secrets better left untold

I am living in an ally
I get my food from the trash of a neighboring Chinese restaurant
I've been told that my life is difficult
But i think that my life posses a certain freedom
I can leave when i want no bills to pay and i can run to my hearts content
A few years a go when i had just relocated to the city i was bitten
I woke up in a pile of trash next to a rundown apartment building
At first nothing happened i went to the river cleaned my wound and bandaged it with a piece of my t shirt
It stayed that way for about four more weeks when suddenly i changed
It was a full moon i started to grow claws and fur sprouted out from all over my body
I was a beast but a beast that could now fend for it's self


I later woke up naked and shivering in a forest covered in blood
This is the time i'd rather not think about
As the years woe on i learned to be consious when i changed and even to change when
the moon wasn't full in the sky

As i said before i could fend for myself and feed myself
I mostly stay in human form because it doesn't take away as much energy
I am a loner among my kind i have met many but there ways are to hostile or they are unable to take care of themselves
something that i am not willing to take responsibility for but i will make sure
that they are safe as long as they are in my territory

I get clothes for doing odd jobs mostly clothes that have a few holes in them and from the salvation army

lets hope that no one dares to harm the ones that i have vowed to protect for the time being because i would kill them with no hesitation
