Humphrey's age: 2

Humphrey's POV

I slowly opened my eyes and looked around where I was, I was in what looked like a den but it wasn't any familiar one.

"Where am I?" I asked
"Your in Montana" A voice then said
"Where's that?" I asked
"Here is where it is" The voice said

I looked to where was the voice was originating and all I saw was an outline of another wolf in the corner of the den.

"What?" I asked
"Never mind, it doesn't matter at the moment, what matters is are you ok?" The wolf asked

The figure got up and walked forward allowing me to see what they looked like. The wolf was brown and mix of tan with a white underbelly, he looked and sounded male and looked a little younger than I was.

"Who are you?" I said
"The names Chris" He said
(A/N: Yes I have put myself in the story)
"Well Chris, how did I get here, why am I here, and where's Kate?" I said getting up
"Woah, slow down buddy, just relax and sit down you're in no condition to be going anywhere just yet due to your injures." He said

I looked at myself when he said injures, I was shocked to see all these cuts and bruises all over me.

"Where did this come from" I said looking at my cuts
"Well I found you like that, it must of been from the crash" He said
"Crash?" I asked
"Yeah you looked pretty bad and there was fire and smoke, but luckily I got you out of there and brought you here, and I learned a thing or two from my mother when it came to healing wounds, so I got you all patched up." He said
"Okay, but what crash?" I said
He gave me a confused look "You don't remember?" He asked
"No" I said
"Wow you must of had your memory wiped a little from the impact." He said "What do you remember last?"
"Well, all I remember was that I was out hunting for me and Kate, and after that it's just a blank." I said
"Yep you lost a little of your memory, hopefully it will comeback." He said
"Can you take me to where you found me, I want to know what this crash you keep taking about is." I said
"No you need to wait till tomorrow, like I said, you need to let your injures heal." He said
"A whole day?" I asked
"Yep"
"Oh no I can't wait, I need to get back home right now. I just know that Kate is worried sick about me since I'm not there" I said with a worried look
"Who's Kate?" He asked
"She's my mate" I said
"Oh then yes you do need to get home quick" He said
"Yes" I said
"But you need to wait at least one day" He said
"Well alright I will wait since I got these injuries" I said
"Good, so tell me about yourself, it'll help pass the time." He said

I told him about where I lived and who I was, I also told him a little about my history. He listened to all of it and even asked a few questions here and there.

"Okay that's enough about me, how about you?" I said
"Well as you can see I am a lone wolf, I have lived out here for almost a year now on my own." Chris started
"How old are you though?" I asked
"I'm one but I'll be two in a few days' time" He said
"Oh, go on" I said
"Well you see I was separated from my parents in a snowstorm, it was horrible, I was determined to find my parents again but everywhere I looked I never saw them." He said
"How sad" I said
"Yeah, so I finally gave up on finding them and just found a den to live in, I taught myself how to hunt, defend, and how to survive out here on my own. And here I am now just a lone wolf out here on my own."
He said
"Wow I got separated by my parents as well, as a pup." I said
"You did?" He said
"Yes" I said "They got framed and murdered for a crim that they did not commit"
"Oh wow" He said
"So I ran away from that pack and found another one, which I still lived in today." I said
"I wish I had a pack, the problem is that there aren't any out here, just lone wolfs" He said
"Well tell you what, if you help me get some of my memory back you can come with me back to Jasper and you can become a member of the pack I'm in." I said
"Really?" He said excitedly
"Of course, and I could use the company on my trek back home" I said
"I would love to join a pack" He said
"So deal?" I said holding out my paw
"Deal" He said shaking my paw "but before we do anything let's wait until tomorrow, and it's already night out."
I looked out the den and sure enough it was night out
"Wow your right, time sure fly's" I said

We sat and talked some more before deciding to get some sleep for the night.


A/N: The deal is sealed and the two have a long ways to go until they get back to Jasper. R&R
