(A/N: just a nice filler chapter. I thought we could see more of Prism's inner wolf who I now name Nebula xD)

Today was.......weird. Something that rarely happens....happened....my inner wolf took my place today and now Luna is afraid to sleep. Also, I'm scared to show my face in front of Cory now >\\\\\\<

I don't know what happened, but I know it wasn't good.

Hey, Brat.

What?

Switch. I'm getting bored, I want stretch my limbs and try those Ice drink things.

You mean an Icee?

Yeah. Also, I want to meet this boy you're crushing on!

Why?

To see if you lowered your standards. Obviously they're low if Lucius managed to get you in bed.

Hey! I was drugged also, I was held hostage!

All because you were too naïve~

You know what...go ahead Nebula! See if I care!

It's too easy to screw with you! At least you finally came up with a decent name for me. Now close your eyes and shut your trap.

.......

...............

***************

Oh~ it feels so nice to have a body! Sadly, the little twerp gets to enjoy it. Well, tiny book I guess I should introduce myself...

I am Nebula. The true wolf that dwells within Prism Lunaire, your owner. Yes, it's true I can be...harsh with her, but I'm doing it out of love. She doesn't know what power she possesses and she's completely naïve when it comes to trusting people. I guess you could say I'm a bit overprotective of what's mine.

I can't do some of the things she does when she's in control. I can only hear what she hears. I can't see, smell, feel, or taste like she can. Which is why I'm quite excited to be in control. My Aibou is still such a young girl where I have the knowledge and experience of Queens long before her.

Which reminds me....what the absolute hell is she wearing?! Honestly if her Great-Great Grandmother were to see this, she'd be mortified. This generation is disappointing, sadly I'll have to deal with it. I'll go shopping for more "appropriate" clothing for a lady.

I'm hungry. I feel like feasting on a nice plump squirrel, nothing tastes better than having such tender, juicy squirrel at the crack of dawn. I just love the way the blood mingles together with the sinews, who needs spaghetti when you can have the taste of real meat?

Though, Prism did say bacon was "The Bomb.Com" I might have to try it. I sense her roommates waking up. I better get going, I'm looking forward to meeting her friends and whoever this Cory is.

He better be worth it. I'm not tolerating another male hurting Prism's feelings.

Maybe then I'll see the actual appeal to those fantasies of hers....goodness she's such a love sick puppy...

She is a teenager though...

**************

"Hey, Fido! Breakfast is ready!"

I growled at the name one her friends called me. I quickly put back Prism's jacket on top of the new outfit I wore. I accidentally ripped up some of them, you can't blame me I'm not used to having thumbs. I'll quickly get used to it...

"Whoever called me such an atrocious name is about to pay for their transgressions!" I growled as I barged into the kitchen.

"Fido, are you ok-what are you wearing?!"

"YOU."

With a flick of the wrist the girl was surrounded by a silver glow before she was held, suspended in the air. Prism's other roommate stared at me in shock as I walked towards the girl I held in midair.

"State your name child!" I demanded. "Don't you remember?! I'm Luna! Fido, what's gotten-"

"Don't ever call me such a repulsive name again halfling. I'm not like my other self who tolerates such mockery,"

"Oh, you must be Prism's inner wolf," the other girl I assumed was called Julia said. I turned my gaze to her and replied "I am. I assume you are...Julia correct?"

"Yeah..."

"It's a pleasure to meet you. I assume you're not like this immature brat with the stereotypical nicknames,"

"Hey! I just-"

"SILENCE GNAVE!!"

"No, I tend to call Prism just by her name uummm...."

"Nebula. That is what she calls me," I replied while still holding Luna with my silver magic. Julia stared at me curiously before tilting her head to the side. "You two look alike except your hair is longer and more wilder. Not to mention your voice is slightly deeper and your eyes look like they could freeze someone solid,"

"Why thank you! I like you, it seems you have more respect than your friend over here,"

"Thanks...ummm......could you....let her go now? Please?"

"I assume she's had enough," I sighed as I snapped my fingers, releasing Luna from my hold. "If you ever call me by one of those pet names you call Prism I'll make you wish you were never born. GOT IT?!" I growled while punching a hole into the wall to make my point.

