"It seems that the time has almost come for her to awaken,"

"Oracle, please tell me how we can alter the prophecy. For a way for the werewolf community to prosper,"

"Death,"

"Excuse me, but death of whom?"

"I am sure your aware whose death it will be, Mark Vain,"

"No, it can't be me,"

"Perhaps,"

"Is there another way Oracle?"

"Yes, but both result in someone's death,"

"Can Ziva's death be it or maybe Leo?"

Vain asked hopefully. He had always planned on killing Ziva but every method he came up with ended up with a conclusion that he wouldn't be able to get the throne. Leo had been another matter, He was the heir to the werewolf throne but no one knew that. Because of that hidden knowledge, he couldn't use him in getting the throne but he could use him for other purposes. Like how he had lied to him about the two canteens he had, one red and the other blue. The red one contained Arsenic, a slow spreading poison, while the other a mixture of herbs good for sleep. Leo had believed him when he had told him that the two bottles were the opposite of what the truth was. Even now, Vain believed that Leo was dying from drinking the poison.

In truth, he was a cruel man. He had used the four assassins, Ziva, Leo, Sky, and Zero, all to give himself an advantage to become the king of the werewolf society. Many people had tried to stop him, including his old friend, Lee. and Marcus who convinced him to allow him to be a teacher in his school but only because he saw benefit in it or so he thought, but he now realized that Marcus and Lee were using him and his plan had been crushed, thus having him listen to the Oracle tell him that he was going to die in place of the people he tried to kill once.
