AwesomeA: Thanks :)
Congradulations to KaylaDestroyer who figured out (albeit, with a little help) that the chapter titles' first letters spell out the story title! D-O-Y-O-U-R-E- but that's all I've got for now, but there will be M-E-M-B-E-R coming soon! If that description is too confusing, just PM me and I can give a better one.
So, uh, I changed the title a lil bit. And sorry it's a short chapter. Deal with it! :)
Enjoi!
DISCLAIMER: I only own the plot.

Diego's PoV:
After Eddie and Ellie changed my bandages, we were off. Manny and Ellie lead the way, Sid and Peaches were walking in the middle, Crash was with Ellie, and Eddie decided to ride with me. I didn't mind, though. We didn't say anything, but that was okay. The silence wasn't awkward; it was comfortable.
I had another dream last night. After the meeting, everyone just lazed around until it was dark. Once it was, we went to sleep, and I was once again lost in my dreams.
I thought it couldn't get worse, but it did. I don't even know how I can walk around as if nothing happened; I guess that's just who I am (and was). That was the worst thing to ever happen to me.
It was different. The cubs were a little more grown up; it looked as though a few years had past. Young Diego and Soto were leading the others through a snow storm. Nothing really happened until they came across a cave.
They all looked to silently agree that they would stay there. They all huddled in the cave.
"W-We need to f-figure out a p-place to go," Bear said as she snuggled up to Young Diego.
"She's right," Nick said. "W-We can't just keep w-wandering around."
"We go South," Soto announced. "It's warmer, and prey is easier to find."
"But how do we get there through this snow?" Lenny asked.
"We can go through this cave," Oscar said. "Smell it. Deep down in there, I can smell grass. There's got to be an opening."
Soto pat him on the back. "Nice job, Oscar. I always liked your sense of smell."
They all got up and walked further into the cave, Soto and Oscar leading. Young Diego was with Sam while Zeke, Bear, and Nick were in their own little group.
"So, you like my brother?" Young Diego asked.
"Yeah. You like my sister?" Sam asked teasingly.
He smiled. "Yeah."
"Well, how bout we make a bet? I ask Oscar if he likes me, and you ask Bear if she likes you. I'm feeling kind of bold right now." She grinned.
"Easy, Scarlet," he smirked. "Not so fast. How bout we do that once we get South? I'm hungry and I don't feel like putting my heart on the line until my stomach is content."
"Fine with me."
They continued to walk in silence. The rest was uneventful until they got outside of the cave.
The blizzard mysteriously disappeared. Everything was green and full of life. It was perfect.
Well, I thought it was at first glance.
Oscar suddenly froze.
"You okay, buddy?" Nick asked.
"Humans," he whispered.
"Which way?" Young Diego asked.
He pointed to the left. "That way."
"Everyone stay together," Soto boomed. "Let's get out of here."
Young Diego, Soto, Lenny, Oscar, and Zeke were in a group at the front and Sam, Bear, and Nick stayed behind them.
They barely left the cave entrance before they were ambushed.
I turned around, along with Young Diego, and saw these humans there with spears pointed at them, us. With no warning at all, they pounced.
I only kept track of Young Diego. There were alot of humans; enough to have the group outnumbered three humans to one saber. Young Diego clawed a spear out of one human's hands, then instinctively ducked as a spear went to jab into his side. He twisted and clawed at the other human. Blood poured from the leg wound created. He bit at the unarmed human's hand, and was about to go after the remaining human, but two pained roars made his (and my) attention turn to the right.
Bear was on the ground with Nick. They were both bleeding badly.
Young Diego had run over to them. He and Sam defended them, but soon Sam found herself down. Young Diego, Soto, Oscar, Lenny, and Zeke drove off the humans, but the damage was already done. Nick was already dead, and Bear and Sam were fading fast.
Young Diego walked over to Bear and nudged her side. "Bear?"
"I won't make it, Diego," she whispered. Looking around, I saw Soto, Lenny, and Zeke bowing their heads off to the side. Oscar and Sam were talking in hushed tones, too. I doubted anyone could here the conversation between Young Diego and Bear.
"You can do this," Young Diego whispered. "Fight. Fight to live."
"I'm sorry," Bear whispered back. "It's my time. I hear Momma callin my name. Promise me one thing, please."
"Anything."
"Don't follow everything Soto tells you to," she said. "Even though he's pack leader, I feel like he'll make a big mistake. Promise me that when you think that his mistakes are showing, you'll back out of the pack."
"I will. I promise." Tears welled up in his and my eyes. "I love you, Bear."
"I love you too."
And with that, the light died out of her deep blue eyes.
"Hey, Diego, you okay?"
I looked up at Eddie. "Not really, but I will be."
To my surprise, he didn't pry; he just nodded.
I didn't want to think about that. That was the worst thing I've ever witnessed. I needed to tell someone about this, or I was going to explode from the pressure.
That's when I remembered Manny's words. "When you're ready to talk, I'm here."
Okay, tonight when everyone else is asleep, I'll tell him. Everything.
"We're here!" Manny shouted, and I was left gazing at a giant hole in the ground in confusion.
*-KTKK-*
Okay, everyone probably wants to kill me right now, but I wanted to cut it off right here. If y'all wanted an update now, I had to cut it off here (long story).
Well, I'm tired. I gotta get some sleep. I suggest you all do the same.
Out for Blood,
*-KTKK-*
