IN HUMPHREY'S AUNT'S DEN

"I HAVE A AUNT!" Humphrey yelled causing a coughing fit and made his scream in protest.

"Easy Humphrey don't hurt yourself." His aunt said lightly placing a paw on his chest.

" What is your name?" Humphrey said with a questioning look.

"Humphrey you forgot. My name is Ann. Don't you remember. Your parents where taking you to a see a healer."

Humphrey just shock his head no.

"Well what happened?"

"My pack leaders told me that my parents were attacked by a rival pack of The West. They took me in and watched over me. But then in Alpha school I went over a water fall in a accident and lost my memory." Humphrey answered her question.

"Well Humphrey let me fill you in. You are located about 10 miles North west From your pack. Also do you know you are the Grandson of the great wolf know as Amoux."

Humphrey almost stopped breathing. Most all wolves knew Amoux. A fierce fighter but also a very carrying and generous wolf. It was know by all that you do not cross him or you will end up in the ground. Just them a very big grey wolf came barging into the den and start yelling at Ann

"How dare you bring a wolf into our Territory and not inform me. I should revoke all your privileges.." The big wolf froze when his eyes crossed over Humphrey laying on the ground.

"Humphrey ?" was all the big wolf could utter.

"I thought you were killed when... We lost my Son." He stopped remembering when word came back that they had not herd from Humphrey's parents.

"Lets stop dwelling on the past, How is my grandson doing?" Amoux said with tail wagging.

At the Western Pack. Alphas den.

Kate was standing on the Ledge out-front of her parents den waiting to See the pack Alphas return so she could apologize to Humphrey. Eve was sitting next to her waiting to see Winston. Just then they both spotted the group of Alphas at about the same moment. Eve started running to go see Winston but Kate was counting the Alphas. He fear was confirmed. Humphrey wasn't there. Most of the Alphas where Limping some had to be carried.

Eve with Kate behind came running upto Winston. Winston hung his head knowing he had to tell Kate that Humphrey had died. Eve was walking next to Winston by the Time Kate got there.

"All the Alphas report to Haze's den to get your wounds looked at. I will join you in a moment." Winston turend is Head to Kate but before he could speak Kate spoke.

Where is Humphrey, Is he ok. Why did I say those mean things to Humphrey" Kate was talking fast and hyperventilating.

"Kate, Humphrey gave his life to save mine and the other Alphas. He stayed behind to give us time to retreat from the North." Winston was very sad He had always thought of Humphrey as a Son.

Eve looked away so no one would see her wipe a tear away.

Kate after hearing her fathers words immediately broke down crying.

"I'am sorry Kate" Winston walked over to His daughter and put a paw on her back to comfort her.

3 Weeks later

Humphrey's old home

Humphrey couldn't believe it. He had found he lost family. He was the grandson of a great wolf that all showed respect to or they were killed. Also he Found out he had a Aunt and a sister that looked very similar to his coat color. He was patrolling the boarder of his old family's pack. There were only a total of about 7 wolves including him so it was small.

Humphrey was walking along when he herd a Howl from a few miles off. A minute later he herd a Howl he recognized. Humphrey took off heading for where he herd the howl's to see what was happening.

A few minutes later and a little out of breath Humphrey arrived at a clearing. Humphrey stayed in the bushes to avoid being found and watched to what was about to unfold. Just as Humphrey had settled into a comfortable position Winston walked into the middle of the clearing and another wolf walked out of the bushes opposite of Winston. Humphrey recognized the other wolf as a Northern pack member.

"Winston what are you doing in my territory." The Northern Wolf hissed as he started to circle Winston.

"Your territory, What happened to your leader." Winston replayed with almost a the same tone.

As Humphrey listened he smelled a strange scent on the air and not just one of them. It hit Humphrey like a brick but before Humphrey could react the Northern wolf had already started talking.

"What happened to out leader! Is the same thing that is about to happen to you. GET HIM!" The northern wolf leap forward going for Winston's throat. Winston had barley enough time to move his head to the side and place his shoulder in line of the attack. Winston felt the teeth of the wolf sink in to his Shoulder. Winston fell and started to roll to get the wolf off of him. Winston then realized that more wolves were coming out of the woods to help the Northern Pack leader. Winston laid his head down accepting death.

Winston's life started to flash before his eyes. Just as the Northern leader was about to bite Winston's neck and finish him off when a howl emerged from the bushes then a grey flash. Before the Northern leader could think Humphrey had jumped on him and started to claw he chest. A wolf in the crowd jumped at Humphrey and knocked him down as another wolf went for Winston. No matter how much Humphrey struggled he could not get lose. The wolf atop Humphrey just smiled and held down Humphrey as he watched in rage as a wolf bit into Winston's neck. Blood flowed like a river and Winston's body went limp.

Humphrey let out a blood curtailing scream of rage and pushed the wolf off and charged the wolf standing over Winston's body smiling. Humphrey latched on to the wolf's neck and felt the blood pour and life leave. Just as Humphrey dropped the dead wolf two others jumped him. Humphrey was pinned to the ground. "What are you going to do now you little shit" The bigger of the two wolves spat out.

