Ohkay...so... I'm seeing that this is going by well. So I'll just have to continue the story. Its got a good pace, so why stop the train. Pun possibly intended... Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters in Alpha and Omega. Except for the O/C's.
Humphrey the Lone Wolf
:Relocation:
Humphrey had just arrived in the train box car safely. He still hurt form the scrape he sustained earlier, but he would manage.
A smile plastered on his muzzle in victory knowing he was at-least successful in getting here. "Well looks like we made it Ka-" he stopped forgetting she wasn't there anymore.
He bent his head down in remorse. The train rattled and shook as it carried its cargo and one stow away aboard.
He honestly wanted to stay with her, but it would have been too much for him. He couldn't stand up to Garth anyways.
"I..." he started to cry his world was crashing down on him. "I-i'm just a-an..." he started to shake "an omega".
He was frozen in silence. Their whole journey started with them leaving. Their bond grew and they learned from each other. Then it ended with him bringing her back.
Kate was the best thing that happened to mim. She was one wolf that he in his heart he knew felt the same way. But it was never meant for them to be.
The slow shaking of the train was becoming like a soft melody to him. Slow, even, steady, full of memories. It echoed in his silence letting him know he was alone.
A moment later he felt a slight stinging on the back of his paw followed by a cooling sensation.
"Huh, what is that". He sat in the silence and moved his paw closer for an inspection. Thankful for the light still outside he saw a damp spot on his fur. It was around one of the areas he had scrapped himself earlier.
"Still hurts a little" he placed his paw down and once again felt the sting once more. "Okay, not good" he panicked and looked down at the wound.
A stray tear fell to his paw causing him to wince in pain. Taking his free paw he moved it across his muzzle. Almost instantly he could feel the fur across his arm matt. When he was done a deep grey streak ran down to his elbow.
The train passed over a few bumps when he looked down at the mark. "Heh" he scoffed, trying to fake a smile "I guess there's no use crying anymore".
The sound of the train whistle drew his attention. "I gotta get over this somehow"
trying to sound convincing Humphrey took a moment to look out of the box car he so sneakily landed in.
"Oh wow" he said, looking at the orange setting sun nearly faded in the distance. From what he could tell he was somewhere near the edge of the pack borders. Jasper 's mountain range from what he had remembered never looked this great except for when he was with her.
Just the thought of Kate made him start to tear up. Quickly he tore his eyes away from the sight and looked around. He still hadn't thought of anything other than Kate as of yet, and he knew not knowing your surroundings was a huge mistake for a lone wolf.
"Lone wolf" he muttered. Still not used to the feeling he shook his head and peered around.
He had to lighten his own mood "Lets see what we got here". Several wooden boxes and a few sturdy looking wood slabs sat mere feet behind him. Directly ahead of him it looked like various tools of some kind. "Ah must be the um... some kind of building material or something"
Humphrey walked closer to one of the crates it labeled "insulation". Curious he himself to see what was inside. What he found made him smile a bit. Small pink rolls of some padded material filled the crate.
He lifted his paw to touch it. It was dense, pliable, and looked like the best place in this box to sleep.
"Looks good enough" he turned to see the door of the train car open and he got one final glimpse of the park. "I guess this is goodbye" suddenly the mountain range started to become obscured by dense forrest trees.
He sighed, never thinking that his last glimpse of home would be so dreary. "I guess its better this way". Looking up the faint orange glow of the sun had all but vanished and pale moonlight started to peak over the other side of the box.
He shrugged his shoulders "I guess nows a good of a time as any to get some sleep". He yawned finally realizing how tired he was. A chilling breeze hit him, making him shiver slightly. "Good thing there's a nice bed here" he smiled looking back towards the empty crate.
The moment he reached the crate he jumped in landing smoothly. Thankful he had tested the material earlier it proved better than what he originally thought. Circling around and pressing the soft padding down he lowered himself and yawned.
Humphrey yawned and caught one last glance out into the wilderness. The train was soon to cross a bridge, and for him that was a renewed hope. "Tomorrow-" the constant click of the train tracks and rocking rocking motion were quickly lulling him to sleep "will be a brighter start".
The train continued to move at that steady even pace. clicking on the tracks as it went. Its destination unknown to one sleeping wolf. Yet there was always the hope of tomorrow over the horizon.
