Sitting at a desk in the Central city police department was a young woman with slightly tanned skin with hazel eyes and pink, full lips. Although the room was dimly lit her beautiful features could easily be made out and one could see her frown as she flipped through the pages of a file.

"This doesn't make sense" she whispered to herself as she continued to flip through the pages "If everyone at the scene was dead and the location was that isolated then who made the call?" she asked out loud to no one in particular, she pulled out her cellphone and quickly dialed a number, the phone rang a couple times before someone picked up.

"hey Bernie, did you notice anything strange about the report on the martinez case?"

"umm no, why?"

"well if everyone was dead and the compound is so isolated then who made the call"

" An annonymous tip, apparently the compound was attacked that day by the lupine family"

"The what family?" She asked

"A new crime family, stepped on the scene about three years ago, they're a small group but none of the other families have made a move against them except the martinez family sent a squad to attack their base. Let me see if I can find out who is the boss of this new family..............aaaaaaaand done, you're looking for one Nicholas Lupine, age twenty-five currently attending Southridge University studying History and Human Psychology"

"Thanks Bern, be seeing you"

"Hey take it easy Emily, go home and get some rest, knowing you you're probably still at the office."

"Will do" she said before hanging up the phone. She carefully placed the file back into the cabinet and turned off the lights while grabbing her belongings before making her way out the door and heading down the stairs to her car.

------One Hour Later------

Emily walked through the front door of her and her sister's two bedroom house and was greeted by the sound of silence. She wearily tossed her bag to the floor and took off her coat before hanging it up on a hanger, she glanced at the clock hanging on the wall and saw it was two in the morning. Dragging her feet, she made her way to the kitchen to prepare breakfast which was quickly devoured before making her way to the bedroom and flopping heavily onto the bed, staring at the ceiling fan spinning slowly above her head she felt her eyelids grow heavier and heavier until she finally allowed them to completely close.

Emily awoke to the sound of the alarm blaring loudly in her ear, she lifted her arm up and slammed it down heavily halting the incessant blaring. She lay there with her face buried in her pillow for a few minutes before rolling over to the edge of the bed and throwing her feet off the sides and sitting in an upright position.

stifling a yawn with the back of her hand she got up and begun stretching before she headed to the bathroom to attend to her basic needs. As she stepped out of the bathroom she recieved a call

" hello"

"hey emily, so I just looked deeper into the case you're working on and discovered something really interesting"

"can't it wait bern? i'm kind of in the middle of something"

" I think you'll wanna hear this"

Emily sighed before replying "what is it?" to which Bernie excitedly continued

"Ok so I went over the autopsy reports on Carlos Martinez's men and you're not gonna believe what I found. The victims all show signs of being mauled by some sort of animal! Canine if i'm not mistaken."

" So you're saying the victims were mauled by a pack of dogs? truly fascinating bern, really." emily said in a joking manner

"That's not the best part, not that there's anything good about this cause who would want to be mauled by dogs or any type of animal for that matter, that's not even the worst way to go I mean look at-"

''Bernie, Focus" emily cut him off as he started to ramble 'guess it comes with age' she thought to herself as she made her way to the bedroom to change her clothes

"Right, my apologies. As I was saying, The victims were mauled by canines yes but not by regular dogs, the teeth marks are too big to be any average dog, they're closer to wolf bites" Emily paused as heard bernie's statement, disbelief plastered on her face

"You're telling me there are wolves running around attacking people? *heavily* armed people?" she said emphasizing the word.

"Not any average wolf mind you, by the size of the teeth i'd say we're dealing with some form of mutated species" Bernie passionately said before continuing "I've always found wolves......majestic"

" riiiiiiiight, thanks bern i'm gonna go have a chat with our little friend, talk to you later"

She said before hanging up the phone and preparing to leave the house, making her way out the door she stopped to take in the atmosphere before continuing to her car and heading to the suspect's school.

-------Several Hours Later------

Emily pulled up to the front gate of Southridge univeristy and exited her car before making her way to the security checkpoint. After successfully getting past security she proceeded to question everyone she passed about the whereabouts of nicholas lupine until finally she came across a young man with piercing silver eyes, long black hair and a handsome face sitting down on the grass staring up into the sky seemingly lost in thought.

As she stared at the young man she could not help but to get the feeling that somehow he seemed familiar, she snapped out of her trance as she heard the young man ask " Something you need miss?"

Emily's face flushed before she quickly regained her composure " Yes sorry to intrude on your....meditation but do you know anyone by the name of Nicholas Lupine?" she said while flashing her badge. The young man flashed a quick smile at her before standing up and dusting off his pants with his hands and reached out to her for a hand shake " it's a pleasure to meet you miss-" emily took his outstretched hand and introduced herself "Waller, Emily Waller"

she saw the smile on nick's face slowly disappear as he continued to look into her eyes, emily felt a chill run down her spine as she stared into nick's eyes. Nick finally let go of her hand and said with a serious attitude "What can I help you with detective Waller?" which allowed emily to shake off the feeling of being watched by a predator "right......right......Mr Lupine we have reason to believe you were involved in a murder case i'm currently working on"

"Reaaaaaally?" He said with a glint in his eyes "Do you have any evidence to support your statement? I mean that *is* standard procedure correct?" he asked with a playful smirk plastered on his face "yes bu-" emily began but was interrupted as nick continued " no worries, what is it you wish to know?" he asked catching emily off guard as she was not expecting him to be so co-operative "w-where were you last night?" she asked "why I was at home of course, ask my dear friend Eren"

"And who might I ask-"

"Sup Nick" she heard a voice say from behind her "who might your friend be?"

Emily quickly spun around and saw another tall young man with silver hair and a dazzling smile on his face "Where did you come from!?" emily asked slightly taken aback by the stealthiness shown by this fellow who looked as if he walked with the grace of an elephant.

"Eren Fargas at your service" the man said with a small bow " what can I do for you detective?"

"were you two together last night?" she asked

"Yes, we were studying for a psychology exam last night.....which we are late for, are we finished here?" eren asked as he checked his watch, emily narrowed her eyes at them suspiciously but eventually said "you're free to go......for now" and stood aside as she watched them walk off 'something's not right about those two' she thought to herself 'and what was that strange feeling I got when I first saw him' she wondered as she thought back to the moment when she first saw nick sitting looking tranquilly at the clouds above, she recalled the feeling she got in her heart and frankly it made her uncomfortable.

Shaking herself out of her thoughts she made her way back to her car before driving. Meanwhile on the roof of a nearby building stood two figures, a tall young man with black shoulder length hair and silver eyes and the other was similarly tall with silver hair and brown eyes

"Keep an eye on her" the silver eyed male said to which the other replied "as you wish" before running off along the roof of the building after emily's car. The other kept his eyes on the car as he watched it quickly travel down the road and said "tread carefully little one, some things should remain unknown" in a deep rumbling voice similar to that of a demon before turning away.