A grey blur in the forst made Humphrey smile. He looked up to the big wolf with a glem in his eyes. "Your going to regret that" Humphrey said pointing a paw towards the trees. Amoux stood with rage in his eyes. "How dare you hurt my grandson!" in two bounds Amoux landed next to Humphrey and with a swipe of his paw sent the two wolves flying though the air landing thirty feet away with a sicking snap which Humphrey knew where there spines snapping. The rest of the wolves turned and ran, as they left the northern leader turned and yelled. " Both of you are going to regret this" then he vanished in to the tree line.

Humphrey stood up and looked at his grandfather. " Thank you for coming so fast"

"We always protect our kin Humphrey" Humphrey had a questioning look as the rest of Humphrey's old pack stepped out of the forest. Humphrey acknowledge every one then ran to Winston's side, Ann quickly joining him.

Ann put her head down to Winston's chest. "He's alive but barley, Bad news is I cant help him I am not that experienced for neck wounds." "Well we have to do som..." Humphrey stopped mid sentence as a thought came to him. " Do you know how far The western territory is from here." Ann had to think for a minute. " It is about 5 miles south of here..You cant be thinking of carrying that far." "I have to do what needs to be done. Amoux can you help me get Winston on my back."

Minutes later

Humphrey had Winston on his back and a plan was set. Amoux would take his wolves back to there territory except for Ann and Humphrey's Sister, Who would go with Humphrey to help him and meet the western pack. In a week Amoux would bring his pack down to the West and try to unite with the west. With the plan set the two groups started to execute the plan.

Winston's Den

Eve was walking around the den. She had a bad felling about Winston going to the north to try to talk peace on his own. Kate was in the back of the den silently sobbing to her self. She had tried to go back to her old den but the scent of Humphrey made her cry again. Lilly was next to Kate trying to comfort her. "Why did he go alone why" Eve yelled startling some wolves near the Alpha den that could hear her.

Humphreys Location entering western territory.

Humphrey was at a full run now. Blood coated both Winston and Humphrey's side where Winston's head hung limp. Ann and Humphrey's sister was not far behind but were having trouble keeping up.

"Humphrey slow down, We cant keep up" Ann yelled forward. "Follow...My..scent" Humphrey said between gasps for air. As if on q the sky's opened up and it started to rain. Most of the wolves in the valley had headed to there dens and were watching the valley from the mouth of there den's.

Blitz was laying in his den when he heard a scream from the next den over. He stuck his head out and started to speak but what he saw made him turn as white as a sheet. Running towards the Alphas den was a grey wolf With another grey wolf atop of him. They were both coated in blood. Blitz recognized Winston instantly but couldn't place the other one. Then it hit him, It cant be.

Humphrey was at the base of the ramp to the Alphas den when he ran into hutch.

"Watch where your goin..." Hutch was cut off when he saw Humphrey with Winston on his back blood on both. "Don't Just stand there, Go get Haze NOW!" Humphrey yelled as he started running again Ann and his sister one his heals.

The thunder was starting to echo through the valley and the storm had caused it to get very dark out.

Humphrey was at the opening of the den when lightning struck in the valley lighting up the den and him.

Humphrey rushed in to the den watched by three wolves. Eve recognized Winston right off, She jumped knocking Winston off Humphrey's back and hit the ground with a thud.

"How dare you hurt my mate" Eve yelled choking the unknown wolf that was Humphrey. Humphrey threw Eve off of him and pinned her to the floor. It was then that Eve recognized the wolf.

"Humphrey" was all Eve could squelch out.

"If you want Winston to live you better stop trying to kill me and help him" Humphrey said with rage as he got off. It was then That Eve saw Ann and Humphrey's sister. Eve didn't question who they where and went to work on Winston just as Haze arrive with a crowd that was following wanting to see what was going on.

Haze saw Winston with Eve working on him and ran to help. When she saw the damage she called for several different herbs a big leaf and tree sap. Four wolves in the crowd took off.

Kate who was in the back of the den was moving her head from the still figure that was her father to Humphrey. Kate jumped up and ran towards Humphrey. Humphrey stepped out of the way and Kate slid to a stop.

"Humphrey?"

"We will talk after they save your father Kate" Humphrey answered with no emotion towards Kate.

Kate turned and went back to crying next to Lilly in the back of the den as Humphrey walked out towards the crowed.

When he was next to them Humphrey stopped. Every one was looking at him. A idea popped in to his head. The omega in Humphrey was going to make an appearance.

Humphrey jumped forward a few feet and yelled "Boo"

Every one in the crowd jumped on in the middle fainted.

"Sorry about that, Couldn't resits" Humphrey said in a happy mood. His expressive suddenly turned to very serious again. "The wolf I carried in here is Winston. He is in grave condition and may die. I will have a meeting tomorrow for all that would like to know what happened to Winston, As of right now It will be best if you give the healers room and head back to your den" Humphrey turned and walked off into the rain when he had finished followed by his Sister and Ann.
