I made a short laugh. "It's hard to explain, but the gist of it. He is the reason my family and others are dead. And that I have things to learn that I never wanted in the first place." I looked at the ceiling. Tears were ready to fall. I closed my eyes again and took deep breaths.

"Ash, can we know more?" Jessi could tell it was hard for me but I knew she was right and I did need help. I was starting to lose control over things.

"Well who all needs to hear this, if they want or need to hear it all? I'm not repeating it. It's hard to let all this out. I don't want to repeat it." I sat up on the couch and I saw Bucky wave over the others.

"What do you need, Buck?" Steve asked, looking down at me.

"She is telling us who that guy is." Bucky said. That got everyone's attention. They all sat in chairs or couches around me.

"Well when I was around five or six years old my family moved here and they wanted to meet the neighbors. So my dad held a little party with food and drinks. A lot of people showed up and some had kids. So I had others to play with since my sister was only a baby and was with mom all the time. But at the party there was a kid that I was drawn to so I hung out with him the whole night. As the years went on I still hung out with him even through school and when he graduated. My parents were happy I showed interest in guys so they really liked him. When I met Jessi he was still around but was always busy. So I was alone and bored all the time. I hung out with Jessi and then she left but most of the time I would hear from her but it wasn't like him. Then when I was about 13 when he told me he wanted to show me where he worked and that I would love it there. So he brought me to a building and we went in and he brought me to a lab down under ground. As the day went on and he showed my tests and lab equipment he brought me down more and I saw things in glass cages or bright lights and I started to hear screams. But he said all was normal. So I followed him farther down. He got me in a room but as I got in I heard the door behind me slam. I spun around and he was smiling on the opposite side of the door. I asked him what was happening but he didn't say anything. He just pushed a button and I was greeted with a snarling big ass dog. It lunged at me but I was smaller and got away. I was screaming for him to help but he wasn't there anymore. I was left locked in a room with a crazy dog. As time went on the dog and I never stopped. I was starting to lose energy and I wasn't able to hide since the room had nothing in it. I accidentally slowed on my running and the dog was able to jump on me. It bared down on my shoulder and all I heard was bone shattering and skin ripping. My throat was so dry I couldn't even scream anymore. The dog shook its head and was growling. But for some reason it let go whimpering and ran to a door that showed up on the far end of the room." I took a deep breath and looked around at everyone.

"Was the dog actually a wolf?" Sam asked. I nodded and looked down at my hands.

"Did it have a disease? Could that be why it was wanting to attack you?" Natasha asked from the other couch.

I shook my head " That would have been great if it had a disease. But it didn't. As I layed there bleeding and crying, Torren came in finally. He walked up to me and gave my leg a kick. He asked if I was still with him. But I couldn't move my body because it hurt so much. He must have seen me blink or something since he called in a few others. I started to doze off but before I did I heard one of the others ask if the bite worked."

"Bite?" Thor asked. He seemed confused.

I smiled at him. "Yea I found out later as I was chained in a room that the dog that bit me was a werewolf" I stopped and shrugged.

"Werewolves aren't real." Tony piped in from the wall across from me.

"That is what I thought, but as time went on and my chains were replaced with a collar it looked like a tracker one or a shock one and a chain to my ankle that was anchored to the wall by a very large chain. It was hard to move around in my current shape. I found out that I was soon going to meet one. Me."
