"Happiness comes when you least expect it, and goes when you begin to take it for granted."
I didn't have anything planned for this entry, I'm afraid. So for your entertainment, I give you the opening sequence to a fanfiction I'm writing based in an alternate universe to the television show Teen Wolf. You don't need to be a fan of the show to know what's going on, since I've basically taken someone else's characters and put them into my own little world (hence the term "fanfiction") and have added a few characters that are only mentioned in the show but never shown (either because they're not around or have passed) so they're really my own in a way.
If anyone happens to be interested in reading it in full (the first chapter is the only one completed), I'll let you know when I post it online somewhere!
Chief Nowak looks to the sky, watching the tones become darker as the sun goes down beyond the horizon. Nodding to himself, he glances back to his daughter and her husband, as well as Alpha Hale and his wife. With a smile, he moves to stand before his village and their guests.
“We are honored to have the Hale Pack join us on this night of the Wolf Moon,” he begins, the wrinkles in his face becoming much more prominent when he smiles. “Like every coming of Wolf Moon, we are grateful for the kindness of the Hale Pack and graciously welcome them into the village to celebrate another twelve moons of peace.”
While he continues on, John Stilinski spots something red in the distance near the edge of their village and sighs. Irena glances to him with a quirked brow, a smirk of amusement on her lips. “Stiles is going off into the trees again…”
She chuckles silently, turning her gaze to find where their son and his friend have disappeared beyond the tree line. “Let the two have their fun.”
John wishes to argue, but Chief Nowak had gained his attention once more. It was always hard to ignore a man of his charisma, especially since the man had given John the opportunity to even be with Irena.
Beacon Village is a small cluster of people when you really get down to it; very few people in town didn’t know your name, and even then those people were just too young or too old to really commit it to memory. However, they are the largest compared to their neighbors—the term ‘neighbor’ being used loosely, as the village is surrounded by forest on all sides with a cliff some ways off to the North-West. Though the entire population knew the only reason Beacon Village is home to many people was due to their agreement with the Hale Pack of Werewolves just West of them, beyond the trees.
Very few really remembered what the agreement was, even though Chief Nowak’s family had been on good terms with Alpha Hale’s for decades. Some assumed it was simply a land issue—Beacon Village being on the edge of Hale Territory—while some of the more wild theories believed it had something to do with sacrifices—which is just silly, since there were never any disappearances. No matter the idea, it really was a simple territory agreement; Hale Territory stretches through the forest and that of Beacon Village in exchange for protection from an Omega attack of any kind.
Which is why Beacon Village was so lucky to have a large number of residents; Omega attacks were fairly common in their regions these days, and very few humans could fight such a creature—even if it was just a measly Omega. With a Werewolf pack around, villages tended to survive longer, though the lone wolves still tried to breach into the village boundaries. Luckily for Beacon Village, the Hale Pack is also among the strongest packs in the region.
Most humans would never make an agreement such as this, however. Werewolves have the nasty reputation of being violent, ill-mannered beasts, and many of the humans feared them. The Hale Pack, of course, aren’t anything like these supposed ideals, and are quite the opposite of beastly, killing creatures. If anything, they are just as human as anyone else.
As it stands, there would be no reason for John to worry about the two boys running into the dark of the forest during a full moon—especially with the Hale Pack being so near.
