Luna and her family were part of the ancient race of skin-changers. Which meant they could change their form by morphing into an animal. Some could change into more then one animal, while others only had one other form. Luna herself could change into a giant white wolf, much bigger then a normal wolf.
Luna was born in the Misty Mountains where the skin-changers had lived happily for many years. Then the Orcs came down from the north. The Orcs killed most of Luna's family, but some they enslaved. Not for work, but for sport. Caging skin-changers and torturing them seemed to amuse the Orcs.
"Run Luna run!" Beorn yelled to his daughter.
"No papa! I won't leave you," Luna yelled out. Luna began to cry as the orcs came closer.
"You have to Luna. Save yourself," Beorn yelled again.
Beorn grabbed his daughter and lifted her chin to force her to look at him. She could feel the tears running down her cheeks.
"Look at me Luna," Beorn said to his daughter as he wiped away her tears. "You have to get away while you still have a chance." He said to her.
They had been enslaved for who knows how long now. All of their family was dead now and most of their race was dead too. There was only a small group of them left. Along with torturing the skin-changers they would also force them to fight each other. That was when the skin-changers saw an opportunity to escape. Two skin-changers attacked the orcs instead of fighting each other to distract the orcs.
Beorn was then able with his daughter to escape from where they were being held. Beorn and his daughter were weak though from being starved and tortured. So the orcs were much faster then the two skin-changers. They quickly were able to track them down. That is when Beorn decided to fight them off for his daughter could run to safety.
"Go Luna," Beorn yelled at his daughter again.
"I love you papa," Luna cried out to her father.
"I love you too Luna," Beorn said back to his daughter.
Luna cried out more as she weakly stood and began to run away from where her father was. She quickly morphed into her wolf form for she could run faster. When she got to the top of a hill she looked back down at her father one last time. She didn't know when she would see her father again or if she ever would.

"Are you alright child?" An elf who had found Luna passed out asked.Luna jumped up in fright as she did not know who was talking to her. She must have collapsed from how weak she was.
"Who are you?" Luna asked with a frightened tone of voice.
"It is okay child I will not hurt you. My name is Elrond I am an elf and the Lord of Rivendell." Elrond said to the young girl.
"My name is Luna and I am one of the last skin-changers alive. My people were killed by orcs and some of us where enslaved by them. A small group of us were tortured and forced to fight one another, including my father." She said to the elf lord.
"We were able to escape, but found us. So my father had to stay behind to distract them for I could get away. So he is most likely dead now also," she said with a long sin and began to cry.
"You poor thing you must be starving and need your wounds healed. Come with me back to Rivendell there you can get some food and be healed," Lord Elrond said to the young girl.
"Thank you," Luna said as she began to cry.
