Growling was coming from outside the truck. I heard something like claws on metal, ripping open my truck door. The girls were screaming, but suddenly Jenetra stopped. She sniffed a bit, and whispered, "Lucius." 

"What!? Who's Lucius?" Siala screamed at her.

"My cousin. He comes from the dark side of the family, and killed my real mom at the last family meeting. My dad sent me and my brother here, so it would be safer for us......"

"Okay! Enough with back stories, we need to get out of here!" I yelled in fury.

 Siala grabbed her pocket knife, (which I didn't know she had.) and smashed the back window. Jenetra climbed out first, Siala did the same after and I followed. They turned into their wolf forms, and I jumped on Siala's back. We started to run, and had Lucius trailing after us. People stared out their  car windows, but we just kept running. We came to a small forest, and stopped in the middle of it. The moon was coming overhead. Jenetra did a soft howl, as if it was like a signal. Siala did a faint smile and joined in with her. The people of our city probably thought it was just some coyotes, but to me it was like they were singing me to sleep, their howls in perfect harmony.

I woke up that morning with a hunting knife pointed at my neck. The man holding it had deep dark black hair and pale skin. He breathed heavily, and had a scar running down the diagonal of his eye.

"Lucius, don't!"

It was Jenetra, and she was running toward him. Luciuas dropped the knife, and threw his arms out wide.

"Ah Jenetra, my favorite cousin! You have grown!"

"Why are you trying to hurt  him! I'm the one you want!"

"Alas, you are wrong. He loves your friend, thus making him part of the hunt. Us Moontails should never trust a friend of the Nightfurs. Come, Jenetra, have some family loalty! You still have to decide whether to be a dark or light Moontail, and I think now is a good time to make that deison. Well, go ahead, decide."

"I, I, I choose...."

Then he lunged at Siala.
