Die forever. What did she mean by that? Wasn't death already eternal? It was how Calvin knew that the white wolf that had likely saved his life wasn't Snow even though he felt like Snow. The demon wasn't real - but Dawn Wind had said it was.
Confusion intermingled with the fear he was feeling. Was the thing real or not? Could he banish it with nothing more than a thought. Those thoughts were soon interrupted when he saw the demon with a talon through a wolf. It was Dawn Wind. A claw had impaled the wolf and it stuck out the other end. The demon dropped the wolf to the ground. Dawn Wind struggled to stand, but was unable to and he slumped back down to the ground.
”NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!”
Calvin screamed in fury. The confusion and fear changing instantly to anger as the wolf rose in him. He even forgot about the burning pain in his chest as he charged at the demon. He dropped the bow again and didn’t draw the daggers that had appeared at his belt. He didn’t need them. He didn’t want them. As the wolf took over, he changed into wolf form and launched himself at the demon. The two rolled across the ground and Calvin attacked aiming for the throat.
The creature seemed to decrease in size and swung at Calvin with claws. Calvin backed away, and circled his prey waiting for the right moment to strike. When Calvin saw it, he pounced and tackled the creature once more, biting for the things throat. Calvin felt his teeth sink in to the demon’s flesh and felt the warm blood. The taste was putrid, but Calvin didn’t care. He just wanted the thing to die.
And with that, it quivered and disappeared. Calvin reverted back to human form after a few moments when the fury calmed down enough for Calvin to regain control. He returned wearing his normal jeans, but no shirt – the wound still ached. He ran to Dawn Wind and picked him up. The wolf was still holding on to life.
”Stargazer…for me the Dream ends…
The wolf fell limp in his arms and Calvin could feel the hot tears streaming down his face. He looked up and saw the white wolf gazing at him. Wolf and man met eyes before the wolf spoke to him – telling him to be wary of the woman with him. It then turned, and left the clearing. Calvin sat still, holding the corpse of his friend.
