Okay, first is Liam, then Sky and Tal need to post, then it's open for anyone to reply.

The whispers, they drove him nuts. He resisted, he tried to hold onto his promises to both his future mate and his step-mother. But soon the shadows taunted him as much as the whispers. He stared at the monster with the glowing red eyes sitting in his closet. The whispers grew louder, drowning out the words Sky had told him. He stood abruptly, pacing. When the frantic movement didn't drown out the whispers, the glowing embers staring at him, he lifted his hands to his head, pressing one to each side as if to press the voices out, to relieve the pressure he felt building.

For a moment, the world fell silent. He drew in a slow breath, his golden eyes half closing. With a resounding crash, the voices, the snarls, the voiceless whispers began again. Liam snarled, charging out the door of his room, down the stairs, and out of the house. His sudden movement startled Tameri, who curiously followed her older brother. She couldn't understand why he didn't like her. The six month old female followed at a distance, stopping when Liam reached the border and hoisted himself into a tree covered with curious markings and lots of colors. The black she-pup sat at the bottom, staring up.

Out of the house, the male was beginning to feel better, until he looked down and saw a pack of shadows staring at him. The butterflies began whispering, taunting him, pushing him towards his test. His hackles raised as he snarled at the slavering shadows waiting for him. He leaped down, watching as all the shadows save one vanished like smoke. This one was the largest of all, it's bulk menacing, it's deep red eyes glittering with pure evil, it's ivory fangs glistening in the sun. Liam snarled, unsheathing his claws. His voice was a guttural snarl as he spoke to the beast. "Time to die, beastie."

Tameri took an uncertain step back, unnerved by the burning hatred in Liam's eyes. She whimpered his name softly, stepping back again as he advanced. His words terrified her, and she turned and fled. She was smaller than him and got caught less in the brush, but the larger male was clearly gaining on him. Her intent was to run to the house, to find mom and dad, and have them calm Liam down. She didn't understand why this was happening, she didn't understand why this was-

Liam roared his victory as the bulky shadow stumbled and fell. he didn't realize they were in Thornbury again, didn't realize anyone and everyone could see him, could see the crime he was going to commit. He fell on the shadow beast as if it were prey, taking pieces of it's flesh from it's hide. A sickening ripping noise, and a leg came free.

Tameri screamed in pain. Not a yelp, not a whine, a howl, or a whimper, but a scream of pure pain and terror. She sobbed for her mom, she sobbed for her dad. Liam's punishing fangs continued to tear into her smaller frame as she tried to free herself from his grasp. As she tried to kick him with her hind legs, a bright light tore through her vision and she screamed again as her hind leg was removed forcibly from her body. All she'd wanted to do was get him to like her, why was he hurting her? She whined and whimpered for her parents, her vision greying out. She'd just wanted him to be her friend. She'd wanted to be a good big sister to the new puppies that mommy had in her belly. Why was this happening? What had she done wrong? With a final whimper, Tameri's brief life was over, her flame extinguished by the big brother she'd adored.

The shadow stopped fighting. Liam released the severed leg, wondering why it looked suddenly smaller than it had before. Perhaps shadows shrank as they died. His butterflies were in full control now as he relinquished the small corpse, not even recognizing the tattered scraps of fur and flesh as his adopted sister. He glanced around, seeing shadows everywhere. He leaped to his feet, assuming a defensive crouch as they circled in around him, pinning him in place.
