pine tree.   Lobo
was struggling underneath the tree and attempting to break the branches that
were holding him prisoner. He snarled, and dug his claws into the dirt in an
attempt to pull himself free.
    Balen
approached her, after having subdued the second wolf with some type of charm.
He threw two charms around Lobo’s neck and turned to shake reality back into
Demona.
    “You
alright?” Balen asked. He searched her for injuries, while he favored his own
left arm.
    Demona
noticed that he bled from multiple puncture wounds. “What?” Demona looked at
Lobo where he now lay in human form below his earthly cage. The other wolf had
also regained human form. She sat huddled near the shack.
    “Are
you alright?” Balen asked.
    Demona
nodded in reply. “What happened?”
    “That’s
a reskinning charm; it’s used to force a werewolf to take human form,” Balen
said. “And this is a manipulation charm; it will subdue him and force him to do
what I tell him. His mind can think differently, but his body will obey.”
    “I
meant with the tree,” Demona said.
    “Help
me get them back to TGHC and we’ll pay Darius a visit.”
    “What
happened?”
    “I
don’t know. Maybe Darius will be able to give us some insight,” Balen said.

    Demona
sat in the chair waiting in the all too familiar place. She stared towards her
old cubical and tapped her fingertips together.
    Balen
exited the office from giving his report to Darius and looked down at Demona.
His brows were creased. “Darius would like to speak with you now. I’ll wait for
you in the parking lot.”
    Darius
was in the same place she had seen him the day before. He sat with his elbows
on his desk and hands collapsed just under his chin. His cold eyes watched her
carefully.
    “Sit
down,” Darius said. He stared into Demona’s eyes capturing her with his gaze.
    Demona
managed to find her seat and squeezed the arm rests.
    “Kerrick
and I have discussed today’s events. The second wolf that you arrested is a
recently turned female. It looks as though Lobo was beginning to create a pack.
Well done on your first assignment. To say the least, I am impressed, even if
you did disobey orders. It seems that you have also found your mageia today,” Darius said.
    “Excuse
me, what’s mageia ?” Demona asked.
    “Demona,
what do you think happened today?” Darius asked.
    “All
I know is that Balen was in trouble. I know I shouldn’t have, but I did what I
could to help. Lobo was getting ready to attack me. One minute I was trying to
get away and bracing myself for death. And the next thing I knew I was staring
at Lobo under the tree.”
    “With
the fear and realization of the end of your life your survival instincts took
over. You are one of a kind; there is no doubt about that.”
    “Stop
with all the cryptics. I just want to know what’s happening!”
    Darius
stood and walked around the office. He stared out the window as the sun began
to set.
    “We
have a prophecy. This prophecy was foretold six millennia ago, by a witch.
Witches with the ability to predict the future were called oracles, then. We
have no written record from that time, so the prophecy has been passed orally.
According to what has been relayed through the millennia, the prophecy says
that a being will come into play that will affect the balance of dark and
light.
    “She
will come as half of one and half the other, born from both death and life. A power
of great strength will rise within to conquer all who oppose her. Love and hate
decides her course. No two outcomes are there, but one. She will change the
world for one and the other she will smother.”
    “What
the hell is that supposed to mean?”
    “It
means that a being will come into existence, a female being to be exact. This
being will contain an unimaginable mageia, of which no species has ever witnessed. She is often referred to as the Mythos . It is assumed that she
