Chapter 1: I'm In a cave?
"Yeah dad, I'm heading over the trail now." My name is Vanessa Henver, 24 year's old, workaholic with a game addiction with any spare time I get.
"You should be careful. The Jake's said they've been running into weird animals around the woods." I'm currently talking to my father as I drive over to the their cabin. I bought it for them as a anniversary present. It was on the cheaper side but still cost me 5 years of my salary.
"Weird animals? Why did you only now say that now, dad!?" I slowed down significantly at the warning.
"Nobody's been hurt and your a coward who wouldn't come if i did, V." I felt my like I had been stabbed but I knew he was wasn't wrong.
"I wish could see you more Sweety~." Mom's words tipped me off to that mom probably convinced dad not to tell me. I slowly drove down a non paved road now glancing around nervously.
"I do too mom, I'm trying to get my weekends off but my boss is denying my requests saying 'You already get 10 hours off a day why would you need more' and I could only use some of my vacation days to visit." Memories of his stupid smirk but I don't have another job lined up yet.
"How did that bastard end up being your boss anyway?" I felt the same as my mom. He's been to running my branch of the company into the ground ever since he replaced Mike.
"He probably has family con- The hell is that?!" I pressed my breaks as a massive deer with what looked like crystal antlers jumped out infront of my car.
"V, what's wrong?" Me and the deer stared at each other before it ran off into the woods to ny left.
"Um... there was one of those weird animals, luckily it just left and didn't try to mess with the c-" I heard something to my right I turned just in time to see something crash into the car.
"Swee-" I couldn't do anything as it made me fly into the car door window.

Warmth surrounded me as I drifted in darkness.
Then I was forced into biting cold then warmed again.
Then cold hit me again and then hot, cold, hot, cold, hot, cold, so cold, it's so cold.
.

I woke up to dripping sounds and rain coming down hard around me. 'I'm alive, did my parents find me?'
'I want to see them.' I tried to sit up but struggled a few times before managing to and rubbed my eyes.
'I feel kinda weird, did I break something? but nothing hurts though?' I groggly opened my eyes expecting to be in my house but all I saw was dark blue walls, Stalactates, stalagmites and water all over the grimy floor.
'Where am I?' I tried to stand up but my legs couldn't handle my own weight causing me to fall and roll into a nearby puddle.
pushing myself up out of the puddle. The puddle slowly went still revealing the reflection of a brown bat looking back at me.
'W-what... WHAT THE HELL!?!?' *Squeak!* I started to panic seeing myself as not me but a animal.
I frantically started looking around for anything to explain what's going on. 'This kind of thing can actually happen!?'
I only snapped out my panic when a cold wind hit my back and realized that I'm freezing. 'Great I'm panicking, wet and really cold.'
'What should I...' I started to calm down when I looked up and saw a massive blood red bat staring at me with what I could think be shock. All could do was make a noise. *Squeak*
"A-are you alright, Vanessa?" The bat made some soft squeaks that I understood as words for some reason.
I wasn't sure how to respond to the giant bat asking if I was alright. "Y-yes." I tried to respond which somehow worked.
"G-good! hold still for a second while I pick you up." Before I could properly react I was picked up and held in their arms, Wings?
It was surprisingly warm in their embrace but I still had no idea what was going on. "Who are you?"
The big bat stayed quiet for a moment. I looked at her face to see them staring at me before their eyes widened. "Oh... right. you don't know me. But you seem smart my Vess? Is because of your trait? "
"Trait? My?" I just kept getting confused over and over again ever since I woke up, it was getting old to me.
"Well for now say status and tell me what trait you have." 'That wasn't really a answer but ok big bat.'
"Status?" I saw a small red and purple screen appeared in front of me.
:Species:Brown Bat
:Name: Venessa
:Vitality: G-
:Strength: H+
:Agility: F
:Intelligence: D+
:Trait:Enduring Soul
"Um... Enduring soul." I stared at screen as the bat wrapped its wings around me which was warm but I was nervous since I couldn't see anything.
"Weird, not a intelligence trait. Why do you speak so well?" The question made me think about how this can be happening.
