Chapter 9: THE NORTHERN WARRIORS
Dawn looked around her, she was familiar with this surrounding. She knew what would happen next and what she would witness.
She also knew this was not real and this was only her nightmare that kept haunting her, but knowing it didn't make her feel any better. Fear, anger and helplessness were still the same as that fateful night when her mother protected her from the rogue attack.
She prayed this time would be different.
However, she had prayed numerous times with no result and now, she was forced to see it again. Five year old Dawn was sitting there on the cold ground like a fool, watching three rogues drag her mother away.
The other three rogues shifted into their beasts and were ready to kill her too, saying something about how they were going to kill the alpha and destroy the pack.
Dawn watched how one of the beasts jumped onto her and was ready to kill her. Out of instinct, like she used to do it in the past, Dawn raised her hand as defense.
It was when she felt someone grab her hand and she clawed them.
"Wake up!"
A deep growl made Dawn open her eyes. She was sweating and her heart was beating so fast when she felt something drip onto her cheek. Her mind was still reeling with the moment she was being attacked. It took her some time to realize that she was safe. There were no rogues clambering to kill her.
