Chapter Four: A New Year A New Beginning

It was now New Years Eve, as the wolf pack sees Heather waiting by the front door, Kate sees jasmine walked towards Heather, "Where's Juan, Heather?" Heather looks at Jasmine, "He'd left a few hours ago, to go shopping for tonight, and tonight's the New Years Eve ball drop in Times Square, New York on the TV tonight." Kate looks at Heather, "What's New Years?" Before Heather could answer Kate's question, "Well, New Years Eve, is when the last day of the old year is spend with friends, as you and your friends welcome in the new year, out with the old and in with the new." Kate sees me, getting the front room ready for the New Years Eve party, Heather looks at Jasmine, Kate, and Humphrey, "We're having a New Years Eve party, were you guys, like to come to the party, and watch the ball drop?" Kate looks at her parents, "Mom, Dad, can we," That her parents smile, looking at their daughter, "So, we always wanted, to go to a New Years Eve party, and it'll be lots of fun." Heather taps Kate's leg, "TAG! You're it." Heather runs outside, as Kate sees Humphrey, Lilly, and Jasmine running from her, "RUN! She's it." Kate runs out the door, than started to chase everyone, and tags Humphrey, "Now you're it, my love." Humphrey chases Lilly and Jasmine, as Heather was running the other way; as runs into another wolf, "Hey, what's the big idea, running into me like that, and what's your problem?" "Oh, why aren't you, a little cute wolf pup." Heather looks at the new wolf, standing in front of her, "My names Heather, what's your name?" The wolf looks at Heather, "The names Shawn, I'm looking for new wolf pack family, I'd lost my parents, they're killed by poachers, and I'm looking for new home." Heather smiles, looking at Shawn, "Well, maybe you'll like to come with me, to the log house, and meet my dad." Shawn smiles, "Yes please, I hope there's, some good food, because I haven't eaten in a few days." After Kate, Jasmine, Lilly, and Humphrey stop their game of tag, "Hey, where's Heather?" They all see Heather walking, with a new wolf pup walking next to her, "Heather, who's this wolf pup?" Heather looks back at Shawn, "That's Shawn, he also lost his family to poachers." Kate walks up to Shawn, "Well, come with us little one, Ok?" Heather smiles at Shawn, as everyone walked up to the log house, as everyone enter the house, Shawn sees a human cooking food, as Heather walks up to me, "Dad, there's someone here, I'll like for you to meet." Shawn sees me looking at him, as he was looking back at Heather, "he's your dad, but he's a human." Heather looks at Shawn, with a smile on her face, "Yes, but he loves wolves, he took me in, after poachers killed my family, and now we're a family." After Heather told Shawn that, Shawn sees me walked up to him, and place a plate of food for him, "Here you go little guy, try this, and I bet you'll like it." Shawn sniffs the plate, looking at me, and he starts to eat the food, "Oh, it's so good, I haven't eaten food like this, in the last couple of days." After Shawn finish the plate, I'd pick him and the plate up, as I was smiling at him, "you like to stay here, with Heather and me." Shawn smiles, "Yes, that's a great idea, plus I loved the food you made me." Everyone went to rest for awhile, as I was making the front room nice, for the New Years Eve party, when there was a knock on the door, I walk to the front door, and open it to see, "Hey Mon, what's going on today Juan, long time no see, and how're you doing man?" I'd just laughed a little, "Kofi my man, come on in, and were you like a drink?" Kofi walks into the house, looking around the place, and sees two little wolf sleeping together on the kitchen table, "So Juan, how's Heather doing?" I looked at her little sleeping body, "She's doing better man, she found this little guy, walking by the lake, poor guy lost his family to poachers, he also hasn't even eaten in days, plus his names Shawn, I'd fed him some food, and now he's living here with Heather and me." Kofi smiles at me, "When Juan, I'd just stop by, to give you this gift for Heather, and maybe she can share it with Shawn too, ok? I'd smile at Kofi, as he walked out of the door smiling back, "Happy New Years, take care." After I walked back in the kitchen, Heather sees me holding a box, "It's that for me Juan?" I place it on the table, looking at Heather, and I smile at her, "Heather, this gift is for both you, and Shawn, Ok?" Heather sees Shawn was looking at her, "Heather, I'd just had this strange dream, now I remember you Heather and that you're my long lost sister." Heather looks at Shawn, "But Shawn, how can I be your sister?" Shawn looks at her, 'We're both young, the poachers took me away from you, after killing our parents, a long time later has pass, when I escape the poachers headquarters, where I was force to live by myself, and that's when I'd ran into you sis." Heather close her eyes, having a flash back, and sees her and Shawn playing together, "Tag, you it sis, can't get me." Heather runs after Shawn and tags him on the back, and starts to laugh at him, Now you're it, bro." Heather opens her eyes, looking at Shawn, and starts to cry, as Kate, Lilly, Jasmine, Humphrey, and the rest of their pack walked into the kitchen, "What's going on, Juan?" I look at Kate, Lilly, Humphrey, Jasmine, and the rest of their pack, "Well, Heather just found out that, Shawn's her long lost brother, and she's Shawn's long lost sister." After everyone heard the news, "I'd walked into the front room, turning on the TV, to the New Years Eve show, as the clock reads 11:55, I'd turn my head looking at everyone, "Well, you're ready for the New Years, the ball gets ready to drop, in five minutes." I'd pour a little bit of the fake grape wine into bowls, so everyone can have something to drink, at midnight "Drink it, at midnight, ok?" I'd had a cop of the wine too as I smile at my new friends, "It's fake wine, but taste so good, now come on." As the last minute of the old year hit, everyone sat in front of the TV, as we all started to watch the ball drop, than as the last ten second came on, "10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1," Than fireworks shot off at Times Square, as we all yelled together, "Happy New Years!" Kate and Humphrey kiss, as Jasmine looks at me, "Thanks Juan, for saving my life." I'd just smile at her, "Well, maybe you'll love to be friends with me, huh?" Jasmine looks at me, "I'd just smile at her, "No problem." Just than s noise came, as a paw was hitting the front door, Jasmine sees Kate open the door, than Jasmine was in tears, "Jeff, you're alive?" Jeff walks into the house, and sees her, "Yes, I was taking by the poacher, I'd escape from their camp, and I was searching for you love." As Jeff walks towards me, "I'd just heard you, saved her life, why were a human save her?" I'd smile at Jeff, "I'm a human that loves wolves. That's why?" Jeff looks at everyone, "Can Jasmine and I, both join your pack?" Jasmine sees Kate walked up, smile at her and Jeff, "Yes, you may join the pack, welcome home." After that, Jeff walks towards the little wolf pups, "So, how is it, having a human as a dad?" The two pups, smiled at Jeff, "It's great." Jeff kisses Jasmine, right on the lips, and smile at her, "Now, let's start this New Years, by spend so time, alone love." Everyone went off to bed, as I'd tucked Heather and Shawn into their little bed, "Good night Heather, good night, Shawn, and sweet dreams." The two smiled at me, "Good night dad, see you in the morning, and sweet dreams to you to." I went to bed, as the new years, was going to bring some more news.
