Ursula Chadwick had a bad day started. Victor "Bear" Warsawski was there too. It got worse when two goons tried to rob the saloon where she worked on Halloween. Shots were fired. The customers shot back. Bear tried to save her life when she froze standing in the crossfire. Ursula's and Bear's lives merged as the goons went to their eternal jobs shoveling coal into Hell's furnaces. That was just a small bump in the road. A much bigger bump loomed head. Their task was to protect state forest and private farms from a develop partnered with a drug dealer. To do so, they needed to use powers as yet unrecognized and untested, they would learn those on the job. That wasn't her only burden. She was bothered by her subconscious biological clock and the strengthening palpable need to have children as replacements for her and her spouse. It would have driven her to madness to answer whether they would, could they meet the challenges. She was saved by an experienced witch to teach them at the beginning.
