As I walked around in the freezing cold of winter, I trip over a tree limb and stumble, falling to the ground. When I collect my belongings that I dropped, I step forward a few more paces and see smoke. "Shelter!" I cry as i rush to the smoke. Progressing through the harsh cold, I discover where the smoke is coming from. A gated fortress. I look on the gate and see claw-marks. What kind of beast could have made them? I knock on the gate only to be greeted with a cocked rifle pointed down at me. "Please let me in! I'm looking for shelter."I say as the man lowers his gun. He screams loudly."OPEN THE GATE! IT'S ANOTHER FEMALE!' Another? I think to myself as they open the gate. I ran in and blink."Thank you. Hello, I am Lilith Fitzgerald. I'm looking for my sisters. Ginger and Brigitte." I explain. All of a sudden, guns were being pointed at me. "Hey woah woah, what the hell is going on?" I say as the men growl. The leader, Pastor Norman after he introduced himself, says in a harsh voice."You are not welcome here, your sisters destroyed this place." The men grunt in agreement.
"Hold on, my sisters were here? When? I have to find them!" I say and walk up. The men growl. I smirk and my eyes flash gold."Weapons down boys. She wont hurt us. She's the key to getting our town back!" An old man says as he walks up. I smile softly , recognising him. "Murphy!' I say and hug him. He hugs back. "My dear girl, welcome to Fort Tyro. We have much to discuss. Come with me." He says and I walk with him. My eyes turn back to hazel and I walk with him to his cabin.
He asks me to sit down and makes some tea. "Your sisters caused quite a fuss. Ginger, the red head, turned into one of those beasts. We had to send her and Brigitte back out there." He says and I choke on my tea. "YOU WHAT?! They won't survive!" I yell as he sighs. "We had no choice dearest Lilith. But we need your help. They're attacking again." He looks to the gate as he says this. Almost sundown. "We better walk to the gate. Seeing as you are the original beast. It still lives in you and perhaps you can control them. I have known this since you were younger."
I nod and walk with him. Revenge circling my mind.
As soon as we get to the gate, we hear a snarling and growling. "They're here. Get on the post and look. " He instructs me. I nod and climb onto the post. One of the beasts looks at me. I growl. "GET BACK! NOW!" I snap at it and it growls but steps back. The man looks at me as he stands beside me."How did you do that? It is like they fear you!" he exclaims. I smirk and reply "I used to be one."
