Dark figures swarmed the night's darkness, a flood of them, moving with brisk quickness, silent against the stones beneath them. It was a storm, a storm directed to crush all opposition and they did it whenever and wherever they were called. The moon rose to the middle of the sky and slowly it began to change, growing in aspect until it was a full moon. Blood red eyes responded to that moon, faces raised in agony and exhilaration. As one, all their faces began to change, blood red eyes growing and the hairs of the skin becoming ticker and finer, their hands stronger, their mouths longer, with sharp blades for teeth. They howled to the night's wind and gave power to their chase; they would capture the enemy. The men ran ahead of them, three brothers, desperate for safety, they ran like they had never. They were not used to running, they controlled everything but now they were being chased by an enemy who did not care for their authority or status but came and took everything and left. They had to fight to protect themselves and their home, fight to stay alive and that included running.