"Y-yes ma'am! I promise! I swear! Just please, don't eat me!"

"Eat you? Please, you would give me high cholesterol..."

"Hey, that's kind of mean!"

"Don't care! So, what kind of meal did you two prepare? I'm expecting a proper full course meal if you all are constantly battling against Terra and the forces of evil,"

"Prism's normal meal is just bacon,"

"That's it?" I asked. "Yeah, she loves this stuff. She does eat other things, but she's like addicted to bacon," Luna explained. I picked up the thin piece of meat and sniffed it cautiously. I didn't smell anything toxic, but just to be safe I took a little bite.

One taste.

One taste sent my tastebuds and my mind into a wave of euphoria. The crunch, the texture....I could TASTE it. It was...it was....

"Delicious. I feel like I could climb the Himalayas and ride with the Valkyrie's all the way to Valhalla and conquer the mighty Frost Giants of Middle Earth. The power of bacon has...REVITALIZED ME!"

I then devoured the entire plate. No, I didn't eat the plate, but I did lick it clean.

"You. Luna," I snapped my fingers to get the girl's attention. "Y-yes?"

"I ask for a second helping of this delectable appetizer.....please,"

"What?"

Do people not speak English anymore?!

"I SAID GET ME MORE FOOD NOW!!" I roared which slightly shook the place. Luna wasted no time with bringing me what I desired most, she brought back two plates this time which I quickly devoured as well.

Gods, this pup has it easy. I guess there's one more thing I need to check out before I try that Icee....

"Julia,"

"Yes, Ms. Nebula?"

"I simple Nebula will do just fine dear. I tolerate your presence than your friend right here. I was wondering if you could spare some information on Prism's crush. Corrin Ravage or something like that,"

"You mean Cory Savage?"

"Yeah, whatever his name. I don't really care much about him, but I'll see if he's worth my time,"

"Why do you say that?" Luna asked me. "Let's be honest. Prism is a Werewolf and they are very protective and possessive of their mates. She's taken quite a liking to that boy, but she's been countering her instincts by putting herself down. Also, if Cory is like anything she's described to me then obviously she has rivals, especially that Tori girl. Prism may trust her completely, but that's because she's too naïve. I don't trust her because, I highly doubt she got over him that easily. Basically, I just want to meet him to see if he's worth protecting for Prism's sake,"

"And if he's not?"

I cracked my knuckles as a dark aura surrounded me. "You really don't want me to answer that. If you were to witness such a thing, you would have Prism locked up in a cell with a shock collar around her neck while being handcuffed and blinded,"

Both girls shuddered at the thought. "I apologize for startling you, but I just don't want her to get hurt by a Demon again,"

"Again?"

"Yes. Cory isn't the first child of Lucifer she's met. At the time she didn't know who Lucifer was except for someone her mother deeply hated, but there was a child she met when she was young. He had gray eyes much like Cory except, Black Shadow tainted his mind, making him....mentally unstable,"

"So, we're they a thing?"

"Oh, heavens no! Prism, was far too innocent and oblivious to his emotions. She just wanted to be his friend, but her loved ones always told her to stay away from him. After her father died she started being more rebellious, then after her grandparents were brutally murdered there was suspicion that the boy was the killer and was also responsible for the other murders that happened prior to her grandparents's murder,"

"So, what did Prism do?"

"Anything a dumbass would've done. She snuck out to find him and prove his innocence. During that time she was 14 and the boy had just turned 16 and that's the age were most young ones experience there transformation for the first time. Having the blood of a Demon and a Wolf is a dangerous mix, it was already bad enough with Black Shadow controlling him. The boy couldn't control his wolf instincts. Luckily, the transformation wore off before he could do any serious harm to Prism,"

"So, he killed all those people and then Fido's folks. W-was he planning on killing her too?"

"If only that was the case Luna. That boy wasn't stable, but he loved Prism-he'd worship the very earth she walked. If anything those murders weren't his intention they were...someone else's. He just wanted Prism-in fact he was obsessed with her. I believe you are all aware of the term....yandere?"

"Yeah..."

"I think that's the word to properly sum him up,"

"Oh gods, Prism..."

"He did confess to her and Prism declined him, but with good intent. She said: "I can't be the person to make you happy, if I'm robbing lives of others," and besides that even though Prism was too young to transform then, she knew she was destined to be his,"

"Destined?"

