How it Ends: The Weight.
I guess I should start by saying that, even though I abandoned this site and these stories well over a year ago, they still weigh heavily on my mind. They were, after all, my babies- in particular The Weight and the In the Negative-Meanwhile series. I know that there are people who have made valiant efforts to bring these stories back to life and bring them to a close, but since it has been several months since any sort of activity has been seen, I'm just gonna assume that they have given up on them as well. However, I still feel as though these stories deserve an ending, and you- the loyal readers, deserve to know how they end. So that's what this little story will be dedicated to. Thanks everybody for sticking by me. I'm sorry it has be be done this way, because I had so many more emotional rollercoasters for you guys, but at least you'll know once and for all, how this all ends. Here's how The Weight ends
How it Ends: The Weight
In the latest chapter that Protege released, Jericho died, leaving Humphrey alone to fend entirely for himself. He does so by digging up all of the bones that Jeriko had buried around the den area and surviving off of the marrow inside. Regardless, he becomes severely malnourished, but by this time, his leg is practically healed. With his leg better, he makes several attempts to hunt, but since he has no idea how to hunt and is severely weakened by his lack of nourishment, he must make the dangerous journey into the town for food. He makes it into town a few times without any incident, as he enters late at night under cover of darkness. However, on his fourth venture into town, he hears a cry for help. He moves down an alley way and finds a female German shepherd named Sam pinned up underneath a stack of rubbish that had fallen on top of her whenever she was trying to find food. It is obvious to him that she had been trapped under there for a few days, as her movements are very stiff and she is covered in her own feces. Humphrey tries to help her, but since he is a wolf, she assumes the worst about him and pitches a fit. However, after Humphrey is able to calm her down and talk to her, she agrees to let him help her. However, in her state of severe dehydration, hunger, and her broken leg, she is in no condition to fend for herself. Eventually he convinces her to come with him out into the woods so he can take care of her and he nurses her back to health. His motivation, aside from the fact that he has a good heart, is that he still feels terrible about how he could not help Jeriko. So no matter what, he will help Sam. In the beginning the plan was for Humphrey to take care of her until she was well enough to go back to town, since it would be too dangerous for him to make the trip. However, the two of them eventually develop feelings for each other, they fall in love, have a whole den full of pups and they live happily ever after- a great ending for somebody who had to lose and suffer through so much. Eve and the others find a new home out in the prairie, but Eve never remarries. Lily and Colin travel together for about a month and a half, and in that time together, they develop feelings. One day they find a beautiful patch of unclaimed territory and there they decide to abandon the plan to go to Alaska and settle down together. They have pups and live out the rest of their days happily
