A/N: tragedy struck when Humphrey was shot in a drive-by after leaving the club with Winston. Has he pulled through yet?
Humphrey gasped. He opened his eyes and looked around. He was in a hospital bed and realized he was still alive. "Thank god you're alright" said a voice. Humphrey turned to his right to see Winston sitting in a chair near the bed.
"Wha the hell happened?" He asked. "You saved me Humphrey, almost dying from a drive-by" Winston said. "How long have I've been out?" Humphrey asked. "You got shot three days ago and the gang got you to the hospital in time to save you." Winston said as he stood up and walked over to his left.
"Three days?!" He said in shock. Humphrey looked at his right shoulder to see a bandage covering his injuries. He looked at Winston and he smiled, seeing tha he almost died saving him.
"You're a good wolf Humphrey, saving someone like me is worth giving my trust towards you" Winston said putting his paws behind his back.
Just then they heard a knock on the door. Then Shakey, Salty, Mooch, and Hutch come in and see Humphrey awake. "Hey man, how you feeling?" Asked Mooch. They all gave Humphrey a gangster handshake.
"I'm fine, besides the pain I felt when the bullets blasted through my body." Humphrey joked. The guys laughed with him. "You really took a bullet this time, we never seen a wolf do something like that" Shakey said.
"You haven't?" Humphrey asked. "Never, this is the first time we've seen someone like you save Winston" Hutch said surprised. "Well, I wanted you guys to trust me. If I haven't, Winston would've been killed and everyone would be upset" Humphrey said.
He didn't know what went through his mind three days ago. His mission was to take down the Inner Circle 6, but at the moment when the red SUV passed by, something inside him made him save Winston's life.
"Well, we're just glad you're all right" Winston said patting Humphrey's shoulder. Just then the front door opened, and everyone was shocked to see Kate come in. "Humphrey" she said, running up to him and hugging him.
This surprised everyone, even Humphrey himself. Kate broke the hug and spoke. "I heard about what happened, thank you for saving my dad" She smiled. "I am an Inner Circle 6 wolf now, we look out for each other" Humphrey said smiling back.
"I promise you Humphrey; we'll find the guys who tried to me and have you take care of him yourself." Winston said as he left the room and walked out the room, but turned around and spoke "For now, get some rest. Let's go everyone, Kate you can stay with Humphrey for a while" Winston said walking out with the guys following him out.
Kate took a seat next to Humphrey and held his paw. "You are the bravest wolf my dad's gang has ever had" she said smiling at him. "Well, I can't be braver than my father" Humphrey brought up. "What was your father like?" Kate asked.
Humphrey sighed. He hadn't talked to anyone about his father for 14 years. But today he'll break that streak. "My father, was . . . in the FBI" Humphrey admitted, hoping that it wouldn't upset Kate. "Really?" she asked, not showing any anger at all.
"Yeah, he was on the force a month before I was born. Sadly my mom died a week after she came back from the hospital. He stayed home taking care of me" Humphrey said, showing sadness.
"After I turned 10, he told me he got an assignment at the FBI headquarters. Since then he's been coming home late, and never told me what his assignment was. But he got paid more and had time to spend time with me." He continued.
"This 'assignment' went on for another 6 years and he got busier than ever. Then one day when I came home, I saw police at my house. I went in and the police told me that my father was shot by gang I didn't know. Since that day, I lived on my own, working for food, getting beaten up in the streets, and having nightmares every night." Humphrey finished.
Kate sat there in shock to hear what happened to Humphrey's father, despite the fact he was a FBI agent. She hears Humphrey speak again.
"Because of that, I trained myself to defend myself in the streets. Then I heard about your gang and decided to join, hoping to find the gang that killed my dad and avenge his death." Humphrey said in a cold tone.
"I'm really sorry to hear that Humphrey, I didn't know" Kate said, almost crying from what she just heard. "Don't be Kate; soon with your guy's help I'll look all over L.A and kill whoever did it" Humphrey said looking at Kate, showing no fear.
It became quiet except for the heart beat machine attached to Humphrey. He lied to Kate, not telling her that he is in the FBI and is an undercover gangster. But the story about his father is true; he's hoping the Inner Circle 6 would actually help him find his killers.
Kate was still holding Humphrey's paw. "Uh, Kate, you're squeezing my paw" Humphrey said chuckling. Kate looked at her paw and let go, blushing under her fur. Humphrey saw the look on Kate's face and smiled as well.
"So now that you're here, I want to know a little more about you" Humphrey said. Kate got nervous and fidgeted with her paws. "Well, I love to sing, since you knew 3 days ago, I like to practice fighting at the hideout. . ." Kate went on as Humphrey continued listening to her.
". . . My favorite weapon to use from the armory is the ACR, and I dreamed of one day singing onstage with someone" Kate finished. "Is that what you really want Kate?" Humphrey asked.
"Yeah, but I get really scared without someone singing along with me. I just, feel so alone" Kate said in sad tone. Just then they hear someone walk through the door. A doctor came in with a tray full of medicine. "Excuse me; we need him to rest now and we can't have any visitors for a couple of hours." the doctor said.
Kate got up and looked at Humphrey. "Get well Humphrey" she said, leaning down to him and giving him a quick kiss on the check before smiling and leaving the room. "I think she likes you" the doctor said to Humphrey, organizing the tray.
"And, I think I might like her" Humphrey said before closing his eyes and fallin asleep.
A/N: I'm guessing that all of you saw the little spark between Humphrey, the undercover gangster, and Kate, an Inner Circle 6 gangster. Now you all know about what happened to Humphrey's father, but it wasn't a gang that killed his father . . .
