I can turn the gray more blue, give me a chance and I'll show you. How to go from good to bad to worse.
And then you'll see my greatest gift is, falling down and takin' it. 'Cause everything feels better when it hurts....
My biggest thirst, is Happiness, in all kinds of weather
For worse or for better, I'll have it anyway.
But happiness, can't last forever.
You know there's never, pleasure without the pain.

This is a Creative writting assignment I had to do in class today, We had to write something about betrayal that wasn't too commonly used, or whatever.. So I came up with this.
Moonlight
We have to keep moving, come on, we have to. The words rang through my head like a bell. All I had to do was to keep running, one foot in front of the other, don’t give in, keep ahead, don’t stop.
The snow was crisp, it stung my bare feet, hard to move, Got to keep running. My coat kept me warm, kept my blood running hot. My ears were stiff, frozen from the wind, I couldn’t stop, and they’d get me. The moon was high in the sky, illuminating the snow and the trees around me. It was bitter and cold, I was being chased. Six behind me, after me, to kill me. I did nothing, I kept my place, I did nothing, but it wasn’t my fault.
He forced his way onto me, he hadn’t the right, and now they were going to kill me. He raped me and they were going to kill me. Just keep running, maybe they’ll give up, maybe they’ll stop if I keep running.
It wasn’t that simple, they were hot on my trail. My prints made it easy to track, the snow made sure of that. Clouds drifted slowly, care free, how I wished to be a cloud right now, nothing to worry about, I wouldn’t have to run. Faster. I urged myself, if my mind wandered, I'd slow down, and they’d get me for sure.
I came across a black river, frozen over in Ice, I didn’t stop. I kept running, maybe the ice would break and I’d fall through, no such luck. Snow again, under my feet, I ran. They were right behind me.
She was sick, weak, he wouldn’t touch her. He’d been with her for years, and he wouldn’t touch her. She’s better now; she found out and came after me. He’s with them to, it’s his fault and they’re all going to kill me. The whole pack of them is going to rip me to shreds.
Her sharp eyes pierced the back of my head, snow clinging to her gray coat. She lead them after me, he was at her heels, an all too pleased with himself smirk on his lips as they chased me. Leaping over fallen trees, snow covered rocks. I stumble, I fall. It hurts so much. Get up. Run, keep moving. Keep going. Have to. It hurts too much, I can’t, my leg hurts.
They get closer, hot on my trail. I can hear them. Get up! I stumble to my feet and take off again, the pain makes me shutter, but I can’t stop. I don’t want to die. It was two years ago when they took me in, I was their outcast, someone to pick on and beat up. Hardly fed, but I was strong willed and didn’t give up. I was the lowest rung of their group, and they were out to kill me. I didn’t betray them, they betrayed me, and I was going to die for it.
A yelp escaped my lips as I stumbled, another black river, roaring creatures ran up and down the road and strange feet. I skidded across the ice this time, my foot searing in pain from my earlier fall. Devour me, please, before they get the chance too, I won’t give them that luxury, please. The creature didn’t listen, instead it stopped. Sending out some weird lesser animal, on two legs instead of four. I try to get to my feet and run away. But it hurt too much, and the ice was so cold. The moon shone down on the black river, I could hear the others. They had slowed down, they could smell the two legged creature, they knew to stay away.
I lifted my head, whining, pleading, I could see them turn around and run back home. Her tail was high, so was his. Their gray coats covered in snow. My coat was too, but white on white, you could hardly tell. The creature got closer and looked me over from a distance, I wanted to run, to get away, but I couldn’t.
“We’ve got a wolf here on route 77; its front leg seems to be broken. I’m going to need Animal control and someone get on the phone with one of those sanctuaries.” I didn’t understand, all I knew was I was tired, but I couldn’t sleep, I didn’t trust this creature. “It's okay girl, we’re going to get you fixed up, okay?”
Get away, don’t come any closer. I growled, frightened, what was going to happen to me? What was this thing going to do to me? I whined, and put my head down again. Before I knew it, something pierced my back, I fell asleep unwillingly.
When I woke up, I was in the woods again, only I wasn’t. I was enclosed in some kind of area, small, alone. Something covered my leg, it didn’t hurt at much, it felt weird. I wanted to take it off, but something inside told me not to. I laid my head down again. I could hear something, I lifted my head again, more two legged creatures, and their pups.
“And here you’ll find Winter. She was rescued yesterday and will be staying here at the zoo until she recovers. Though we might keep her here for some time, tests show she’s pregnant and should be having about four pups this spring.”
