Amy slowly starts waking up as she feels the Earth beneath her nude body and hands. Her body was hurting all over from being exposed to the desert heat and strong winds. Her nude twelve-year-old body was as red as a lobster after being boiled. She slowly stands up off the ground, hurting with each movement. Pain flares from every joint of her body. Amy had no idea where she was or how she got here. The last thing she remembers was the guy her father worked with at the military base picking her up on her way home from school and giving her bottled water to drink, which tasted funny, and passing out afterward. She remembers waking up later inside a musky operating room tied down on top of an operating table.

The operating room was dirty and had yellow paint peeling off the floor. It smelled musky and was extremely hot like there wasn’t any moving air to cool it down. Amy recalls a guy dressed in a bloody doctor’s coat holding a needle in his hand that had some sort of red liquid inside of it. He stuck her in a vein in her wrist and pushed the liquid inside the needle into her blood. At first, whatever it was that they injected into her made her feel like she was floating on air, and then all of sudden every nerve in her body was on fire. She remembers arching her back off the table as her body tried to break the restraints, they had her secure with. It felt like every nerve ending had been dipped in acid. She felt something huge shoved up inside her body from between her legs. She remembers screaming from the pain from the force used to shove it into her small body.

She was feeling extreme pain from the drug they were using on her and from the huge object shoved up into her body pumping the same sort of liquid into her small body.

Metal clamps were slapped around her petite wrist as needles inside the clamps pierced her skin and went directly into her veins. More clamps were fastened around her ankles and a plastic tube was shoved down her throat, till it hit her stomach, and the liquid was pumped into her stomach. A metal choker with needles was fastened around her small neck and more of the same liquid was sent into her blood. It felt like she was being burned from the inside out.

The object that had been shoved up into her small body was expanding, tearing her open. She tried to scream, but the tube in her throat prevented that as the liquid was continuously being pumped into her body. She felt someone grab her other hand and stick a needle in the same place that they had done the other one. She felt whatever it was that they gave her go into her body and the next thing she knew was that she was so high, that she wasn’t feeling anything or seeing anything. The last thing she remembered before darkness claimed her, was a huge needle plunged into her heart.

Amy woke up a few times suspended in the air with tubes connected to every joint and pressure point on her body. There was a metal band that went around her head and she could feel pressure from it as they pumped the same liquid they used everywhere else on her body into her head as well. All she knew was that days had gone by and she was kept high as a kite. Each day her body was pumped full of drugs and drained and repeated every other day. The liquid inside the needle was always red that they pumped into her and not some other color. After the man came in to monitor her and fondle her some, he would kiss her on the cheek. He told her that she will be his greatest achievement. As he pumps another drug into her, which causes her to pass out. Just before she blacks out, she hears the machines she is connected to go off and her body starts shaking violently. She goes limp as death came for her, someone saying she was dead. As her heart stops and she slips into unconsciousness.

Amy looks around for some sense of direction to go but finds nothing that is helpful. She just starts walking north away from where she woke up. She had no idea where she was or how to get out of where she was, but she felt something urging her to go in a direction. Every step she took hurt her feet and the wind that was blowing, blew sand into places there shouldn’t be. She had nothing to cover up her body. She was still hurting in her joints and she felt extremely feverish. All she knew was that something wanted her to come the way she was walking.

As Amy is stumbling along, trying to stay upright as her feet hurt. She notices a pitch-black color wolf come up to her. It stops near her and looks at her. She stands still wondering if it was going to hurt her. He comes closer to her and sniffs her. It stops and sits back on its haunches looking at her with its head tilted to one side. Amy makes eye contact with it and notices that its eyes were very blue like the sky was on a clear day. They weren’t the color of a wolf or animal.

As Amy stares into the wolf's eyes she felt something or someone probing her thoughts. She had never felt anything like this before. It was a little frightening, but she wasn’t scared as it was being done to her.

~” Come with me pup of mine.”~ Wolf looks at the girl child the white men had used his blood on. They had managed to trap him with their strange magic and then take his blood from his body and injected it into this girl child he has been looking for since his escape. He could sense the changes it was making to this girl child. One that he has already come upon was that her scent smelled of a Wolf-like himself, not like a human girl.

