Shadows; that all there was in the forest. The moon was covered by clouds, and the only things visible were the candles. 100 candles were lit as the group of cheerleaders began to play the game. One by one the cheerleaders told ghost and demon stories; and one by on the forest was steadily growing darker and darker. The cheer captain began to tell the last story as to see if the stories were true "They say late at night, up at the Old Hill Manor. If you go in there you'll find a shrine for a demonic entity there. The shrine was put in place by Old Man Hill before his passing as to increase his life by taking that of others. He slowly began to lose soul to the shrine; until one night much like tonight only the moon was shining, his soul was taken out of his body a pair of big meaty gruesome claw like hands ripped his body apart and took his soul into the shrine. The shrine then began to deteriorate fast and was sucked back into hell. They say that because he never truly died or maybe it's because he has unfinished business his spirit (not his soul) roams the halls of his Manor waiting for the right time to strike and take a new body for his spirit to inhabit."
She blew out the last candle and suddenly everything went pitch black. The gale became so angry that the tents the cheerleaders had set up blew away deeper into the woods. The clouds that covered the moon moved out to reveal a deep crimson moon. Razen steadily walked out and bared his sword like teeth and kept walking stealthily towards the scared cheerleaders.
The cheerleaders ran franticly after their tents. The deeper in the woods they went the more crimson the moon was and the frightened cheerleaders went from frightened to terrified. Razen howled and then the cheerleaders screamed. He jumped in the middle of cluster that the cheerleaders had formed and tore them to shreds. The cheerleaders faint as Razen buries his claws deeply into the Cheer Captain. "Why is it always with the screaming, the shrieking and the yelling" he thought.
Mutilate limbs scattered the forest floor, he began to to feast on the remains of the dead cheerleaders. He gnawed deeply on the arm of the last cheerleader stripping it of all the tender meet, when the moon fell behind the mountains; his huge sword like teeth began to shrink into small human grinders. His massive snout the size and weight of all full grown male polar bear shrunk down to the size of the average human mouth. The shaggy grey matted fur began to fall off and retract under his skin leaving him with neck length black hair to his twenty-four foot tall body. His body shrinking down to that of a high school girl; finally his chest grew out a little to the point of notice-ability, but not to where the first thing you notice is her huge chest. Lying cold and naked on the ground Rea passed out and was dragged by her pet wolves back to house.
Rea slid into her seat as the tardy bell for fifth hour rang. She sighed out of boredom and began to stare out the window at the football players practicing. The captain of the football team Jay, looked at her she dared not hope as she looked down at her black blouse with her sapphire blue skirt and sighed again, "I wish I was more attractive. If only my boobs were bigger; my hair a different color and shorter; my legs more shapely and I really wish I weighed less," she whispered to her best friend Tai, "Then I'd be able to get a boy for more than two seconds".
"Come on," said Tai, "you're already ten pounds under weight, and if you'd curl your hair it look really cute. If your legs were anymore shapely they'd have to belong to a Barbie doll. You're boobs aren't all that small and besides your deep sapphire eyes and your personality make up for your bad haircut and huge bags under your eyes."
"I've got a bad haircut and bags?" she asked worried.
"Got ya and anyway I think you're gorgeous".
"Well you consider anything that moves gorgeous, and you're gay it doesn't count" she retorted sharply with some hints of defensiveness.
"Hew now, no need to get mean; my sexuality has nothing to do with admiring beauty. After all I am artist. I make a living creating and admiring beauty. Also I'm your best friend and the person who cares for the most in the world; so why would I lie to you about the important things"
Rea sighed again and replied "Fine, you win this round. I guess I'm not ugly after all, just merely unattractive. So we still good for Friday?"
"Yeah, I'll text later for whose all coming."
Later that week the cheer squad went out into the forest in order to get that scary feeling for the Halloween dance next Friday. They ventured into the forest late that afternoon with their football playing boyfriends lugging the heavy stuff, their weed and beer. That night after their the locks left Rea wondered into the forest naked in semi-lucid state of mind. All she could think about was getting revenge on the cheerleaders who had ruined her life. As the sun set and the moon rose she began to change from small quiet Rea to dark and dangerous Razen. He stalked his prey with the precision of a natural born killer. The football playing boyfriends left for the night to make sure that everything was ship shape and smoothed over with their parents. The cheerleaders after have smoked their entire weed and smoked all their booze decided to play 100 candles; these are the rules of engagement you have 100 candles and everyone goes around in a circle telling ghost stories. Every time someone tells a story you have to blow out a candle until all 100 candles are out. Razen knew this game would last for a while so he waited and watched.
The liberating bell rang and all the students rushed into the hallways to talk with their friends before head home for the day. Rea headed straight toward the locker-room for cheerleading try outs. She changed into the smallest tightest outfit she could find that could still be worn at school and complement her body. When she was done changing she began to feel really nervous and extreme anxiety after it wasn't every day you got invited to work with the varsity cheer quad.
"Left back flip, right front flip, triple twist left back flip!" exclaimed Cheer Captain as she lit a cigarette and blew in the contestant faces. They coughed and nearly dry heaved when the smoke hit their faces.
"Come on if you can't handle this imagine how badly you're going to react at the football games." she screamed.
Cold and naked Rea awoke on the bedroom floor. Foggily she went to splash cold water on her face, she looked down at the water and noticed it was red; so she deliriously looked in the mirror and saw that is was broken ten of hundreds of tiny shards; few chunks remained on the mirror in such chunk she saw a blood like red substance over in the corner of her mouth.
The cheerleader had begun to formulate a plan to embarrass Rea. She
He simply took a deep breath to extinguish their bonfire. He unleashed a hauntingly terrifying hellish howl that shook the very foundation of the old forest. From there everything was simple to the point that a five year old mental challenged autistic child would understand it. He let them wander deep into the forest and into a gully with a cave; then Razen demonic werewolf lord of the forest ate his fill on cheerleaders.
Rea kept up with the cheer captain and ever surpassed her on the five mile run. To say that she earned her place on the squad was to say that it rains in Seattle. Slowly but surely she was accepted into the in-crowds of high school Tai helped get her settled in and become more comfortable. He hooked her up with the second most influential man in football; the starting linebacker.
Madly she tried to recall the events of last night; the last thing she recalled was being stripped and highly embarrassed when coming home and crying. Then black darkness, she grabbed her small vanity mirror and saw something horrible. Deep red almost crimson red eyes were at staring her back. Rea sighed and put the mirror down with the calmness of a death row prisoner being lead to their death. She went over to Razen and kissed his cheek.
