A shadow flits through the snowy terrain, hidden stumps and holes, and trees as the sounds of gunshots echoed in the night from the people chasing her, trying to shoot at her with bullets and darts to slow her down. Some of the bullets got through her body but she managed to dodge the darts. She ran thorugh the snowy terrain, dodging the trees, stumps, holes hidden under the snow, and ice patches.

She came to a stop at the edge of the cliff with the only way down is the icy river. She heard them as they are getting closer and chose to jump into the river, grabbing the rock and shivering from the plunging temperature of the water. She sensed them, looking for her and their auras got angry as they left after presuming she won't survive from the cold.

She popped out of the water, gasping as she felt the loss of body heat and blood loss are affecting her and spoke few words. She slipped into the darkness, not feeling something grabbing her.

-New Orleans

A icy blue canine came out of nowhere with the injured girl on his back landed on his feet. They are in the land that belong to her mother's side of family covered by spells that repelled humans and anyone with magical or deity bloodline. It has the small mansion, stable for horses, and large area of land devoted to gardening and farming.

The canine went inside the mansion which has mix of Japanese and Chinese style interior which feel not extravagant but homey. He laid her on the bed and look at her injuries. He gathered his magic and pressed his paw on the floor as he dark purple magic circle appeared. A male with short amber hair and dark silver eyes wearing a black T-shirt, jeans, and a doctor's coat appeared with a medical tool box in his left hand. The doctor looked at the injured girl in alarm as he look over her injuries and shivering from hypothermia.

"What the hell happened here?!" The doctor cursed as he take out the tools in the box.

"That organization happened, Bai." The canine replied.

Bai's face twitched as he quickly cut off the wet and cold clothes. He start to pull the bullets from the wounds on the left shoulder, right side of stomach, left hip, center of her neck, and right ankle. He applied the salve that can close the wounds up and put the clean clothes on her. Bai put the warm blanket on her and sat down on the chair.

"Tell me, Light." Bai said. "What are orders from Madame Saito?"

"Get training for twins. Wolf and Dog get training as well. Keep on the old fool." Light replied. "So, Madame Saito want the twins to be trained by people that Hotaru and Cathal used to know."

Bai glanced at the sleeping girl and nodded in understanding. He grabbed his box and vanished into thin air. Light looked at the girl and laid down to sleep. Few days later, the girl finally woke up and slowly pushed herself up, wincing from the pain from now-closed wounds. Light came in thorugh the opened door and saw she has woke up at last.

"Hello, Aine." Light spoke, catching her attention.

Aine turned her head to look at her summon. Her aura is tired and worn-out.

"Where am I?" Aine asked.

"New Orleans." Light asked.

"I see. What's your name and I apologize for being rude, what are you? Aine asked.

"Not a problem. I am a IceLight Wolf and weirdly enough, my name is Light." Light said, a flash of irritation in the bright lilac eyes.

Aine tilted her head in agreement and let out a sigh, feeling deep pain in her body. Aine got of the bed and wandered over to the window screen, looking outside with a tired expression.

"Light, Are Ash still in New Orleans?" Aine said.

Light nodded as she sat down on the chair and looked at the moon hanging in the sky.

"I want my brother and uncles to come here and to stay in New Orleans." Aine said.

Light again nodded by her polite request.

"I'm going to see Madame Saito." Light spoke as he vanished.

Aine glanced at the sky, a sad smile flitted across her face and gone in the next.

"Wait for me, I will see all of you soon." Aine said. "So is my brother."
