Chapter 2
Flashback two months ago
A pitch black wolf with a grey under belly walked out of his secluded den with a long yawn. Sitting down, he began to savor the warmth of the morning sunrise bathing his fur and the cool breeze brushing across his face.
"Enjoying the great Jasper park weather I see." A female wolf said with an amused tone in her voice as she walked up behind him. "It's good to see you Joseph." He immediately recognized the voice and a smile appeared on his face. "You too Sarah." He said as he turned to look at the now mature young adult wolf behind him. She turned out to be very beautiful, any guy would fall for her in a heartbeat.
The grey fur mixed with a white underbelly covered her slender body well and her brown eyes met with Joseph's green eyes. This wolf was none other than his younger happy go lucky sister Sarah who was an alpha for the southern pack. Being an omega, she always teased him when they were pups but he knew she never meant to hurt his feelings. Every few weeks she comes to visit him just to give him some company knowing that he prefers not to have any social interaction with anyone.
"Is it okay if I sit with you? I know how you like your privacy and all." Sahe asked with a worried look making sure her older brother still likes having her around. "Of course you can Sarah, there is no one else I'd rather have by my side." He replies with a huge grin on his face.
Relieved to hear this, She walked up to him and gave him a hug. "Thank you big brother, you have no idea how happy I am to hear that." Tears start to form in her eyes.
"Why are you crying?" He asked confused and shocked by her sudden change of attitude. He hated seeing her upset, she is always the type of wolf to lift everyone's mood no matter how upset they are. He liked that about her, it worked on him many times.
"I miss you Joseph, mother misses you too, she couldn't stop worrying about you after you left." Sarah's voice starts to break. "Father left the day after you were gone to fight in the war, but I could tell he was just as upset as we were."
Joseph, mortified on what he learned from his family breaks the hug and looks at her right in the eyes. "Forgive me Sarah I never knew how much I hurt you guys, but you know why I wanted to leave." She nods remembering his reason for having left his family.
He never told his family the real reason why he left, he wanted nothing but solitude and to live his life in peace with no one to bother him. It's just who he was. He lied to his parents and said he wanted to explore the world and find adventure in his travels. Only his sister knew the real reason and she promised not to tell them.
"There's something else I have to tell you." Sarah said with a now serious tone. "Our father is returning in a few days and mother would really appreciate it if you would come for a visit."
"Of course I will, I have to make up for all the agonizing torture I inflicted on you guys while I was gone anyway." He says with a light chuckle.
"You got that right!" She giggled.
With both their moods lightened up they both look out at the view in front of them.
The sun shined brightly on the tall trees and grassy plains. The river out in the distance was flowing ever so smoothly, they could see caribou drinking from the river.
"Hey Joseph, feel like getting something to eat I'm starving." She asked realizing both of them haven't had breakfast yet.
"Yeah I was just thinking about that." He replied, water now forming in his mouth after seeing the caribou.
"Well let's head out, and Joseph thanks again for doing this, mom and dad will be thrilled to see you again." She said with such joy in her voice.
"Your welcome." He replied smiling at his sister. "I realize now I've been gone for too long, and I indeed miss them very much."
Sarah got up from her spot and hugged him again. "I love you big brother."
"I love you too little sis, always." He was happy to have her with him again.
Present time
Joseph was starting to calm down after his sudden burst of rage, his entire face covered in blood. He started to look around him and he was horrified at what he saw.
It was a brutal massacre
Piles upon piles of bloodied bodies littered what used to be green but was now crimson red grass.
He stood there frozen in place processing what he has just done.
"These wolves were innocent, they didn't deserve to die." Joseph thought in his head with a huge wave of guilt now hitting him.
He looked down at his bloody paw with what used to be green eyes filled with kindness, but were now demonic bright yellow. The eyes of a monster.
A single scar used to run across his right paw and this brought Him back to that sudden flashback of his sister that has just occurred.
After having breakfast with her on that day Sarah had to head back to the southern pack's territory to be with their mom to make sure she was alright.
She came up with an idea of her cutting Joseph's right paw and Joseph cutting her left paw. Sure it hurt, but it was worth it.
