bright side my wolf scents gone completely.I'm practically human now. I've also been working out the past month and speed healing+ already athletic physique+ Super strength equals every gym bros dream. I look like an absolute unit of athletic capabilties. School starts in 3 days and im all prepared!
