The Fall of The Lunar Bane Pack

"Go! Now before they find you. Go!" Her voice echoes in my mind. My mother screamed at me to run for my life. Wandering through the woods aimlessly, I find myself in a soft meadow. Sighing I sit down in the center, taking in the untainted air. I replay what happened just days before in my mind, tears falling down my cheeks.

Flashback:

I sit with my father and brother in the living room eating. We are always eating. Tonight we are having Dad's favorite, Nachos with a side of mashed potatoes. I know how weird that sounds but, we can never decide so we have both. Momma comes out of the kitchen in what I like to call her, "I'm home now so you can fuck off" look. Blonde hair tied in a messy bun, One of dad's t-shirts, her favorite Batman shorts, and a coffee cup that is always in her hand. "Hey guys. What are we watching tonight? I vote for reruns of Big Bang Theory." Momma Loves Big Bang Theory. But, so do the rest of the family. "Sounds good to me. What about you, little ones?" Dad asks me. I nod my head in agreement, while Liam just looks at us blankly. "We're Home!" a voice calls from the entryway. "In Here!" I holler back. I shove more nachos in my mouth before turning to greet my sisters. "How was it? Still dull, tormenting, and gut wrenching?" Thea starts laughing hysterically at my sarcasm. Maeve not so much. "Yes! Oh My God! Y-y-you just got told by a freakin' 12 year old." Thea barks out. Maeve gives us both glares. "Going on a double date is not that bad. And what do you mean I" Mae uses quotations with her fingers."-got told by a 12 year old. You went with me, remember." Dad and Momma start chuckling at our banter. Liam just looks at us confused, his 3 week old mind not understanding. Thea deadpans. "Excuse me but, I am not counting that as a date. My guy puked on my shoes and then left with his mom." I am only seven and still cringe at the information. We laugh at Mae's expression. "Whatever. I am going to change. I will be right back to watch BBT." Thea hollers while she runs up the stairs. "Me too." Mavie says, following behind Thea.

Settling in for the night, laying in our pjs piled around on the couch and mattress that lays in front of it. We don't get a lot of nights like this, seeing as Dad and Momma are Alpha and Luna of our pack. I look around at my family. Laying on the mattress next to me is Liam. His curly brown hair in his face, while he looks at me with sky blue eyes that mirror mine. Evelyn lay on the other side of him. Maeve is the one that looks the most like Momma out of the four of us. Her long blonde hair and piercing blue eyes that could make you do just about anything for her. Thea sat next to Dad crossing her legs over his. Thea with her fierce attitude that matched her looks completely. Platinum blonde hair that was in boxer braids, paired with dark blue eyes that could cut you with a look and tell her all your secrets. Dad like Liam had chocolaty brown hair but his eyes matched his hair. Momma-I thought-had the simplest beauty. Like my sisters and I, Momma has blonde hair and blue eyes. In front of the pack and important officials, she is very regal and elegant but, at home, Momma is very laid back and sarcastic. Relaxed, surrounded by my family with the voices of Leonard and Raj in the background; I fell asleep.

Just as I fell asleep, I heard screaming. The door slammed open revealing Lyle, my dad's beta, in utter panic. "Alpha. Luna. The Rogues have attacked. The school, hospital, and many of the residential buildings have been destroyed. Fire is everywhere." Dad ordered him to mind link the pack. "Women, Children, Elderly, and Sick, need to be taken to the pack house immediately. Go! Help everyone you can. Order all warriors to defend the pack house!" His alpha voice yelled to Lyle. "Maeve, Take the younger ones to your room and pack a bag with all four of your clothes. Go." Thea grabbed me while Mavie grabbed a screaming Liam. Running up the stairs in fright. I watched in fear as Mae grabbed three bags and Liam's diaper bag. Packing each one with our clothes. Occasionally she would run out of the for one of our clothes. I watched as she packed only clothes and a photo of the 6 of us in each pack. The only things that weren't clothing or a picture was in Liam's diaper bag. Thea grabbed a coat for each of us to put on. I pull on my coat as fast as I can while Mae ties my boots. Then we switch. Thea is putting a crying Liam's coat and shoes on as the window shatters open. A huge wolf with bright grey eyes menacingly growled at us. His teeth bared showing the blood dripping from his fangs. My eyes go wide with fear. Maeve pushes us behind her. "Run! 6354!" She screams at us. Tears cloud my eyes as I understand her coded message. 6 is Liam, 3 is Maeve, 5 is me, and 4 is Thea. Our secret code for emergencies. We were going to be parting ways. Maeve turned and faced the rouge in front of her. Thea dragged me out of the room with our bags and Liam in tow. Momma was at the bottom of the stairs running towards us. Grabbing me, Momma and Thea ran out the door towards the shelter.

Almost there. A loud whimpering growl fell over us. "Daddy!!!" I screamed running towards the sound. "No! Rosalie, Don't!" Momma tried to get me to come back to her, but I wasn't listening. I found him outside of our house lying on the ground. "Dad! No!" I lay my head on his chest. I couldn't lose him and Mavie. " Go Lia. It is okay. I love you, Darling." Dad spoke softly trying to keep from choking. "Dad! I won't leave you!" I told him forcefully. Dad went to say something else when he stopped moving. "Daddy! no no no nO NO nO NO NO NO No!" I screamed. I was violently ripped away from him by another rouge. This one was a shady blonde color with twigs and what appeared to be a finger in his mouth. Gross! I stood straight up ready to face her. She snapped at her bloody teeth at me. I ducked just in time on for her claws to catch my shoulder. She raked her talons through my skin like her claws were scissors and my flesh was paper. I cried out in agony. My vision wavering for a second before I watch her get tackled off of me. "Momma!" I cried out. Thea grabbed onto my good arm, pulling me towards the forest.

We ran for what seemed hours, yet in reality it was a mere few minutes. Thea quickly bandaged my shoulder with parts of my shirt as well as hers. "I have to go back. Don't argue. Take him and run. Don't look back. Just protect each other. There is some formula in the bags but you will run out before I find you. There is a human city not far from here. Find the money in Liam's bag and buy as much food for the two of you as you can. No Junk food. Hide in the trees, mask your scents like I taught you. Be careful and don't trust anyone. I will find you again Rosa. Now run." Thea spoke fast and it was hard to catch everything she said. I nodded holding onto Liam tightly.

I ran until I almost passed out. Following Thea's instructions I fed Liam and climbed a tree with Liam secured tightly against me with our bags and shirts. Liam slept soundlessly on my chest worn out from his screaming. I couldn't sleep. Thoughts of the night's events clouded my mind.

Flashback over.

Liam lay huddled in my arms, his soft curls framing his face. We arrived at Our spot Earlier in the day. I still had no idea what I was going to do. For now though I would protect Liam. I would find Thea soon enough. Tears streaked my cheeks as I looked down at the baby that lay blissfully oblivious to what had happened. If only I had been so lucky.
