CHAPTER 2:
For hours, Jennifer Stone laid there alone in her own clearing in the Burning Blair Forest. The news of her death rippled throughout the forest. The trees stood with a solemn solitude unlike any other day. Their leaves swayed with sadness, and the bushes and other shrubbery rustled with unease and despair. Before the human world even knew Jennifer Stone was dead, she was missed.
Blood trickled from her twisted body, creating little veins that ran throughout the forest. It was then; the Spirit of the Forest was summoned. From deep underneath the earth, she felt the warmth of the blood of an innocent, and the chill of injustice. Her cold, lifeless soul was awakened, seething with rage and a thirst for vengeance.

A light embodied Jennifer Stone’s body, shooting out from her open wounds. The Spirit’s hand absorbed the light, whispering “Who killed you?” Her eyes clamed shut as she took in the light, smiling. She sighed a sigh filled with pleasure, “Valkyrie … that was the name of the man who killed you…
