Flashback

Elizabeth's POV
I sat on a cliff, the snow falling around me as the stars shined above. "I lost Cedric on a night like this," I whispered to the darkness. "Cedric, Cedric?" A little girl called of about nine. A figure jumped out of the bushes, making the girl scream. A boy of about sixteen with white hair and green eyes grabbed her. He placed her on the ground and… began to tickle her. The girl screamed in laughter. "Cedric stop! Uncle, mercy, aw, come on, Cedric!" The boy stopped.
The two of them walked through the woods on their way home. The snow crunched underneath their feet. They wanted to get home before sundown, it was a full moon, and a lot of murders had taken place under that moon. The sky darkened, and the two children hurried toward their house. Something snarled behind them, and they came across an empty shack. The two ran inside and hid in the darkest corner of the shack. They saw a shadow pass by the door. The girl tried to cry, but Cedric covered her mouth.
Something large hit the door. It backed up, and hit the door again, this time much harder. The door splintered, revealing a large wolf. A wolf that was standing on two legs. It stood in the doorway, hunched over, its golden eyes burning with an animalistic fire. It lunged at the girl, and Cedric jumped and took the attack. The wolf lunged at the girl again, this time biting her where her neck met her shoulder. She grabbed a sharp piece of wood from the splintered door and stabbed it, carving a shape on its shoulder. Even though a werewolf's injuries healed at sunrise, a werewolf could be scarred. I got a good look at the wolf's scar as it ran, a Celtic cross. I checked my brother's pulse. He was dead. I smiled, fingering the pentagram that was forming where I had been bitten. Bitten by a werewolf. "Do not worry, Brother, I'll avenge you."
