Aleu made her way South to Nome where she would warn her family of the upcoming events, "*pant pant* Man, I'm not getting anywhere! It'll take them at least a week to get to Nome and I have to stay ahead of time otherwise I won't get there in time!" Aleu said to herself, "How did I get into all this mess, first I leave papa behind and now I'm fighting a group of wolves from our rival clan, didn't think this day would come, but looks like it has." Aleu thought to herself. As she made her way further into the Alaskan forest, she noticed a familiar smell coming from a cave, a smell from a very long time ago, "I know that smell, *sniff sniff* It smells amazing!" Aleu thought to herself, and followed the smell into the cave, but before she knew it, the ground beneath her broke and she fell deeper into the cave, "Ugh, I hate caves!" Aleu said, frustrated, she continued into the cave, "*crack* Oh no, not again!" Aleu jumped ahead and two trap doors opened, revealing a hole deep enough to kill anything that falls into it, "Whew, that was close." Aleu thought, proceeding into the cave with Caution. Aleu heard singing in the distance, "praise for father son, and sister moon…heya heya heyaaaa….." Aleu approached the singing mouse, "Muru?" Aleu asked out loud, "Why, hello Aleu, I didn't expect a visitor at this hour of the day, tell me, what brings you here?" Muru asked, "well, to be honest I didn't expect to find myself down here, I smelled an irresistible smell that I couldn't help but follow." Aleu said, "Ahh I see, well then, you were brought here for a very special reason, you need help." Muru said, "Help? But with what?" Aleu asked, confused. "Well, let us ask your inner spirit." Muru said, moving his crystals in a specific way, and soon they lit up and revealed a wall with carvings into the wall, "Let us see what your future has for you." Muru said observing the carvings in the wall, "Wow, I've never seen anything as beautiful as this." Aleu said in amazement, "I see, Aleu, you see this wolf right here and how it goes to a small town?" Muru asked, "Yes, but what does that have to do with me?" Aleu asked, "Well, I am to believe that the wolf is you, and the small town is your destination, however, it doesn't stop there, the small town now has wolves surrounding it, and the group of wolves is approaching another smaller group, and I am to believe that that is your family, and the wolves are your enemies." Muru said, "So, looks like they're going to get there before me after all." Aleu said, "Precisely, but, if you have one more person to the group, you may make it through the ambush, and live happily as a family." Muru said, "But who's the other person going to be?" Aleu asked, "Why, it's so obvious, that other person is the one who you choose to be with." Muru said, "Choose to be with? What's that supposed to mean?" Aleu asked, "Your mate of sorts, the person who you are destined to be with." Muru said, "But, I'm not ready for that kind of thing? How could it happen to me so soon, I'm only 2 and a half years old?" Aleu asked, "That is up to fate to decide, now go save your family." Muru said, fading away. "Muru? Where'd he go, he always disappears like that." Aleu thought to herself, "*sigh* May as well get out of here and back to walking, I just hope Saba's doing alright on her own." Aleu said

"*sigh* I hope Aleu hurries, I can't stand this cramped cell anymore." Saba said, "You know, I was in that cell before you." Joel said, "Oh, you again." Saba sighed in relief, "Well, I am your assigned guard so it's kinda my job." Joel said, "Well since the leader is out we can talk for awhile I suppose, I just need someone to talk to." Saba said, "Well, so I am getting kinda bored, so let's talk!" Joel said, "So, how'd you end up as a guard for this crap shoot?" Saba asked, "Well, my parents were killed recently, and I was brought in as a prisoner just like you, but I agreed to work for Skye so he gave me this assignment which, you're actually my first prisoner to look after, and since I can relate to you so much, I guess I kinda found a friend in you." Joel said, "Really? I would have thought that you guys would have taken in others by now, I guess you've lived happy until recently." Saba said, "Well, not really, I'm not allowed to leave unsupervised since they don't want me talking, so I've been stuck in this hell for 2 months now." Joel said, "I'm so sorry Joel, it's sick how Skye or whoever he is treats his subordinates!" Saba said, "Well, I can't really do anything about it, that is if I want to live." Joel said, "What do you mean?" Saba asked. "I mean Skye will kill me if I defy him or try to escape, all of the Omegas are expendable and he treats us as such." Joel said, "That sick bastard! What's gotten into that tiny brain of his?" Saba asked enraged, "I'm not sure, but I would sure love another leader to follow." Joel said, "I have an idea for you, maybe once all this crap is done and over with, you can work for my sister Aleu, she's Alpha Female of the Talkeetna Clan, but they treat their subordinates well and they all work as a team, everyone is treated equally except for the Alpha Female and Alpha Male which are simply the bosses." Saba said, "She'd be willing to take a rival Omega in?" Joel asked, "As long as she's given respect and you seem trustworthy then she'd be glad to take you in, because once this is over, there won't be a leader!" Saba said, "You have that much faith in your sister? That she and your family can defeat my pack?" Joel asked, "Well she is my sis, she's the most stubborn wolf on this planet so she won't give up until she gets what she wants or thinks is right." Saba said. "She sounds like an awesome leader, I'd be glad to join her pack!" Joel said, "Alright, just tell her that when we get to Nome, but first you've got to get me out of here!" Saba said, "Sorry, Skye took the keys so I can't do anything about it, I'll get you out somehow though, I promise." Joel said, "I sure hope so." Saba said, going back to sleep.
