Translation

Behold the child of Bastet Violet. Born from a long line of lycanthropes she is just the latest. Born in Appalachia the only surviving cub of a litter of three she was raised in a community of love and understanding. Her parents had long before she was born founded a kind of reserve where others of their kind could come and raise their children without fear of being poached or persecuted. Such was the case until Violet was four years old.

After romping in the woods for awhile by herself as she returned to the compound the sounds and smells of violent death assaulted her. Smart for her age she climbed into a tree to hide as before her young eyes her family and the families of her friends and loved ones were cut down brutally. All of the inhabitants of the compound had taken their animal forms and were fighting mightily but were no match for the automatic gun fire that mowed them down one by one. It seemed to take days for the humans to leave. She watched as each corpse was strung up in nearby trees and carefully skinned. Most of the organs were also taken for what she overheard to be research.

Too scared to go anywhere Violet crept out of that tree close to dawn the next day and lay down amidst the left over gore. Not knowing what to do, she hunted the nearby woods for rabbits and whatever else she could catch. But at sunset each night she cowered under the house she'd lived in, sleeping among rats and other creatures beneath the house.

weeks or months passed, she was never sure how much time went by when humans came into her home again. A large soft spoken man and a team of efficient looking young people came into the compound. They carried the pet carriers she'd seen in some of the other houses. She watched from her position under the house trembling inside. Half starved and most likely dying she ran to the man when he called for survivors. Her coat dull and covered with briers and various other litter all she could do was mewl as the man cradled her. Whispering that it would all be alright now. She'd have a new home and family.

The man was a doctor named Victor Rixens. Dr.Rixens and his team of veterinarians and pediatricians swept her away to a paradise. Some 50 miles off the Georgia coast Dr.Rixens had a research facility. It was a dream come true. There were other young lycanthropes to play with, plenty of fresh air, food and play. Violet came of age in a pampered and loved enviornment. And then as she grew to be a young woman she became suspicious of all the blood tests and endless note taking of the island gaurds etc.

As most felines are Violet is insatiably curious, always wanting to know more. During one of the rare moments when the staff wasn't paying attention she snuck into Dr.Rixens private office. There she found proof of what had been lurking in the back of her mind. To their outwardly loving foster father they were nothing more than lab animals. It was Dr.Rixens' mission to isolate and replicate the lycanthropy gene in order to create a better race of them.

Hurt and enraged Violet ran. Taking only a few possesions in a sealed plastic bag, one of the othes secured to a collar she plunged into the water and swam for her life.

Violet has been on the run ever since. Along the way she's run into her share of problems. Vampire boyfriends, an adddiction to blood and most recently another shifter named Ethan. With her only friend Vale she's settled in New York. Ethan has become an entirely new problem. Half of her wants nothing more than to settle down with him, raise a few cubs and live happily ever after. However Ethan lives a dangerous life that Violet is not well suited to. And just recently he's shoved her out of his life after one of her reknown tantrums. Hurt deeply by this Violet has arrived at a crossroads. Does she remain in a city that may erupt in an all out war of the undead just to be near him or, does she take her little friend Vale and run again. She doesn't know. Return here soon for updates.
