REBORN QUEEN

7TH CENTURY, KINGDOM OF CARAXES 'Mistress, watch out!' Ava screamed. Selene turned just in time to see a huge black werewolf tear her back with his fangs. 'Argh!' she shouted but managed to stand up and face her attacker. From the corner of her eye, she saw Ava run away and hoped she was going to get help somehow. Blood seeped from all parts of her body where she had been struck by many other enemies. She had killed all of them but it had taken all her energy and left her with deep injuries, she would not be able to hold them off for much longer. Selene bared their teeth to the werewolf opposite her. "You fight against your own side, traitor!' she said using werewolf telekinesis. 'I fight for the winning side,' he answered her and lounged. She knocked her to the ground but she tackled him trying to disable him. All around her war raged in her beautiful kingdom of Caraxes, and they were losing. “Everyone into the palace,” Araxes called. The remaining fighting werewolves ran into the palace, as Araxes tried to hold their attackers off. “Selene! Come?” She was about to obey when struck again by the werewolf and this time to the ground, she screamed again as a whimper escaped from her lips. She knew Odey her attacker and had watched him grow, but he had joined the enemy camp now and was about to kill her. He raised his claws to deliver the final blow. This is the end, she thought. Too weak to resist, she closed her eyes waiting for the last strike that would send her back to her ancestors. At least she died in battle, even though a failing one. She heard Odey scream and opened her eyes to see a spear sticking through him. Ava had attacked him from behind, aiming at his heart to kill. 'Quick mistress, we have to go!' "Go? Where? I can't leave my people in battle" "No mistress. You are the Queen, only you can protect them. And now the only way you can protect them is by leaving now! I have found a way" Ava said. Selene tried to stand on her hind legs but they were broken and weak. "I can't move Ava. Leave me with my people I have to protect them." "The other witches know are doing a ritual that would protect them forever." Ava carried Selene in her arms, but the weight of the mighty werewolf slowed her down." As they were about to run into the forest, Selene saw many arrows pierce through Araxes as he stumbled to the ground. "Araxes! NO!" She tried to jump out of Ava's grip but she was too weak. Two beta werewolves heard her screams and ran toward her. "gods!" Ava cursed and quickened her pace, running blindly through the trees. "They would not be very fast here, there is still little magic left in the trees," Ava said. Selene had nothing to reply, only the image of her alpha on the ground burned through her memory. All she wanted was to kill all those invaders, kill them all! Even if it killed her many times, she would get her pound of flesh. "Rrrr," the werewolves barked as they chased them, almost getting close. Then Ava turned abruptly through a corner that led to a waterfall and carrying Queen Selene in her hands, she jumped down. The werewolves looked down into the river, "They're dead." One said to the other. "Do you think the Queen of Caraxes Kingdom and the most powerful witch in the seven cities would just die like that? Come on, let's go through the hill and look for them. Alpha said we must bring a body." Meanwhile, Ava emerged from the River, spluttering. She looked down at Selene as she placed her on the Sand. She had lost too much blood and did not have much time left. "My Queen," Ava said. "Go," Selene replied. "Save yourself." Ava ignored her plea and instead carried her into a hidden pathway that led downwards. In it was a secret cave she had owned since her inception. "They would never find us here," Ava said. She walked to a standing object that was concealed and removed the clothes on it, then began gathering a few items. The object was a large round piece of wood with a hold inside it. "What are you doing?" Selene said. "I'm trying to save werewolf kind." "What are you talking about?" Selene asked. Ava knelt beside her. "Right now as we speak, the other witches are performing a ritual that will bind the werewolves of the people of Caraxes, prevent them from turning." "What?" Selene screamed. "That would kill them." "It would save them," Ava said. "This enemy is as powerful, as he is undying. He will strike again, to wipe out your kind. Then you will send him to eternity." Selene was going unconscious, Ava quickly stood up. She lay Selene on a cloth and wrapped her in it. "One day, only Caraxes would stand between werewolves and extinction. You will be there to save our kind, my Queen." "And you?" Selene asked. "I will be with you my queen," Ava said. With that, she threw Selene through the portal and struck a dagger through her own heart. When the werewolves found the cave, all they saw was a dead witch in a pool of her own blood. And Selene, Werewolf Queen of Caraxes, traveled through time.
