Shadows Return

Prolouge

Ten Year's ago On the night of the full moon at the darkest hour:

as she ran through the forest the wind was blowing making it harder to tell if she was still being persued. She heard the sudden crack of a twig to her right she knew it was them she ran faster almost tripping over the roots of the trees that had once been her home that had now become her cage preventing her from getting away she got snagged in a bush and at that moment she heard footsteps closing in and she knew in that moment there was only one way left to get out of this situation she knew if they caught up to her they would kill her they couldnt let her live with all that she knew and all that has happened tonight her only choice was to kill them before they killed her with that thought in mind she broke free from the bush and turned around and headed full sprint in the direction that she came from she knew that if she succeeded tonight she could never go back to her home she had been betrayed who knows how deep the deception runs and she would be executed declared as mentally unstable and a dangerous murderer for killing some from her own clan she would never be given a change to defend herself and her actions. She felt the branches whip against her face with the speed she was traveling she broke through the trees into a clearing in the middle of the forest were she can remember playing tag during her childhood it saddems her to think that such an innocent joyful space will be whitness to such an act of betrayal and violence. As she stands there waiting the full moon shines bright behind her and the wolves howl as they feel the disturbing and tense atmosphere she can feel the moment when the clan wakes and relizes that something terrible is about to happen she also knows that they will be to late to prevent this and that it is the only viable course of action as soon as the thought passes through her head the world quiets in preperation for what is about to happen she hears the crunch of leaves and then across the clearing they step out as soon as they see her they pause as if they didnt expect to actual catch her but only for a moment before rushing forward blades extended this is it no turning back she waits for them to get closer sliding her daggers into the palms of her hands the moon light glinting of the steel and then she bursts into action and as the moon drifts across the sky a vicious battle takes place beneath at the sun touches the horizen all that is left is a blood bath with a single solidary figure in the center of it all. As she hears the many footsteps approach alerted to her location by the previous sounds of battle she says a last good bye to the trees of her past as she runs of into the sunrise. The trees reach out for her mourning the dead and loss of their fellow breathern but she just keept running labored by her injurys but still fast enough to stay ahead of her pursures as she was once again chased after through the forest forever lossing them she runs past the tree line into the vast forbbiden lands.
