It was near sunset Jack a boy that had wolf like eyes and brown hair was helping his dad tend to the crops. The corn and wheat plants grew taller than Jack but his dad was much taller then the plants. Jack was using a farming scythe while his dad was using a very beaten up hoe. Jacks dad was a very tall and burly man with short hair. His Sister were all young woman with long blond hair while his mother was a very beautiful woman with flowing brown hair. Suddenly everyone heard the sounds of war or raid horns and a army of Elfs with heavy armor and was heavily armed. The farmers thought they came to trade until a arrow hit a villager in the chest. Jack looked at his dad in a panic"Dad what's going on!?" Jack's dad told him to get in the house. Jack ran into the house where his mother and 3 older sister hid him there was a space in the floor where he could see above. Elven warriors break in and take the girls and kill his father as Jack watched a fire burned in his chest then he heard screaming coming from out side. He snuck out to see the his mother and sisters along with other woman of the village being violated by the elven warriors as they laugh. His mother looked at him and told him to run. Jack went to flee until a another elf warrior grabbed him and drug him out. As Jack fought and so did his mother the elves laughed then one ready his blade to kill Jack as his mother pleaded for them to spare him. The elf General slapped her as tears ran down both of there faces. The anger inside Jack finally broke with a mighty roar his skin started to burn really hot with all his might he broke the elfs grip then grab a sword and with a mighty roar of pure anger in his eyes he cut off the elfs head clean off even carving through the armor the blood of the elf spilled onto the ground. Others ran in the fight and Jack cut the other ones chest straight open covering him in blood. Finally the Elf General used a sleep spell to knock Jack out then him and the rest of the army took his mother, sister and the other woman back to the Elf capital. When Jack woke he was all alone felt a pit in his stomach he cried and told himself he failed to save his family. He thought that his father or his mother would hate him. He cried for hour his face was covered with dried blood and tears. After that he picked up a sword and took all the gold in the village then left. Jack had wondered for day hoping to find a trail. He layed out onto the ground and cried himself to sleep when he awoken he was looking at his mother tears streamed down his face" momma I'm sorry I failed" she smiles then wiped off his face" it's ok baby you never failed me you tried your best now its time for you to wake up" Jack looked confused" but I am awake arn't I?" She shook her head" You are dreaming and now you must wake up". Jack had woken up in a bed he sat up very quickly and yelled "where am i?" A deep voiced man spoke" You are in my camp young one" Jack jumped and looked over to see a big man much taller and broader then his father and had a giant beard with tattoos. He looked at Jack and said" I'm Utrid the unbroken. Who are you?" Jack looked in fear and said with a shaking voice" i-i J-Jack". Utrid bent down with very stern look on his face" why where you wondering by yourself?" Jack looked down with tears in his eyes" Elves had attacked my village and killed all the men and took the woman I failed to save my sisters and my mother" Utrid hugged Jack tightly" it's ok I will take you in and under my wing. I will train you in our ways. I am cheif of the Snow Wolf clan" Jack hugged him back and for the first time in a while he felt safe. Utrid looked at him" now come we have work to do".
