Day’s become night now…it just did and there’s another moon that the one that’s in the world, there’s the moon shining down on me like the true moon the one that we feel when we’d sing and we’d pray.

I look at everything and my there are wolves there waiting for me and this woman…ash blonde like me…nearly naked save for this whitest grey pelt with a hood of a wolfs head but not hunted…I can feel that…it’s part of her…part of that she wears her wolf right there on her skin.

Mother Moon.

I look at them and I look behind me at my love, crying then killing…taking her rightful rage…on our enemies.

~I’ll miss her.~

I never though someone so unlike me would be my real heart.

Mother Moon stands beside me.

~You can come and run with us daughter, child of my heart, but you truly feel that way?~

~Yes…I loved them with everything Mother…it’s not like when they tell you, you meet your other half but it’s like when you meet your one and only. But it’s more like my heart was never my heart but It was theirs.~

~I knew that feeling too child, it’s a good belief that we each are born with another’s heart.~

~Why are you asking this?~

She looks at me all tribal war paints and deep earthy tan with powerful golden eyes.

~War, war is coming and I’ve smelt it on the winds of time.~

~This war has to do with my death?~

~Yes, The serpent with the green eyes is rising, and when he does all of the earth and the earths beyond will change and there will be blood.~

~End of the world?~

~End of all world’s quite possibly…and our kind have been marked first….they will kill her…and all our your family.~

~What!…No………………………… ……….What do I have to do?~

~Stay…stay and guide her…show her…~

~Here…?~

~Yes…here in the cold between, running through the mists…and in danger.~

~Danger?~

~There are things that travel in between, there are things that do not leave and feed on the trapped and the lost souls.~

I look at her…no not Mother Moon but My beloved…. ~I’ll do it.~

I’m not even really talking to Mother Moon but to the girl there being carried away by our family.

~I’ll walk on broken glass for you.
I’ll crawl through barbed wire, take a bullet, drink any poison.
You are the very, very best part of me.
I will walk through Hell for you.~

I turned and Mother Moon was gone.

………………………………..................I was there…when they weren’t sending shades and shadows to hunt for me. Hiding from the green eyes things…the demons with their red eyes…the realm in between was busy…Mother Moon was right…war, war was coming and this wasn’t like a war in the mortal worlds eyes.

This was worse.

I tried to show her, tried to guide her.
I’d lay down beside her and try to touch her…to hold her…
I’d try to fight at not letting this rip me apart.

………………………………..........I was there at Quebec…I the mountains and saw it all and I stayed to guide my people home…Mother Moon was there…to take them home…

But family passed me in the in between. Passed me whatever strength they had left…It means so much…it’s so needed.

My dark haired cousin Sara was there beside me and there was this green smoky thing in her claws…I ca feel the evil, the malevolence in it and there’s another soul with Sara there but she’s of the blood but not Were.

I look at both of them.

~The Summer calls, you should go with Mother Moon.~

Sara looks at me. Grins showing her longer canines. ~It’ll be there when we’re done. He’s the one behind everything here…the doctor.~

The other one nods. ~He…It’s getting pulled back to it’s master right?~

I nod. ~Yes…~

~Kelly.~ She offers her hand. ~I’m with you, but I need a favor your highness.~

~I…I can try..~

~Show me my girl, can you do that?~

~I can take you to her…Sara…?~

~Oh…I’m mad enough…I’ll hold him here….~

~Will questioning it work?~ Kelly asks.

~We’re not going to question it Kells.~ Sara says looking at me and she’s always been a crazy bitch…why should death change that?

I look at Kelly. ~He’s our key, we’re going behind enemy lines.!

~Oh…huh…?~

I take her to her Erica…I hurt, hurt…hurt seeing them together…then we leave back to Sara and we tether to it…Sara learning majik from my beloved?

The “Good” doctors soul or what passes for it goes racing back to it’s place…to it’s master and we let go as soon as we passed through the boundaries of worlds.

It looks like earth, only dirty, dry and twisted…barren and soiled…it reeks here not of brimstone and sulfur but so much more of rotten tings and pollution.

