Saphire's POV
Flashback (6 years ago)
"Run Saphire run!" was all my mother kept saying to me, she was lying on the ground wincing in pain but still trying to look strong for my sake. I kept asking why but she only told I was special..... because I was 'different'. But I didn't understand what she was saying, all I could do was cry, watching my pack the 'Red Moon pack' get burned to the ground and then trampled on by another pack unfortunately I didn't know them but I can never forget those pair of fierce red eyes that stared into the deeps of my young and growing soul that very night.....
When I finally snapped out of my wondering thoughts I felt an arm secure itself and pick me up, when I caught the scent of my carrier I found I was my mom, I could sense that she was using the last bit of strength and will power she had because she held on to me like her life depended on it and ran, even though she had a limp and blood was running from her stomach, head, hands and legs.
When we reached a far enough distance from the pack grounds and house she stopped and put me down........a whole tsunami of questions flooded my mind and I didn't hesitate to voice them, "Mom what's happening? ,Mom who were those people? , Mom why are they killing everyone..."
She cut me off before I could ask any further by covering my mouth, she then took off her necklace and put it around my neck , I wondered why she was doing this because this was her Luna necklace this was given to her by my father who was currently fighting for our pack, but why was she giving it to me?, before I could ask anything more she said to me "Be strong my child, for you will one day lead the greatest of armies and slay the worst of beasts, you are special, you are unique, you will achieve greatness one day a will be a great leader..... And whatever happens just know that your father and myself love you and will always be by your side, Always!"
And with that she kissed my forehead then I started to feel my eyelids get heavier, when I realized that I couldn't fight it I let darkness consume me..... And that was the last time I ever saw her, the last time I every saw any of them.
Present day
I snapped out of my memories because to me they were still too painful, still too fresh, instead I sat up in the middle of my king sized bed alone...... Trying to push the memories to the back of my mind when I felt the already weld up tears threatening to fall.
"Luna! Luna!" I heard someone shout and quickly enough I picked up that it was my female beta and best friend Caroline and wiped away my tears and cleared my face of any emotion. She barged straight into my room and plopped herself down on my bed all sweaty and out of breath.....she should be thankful that we're friends because I don't like people in my personal space and I definitely don't tolerant disrespect from anyone , I just rolled my eyes at her and let out a low growl because she had landed on my foot.
"Training?" I asked.
"Yep" she replied popping the 'p' for effect.....even though it was annoying as hell.
Caroline was at least 5ft 6", she had jet black hair that stop just below the mid section of her back which she dyed the ends ocean blue just like her eyes, she had a tan completion, and had the shape of a inverted triangle meaning she had broader shoulder than hips which was good because that means more upper body strength in my book, but to be honest she was 'a sight for sore eyes' because she still had a petite structure if I do say so myself.
At least she had enough respect to address me as Luna.
I gave her an annoyed look because she was still lying on my foot, she instantly recognized and got off the bed.
"Let's start getting ready!" She practically squealed earning her another annoyed glare but she continued. Yes, she could become very annoying at times.
"For what?" I said taking a deep breath.
"What do you mean 'for what?'"
(I don't know bout the triple punctuation marks.....so bare with me)
"It's exactly what it sounds like!!" I practically yelled at her.
"Someone woke you on the wrong side of the bed" she murmured under her breath not wanting to disrespect me.
"Whatever...." I said as I was about to head to the bathroom to take a quick shower. But then I felt a hand slightly pull me back.
"Okay okay okay....I'll tell you I'll tell you gosh, you don't have to be so nagging you know Saphire" I just sent her another annoyed glare. "I'm on the school's dance preparation committee remember and I also get to skip most of my classes to plan the school dance and I start today how could you forget?"
"Yippie" I said sarcastically while rolling my eyes and twirling my index finger in the air.
"Your just jealous" she said in an annoyed yet playful tone.
"As I said whatever!" Then I went into the the bathroom to take a shower.
