"May?" Rafa whispered in shock, eyes widening in the late-night darkness. "You look..." he trailed off.

"Like someone who was forced to Shift alone, in the middle of a forest, because you left me there to die" I hissed. I was bitter, but I had a damn good reason to be.

"May, listen to me" he pleaded, bleeding heavily from the arrows.

"You will address her as Luna" Chris snapped angrily, voice hard as nails. His dark hair was pushed back and his pale skin shone with strength in the moonlight. As he spoke, the woman moved slightly. Chris raised his bow and she froze. "Don't move".

"Listen to them, Mia" Rafa breathed out, cringing in pain. "May has an amazing shot, if she wanted to kill me she would have done it by now".

"You will address her as Luna" Chris screamed, his voice so loud and powerful that even I was shocked. I snuck a glance at him out the corner of my eye, and I saw his eyes flashing in an unnatural way.

"The violence brings out the Wolf" I whispered to myself. Chris was close to his first Shift, had been even before I left, and I realised that this might just push him over the edge. He would Shift tonight, but I refused for it to become a Forced Shift. Rafa had done that to me, I would never let that happen to Chris.

"Look, please, my sister is hurt. Please, we need help" the girl, Mia, cried out. Before I thought of her as a woman, but closer up I can see she is probably my age possible even slightly younger. I glance from her to her sister, who lays on the ground.

It's hard to tell the other girls age because of how she looked. Her dark hair was short and pixie like, and that was the only part of her that could be considered 'girly'. She was tall and muscly, with a collection of scars across her face. She looked fierce. Even unconscious and bleeding, I wouldn't want to meet her in a dark alley.

"What happened?" I demanded, keeping my bow poised on Rafa but turning to Mia.

"We were attacked. Kim was stabbed and the knife was covered in Wolf's Bane. She's not healing" Mia explained. Before I could reply, my phone began going off in my pocket. Chris and I shared a look, before I stepped back and Chris took my position with his bow poised.

I lowered my bow and answered my phone. "We have a situation" I said, knowing it was Seth before I'd looked or said anything.