I look to the sky and there’s a toxic tint and volcanic redness there.

~I’ll walk on broken glass for you.
I’ll crawl through barbed wire, take a bullet, drink any poison.
You are the very, very best part of me.
I Will walk through Hell for you.~

~I Love You Stevie…I Love You.~

Walking through Hell…Chapter 2.

I lead the others as fast as we can go or dare to go through this place. Strange colored skies with browns and streams of toxic colors.

Everything is dead here or dying and those that aren’t are toxic or worse. See there’s animals and stuff here, people even too but everything is burnt from too much sun and too much heat and no rain. There’s no power here…no electricity no running water and even if you don’t need to eat or to drink since you’re dead it doesn’t stop the need…that want of it and you sweat here…get thirsty, get tired and hungry and if you eat anything you get poisoned by hell itself…it’s all a tainted.

You eat and you feed and you get sick, start getting boils and start to get sick in your soul too… like a junky…wanting more poison because it makes the agony go away.

How do we know?

We’ve been on the road as it was for days and each town that we pass we’ve been seeing things like this.

You start off small and then you fall little by little until the addictions change you and twist you into something that you never were meant to be.

Add in survival of the fittest and the fact that you can’t really die unless something eats your heart here and takes your soul…into their soul…

If you can call it that.

Wolf form is hard to keep outside the towns…the animals are a constant temptation like that and a starving wolf is a starving wolf.

Sara is doing better than me being a mage? I’m still new to that aspect of things and Stevie breaking the laws like that. I was guiding her to the danger not suggesting that she go about the way that she did.

Kelly is doing worse than me and better too. She’s not as skilled in the fact that hell is a place of the mind and her soul is having a hard time adjusting to her life of human limitations. On the other side she has a small cross around her neck and she’ll grip that and she’ll pray sometimes and that really does seem to help her. She seems to get some kind of strength from it

We’ve had to fight several times sneaking around trying to get information…people are sometimes little more than beasts…very much think Resident Evil in a way. It’s bad very bad.

Thankfully Kelly’s guns she had somehow work here…and she’s been using the ammo sparingly.

Sara says its part of Kelly’s soul construct since she died with them and stuff.

Seems likely.

Kelly’s actually guiding us and instead of going as the doctors soul had fled to we’re going west.

There’s a bridge that crosses over to the United States at this place called Windsor I’m sure that there might be others but we’d have to cross and that we’d need a boat and we all had bad imaginings of what we’d find there in the water.

We’ve just hit the highway and the cars are just left there or burned or still burning or rusting most are overturned and it’s very scary as we make our way through this place.

The closer that we get to populated areas the higher the danger…the damned are so many…

We smell the fired on hell long before we get there to Windsor and we get off the main road and hide and sneak.

Windsor is walled…and there is a huge metal volcano rising up from the center of this place and we watch as the damned are hauling metal and scraps all hooked literally together in a gaff hook chain gang.

Some of the things there leading them, giving the orders aren’t human…some look sort of what a demon or a devil may seem like but most of these things are like out of some freaks imagination.

I’m really trying to think of a way into the place…I can sort of see the bridge through the smog.

“Dammit we need a plan.”

Sara nods. “Maybe we can take a guard or something and disguise ourselves and walk in?”

Kelly shakes her head. “No they’d likely know the differences we do not look like these things at all and we’d be caught flat footed or something.”

Sara says. “I’m not going through the sewers.”

“Well maybe in one of the wrecks they’re hauling?”

I shake my head. “If we’re caught then we’ll be dead meat in a can literally.”

I get up from my hiding spot and I start walking down the hill towards the highway and Kelly and Sara are following me. Kelly’s saying. “Katya what the hell! Are you trying to get us killed?”

“I’m walking in.”

“Are you nuts!? We’ll definitely not get through then.”

“Why not you think anyone would be this crazy?”

“You just don’t walk…”

Sara quips with a snerk. “One does not simply walk into Mordor.”

I’m smiling just a bit at that as I wrap my cloak around me and start to walk like the wolf queen that I was raised to be.
