Werewolves-Personal Narrative

Cyprus thought her world had come to an end the night she was attacked in the woods. Her father had her convinced it was a Werewolf attack. There were so many stories about the Werewolves in the woods. People were disappearing and the village people were in a panic.
The Werewolves were not the full truth of the missing people, but Cyprus wouldn’t find that out until much later. Oh! She was a Werewolf alright, but it was a deranged Saint that was turning people into Werewolves.

Cyprus was starting to think this was going to be her only life, a life of sleeping underground on a cold dirt floor. Her father had told her he would not allow her mother’s handmade quilts to be destroyed by the dirt, so she was not even allowed a blanket.

Cyprus ran until she hit the woods, by then the tears had dried up.
The deeper into the woods she got the happier she felt until she spotted claw marks on a tree that matched the ones in the basement.
