Island opened the door, seeing her sister. She smiled a little, she was still safe and healing. She missed her, hoping that she would be okay. She wondered what she was seeing and what she was thinking about. She walked over to her, grabbing her hand. She felt so cold, she was even more worried. She thought about a life without her sister, what it would have been like. Island took in a deep breath, closing her eyes. She thought about her sister, she thought about her smile and her laugh. It was like a flash, a bright light behind her eyes. She was finding memories, in her sister.

A night like this, cold, dark. There were no creatures in the woods and no humans in the streets. They never had a home since their parents died, always having to fight to keep themselves alive. It was hard for thirteen years old to act like an adult when they have no one to teach them. Island peaked her head into the dark room, the only the light was from the full moon. She could hear sister scream in pain, trying to hold herself together. Island heard a bone crack, from the wolf inside her tearing her apart.

"Is she going to kill us?" Judith crossed her arms in annoyance. "I'm going to have defend myself if she goes all wolf on me." Judith threatened Island. Eva was standing beside Judith, wondering what Island was going to tell them. They had no direction, the only person that was protecting them was Iris.

"It won't have to come to that," Island said softly, not looking Judith in her eyes.

"Give her a break, we just lost our parents." Brooke snapped at Judith.

"I'm sorry but was I talking to you?" Judith asked Brooke. Allison placed a soft touch on Brooke's shoulder, telling her to let Judith be. 

"Get off of me." Brooke groaned, snatching Allison's hand from her shoulder and walking away. Judith looked back at Island, standing tall and demanding that Island should do something about her sister. Island turned away, looking inside the room. Her sister crotched into a corner, crying as her skin was ripping from her flesh. Island quickly walked into the room, shutting the door behind her. Iris stopped crying, slightly turning her head.

"You shouldn't be in here." Iris sniffed, trying to stop her tears. Island swallowed, standing close to the wall as she possibly could. She was scared, afraid that her sister would rip her apart.

"I don't listen very well." Island chuckled a little. "Are you okay?" Island asked her sister. Iris shook her head, she thought she would never be okay again.

"Everything...Everything is gone." Iris cried, she swallowed, trying to make the pain go away. "Our home...our families." Iris groaned, her body was turning. She was turning into a wolf, she could feel her skin tearing apart. Island panicked, Iris was only a few moments away from turning full wolf.

"No, it's not. We still have each other and we have them." Island pointed to the door. Iris slightly looked at her sister. "No matter what, they are going to be by our sides and we have to be there for them."

"Risking our lives for someone that's not us, that's stupid." Iris snared. Island chuckled, as she thought the same thing. She told her mother that when she found out about the others, she didn't want to worry about anyone else other than her sister.

"I thought the same thing but mom told me that it doesn't matter who they are. What matters is  how you feel about them in your heart. That's love, that's family." Island explained. Iris took in a deep breath, her bones were breaking and forming new ones. Her skin was peeling off  and turned into ashes. The wolf was born, again. Island's eyes widened, looking at the wolf that used to be her sister. Tall, dark black, purple bright eyes and sharp teeth. She growled, staring at her sister in a standing point. Island pressed her body against the wall in fear, tears coming from her eyes. She closed them, thinking about her mother and her father. She had just lost the people that she loved and she couldn't feel anything. The wolf stood in front of Island, breathing in her air. They were only inches away from each other. Island tried to catch her breath but she couldn't stop crying.  "Please," Island begged. The wolf stood tall, raising his paw, ready to strike. Island dunked, covering face in a loud scream. Judith jumped in, slapping the wolf. The wolf was thrown across the room and against the wall. Judith glowed her eyes, a bright red color. The wolf cried, pressing its body against the wall as hard as it could. Judith turned around, wondering if Iris was okay. And she was. She was naked, laying on the ground, confused on what just happened. She felt like her body was pulling itself back together. Allison thought it was the most amazing thing that she has ever seen. "We stick together. No matter what. We are all we have." Island looked around the room. "Our parents are gone, and the only way that we can avenge their death, is we kill whatever killed them." Island frowned. "We have to put our trust in each other. If you don't...leave." Island shrugged her shoulders. She looked around the silenced room, no one talked. Brooke placed her jacket over Iris' body, so she wouldn't feel uncomfortable.

"I'm in." Brooke looked up at Island. Island felt revealed that someone actually said something. She thought it was going to be her and Iris. 

"Were just kids." Allison explained, not knowing what to do.

"And that's why we should stick together. We're stronger together than apart." Island explained, looking Allison and Judith. Allison thought about it but then she thought about her parents. She had to this for them, this is what they wanted.

"Okay." Allison took in a deep breath, wondering what was going to happen next. They all looked at Judith and Eva. They were waiting for them to say something but they knew Judith would say no, just by the way she was looking.

"You guys are a bunch of idiots. You guys won't last a day." Judith smirked, looking around the room. Island rolled her eyes.

"I'm in." Eva quickly said before Judith said something else she would regret. Judith turned around, looking at her sister as if she betrayed her. Judith walked up to her sister, grabbing her arm and pulling her close.

"Risking your lives for these idiots. You're being dumb, it's stupid." Judith narrowed her eyebrows in anger. Eva shook her head, she thought the best thing was to stay with them.

"This is our family now, Judith." Eva said calmly. "Were in." Eva looked up at Island. Judith rolled her eyes, crossing her arms. Island smiled, thanking Eva.

"Listen, were a bad ass mix. Were witch, banshee, a trained assassin, hunter, a guardian and a fucking werewolf." Brooke smiled, helping Iris up from the ground. They all laughed, looking around at each other.

"So," Iris shivered, holding the jacket close to her body. "This is it." Iris looked around the room. Brooke wrapped her arm around Iris' shoulder.

"Yup." Island answered her.

"What do we do next, leader?" Judith said sarcastically.

"I think Allison should make the decision," Island smirked, looking directly at Allison. Allison froze, but she had to step up to the plate. This was her chance to show how useful she was.

"We fight for each other. Forever." Allison asked all of them.

"Forever." They all said, agreeing with her.

"Well, where to Allison?" Judith smirked.

"Barcelona." Allison smiled.
