At Winston's cave, Eve was keeping an eye on Princess. While she was watching her, she began to take a look at her closely. She thought to herself how someone as beautiful as her could be Slash's daughter in any way. Just then, Winston came back from having a talk with Tony's group
So, you're Slash's daughter,Terra; or do you prefer to be called Princess, said Winston.
If you're hoping to get information about where Humphrey is going with your daughter, then you are wasting your time; I don't even know where they are right now, Princess told them.
You were getting on a train with them; you must know where they are going, Winston pointed out.
They were going to some park far away from here. Who knows, maybe they're going to another park to repopulate it, Princess said with a smile on her face
WHAT!? MY DAUGHTER WOULD NEVER, Eve said in an angry voice until Winston stopped her
Eve, she's lying; that is not the reason they left the pack, said Winston
How do you know I'm not telling the truth, said Princess
You have your father's problem with lies; your eyes will roll and twitch if you lie, said Winston
So you do know my father, Princess pointed out
I guess you can say we used to be friends at one point, until he became a monster, said Winston
At least I'm not the only one who obviously sees that he's a monster, said Princess
I'm surprised that his own daughter would go against him like this; especially his daughter, Eve pointed out
Here is the obvious fact: My dad can't be king of all wolves. That would cause a problem for every single wolf in Jasper. If he became king, some of his rivals(which consist of 8 alpha wolves in my pack and other wolves elsewhere) would rise up to challenge him and it would put our pack into civil war; we'd be destroyed in an instant, Princess told them with a stern look on her face
So you're doing this for your pack, asked Eve
No! I'm doing this because him being in charge would cause problems for everyone and would lead to instant death and destruction. Don't confuse this into thinking I would prefer to see you king of all wolves, but I rather not see my own idiotic father bring the wolves in Jasper, and possibly other areas, down a dark road where there is no return, Princess stated.
So you sided with Humphrey since he planned on protecting Daria from him and us, said Winston
My dad heard that he knew about her from some spies of his and he planned to interrogate him to get info or wait for his pack leader to come and save him so he could get the info from him. I just used him as a way to prevent my father from getting the way to become king of all wolves, said Princess
So we have the same interest, said Winston
I don't think we do. While I know Humphrey doesn't want my father to become king of all wolves, what is stopping you all from doing the same thing at some point. I may know my father being the king of all wolves is bad, but the same thing could be said about you too, said Princess
You may be right. But the priority is to stop you father. Can we agree on that, asked Winston
We can. But don't think this means I swear any loyalty to you or anything; I'm doing this for the good of wolfkind, said Princess
Fair enough. What about those other three(Salty,Shakey, and Mooch), said Winston
I know they are loyal to Humphrey, but as long as you don't hurt them or anything they might cooperate with you until he comes back, said Princess
After their talk, Winston permits Princess to go free and walk around the pack. However, she would be constantly watched by Eve at all times.
In Tony's cave, he was angry and frustrated with what just happened. He would be pacing around in anger for what Winston and Garth did to him; he felt betrayed. Just then, Slash(King) showed up at his cave.
Hello old friend, said Slash
What are you doing here, asked Tony in anger
Simple! I came to ask if you would work with me, said Slash
Why would I do that, said Tony
Because we have common enemy: Winston. One of my spies who was trying to find out where Princess, Lyle and Link are told me about what happened. It must be humiliating to work under him. A wolf like you deserves to lead, said Slash
I would never follow you in any way, said Tony
I know you wouldn't. Don't think of this is me asking you to swear loyalty to me. Think of this as your way of getting rid of Winston and putting yourself and your son in charge. I know that's what you want most of all, said Slash
What you asking me to do, asked Tony
I just want Lyle, Link, and my traitorous daughter back to me and I promise to give you all of the Western territory for you to rule by yourself. I won't interfere with it once I become king of the wolves, said Slash
Say I do help you, what's stopping you from turning on me? I know you well and you wouldn't simply give it to me, said Tony
I only have interest in becoming king of all wolves. I just need to get rid of Winston above all else. True I could get rid of you too afterwards, but you don't want to be king of all wolves. You just want to make the Western pack stronger so a "certain tragedy" doesn't happen again. And I know you think under Winston's leadership it will happen again. What do you say Tony, asked Slash
Alright! I'll work with you on this; but never for you, stated Tony
Fair enough, said Slash
But what about Kate and Humphrey? They are heading to the wolf that can make you king, said Tony
I already have three of my alpha wolves and goose of mine going after them. Soon, they will be catching up to them in only a few days. Just be sure to have my daughter and my two wolves ready for me before then, said Slash
