CHAPTER 2

Long Arrow left Rebel with mixed feelings. He was sad he had to leave, but happy he got directions. So now he could know where he was going! Two days later Long Arrow was thinking of Rebel and Iris when he heard something.

"Again!" He thought to himself.

He stopped and looked around. And then kept going then could something behind him. So he jumped around and pounced on a small wolf.

"Who are you?" Long Arrow asked the wolf,

"Aramaic, daughter of Rebel." Said the wolf.

Long Arrow jumped back in amazement.

"Why, these wolfs like to follow me!" he thought to himself,

"Did you just do that?" Aramaic said in surprise,

"Do what?" Long Arrow replied,

"Jump off of me like I had rabies! How rude but weird!" Aramaic yelled,

( They love to yell at each other as you can see!)

"How rude is following someone!" Long Arrow yelled back,

"True… But!" Aramaic was interrupted by Long Arrow.

"Are you really the daughter of Rebel?" Long Arrow asked quieting down from yelling.

"Why, yes I am. Why do you know him?" Aramaic said proudly,

"Yes I do, I went to his den two days ago." Long Arrow said,

"So are they okay?" she asked with energy,

"Yes your father is better than ever! And your mother. Why are you not there?" Long Arrow said,

"I am old enough to leave the den! I might be small but I am fast!" she said with greater pride than earlier.

"Why are you here?" She questioned him

"I am going to the shire." Long Arrow replied holding back the details.

"Really, are you serious? I am going there too!" Aramaic said acting as herself.

"Why are you going?" Long Arrow question her now.

"Because my father said that I am too small for living by the forest. So I have to go to the shire to live with small people." Aramaic said with sadness in her tone.

"Oh… I understand." Long Arrow said quietly,

"Do you really?" Aramaic said gaining back energy

"I suppose I do… No, I don't." Long Arrow replied with a little chuckle,

"I thought so!" Aramaic replied laughing,

"Would you like to come with me to the Shire?" Long Arrow questioned

"You mean you come with me. I mean I was heading here first!" Aramaic said happily!

"True!" Long Arrow replied

"I would love it! It gets so boring alone on the trail!" Aramaic said walking away,

And they were on their way. They traveled for days and days. They would stop for water at steams and hunt for deer. At a stream when they stopped to get a drink.

Then they heard something coming. Long Arrow and Aramaic leaped behind bush. They heard trotting of paws about three or four. They practically stopped breathing. Then a pup came up to the bush and saw them and howled. Then the other wolves came up.

"Get out from behind that bush!" said a wolf which acted like the leader.
