Revenge. That was the only thought in the wolf's mind. There was no more time for fun and games. It was no nothing more than business, and the wolf had it's victim. The wolf walked over to a house, the lights still on. Slowly, the wolf knocked on the door, and the villager answered. "Who is it?" the villager asked. "I can't sleep. We need to talk!" the wolf replied. Slowly and cautiously, the villager let the wolf in. There was peace for a minute in the town of Fwedawick, but then, the villager's lights suddenly went out, and the thrashing began.

The next morning, the villagers all awoke and gathered around. They were happy with their successful catch of a wolf, and fear had been replaced with cautious optimism. "Well, are we all here?" one of the villagers ask. "Aye, everyone's here...wait, where's -" but the villager was cut off, as they all heard a woman's scream eminate through the village. They all ran to the sound, and came at last to the sourch. A women covered in blood was standing outside of the house. "I....he....wolves...." the woman said. None of the villagers had seen her before. "Who are you?" one of the villagers asked. "I am River. I...I cleaned his....he's....he...." but she succumbed to tears and pointed inside the house. Slowly, the villagers walked inside, and looked at the horror that had occured that night.

The walls were covered with blood. All around, there were runes and pictographs. Great drawings of wolves eating villagers were marked all around the rooms. Words in an unknown dark language were scattered around the ceiling, and a trail of deep red blood soaked the floor. Hesitantly, the villagers followed the pool of blood into the largest room in the house. It was circular, and to the villagers astonishment, there was no blood. The room was completly clean. "Where....what happened in here?" a villager asked, as everyone looked again and again through the room, looking for a sign of death. Everything seemed to be in place, just as it had always been. The villagers hope would have been lost, had River not have found what was wrong. A wardrobe had been moved out of its normal location. When the villagers pushed it away, it revealed a mirror, it's edges outlined in blood-written words. It read:

Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the ranger amongst them all?


Someone touched the mirror, and revealed that it was also a passageway. When pushed back, it revealed a secret room. It was there that they found the body. Feanor of the Peredhil's corpse was lying in the empty room, nothing left of the body except a few pieces of flesh clinging to bone. He had been literally ripped to shreds. At once, River screamed again in shock, and passed out on the floor. Someone quickly took her pulse and shouted "My word! She's dead!" . The villagers were shocked, but they didn't care as much for her, so the blow didn't hit her that hard. She died of a heart attack, and was indeed a regular villager. "Well, now that she's not a suspect, who could do something like this? Who would do something like this? Where is the wolf?!?"


Note: About the whole River thing, I just felt like adding in a red shirt (a minor character who dies). She is not important, and I am just killing off this non-existant character for my own amusment and repressed childhood.