"Am I related to you?" I really did not want to call them mom or dad.
"It's a bit strange to do this to a child that's less then a week old but I'm Xarana, your mother."
Chapter 2: Trying to Adapt.
It's been 3 days since I woke up(Or remembered my past life?) as a bat and things have been boring to be honest.
My Routine has included practicing stuff, eating fruit that Xarana brought and talking to Xarana.
She has been very interested in my past life and says my life as a human sounds like the reversed of what her life was like which made me interested.
I listened to her talk about her constantly fighting for her life against her siblings and even after she beat them, she had to keep fighting against the other beasts to feed herself.
This went on for at least 150 years until she was teleported to a strange place with her pregnant.
She has no clue about where we are and it seems numerous other beasts were also brought here.
"Vess. stop zoning out during practice." I looked at Xarana who was teaching me how to fly.
Yep you heard her correctly I'm leaning to fly! Although it been hard because I lost any animal instinct I had when my trait trigger.
So far I can stay in the air for 30 seconds before I get to tired to continue. "Was I the only one in your litter?"
Xarana looked at me panting after my latest flight attempt and picked me up. "You have a twin brother, his name is Zana."
"Where is he?" I'm still not sure if I enjoy being held because Xarana is my mom or because she's so warm.
"He left a week ago, he was the reason you were throwing that tantrum." I could tell she was upset with my brother.
"Was I attached to him?" I felt Xarana squeeze me.
"Yeah, you were absolutely obsessed with him." Xarana put me down to let me continue practicing.
"Was that tantrum me asking for him to come back?" I flapped until I was a meter off the ground and stayed there.
"Yeah, you were crying your lungs out until you passed out and then you forgot about him." I felt remorse in Xarana's voice. 'Did she call it a tantrum to make herself feel better?'
I didn't call Xarana on it because she seems to have also suffered from it. "Why did he leave so early?"
"He was grown up by time he was 4 days old and while we were asleep he left despite you not wanting him to." I knew there was more but I wasn't interested in finding out Xarana's mess ups.
"I'll go get fruit for my little Vess." I watched as Xarana left and landed in the makeshift nest I made with sticks she brought with the fruits.
Silence filled the cave and the creeping dread seeped in to my heart again. 'I miss mom.'
Every time this place goes quiet all I can think about is how cold the cave is and how the last words to my mom was talking about a deer. "I didn't even get to see her in the last 3 months."
I felt myself fall apart as my thoughts spiraled. 'Can I live here?'
'Why did I have to remember?' My life was helping my parents not suffer but now their suffering anyway from losing their only daughter and I knew it was my fault.
"Why didn't they have a second child?" I knew it was a stupid thought but I can't stop it.
I craved Xarana's comfort she always gave me when she's here. 'Should I leave with her?'
Xarana's presence soothes me for some reason, this is why I don't try to point out what she did wrong. 'She might abandon me if I criticize her.'
'She wouldn't get rid of me, she likes me...' I'm not sure if I believe the thought but I can't accept it.
*SNAP* I snapped out of my self loathing as I looked to the entrance that was luckily out of sight. *SNAP* 'Oh god.'
I flapped my wings in a panic to reach the ceiling. 'Come on, come on!'
Why am I panicking you ask? that noise the sticks Xarana set at the entrance as a alarm for us incase intruders try to sneak in.
I barely latched on to a stalactate just in time to hear a dog's growl.
"Where is it?" I heard whatever it is step in the puddles of the cave and it was getting closer. *Splash Splash*
*Badump Badump*
"Are you sure she had a child?" *SPlash SPlash*
*Badump Badump*
"Yeah she wouldn't bring the fruit that small back if she didn't have one." *SPLash SPLash*
*Badump Badump*
"We gotta hurry before that monster gets back." *SPLAsh SPLAsh*
*Badump Badump*
"We should have time to get the core. I've been timing her." *SPLASh SPLASh*
*Badump Badump*
"Where is it?" *SPLASH SPLASH*
*Badump Badump*
*Silence*
*Badump Badump*
*Badump Badump*
"Right there~" I slowly looked down to see two wolves staring at me with bloodlust.
