Prologue: Beginnings
A small whisper could be heard through the fog covered woods, if anyone was looking for the voice they would have thought it came out of thin air, no one would see the tiny fragile body of the 4 year old girl in the middle of the clearing, it looked as though it was just a log in the woods.
"Momma, Papa" were the choked whispers being uttered. The beaten and battered little girl was curled in a ball shivering and shaking, all alone, a wall started to form to block out the memories of what had happened, all she could remember was the rogue attack and her big brother taking her and running but it wasnt the rogues who had hurt her but her brother who had done it." why, bubba, why? she asked as tears slid down her dirty face before she succumbed to the darkness again.
Through out the woods the howls of multiple wolf's could be heard, they had been running and searching for days for the Alphas son and daughter who had disappeared during the rogue attack. "Alpha, I picked up a smell, there's something off about it but it smells like it could be Nyla, but I dont smell Tate anywhere around her, I'm about 5 miles east of your current location I think she might be about a mile ahead of me, I'll keep proceeding and keep you updated." Beta William cut off the connection to his Alpha so he could concentrate on his surroundings just in case it was a trap, who knows what they had planned since it had been days since the attack and disappearance of Tate and Nyla.
The closer that William got to what he thought could possibly be Nylas scent he had the strongest urge to turn around and run the other direction not from danger but a feeling that what he was about to walk into is something he never would forget for as long as he lived the closer he got the unspeakable feeling of something utterly wrong overwhelmed him. As William slowly enters the clearing he doesnt see anything but Nylas scent and the overwhelming scent of blood begin to fill his nose, he sniffs the air and ground trying to find the source of the smell as he slowly walks through the clearing he sees a log but its shaking, "wait logs dont move." William rushes to it and finds Nyla "Alpha, I found her I found your little girl, hurry it doesnt look good!"
William shifted back into his body so he could properly look at Nyla and inspect any damage done to her, as he makes a mental note and tally of all her injuries. "Nyla, sweetheart wake up its William your daddy is on the way. " but Nyla's eyes dont even flicker she just keep shaking in her sleep. William keeps looking her over noticing the dried blood cake around her face and her beautiful Auburn hair caked in mud and blood, the healing injuries of being smacked in the face and her torn lips, her little fingernails crusted with skin and blood, bruised and ripped, her white sundress she had been wearing the day she disappeared no longer white but a dingy brown of mixed blood and dirt. "This little girl has been through hell it looks like, but it looks like she tried to fight them off she has always been a little spitfire." whispered William to himself
William heard rustling behind him as Alpha Xavier and the rest of the hunters start to pile into the clearing, Alpha Xavier approached Beta William and shifted into his human form to take his daughter. "William, was there anybody else here when you arrived, any signs of what could have happened? Xavier asks William "No Alpha, not even a sign of Tate, just Nyla here in the clearing I tried to wake her but she didnt even budge, except to keep shivering." Okay, William thank you for finding my baby, let's get her to the pack doctor as soon as possible."
Several hours later as they are pulling into the pack house a group of people are gathered out front waiting for their return. As the Alpha, Beta and their group of hunters pile out of the black suburbans Luna Celestia runs up to Xavier as he is carrying Nyla into the pack hospital. Celestia cries out with tears running down her face as she catches a glimpse of Nyla "Oh, my God what happened to my little girl!" "shhh love, the doctors will look at her and all will be well." William whispers to Celestia.
"Please, wait outside we need to throughly look at Nyla and see what damage has been done, go rest or speak to your people to calm their nerves it's been a harrowing few days with all the people we have lost and those that were injured, we will let you know when were done." the steely eyed doctor says to the Alpha and Luna. He hastily walks back into the room where Nyla is and starts inspecting her as him and the nurse are undressing her to wash her up and inspect for injuries they notice dried blood and semen on her thighs......"oh my god Darrius was she molested, did the rogues do this, how could they violate a 4 year old shes just a baby!" the nurse cried out. "Shhh Starla, it's okay let's look at how bad the damage is it looks like her body has already been slowly healing itself which is odd since she hasn't came into her wolf yet, but most of her injuries are almost gone amd she should not have any lasting physical scars, it's only been a few days since they went missing, I don't know if she will ever bear pups but if she is loved and nurtured she might make it through this period without too much mental distress or damage. let's take some samples from her and see if if matches anyone in the database of werewolves"
"Alpha, Luna, we have done a thorough exam of Nyla, she is healing at a unprecedented rate which is uncommon for someone her age seeing as she isnt at the age to shift yet, I dont see any lasting physical scars, but until she wakes up we won't know the extent of any emotional or mental scars. I do want to let you know she fought like hell based on the damage to her hands and the DNA under her fingernails, she was also r***d, she may never be able to bear pups in the future only time will tell. We did everything we could and sent off all DNA to the werewolf database to see of it's a match, you may go and see her now she still hasnt woken up and we dont know when or if she will her body and mind put itself into a coma to heal."
