The colony was under attack and everyone were caught up by surprise by an enemy pack, and even though they were always alert, this time they didn’t have time to be prepared.
It was one of those dark pitch nights, where you can barely see anything without the help of the moonlight.
In the middle of the East Forest, there was a battle happening between two wolf packs. It was hard to tell which wolf belonged to which pack, except for the scent they exuded.
There were roars everywhere and screams from the ones that didn’t have time to transform yet.
“Gerard, grab Selena and get out of here,” someone shouted.
It was an elderly woman, with gray hair and sweet, but wise eyes. It was easy to tell that she was very smart. She was trying to avoid the blow of a brown wolf, protecting herself with a metal stick. She hit his head with an immense strength, and the wolf collapsed instantly.
“Hurry up!” she screamed again to the young man from her pack.
He rushed inside the house, dodging the wolves that were fighting on the way.
Selena was the young daughter of the Alpha’s pack, Bryce, a short-sighted and tyrannical leader.
Gerard found the child crouched in a corner of her room, trembling and covering her ears.
She didn’t have any experience with battles. She was very young and couldn’t even transform into a wolf yet. The noises outside were incredibly loud, and each time there was a knock near the room, Selena jumped from the floor.
“Hey, little girl.” he said calmly, squatting by her side. “How about we get out of this mess for a while and get an ice cream?”
He tried to sound the most calm possible, but it was starting to feel impossible to keep pretending, since the noises were not a good sign of what was happening outside of the house.
Selena’s eyes met his and they were full of tears. Her dark hair was all messy and she was wearing her pajamas, which indicated that the girl should be sleeping before the attack started.
She nodded to his answer, grabbing the hand he was offering her to get up off the floor.
Gerard caught her on his arms and rushed outside the room, taking a detour that led to the back of the house. He prayed that no other wolf got there before him, because that was his only plan.
After running for a while, Gerard thought that the way was clear of danger, so he put Selena on the ground. He looked back and couldn’t see anything. It was very dark and he could only count on the moonlight and the lights of a few cars passing on a road nearby.
“Are you ok, kid?” he asked Selena.
“Yes.”
“Do you think you can walk from now on? You’re kind of heavy for a young girl, you know?” he tried to make a joke to cheer her up a little bit.
She smiled, but with a blink of an eye, she changed to a terrified face, seeing something behind him.
“Watch out!” she screamed, pointing at someone coming towards them. Gerard only had time to turn and see a very big and furious wolf growling at him.
“Selena, run!” he shouted at her, before turning himself into a gray wolf.
Selena was paralyzed for a moment, seeing the two giant wolves fighting before her eyes. It was when she heard the sound of a stick breaking a bit far from there, that she seemed to realize what she should do.
She started running like her life depended on that, which it did. Her legs weren’t very long and as a kid, she didn’t have much breath to run a long distance, specially not with her stuffy nose from crying.
The noises behind her seemed to be getting closer, but she did not dare to look back.
