Winter Fury-

Snow Drift bounded down the stairs, only to stop when she saw strangers.

'They must be who Muwtrea and Verwtren were talking about during sleep time' she gave a hum and quietly stalked up to them to get a better look.

One of them, the one that smelled of blood, had brown fur on his head, tan skin and wore strange 'clothing'. The other, the one with a dark aura around him, had black fur and skin that was similar shades with Muwtrea, he smelled like Muwtrea as well.

'Kworine!' the hatchlet chirped in excitement, 'this must be Muwtrea's sib! My Kworine!'

Kworine opened his eyes, they were a beautiful gold and silver. He took her in and smiled.

"Hello, I've never seen your type of Fury before" his voice was soft and kind, "why are you here?"

Muwtrea and Verwtrenhad me but don't like other's knowing about me! Snow Drift growled happily as she sniffed the two, so, they hide me whenever we have guests!

Kworine didn't answer, but by his body language, Snow Drift could tell he understood.

"Snow!"

Snow Drift jumped and turned, she saw her Muwtrea and also saw panic in her eyes.

"Get away from them" Muwtrea ordered in body language.

Snow Drift scampered away from the new ones and towards her.

Muwtrea? What's wrong with them? Snow Drift asked, wanting to know why Muwtrea didn't seem to trust her sib.

"We don't know them!" she responded stiffly.

'Not know them? How can Muwtrea not know her own sib? Didn't they hatch together?' Snow Drift was about to ask just that when Verwtren entered.

Verwtren!

Snow Drift raced over and leapt into his arms, using her wings for balance as she climbed.

"How do you have a Winter Fury?"Kworine demanded, his body stiff, "shouldn't they be extinct?"

"Winter Fury?" Verwtren asked.

"Extinct?" Muwtrea tilted her head.

"Yeah, Winter Fury. Hunted to extinction hundreds of thousands of years ago. Shouldn't be alive today?" Kworine stated.

Muwtrea? Who is Extinction? Snow Drift asked, Why was Extinction being hunted?

"Extinction isn't anyone, it means that something is no longer around" Muwtrea explained, glaring at Kworine, "how do you know this?"

"I was there"

The response confused Snow Drift, she thought humans only lived to one zero zero?

"What are you?" Verwtren demanded, his blue eyes darkening.

"Spirit, more specifically, Spirit of Darkness and Shadows"

Snow Drift instantly understood, Spirits could live for as long as the Earth if they are healthy, Muwtrea and Verwtren read to her about them a week after she hatched.

"Spirit?" Verwtren asked softly before looking at the other, who was awake now, "is he a Spirit too?"

"No, Eugene is human" Kworine said.

"Then what hit him" Muwtrea demanded, "Spirits and humans get hurt by different things, the smallest of wounds on a Spirit could kill a human"

Kworine hesitated before giving in, he pulled out a strange sharp object and Snow Drift felt the instinct to flee and get away fill her. She didn't know why.

Verwtren stiffened, "a Cshwari?!"

Snow Drift whined and hid behind her parents.

The Spirit nodded and handed it over to Muwtrea's open hand. Muwtrea examined it, her eyes holding worry and distant fear.

"Cshwari wounds cannot be healed with simple herbs. Jake get me snow. Snow Drift, I need some of your saliva"

Muwtrea ran to the kitchen and came back with a bowl. Snow Drift let her saliva drip into the bowl until her Muwtrea told her it was enough. Verwtren came back inside and placed the snow in the bowl. Muwtrea poured a strange liquid into the bowl before stirring. The liquid, saliva and snow created a thick paste.

Muwtrea proceeded in taking off the gauze and wetted the area a bit before gently rubbing the paste on.

The inflammation went down almost instantly. Eugene relaxed and stared at it.

"Shouldn't you cover it?"

"No, the gauze will soak up the healing poultice and leave the paste useless" Verwtren explained.

"Oh, okay, thank you for your help" Kworine smiled, "we should get going"

Muwtrea nodded and handed the bowl of paste to Kworine, "apply the paste once a day"

"Thank you" The two left and Snow Drift watched them do so in confusion.

Muwtrea- Mother

Verwtren- Father

Kworine- Uncle
