Darkness Falls

"Valkyrie! " My father the chief of the BloodClaw clan yelled for me. I sat my stone and blade down and ran up to father. I was the only daughter of Chief Thorne. Mom had passed after a couple of years after I was born leaving father with me and my six brothers; Rayne, Forest, Sparrow, Falcon, Fang, and Ragnor "Yes father. " " I need you to go to the Raven Clan and bring Astair to me alive is that understood? He needs to stand trial after what he has done to Nikita and Rowan. " My father said. Astair was apart of the Raven Clan he had trespassed on our territory and killed Rowan and had gravely injured my best friend Nikita. Some say she won't make it by sundown. "Father... I understand but do I take him by force or do I ask the Ravens to hand him over? " I asked to be certain of what my father was asking me to do. "They already know that you'll be asking for him. They know he will not return." Father replied. His long peppered black hair covered his cold blue eyes. My brothers looked like him whereas I looked a lot like mother but had his attitude hot headed temper and his stubbornness. My eyes are a Icy storm blue and my hair was beautiful dark brown long and curly like my mother's. "You are to do this alone. Bring him to the edge on our side of the lake. Do you understand me Valkyrie." "Yes father. " I said as he hugged me. It was a full moon tonight and Father never gave me a quest alone on a full moon. I always had to stay in the village and do my warrior training. I mustn't fail him. "Remember bring him alive." Fathers words echoed in my ear as I left the village.