"Oh, I read about that. Werewolves have like this type of tracking instinct to find their destined mate. It works like a metal detector and a timer, it lets them know if they're close to their destined mate. Once they see them it's like they're under this 'Love at first sight' spell. It only happens with one person, if a Werewolf loses their mate that can't fall in love again or if their mate rejects them it...."

"It does what?...."

"It kind of sends them into a bad state of depression, but it's worse if their mate dies. Most Werewolves don't survive after that it's like 1 out of 4000 chances of surviving life without them, because they're connected once they're mated,"

"Julia is very much correct. Prism's mother is one of the very few to survive without their mate. I don't find it surprising since Prism's father is human, but oh well,"

"Back to the story! What did he say? WHAT DID HE SAY?"

"W-w-Luna this isn't some Shakespearean drama!"

"It sounds like one..." Luna replied which made me sigh. Honestly, how is Prism not stupid yet, by hanging around her?

"Long story short: he kidnapped her and held her captive for six months,"

"And?...."

Again I sighed. "On the Fourth of July, he gave her a choice. Either submit and be his mate or he'll do it by force. She refused and you can guess what happened...."

"Oh my gods..."

"He didn't..."

I nodded my head sadly. I still feel guilty about that time, I wished I could've took Prism's place to shield her from ever experiencing that, but alas the gods had other ideas.

"He did, luckily he didn't get the chance to mark her so, she isn't mated. Her friend had found them and managed to rescue Prism. She herself nearly died during the rescue, she has a scar where she had fought him off. Prism....well there's a reason why she wears this jacket..."

I took off the jacket revealing the evidence and reminder of what Prism went through.

"Her arms....what did he do to her?!"

"Basically abused her until she surrendered, but she was far too hardheaded as usual. Her powers have been trying to heal them, but her arms were burnt by Black Shadow's flames. They're forever healing yet, forever burning. Each time one scar heals, another one opens,"

"Maybe, I can heal it,"

"I'm sorry, Julia. This wound refuses to be healed by any magic or spell, her mother tried countless times. The only way for it to heal is...maybe if Prism realizes her purpose. Maybe then the old scars can finally heal,"

"Now, I get it..."

"Hmm?" I looked at Julia in confusion. "The reason you want to meet Cory is for closure. You want to make sure that the..."

"Past doesn't repeat itself. Yes, it's true I can tell she loves him very dearly, but I'm too worried about old scars renewing themselves-metaphorically speaking. I just don't want her to get hurt again..."

There was silence as Julia and Luna exchanged looks before smiling at me. "Well, you have our word. Prism is safe with us and there's no way we'll ever let that happen. She has a whole bunch of friends who care about her,"

"We had no idea Fido had it bad. That explains why she feels like crap sometimes. If only she told us-"

"That's the thing, Luna. She can't,"

"Why not?"

"That time is something she can't express without screaming. It's bad enough she's has nightmares and violent flashbacks of him. Everything that happened to her....broke her and since then she's been trying to fix herself,"

"She has PTSD,"

"Yes-goodness Julia! You're so smart,"

"Well, I do read..."

"That's an easier way of putting it, I guess. Now, can we get going? I would like to meet the rest of your friends and try an Icee. Those things have been bugging me,"

"Why not? Follow us, Fido-"

"WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT THAT NICKNAME?!!"

"AAAAAHHHHH!!! I'M SORRY!!"

"Hey, Skylar! Koushiro! Meet the newest member of the gang! Nebula!"

"Luna....this is just Prism....why is she dressed like she's in a biker gang?" The girl named Skylar sweatdropped.

"I'm not Prism also, it's not my fault I ripped up her clothes. I'm not used to having thumbs okay?!"

"Holy shit, her voice is different..." The Kitsune commented.

*sniff sniff*

"She smells different too!"

An irk marked appeared on my head as the Kitsune smelled me.

*WHAP!*

"Don't you EVER smell me again in your life or I'll turn you into a fur coat!....oh, sorry I punched your boyfriend Skylar,"

"Wha?"

"I wish you luck in your future thousand year relationship. If Nikki bothers you again just call! Come on girls, let's keep it moving," I said as I dragged Luna and followed Julia as she lead the way.

