It all started out a normal day, go out, stalk the prey, kill, then eat. Of course this was the duties of an Alpha. Omega's, on the other hand, got to have fun all day. And before you say anything else no Alpha's and Omega's can't ma- no sorry ummm "repopulate". I know it's just the way things are okay, I don't make the rules. That's my dads job. Yep that's right I'm Jason, son of the pack leader and next in line (even though that privilege should go to my older twin brothers, Jack and Josh).

I was on my way to meet up with the rest of the hunting party. I was late again. Although I was always late it didn't really matter to me. I got there and my brother Josh said, "Late again." (As if he was really shocked.) "I'm starting to think you're late on purpose." I ignored him and led the hunting party to our usual valley.

As we walked on, we split up to cover more ground. I was walking by myself when I saw a huge Caribou, the biggest one I had ever seen or eaten. The antlers alone were as big as I was. I followed it up a hill,careful not to make any noise. The caribou had its head down eating the foliage. I was getting ready to pounce, crouching low to the ground, when suddenly it pulled its head up in alarm. Looking in the direction of where I was hidden before bounding off up the hill. I quickly ran after it but it only ran faster. I eventually faked giving up and followed it. I followed it all day until I thought I had it cornered at the top of another hill.

As I crouched behind some bushes. I could hear the sound of whimpers and ruthless beating. I stopped at the top of the hill, forgetting about the caribou. I looked down the other side of the hill and what I saw was so horrible, its hard to even talk about. The hunting party was down there and they were beating some poor wolf. That wolf wasn't even trying to defend itself, it just let them beat him to death. I didn't recognize the wolf meaning it must have come from another pack or worse was an outsider.

Outsiders or packless wolves are wolves that don't belong to a pack. They usually traveled from place to place with their families. The reason, well that's a little complicated. I didn't dare get up for fear of having to kill the poor thing. So instead I just sat there waiting to see if they hunting party would go away.

Finally with one last blow to the face, the hunting party left, laughing as they went. I waited till they were good and gone, then got up and ran over to the suffering wolf. As I got closer I could see that the wolf was a girl and an obvious outsider. As I began to study her wounds, I noticed her fur was the exact opposite of mine, black with a white stripe down the middle.

Her wounds weren't as bad as I thought, as long as none of her broken ribs hadn't punctured any lungs. But her breathing would suggest that they weren't. However, there was one particularly nasty gash on her left side, starting at her foreleg and moving up to her rear. I had to clean the wounds so I picked her up and carried her to a nearby stream. I carefully cleansed her wounds however, that gash wouldn't stop bleeding. I remembered hearing about a certain leaf that could help heal wounds quickly and keep the blood free from infection, but I couldn't remember the plant.

What was it!? I thought to myself. Maybe it was some sort of ivy? Yeah, ivy that must be it. I picked up the mysterious wolf and carried her to a place that only I knew about. A cave covered by thick bushes and trees. Once inside the cave I carefully set her down, then noticed that she was shivering. I better hurry. I ran out of the cave to find the ivy I needed. I looked around and found the three leaved ivy that I had been looking for. I quickly grabbed the some in my mouth and ran back to the cave.

When I got back I quickly put the leaves over the wounds. When I was done, she was still shivering, worse now than ever. I didn't have anything to cover her with so I did the only thing I could, I laid down next to her and scooted close. I could feel her cold skin beneath her fur and scooted closer. After a few moments, her body seemed to stop shivering and relax a bit. It wasn't until now that I realized how tired I was, and I could my head slowly fall and finally rest on my paws. I closed my eyes and I soon fell asleep.
