It was a cool winter morning in the emerald pack and eight year old Yvonne and her parents were in the kitchen preparing for the full moon festival that was celebrated every last full moon of the year. The full moon festival, was a day all the werewolves and lycans alike, celebrated the moon goddess, appreciating her for seeing them through another year, making sacrifices and asking her to guide them through the next year.
lt was Yvonne second favorite day of the year after her birthday, because her ever-busy father was always at home to celebrate with them while her mother would prepare delicious meals and buys her stunning clothes and shoes for the special occasion.
The full moon festival event is similar to what the humans celebrates every year as the new year's day event.
As mother and daughter paced around in the kitchen, they heard a series of strange and unusual sounds.
At first, her parents thought it was other wolves celebrating noisily or the Alpha was passing through the land as he usually does every festival day, but after a mindful listen, they discovered that it wasn't any of those.
"Honey, could you please go outside and see what is happening out there?" Yvonne father, Adolph Beeman asked her mother Jessie Beeman.
"Adolph, you should go yourself. As you can see, I'm busy," Jessie retorted.
"What's wrong Jess?" He asked, placing his hand on her shoulder and patting her.
"You never help around the house, even when you're here. Now Adolph, I can't leave what I'm doing, so you better go and see for yourself.
"I'm sorry babe, please... Okay just this once,” he tickled her waist making her giggle.
"Fine, fine.. let me go and see for myself,” She agreed. "But you will finish the preparation, including cleaning,” She smirked.
"I will, your highness,” he curtseyed with sarcasm.
"I hope Yvonne marries a better man that will take care of her and go out of his way to see that she's not stressed at all," Jessie said as she walked out of the kitchen.
Jessie peeped through the window to see that some rogue wolves were entering people's houses, destroying things and killing innocent wolves. She almost screamed when she saw they were coming towards her house.
"Adolph, take Yvonne and run, they are here to kill and destroy,” Jessie screamed walking backwards with fear.
"Who are they?" Adolph ran out just in time to see one of the rogue wolves ripping out his wife's heart and pouring wolfsbane inside the empty space that once contained her heart.
"Please.. save... Save my baby, save my daughter... Please Adolph..." Jessie coughed blood out.
"Mummy!" Little Yvonne exclaimed as she saw what was happening to her mother.
Adolph carried his daughter and started running away through the back door and the wolf that killed his wife started running after them. He ran outside the house to the streets and the wolf was still after him.
It got close to them and pushed Adolph to the ground with his daughter. Adolph fell in his stomach, using his two hand to guide Yvonne's head in a bid to prevent her from getting injured.
The wolf was about to pounce on them, when they heard a gunshot. Adolph froze, thinking it was shot at him, but he turned carefully to see the wolf that just pushed him on the ground, blood gushing out if it's body as it returned slowly to it's human form.
Another wolf was coming for them, but was shot as well. The bullet came right on time to save Adolph and his daughter Yvonne. Then Adolph raised his head to see some of their pack warriors with guns killing the rogue wolves.
He hugged his daughter firmly, crying for his wife and wishing he never sent her to see what was happening outside.
"Daddy, let's go and carry mummy,” Little Yvonne said to her crying father.
