    BOY has a few problems. A few big, life-shattering, complicated kind of problems. Problem number one, he's recently found out that he's not entirely... human. A shapeshifter, in fact, and consequently thrown into the secret world of monsters and things you've only seen in your dreams. Number two, he's just now seventeen and getting ready to be a senior in high school; which means somehow he has to hide his identity. Number three, there is a century long war going on between Vampires, Werwolves and Shapeshifters. Number four, Luna Silver, BOYS' best friend, is the prophecised 'wild power' said to bring an end to the war.

    CAUGHT UP IN CIRCLES, CONFUSION IS NOTHING NEW.

    But that's not all. Luna is completely unaware of her so called 'fate.' The Vampires and Shapeshifters, and Werwolves are all after her, though for very different reasons. The Werwolves believe that Luna's power will end not only their war between Vampires, Shapeshifters and werwolves, but also their secret lifestyle. Basically, they want to rule the world. Vampires on the other hand, are fighting to keep the world from falling under the Werwolves's command. They look for the 'wild power' to help to destroy all Werwolves. The Shapeshifters are more neutral in a way. They search for Luna to keep their world secret and to keep the 'wild power' safe from the war and to eventually end it. That's where BOYS' life is turned upside down, inside out, and every other direction imaginable.

    FLASHBACKS, WARM NIGHTS, ALMOST LEFT BEHIND.

    The Vampires have managed to find Luna first, however, until her eighteenth birthday, her powers are inactive. She is to live a normal life, guarded in secret at all times. When the Shapeshifters decide to side with the Vampires, they realize something crucial: BOY, Luna's very best friend, is in fact just celebrated his seventeenth birthday, meaning he will soon transition into his true wolf self. Over the Summer after Junior year he leaves on 'vacation' with his 'uncle', which was code for being trained and taught all about what was to be his new life. He left a lanky young boy, and now back in time for the school year to start, BOY shocks everyone. He's grown four inches, and put on at least thirty pounds of muscle. Perfect bodyguard material. Luna's bodyguard, to be precise.

    IF YOU FALL, I WILL CATCH YOU, I'LL BE WAITING.

    So now, BOY has a few more problems. First, there's man kind's fate in the hands of an inexperienced, newborn shapeshifter. He has to somehow manage to keep Luna alive (with the help of various vampires and other shapeshifters) yet in the dark about the situation. He has to go on with life as if everything were normal, but remain on guard and ready to strike at all times. Homework, football games, school dances, the whole nine yards. All the while he is to remain covert and completely composed. And as if life isn't difficult enough, he has another problem;

    TIME AFTER TIME.

    BOY thinks he might be in love...
    with his best friend.​

    •Werwolves and Shapeshifters are NOT the same thing. They are both wolf-like in a way but there are differences in this particular story. Werwolves have no control when they change from human to wolf. When the moonlight shines, they have to change and they cant turn it on and off all willy nilly. Silver causes them serious pain and does weaken them for a while but it wears off and will not kill them. They have superhuman strength all the time and they have heightened sences all the time as well.
    Shapeshifters chose when they can shift and emotions like anger can make them change unwillingly if they aren't careful. Shapeshifters are normally short tempered because of their powers but when they are in a human state they have slightly heightened senses but not so much as werwolves. Silver has absolutely no effect on them and they dont have to wait until the night time to shift. Shapeshifters have a longer life span then werwolves to by nearly 20 years and they dont age all that quickly. In their wolf forms, they can hear eachothers thoughts. Werwolves cant to that.
    Legends say that Shapeshifters and Werwolves were once the same race but after two brothers who wanted to be alpha of the 'pack' began to feud and one brother won, he banished the other brother from the pack and took away his power to change with the rest of the pack.
    Betrayed, the exiled brother was fated to walk the world alone in shame of his loss. But when his wife ran away from home to find him and their first son was known as the world's first Shapeshifter.
    There are many legends like this one that could possibly explain how the werwolves and shapeshifters are so similar and yet so different but none know for sure. ;)

