The clouds covered the moon and stars, no lights appeared. It was dark, damp, and miserable. And the one thing Crystal knew was she hated Tangent. No wonder a werewolf would hide here, it was god damn near impossible to find this place. Crystal had lost her patience with this place long ago, and she wanted out soon. But, even being a small town, the wolf was being hard to find. She had been here for 3 long days, with no trace of any sign of werewolves.

People were starting to get suspicious of her now, she had no reason to be there, and she kept asking questions. She didn't know what the dog looked like, the information was only a name, Luke Smith, which no one seemed to know.

Crystal walked in the forest, hoping maybe the wolf was anti-social, and wanted to be away from people. She had ruined her shoes, dress, and nails, but thought it would be worth it if she could find the Luke guy. Her hair though was a different story, if it got mess up, she would kill the first thing she saw.

Then after hours of silence, a long howl broke out into the night. This has to be it, Crystal thought, this has to be the moment I've been waiting for. Crystal started running in the direction the howl came from, she had to get there before he was gone, if not all the whole point of the trip was gone.

A growled from behind her stopped her running. She stopped and turn to see a huge wolf standing behind her. Its hair was long and shaggy, she couldn't tell, but it looked to be brown. She wrinkled her nose in disgust, the smell of it was terrible.

"I'm guessing you are the one I've been looking for," Crystal said causally. Maybe a little to causal, she thought, I am going to kill it.

The wolf gave another fierce growl, before jumping toward her. It transformed in the air, from a werewolf to a man, and landed only yards away. But what Crystal saw next shocked her more than anything she had ever seen.

"Adam," she said softly. It couldn't be, he had died before her crash, he was the reason she had been speeding that night.

"Hey babe, you found me," he said speaking up before she could say anything. "Yeah, I guess we both aren't our old selves by any means are we?"

Crystal bit her bottom lip, she didn't know what to say. She was suppose to kill the man she loved, they were suppose to get married, only days before they both died.

"Yeah, I go by Luke now. I decided no one would fine me that way, but I guess I should have known you would have found me," Luke said with a sly smile.

Crystal shook her head, "You knew I was...," she wanted to say alive, but she knew that wasn't true. "Still around."

Luke's once happy face, turned angry now, something she hated to see. It was a face that scared her, it wasn't the person she once knew.

"Well if you haven't figured this one out, vampires and werewolves don't really go. Especially the vampires sent to kill the werewolf," he said coldly.

Harsh, she thought, but true. Crystal looked up at him, looked him in the eyes. She couldn't do this, werewolf or not, she still loved him, even if he didn't feel the same way.

"If I walk away right now, you won't ever talk about this. You will be dead, and no one will see you," she said slowly. This could destroy her, she thought, if they find out I didn't do my job, they'll kill me.

Luke once again smiled and gave her a wink, "I'm dead." And as quickly as he turned to human, he turned back into a wolf. He started running up a hill, but stopped once he got to the top, giving a long howl. Then he was gone, leaving Crystal alone in the forest.

Good thing vampires can't cry, she thought. She felt numb, she shouldn't have done that, she should have made sure she was well off. But it was to late now, and she turned around and started making the short journey to her car.
