Her fist broke through the wet ground as the rest of her followed, the grey stormy sky bright to her unadjusted eyes. as she stood there with the rain soaking her mud covered body she looked down at her grave stone and watched as a bolt of lightning came down and struck it breaking it into tiny pieces, after a moment of hesitation she began to walk away where she was going she wasn't sure she just let her feet take control and lead her to where ever. 

there she was standing in his door step after many years since he thought he would never see her again, he felt many  emotions he felt... conflicted. he stood there in the door way looking at her soaking wet mud covered clothes, thinking that she must be cold with it being October he opened the door wider and allowed her in as he said "its been to long" as she walked by him she nodded in agreement. they stood in the middle of his living room the both of them looking at the ground standing there  looking at each other not sure what to say "there's a bath room up stairs where you can shower and get cleaned up, Ill get you a towel and some clean clothes" he said starting to walk away but a hand wrapped around his wrist stopped him. he turned around and saw her giving him a questioning look "right" he said realizing that she didn't know what a shower was "Ill be back" he said and walked into the kitchen and made a phone call.

she showed up at the door ten minutes after he had called her "what was so important that you had to drag me out of-"she stopped talking when she saw her standing in the middle of the living room "oh my god" she whispered " I need your help" he said looking into the girls wide blue eyes. he turned around and addressed the mud covered girl "I called Lena over to help you clean up, she's going to take you up stairs to the bathroom"he said and the girl nodded in response "Maverick-"  well talk about this later" he said cutting Lena off  " just take her upstairs and wash her up" he instructed then walked off. Lena walked over to the girl and with her and on her back she directed her up the stairs. 

they stood in the bathroom with the water running in the tub and Lena teaching the girl what everything is and how to use it "okay its ready" said Lena turning around so the girl could strip, in the mirror reflection Lena could see that the girl had fresh and old scars on her back. " use this to scrub the dirt of your body Ill be back to wash your hair" she said while handing the girl a shower puff covered in soap. Lena stepped out of the bathroom and into the hallway and saw Maverick sitting on the floor beside the bathroom door with his knees pulled to his chest and his hands covering his face "are you okay?" she asked sitting down next to him "I thought she was dead... for over 200 years I thought she was dead." he whispered  "what is she?... who is she" she said "Nyla, she's a witch a really powerful which" he said with a faint smile " how do you know her?" she questioned  " years ago there was a pack of wolves  who  were dedicated to protecting all witches ...well the good ones  they were called  'lupos, qui vigilant' " he said  " the wolves who watch?" Lena translated "they didn't really come up with clever names, but each wolf in the pack was assigned a witch to protect and I was assigned to Nyla" he finished " why would they need protecting?" she asked

 "the angles disliked the fact that the witches were the first to set foot on this earth and help god create life  on this earth a he told them who was human and who was not, but the angles did not like the fact that god paid more attention to the witches so a bunch of them fell from heaven and started to hunt down and kill all witches  good and bad they wanted them all dead so they could regain the attention of their father  . I hid Nyla every time fallen   would get close to her we would relocate with different identity's. and it worked till 200 years ago when they finally caught up in the year 1615 on this very day the day I failed my job" he said with sadness tainting his voice " is that why you always leave the pack for the day this time of year?" she questioned " yes, I go to visit her grave the exact day she died and spend day there I was going to head there this morning and when I opened the door she was standing there " he said with sadness " you should go check on her " he added while getting up.

she sat on a stool in the bathroom with Nyla in the tub with her back against the side for Lena to wash her hair "you have such beautiful hair " she said while she lathered the soap in Nyla's long black hair, Nyla only nodded in reply "I'm going to have to rinse you out now " she said reaching for the detachable shower, once Nyla was rinsed Lena added conditioner thinking she could use a good portion of it after all she was buried for 200 years, she then rinsed her hair again then handed Nyla a towel before she stepped out of the room to give the girl privacy.

Nyla stood there wrapped  in her towel looking at her reflection in the mirror when there was  a light knock on the door and someone coming in shortly after "hey" he said " I found some old clothes that I thought would fit you. when you have them on just come down stairs I prepared something for you to eat" he said  " I figured you would be hungry " he added nervously she nodded and tried giving him a small smile. when he left she slipped on the clothes he gave her which were little big on her then she headed  stairs and found her way to the kitchen where Maverick and Lena where sitting "here its not much but its all that I had to make it appears I have some shopping to do" he said handing her a sandwich and a cold bottle of water  which she took and drank it as fast as she could then ate the sandwich. when she finished she finally spoke "thank you" she said hoarsely, her throat  dry from dehydration "how...how are you here?" Maverick asked while getting her another water " I don't know" she replied then started to drink the other water " they killed you...I saw them kill you" he choked out.

 she reached her hand across the table and rested it on top of his "does it matter I'm here now"she said "it does matter I don't know what brought you back and what ever it was apparently has a lot of power and I don't know how to protect you or my pack from it" he said raising his voice a bit " we can find out what it was. but don't you think that you should be happy that you got Nyla back" said Lena "I am happy that she's back I just need to know how" he argued " discuss this some other time Nyla's not looking to good" Lena said Maverick followed Lena's gaze and saw that she was right Nyla looked like she could barely hold herself up "sleep for the rest of the day and the night and we'll discuss this in the morning" he said getting up to help Nyla " I have most of the pack living here so you can take my room for now " he said opening a door at the end of the hallway. once he had helped her into bed he left closing the door behind him leaving her in the dark, slowly she fell into a dream filled sleep.