"Wow, Prism was right. I think I just found Akumu her new best friend,"

Then she heard a groan coming from the floor.

"Oh snap! I forgot! Shiro!"

"Fang, Lily, Heather. Nebula. Nebula, meet Fang, Lily, and Heather,"

"Hi..." They all greeted me nervously. "I'm not going to bite you so relax.....I CAN SMELL FEAR,"

They all shivered in response. "Umm...let's keep...moving...."

"Gabriel, Jonathan, Tori, Tsuki...this is Nebula, Fido's-"

"GGGGGgggggrrrrrrrrrrr......"

"*gulp* I mean Prism's inner wolf,"

"Hi, Nebula,"

"Hello,"

"What's up?"

I looked towards Gabriel and bowed in respect. "An honor to meet you Storm-sama,"

"What the f-"

I cut Luna off when I spoke again. "You're not the first Dragon my kin has met. We have many friends of them back in the ancient days. For that I am glad to meet another winged beast,"

"Thank you?"

"Jonathan, Tsuki. It is also nice to meet you, Jonathan, I hope you've been nice to Julia. I've read her memories and they're not nice,"

"E-everything's good! I've changed,"

"Good. So, I don't have to sharpen my claws then..."

I could visibly see Jonathan sweating nervously out of the corner of my eye as I somewhat glared at Tori.

She smells too much like *her*.

"Tori....is it?"

"Yes?"

I stood up as the lights began to flicker, my eyes glowed dangerously as the Silver magic began to flow fiercely in my blood making me glow and seem ghostly.

"I AM WATCHING EVERY MOVE YOU MAKE. PRISM MAY TRUST YOU, BUT I AM NOT LIKE HER. SO, BE WARY OF WHAT YOU DO UNLESS YOU WANT ME TO DO SOMETHING....DRASTIC,"

"Hold up. Are you trying to imply something?!"

"Tori, do what Prism's scary twin says, please! I've already lost 30 years off my life in the last three seconds and we all don't want to die," Jonathan begged as he shivered in fear along with Luna and Tsuki.

"Okay, so all that's left is Cory and Momo," Luna said as I finished eating my blue raspberry Icee.

Wowzers!.....never saying that again, but gods that tasted divine! Maybe this generation isn't absolute shit as I thought it was.

"Hey, I found them!" Julia said as she came into the room followed a person and....

And....

And.....

Oh gods, what gift has been blessed bestoweth upon my eyes?

I quickly walked towards the person and scooped them up into my arm. "DEAR GODS YOU ARE ADORABLE!!"

Luna sweatdropped as she whispered to Julia. "I literally thought she was talking about Cory for a second,"

"It seems like she's got a soft spot for Momo,"

"Are you Prism's twin sister? You look like her,"

"In a way, I just don't have a physical body so, I'm using hers," I giggled. This child is so adorable! ☺️

"So, where's Prism then?"

"Oh, she's here. I'm like "possessing" her in a way, she's probably asleep. Oohhhhhhh you're just so cute! You remind me of her little siblings back at home,"

"She has siblings?"

"Yes, four of them to be exact. Two boys and two little girls she....she misses them...."

"Nebula? Are you okay?"

I blinked as I put Momo down. "Yeah, I just...um....never mind-you were saying something?"

Luna shrugged "Nothing. Anyway, this is the guy right here?"

"You're Cory Savage?"

"Yeah, Julia said you wanted to talk to me,"

"Yes....I did," I smirked as I snapped my fingers making everything go dark.

I sat on the ledge of one of the fallen pillars in my mindscape waiting for Cory to wake up. I wanted to have a more private talk so, I dragged into my side of me and Prism's shared mind.

My mindscape was a replica to an old castle of the old Moon Queens. It looked very old, but I didn't care. The surrounding area was covered with trees as far as the eye could see with a mountain range dividing me and Prism's side. It was night on my side, while the sun was shining on Prism's on the other side.

I was also back in the body I often appeared as--a wolf. Which was an absolute blessing to me.

Cory began to wake up, to speed up the process I dropped a bubble of water from the fountain nearby on him by using my Silver Magic.

"What the hell?! Wait, where am I?"