"To show that will we will always be together no matter where we are." That was Sarah's last words to him before she left that day.
But the scar had vanished due to his body healing any cuts, bruises, and scars that were inflicted on him before he resurrected. In the past and during his murder. Joseph was furious.
That scar made him happy, it let him know that his sister was always there beside him.
A sudden realization hit him like a truck and he immediately fell to the ground bursting into tears.
He has broken a promise to his sister, one that he swore to never break.
Flashback, two days after Sarah's visit, the day of his death and resurrection
"Please Joseph, please don't drink or shed any innocent blood I beg you, promise me you won't." Was her exact words.
"I promise little sis, I will never do such a thing, you have my word." He answered with a smile.
This was the day when she found out what he really was. She thought he was dead, but once she returned home later that day after Joseph and their parents were murdered she saw a menacing figure looking down at her dead parents. Then it looked up at her with terrifying yellow glowing eyes that will haunt her for the rest of her life.
Sarah screamed and tried to run away from the creature, but it immediately caught up to her and pinned her down with ease. She closed her eyes and waited for death's cold embrace to take her.
"Sarah please don't be afraid it's me your big brother." It says to her in a calm voice.
She couldn't believe it, she opened her eyes and looked at him. "Joseph?" She said with both shock and a bit of relief.
He let her up and kept a safe distance away from her.
"W..what on earth ha...happened to you?" She stuttered, still completely afraid of him.
Joseph was upset to see her so scared of him. Like a pup after a scary story and he was the nightmare that wakes them up in the middle of the night.
"It's...complicated, but I promise to explain everything later right now you..." he stopped talking and he was staring at her with a new look in his face.
"Brother, are... are you alright?" She asked fear rising in her once again.
"You need to leave, now." He said looking away from her. "I'm getting really thirsty right now, I..I can smell your blood." He added with a new sense of hunger in his voice.
"Joseph please I don't understand!" She yelled confused with this new side of him.
"Sarah please...GOOO!" He screamed in a terrifying demonic voice as he looked at her and she saw him bare his teeth at her and growled menacingly. She noticed his teeth were not like anything she has ever seen before. They were all much longer and sharper, but his canine teeth were bigger and longer than any of his other teeth.
Sarah scared for her life immediately started running away from him not looking back once.
He was afraid that if she would've stayed any longer she would be his first victim.
He drank blood from a caribou that day. He never felt more alive.
Present day
After that day, Joseph remembered her coming back still filled with fear, but she knew he would never hurt her. He admired her bravery for coming to see him again.
He explained everything to her. It took him almost half an hour.
Sarah overwhelmed and at a loss for words after what he explained to her thinks for quite a while.
He was afraid that she was thinking of leaving him.
That was when she made him promise to her. A promise that he swore to keep.
Now he has just broken that promise.
Joseph felt like a traitor, Sarah trusted him to keep his promise and he just betrayed her trust. She doesn't know about his attack yet but it will only be a matter of time before news spreads about this massacre and her finding out about it. She will know it was him who did it. She will think of him as a monster now.
He was still on the ground crying his heart out. "I'm sorry Sarah, I'm so sorry." He said to himself with such regret in his voice.
A few minutes later he stands up and looks further torwards northern Jasper knowing that the remaining northern pack wolves were residing there.
He realized that he wiped out most of the northern pack just by himself, but he knew that couldn't be all of them because he did not see Marcus the leader of the pack. He didn't take part in the death of Joseph and his parents, but he knew for sure that he ordered the attack.
Now he remembers why he came to northern Jasper. A new look of determination appears on his face, he must complete his quest for revenge, Marcus must die. He starts to walk torwards the northern pack's territory, ready to pierce his fangs in Marcus's neck and drain him dry. This time he will spare the rest if they dont get in his way, he only wants Marcus.
"Forgive me Dawn, but this must be done."
Joseph's childhood friend, daughter of Marcus.

Let me know what you think because this is my first fanfic that I ever wrote. If you have any advice feel free to let me know. See y'all later.
