Austin
He was chained underground,the prison cells that were used mostly by the witch,who put people in their who defied her. Austin had been in this room a load of times,chained to the wall. It was very dark in room,having only one window. When the door opened,Augustus;also known as the Emperor, came into the room. You were lucky if you got Augustus to torther you, instead of the witch;not by must though as he was the witch's son. He liked Austin a lot. Austin would always get whipped after Augustus forcibly took off all of Austin's closes. This would happen for two weeks,no food or water until Saturday of the first week,and after the punishment was over,which the food was only a loaf of bread and a drink of water. Augustus said," You know,if only you ever did something bad enough to get me into you. " Austin glared at Augustus for he was always trying to get Austin to love him. Oh why did I save him when we were younger? He was such a good kid till he wanted to please that witch,his ignorant mother that put even him through hell-like punishment. After 4 hours of getting whipped till becoming unconscious,Austin woke up and curled up on himself as he waited for the days to go past. Only thinking about surviving. About the people,of his group that relied on him.

Tooth
   A bluebird showed up at the window. It's been exactly 3 days since Austin and his friends went into the forbidden forest. I had given Con the letter he wrote and asked him what he meant by figuring out how to write the letters. Con said that they had a different way of writing,like a code.for everything. He then showed me a picture on piece of paper that Austin said,was his signature.

Austin's Signature in Their Code

Tooth looked at the blue bird and said," Do you know where Austin is?" The blue bird peeked the window,almost as if wanting Tooth to follow; Tooth followed the blue bird with Jake,Luke and a couple of other werewolves. They then stopped at the forbidden forest. Jake said,fearfully," A-are you sure we should go on? I heard people get slaughtered once they get lost in those woods.." Tooth said," Yes..Now Come on...Duncan did want to know what happened to the prisoners..and besides, the orphans,Ms.Susan and Con miss Austin.." They went and followed the bird to a clearing.The bird laid on the ground in front of a pile of leaves. Luke said," We shouldn't have followed a stupid bird.." Tooth bent down to the pile of leaves and moved them to find a trapdoor leading down. Tooth said," Come on.." By the time that they went down,Augustus was done whipping Austin,though he now had pants on. They sneaked to the room that the man went out of. Tooth looked through the tiny window in the door to see Austin,asleep,and bloody. Tooth looked to Jake and Luke as they all looked at Austin. Jake whispered," We got to get him out of there.." Tooth whispered," Yeah.." Petra and Peter we're going down that hall. Peter saw the three and Petra said," What are you doing down here!? New recruits have to stay in their room and practice for the big game!" Tooth said," Yeah,right. We just wanted to go outside for some fresh air,and got lost..Would you mind taking us back?" Jake,Luke and Tooth followed the girl. Tooth said,in a whisper," We had to act like we belong here and that means staying here and doing the games,I found out that the games are a competition to see who is strong and weak. The winner of the competition gets to choose what group they get to be in between He-War and She-War, The Emperor and Grim. Nobody that's a recruit knows what they look like,but they do know their skills,He-War and She-War have werewolf abilities and can use swords really well. The Emperor has most of the strong people,and most recruits want to be recruited by him for his skills,lastly Grim, a hand to hand combat and gun expert. They all have this initiation,where they get a new name and go to the group/pack they were chosen into. Which person would Austin be though?" Jake said," I hear him complain sometimes about Duncan not letting him a sword at least." Tooth said," Then that means that we have to be picked by isn't The Emperor, If any of us win and our accusation is wrong ,then May the moon goddess protect us.

Austin
I woke up,Tomorrow is the last day I have to be here. The food supply is low, so the witch reduced my punishment to be able to work. Petra got me out of the room,the next day and helped me bandage myself up. Petra said," Well,I'll see you later, Grim." I said," Bye Petra." Petra smiled; liking her real name when she said something nice or kind. Most people in this community left the idea of escaping or our families finding us a long time ago. The only people that we recruit is people who are brave enough to go into the forbidden forest despite the many horrible rumors of this place. My real name is Austin,but here I am known as Grim. For people find is very Grim that they have to work for someone who got to be a leader 10 year old..I know,Right I was only older at the most 4 years and Augustus was 16 when he got to be leader. He used to be called Shark ,but he kept on insisting that people call him the Emperor for he was technically the witch's son.
