Howling wind, a dark and moonlit tower, the rustling of leaves. A chill cuts through her form as she prepares herself for what lies ahead.

She remembers, clear as day, the words spoken to her as she left; "Svetlana, please! You know what happened to your father and brothers, please stay with me."

"No..." She murmured, echoing what she'd told her mother, "if there's even the slightest chance they're still alive in there, I must go."

Her mother was wounded; leg mangled by a pack of lycans in her youth.

As moonlight gently caressed her skin, Svetlana smiled; lycan blood flowing through her and giving her resolve that the stronger heroes in the village lacked.

Amber eyes closed as she tried to reach out to Donovan, her elder brother. "Donovan, can you hear me?"

Moments passed, worry knotting her gut, and she heard no response from him. Her fists clenched and she reached out to her younger brother. "Markus? Brother? Are you there?"

More anxious waiting, until finally she heard something.

"Svetlana... my sister..."

Her eyes flew open, relief washing over her. "Markus! You're alive! Is Donovan with you? And father?"

"Donovan is yes, he is unconscious. Father, however, was killed before us to make us docile."

"Where are you being held Markus?" Worry was evident in even the voice of her psychic connection with her brothers.

"I do not know... it is cold though, I think we might be underground."

"Don't worry brother. I will save you."

Determination filled her and she darted forward out of the treeline. She would find them and kill whoever was responsible for their capture and for her father's demise.
