It had been almost a year since Venus had taken her life. Moro was to blame, she had always been the blame for her own suffering, for other's suffering. Before, guilt never reached her, she had believed she had a right to cause pain, had a right to do wrong. But now--with Mars blessing her with a family, her children had been born because of someone's blood. Her sister's blood. Moro had brought some flowers, a slab of elk meat and a bit of fur from her cub's bodies.
The wind wiped around her head and fur, looking down at the side of the cliff, she realized how long of a drop it was. "Sister.." Moro whispered, leaving the gifts there at her grave. "I'm sorry. Forgive me. I wish--I wish we could have had the friendship we used to." Moro howled, calling her sister to return to her, praying death had not conquer her.

Watching. Waiting. Wondering. Lying down under the bush, staring at my evil sister. At the tip of her tail, white fur was blooming and her toes were streaked with white. Her blood red eyes had lightened and her voice was ... musical. "Ou-OUGH!!!!"I howled, keeping myself hidden but letting Moro know who's howl it was.

Moro froze, hearing the howl and snarl of her sister. She was alive and from the sounds of it, she was still hating Moro. The evil one of the sisters bowed low to the ground, watching her gifts getting caught in the breeze and falling over the edge. She exposed her neck, waiting for her sister to end her life, if that is what she wished. She had killed her sister twice and Moro had been dead ever since she saw Mars choose Venus over her.

I howled again. Watching Moro bend her neck and close her eyes, i smiled in amusment. "Always the humble one" I yelled, keeping hidden. Finally backing out from the bush and coming into view, i drew myself up to my full height and showed off my newly blackened fur and pale red / brown eyes. Only my ear-tips were white. I lifted my lips, showing my teeth.

Moro's eyes widened, seeing her sister. She almost mirrored what she once looked like. "Venus you look.." She rose slowly, an evil smile spreading across her lips, "Darker." Moro was still evil, although she was beginning to change. Darkness still held onto her heart, soon your thoughts become your actions and your actions became your character. Moro was a perfect example of this. Darkness had become her character.

"Takes a genius to notice it" I said, not moving a muscle, staring at my 'sister'. We stared at each other for what felt like ages. But then i turned away. "Give my love to ... Mars" I said loudly, turning away and walking slowly off, ears flat back.

Moro took a few steps forward--, "Wait, sister." She pulled back, realizing she had no right to call Venus that anymore. She lowered her head, the guilt stronger than ever.

"Sister?! You lost me as a sister a LONG time ago, Moro!" I screamed, spinning around. I stood shaking with anger, looking at my sister. And then i licked my lips and sat down. "What. Is. It" I snarled.

For a brief moment, Moro showed her true form to Venus. "I have no right to call you sister. I'm sorry for the pain I've caused you. End my life if you wish, I am but a shell of what I once was." She thought of her children and Mars, they'd be better off without her. They'd be free from the monster she was. She was cursed, she could only bring pain in the end.

I raised a brow, sneering. "Kill you? No, that would be the easy way out. I'm going to let you live, let you live with the guilt and shame. Let you live with the pain you have caused ... not just to me, but to millions of families, wolves ... cubs, Moro! All the adults and BABIES you've slaughtered, all the hearts you've broken ... and the lives you've stolen. You don't deserve to die ... you deserve to live with it. Live with it all" I said quietly, my eyes never leaving my intimidating ex-sister.

Moro quivered, shaking and falling. Falling into the darkness that was called total agony. "So it is true..." She began, looking up, her eyes turning red, her body going back to her frighteningly beautiful form. She slowly rose, "Not even my family will provide me with mercy." Moro lunged forward, leaping over her sister and behind her. "You're starting to remind me of myself a little. I hope you enjoy that." She spat, trotting away and disappearing back into Black Blood Territory.

"MERCY?! TELL ME WHAT MERCY YOU DESERVE!!!" I yelled after her, shivering with anger, quaking with adrenaline. Sprinting back to the forest, i took a short cut to HER castle. Racing up the winding stairs, i broke into the tower and there, standing elegant and white-black before me ... was Mars.

Cray was standing by his father's side. Looking into the face of a wolf that looked a lot like his mother but it didn't smell like her. "Venus." he whispered, backing away slowly. He called his mother, using the powers she had taught him.
Moro came running up to the castle, climbing the many flights of stairs. Her cubs were in trouble, she'd kill who ever was causing them fear and pain.

"Venus" Mars stated, looking sadly down at his paws. "Don't get friendly with me" I said to Mars, walking right past him and up to my nephew. I placed my chin on his forehead and blessed him. "Cray. Rein" I said, turning around as Rein came out from behind a throne. I done the same to my niece and then went to Mars. Bringing my paw up, i slapped him hard. "I'm sorry" Mars whispered, braving the blow.

Cray stood firm as his aunt approached him, she smelled slightly of death it was strange to see her--after believe she had taken her own life. As soon as she bless him, Cray felt more power serge inside his body. He snarled and stood next to his father, "Don't treat my father, the king, with such ill manners." Cray was half ground, and already reaching his father's shoulders.
Moro burst through the door, just in time to see Venus touch her son and slap Mars across the face. "How dare you!" She snarled, lunging forward and placing herself in between Cray and her ex-sister.

"Mother" Rein raised her eyebrows and lay a calm paw on Moro's shoulder. I looked Venus in the eye, hoping to calm her with my emotion powers. But she stared right back, head tilting ever so slightly. "Moro, i'm not like you. I'd never hurt my own nephew or niece ... can't you see i was giving them my blessing?" Venus whispered. Suddenly, black fur started filling in her white spots and she screamed and howled in pain and fear and anger, writhing on the ground, trying to rip her own fur off.

Moro glared at her sister, "If you don't forgive me, how can you bless my cubs? Who came from my very body?" She froze, once she saw her sister crumble to the ground. She never saw her scream in pain before. She ran forward, trying to place some sort of peace over her sister, "What's wrong?" She asked, scared.

Venus =
I stared up at Moro through blurred eyes. "B-because the-theyyyyy" I trailed off, getting to my wobbly feet and backing away. "Nev-never stole m-my hus-husband" And with that, the tears flowed down my new black cheeks and i ran down the stairs.

Moro chased after her sister, knowing it was dangerous for her to be alone. Transformation is dangerous. She shouldn't be alone.

I heard Moro catching up and took a sharp left, coming into a cold but crowded room. It had old scraps of meat everywhere, splintered wood and bones and some times bits of scrap metal. I ran behind a big, cracked rib cage, possibly once belonging to an elephant or a large giraffe. I crouched low, still quaking with pain and fear.