"In me and Prism's mind. Well, you're in my mind as of right now, Prism is with Julia and Luna. As of now you're asleep, but rest assured you're safe,"

"Then get to it. What do want me for?"

I jumped off the ledge and began to pace around him. "Lets get the bad blood part of this. When do you plan on telling her the truth?"

"The truth? The truth about what?" He asked me. I scoffed, he knows damn well what I'm talking about.

"The fact that she's befriended her own father's murderer and happens to be his wife in Earth-30 only to be discovered as dead. Judging from your memories I was able to connect with your daughter's for one brief moment to discover that future Prism was killed by Black Shadow. The question of who it could be remains..."

I then stopped in front of him as he gave me a cold glare. "Well? Care to put two and two together Cory? Or should I say...Mary?"

He lunged at me only for my body to dissolve and appear back on the ledge.

"Don't bother child. I don't have a body for you to lacerate also, you're in my world now. Be fortunate that I didn't disable your powers, like I told the others, I've been mastered my powers to the point it nearly rivals the gods. However, even they are weak themselves..."

"How did get inside my head in the first place? Your ability shouldn't be that different from Skylar's. I should've sensed you,"

"Probably because, I'm not psychic. This is ancient magic I use, I only need little than two seconds to see your memories. In fact, I've been reading everyone's memories when they weren't aware. Especially, Tori's since I see her as a threat in particular and I think you know why unless you want to play dumb again,"

"Zia," Cory breathed out as he realized who I was talking about. "Oh, so you're not a complete idiot after all. Good," I began to walk away into a part of the old castle.

"Come on, I don't have all day!" I barked out to the boy impatiently. He quickly followed me and caught up to my side. "You know it's not the fact that I wasn't planning on telling her, it's more like I wasn't aware she was related to a murderer as well,"

"It's funny how you say that. You killed him the same way your future self probably killed her. Of course, I'm just speculating, her father was a killer, but he was also the killer of a bloody legacy. He destroyed his own family for one She-Wolf that he loved with his heart--I believe you're familiar with her as well,"

"Fauna?"

"Correct. She has the same power I have except....it's beyond my understanding. I guess I know where I get it from, like mother like daughter,"

"How do know about Black Shadow?"

"Probably because, your father is a complete stud--do you think you're the only son of Lucifer out there?! Prism has met someone who struggled against Black Shadow like you. However, no matter how hard he fought, they always pushed him down. When he was weak, it gained full control of him, he became crazy and a homicidal killer. Prism tried to save him and in the end he ended up harming her as well, but I don't think he got away unscathed from that nasty bite she left him courtesy of me. She can be more slick than a Yōkai sometimes,"

We stopped in front of two large doors that I knew all too well. Especially, when Zia first took us to this room.

"What you're about to see in here is Zia's old legacy and why she's after Prism. You're not going to remember any of this however, because I'm going to to erase your memory of this place,"

Before Cory could question me the doors were opened. There in a doorway stood a woman whose blonde hair was now silver, but her hazel eyes remained as bright and gentle as always.

"Miraj,"

"I see you brought the boy. Tsk, tsk, goodness to think my granddaughter would get herself in another mess,"

"Cory, this is Miraj. One of the descendants of the Queen's guards, the Strix Sisterhood. Simply for you, she's Connor's mother,"

Before Cory could speak, Miraj held up her hand. "I know you killed him and I bear no ill will about it. Connor did his part in this world and that was to bring Prism into our lives. She is the only one who can stop Zia, which is why I've come to thank you for looking after her and being the friend she truly needed."

There was silence, but we continued on our way with Miraj leading. "I wasn't interested in the bloody sport that my husband so foolishly indulged in. I did not raise my children like that, they played the part of what I told them to to do.  Except, Connor since his father expected so much of him... I wasn't able to help him realize his purpose until that fleeting moment when he married Fauna,"

"What do you mean?"

"Cory, have you ever seen a spider eat an insect? Do you think the spider was given a choice to kill it? Or do you think it has to because, it's a spider and it knows that the insect's life is needed for its own survival?"