    Luna Silver
    It was midnight but Luna was still awake, sitting on her bed, leaning against the window right next to it and staring at the full moon outside and the patterns it’s reflection made in the lake she could see from there. The distorted vision of the moon and stars in the waves captivated her tired eyes, but unfortunately let her mind wander. Maybe it was just nerves for her first year of high school, or the strange dreams that seemed to attack her mind every night for the past few nights that kept her awake now. But deep down she knew it was more than that, she was nervous about going to school again tomorrow and seeing him again. BOY hadn‘t written to her all summer! Not since that last week of school when he was acting so strangely. He was being so distant and he always looked on edge, like something was bothering him. That wasn‘t like him and it had worried her a lot. She remembered trying to ask him what was wrong but he seldom answered her calls at the time. Then, there was that last day of school. He walked her home from school, like usual. Usually, the two of them would have talked the whole way home about just about anything. Luna had hoped that the last day of school would raise BOYs spirits just a little bit but he was still the same. He had tried to smile at her attempts at light hearted humor but it hadn‘t helped any. Then, when they got to the house, he stopped at the porch and told her that he would be gone all summer and that he probably wouldn‘t be able to keep in touch with her. She tried to get him to spill about where he was going but all she got was vague answers and awkward silences. And then, he was just gone.

    The next morning, he wasn’t at the beach where the two usually met to hang out on their free weekends. His cell phone had been disconnected and he wouldn’t answer any of her emails. At first, she was a bit upset about the absence of her friend. He was pretty much the only person in their smallish senior class that she got along with that well. She was hurt that he didn’t trust her enough to let her know where he was going. And she always wondered if he was in some kind of danger. She tried to make excuses for herself to explain where on earth he could have gone on such short notice. Maybe he was just trying to be a pain and make her worry, if so then he would have texted her and let her know he was ok eventually… right? Or maybe he was in real danger, like he was in the witness protection program or had done something really stupid, like joined the CIA or something.
    Despite how hard she had tried to reason with herself why BOY was acting so strangely, nothing was making any sense and her emotions toward BOY had turned into annoyance and confusion. What could he have possibly done that would make him in big enough trouble that he would just up and leave without telling even her where he was going?! BOY was a bit of a trouble maker sometimes but he was smarter than that at least. Was he just screening her calls because he was tired of her? Maybe she just smelled weird or acted too clingy. That would explain his absent attitude just before the random disappearance.

    The fact that her arm was freezing from the cold window pulled her back to the present. She shivered and shifted her weight away from the window, now leaning on the wall behind her and rubbing her numb arm to bring back circulation. With a sigh, she thought about school tomorrow. What would happen if she actually did see her long departed best friend tomorrow at school? Would he even care?

    She wasn’t sure when she had actually fallen asleep amidst her wandering thoughts but it seemed like she had only just barely closed her eyes for a second before she heard a strangely familiar sound pulling her back out of the deep. As she gained more consciousness, she realized it was the radio that she had set to turn on at six o’ clock in the morning as her alarm. She opened her eyes, her back ached from sleeping still leaning against the wall behind her. With a light yawn, Luna reached out her hand and hit the power button on the alarm before she stood up from her bed. She could hear her dad already up downstairs, he would probably be gone before she could have time to get down the steps though. He had to be at work at seven and he really never did wait to say goodbye to her in the mornings save for special occasions.
    Luna was ready for school in no time at all. She pulled her hair back into a ponytail and tried her best to do her eye makeup in a way to hide the bags under her eyes that were a dead giveaway that she hadn’t slept much at all last night. Just as she had predicted, Luna heard the front door to the house close and then complete silence again as her dad left home and drove away in his old truck. But she wasn’t very far behind her dad. She pulled her bag over her shoulder, it was pretty light for now seeing as she didn’t have any school books yet. All she had in there was her pencil, her portfolio of drawings she made when she was bored, and a few notebooks.

