I have another story for you guys! I am still working on NaJH and it's taking a while cause I am doing all of it on Xbox. I'm sorry for not updating often. I got some inspiration after reading Jack Alpha's, War of the North. (If you haven't read it, go read it! It's definitely worth it!) Anyways, I hope you enjoy my new story!
Humphrey 3 Hours Ago
I look down at Kate's wedding and see her and Garth get ready to rub noses, knowing they will be mates forever. When I was younger, I wanted Kate to be mine forever, and I was so close to having her be mine, but that apparently went downhill majorly in just a few hours and I was eternally heartbroken. At that point, I promised myself to never come back and if I did, it would be to kill that fucking bastard, Garth. Why Kate didn't tell me this though made me even more pissed and hurt. I then ran away when the crowd cheered, signalling they were officially married, and I ran off with so much heart ache and anger. I ran off as fast as I could towards the tracks and I could hear a train coming.
I look behind myself, taking one last look at Jasper, but I shouldn't have cause when I did, Kate was running towards me.
"Humphrey, wait!"
"No Kate! I loved you and you did this to me! You broke my heart you bitch!"
"But-"
"Don't 'but' me Kate! I'm out of here."
I looked for an open box quickly car and I found one close to the back and jumped in, barely making it in. I saw Kate trying to follow, but the train sped up and she was out of sight. I lied down realizing I was pretty tired and I had cried myself to sleep.
Humphrey in Present
I barely got sleep and I just felt like I needed to wake up. I got up and stretched my muscles and looked out the open door. I could tell I was heading North when I saw the sun setting in the west. I decided to get out and find a den or something to temporarily stay in. I jumped out and got a terrible footing on the ground, ending up rolling down a tall hill.
Unknown
I was sitting down, halfway up a large hill, just enjoying the beautiful view. The wind had blown and I closed my eyes, enjoying the cool breeze flow through my fur. I sniffed the air and I came across a smell I didn't notice before. I thought I heard something come down the hill behind me. I look back only to be hit by a wolf and got sent down the hill with him.
Humphrey
I hit something large while rolling down. When I reached the bottom, I was immediately pinned by a large, white wolf with brown eyes. He got up in my face and it intimidated the hell out of me!
"What do you think you're doing?! Trying to kill me?!" He then immediately put his jaws up to my neck. I knew if I said anything wrong, I'd be screwed.
"I-I didn't mean to do that at all! I swear! I jumped off that train and I got a bad footing. Please don't kill me!" I could tell he was thinking about letting go of me. He got off of me and sat in font of me.
"Alright, I won't. Sorry about that, you can never be too sure if someone's out to get you. Oh, where are my manners, I'm Easton!" While he was talking, I looked around his body, noticing a few deep scars here and there, two in particular going right across his right eye. He was also very large and super well built, he was even bigger and stronger than Garth by quite a bit. What got my attention though were his brown eyes that looked like the color of chocolate. I felt like I was pulled into a trance just starring at him, until I was hit back into reality when he waved his paw in front of my face.
"Hello?" he said, putting his paw back down.
"Oh, I'm really sorry." I said back, looking away completely embarrassed.
"So what's your name?"
"I'm Humphrey."
"Where are you from?" I started to remember what happened in Jasper a few hours ago and I started to tear up. He must've saw a few tears escape me.
"Oh, I'm so sorry to bring up your past." He then pulled me into a hug and I just let all my sadness pour onto his chest.
"Shh, it's alright Humphrey. It's okay." I could hear sympathy and caring come into his voice and it honestly made me feel better. I stopped crying after a few minutes and I regained my composure, the whole time Easton was comforting me.
"We should get to my den. It's a little dark out." I nodded and followed him at his side.
I looked around, taking in all the beauty of the northern area. It was probably 20 miles away from Jasper's Northern Pack, for I could see the pack's tall mountain range barely in sight, south of where we were headed. We had been walking for about an hour and a half and my paws were absolutely killing me!
"Are we almost at your den?" I was hoping in my head that it was around the corner because we were going up a tall hill and we couldn't possibly go any higher.
"We're here!" he said, going around the corner. I was relieved! Why did he even go all the way back to where the train was if he lived this far away? He motioned to me to come in. I went towards him, went around the corner and saw a medium sized den that could fit about 5 wolves his size.
"Nice den you have." It was nicely built and it had an amazing view of a few hills and the sunset.
"Thank you! Are you hungry?" Right when he said that, my stomach growled loudly and he laughed.
"I'll take that as a yes?" I nodded and he went to the very back of the den where a a large, dead caribou was and tore off one of the legs like it was nothing and gave it to me.
"Thank you!" I ate all of it in just a few minutes and was completely full. I then went over to Easton and laid down by him. We laid down in silence when I decided to talk to him.
"So.. uh.. Easton, anything about yourself you wanna share with me?"
"Like what?"
"Um.. I guess where you came from?"
"I honestly don't know. I used to be in the Eastern Yukon Pack, but they said I wasn't born from there and that the leader found me at the border one morning. So I also don't know who my real parents are." When he finished, he had a sad face and was looking out at the sunset. I felt bad for him and wanted to make him feel better. I got closer and tightly hugged him. He then looked at me, smiled and hugged back.
"Well, it's getting late. You should probably get some sleep." he told me.
"Yea. I'm pooped. Good night!" I said.
"Good night!" he said back. I laid my head down on my paws and let sleep take me over.
So how do you like it? I hope you enjoyed it and I would love you if you reviewed it! Criticism, helpful hints on writing, whatever you want to say, put it in a review! It always makes my day! Since I made a gay story before, do you think I should make this one gay too or naw? Well, I'll see you all later!
