Ok folks. The battle you have all been waiting for. Now I'm not gonna force you to wait. Let's get into it.


Chapter 9

At the order of their alpha the coyotes surged forward snarling with the wolves charging forward to meet them. Soon the two sides clashed with the camp now filled with snarls and growls. Lincoln leaped at a coyote and knocked him to the ground only to get knocked to the side by another coyote. Lynn reared and swatted a coyote on the side of the head but another leaped on her shoulders. Luna rolled on the ground wrestling with a female coyote. Lori and Leni fought side by side against four coyotes with a series of swipes and bites. Luan leaped off a rock and landed on a coyote only to be tackled by two more. Lynn Sr. swatted a coyote to the side before grabbing another by the scruff and throwing him into a rock. Rita pinned a male coyote and bit him in the shoulder while a female bit her in the leg. As the battle continued, Zeta sat and watched as his coyotes battled the wolves in a battle for survival.

Back in the clearing, Lincoln threw a coyote off his back and scanned the clearing. Out of all the coyotes he only cared about finding one and that was Chandler. But so far he hadn't seen him. However, he did see Luan being pinned and attacked by three coyotes. With a growl, Lincoln ran forward and pulled one of the coyotes off of Luan and slammed a paw onto his head and into the ground. He then shoved another coyote off Luan and bit him in the leg causing him to run off. Lincoln then turned and saw that Luan had driven off her other attacker. He then runs to her side.

"You ok?" Lincoln asked.

"Yeah. I'm ok." Luan answered. "Let's stick together."

"Right." Lincoln barked. He and Luan turned and ran back into the fray.

Lynn shoved a female coyote to the side before a swatting another one away. She looked around trying to get a glimpse of some sort of any of her pack. She saw a flash of white fur in the corner of her eye and saw Lincoln running to Luan's side who was being attacked by three coyotes. She was about to run to help them but saw Lincoln quickly dispose of two while Luan fought off the third. She then saw the two run right back into the thick of the fight. Despite being outnumbered, she noticed that a lot of the coyotes were hanging back and not getting involved until one of their own is taken down. She found her targets. With a snarl she leaped into the battle and attacked one of the coyotes that were sitting on the side. She bit the coyote in the shoulder while the coyote tried to go for the back of her neck. She then felt something jump on her back causing her to lose her grip on the coyote. She then tried to attack her attacker only for the coyote she was fighting to jump onto her shoulders knocking her down. She then was swarmed by the two coyotes feeling them biting and clawing at her while she tried to fight them off. Suddenly, she felt the weight start to disappear and she saw her father had dragged one of the coyotes off of her and threw him to the edge of the clearing. She saw that the other coyote was distracted so she quickly leaped up and took him down. She then saw her father pad towards her.

"Can you stand?" Lynn Sr. asked.

"Yeah." Lynn answered as she slowly got to her feet.

"I know you're tired but there's no time to rest." Lynn Sr. said as he scanned the battlefield and saw his cubs fighting the coyotes. "I never wanted this. I never wanted you pups to suffer for a decision that your grandfather made before you all were born. But what's done is done and I gotta do whatever it takes to fix this. For the future of the pack." He then runs into the fray.

Lori and Leni stood side by side as they swatted several coyotes in the clearing. Both she-wolves were exhausted. With each coyote they took down, another took its place. But for now the coyotes had stopped trying to swarm the two of them letting the two catch their breaths. Lori looked around and saw that the clearing was still filled with coyotes. She looked around and tried to find any sign of her sisters and brother. She looked and saw Luna in the center of the clearing wrestling a two coyotes. She then saw Lynn run in and pull one of the coyotes away allowing Luna to get up to her paws. She saw Luan and her mother fighting in front of the nursery. Luan went for the front leg of a coyote while Rita would swat the head. Another coyote jumped onto Rita's back knocking her off her feet causing Luan to pounce on the coyote and force her off her mother. However another coyote pounce on Luan. Lori then decided to see if she could find her brother. She then saw him by the stream and her heart nearly stopped when she saw him. His white fur had several streaks of red on it though she couldn't tell if it was his blood or the blood of the coyotes. But right now he was facing off with a single coyote and she took a closer glance and saw that it was Chandler. In fact she was close to hear what they were saying.

