Aurora knew that it was crazy to be out in the woods so late but she needed to get away from the arguing before she went completely insane.
However, the usually peaceful atmosphere of the night wasn't present on that particular night as the sounds of hounds braying echoed through the trees.
How she hated that sound, especially since it usually meant that the dogs were on the trail of prey and she could only hope that they didn't catch whatever it was they were chasing.
However, before she could really decide what to do, the sound of brush breaking caused her to whirl around only to see a half-grown fawn standing there, quivering with erect and flicking ears.
"You hear the dogs too huh?" She said aloud, despite how silly that it seemed.
The deer glanced over at her, standing stalk still for seemingly few minutes before walking right by her before breaking into a run away from the braying of hounds that grew closer.
Suddenly, however, there was a yelp then a deep howl that seemed to come from everywhere all at once.
A sound that in her fifteen years living near the wood, she had never heard.
Then all was silent.
It was in this silence that she became aware of a pair of green-gold eyes watching her from the shadows.
Judging by the high of the eyes, this was no animal although Aurora couldn't be sure if it was completely human either.
"Hello?"
She called, taking a step forward.
"You can come out, I won't hurt you."
The resulting chuckle caught her by surprise.
"You're quite the foolhardy one, aren't you?"
Aurora was about to respond when she found herself encased in a golden glow and that was the last thing she remembered when she awoke in her bed the next morning.