"Well, it's a spider and it knows it's above the food chain compared to the insect. So, eating it is necessary for it to live,"

"A simple answer. It could just release knowing it's not going to live anyway and another insect will always fall into its trap. You see everything is pre-ordained in this world. Society tries to hold you down telling you to do this and that, if you step out of line you're an outcast and killed for being different. It's the same for both humans and monsters alike, they see each other as different entities yet, they fail to see the common enemy they both share,"

"Who are you?"

Miraj smiled at Cory. "Probably an old woman rambling crazy talk. The crazy people tend to be the wisest if you look at things differently than what the normal person would....like this tapestry,"

It was Zia's. Once again shrouded in darkness and separated from the others. An outcast in its own way.

"We stand together as sisters in a world of black and white. We walk the path of darkness and blood to protect the light. We are not held by society nor law for our future is ours to carve. We are sisters united under the night and by our blood we vow to defend the light and our future,"

"Briar Rose, what are you doing here?" I asked. She turned around and smiled "reminiscing I guess. I feel like I've matured in one way yet, I feel I've just started learning what my role truly is,"

"This is Briar Rose, one of Prism's younger siblings. The magic flows in her blood, but nothing compared to Prism. She and Holly have took on the way of the sisterhood," Miraj explained.

"You could've just said what amazing protégés we are," Briar Rose giggled. "And feed your ego? No dear, I rather save the details for why the media can't figure out that two six year olds managed to a kill a tyrannical leader in the Middle East. I'll admit you did a very good job," Miraj replied.

"Cory Savage, is it?"

"Yes?"

"How's my big sister? Is she...happy?"

"Hasn't Nebula told you?"

"No, she can't see what big sister sees. I can't see well myself, but I can sense she feels different than when I last saw her,"

"She seems happy. She smiles a lot, she acts weird around me though,"

"Oh.... I see, thank you for telling me."

"Is something wrong Rosie?" I asked her.

"I had a dream. She spoke to me,"

"Who?"

"Her. Zia's coming,"

We all fell in total silence. I felt the surrounding area grow dark, I need to get Cory out of here.

"Look, we don't have much time. I know I said I was going to erase your memory, but this is important," I said to Cory as we began running back to the entrance.

Zia's tapestry seems to have been smiling at us eerily.

"No matter what happens. You mustn't let that charm leave Prism's neck, you mustn't let Zia get a hold of Prism's powers. If that happens then you'll have more than Terra to worry about. I'm trusting you to protect her,"

"If the Queen of darkness prevails...the prophecy.... The false god will be born..."

"Miraj, you and Rosie can go. I'll send him back,"

Miraj nodded, but Briar Rose stayed behind shortly to stare at Cory. "Beware the full moon for she will strike again,"

With Briar Rose took off after Miraj. "I don't like you, but you mean a lot to Prism so, don't screw up. After all, I am the type to bite the hand that feeds me,"

Cory then fell unconscious under my magic once again as his body began to disappear. I felt the dark atmosphere melt away, but I still felt like she was listening in.

"Don't test me, Zia. I'm not the one to mess with, you will fall."

(A/N: Yay! Over 500 words! Yeesh...man, the New Years was so tiring for me! Half of my family got drunk and then my whole neighborhood showed up and how I know it's the whole neighborhood because, every neighborhood has that one old person who knows everybody. Even my old ex boyfriend was there and at the time I was talking to Stickman01 and LeafyKitsune and was like:

Ex: hey

Me: piss off~

Ex: who are you talking too? Your friends?

Me: Yeah, they're funny, awesome, and way good looking than you'll ever be

Ex: no need to be mean

Me: You.cheated.on.me.with.four.girls.at.the.same.time.

Ex: I didn't-

Me: bull shark! You even cheated on my best friend! You never told her we were dating. You're just a gold digger!

Then he smacked me. Now normally I don't promote violence and I really didn't want to go to jail. So, I calmly went to my room and came back out.

Ex: have you come to apologize?

Me: no, but I came here to show you the joy of being a girl *holds up a katana* go ahead boi! Try me! I swear by the time I'm done with you, you'll be the one pregnant and your kids will come out as grown men and grow up to be babies because their daddy is a ****

Everyone at the party lost it. They've never seen me pissed and I started a brawl. Even now I wonder why no cops showed up and to think this happened during a conversation on Wattpad xD

Oh, well! Happy New Years! I love you guys so much! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️)
