Short filmTranscript
00:00Ah, I wonder if we'll have you to join us. The chef made you a plate.
00:17Actually I was thinking of grabbing something from the bakery in town.
00:20Vincent, you heard her. Copy that, I'll take her.
00:23An escort? Seriously?
00:26What, you think I'd let you out on your own the day of the claiming ceremony?
00:31Because you've earned my trust or something, yeah?
00:36And I thought Grandfather was overprotective.
00:39God, he's such a wiseass.
00:52I hate not being able to go to school today.
00:55I don't want to carry the secret anymore.
01:05Your dress for the claiming ceremony.
01:12Well, this is it.
01:26Where is she? The ceremony is about to begin.
01:29Patience, Elder Frederick.
01:32This is already a disaster.
01:34I mean, this is Trinity Witton. She's basically powerless.
01:39How can we expect her to be the new Luna?
01:56Welcome, Red Springs Wolf Pack.
01:59Today we are here to celebrate a momentous occasion.
02:03Our pack has found its Luna.
02:07She is here tonight, and I will bring her out now to mark her before you all.
02:26Why can't he look at me?
02:29He must think I'm ugly.
02:33Goddess, help me.
02:36I need her.
02:42Are you ready?
02:44I think so.
02:48Where, ladies, and where, men of the Red Springs,
02:52Where, ladies, and where, men of the Red Springs Pack,
02:56I now present to you our Luna,
02:59Trinity Witton.
03:10No, no, no, no, no, no.
03:13I refuse to accept this.
03:15She doesn't even have her wolf yet.
03:18Do you really expect us to take her as our leader?
03:21This is insane. We have to get her off there.
03:23She doesn't deserve it.
03:25What is she doing up there?
03:27We're going to need to get Trinity to safety if they revolt.
03:30I knew this wouldn't go wrong.
03:32Forever.
03:34Forever.
03:36Force!
03:39She may not have a wolf, but she is my chosen Luna.
03:44The Goddess has spoken, and we must respect the fate.
03:48It is time.
03:53Are you ready?
03:57I'm going to be gentle, but try not to scream.
03:59This is it. The end of my life.
04:14Are you all right?
04:16I'm fine.
04:44Hey.
04:50Hey.
04:56I can't stand how much I want her.
04:58I just wanted to check on you. I know the ceremony was rough.
05:02I told you they wouldn't accept me.
05:04I'm still the disgrace they think I am.
05:06Screw them. All right? You're their Luna now.
05:09They have to bow down to you no matter what they believe.
05:13Can I come in?
05:16Yeah.
05:23Just looking at him makes me nervous.
05:26He's so handsome.
05:32I should have never trusted her.
05:38Look, before you get any ideas about what's going to happen tonight,
05:41let's set some things straight.
05:43Like what?
05:45Like how this is going to go.
05:47You may be my mate, but in name only.
05:49Excuse me?
05:51I never wanted a mate, all right?
05:53But if the Goddess demands I take you, fine.
05:56But we will never be intimate, all right?
05:59You're merely an assignment to me.
06:01Is that understood?
06:03So what? You tricked me into being your Luna by pretending there was something between us?
06:09I never pretend...
06:11Get your emotions in check.
06:13Well, if I'm nothing to you, then you're nothing to me.
06:17Get out of my room, you feral dog!
06:21Why did you call me?
06:23You heard me.
06:25If I'm a weak little bunny, then you're a disgusting dog.
06:30I will never love you.
06:40How am I supposed to live like this?
06:45Vincent, can't you wait in the car? Everyone's watching.
06:49No, I can't, Luna.
06:53Hey, that's my friend, and I'd really like to talk to her in private.
06:56Can you give us some space?
06:58Of course, Luna. Please, take your time.
07:06Trinity!
07:10Holy Goddess, you're the freaking Lunatron!
07:13Yes, trust me, I know.
07:15What's it like? What's the elf's personality like? Is his body insane?
07:18After the ceremony, did you two, you know?
07:21No.
07:23What? Wait, let me see your mark, at least.
07:25Oh, no, no, no! It hasn't formed yet.
07:29I always liked how mine had these cool vines.
07:32Every mark is different. A depiction of the couple's devotion.
07:36I wonder what yours is going to have.
07:39We will never be intimate. You're merely an assignment to me.
07:43Padlocks, daggers, toxic waste.
07:46I guess we'll see.
07:50Look, Vincent's waiting for me, so I really gotta go.
07:53Trin, are you okay?
07:55I know this all came as a shock, but if you're not okay, you can tell me.
07:59I can't tell her the truth. I have to protect the pack now.
08:03Fine.
