The Howling Moon short Story Part 1 By:Osyris Campos
The hardest part about moving into a new town is that you
don’t know anybody there nor are you familiar with anything
that awaits you to visit.
My name is Isaac Walker, I am a new resident in Blood
Hill, I am 21 years old and I'm just barely trying to
understand how the town works. I have no friends, no job or
relatives that live next to me. I am all alone and my only
wish is to have new friends, that's all. I was about to make
a sharp turn at an old movie theater while looking at my feet
when all of the sudden I collided with an unknown figure. “
Oh jeez, I am so sorry-” My voice stopped in my throat when I
looked up to see a hooded figure wearing a crimson cloak in
the middle of sunset. I couldn’t see their face, only a pale
white chin. I was about to apologize again when all of the
sudden the figure gave me a black envelope and walked away
without saying a word. I was completely baffled by the
current events that occurred and I was a little nervous to
open the envelope but I did. It said, “ You are invited to
the Blood Hill cult party, meet at the abandoned church on Oak street at 9pm sharp tonight”. I was shocked that this was
from a cult group and I debated whether to come or not, but
after a few minutes of just standing at the same place I
decided I deserve a little adventure in my life.
After I had finished making myself look better and more
casual for the party, I made my way to this huge old looking
black church. At first I thought I made a wrong turn but
after a while of looking around, I heard muffling music
coming from the church. I knocked on the door and it was
slowly opened by two hooded figures that allowed me to walk
in after saying “ Welcome, young stranger”. After I walked
inside, I was met with a surprise. The crowd looked nothing
like a cult, they were just young people having fun,
drinking, talking and having a blast. Even though everyone
was having fun, I felt out of place like I didn't belong here
and I felt nervous as well. All of the sudden a tall and
beautiful tomboy wearing a black vest, white button shirt,
black necktie, black pants and converse sneakers stood on top
of a crate with a microphone and spoke. “ Welcome my
friends,” she said with a soft but mature feminine voice.
“Thank you for gathering tonight under the open sky. I see
many familiar faces, and perhaps a few new ones.” She continued on with her speech saying that just being human
leads to weakness and isolation and she wants to change that
and bring everyone together to heal the world from its
cruelty and darkness and she hopes that most of everyone here
is on her side and she would like to share a gift to bring
everyone together. She suddenly snapped her fingers and more
hooded figures came around all corners carrying metal trays
with glasses that had some sort of glowing crimson beverage
inside them. Everyone took one including the tomboy leader.
“To a better future,” she said into the microphone , her
voice dropping into a soft, mesmerizing purr. “ To our
evolution. Enjoy, everyone.” She finished her speech and
everyone drank the glowing beverage. I hesitated at first but
as soon as the glass touched my lips everyone around me
started acting strange and stopped myself from drinking it.
The man on my left gasped and dropped his glass shattering on
the floor and he fell on his knees clutching his stomach and
groaned like he was having a bad stomach ache and the woman
beside me dropped her glass as well and clutched her head in
agony. I was confused and I threw the drink away thinking it
had something to do with the people’s reactions, then the
real horror began. I watched as a young man fell on fours and started growling and the worst part was that I heard his
bones cracking and thick, coarse fur began to tear through
his skin, his fingers lengthened to jagged black claws, his
muscles expanded like he was on steroids but they kicked in
faster and everyone else had the same reaction. It didn’t
take long for me to realize they were turning into werewolves
because the young man I was watching had become a giant
muscular wolf with grey fur, sharped teeth, huge claws and he
howled so loud it made me feel a chill in my bones. After
that, I backed up to the entrance watching everyone in front
of me turning into werewolves and all of the sudden I heard a
soft voice behind me. “You didn’t drink.” I turned around
only to see the beautiful tomboy right in front of me with a
soft and unbothered smile on her face. “ Hello, my name is
Charlotte, it is very nice to meet you, my new king.” “
King?!” I said with a frightened but confused tone. “ Yes, I
chose you to be my king. There's no need to be scared, you're
a part of our pack.” She said with a gentle voice. “ Me?! No
way, you all are monsters!” “ Monsters? I would like to
think of us as a new evolved species.” I turned to run out
through the entrance when out of nowhere two muscular
werewolves blocked it and didn’t allow me to leave. “ Now, now, let's not overwhelm our new king, he just needs time to
process this new reality. Let him go.” She said in a calm and
playful tone. The werewolves backed away and allowed me to
leave and I ran out and headed to a busy street to lose them.
After that I managed to make it home and lock all of my doors
and windows and I did not sleep a wink that night . I Just
hope this nightmare ends.
