Darric looked out from his apartment window at the sound of wolves howling. One came from the direction of the vampire's house he had visited just a few minutes ago. It sounded sorrowful. Another one came from the opposite direction and seemed full of fury. He stared at the darkness for a few minutes before he decided that he needed to see what was happening.

Just as he stepped into the forested area he heard the howl from, a woman's scream pierced the night. It was human. The scream brought Darric into high alert and he hurried deeper into the forest until he saw a woman on the ground, her back bloody with what appeared to be a wolf bite.