08:04And the pack needs to believe their Luna is strong.
08:06Never better. I mean, I'm the Luna, after all, aren't I?
08:10Look, um, I'll see you around, okay?
08:14Okay.
08:24Bad day, boss?
08:25More like a bad week.
08:27Sit.
08:28Alright, what do you got for me? Run through the list.
08:31Alright.
08:33You're needed at the Azure River pack to discuss the plan for warlock mitigations and other threats to the two packs.
08:39Hmm. It's been a while since I've seen my cousin.
08:43Let him know I'll be there by the end of the week.
08:46We need a plan for those inbreds, and soon.
08:49Vincent, you'll come with us for protection.
08:55Unless you have other pressing engagements aside from protecting myself and the Luna.
08:59Well, it's just... I'm so sorry, sir, but my wife Heather is pregnant with our first pup.
09:07And she's due any day now.
09:10Damn it. I forgot.
09:15She can't handle that on her own, I'm assuming?
09:21Fine, fine. Stay here. We'll protect ourselves.
09:25And, Vincent, uh, congratulations.
09:29A pup is a blessing, shall I hear.
09:36Shall we leave you, sir?
09:38Yes, please.
09:39Oh, and, uh, sir, the information you requested.
09:49Alright. Time to discover more about my darling Luna.
10:00I feel bad I've been so cold to her.
10:02What?
10:04I know it's not easy losing a mother.
10:09Who would do this to her?
10:13And why?
10:30My mother. After my father died, my mother was never the same.
10:36It's as if she died that day, too.
10:40I have to go away for a few days to visit Riley and his pack.
10:45She's coming with me, too.
10:48Oh! Oh, you really don't have to.
10:51Yes, I do, Luna. Especially since I'm not accompanying you to Azure River.
10:55But, hey, some honeymoon time with your mate, huh?
10:59Yeah, gee, I just can't wait.
11:03Well, he can be rough around the edges, but he isn't all bad.
11:09That's news to me. Let's just say I really do wish you were coming. Your better company.
11:16Will you promise me something, Luna?
11:18Do not, under any circumstance, go off on your own in Azure River.
11:22It's a rough area. Rival packs. Warlocks.
11:28Please. Promise me?
11:31Yeah, I promise. But seriously, how bad can it be?
11:37I'll take your bags to the car.
11:52I'll be back in a few days.
11:55What if we can't protect ourselves until you're here?
11:59I guess I haven't told you the news yet.
12:02I'm mated now.
12:06Your boy's all grown up.
12:10She's pretty. In a way that's different than the rest of the pack.
12:16She's smart, too. Well, that's at least what her cousin says.
12:23But she doesn't have a wolf.
12:27What if she can't protect herself when she needs to? Or worse, what if she can't protect the pack?
12:33You know, like, what was the goddess thinking when she paired us together?
12:38I don't know.
12:42Maybe I'm too hard on her.
12:45Anyway, I'll be back in a few days.
12:50Take care of yourself until then, okay?
12:54Hey.
12:57I love you.
13:15What are you doing?
13:18Um, nothing. Nothing. Just waiting for you.
13:24Right. Well then, let's get on with it. I'm driving.
13:29Okay.
13:43Do you always drive like that?
13:46Like what?
13:48Like a jackass, to put it lightly.
13:51You really need to toughen up a little, buddy.
13:54What are we doing at your cousin's place anyway?
13:57What, you two need to howl together and run through the forest?
14:01You really don't get it, do you?
14:03Well, enlighten me then.
14:05Well...
14:07Cousin! You made it!
14:09Riley! It's good to see you, man.
14:12Good to see you.
14:14It's been too long.
14:16And you brought your new beautiful Luna. What is someone as gorgeous as you doing with my cousin?
14:20Alright, alright. Down, boy. She's mine.
14:23My goodness, where are my manners? This is my lovely mate, Katie.
14:27Very pleased to meet you, Luna.
14:29Uh, I'm the Luna here, too?
14:33Uh, forgive me. She's running on the job.
14:37Well, come on. Let's go get a drink.
14:41It's a long-standing treaty we have that we preside over as your river. Your reign extends here, too.
14:47Well, how was I supposed to know that?
14:48Just try not to embarrass me or yourself again. Got it?
14:53Alright.
14:56Hey.
15:02I feel a rush whenever I touch her.
15:04I feel a rush whenever I touch her.
15:17So Reese over here thought it'd be a great idea to put pillows in the bed to make it look like we hadn't snuck out.
15:22Like that was gonna work.
15:24Got us both grounded.
15:26There are endless stories like this for them to tell you.
15:30Alright, alright. In my defense, I was young and a little... dumb.
