Chapter One

She sipped her herbal tea in silence as she sat in the main room. Raven, sorceress and daughter of Trigon, appreciated the peace and quiet of the night, after everything with the Brotherhood of Evil. Slowly, the waning moon rose to the east of the city, the soft light illuminating the buildings. Never before had she noticed, but in the quiet she heard low howls from the forest. Not human, but deeper than any normal wolf in the forests.

"Just the wind." She said to herself, watching the lights of the city turn on to drown out the natural view of the stars above.

The creatures ran through the woods, claws and fangs glistening in the moonlight. They had been seen by a pair of weak humans, and that was not acceptable. The couple had no chance to escape them.

With a brief scream from the man's lips, they were torn apart quickly.

"Well Brother, you did well this time." The Alpha female said to the Omega male dryly as she licked blood from her claws. Her fur was pitch black and her eyes a dark green that held a great degree of sadism in them. She grinned, her chops dripping the blood of the humans.

The Omega nodded slowly, waiting for the Alphas and Betas to fill their bellies before he did. He looked remarkably like his sister, only his eyes were softer and his stance more submissive. A half hour later, he ate his fill of flesh. He looked up to the moon in the sky and sighed. "Another month until the full moon." He said softly, knowing full well what was going to happen soon again.

"This is Summer Wilkins for the Jump City News." A young woman with soft blonde hair said into her microphone. "Hikers this morning had just found the bodies of a man and woman apparently out on a date. Both bodies were cannabalized with both hearts taken. It is unknown who could have comitted such a crime, but as more information is released by the police we will report it."

Robin, the fearless leader of the Teen Titans, turned the television off. He turned to his team and looked to each one of them. "We have no idea who or what did this. It could be a ritual murderer, some kind of crazy animal, or anything at all. Once the police know what's going on can we move in."

Beast Boy, the green animal shapeshifter, shook his head. "Dude, that's messed up. We should just go in now and kick ass!" He said, sickened by the thought of cannibalism made as stomach lurched.

"We must not let these criminals escape! We should go now and avenge these murders!" Starfire, the Tamaranian princess, said with a rising rage, eyes glowing a fierce green. "My people would have gladly executed such monsters."

The cybernetic enhanced teen, Cyborg, frowned. "Ya'll gotta calm down. The police can do this on their own. Let's just worry about the big fishes first, then we can go after those sicks fuckers."

Raven looked up from her book. "Maybe. Or maybe we should see what the police has right now. I'm sure Robin could help them with their investigation." She said. "At least one of us would be helping look into this."

Robin nodded. "She's got a point. Cyborg, while I'm helping the police you'll lead the Titans. I'll keep you all up to date with any information I can get." He said, tapping a few keys into the computer. "There, the police will be expecting me shortly. Titans, take care." The Boy Wonder said, walking out. "If anything happens call me. I'll be to you guys as soon as possible."

Craig looked to the den of his pack as he curled up on the ground. Though it was nearing summer, there was a small blanket of cold that would wrap itself around him. He was the Omega, the lowest of his pack. No mating rights at all, and he was always last for everything else.

He felt paws on his back, claws digging into his flesh. "You failed last night Brother. Those humans saw us because of you." His sister growled in his ear. "You know what must be done now."

Craig felt cold inside. He hated his sister, how she treated him like this. Jennifer pushed him onto his back and clenched her jaws around his shoulder. "Don't move, you remember what happened last time." She said darkly as he whimpered in pain and fear.
