-Yura-
Today started just like any other day, dad had gone hunting with the other men of the village and mom stayed with me at home. It was a peaceful morning and I was helping mom prepare lunch when it happened.
The door of our house burst open and dad was standing there, his clothes tattered and dirty, he was carrying his bow on his back and his short sword on his right hand was stained with a dark bluish liquid.
He was breathing heavily, mom run to him and he briefly told her something which made her face pale. Mon run to the store room and came back with her bow on hand and a dagger on her belt.
She took my hand and together with dad we rushed out of the house, it was then when I saw them. Big black wolves had surrounded the town, a pack of 50 or so according to dad, the villagers were running towards the center of the town but some had already died to the wolves whose teeth were stained with blood.
When I saw them I froze, and mom had to pull my arm to force me move. We had run past a couple of houses when suddenly a couple of wolves blocked our path. Dad immediately engaged them.
I’ll delay them as much as possible, take Yura and run!
Mom started to cry but silently nodded, took my hand and forced me to run again.
Dad! No!! Come with us please!
Honey I love you.
He smiled at me and then his attention went back to the wolves. Unfortunately when started to exchang slashes with the wolf on the left the other one ignored dad and came after us. Mom immediately pulled her dagger from her belt
.
Yura, get into the nearest house close the door and block it with anything you find! Warriors from the kingdom should be arriving soon, hide until they arrive!
No! mom please come with me...
Do it now!
Crying I run into the nearest house and while doing as told, I could hear the sound of the fight outside. Minutes seemed to be hours crying while waiting for mom or dad to come but none did. Finally when I couldn’t hear any more sounds outside I decided to take a look, what I found were two bodies badly injured lying on the floor not far away from the house, and no wolves around.
I run to them with all the forces I had left, mom was panting but dad was… unmoving. I was starting to cry again when I heard mom.
Sweetheart, shh, please listen to me… pant… pant Mom and Dad love you and will always do, so please go and hide until the wolves are gone okay? pant… pant Everything will be okay, take my dagger it will keep you safe, it’s been in our family for centuries.
With her remaining forces she put her dagger on my hand, smiled, and then didn’t move any more.
I was there sitting on the floor next to my parents and couldn’t move, I wanted to do what mom told me but my legs wouldn’t answer to me.
I remained there silently crying until the wolves returned, having hunted all the elves around they had come back for me. I accepted my destiny, I’d be together with mom and dad but then I felt as if someone was watching me.

Mom… Dad… sniff… niff… Somebody, anybody, please I don’t want to die...
At that moment a bright light came out of my body and I felt a warmth coming from my heart. The light was so blinding that I had to close my eyes, when I opened them again there were no Demons around, only the sound of houses burning could be heard and a small window blue blocked my view.
Eh? No wolves? What’s this blue thing?

I felt exaction taking over my body and fall to floor.
The following morning I woke out to the sound of people talking. When I opened my eyes, everybody shut up and looked at me.
Warriors? Did they save the town? Where are Mom and Dad?
Child sorry, you are the sole survivor, we were too late…
