Love Conquers

Chapter One

New Hope, New Danger

The full moon illuminated Jasper like an iridescent light bulb, lightly grazing everything with a light white glow. The howls of the eastern and western packs could be faintly heard through the moist evergreen trees. Humphrey, on the other hand, glumly staggered towards the train. Small whimpers escaping his muzzle with each step he took away from the love of his life. His entire body ached. His head throbbed, like he had just been slapped on the forehead with a stapler. While he was walking, he couldn't help but wonder. Why? Why couldn't she just have loved him back? Why was that stupid law ever created. Why wasn't he aloud to love who he wanted? All these thoughts made his head hurt twice as bad. Humphrey lost track of time. When he reached the train tracks, he couldn't hear it coming so, he decided to lay down in a clearing, and wait for the train to come by again. He lowered his head slowly, not feeling the least bit better about this situation. He decided to sleep it off, hoping his mood would lighten up as he slept. (I doubt it)

*ELSEWHERE*

The water was so cold. It had to be close to freezing, which usually happened on a full moon, but Kate still didn't enjoy it. She sat in the shallow end, the water barely covering her paws. Kate glanced down and the crystal clear water, seeing a reflection of herself. Her life was a mess at the moment. The packs were split up, and the only way they will come together is through the marriage of Kate and Garth. The first time Kate met Garth, she was in shock. He was so perfect in every way, until she got to know him. Her feeling basically disappeared for him. Although it was for the well being of the packs survival, she didn't know if she could go through with this. Her heart was so conflicted. She wanted to help the pack, but she also wanted to marry the one she truly loved. If only that stupid law wasn't in play. She would give anything just to tell Humphrey how she really felt. Her head sank low, her gaze slowly falling to the shimmering water again. She looked at her own reflection again, her emotions getting the better of her. A tear fell from her cheek, into the water, causing the lake to ripple. As the water started to clear, Kate noticed a fuzzy grey figure in the reflection next to her. She almost screamed when she saw Humphreys reflection standing next to her. He had on his signature dopey smile that always made her melt. She looked up and started liking rapidly, hoping one of her "rapid fire tongue attacks" would soon find its mark. When she opened her eyes, no one was there, and she was, yet again, all alone. She looked back down at the water, hoping his ghost was still haunting the reflection, but to her dismay, he was gone.

"I knew it was to good to be true." She whimpered and slowly fell to the ground, audible sobs escaping her heart.

While Kate was mourning, she hadn't noticed that she was being watched. She heard a rustle in the bushes to her left. She jumped up and got into her defensive stance.

"Who is it." She yelled, but with no response. She then heard a faint growl coming from the bushes directly behind her.

"Hello? Who's out there? I warn you. I'm not afraid to defend myself!"

Right after she said that, a grey wolf walked slowly towards her from the bush.

"Oh dad. You scared me." She laughed playfully as he approached her.

"Dad. Hey, are you okay? You look a little weird." She started to walk towards him, wondering if he was feeling ok.

Before Kate was within 3 yards of him, he let put a low, powerful growl, which nearly made Kate cry when she heard it. His head lifted up to meet her gaze. His mouth was foaming. Piercing red eyes stared into Kate soul.

"D-D-Dad?" she started to back up into the water, scared that he might hurt her, or even worse. She might have to hurt him. She had just started to walk into the water, when two other wolves appeared right behind him. She had never seen either of these wolves. One was darker than coal, with glowing yellow eyes. The other was white as snow, whit a large scar covering it's left eye, but the other shined bright green.

Kate mind raced. She was trying to find the best and fastest solution. The black wolf looked a bit smaller than the white one, but they were both still easily twice her size. As she got deeper into the water, she began to run out of options

"What do you want from me?" she yelled at the lead wolf.

"Humphrey!" The wolf bellowed. His voice sound like thunder, shaking the earth as he spoke. Kate heart stopped when she heard him. Not only the way he sounded, but what he said.

"You leave Humphrey alone! Or so help me I will rip each and every one of you in to a million pieces!" She growled viciously, standing her ground as the wolves approached her.

"It seems she has a fancy for him. She would be better off alive." The black wolf said. His voice was silent and dreadful. Like a serpent.

The lead wolf nodded slightly, and the two other wolves charged Kate.

"HUMPHR-" the white wolf cut her off. He bulldozed her back legs. She fell into the water, the sound of snapping bones echoed through the crystal liquid. The black wolf held her head under water. She was kicking as hard as she could. She tried her best to escape, but she was no much for the two wolves that held her down. Kate felt her mind slowly begin to slip. Every second making it harder for her to stay concious. Just before she gave up, she could only think about one thing.

Humphrey.

*ELSEWHERE*

Humphrey was sound asleep by the train tracks. His dream was filled with laughter, and love. He was back at his own den. Sitting on the roost that hung slightly out of his den. To his left was Kate. Her fur shined brighter than all the stars in the sky. Her smile shined even brighter.

"Did you have a good sleep my dear?" Kate asked him with a glowing smile.

"Anything is good enough. As long as I'm with you." Humphrey locked Kate muzzle, causing her to giggle slightly. She nuzzled his neck. The feeling was indescribable. Humphrey was in pure bliss. His heart was beating faster than it ever has. He couldn't be happier, that is, until a small yellow ball of fury came running straight for him. She plowed into his chest, causing him to fall backwards. Her laughter was more beautiful than the song of a angel.

"DADDY! Can we learn how to log sled today? Can we? Can we? PLEEEEEEAAASE!" Her sparkling eyes turned Humphrey into jelly.

"Anything for you, sweetheart." Humphrey smiled brightly as she bounced around in joy. Kate laughed aswell, and hugged Humphrey, and gave him a sweet kiss on the cheek.

"Where would I be without you Humphrey"

Humphrey has a huge smile on his face. His leg happily thumped the ground as he slept. A pool of drool accumulated next to his face. All was well. Until, a strange wind blew through the trees, carrying trouble along with it. Humphrey woke up emediatly, sad to be back in reality. He sighed loudly.

"Why doesn't the train just get here already." Humphrey scoffed, and laid his head back down. Just then, a cold breeze blew on Humphrey's face, causing his hair to stand on end. He sniffed the breeze loudly, and was surprised when he caught the scent of Kate. He sat up, puzzled by the circumstances. He sat still for a moment, waiting for something to happen.

"HUMPHR-" He heard Kate yell, before she was cut off.

"Kate? KATE? Don't worry I'm coming!" Humphrey shot up onto his feet, and darted into the woods, following her scent. If Kate was in trouble, he was going to save her. No matter what it takes.