15:34Ah, so nice to hear your humility for once.
15:37Wow, she's a spitfire, cuz.
15:40Alright, we have some snacks. Make yourselves at home. Any drinks, anyone?
15:45Yes, please.
15:47I'll help you out, Katie.
15:51I just don't see Reese having that rebellious side to him.
15:55Oh, you don't know your mate as well as I do, then.
15:58This guy was always letting his wild side out. Drove his father crazy.
16:03May he rest in peace.
16:05Yes.
16:08Riley, can I ask, what happened to him? Reese's father.
16:14It's a terrible story, really.
16:18A rival pack infiltrated our territory.
16:20A rival pack infiltrated our territory.
16:29The leader of that pack, one of our greatest enemies...
16:40Blindsided him one day.
16:47I should have never trusted her.
16:51In the end, Reese's father was betrayed by a woman named Mandy.
16:57A wolfless woman.
17:01Reese was never the same.
17:04Shut the world out.
17:07I can imagine. That's... terrible.
17:13No wonder he hates me.
17:15The woman who betrayed his father was wolfless. Just like me.
17:21But, now he's found you. I see such a change in him already.
17:26What? Really?
17:29Oh, yeah. He's a whole new wolf. You don't see the effect you have on him?
17:36I guess I just didn't realize that...
17:39Alright, some drinks for you all. I'm gonna go and make sure that your room is all set up, but I'll see you in a bit.
17:45I'll help you with that, love.
17:50Here, drink.
17:51Thanks.
17:53Cheers.
18:06It's beautiful.
18:09Yeah, Raleigh's estate's been a part of our family for years now.
18:12Oh, not that. The music.
18:17Oh.
18:21Did I ever tell you about my mom?
18:25No, but it's okay. You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to.
18:29Well, I want to.
18:33I never knew my mom.
18:37Growing up, all the girls had moms who loved them and cared for them.
18:44I couldn't even remember what mine looked like.
18:48When I was ten, I asked Aunt Eve about her. I just wanted to know something, anything.
18:56But Aunt Eve didn't want to talk about Mom.
19:00I guess the pain was still too raw for her.
19:04Instead, she handed me an envelope and made me swear to never tell Grandfather.
19:09It was a photo of my mom at prom.
19:12She was with this boy, and they were dancing.
19:18My God, her eyes and her smile.
19:25She was magnificent.
19:31Anyway, I don't know what to say.
19:33Magnificent.
19:39Anyway, I just always imagined her dancing to a song like this one.
19:49Here.
19:51What?
19:54Dance with me.
19:56Right now?
19:57Yeah.
19:58Where?
20:04Here.
20:09I know how hard it is to lose someone that you love.
20:34I love you.
20:36I love you.
20:38I love you.
20:40I love you.
20:42I love you.
20:44I love you.
20:46I love you.
20:48I love you.
20:50I love you.
20:52I love you.
20:54I love you.
20:56I love you.
20:58I love you.
21:00I love you.
21:02I'm sorry.
21:04No, it's okay.
21:07Am I interrupting something?
21:09Um, would you excuse me? I just need a moment.
21:14Yeah, of course.
21:20That looked intense.
21:23Was it?
21:32That kiss. It was everything.
21:37It felt like a tidal wave breaking in me.
21:41You feral dog!
21:43I will never love you.
21:45Little did he know it was my first kiss ever.
21:53But I can't fall for him. It doesn't change anything. He hates me and I hate him. Right?
21:58Come on, pull yourself together, Luna.
22:05What is that? Who is that?
22:12Run me through this again. How many warlocks are spotted in the area?
22:15Get off of me!
22:17Did you hear that?
22:18That sounded like Trinity.
22:19Who are you?
22:29Take her.
22:31Now!
22:44Don't strain yourself, little Luna.
22:47Who are you? What do you want?
22:51Leverage, Luna. We want leverage. And now that we have you, we're gonna get it.
22:57Who's talking to me? How am I supposed to fend off an attacker I can't see?
23:02Not a chance anyone's finding me here alive.
23:07Please, stop. You're hurting me.
23:18Where the hell did they take her?
23:20We're in warlock territory now. That must be Uazzar.
23:25I smell her scent faintly, but you'd be able to track her better than I could.
23:30I can't smell her.
23:44I can't smell her.
23:45I can't smell her.
23:52Your pack thinks they're the kings of these parts.
23:56Little do they know, their time is running out.
24:00Especially with a wolf-less girl like you as their all-powerful Luna.
24:05I may be wolf-less, but at least I'm not a coward who's scared to show my face!
24:10How dare you!
24:12You picked the wrong Luna to take.
24:15Luna!
