And Carl and my mother both stood with their mouths dropped open, staring at
me.
| felt my arms slump; the adrenaline draining like water out of me. My power and fur receded, and | was left a
little shaky. Carly thrashed again, and I held her closer to my chest so | wouldn't drop her.
"I don't know what is happening to her." | looked up at Carl and he rushed over. "I found her on the floor, but |
knew | couldn't call out for you two." | held her out to Carl as he got close enough and | watched as realization hit

He paled and looked back at my mom, and shook his head. "Fuck."
"What's wrong?" My mom rushed over and saw her face and she paled. "Fuck."
"What is going on?" | looked from Carly's face and back up to theirs.
"She is a shaman." My mom looked atand | could see she was afraid. "Okay..." | looked up at Carl. "So is her
dad."

power, shamans were accepted. Rejoiced even."
"Okay, so why does that matter?" | looked at Carl. "He's your age."
"No baby. Shaman's live longer than most wolves. And there is only one at a time." My mom looked at Carl.
"What are you saying..." | pointed to them both.
"It means that now that she is coming into her powers, 1 will..." Tears appeared

arm.

Carl shook his head, and a tear fell on to his daughter's face "There is no way to tell. She has to cfully into
her powers, and the goddess, in her wisdom, gives the current shaman tto train them."
"So we have time." | swallow past the lump in my throat.
"Not enough. She shouldn't have had her first vision until he cof age." My mother traced a finger down
Carly's cheek.
"Explain." | furrowed my brow. "Her eyes...slic is in a vislam?" My eyes looked at Carl. "You had one earlier too."
He nodded, finally taking his daughter into his arms.
"I did." Carl hugged his little girl to his chest, and he buried his nose into her hair.
"lI am so sorry, baby." His voice caught, and then he hit his knees. | watched as this enormous man, this wolf,
broke down.
"Mom." | looked up, lost only to find her just as lost as | felt
"We don't have long." My mom's words barely carried over his sobs. "Carl once toldhe started having visions
when he was sixteen and by eighteen, his grandmother was gone." She bit her lip. "The earlier the visions start,
the more powerful the shaman. The faster they master their powers..."
