Owen's P.O.V.

"Who's there?" I asked as I took a stance to attack, it would help if my claws would come out but I cannot transform, so I take a broken branch lying around. "WHO'S THERE?" I shouted as loud as I could.

No one replied. And I focused solely on the direction the sound came. I started to move forward slowly and quietly. There should not be anyone here, so it must be some animal. I moved the bushes slowly away to look at what was behind it. And suddenly something jumps in my direction. I hit it with the piece of wood I was holding as I tried to dodge it. It was missed, but fortunately, I was able to dodge it. I turned around to look in the direction where it should have landed. I looked at the ground. It was just a rabbit. Wow, that was a surprise.

Suddenly, I feel some kind of force applied to my back, it was like the wind was pushing me, I could not comprehend what was happening. I was pushed hard and hit the tree in front of me. I quickly grabbed myself up and turned around to hit whoever it was that did this. But no one was there. And suddenly I felt the same thing happen, I was punched and hit another tree. And the same thing happened again and again. I kept hitting trees all around the place. I was bruised and bleeding. But then again, I was dragged but before I could hit the tree I was stopped. I tried to take the fighting stance but I was unable to move my body. It was like someone chined me, every part of my body. I felt someone coming in my direction from behind.

"Who are you? And what are you doing here?" the person said.

"Who are you? What are you doing on our pack grounds? And are you doing this to me -" I stopped talking as I suddenly realized? "Jess! Is that you?"

As soon as I finished that sentence, I was swung to face the opposite side. I saw a hooded figure standing in front of me a few steps away. His face was almost covered with the hood of the black cape he was wearing. It was pure black, I meant it was not any ordinary fabric. Normally even with black fabric, you can see the sun light reflect from the surface, but his cape was completely back, no light reflected. It was the color of a darkroom in the night. Pitch black. His entire body was covered by the cape and it looked like a black hole appeared in the middle of the woods. Only his lips and chin were visible.

"The person I've been waiting for." He only said that. I was confused, is he really Jess or someone else. He took off the hood and I could see his face. He is Jess. He has not changed much in five years. I only saw him once but I remember his face clearly, it is not like you walk into a wizard every day. His hair was the same, white with a hint of light-green, however, I noticed they are longer than before, they reached his neck. They are wavey and he ruffled them all back. giving that messy but cool look. I wonder if they are his natural hairs. His skin was the same peach color and his eyes grey. He has gained muscles though. He does not look like a teen anymore; he looks like a sturdy man. Lean but muscular.

I felt myself getting freed from whatever was holding me. "You-" I was cut off.

"You are the guy who helped me, five years back," Jess said.

"Well, yes. And my name is Owen. It is quite amusing you remember me so clearly but not remember my name." I spoke.

"I don't remember it because you never told me your name," he replied. Did I never tell him my name? "And also, if you don't want to die, remember never tell your name to a wizard." He added as he moved around and started to walk in the dark woods. I started to follow him. I focused on his footstep because even with my night vision I could not see him due to his cape.

"What? I just told you, my name!" I was shocked, did I mess up already? He did not reply. "Well on the scale of one to ten how bad can it be?" I asked.

"Thousand." He replied.

"What? What the fucking hell?" I stood right where I was, but as the sound of his footsteps grew quitter I focused and started speed walking in that direction. "Can you kill me, by just knowing my name?" I asked. I'll be honest I'm scared.

"Oh! I can do much worse than that. But don't worry, I do not plan to. You helped me when I needed the most and for that, I should forever be grateful to you." He replied.

"Wow. You are using some serious words there. I just showed you the directions once, no big deal." I said, but he did not reply. "By the way what are you still doing here? I did not think you'd be here. Have you been living in the dark woods all these years? How-" I stopped when I hit his back. "Is there a matter?" I asked. Why did he stop though?

"This is where I've been living all this time. Jump in it." He spoke. He was pointing to a small lake.

"What? You want me to jump in that!" I said with surprise. Did not see that coming.

"Follow me." He said as he jumped in and He vanished, did he fall into the water, but I did not hear any splashing sound.

"Jess!" I said. I guess I don't have any choice. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath in. "Well, here goes nothing," I said and jumped into the lake.
