Nova past:

Evy pushed me on the swing, telling me to kick my legs. I experience this past, but at the same time I watch it from another point of view of my older self. Evy stands by me, of the age that she died. "It's sad ya' know, I'll never be able to move forward from the age that I died. But you get to move forward, only to come back here in your dreams." She then looks down at me, with a cold look in her eyes. "When you dream and when your awake self can't deal with what is really going on."

"What's going on, outside my mind?"

She shoves me hard, but instead of hitting the ground, I go threw it. "Go find out."

Nova present:

My claws rip into his fur, until he grabs my arm with his teeth. Blood spills out from the new wound from him and me. I can feel Austin wanting to come to my aid, but I can also feel Cory holding him back.

The darkness in my mind claws to take over. Rip his head off, the darkness tells me. Pull his heart out of his chest and let it be the last thing he sees.

With my other hand, my nails grow sharp and I dig them in between his shoulders. He lets go of my arm to howl in pain. Taking my nails out of his back, I skid to the other side of him. Blood drips from my wounds, that I now start to sting and heal at the same time.

Looking him over, his body cut up and there blood on his fur. He shows me his teeth, his papules are in slits. "Ferule beast," I say threw my teeth.

He lunges at me and opens his teeth and for a split second, I feel like Little Red Riding Hood, looking down the throat of the wolf that ate grandma.

Nova past:

Instead of being in the park, I'm looking up at the stars. No one is around me, which is bad, I'm not supposed to be by myself, it's not safe.

Sitting up, I look around. I see the house lights from where I am, but I see no one inside. I see no shadows inside.

Getting up, I stand by my small self. Looking back at one another. "Why are you here? Why aren't you with everyone fighting him?"

"I keep getting sent back here, to the past." I tell myself.

"Then you are looking for something. Something to take him do with."

"Like what?"

My small form rolls her eyes. "Like I would know," she then kicks me in the shin. "Now get back there, you are losing to much blood."

Nova present:

Time has stopped when I come to. Or at least, that's what it feels like. The beast himself looms over me, blood flowing from his gums. He shifts into his human form, but he still looks like a beast. "And the weak shall be washed out by the strong." he tells me, smiling those razor sharp teeth at me, as he opens his mouth.

"Is that what you told Evy when you killed her? Did you see her weak, because she didn't give you a son? No matter how many times you tried to get a son out of her, you only got daughters." Images of babies being born, only to die hours later. "I remember the babies, only they died hours later, they didn't know what happened. But it was you, I don't know how you did it, but you killed them. There was no blood or scratches on them, but they died."

He licks his teeth. "A beast soul and pure soul will fight for control. In truth, I'm surprised that  Maria has lived as long as she has."

My blood rushes hot threw my body. "You really shouldn't be, she is my daughter  after all." He raises his hand as if to slash my face, but a thread laces around his wrist stopping him and no matter how hard he pulls, it doesn't slacken. "Kindness of my family for you is gone, I will give you one last chance to tell you where my father is."

"Think about it, kid." 

Nova past:

I was never going to see mom again. I was never going to see my siblings that are dead. I felt alone, even though I still had my family--what was left of it--with me.

I watch as the caskets are being placed in the ground. Dad holds my hand, but I feel as if I'm a ghost among all this. Stuck in my small form this time. "Nova, I want you to know something."

Looking up at him, he doesn't look down at me, he keeps his eyes forward. "What?"

"Even when someone dies, they don't truly die. They leave a mark on this world,"

"So what sort of mark will you leave dad?"

"My legacy and you kids," he looks down at me then. "Nova, some day when I die, I want you to find something for me."

"What?"

He looks away and the image around me starts to blur out. "Your true self."

Nova present:

Gasping for air, I jolt sitting up gripping at my heart as it pounds hard with in my chest. Find my true self? But I'm supposed to be finding you. Howl reaches threw the sky, taking me out of my thoughts. Looking out the window, the moon is bright with a pink color to it's face.

When it becomes red, someone you hold dear to heart will die. A chilling voice says in my head.

Whipping my head to where I think I heard the voice come from, I see soulless eyes and a side of a woman voice that looks like a ghostly white glass. "Evy, are you death?" The face and eyes fade away into the shadows of the room, as if nothing was there before.
