There it was; that spark, that feeling, that knowing. She felt it. She knew. Hex marveled in this as she felt the younger female leap on top of her, wrestling her to the ground. For a moment she let Marvel have this... this powerful feeling. Hex simply lay flat against the ground, smirking.
This was it. She would have her. She needed her.
"Thank you."
Hex whispered before thrusting herself up with all her upper body power, pushing Marvel back long enough to turn without hesitation or thought, she grabbed a hold of Marvel by the scruff of her neck and jerked her to the side roughly, rough enough to slam her body against a near by tree, rough enough to knock her out.
Darkness... that would be where Marvel would be reborn. Today she let go of her fear long enough to take control of her own fate. Today Hex found her reason. Today was an important day.
"Sleep. When you awake, the world will be anew."
With that, Hex dragged her body back into the forest, leaving behind a small trail of blood. Her own blood. Marvel had made her bleed. For the first time in years, Hex felt.
---
When the female would awake again, she would find herself in Hex's den, deep down into the middle of the forest.

She woke with a pounding headache, her previous last moments of awareness flashing through her mind. That she was alive was a miracle - Marvel knew not what had made the wolf spare her, since she had seemed so keen in that moment on ending her existence entirely. What she needed to do to preserve herself was find a way out of wherever she was now. Marvel glanced around the den, which could have been cozy if she were not so fearful of what was to come next.
With a small whimper, she pressed her paw to her head in a clumsy attempt to rub the spot that had been slammed into a tree. Marvel had to leave, before the crazy wolf came back and did something unspeakable to her. So, the young seer rose to her feet, glancing all around her for signs of the other wolf. Moving to the den opening, she peered outside cautiously. She couldn't see anyone, though that did not mean they were not there. Usually, it was the exact opposite case. Hex had appeared seemingly out of nowhere when they had first met.
The wolf could be watching her now, waiting for her to make a move, and that feeling of being watched was entirely unsettling. Marvel was not sure if there was any way to escape it. Likely, there was not. "Hello?" her voice creaked.
