Chapter 1 : Humiliation
A/N: Just an idea I had, and I'd like to know if you guys would like me to continue. Also, this isn't supposed to be realistic so I don't want any reviews or messages saying, 'how did this happen,' or 'wolves can't do that.' I wasn't truely going for realism
After everything Humphrey had been through, he didn't go to their level. He kept calm, and sometimes he was on the edge of breaking. After losing his parents from caribou stampedes, losing his friends because he 'wasn't fun anymore', and he lost the love of his life to Garth, his enemy. There was absolutely no way Humphrey could get the tough, and mean alpha to feel sorry for everything Humphrey was put through. It was useless to try for Humphrey.
With no feeling but anger, Humphrey needed revenge. Everyone, literally... everyone from the Western and Eastern packs, had bullied him at some point in his life. Pup, adolescent, adult... it would keep going until he did something about it. Humphrey never did end up getting his solution to this life long problom. Humphrey just stayed calm, looking down at the ground, with no expression.
It wasn't until The Great Wolf Games began. Salty invited Humphrey to watch the games with Shakey and Mooch. "Oh hey, Humphrey." Mooch said as happily as he could. "Hey." Humphrey replied in a monotone voice. Mooch's smile disappeared and he immeadiatley re focused on The Great Wolf Games again. The 200 meter dash was just about to be wrapped up with Garth winning first. Garth was crowded bpeople praising him and liking him for who he is. Which is being strongest to the guys, and the most handsome to the girls.
Garth finally ot his attention off the crowd and fixed his eyes on Humphrey sitting a few feet away, looking down at the ground like he always does. "Well, look who decided to come see me win." Garth said pushing his way through the crowd towards Humphrey. Shakey, Mooch and Salty backed away knowing that Garth was targeting Humphrey. "Not like you could stand a chance against any Alpha, I should just make you a servant or something." Garth said. Even though it wasn't as really good insult or just any good an saying, Humphrey finally couldn't take it anymore. He definetly wasn't going to let Garth walk all over him this time.
"Yeah right. I should teach you a lesson." Humphrey replied. Garth was surprised to see Humphrey finally defend himself a little. "Alright then try me." Garth challenged. Humphrey stood there with no expression without any movement. "Well since you want to teach me a lesson that isn't going to happen, I'm instead going to teach you one." Garth replied. The crowd mostly filled with followers of Garth's cheered Garth on, laughing. The others like Kate, Salty, Shakey, Mooch, Winston, Eve and a few others did absolutely nothing to help Humphrey escape the 'wrath' of Garth.
Although nobody has seen Humphrey's wrath. Garth swung his paw with his claws about to cut Humphrey's eye... but Garth was too slow. Humphrey caught Garth's paw with the grip of a... well let's say a stone statues hand wrapped around Garths wrist. Garth couldn't escape to save his life. "Uh, could you let go of my paw?" Garth nervously implied. Humphrey looked up in anger. "And what if I don't?" Humphrey asked. The valley was silent utterly shocked by what happened. "About that lesson I said I was going to teach you." Humphrey's whole body was suddenly emitting black smoke and soon Humphrey was hovering a few inches off the ground. Humphrey let out a scream like a banshees, as high pitched and as ear deafening.
All the wolves were backing away from Humphrey and now scared of the new Humphrey. "So since you get to humiliate me in front of every wolf in Jasper... well almost all of them, I think I'll do the same to you." Humphrey said with an echoing deep voice. "But see I'm not violent like you, so maybe if I make you everyone else here who has humiliated me, face your biggest and darkest fear, I'll be better." Humphrey chuckled creepily. Humphrey let Garth go and surrounded him in black smoke. "Let's see what's your biggest fear... oh of course..." Humphrey asked. "Phasmophobia, the fear of ghosts." Humphrey said.
So again is just an idea I had and I don't know if you guys would like more, but if you do, it might only be 2-4 more chapters. Also I know that this is short but I will definetly make future chapters longer. Anyways hope you enjoyed and thanks for reading.
