A full moon.

"Great" A girl grumbled, she closed her window, she was still scared of wolves getting in through her window

Distant howls pierced the night.

"No, that can't be possible" she mumbled, she must of heard the howls, she noticed that her hearing was better than usual, her eyesight as well, she shook her head and went into the next room

"Lilly are you Ok dear?" the girl's mother asked

"Yes I'm fine" Lilly growled, she didn't mean to, it sounded very animal-like

"Lilly, what did I teach you about control" Lilly's mother scolded "we don't want 'him' coming after you now do we, and anyway the red wolf moon is only 5 days away"

Lilly shuddered when her mother mentioned 'the red wolf moon' it was called that because it was a special Lunar Eclipse that turned the moon the colour of blood and it was going to be Lilly's first transformation, she already had the attributes of a werewolf, the gold eyes, increased senses and increased strength and agility, she was a little nervous because it was her first transformation but the thing she was most scared of was running into Dante, he was the son of Sparda and also he was a demon hunter, Lilly had a few close calls with him, he almost shot her once when she was walking through the woods on her own and that was the day she got bitten and that was over 2 months ago, it was scary knowing that she had to end up killing him before he killed her.

Lilly sniffed "Mum get down, it's one of Dante's scouts" she warned her defenseless mother

Her mother ducked, Lilly jumped out of the window and landed on a tree , she then crawled up the branch to see what was happening

"Don't think I can't see you" a familiar voice called

"Dammit" Lilly whispered to herself

Dante managed to climb the tree it was a struggle for him because he didn't have the strength or agility like Lilly did

"You know I actually haven't seen the colour of your eyes yet" Dante tried talking to Lilly, but Lilly never let anyone see her eyes because of the wolf

"No, you can't" Lilly panicked, if Dante saw her eyes he would shoot her on the spot

"Just a peek, pretty please" Dante lifted Lilly's fringe, he gasped and stepped back, he pulled out his gun and aimed it at her head

"Please, you don't have to do this" Lilly started crying.

"I have to, I wish I didn't though but I want to rid this world of demons, demons like you" Dante said, his finger on trigger

"Please" Lilly was sobbing "I don't want to die"

"I'm sorry" Dante said as he pulled back the trigger, Lilly had her eyes closed and for those brief seconds she thought about what it would be like to have a normal life, no wolf, no discrimination. The bullet didn't hit her, but why

"I'm gonna give you a 5 minute head start, so you better start running whilst I still think of a torture method, if I catch you" Dante laughed demonically

Lilly ran as fast as she could, her heart was beating fast, the adrenaline rushing, it had caused her to transform before the red wolf moon, but she didn't black out she could still keep consciousness whilst in wolf form, but she covered more ground as a wolf, it felt amazing being a wolf she felt so free, so wild, so calm, running against the current of the wind in the still of night, but then she snapped out of the daze she was in because she realized that she was running away from a hunter trying to catch the big bad wolf, of course it was the end for her if she got caught.

Lilly ran until she found a cave, she knew that werewolves never got tired but she felt dead as a doormat, she transformed back and it wasn't painful at all not like people said, a mysterious figure came out of the shadows, Lilly was growling

"Show yourself!" Lilly growled

"It's too late to turn back, they're coming" the figure spoke with mighty words, it had seemed to be forging something out of silver, it was an 8 pointed star, the figure walked over to Lilly and it put the star necklace around Lilly's neck, it burned because werewolves were not to go near silver at all

"What is this for, it burns so much" Lilly winced

"Control" it was the one word that opened Lilly's eyes because she realized she had a great power that couldn't be controlled unless the moon was full

Lilly stayed in the cave until morning where she turned into a wolf she still kept her mind conscious and she kept the wolf's mind at bay, she headed north, the only city she was heading for was Gotham her aunt and uncle lived there, she entered the city, for once the wolf felt alone and scared so did Lilly but it was better than being shot in the head by Dante, she knocked on the door of her aunt and uncle's apartment and her cousin answered it

"Lilly is that you" Lilly's cousin asked and she hugged her

"Yes it's me" Lilly smiled

"My how you've grown, by the way your aunt and uncle are on holiday so it's just me and you if you're staying here" Lilly's cousin informed her younger cousin

"Ok are you good at keeping secrets" Lilly asked

"Sure, I believe everything" Lilly's cousin told her

"Ok, I'm a werewolf, if you don't believe me here's proof" Lilly said as she pinned back her fringe to reveal her aureate eyes

"Whoa that's cool" Lilly's cousin said in a surprised manner

"I also have to wear this thing" Lilly pointed to the silver star

"What does it do" Lilly's cousin asked

"It controls the wolf inside of me, and it also stops me from rampaging and killing stuff, I'm so sorry to spring this on you, Delilah promise me that you won't tell anyone about this" Lilly asked Delilah

"I promise" Delilah made a pinkie promise

Suddenly there was a loud bang on the door, Lilly could smell who it was

"Delilah, what ever you do don't open that door just run" Lilly growled

"Ok" Delilah raised her eyebrows

"Run, now!" Lilly yelled

Lilly opened the door, Dante grabbed Lilly by the hair, but Lilly had a plan

"You know, I have had it with you because you're just an animal, nothing more, nothing less" Dante yelled at Lilly

"Did anyone ever tell you not to mess with a werewolf!" Lilly shouted as she turned into a wolf and she jumped out of the window

"Hey, come back here" Dante yelled after her he managed to shoot at her and it hit her shoulder, the bullet was made out of silver, and Lilly ignored the pain she kept running until she got to an alley way, it was a dead end, she couldn't hold it in anymore she turned back into a human and she screamed in pain, the silver it had burned leaving a bleeding wound, which normally Lilly could heal up in 5 seconds.

"See I know exactly how to hunt your kind" Dante chuckled

"Please...don't kill me" Lilly sobbed

"For years I've been protecting you, but now I have to kill you because you're possessed by a demon that only I can deal with" Dante sighed "Oh well I guess this will be fun"

"Take one more step towards her and I will rip you in half like a piece of paper" a boy with black hair and blue eyes threatened Dante

"Oh yeah who said you interrupt my hunting session" Dante said

"You're hurting inocent people for no reason" the mysterious boy said

He grabbed Dante by the shirt which made Dante look defenseless

"Beat it punk" the boy gritted his teeth

Dante panicked and he ran as fast as he could

"Are you Ok" the boy asked as he helped her up

"No" Lilly answered sniffing, still clutching her shoulder

"My names Conner by the way" he smiled at Lilly

"I'm Lilly" Lilly winced

"We should probably get you sorted out, can I look at that" he asked Lilly as he inspected the wound "you're a werewolf right, you've got silver poisoning"

"How'd you know that" Lilly asked

"I've seen these wounds before in a book" Conner told her

"It hurts" Lilly complained

"It will until I get those silver fragments out, and who was that, you know, the one that was about to plant a bullet in your skull" Conner asked

"That was Dante he's like a demon hunter" Lilly told him
