Prolog

The sound of growls woke her from a sleep she didn't remember falling into. Rolling over she found the warmth of moss underneath her. Her confusion wasn't allowed long as the cries of a child met her ears.

Drawing a sword from her sheath she moved with a lithe elegance. Moving around large dark trees as the sounds grew closer. A fierce howl pierced the night as she heard something land behind her. A heavy breath caused goose bumps to rise on her skin.

"You are a beautiful female." A growl seeped into her ear. "My pack would accept you as their Alpha female." She felt a clawed finger on her neck, but did not flinch away.

"Where's the child?" She asked her voice harsh and threatening.

"Becoming something better." He growled his claw moving down her back.

"You will regret touching me Greyback." Her voice was now soft and monotone. Not an ounce of emotion lay in it.

"Then you know of me? I did not know my reputation reached so far." Her grip tightening around her sword was the only give away as she turned and slashed the werewolf in the stomach.

He hissed and howled stumbling back as she stared at him through her long curls. He snarled and looked up at her as a bit of blood dripped from the large cut.

"You will pay for this." Her stance told him that she was ready for whatever came next.

With teeth bared he lunged at her. With the silver handle of her sword she plunged the blade quickly through him, but not before his claws snagged her shoulder. She cried out as the handle hit his blood causing it to boil and burn as it slowly poisoned and killed him.

With her good arm she pulled out the sword and fell to her knees. She was about to fall onto the ground until she heard the sounds of a child's whimper.

Looking around at the bushes through the darkness a sandy haired boy came to her sight.

"Come here." She croaked still on her knees and still losing great amounts of blood.

The boy slowly came to her as she ripped part of her robes and held it to her shoulder to stop the blood flow.

"You were bitten." She whispered taking a look at the arm the boy cradled. The boy could only nod through his tears. "And you know what will happen next?" He nodded once more before letting out a particularly loud sob.

She touched the boys face with her good hand. Before turning to her belt and pulling out a few phials, she uncorked one for him and handed it to him.

He hesitated a moment before she spoke once more. Her voice had become kind, losing the emotionless monotone voice and becoming human once more. "It will help with the pain and stop the blood flow." She whispered before uncorking her own and downing it. He seemed to follow her actions and after a while his sobs disappeared.

"Now, go home, clean up and read of werewolves. You must understand the dangers of your condition." She whispered as her body began to loose energy.

He nodded once more and stood. Slowly he walked away but stopped once to look back at her as he did so.

After the last of the boy had left her view she allowed her body to fall to the ground. Moss met her once more as her eyes began to close. "Finally I am done." She whispered. But a light enveloped the woman leaving only a dead werewolf behind.