    After taking one last look in the mirror and being at least slightly ok with her appearance, Luna opened the door and headed downstairs and out the front door. It was a bit chilly outside but not too bad. As she walked to the school, Luna tried to occupy her mind with other things besides BOY and her worries about what she would do if she saw him today. But normal cliché girl thoughts like, ‘I wonder if that one guy will like my hair today’, or thoughts about her love for the latest boy band didn’t come easy for her. ‘Ugh! I’m such a spaz!’ she thought to herself as she got to the end of the final block between her house and the school and then crossed the street and then entered the school yard.

    It was already packed with students, most of them people she recognized from the year before but she noticed a few new faces. That wasn’t exactly surprising, though. Their city was gradually growing over the years and consequently, so was their school. After two years of new students, Luna was pretty much use to the new faces on the first day of school. For a while, she just stood there trying to look around for a familiar face… anyone really, to walk up to so she wouldn’t look COMPLETELY oblivious. Though she wasn’t finding anyone she would like to talk to. With a reluctant shrug, Thea walked straight up the sidewalk toward the front doors. She was still maybe twenty minutes early for her first class to start but she could at least find her locker and stuff like that so she could occupy herself with something besides standing around here looking like a daft creep while staring everyone down looking for B- Anyone she recognized.

    Meanwhile she was thinking to herself that if she did in fact see BOY today, nothing would change. She would act normal around him, though of course she would demand to know what his problem was and give him a piece of her mind for stupidly not calling her all summer.

    She had just gotten up the second step in front of the double doors of the school when someone coming down the steps, who obviously hadn’t been watching where he was going either, bumped shoulders with her. The contact with the other person was surprisingly painful and strong, like she had run into a boulder or something! And at the speed she had been walking without realizing it, the impact had caused quite a reaction. With a startled gasp, Luna dropped her bag. Her pencil, portfolio, and notebooks fell out and her portfolio fell open, her drawings scattering across the steps.
    Luna quickly snatched up her drawings and portfolio before standing up and drawing a breath to snap at the person who had bumped into her. Her breath was cut short when she found herself face to face with a ghost from the past. The surprise caused her to drop her things yet again, and again they were scattered across the pavement but she wasn’t in as much of a rush to pick them up this time. She was a bit too distracted by the person in front of her. He had gotten a lot taller since she had last seen him. He had also gotten a lot bigger than her memory gave him credit for. Had she been seeing him from a longer distance, she probably wouldn’t have even recognized him. Heck she barely recognized him right now! But there was no mistaking his eyes or that slightly crooked smile. All the things she thought she would have told him all melted and blended in with her surprise. “BOY!?” she gasped.

    *lol I'll go through and edit BOY's name in there after someone names him.

    Minus that scratch. I only noticed that after i posted the IMG code for it.

    Kain Carder

    With a sigh, Kain threw another knife at his dart bord. Thunk. "Another bulls eye." He said in the voice of someone with their thoughts on other things. "How am i supposed to do this whole war thing?" He asked himself, throwing another knife. Wack, thump. He had bulls eyed again, knocking the first knife to the floor. "I mean, I'm just a kid still. I know I always told my parents to stop treating me like one, but I am. Now this?" He threw his last knife, knocking his second to the floor, along with the first. The third knife didn't stick so down it went to.

    He stood to go retrieve his throwing knives, a gift he had gotten on his last birthday from his dad. He placed them reverentially into their case, careful not to damage the handles while cursing himself for being so wasteful with them. One had developed a scratch during the game of darts he had played with them, and he wanted to kick himself. After putting them away, he decided to walk outside to clear his head. Maybe then he would be able to come up with something to say to the old guy who had told him about these powers of his.