"So you and your coyotes have the nerve to attack our camp?" Lincoln snarled. "You have a lot of nerve Chandler."

"So what Larry." Chandler growled. "We're taking over this territory and we ain't going to let you get in our way."

"We'll see about that." Lincoln growled. The two then leaped forward and they collided in the air and landed on the ground in a heap of growls and snarls.

"Lori! What do we do?" Leni asked.

"We keep fighting." Lori answered. The two then hear snarling and saw two coyotes start to approach them.

"Look at what we have here Ed." One said. "That's the wolf that cost us that tasty looking rabbit a few days ago."

"Your right Mack." Ed said. "Maybe we should teach her what happens when you mess with our food."

"Bring it on." Lori snarled as she and Leni leaped towards them.


Inside the den, Lucy sat with her ears perked trying to listen to the battle. She could hear the snarls, the growls and the barks coming from the clearing. She could also somewhat make out her pack. She heard the outraged snarl from Lynn, the pained yelp from Luan and the howl of rage from her father. In the den was no better. Lucy could hear the scared cries from Lily as Lana and Lola tried to calm her down. Lisa however sat stoic in the center of the cave looking at the entrance.

"How do you think it's going out there?" Lucy asked.

"Hard to say." Lisa answered. "From the sound of it, not well."

"Dang it." Lucy growled. "I feel so helpless! I should be out there fighting with them! But I haven't started my training yet so I stuck." Lisa opens her mouth to say something else when she hears something approach the entrance. Lucy gets in an attack position as she prepares to try to protect her sisters. However she relaxes when she sees that the figure wasn't a coyote. It was Luna. Lucy saw that Luna was exhausted from her heavy breathing. She also saw that she saw blood going down her shoulder as well as some coming out from a cut above her eye.

"C'mon guys. I'm getting you pups out of here." Luna told them.

"Are you retreating?" Lola asked. Luna shook her head.

"No. The fight is getting insane and I gotta make sure that I get you to safety." Luna said. She runs and grabs the crying Lily by the scruff and ran out of the den with the rest of the pups following. As soon as they got out of the den, they saw the battle was still being waged in the clearing. Lucy saw her brother wrestling with a coyote by the stream. She saw Leni and Lori fighting side by side against two coyotes not far away. She then looked and saw Lynn rear up and swat a coyote in the head before being tackled by two more. She heard two sets of paws run towards them and saw Luan and her mother running towards them. Lucy saw that both were hurt. Luan was limping a little while also bleeding from her side while Rita's ear was torn and had some blood coming down her neck.

"Good. You got them." Rita said as Luna nodded unable to speak because she was holding Lily in her mouth. "We're getting you out of camp. Hopefully there aren't any coyotes in the woods."

"Doesn't look like it." Luan pointed out. "Looks like all the coyotes are here. We should be able to get them out of here."

"Good. Follow me and stay close." Rita ordered. Her pups nodded as they followed their mother through the carnage of their camp. Two coyotes tried to cut them off but Rita and Luan intercepted them and wrestled them to the ground. They then got back up and led the pups to the entrance of the camp that was open and unblocked. As soon as they made it through, Rita saw that there was no sign of coyote in the forest. She then looked towards her pups as Luna placed Lily on the ground. "Ok, I need the five of you to head to Mr. Grouse's tree and stay there until someone comes for you. And by no means are you to leave the tree until someone comes for you. Do I make myself clear?" The young pups nod and Rita then nuzzles each of them while also being careful not to get blood on them. "I love you." She then turns to Luna and Luan. "Come on. We still have worked to do." Her two pups nod and the three run back into the camp. Once they're gone, the five young pups started to head towards Grouse's tree. Before she followed, Lucy looked back towards her home, wondering if any of her pack will come for them.
