This is a very short chapter just a quick into into the main characters family history. I promise that all the other chapters will be MUCH longer then this. I hope you enjoy this story.
Prologue
Life. Something that the average person takes for granted. Average people do not have to hide a life or death secret, having to worry that others are hunting them, or at least use to. I was like that once, that was until my gift started showing. It was apparently a gift from the gods of my tribe to my ancestor that was thought lost.
I was half Quileute, both my grandmothers being from the Quileute tribe, my fathers father being from the Makah tribe and my mothers father being white making me also quarter Makeh and quarter white.
My gift came from my grandmothers tribe legend. There were several. The main being of the spirit wolves. The male warriors of the tribe were gifted with a spirit wolf which only awakened when pending danger was to occur against us by our number one enemy the cold ones. Then there was the legend which until a little less then five years ago was thought false. The legend of the council of four.
The council of four were women of our tribe gifted with divine powers to help along side the worrier wolves defending the village against the cold ones. They also helped healed the wolves when they were injured. Not much else was known about what sort of powers they possessed.
Legend says that during the massacre of the cold ones attacking our tribe, when the third wife sacrificed herself, three of the four women were killed. The one remaining alive needed to have a female child to carry on her gene to continue the use of the powers, however she was never able to have one.
Centuries have gone by since the occurrence of those legends. No female in the tribe had ever shown signs of the powers that were once possessed by our female ancestors. That was of course until my 13th year of life.
