"You, want me, to help you bring the crystal back to its original owner?" Matthew concluded.
"Precisely!" Valerian said.
"Isn't this going to be dangerous, knowing what it can do?"
"Well, I can't keep it here, besides...I do need a body guard." Valerian persuaded.
"Really, I can't do that, that's more Shadow's thing! I can only do it when I'm strong, like back when I was a wolf."
"You miss being a wolf, don't you?"
Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
Actually, he DID. His wolf has the speed and the strength to take down an enemy.
"Why do you want me to be your body guard?"
"Maybe it'll help you boost your self esteem on the way..." She said.
"Look, even if it'll help me, I still can't unless I'm a wolf....but I'm not anymore!"
Valerian then gave him the crystal again. "Wish for it then!"
A wishing crystal?
He looks at her willingly. "You're saying this will.....change me back? I can be a wolf again?"
Valerian nodded.
"Wh - what about the others? Can they be wolves too?"
"Only if you wish it."
"I want to be human though."
Valerian held up her hands. "You can be both you know? You'll have the ability to change whenever you like. Your friends too!" She said convincingly.
Matthew giggled with excitement. He focused on the magic withing the crystal.
Suddenly, he felt a wave of dizziness and nausea wave over him. Before he could vomit, he collapsed.
