Micro Relato ~ Pannavi's Curse

How about a little bit of both?
One night of waning moon, prowling with the wolves, passable and shuddering at the same time, a druidess could be glimpsed, wandering alone, somewhat apart from the pack. She just watched the wolves that kept her company, seeing how they played with each other and smiling a little smile at the corner of her lips.

The weather brought with it a rather chilly breeze that made Pannavi shiver and put her on her toes. She heard someone approaching, that was a lost forest, where darkness encompassed every corner. No one had to be in that place but her and her wolves.

Pannavi went a little deeper as he managed to smell a different scent, it was a boy, he came armed with a shotgun, boots, and clothes that made him look like a poacher. He stopped at the edge of the lake where the moon was the protagonist of its small brightness and there was a tiny clearing that allowed him to build a fire to warm up. Pannavi just watched in the dark, afraid to approach, not so much for the danger of being hunted but for not being able to control her emotions and losing herself uncontrolled in the transformation of a beast that only knows how to cause harm to whoever approaches it at that moment.

The boy, felt that someone was watching him and glimpsed in the distance some glowing eyes that were noticed in the undergrowth, he put on guard as he thought it was an animal that could attack him, Pannavi stood up when she noticed that the boy was aiming at her, she indifferent to what could happen to him, just stood, waiting for the boy's next action.

Who are you? What are you doing here? asked the hunter, a little frightened.
My name is Pannavi, and you shouldn't be here said the strange girl.
Suddenly and without warning a panther suddenly came out to attack the boy, he fell to the ground and used his weapon to avoid being bitten by that giant feline. Suddenly another animal jumped to take the panther, that animal a little bigger than the feline had the shape of a dog, like a giant wolf. The boy turned to see where the strange girl was but he could not see her, he imagined that she had run away scared to death.

Between growls, bites, and scratches, the fight between the two beasts could be heard, the boy hoped that neither would get hurt, however, he heard a squeal of pain from the wolf followed by a high-pitched meow from the panther along with footsteps moving away in the grass.

The boy approached the giant, silver-furred wolf that was full of traces of blood, he was quite scared, but seeing the wounds he knew he had to help him, the wolf just lay still, breathing agitated as if waiting for the pain to pass. The boy returned to his camp to fetch some clothes, as well as a natural salve he had in store in case of any accidents.

On the way it took him to do this, he heard a woman's whimper, he approached again where the giant wolf was, but it was no longer there, instead there was that girl with a strange name who called herself Pannavi. When he saw her there, the boy was shocked, he did not know what was happening, but he knew he had to help her, as she had quite serious injuries.
