Chapter 1 PROLOGUE

The last thing she remembered was when her mother kissed her on the cheeks before she slept off.

Hazel woke up late In the midnight thirsty, she took the torch beside her bed and jumped down from the bed.

"Mother" she called as she walked towards her parents room.

"Mum am thirsty" she said as she opened the door but her parents were not there, confused, she rubbed her sleepy eyes and proceeded to get water by herself.

She walked to the sitting room table and poured her self some water.

CLANK! The cup fell on the floor and broke to pieces, while Hazel stood in shock, her mouth agape and her tiny body shivered in fear, she had read a lot of fairytale, and watched a lot of horror movies she knew she shouldn't have watched, but this was no fairytale nor was it a horror movie, it was right in front of her. A giant wolf, three times the Normal size of a wolf she had seen on TV, its fangs covered in blood as its bloodshot eyes stared at her, tears gushed down from her eyes. She was shaking and trembling in fear, she didn't know what to say or what to do, seeing the big wolf above her father with wounds on his body, his clothes were torn and blood gushed down from his stomach, his weak eyes pleaded with her to run, but she couldn't, her feet were rooted to the ground, she muttered.

"Dad"

The beast looked at her as it moved slowly towards her, like though it enjoyed the fear in the eyes of its prey. As it walked front, Hazel stumbled backwards.

She suddenly heard a low growl from the beast, her father had stabbed it's leg with a knife, and was holding it tight.

"Hazel run" he said, his voice barely louder than a whisper, although still in shock hazel took her tiny legs and ran as fast as she could, she didn't turn back even when she had the slashing sound as the beast finished her father off.

"Mum, mum" she shouted as she ran towards the door, she had almost opened it when she saw herself flying towards the wall, and with a thud she landed on the ground harshly, her back arched and she felt a sharp pain, the beast looked at her satisfied.

"Mum" she called, she could still hear Jackie her dog barking loudly. Ignoring the pain on her body, she stood up and continued her race, when she heard another growl, she turned to see her mother facing the beast, she was drenched in blood and was already very weak, her eyes looked at hazel and pleaded with her to go, with tears in her eyes hazel forced her legs to move, she turned back one more time, and she saw light emitting from her mother's hand, it was so bright that she had to cover her eyes, by the time she opened her eyes the beast had already stabbed her mother, she knew she had to escape.

"Faster hazel, faster",she urged herself, she could hear the thud sound from the beast feet, but she kept running, and suddenly she fell into a rabbit hole, she hit her head on the ground.

"Ahhhhhhhh"

Hazel woke up from her nightmare, a nightmare that was once a reality, she scanned her small tiny room and looked at her already packed luggage, she yawned widely and muttered...

" What a way to wish myself a happy birthday".
