Chapter 7 - Moonlight absorbstion?

" Yes I live in your mind, oh and by the way, you have a lot of depressing thoughts everywhere in there, it's pretty cramped," The wolf said in a collected tone.

" Whoa, I can't believe I have some kind of mythical creature in my mind, and it's the same one I dreamt of," Ethan said with a blown away exppression.

What was happening right now, if it was all a dream then he really didn't want to wake up, he feels like he's one of those protagonists in the fantasy novel he reads. This is just too awesome!

" You're not in a dream, and yes, to you it is awesome, but to me it's as if I'm a caged animal inside a depressing prison," the black wolf said with an angered look.

" Hey, how did you get inside my mind?" Ethan asked curiously, even if it was due to the black blood, how was that even possible?

The wolf stared at Ethan strangely, it looked as if it was trying to say Ethan was an idiot," what do you mean, how did I get into your mind. It's because of the my blood you idiot," 

" But how is that possible, if I remember correctly, when you fought against that giant, the blood you bled out was red," Ethan said with a confused look.

"That's because that's what your belief is, imagine you were in a world where blood is actually purple, if you had that same dream, the colour of blood that I would have bled would have also been purple," The wolf said in an explanatory manner.

With a look of understanding, Ethan said," Oh, I get it now. So by the way, how do you get out of my body? Cause there is no way I'm going to have you chit chatting with me for the rest of my life," 

"You are hosting the great and powerful Night God, and here you are saying you want me out of your body? In my time, everyone would wish to see me with their own eyes, but you have the chance to host me, and here you are squandering this heavenly opportunity, what kind of person are you?" The wolf said with both a proud and disgusted look.

" Oh I didn't know that you wanted to stay in my body for the rest of eternity, how sweet. Come on dude, there's no way I'm letting some wild animal live in my head. I have a lot of thoughts in there if you didn't notice," Ethan said with a sarcastic look.

" Are you crazy! Do you know who I am! Even if you host me, I can still hurt you bad enough to keep you on your bed for a year, as long as you're alive, nothing would happen to me," the wolf said, as it bared it's fangs at Ethan, showing him that he shouldn't be messed with by a small human.

Seeing the ferocious fangs of the huge beast, Ethan gulped down a mouthful of saliva in fear.

What was he thinking speaking that way? He literally saw the same wolf kill thousands of beasts, and he was just a puny human with nothing more than a sore fist. He just going to get ripped to pieces.

Seeing the fear on Ethan's face, the wolf smiled in satisfaction and thought 

_ I still got it, even after seventy million years_

" Ok I'm sorry, but I do have one question," Ethan said.

" What is it?" The wolf said in a dark voice.

" How did your blood manage to get into the test tube in my parents lab, and how are you even alive?"

" Good question, and the answer to that is....I don't know." The wolf said with a smile.

" You don't know? How's that even possible?" Ethan said in a confused manner. 

How could you not know how you got into someone's test tube.

" I mean I don't know, I thought I died, then I found myself in a dark space, with the only entertainment I had was counting the amount of time that passes, it was excruciatingly boring. How am I supposed to know how I got into a test tube, but I do know what to do next." The wolf said in a serious manner.

" What do you want to do?" Ethan said, as he felt the air tense.

" You are now my host, and since you said my blood got into your body, it means you now have the blood of a powerful werewolf god inside your body, meaning you are now half human, half werewolf," the wolf said in an incredibly serious manner.

" Wait what?! You mean to tell me that I'm now a creature of the night?!" Ethan had a shocked exppression all over his face as the revelation hit him hard. He was no longer normal.

" Yes Ethan, you are now a creature of the night, and the host of a god. But you're not yet a complete creature of the night," the wolf said with a serious smile.

" What do you mean by that? How am I not a werewolf yet?" Ethan said with a confused look.

" I mean that you haven't yet absorbed your first strand of moonlight," the wolf said with a nostalgic smile, as he recalled when he first absorbed his first moonlight energy.

" My first strand of moonlight? What's that?" Ethan asked curiously.

" You see, for a werewolf to be able to use his powers, he needs to absorb the energy flowing out of the moon and unto the earth."

" A regular human won't be able to sense such energy, same goes for any other creature affiliated with the day. Only creatures of the night are able to sense the energy from the moon,"

" For someone like you, you first of all have to connect to a world stream to be able to even think about sensing the moonlight energy," the wolf said with an explanatory look. He was trying to break down every detail Ethan needs to know.

Ethan was nodding in an understanding manner, as he said," I get now, but I have one question, what the hell is a world stream?" Ethan said with a sheepish smile, as he scratched his head.
