Teen Wolf :- A Wolf's Journey.

Today is Saturday, today is the first game. I am excited about it… I'm also excited about what happens after the game. From the journal I read Thomas could control his shifting better after he had done the deed. And since he is the only source of information I have. There is nothing I could do except mimic the stuff he did.

I was a little skeptical of it but there is no real downside to it. Mom was excited to see my first match although she didn't know much about lacrosse. I had already told her that if we won we were going out. She wasn't that happy but allowed it since we were going in a group. The match was later today so I still had a lot of free time, so I decided to go and train in the forest.

I had packed my gear with me already. I would just go directly to school after I was done training. I parked my car near the reserve and was walking in the forest and unlike most days today felt a little special maybe because today was also supposed to be a full moon or something.

I reached the cave and Ashley was missing from the cave, I was a little disappointed. I had brought her some treats… I used to play with her, she helped me behave a little more like a canine, if I am being honest. I was getting better at using the body. I exhaled and put my bag on the branch of the tree and started to strip and started my shifting as Thomas called it.

As I was transforming I noticed something was a little off today, the transformation process was a lot faster, I could easily trigger my shifting. My emotions were heightened. The transformation process time was cut in more than half. I finished my transformation in 21 seconds.

As I stood in my wolf form I tried to see if there were any more changes or have I lost some amount of control? Turns out I didn't cause I was able to form such thoughts. But there were some changes. I had an excess of energy in my body. I tried running and I was unbelievably faster than normal.

If I were to run at these speeds I can reach my home in 3 or something minutes. I tested it and I would say it was around 3-4 minutes. I also tried my strength and it had also increased. I concluded that during full moons I gain additional strength but I am also easily irritable.

I shifted around 18 times today, it was during the time of twilight I decided to stop. I transformed back and I put on my clothes, I gave a final look around and Ashley was still not there. I hope she is okay… the woods are filled with weird stuff. I took my bag and drove to school.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I parked my car and headed to the locker room. The parking lot was starting to get filled. I walked into the school and got to the locker room. I saw most of the people were here except for Scott and Stiles. I was still holding up okay. I was confident that I would be alright. But if anything went wrong at any point I am tagging out… I am not there.

I walked up to my locker and was changing and someone slapped my back, I turned around to see it was the coach, and I was happy at my control. He smirked and said, "So how you doin' big guy? Everything alright?"

I nodded and said, "Yeah, I feel good."

He smiled and rubbed his hand and said, "Perfect, so listen since Jackson has a busted shoulder I would need you to play his position." I looked at him to check if he was joking and he was serious. I asked him, "You sure he would flip out, man."

He shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's just for one game." But then he grabbed my shoulder but there was a height disparity so he looked at me. I rolled my eyes and squatted a little and he said, "You do good and it can be permanent… if I am being honest with you. He is kind of a prick. He thinks of himself above the team, I have been looking for his replacement and now I have 2. If I am being honest with you… Scott isn't cut out for it. He is too unreliable." He then looked me in the eyes and said, "You do good out there today and your future is green as your eyes. You understand?"

I nodded and said, "Yeah."

He smiled and gently slapped my face and said, "great now, get ready the game will start in half an hour." My heart started to beat faster again but I took in some deep breaths and remembered the calming stuff about the moon and Ashley and I was fine again.

As I was getting ready I saw Scott coming in and he looked on edge. He was actually looking a lot like me during the first full moon. He was getting ready and I started to wear my gear and I heard, "Try and pass the ball to me and only me, not to that freak or to that loser." It was hard to try and not to maul this bitch but I took deep breaths and I controlled myself.

I guess it was the same for Scott as well. After that I saw Stiles coming in and I heard Scott say, "Gonna try and convince me not to play?"

Stiles said trying to convince him, "I just hope you know what you're doing."

Scott sounded anxious and said, "If I don't play I lose first line…. and Allison."

Stiles tried to rebuke, "Allison isn't going anywhere! And it's one game that you REALLY don't need to play."

Scott snapped at Stiles and said, "I want to play! I want to be on the team! And I want to go out with Allison! I want a semi-…. freaking normal life, do you get that?

Stiles softly said, "I get it." he sat down next to him and put his gear aside and said, "Just try not to worry too much while you're out there, okay? Or get too angry?"

Scott listened to him and said, "I got it."

Scott hangs his head while going back to his cleats as he nods. "I got it."

Stiles then went on to ramble about things not to think about but all they did was agitate Scott more "Don't think about Allison being in the stands. Or that her father's trying to kill you. Or that Derek's trying to kill you. Or the girl he killed. Or that YOU might kill someone. If a hunter doesn't kill you first! I'm sorry."

And now I was a little worried about Chris and stuff. I sighed and put on rest of my gear and walked out the locker room and went on to the field. I saw my mom out on the bleachers and she cheered me on but unfortunately she was sitting next to Chris and next to Chris was Allison and Lydia they also cheered and I waved at all of them and took in deep breaths and sat on the bench.

Jackson looked at me and smirked and I just wanted to bash his head in, that twat. The anger was getting amplified and I need to calm myself so I closed my eyes and I breathed and thought about calming stuff. It was hard with all the stuff going around but after what I listened helped me immensely.

Coach said "Jackson! Come here." He walked up to the coach and the coach grabbed his shoulder and asked, "How's the shoulder?"

Jackson nodded and said, "It's fine"

Coach squinted and asked him, "Feel any pain?"

Jackson shrugged and said, "Nah, not really."