    He walked out his dorm, and headed down stairs. He paid little attention to his surroundings. After all, he had walked these halls for several years now. The doors were now in front of him, and he hadn't been able to solve his problem, until a thought pushed its way into his head. It wasn't just the war, but another thing. Luna. His best friend, and also his budding romance for her. "Oh man. I'm so stupid!" He said to himself, pushing open the doors. He felt someone bump into him, and heard a crash. Coming back to earth, at warp speed, he found himself almost face to face with the person he had just spoken of. Luna Silver. "Oops. Sorry Luna. Let me give you a hand." He bent down and started to help her gather her books, silently saying to himself, "Clutz. Idiot. Moron."

    Dean Ackels

    Dean stood there, a door had never looked so menacing before. But it wasn't the door that sent chills down his spine. It was the thought of the reaction he would get from the person behind it. Luna Silver. Dean one and only best friend. He hadn't seen her all summer, and he had left without a proper explanation. But the worst part was he hadn't contacted her at all. She had every right to be annoyed or angry at him. And he would fully understand if she didn't want to be friends with him any longer.

    I guess ill leave it until tomorrow he thought. Dean then sighed and walked away from the house. After he arrived home he checked his emails again. There was plenty of unopened messages from Luna. Dean spent most of the night reading different emails of little situations Luna had gotten herself into in his absence. And at the end of every message was a little piece from her saying that she hopes he is doing well and hopes to hear from him soon. Dean's eyes grew sore from looking at the screen in a dark room for a extended period of time. He checked the time on the computer. "3.43am" he said aloud. Dean closed his mail and shut-down the computer. "Dang" Dean said as he looked as to why the computer hadn't shut down. Installing updates... 6 of 29. "Obnoxious machine" Dean said to himself. "I guess that's what I get for not using you all summer" HE laughed to himself.

    Dean walked into the kitchen to look for something small to eat. Empty. Dean grabbed his wallet from his bag that he had still to unpack and walked out the door. Dean was busy thinking of excuses that could justify him going out at near four am to go to a shop. Thinking of nothing Dean decided he would handle the situation if and when it presented itself. Dean arrived at the 24 hour shop that wasn't to far away from his house. At least he didn't think it was that far but he had never actually walked to it.

    "Picking up some last minute things for school?" The cashier asked as Dean walked into the store. "Last minute school stuff?" Dean repeated. "Yeah, doesn't school start again tomorrow?". "Oh, yeah. To be honest id completely forgotten about school" Dean said dumbly. "Haha" The cashier laughed. "That good of a summer huh?" "Yeah, something like that" Dean said with a smile before walking off to get some food and some notebooks and pens.

    Dean arrived home and opened up the closet were he would always leave his bag when he got home from school. "Still there" He said with a smile. After Dean had emptied the lasts years books onto the table be began flicking through them. He picked one up that he remembered he and Luna had been doodling in. He smiled as he read the small messages that she would write in his book and then get annoyed when he would try to write a response in hers.

    "Dean is that you?" Dean heard sleepily from up stairs. "Yeah Mom. Its me" He answered. "What are you doing at this flipping hour of the morning. Have you been to sleep yet?" "Yeah I just woke up. I guess im a little nervous for school" he lied. "Well try and go back to sleep. There's another two hours before school starts" "Ok Mom. Sleep well" Dean heard the footsteps of his mom walking back into her room. I guess I should get a little sleep Dean thought to himself. "Thank heavens that computers off" Dean joked to himself as he lay down on his bed. He thought of her one last time. Her smiling face been the last image he saw before he fell into a light sleep.

    Beep..Beep. "Ah damned alarm" Dean said as he threw it against the wall to make it stop. You see he used to have a regular alarm that you hit the off or snooze button, but when he broke it by throwing it against the wall his mother thought it would be wiser to get him an alarm that can't break. Dean was laying on his stomach and pushed himself up with his arms. That training really did pay off Dean smiled to himself. Dean got himself ready in a red t-shirt with a blue line the went down each hem of the shirt and a pair of jeans. After he had put his socks and shoes on he walked into the kitchen to see that his mother had set the books he had thrown out into a neat pile on the table. It wasn't strange that someone's mother wanted the house to be neat, but was strange was that everything had to be in perfect order. Smaller books on the top with the bigger ones on the bottom. Although since Dean had grown up with it he didn't take much notice to it.

