Prologue
People were whispering. Children were hiding behind their parents bodies. And those who sat closest to me, had scraped their chairs as far away from me as they could.
A single tear escaped my eyes and a hand softly grabbed mine. When I looked up I saw my father looking at me. He gave me a wry smile, which had to be supporting. He never had been good at supporting people, but we just accepted him the way he is.
Another hand, grabbed my free hand and I knew, without even looking up that it was my mother. I looked over my shoulder to see my friends standing together in a group. Close to each other and softly whispering.
If I could, I could easily hear them, but with the situation I was in, it wouldn't be good. Sure, one of them could be easily commanded by me to tell me what was going on, but that was one thing I had promised myself, not to command any of them, even though I had the power to do so.
Suddenly all the whispers faded away and a tensed silence settled in when a door opened. I looked up and watched how the chief of the tribe came striding in to the room.
He looked straight ahead, to the large desk in the front, where the other elders were already sitting behind. His dark, black hair had been braided in to two tails. He wore traditional, Native American Indian clothes, something he only did wear during special occasions, such as this one. My trial.
"Sit down please," he ordered once he had arrived at his spot behind the desk. Only now I had noticed that everyone had stand up, but me. I quickly looked down to my hands. Ashamed that I had not even stand up for the chief who was about to discuss my fate in this tribe.
"Family, friends, people, today, we're here to discuss the fate of, who once has been seen as family, but now has become a threat to all of us," He began and whispers quickly started to rise up again, until he ordered everyone to be silent.
"As thanks to her, vampires has been roaming around. If it weren't for our boys, dead would have spread. Blake, a thank you is in order here. Without the help of your pack we could have never lived to tell the tale further on," the chief nodded proudly to my ex-boyfriend, who, in acknowledgement bowed a little bit.
I growled softly. Which earned me a few warning looks from his pack brothers. They all knew our history. Everyone, living on the reservation knew about it.
"Quiet!" the chief shouted, once he had heard the growls between me and the pack. I quickly turned back and went back to watching my hands.
"Luna, stand up," he ordered me and without putting up a fight, I did. There was no use in disobeying your chief.
"You have one chance to defence yourself. Blow it and we can easily make a decision about your punishment," he explained and I gulped, watching him directly in the eye now. What could I say? Even though I was no where to blame for the vampires to suddenly show up, they still thought it was all my fault.
"I, I..." I nervously started out. I tried to find the words I needed, but couldn't.
"It isn't her fault!" someone, suddenly spoke up and I turned around, to try and find out who had spoken up for me. Kevin had stepped forward out of the pack.
"Kevin," I mouthed towards him, shaking my head. He was only bringing himself in to problems now. Blake would surely punish him for stepping up.
"Kevin, step back now, it isn't your turn to talk!" the chief ordered, but Kevin held his ground.
"Vampires are hunters. They hunt for blood. HUMAN blood. Luna is a werewolf. Like we are. She is OUR sister and yes, maybe, ever since she phased, that they showed up, but even before she was phased, vampires regularly roamed around the area," my mouth hang open. Was he really defending me now?
"But not as many as they are now Kevin. Something lingers around Luna that attracts vampires and especially those of the higher status. I don't NEED to get in trouble with the royal vampires. Now, step back Kevin,"
"No!" I shouted before Kevin could even obey to our chief. Blake did nothing to order his pack brother back. Everyone now looked at me.
"Kevin, thank you so much, but this is my trial. Whatever the vampires find so attractive of me, I don't know, but please, let him tell me my punishment." I muttered the last part, knowing Kevin could easily hear me. He nodded, unsure, but still took a few steps back, towards his pack brothers.
I turned around, facing the chief now. Letting my arms hang loosely by my sides, my eyes gazing at him fiercely.
"Let me know my punishment. I'm ready for it, because, I for once know, that when I defend myself, it will be for no use." The chief nodded approvingly. As he was waiting for me to say this. He glanced at the other elders, who nodded at him.
"Exile!" he only said aloud and I felt the ground disappearing under my feet. Was he... did he just... I tried to find words to say. Grasp myself about what had just been said. Looked blankly ahead. Everything I had ever worked for here seemed to disappear in front of me.
I felt a pair of strong arms pulling me away, and even though I didn't know who it was, I was glad he did. The people around us began to talk loudly. In the distant I heard my mother crying out loud and my father shouting at the chief. He never shouted. He did respect his chief.
Exile... banned from the one place I called home... and why? Because of some stupid mistake I had made and those vampires.
"Luna, LUNA!" someone was shaking me and when I finally got back to the real world I watched my brother in to the eyes. Michael. He looked to be in pain. Emotional pain.
His warm, muscled arms wrapped around my torso as he pulled me in for a hug. Maybe our last hug. I still couldn't believe it. Banished. From my home. My friends. And most importantly. My family...
A/N: Thank you all for reading the chapter! I've written this story before and even before that, but never was quite happy with how it all worked, but now I am! I've figured it all out how I want things to happen and with who she will be in a relationship eventually :) !
