Whatever it takes.

That song, the imagine dragons whatever it takes. Fucking song slips into my center. It's beat resonates and the words.

" I do what it takes, cuz I love the way it feels to break these chains "

For some reason i always end up singing how it feels to shake the chains.

Made me feel my wolf. Like she was waking slightly from her sleep, an ear cocked to listen, her eyes widening as she listens to the beat, she stands gingerly. Both ears listening intently. Suddenly she's suspended,  shackled deep within a center. A center surrounded by darkness and hissing demons..the song booms through her brain, a howl erupts from her muzzle and the chains shake. The monsters howl in kind,

"Take me to the top I'm ready for whatever it takes"

She gathered her strength, drawing light and power from the tiniest of crevises that darkness had yet to find. Her eyes sparked into a brilliant gold color. She shook the chains, testing their mettle.

The demons scrambled, throwing curses and visions at her, things that normally made her succumb to their will. They couldn't reach her however. The song channeled a determination through her. One that lifted her above that which seemed eternal to the light of something more, something beyond.

"Cuz I love the adrenalin in my veins"

She shook the chains, a rattling stark sound through the void.

"I do whatever it takes, cuz I love how it feels when I break these chains..."

She growled, the rumble starting deep in her chest,  louder in her throat, then defiant as it erupted from between clenched, bared teeth. With one final tug, the chains snapped, links twisting, cracking,  disintegrating. 

A soft blue light enveloped her, lifted her from the blackness of within. Her pale green eyes saw the blue sky for the first time. With an innocents that started small and spread throughout her body. Her paws felt the soft grass. Her fur ruffled in the sweet summer breeze. She breathed deep and found serenity.

In her heart she knew, she would do whatever it takes to reach this place as much as she could possible could. Solid in her determination, she rested in the summer sun. Stretched out against the mother earth, completely relaxed beneath father sky. The world was at peace. As was the wolf.
