With their oldest children away at uni and their youngest soon to follow, Toby and Stella decided that it was time for Stella to join Toby and become a werewolf. It was something that she had wanted since Toby had first been bitten by Meanalous.

They knew that Talia would reject the idea of her mother becoming a werewolf. She had always hated the fact that her father was one, and the two had never had much of a close relationship.

In an attempt to soften the blow, Toby sat Talia down to dinner hoping to talk to her about it. Talia was quiet at dinner...in complete shock that her mother would want to do such a thing.

After having some time to think Talia decided to ask that her parents wait for her to leave for uni, but it was too late.

Stella was a werewolf. But their was a side effect that the couple couldn't have forseen...Stella's alien DNA reacted diffrently than her husbands and turned her into a rather fierce werewolf.

At home Stella was just as wild and it put a huge strain on her relationship with Talia.

Since Talia had never been close to her father and feeling like she no longer had her mother sent her into a downward spiral.

Feeling completely alone in her own home made Talia want to run...one night she did.

Though it was short lived, Toby immediately contacted the police and his daughter was found the next evening.

Feeling confused and defeated, Stella couldn't help but worry for the fate of her family...had she made a mistake becoming a werewolf? How had she not seen that it would drive her daughter away and threaten to tear her family apart...but could she cure herself...and how?

Scarlet was busy trying to reach her LTW of earning 100,000 simoleans. She decided that the best way to make money was to write novels and sell paintings. Though she had worked all her life in the sports track, she was rather creative and could make good money that way.
