The Wolf
Description
Two pieces in one,
Cracked as a whole.
Each is a loner,
One sleeps, one growls.
What triggers the other?
A flip or a toll.
Whichever unstable,
stays put until told.
The way of the wild or the way of the man?
Time will choose.
Time will tell.
Foreword
The hands were small, like of a child's – smooth and fair like the snow coating the gray soil and leaves. They were reaching out to me, like an invitation to a dance in the purple evening. Dusk cupped the horizon with its palm, casting curious colours onto the pure white snow. I stood there in the cold, frozen, mesmerized by the perfection of the outstretched hand. And yet I was not distracted about the fact that I could not see the figure's face, which stayed hidden in the shadows between the trees. Very slowly, my blue fingers twitched to life and I slowly raised it to touch the hand. Compared to them, my palms looked gigantic and coarse, like a bears' paw comparing with a rabbit's foot. Then, before making contact, I raised my eyes.
I saw her face.
The child was no taller than five feet, and her hair was covered with a woolly beanie. Her lips were white from cold, and her little nose twitched like a squirrel sniffing out nuts when snowflakes dropped from her eyelashes onto her bridge. Her boots had left shallow tracks behind her, and her hair fell over her shoulders like a thin waterfall, emitting an artificial sweet scent. But what caught my attention the most where her eyes. Unlike any human child I had ever seen, they stared into mine. They hid nothing, but what I made out was nothing but fear at my startling appearance.
She was not afraid of me.
Then, her tiny fingers latched onto my trembling ones.
I panicked.
A/N ::: I'm sorry about the shakiness, the original video isn't shaky at all。 Youtube doesn't do it any justice.
It's my first trailer, I hope you like it... if you watch it.
This fanfic is the EXO version of a novel I had been working since I was 12, and I gave up then because I lacked resources. But I dug it out recently and decided to resume it. I decided to share it with you guys since EXO's Wolf is a huge hit these days. However, this fic is not inspired by the song or music video, so do not expect any resemblance in storyline with the lyrics or MV plot. Thanks for all the encouragement so far in my other fics. For my subscribers, this may come as a surprise since I usually come up with crack fics. But don't worry, I'm kinda confident my fic won't disappoint you guys too much. I hope.
Enjoy.