Bobby smiles and holds up his right fist. "What if I gave it a big ol Punch. Would y- would you feel any pain then?"

He admitted and asked, "Maybe, why?"

Coach sighed and said, "Today, I need you to play on the defensive line, I am giving your position to Finn for today." I felt an unbelievable amount of satisfaction and before he could say anything the coach said, "It's just until your shoulder gets fixed and besides you are still the captain… Now I want you to relax for today, do not try to push yourself."

Jackson nodded and grunted and the coach smiled and slapped his helmet. Jackson was pissed and I was unbelievably happy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The game is about to start and we win the toss, Jackson says we are talking on the right side. We take up positions. I take a look at the stands and I see mom with the handicam and I feel a little embarrassed and happy at the same time. I also see the expression on Lydia's face darken when she sees that I am playing in Jackson's position but she still keeps face.

The referee blows the whistle and the game is on. As soon as the whistle goes off the guy in front of me tries to overpower me but is unsuccessful. I swiftly take the ball and run for it, two guys in front of me with a long stick trying to block me. I could have jumped over them or done something flashy but that isn't a good play. So I swirl and take a few steps back. I see Scott is free. I passed him the ball.

He catches it easily and runs past the defense like its' nothing, I follow behind him. He gets blocked but instead of passing, he jumps over two guys and makes a shot. An incredible shot, almost impossible. This guy is an idiot. I look at the bleachers and everyone cheers and the coach is happy but one guy wasn't Chris, he was looking at Scott and I felt a shiver run down my spine. I saw my mom was happy and was cheering me on and I felt like doing a little better.

We take positions again and the whistle goes off again and again. I take the ball easily, but this time I try to run a bit faster, a guy tries and blocks me. I duck a little and twirl around him and get out of the bind. I made it closer to the goal and then I took a step back, twist my waist and throw the ball with little effort and it shots like an arrow and it curves around the corner and goes in.

The crowd was impressed and they cheered, although it was impressive it wasn't showy or fancy as Scott but it was good. My mom cheered for me and I saw Chris and he looked at me and gave a little bop. I guess he doesn't suspect me.

The match continued and we scored a lot of points. I made a few passes to Scott because if I did we would have scored like 80 something points in the first half. I scored two more goals, Scott did three and Jackson was standing behind, defense wasn't needed that much. I also let the other team score like two points in the first half. Otherwise it would be a little too easy.

During half time. I was drinking some gatorade while the coach was giving us plays, but something was bothering me. It was Scott, the moon was at its apex now and I saw little changes in him. He had stopped talking and hadn't removed his helmet.

I walked up to the coach and I said, "Hey coach, mind if we replace Scott with Jackson." It got their attention and Coach looked at me and said, "What are you high you two are our sure fire way of winning so… NO."

I sighed and Jackson looked at me. The referee signaled the end of half time and we took positions. He blew the whistle and the game started. I took the ball and tried to keep it on me, but the defense speared me with the stick and I lost the ball and it went in the air. Referee blew the whistle to stop but Scott jumped off of an opponent and caught the ball in mid air and started to run but no one stopped him, he made an easy goal but it didn't count.

I was annoyed at him and I exhaled and the guy in front of asked, "What the fuck is wrong with that guy?"

I shrugged my shoulders and said, "I don't know man."

We got a free penalty shot and Coach told me to take it. At this point I was also a little affected by the moon. I got the ball and I took in some deep breaths and I looked at the goal post and I made the shot and it went in easily. We were now 6-2.

Referee whistled and we went back to our positions and the game started again, but the coach had agreed to push Scott to the midfield while bringing Jackson forward. The match from that point went a little easy on my mind. In the end the match ended with 10-3 I made four points, Jackson made two and Scott made four points. But at the end of the match Scott was loosing it, I was able to hear his low growls and he scared one of the opponents in passing him the ball.

As soon as the match ended the players picked me up on shoulders and we celebrated, Jackson sat that out but looked a little happy, Scott ran out the field as quickly as he could and I saw Allison going after him. I was worried so I got off there but I was ambushed by mom and she started to hug me and generally smother me with love and affection. "Oh, I knew you would do great today, oh I am so proud of you."

I said, "Mom, please let go. I am suffocating." She let go of me and I said, "I need to go and take a shower but I will see you later at home, after the party, alright?"

She pouted and said, "Alright, but remember to come home early." I quickly gave a hug and said, "Love you mom, bye." I ran to the locker room hoping I am not to late.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hey guys, I hope you liked the chapter and I hope you don't get the it wrong but Mc running after Allison to see if she is dead, wouldn't be considered bad. And if you think he shouldn't for any reason. Comment them here and I'll change the upper section, because to me it seems a little logical, helping someone so they are not dead.

Secondly I underestimated the word count for this chapter, the devils deed will be in the next chapter and no it will not be with anyone significant. Because it is too early to mess up someone's head.

And lastly I got some comments about that Mc thinks that sex is not really a way to control the shifting, so let me explain it. Mc transforms using his memories acting like triggers to increase his heart rate, his dad increases his heart rate too much, loosing the capability to stop at the mid point. He needs something mild and after he read the journal he deduced that stuff, because to his thinking sex also increases heart rate so he should be able to do it.

And yeah those are the little things that I had to talk about and if anyone of you have anymore questions or suggestions let me know. And yeah enjoy the weekends friends.

PS:- Can you guys give me some ideas about what kind of ff you guys would like to see. And please refrain from anything that is dimension hopping.
