The Spawn of Hate
wizards saw us as friends and not a threat as we wolves lived side by side with the wizards for a while. Our war with the wizards began when one of our great Alphas made one of the most powerful wizards ever born her mate against his will. The humans saw it as an attack instead of us just seeking to fight our extinction.  The wizards then started killing everything equally, leaving us in a four way battle. This war had been going on for decades. The humans would always have new wizards to replace the dead ones while without wizard help our numbers slowly dwindled to the two known packs we have now. Our only consolation is that the vampires are worst off than we are, there are at least 100 wolves in existence, compared with the 60 or so vampires and only 3 of them are males.”
    “Why do you have such little numbers? You should have called a truce when you found out you were going extinct.”
    “We did just that” she said sadly, “The vampires and ourselves had a meeting with all of our lead ership in Waco Texas in 1993. The wizards still holding onto old grudges found out about our meeting and burned us alive. They covered it up saying we were some kind of cult. It was after this that the current principal came to power and we have been at a fragile peace ever since, working with the government to bring down warlords and rogue wizards, wolves, vamps and lycans ever since. At least a semblance of peace is afforded to all who took the principal’s offer. Fortunately if we start warring again, our numbers are superior to that of the vampire.
    “ How are you going to manage that, I thought vampires made other vampires by biting them.”
    “I am not here to discuss vampires, if you want to know s o much about them go ask one.” She said sounding offended. “Now about this school, I am guessing this will be the last day we actually talk. I was surprised that the principal asked me to be your guide. Getting new students is not to rare, but getting an almost grown up student is unheard of.”
    “Why woul d this be our last time talking?” I asked before realizing that maybe she didn’t want to be seen with me.
    “All of the r aces here keep to themselves. My Wolves are friendly enough, at least with the wizards for obvious reasons. The wizards in turn despise us and try to make our lives difficult, since they know the true nature of why we are after them. The vampires do not socialize with anyone unless it is deemed absolute necessary and prefer to stay in their own neighborhood. The wizards do not trust us and are still in a cold war with the vampires, constantly trying to outdo each other. The lycans refused the offer of peace which is why you will not find any on our campus except for one, well sort of. Regardless, after today you will no doubt meet your human friends and they will catch you up on why it is social suicide to be seen with a wolf.”
    This school was like any other. Still clique heavy. I for one though , was not about to pass up a chance to hang with a bunch of girls who wanted to get in my pants for once. I thought my life was ruined this morning, now here I am about to be popular. Our food came and we ate it quickly enough. I had a cheese burger meal and she had a rare steak. Watching her eat was like watching the nature channel, brutal. After we finished we got up and walked outside. We got into a golf cart and she showed me the obstacle courses, the Special Forces compound, where the vampires live and finally where all the humans lived. We got out the cart near the entrance of the human neighborhood. There was a kid there at the entrance who was about 6’0 but skinny as a bean pole. He had bright red hair and his face was covered in freckles.
    “Cory this is Ronald”, she said kind of nastily. “I would show you to around your own neighborhood but the company just got less pleasant.”
    And with that she hopped into the golf cart and drove away. I didn’t know what that was all about but this
