"Land Ahoy!"
That was what woke her up from sleep.
She jumped up in her bed and for a short while she had been confused as to where she was and slowly it all began to come to her.
She was in a ship being sent back to the moonlight pack and then she recalled the events of the previous night wondering if it had all been a dream.
She itched her hair and then she saw that there was a very very large fur beside her literally up to the size of the bed.
She jumped and saw it was Kire.
"Kire." She said.
The wolf woke up and looked up at her and then she smiled and rubbed his fur.
It was when he started to rise because he had been resting that it occurred to her that he had truly grown just as Erik had said.
She was shocked at how huge and massive he was.
His head even hit the ceiling of the cabin.
He howled in pain and she gently calmed him. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
"So sorry about that." She said. "Try to keep your head down."
And then he obeyed and remained bending.
"Erik was not joking when he said you will grow big overnight."
He wagged his tail excitedly and it swiped a glass bottle in a shelf and it landed into pieces.
"Woops." She said. "Maybe we should be less excited."
And then she heard the men say land ahoy again.
And then it dawned on her what that truly meant.
They had made land.
She came down from the bed and hurried to the steps.
Kire followed her right behind, breaking things in the way.
When she got to the top deck of the ship she saw that the sun had just been rising in the horizon.
The men were going on about with their wooden planks and some mopping and cleaning.
"Excuse me, sorry." She apologized as she dodged and rushed past the men to go to the side of the ship.
Kire was nothing like her he bombarded through the men and they complained as he ran past excitedly after her.
She reached the railing and held on to feel the air and watch land from afar.
Kire joined beside her and wagged his tail as if he was a little puppy.
She breathed in the air and smiled at the feeling and sweet sounds of birds flying off.
Unknown to her Xaden was stepping up
On deck and discussing with the tongue less captain and stopped short when he saw her.
He watched as she stood enjoying the air.
And then he was drawn back to his discussion with the captain.
Then she looked and saw the land that they were about to stop at.
And chills came through her because that meant that she was closer to home.
"I told you he was going to grow."
She turned and saw Erik.
Kire jumped up and down before attempting to climb his master.
"Easy boy you’re too big." Erik warned his wolf.