    "I'm heading to school now Mom" Dean called to her from the table while putting the newly bought notepads and pens into his bag. "Have a good day hun" Deans mom said as she came to give him a hug. "My you certainly have grown over the summer haven't you" Dean gave one of his crooked smiles. "I remember you used to be able to put your arms fully around me" Dean joked. "And I also used to be able to look you in the eyes without straining my neck" She laughed. "Ill see you later mom" Dean said as he hugged her again and walked out the front door.
    I wonder if anyone will recognize me Dean thought to himself. He had changed quite abit since they had last seen him. And he was pretty sure there would be some new faces around. But of course they wouldn't recognize him. Well we'll soon find out Dean thought as he saw the school gates come into view.

    "Mister Ackels" Dean was brought back to reality from an unfamiliar voice. "You are to leave your bag at the front hall and report to the principals office upon arrival." "But I haven't arrived yet" Dean said noting that he was still outside of school property. "Don't get funny with me young man, Just do as your told" "Yes sir" Dean said jokingly as he saluted to the man. Dean walked upto the school gates and could feel eyes watching him. He figured it was because of the strange encounter he had just had. Dean climbed several sets of stairs to get to the principals office. He was on the floor were the principals office was located. He just needed to go down a corridor and then.... "Rahh!" Dean suddenly heard an attacker rushing him from behind. Instinctively Dean turned around hands already reaching out to grab his attacker. But the attacker was faster than Dean had anticipated and he was caught slightly by surprise, His attacker threw his fists down towards Dean head. Dean grabbed the man's fists with one hand directing them even further away from himself and drove his other hand into the attackers kidney. It didn't do much damage in the long run of things but it hurt a hell of alot in that instant that the attacker fell to the floor with his hands on his side. Dean heard another set of steps behind. Dean turned ready for another fight. "Well done, my student" Dean heard his teacher say. "Master?" Dean said surprise in his voice. "I did tell you I would be testing you to make sure you were up for the job" His master reminded him. "Then he is..." "The same man who told you to meet your principal. I was a little disappointed that you didn't see him for what he truly was, but you seem to be able to handle yourself well in a fight."" I was taught by the best" Dean smiled. "That you were." His master smiled. "But you haven't forgotten why you were trained do you?" "No, I know full well why I was trained." "Good, you must insure the protection of the Wild Power and..." "Her name is Luna" Dean said annoyed. "What?.. Oh, very well, It is your job to protect 'Luna' and make sure that she does not fall into the hands of the.." "Does not fall into the hands of the Werwolves, I know". Dean's master just smiled. "Well then good luck Dean, I'm sure ill be seeing you again." And just as quickly as they had come the man and his master were gone. "So I'm guessing that the principal didn't really want to see me?" Dean said sarcasticly.
    "Well, I guess ill go get my bag then" Dean said as he began descending all the stairs again.

    Dean was thinking about what his master had just said to him. He knew he had to protect Luna, Even if it meant giving up his life for her. And of course he was more than willing to do so. But what if she wouldn't forgive him for not contacting her all summer. It would be alot harder to protect her if she wanted nothing to do with him. But in any case..
    Deans thoughts were interrupted when someone knocked into him. At first he didn't see who it had been as they were already picking up there papers and it hadn't crossed his mind to see who it was. And since the person was almost done picking up the papers he figured he would apologize to them when they stood up again. Luna! Dean's mind shouted as he saw her face, and her papers fell once again. "Let me get those for you" Dean said with his crooked smile as he bent down to pick up her papers and folders. "I see your still doing your drawings" he said admiring some of her latest work.

    ... Eh? What ever I guess. I guess I wasn't able to fully grasp your plot. I suck at two person romance stories anyways. Peace, and good luck. I might take you up on that rp offer later.
