Ch 1 Part 2

Ceilic Bennion: "I surely hope this nightmare does not become a mainstay. I do not think I can handle that scream to many more times."

Adie Bennion: "It is to be expected. She almost died horribly after all. I am sure it will fade with time; it is just very fresh right now. So, we must bear with it."

Ceilic Bennion: "You are right. It was just a horrible shrill of a scream. It gave me goosebumps. But I will try my best to keep it together for her."

Adie Bennion: "I have decided, after these unmated males show up from the Crimson Lunar Tribe, we will do her suggestion. It will be the most efficient way for all those who have not found their mate to find them. And perhaps cut out and remove this jealousy crap the family is pulling. We really got to get the tribes to understand that they need to find their mates before trying to fall in love. It will make things easier in the long run. Having mates get rejected from either side can cause harm in the long run. I do not wish to deal with that fall out in the least."

Ceilic Bennion: "Okay my love. We will let her know we have decided on that tomorrow. Shall we head back to bed, it is still a few hours till dawn."

Adie Bennion: "Yes, let us get that much needed sleep in. Tomorrow will be a long day. That is certain."

They left and went to their bed. They seemed to fall asleep rather quickly. They only hoped this incident would not plague Sachi for too long. Sachi had already fallen back asleep, the special medicine already showing a marked improvement in her as she slept. Her pain had already lessoned as she could toss and turn on her sides without whimpering in her sleep. Even some of her skin was showing so much marked improvement; her mark could clearly be seen now. On all children born, Selena the Lunar Queen, places a birthmark upon all werewolves born. It is in the same place on all werewolves, the front right forearm. The wolf constellation was on all pure blood wolves from birth. If the wolf was complete on all-star placements, it meant they were alpha. If down by one star, they were betas and so on. Subcategories of each were then marked by a line between certain points. Thus, giving a clear status in the pack from birth. But Sachi, as the special alpha born, the constellation was not only present, with all lines connecting, but filled in with a light grey color as well. Looking the most like an actual wolf than stars. The new alpha was chosen to lead depending on where the alpha was needed the most after the pairing. If the male's family needed the new alpha in their home tribe, that is where they went. If the female's tribe was in need of the alpha, then they filled the placement there. But like Sachi's tribe, there was four alpha children born. It happened that way in most, so then it becomes the decision of the current pack leader. As Sachi slept, she seemed to be absorbing the knowledge of how their placements are among the pack. It was this way for every tribe. Though she did not know who was giving her the knowledge; could it be the original Sachi or was its Selena the Lunar Queen's doing? She did not know either way at this point.

The next morning, the sounds of all the birds and crickets came ringing in clear as a bell. No longer was her head hurting to the point that she felt dizzy all the time with a half-fogged effect. No longer was the mere sound of any wildlife making her head feel like it was going to explode at any given time. She opened her eyes and stretched without thinking, to her surprise, it hurt, but nothing like the first two days. It did not want to make her throw up from the pain. She blinked several times realizing this fact and looked around slightly. She spotted the pitcher of water on her little table and a glass. She sat up with some ease as opposed to the last two days and scooted to the edge of the bed. Filling the glass, she downed the water and set the cup down. She needed to head to the outhouse, but she remembered the performance she needed to put on first. Taking a chance, she stood up, although it be a bit shakily, bracing herself against the wall. She breathed heavily as it seemed to have taken a bit out of her. But she was able to regain herself rather quickly this time. She was absolutely amazed by how well the special medicine worked. At this rate, she would be healed in a matter of days instead of weeks. The mark on her arm seemed to pulsate, almost as if it were working in conjunction with the medicine to heal her faster.

Taking a few steps, she shakily made her way to the first fireplace and sat on one of the stools near the fire. It felt good to feel that warmth. With her eyes able to focus better, she took a good look around the inside of the house. It was simple in design. Something from ancient Celtic times from her original world. It is a good thing she enjoyed mythologies, it helped to get a better feel of this place. The iron torch holders were intricately carved and had beautiful designs. Even the spits in the fireplace were showing beautiful craftsmanship. As she sat enjoying the architecture, her mother came out of her bed space at the end of the house. She gasped in shock as she did not think the medicine would have done so much in just one major dose so far. Dragging one of the other stools closer, she sat down next to Sachi almost in tears as a big smile spread across her face.

Ceilic Bennion: (Taking up her right arm, she lifted it to get a closer look upon the birthmark…) "I just do not believe what I am looking at. Your mark was so marred from the injuries, I feared it may scar. I know we heal well, but some injuries can only heal so well. The fact that your entire mark is this clear is an absolute wonder. I have no words to describe it."

Sachi Bennion: (Lifting her arm looking at the mark…) "My arm feels very itchy, like that is the spot getting the most healing right now. I do not know why. Mother, has Selena the Lunar Queen ever spoken to any of us before?"

Her mother looked at her funny as though she were still trying to understand what she just heard her daughter say, she blinked a few times.

Ceilic Bennion: (Looking at her daughter with a raised brow…) "I am not sure what you mean. What are you referring to?"

Sachi Bennion: "I do not know how to explain it, but as I slept, I kept hearing a female voice telling me how our ranking system worked. It was as though I were being given instructions on just how to maintain and keep the pack in line. Did this ever happen to you or father?"

Ceilic Bennion: "I never heard anything personally myself, you may want to ask your father about it. As pack leader, he may know something about it even if he is not sure why he knows. Our god does work in odd ways."

It was about that time that her father, Adie, walked up from the back. Still rubbing the sleep from his eyes. He yawned big as he walked over to a stool and moved it closer to his Luna, his mate. He leaned in and kissed her cheek he turned toward the fire before he realized that there was two people there, not one. He blinked his eyes in astonishment as he realized it was Sachi. He got up and immediately gave her a hug, she winced in pain, but he could not seem to pull himself away. After about five minutes, he finally let go, picking up her limbs and looking over everything. He could not believe the marked improvement of just one heavy dose. Or perhaps it was the fact that she was the special alpha? He did not know either way, nor did he care at this point. She lightly nudged him to stop prodding her like he was appraising something. He smiled and sat down on the stool after readjusting it. She looked at him and decided to just ask the question she had posed to her mother, after all, he may know something about it.

Sachi Bennion: "Father, I need to ask you a serious question. Mother looked at me funny when I asked, so you may know more as the main alpha."
