"You worthless lap dog, you think you got me cornered" the man says as he walks back deeper into the alley. A shadow creeps closer to him as he begins to panic, sweating frantically. Without realizing it his back hits the end of the alley walls.
"Fuck," he says as he looks at the figure gets closer.
"Fine, if it's a fight you want..." As the figure gets closer, the man begins to change into a vicious beast: a hybrid of a wolf and a man.
"Last chance to run away you lapdog," he says as he runs his claws against the walls. His hands recreating the sound of one running their nails down a chalkboard . A mysterious figure emerged from the shadows wearing a dark black suit, black shoes, and a black tie.
"Vincent Van Cleve you have been charge with the murder of two innocent girls and have been deemed a hazard to society how do you plead." As the moon shines down in the alley the shadows disappear, revealing the man in the suit and the crest on the suit.
The hybrid begins to shake and tries to back up but hits the cold brick wall. "Come...on...we could work something out."
The man fixes his glasses as he walks forward as a rapier appears in front of him. "I refuse to die by the hands of lowlife."
The hybrid launches himself off the wall at the mysterious figure, his claws growing larger as he moves closer towards the man . In a blur, the man side steps and drives the rapier through the hybrid's heart, then kicks him off. The hybrid backs up and falls to the ground coughing up blood.
"Yo..u think..such a.stab..is..going to stop..me?" Looking up, he sees a figure above him. As lightning sparks around the sword, the figure let his serious yet irritated voice echo throughout the night.
"You have been deemed unqualified to live in our world. All conditions have been met,commencing execution." Swinging the sword down, blinding blue lightning comes crashing down on the hybrid, obliterating his body. The man begins to walk away as his phone suddenly begins to ring.
A female voice,captivating to the ear, echos on the other end. "How did it go?"
Looking back, he sighs, "A little too messy for my liking, but the target's been eliminated."
"So does it mean I have to send a cleanup crew?"
"Please and thank you Sarah." Right as he was about to hang up, she stopped him. "What is it" he asks.
"We found the kid you've been looking for. I'll send you a picture." The file is sent to his watch It pops up like a hologram with a kid with white hair running with a piece of bread in his mouth. Zooming in, he sees a familiar necklace. "I'd recognize that necklace from anywhere."
"Hey, who is he anyway?" Closing the hologram, he begins to leave the alley as a mist falls over the bloody scene.
"The son of a old friend." The man disappears as the sun begins to rise and the mist disperses, revealing an ordinary alleyway without a trace of any activity.

A gentle breeze blows through the town as traders goes in and out of the market; kids chase each other as they head out to the grassy fields surrounded by the thick woods to play. These are the same woods that they are told not to go near because it's filled with dangerous animals. As the kids begin to play with the ball, one of the boys accidentally kicks it too hard, sending into the woods, bouncing off the trees.
"Ahh look what you did," said one of the girls. "Now what are we supposed to do?"
"Be quiet....I'll go get it" the boy replied.
