(Y/N)'s POV
"Hm." I mumbled. It seems like a normal morning. Like I wasn't attacked by the Sons of Garmadon, like I didn't almost die of blood loss. "I should probably wake Cole up and get out of bed. I have to try and get to Nino and have him heal me." But when I rolled over to wake Cole up, he wasn't there.

"Morning sleepy head." a voice called from the medicine cabinet. "Need some help getting out of bed?"

"Hm? O-oh. Good morning Cole. Y-yeah, I need some help. I need to talk to Zane about my wound too." I answered. "C-could you please help me get up now?"

"Yeah." Cole said, walking over towards the gurney to help me up. "Up you go." Cole held out his hand for me to take. I took his hand and Cole carefully pulled me up.

"There you go puppy. And here." Cole said, handing me one of his hoodies. "I brought you a hoodie. Zane said that it's not safe for you to be wearing one of your shirts right now, so I thought that I'd let you wear one of my hoodies. Hope you don't mind."

"I...uh...th-thank you Cole. I wasn't expecting you to let me wear one of your hoodies. Especially after what happened yesterday." I said, taking the hoodie and putting it on over my bandages. "And, did Zane put my new bandages on or did you?"

"I did. Everyone thought that it was the best choice, especially since we've been growing closer to each other over the past week." Cole answered. "And to my surprise, Nino and Raven were cool with it."

"... W-was everyone worried about me? D-did you tell my parents about it? W-where are they anyways? Did Mom, Dad, and Nino go home?" I rambled. "C-can I eat breakfast? I'm really hungry."

"Yes, no, still here at the monastery, yes, and yes." Cole answered. "I'm not surprised that you're hungry. You lost quite a bit of blood last night. Wait, look at your team mark."

"Hm?" I hummed, looking down at my stomach only to see my team mark glowing. "I-it's glowing, but I don't feel any pain. What the hell's going on?"

"I'll go get Nino. Maybe he'll know what to do." Cole replied, turning around and leaving the med bay. "I'll be right back."

"Ok." I replied. After Cole left the med bay, I started talking to myself. "Why is my mark glowing? Why was my scar glowing? Why did my scar grow? What's going on with me? Why was I hunted down by the Sons of Garmadon?"

"That is something we will find out together, as a family." a voice called from the door to the med bay. "As to your questions, you will have to answer them for yourself."

"M-master Wu. I'm sorry. I didn't hear you come in. But please, could you answer at least one question?" I asked. "I need to know what's going on with me. Please, if there's anything you might know that could help me with this whole werewolf situation, let me know."

"It appears that the reason you were being hunted by the Sons of Garmadon is because of your heritage. Are you able to walk?" my godfather asked. "If so, please come with me. There is something that I must tell you."

I carefully got off of the gurney and started walking towards Master Wu. I'm glad that he decided to wait for me at the door, because I still haven't fully recovered from the attack. Once I reached the door, Master Wu allowed me to use his staff to help me walk. Thanks Wu.

"Where are you taking me master?" I asked, my curiousity getting the best of me. "I've never been down this hallway before."

"I am taking you to the scroll room. If my memory serves me right, I believe that I encountered a specific scroll with your name written on it." Master Wu answered. "I believe that this scroll will provide you with the information needed to answer your many questions."

"But why would there be a scroll with my name on it? I don't understand. Could it be about my heritage or something? What's going on here?" I asked. "I have a right to know what's going on, right?"

"Yes, you have the right to have knowledge about what is happening. As to your previous question, I do not have a clue." Wu answered. "We are here. Please follow me."

"A-alright." I stuttered, following Master Wu into the scroll room. I have to admit, I was really freaking nervous about reading my scroll. But I need to know what the hell is going on with me. If it's something about my heritage, then I need to know. "C-coming."

After walking into the scroll room, I saw Master Wu standing in front of a large table with a scroll on top. "That must be my scroll." I thought to myself. I then walked up to Master Wu slowly, unsure of what this scroll could contain.

"Master Wu?" I asked.

"What is is child?" Master responded. "Is something troubling you?"

"I'm afraid that if I look at my scroll, I'll mess up my future. I-i'm scared." I answered.

"But it was you who wanted to know about what is happening to you, am I correct?" Master questioned. "I am only helping you to discover the source of your problems. I do not wish to lose a fellow family member. I only wish to help."

"Y-you're right. I'm sorry." I replied. "I-is that my scroll on the table?"

"Indeed. Once we are done discussing the matter, you may keep the scroll. That is if you wish to explain this to your family and friends. I do not wish to pressure you to share such information if you do not wish to do so." Master Wu answered. "I do, however, encourage you to share this information with your team. It is important that you share this information with the rest so that they may do everything they can to help you."

"I promise." I exclaimed, unrolling the scroll and reading what it says. And the first thing that caught my eye was the part about werewolves. "Uh...I...I'm a descendant of a w-werewolf? H-how? I got bit by one 3 years ago. C-could that be the reason why my scar grew in size?"

"Master Wu? Have you seen (Y/N)? I can't find her in the med bay... Nevermind." a voice called. I instantly recognized the velvety voice, it was Cole.

"C-cole, could you get the others in living room? I...I have something that you guys need to know." I asked, turning around to face my boyfriend.

"A-alright." Cole answered.

" Cole answered