He could feel her spirit now that the wolf essence that was part of him was now part of her. He could feel the magic that course throughout this body, now doing the same thing to her as well.

Amy wonders how the Wolf was speaking to her inside her head.

“Am I dead?” Amy wasn’t sure anymore about herself.

“No child, you are not dead yet. However, you were dead earlier. Your body was dead for several days, but your spirit refused to leave your body and go to the great hunting grounds. You have become one with my spirit now, because of what the men who kidnapped you have done to your body. Your blood is my blood and your spirit is part of me now. Now come with me so I can take care of you.” Wolf exerts some of his will on Amy.

Amy felt Wolf’s words as she starts walking behind him. She had no choice, but to do as he tells her. Amy’s head starts hurting her bad. The pain felt like someone was squeezing her head in a vise. Her eyesight starts to become blurry.

“Wolf sir, my head hurts bad, it’s pounding in time with my heart.” Amy kept following behind Wolf.

Wolf could feel the girl child's headache as well. He uses a touch of his magic to ease her pain. He could feel the connection between himself and Amy becoming strong.

“You should feel better now, pup” Wolf looks back over his shoulder at Amy.

“Thank you, sir. Sir, will you help me return to my parents, please? I know they are worried about me and I would like to go home to them.” Amy missed her parents and wanted to go home.

“Your parents have passed on. The man that kidnapped you sent some men to kill your father and mother. Your father fought bravely, but he was no match for the men sent to him and your mother. It is best if people think you are dead my child. You will no longer be who you use to be.” Wolf could already see the physical changes being done to this girl. His blood was turning her into a Native American child. Her hair color had already begun changing from the curl short brown hair he had first seen on her, to long straight black hair with blue highlights. He already knew she was going to have a dark tan to match her dark hair.

Amy didn’t know what to say as she walked behind him. Tears just slide down her cheeks as she kept following Wolf. She felt that he was telling the truth. That he was being honest to her.

“Wolf, what did those men do to me and why did they do it?” Amy was wondering why her?

“I wish I could answer that question, pup. I did not know that they had plans for my blood, but what they didn’t count on, was you dying and absorbing my blood into your system. Even when they drain your blood to extract my blood from your system, they didn’t count on it staying with you.” Wolf had wondered why they had pumped this girl with the blood they took from him into her.

Amy just sighs as she continues to follow. She looked out into the desert and notice that they had come to a mountain pass. She follows behind Wolf as he leads her through a maze of twists and turns. Some of the passages were only big enough for her to crawl through on her hands and knees. Once they came out of the passage Wolf took her through, she saw a beautiful waterfall and a large pool of clear water.

“Go and take care of yourself, pup. I will return later with food and clothes for you. Do not leave this area for any reason. If you do leave without me here, you’ll never find it again. So, stay here and wait for my return.” Wolf just looks at Amy as he mentally tells her this.

Amy looks at Wolf and then at the pool of crystal clear water and the waterfall. There was an area for her to sit or lay on the rocks near the waterfall and shade to protect her sun-burned skin.

“Yes sir.” Amy starts walking towards the pool of water.

Wolf watches as his pup now walks towards the pool. He was going to need to bring her food, clothes, and other times to make her life easy here. He’ll have to bring someone he trusts back to teach her and watch over her. He watches as she walks down the stone steps into the pool and then leaves the same way they had come.

Amy finds the naturally made stone steps at the pool edge that leads down into the water. She follows them down into the cool water, which felt nice against her sunburned skin. Amy submerges her entire body in the water and lets the coolness of the lake cool her sunburned skin. When she looks back to see where Wolf was, she didn’t see him. She wonders where he was off too. She takes a sip of the water and swishes it around in her dry mouth. She spits it out outside of the pool. She didn’t want to contaminate the water any more than she was doing now. She swims towards the waterfall and gets out of the pool to stand under it to let it wash off all the dirt and sand that had blown into places on her body. The cool water felt nice against her poor skin.

When Amy is done cleaning herself, she relaxes on a rock covered with soft moss and just lies there staring up at the sky. She spots an Eagle flying overhead her.
