Like promised here is another chapter. I will make this longer than usual. After this I probably will be done for the day. Enjoy!
Chris POV
Me and Aniu have been walking for a while she seems a little lost but I don't want to rude and mention it.
"Hey Aniu it is getting dark we should find a place to spend the night."
"Good idea. Hey look right up their is a small cave lets check it out."
I have taken a liking to this wolf. She is nice and caring. I just want her to think the same of me.
"Sounds like a good idea."
We ran over to the cave and smelled the inside and the outside around it. We couldn't pick up a scent so it seemed safe. The cave was small though. We ended touching each other which I didn't mind.
"Hey Chris I just want to thank you again for everything."
"No problem. Seriously you are the one doing me the favor."
"How is that?"
"Well you are proving my point of being not what is described of wolves in stories. Plus you are leading me to my new home."
"Chris it's the least I could do. I just hope you don't get hurt. Plus you have taught me it is what is on the inside that counts, not just what you are stereotyped as."
"Well I am kind of tired not to be rude or anything I think it would be best if we hit the sack. We have a long day tomorrow."
"I agree good night Chris."
"Good night Aniu."
Aniu POV
I am starting to like this guy. He is smart and determined. I hope I can learn more about him tomorrow.
"Aniu wake up it is time to get going."
"Okay okay I'm up."
"Good lets get going."
"I am kind of hungry though can you hunt?"
"No I was hoping you could. I never have had the chance to hunt."
"That makes two of us. I guess we could try how could it be to catch a rabbit?"
"Not to hard I guess. Just if we don't catch a thing in half an hour then we continue home."
"What is the rush?"
"Well I know the sooner we are back the better that's all."
"Fine. Common lets start."
There were a lot of rabbits around. We decided to stay together because we don't want to lose each other. Chris was very slow but impossible to hear. I on the other hand made a lot of noise and went fast. He seemed to be frustrated when I thought I could catch one and would scare it away. He told me to match him so I did. When I did this he managed to catch one and I got one also. Once we both ate our rabbits we were on our way again.
Chris POV
Hunting was a little frustrating but it ended well. Once we started going we started to talk.
"So Chris were are your parents?"
"Well as far as I know they moved to Canada. They did so when I was about six weeks I think."
"Oh that's interesting. Got any siblings?"
"Ya a brother named Josh. He doesn't like wolves so don't ask to see him."
"Oh. Well my pack doesn't like dogs and you want to see them. So how is that a good excuse."
"Because my brother is arrogant and as far as you have told me you pack isn't. Besides you wouldn't want to see my brother. He isn't special in anyway."
"Well I was interested so I asked."
"Understandable. What family do you have left? I know you lost your parents, but there has to be some one left."
"Well I have a older brother name Aron, and an uncle named Atka. That about it."
"More than I have. How close are we?"
"This all looks familiar and smells like my packs territory. So anywhere from now to ten minutes."
Just after she said that a wolf jumped down from a rock.
"Aniu it has been to long we thought you were dead."
"Uncle I missed you. It is a long story."
"And what is this thing here?"
"My name is Chris."
"I didn't ask for your name if I were you I would start running now."
"Well you are not me and I would like to be on good terms with wolves."
"Is that a joke? Do you realize what your kind did to us?"
"Uncle he didn't have anything to do with it I promise. He saved me please give him a chance to stay."
"You think a dog could stay with us? Yeah right. He needs to leave and you need to come."
"No I am staying with him. He either comes with us or I go with him."
"Fine, but if hurts any wolves he will wish he were dead."
"Thank you for giving him a chance."
Aniu's uncle didn't reply. Which is a bad thing meaning that he doesn't like me. I was getting a lot of looks and growls from the wolves. Once we got to what Aniu claimed to be her cave. Her uncle who is now pack alpha called for a meeting with the pack.
"I called for a meeting to talk about some new things. First off Aniu is back. Second off she brought a dog who helped her get back here. Now this dog will give us three good reasons why he should stay."
Once that was said every one was looking at me. So I cleared my throat and began to speak.
"Hello everyone my name is Chris. I should stay for these following three reasons. One I saved your fellow pack member Aniu. Two I will fallow all your rules and be a responsible member of the pack. Three I am able to provide knowledge of humans and dogs, and will be able to make peace between wolves and dogs. Those are my three reasons."
After I finished my speech I looked around and couldn't tell if I was good to Stay, or should start running. Then Atka come up next to me and cleared his throat.
"Those reasons were good except for the last part of the third one. We are at war with the dogs now after they attacked us. They will be sorry the listen to the humans. And since you didn't give three good reasons Chris you must leave and not return."
"No, wait don't go to war please trust me war is not what you want. Once you start war with the dogs humans will come and protect their dogs. This would be a war that will end in bloodshed for everyone especially wolves."
"How dare you try to make decisions for us and on top of that, tell us we will lose."
"Look I am being honest and don't want to think back and think it was my fault my ancestors were killed."
"Enough you live now or you die hard."
"Uncle stop all he wants to do is help."
"Nonsense he wishes death upon us."
"That is not true I am trying to keep you from your deaths please hear me out."
Aniu POV
Suddenly my uncle jumped at Chris and a circle was formed, and I was held back. Chris was knocked down and had a gash on his cheek.
"I gave you a choice Chris. This was your decision."
"I will not fight you. I only want peace."
Chris was then knocked down again by my uncle with a gash on his chin. Chris struggled to get back up. I felt tears in my eyes.
"I am sorry things had to be like this Chris, but you should watch what you say next time."
"You are not sorry. No one has ever been sorry for me. But I am sorry for people, especially ones like you who can't make the right decision."
My uncle charged at Chris and rammed him in the side. Chris didn't get up. I broke free and stood over Chris.
"This has gone to far. It ends now."
"You are right young one, so now let me kill him."
"No you have no right to kill him. Killing him makes you worse then the dogs who killed are pack members. He is still a pup so you aren't allowed to kill him because he hasn't hurt anyone. Which is one of the rules."
"Fine but he has to leave which is one of the rules."
"Fine then I am going with him."
"No you will stay and he will go."
"He can't live on his own. So I will live with him."
"Well then you are not welcome on our ground and must leave now."
I started to drag Chris with me. Then I was helped by my brother. Once I was out of their territory. I looked back and thought what now?
Well longest chapter yet. Their probably won't be many mor chapters for this section, which is called Before Balto. I will make sure to say the name of the next section in the last chapter. Please leave a review or comment. Thanks!
