Prologue

The Chi-Tsuki Clan is the most notorious clan in Freeze City, killing mercilessly, raiding relentlessly and feared among all the other clans. They have no allies, and no one knows how, but they have never lost in a single fight. The most amazing thing is that there are all female, all under 20 and all beautiful and there are only 6 of them. No one knows what they look like, for they always wear black cloaks with red hoods when they are hunting. They each only carry two weapons, a small handgun, the barrels always full, and a small knife. Never have they shot a single bullet nor pulled a single knife from its sheath, yet their opposing gang leaders are always found dead. Each dead rival is always found in an ally, and on each one's neck there is a perfect imprint of 1two sharp teeth, 6 on one side, and 6 on the other. Each one's eyes are still open with a look of shock, fear, and horror on their faces, and there is never any trace anyone was ever there, other than the red moon drawn with the victim's blood on the wall beside the victim. Chi-Tsuki means Blood Moon. They have never killed with out being provoked, and their attacks always are planed the exact same time and way; On the night of a full moon, one will lure the opposing gang leader into a back ally, then say, "The moon is looking redder tonight, is it not?" and those are the last words the man will ever hear, and every one knows that when they can hear a howl in the wind, the Chi-Tsuki Clan has killed another. Perhaps the most shocking about the Chi-Tsuki Clan is that they are Wolves. They can last for days on only moonlight, and can deceive human eyes with ease. They can transform effortlessly into a human, though it is only an illusion. If their emotions are strong enough, it becomes impossible to hold the illusion. Of course, as with every species, there are a few exceptions with humans. A select few have the gift to look past the illusion, and see Wolves in their true forms. There are many reasons Wolves must disguise their true forms, though the most prominent of them are that Wolves are extinct, or at least the humans believe so, as it has been for 300 years. Almost all could not tell the difference from a dog and a Wolf, even though a Wolf is much bigger. Every human has been told stories of how evil a Wolf is, and each human has an instinctual as well as physiological fear of these beings, though none know of their ability to deceive. Though human technologies cannot be deceived for they have no brain to be deceived. If a Wolf has its picture taken in human form, a surprisingly large dog will be sitting in the Wolf's place. If its reflection in a mirror or water is gazed upon, there will be Wolf in the reflection For three centuries, Wolves have been hiding among humans, not ever really feeling like they belong. Some don't even know that they are wolves, yet, in the final year this dying earth has left, they will finally rise up, and break their oppressing chains, for I am here to tell you the story of the Chi-Tsuki Clan…
