Chapter 13: ...:::EDITED:::... Nothing will separate us ...:::EDITED:::...
Lilly's POV:
I start to panic then notice that the bails of hay on the train have been arranged differently. I pull one of the hay bails away, and the whole tower falls down, revealing a laughing gray wolf. "You Scared Me To Death, Humphrey!" "I know Lilly, I was just trying to have some fun. and by the way, were almost there." I silently cuss at him for doing this to me, but calm down quickly. Good thing I don't have mom's anger. "Ok, Humphrey, you'll need to show me how to survive out here though." "No Prob" he says, probably happy that I asked. "Get off here, Lily" I quickly jump off the train due to the request, as he follows, we run through the forest, skidding to a stop just before a clearing. In the clearing there is a beautiful wolf. Gold fur, and ice-blue eyes, just like Humphrey's I look over to see what Humphrey, but catch a look of pain on his face. Suddenly the wold looked at us, and start walking towards us. "Lily, run" he commands "Why? We're in this together!" "If we were, I would let you stay, but this is between me and her. Something that happened before I joined your pack. Let me finish what happened several years ago. Run back to the tracks, I'll meet you there" he practically screams the last sentence at me. I start to run, and make sure none of the wolves are chasing me, then stop, to watch whats going to happen.
Humphrey's POV:
"What do you want, sister?" I ask, practically spitting the last word. We walk in circles, challenging each other. "You know whats wrong with me. I'm going to kill you at father's command" she spits back. "Jenna, your and dad are just jealous that I've become stronger than you both." I know I'm going to win for exactly that reason. They are mad I became stronger than them, and I could kill them both. They are afraid of what they can't contain. Me.
(Author) Sorry for the quick change in POV, but it is needed for what happens next.
Lilly's POV:
Wait? Humphrey has a sister? Named Jenna? Then I watch in amazement, as Humphrey grows larger. His muscles bulk and he becomes larger and stronger than any of the Alpha's in our pack. Then I get a glint of his eyes, they've become red. Then re-noticing his sister, who has also gotten stronger, but not as strong as Humphrey. They pounce on each other, fighting obviously to the death. I make it a game, by announcing what happens. "Humphrey gets a good claw on the gold wolf" "And NO!" I cry, as she scratches his back leg badly. "Ohh! That gotta hurt!" I exclaim, as he gives his sister a hard kick to the jaw, making a loud cracking noise. She starts to whimper and runs off. I run into the clearing, just as Humphrey returns back to shape, and I notice his cut has already healed, leaving a scar. "Umm, I don't know how much of that you saw" he says, obviously trying to hide what has just happened. "Oh. All of it. From you seeing your sister again to when you broke her jaw. What are you?" "I am a ran that in my old pack, they call a X-Elite, we transform when we are about to be in a fight" "How strong are you?" I ask, amazed. "Strong enough that I could take down all the Alphas in the pack, combined, without even breaking a sweat" He answers. I'm stunned, just finding this out bout Humphrey now. "Look Lilly, if you don't want to be together anymore, I understand. I wasn't expecting any of this to happen." "No, Humphrey. You are mine" I smile. Nothing can take me away from Humphrey. Not even death. "Let's get home early, Lilly, I don't want anything bad to happen to you." Humphrey say, sad they couldn't have a full vacation. "Don't worry Humphrey, it'll be ok" I assure him. "We can catch the next train" I say again, re-assuring myself.
Whoooo Whooooooooo
"There it is now" Humphrey says. We both run, just barley making it into the last train car. "You are going to tell my parents about this, right?" I ask him. He shrugs, which I take as a no. "Follow me to their den" I say, planning on making him show them.
When they finally get back to Jasper
"Mom! Dad?" "What Lily?" Eve replies. "Can me and Humphrey tell you something, or well, maybe show you, and bring dad" I say, staying out side the den. "Did Humphrey do something to you, dear" she asks, in a irritated voice. "Winston! Come here please!" Eve shouts. Then about ten seconds latter they both step outside of the den. "What was it you were going to tell us?"
Humphrey's POV:
I clear my throat, and start what I am going to say. "I need to tell you something. I should have told you this the first day I joined this pack" I feel tension in the air but keep telling my story. "I am not from around here. Nowhere near. Me and Lily actually where close to where I was born." "Where I'm from theres a certain rank called "X-Elite". An X-Elite is a highly trained, very strong wolf, that can hide almost everything about themselves. We can even change are appearance" I say, shifting into what I really look like. Eve looks impressed with my looks, then passes out. Winston catches her, and Eve quickly regains consciousness. "There more. As you probably can tell, I am very strong, but there is more to it. I heal really fast, and my eyes can tell you when I'm extremely in a mood. Red is Rage, Black is Pure Rage, White is Love, Yellow is Hate, and I have a few more that I'd rather not share.." Lily now understands why his eyes where red. "Lily, Don't forget there is a moonlight howl tonight." Eve shouts. "We've been gone that long?" Lily asks. And I wonder to myself if that is possible... 7 days before the trip 4 days on the trip 5 days resting, but don't say anything. "Oh, sorry, you probably don't know. There has been a new marriage in the pack, and we are doing a moonlight howl for them" Eve answers to my thoughts. "Humphrey, you may want to change back before you walk out of here, but if you don't mind, show up for the moonlight howl like that" Lily says. I'm willing to do that for her, for I've kept my secret to long. Waiting below the ledge where the howl was going to be in another hour, I see Kate. But I was unchanged at the moment, thus not looking like what she thought I looked like. "Wow! You look good! What is your name? I don't think I've seen you before." says a startled Kate. I'm stunned, but I'm here for Lily. "Leave me alone, I already have one to Howl with" my answer is quick and short, and I had slightly deepened my voice so I'd go unrecognized. "Who are you going with?" she asks. "A beautiful white wolf named Lily" I say, trying to play dumb. "YES! She is no longer with that ass hole Humphrey!. She won't care when I rip his throat out. MUAHAhahahha!" "Good Luck With That" I say, while changing into the person she would recognize me as. She gets a WTF look, and is scared. "You didn't expect that, did you?" I question a scared Kate. "How did you do that?" she asks quickly. "I am an X-Elite. Much more highly trained than you silly Alpha. Your parents already know" I say, to make her look bad. "But ... But... But... your an Omega!" She says. "No. I was faking an Omega. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a howling partner to catch up with" I say, truly just trying to get out of there. Now, there is one more thing I can do. I can read minds. Lilly truly loves me, but from being near Kate, I found out that she and Garth were on a hunt, and something went wrong, and Garth died. Kate was truly hurting inside, but starting wandering into the woods everyday and found someone else for her. When then howl started, it was just like last time, are howls were perfectly together. The next day, I go on a secret hunting trip, catching 4 large caribou. Enough to feed the pack for a week.
(Author) Don't worry I didn't forget about this story. I'm working on the next chapter right now. I have a poll on my profile for which story I should work in most. Whichever story gets the most votes by November 1 will be focused on.
