Alpha and Omega: The Reunion
Drake's POV
"THEY KNEW?!" Hutch asked, yelling so loud it hurt Conrad's sensitive ears as he laid next to Cole and Byron "HOW DID THEY KNOW?!"
"Shhhhhhh Hutch! You're hurting Conrad's ears!" Cole whispered, nudging the pup deeper into Byron's fur side.
"Sorry, it's just, how did they know? I was always so careful while we were there"
"Well obviously, you weren't careful enough were you?" Candu asked, nibbling on Armstrong's ear while Sirius nibbled on his other.
"It's okay Hutch, he accepts it, and I know he likes you, whats the problem?" Leon asked, tilting his head as he let me climb all over him and Stephon, currently on his head, tilting my head with him.
"I-I guess not, but still-"
"No buts, deal with it okay?" Leon objected, nuzzling Hutch.
Hutch nodded, smiling as he gained a nuzzle from his soon to be mate.
I then caught a glance of Sirius looking at me, but as soon as I looked he turned his head looking away from me to Conrad. I sighed, knowing that I might not be seeing Sirius for much longer.
The first thing we're going to do is drop Sirius off at his mothers and so Armstrong could ask Siegfried something. Then we were heading to their home, Jasper Park.
I just hope I could visit Sirius.
"Well we better get up, we're almost there!" Armstrong announced, pulling Candu and Sirius off his earsand getting up.
I guess it was almost the time, time to say goodbye to Sirius.
Armstrong's POV
"Is everyone ready?" Candu asked, looking back at all of us.
We all nodded. Currently, I was carrying Sirius on my back, not wanting him to get injured while Hutch carried Drake and Byron had the double task of carrying the still injured Cole, because he wanted to, and Conrad sense he only wanted to be carried by Cole or Byron.
We entrusted Stephon with the task of scouting ahead for us, letting Lydia and Siegfried know we were coming. So he had already left of his own free will and is probably there right now, waiting for us.
Candu kissed my cheek before jumping off the train with me shortly after him and the others following me. Luckily, no accidents happened like last time with Leon and Cyrus. Everyone landed farely well, no one injured although Byron spent a while making sure Cole was okay.
But afterwords we began walking to my friends den, all together, Cole was still on Byron's back, laying his head on Byron's shoulder. I know something is up with them because they clearly like each other but Candu still thinks Byron has the hots for me somehow.
Oh well, he'll get over it pretty soon, hopefully.
"Armstrong!"
I looked up seeing my winged friend flying towards me. Siegfried with the big smile of his as he took his spot on my shoulder like old times.
"Siegfried!" I gasped, smiling as I nuzzled him and as did Sirius when he saw him land on my shoulder.
"Hey Siegfried" Candu said, smiling at the owl as the others made their introductions.
"Where's Momma?!" Sirius asked, getting off my back and wagging his little tail.
"She's waiting for you, all of you, but I don't recongize these two" Siegfried said, tilting his head at the two new additions to our little group.
"Oh! They're my friends! This is Conrad and this is Drake!" Sirius answered, putting his paws around the two canines.
Conrad wasn't to fond of being taken off of Cole's back but he still smiled all the same and as did Drake. Siegfried smiled back at the two pups and introduced himself as well. I let the others go ahead to go and talk to Lydia as I stayed behind with just Siegfried, theres still something I need to do.
Nathan's last words.
Turning to Siegfried, I sighed, knowing that I was about to learn something I should have already known, if only I didn't fall asleep when I thought we were both safe and sound.
"You wanted to talk Armstrong?"
"Yeah, Siegfried, do you recall the night Nathan...passed?"
"Y-yes, why do you ask?"
I looked down, not sure if I was really about to ask a question that I got from my old dead mate in a dream I had a while ago. But I had to believe that Nathan wanted me to know this.
"W-what were his last words?!"
Siegfried seemed shocked, so shocked that he almost fell off of my shoulder and onto the ground and then he regained his footing before finally looked at me.
"W-why would you think I knew?" He asked, sounding nervous.
I looked down, what should I tell him? That my dead mate told me to ask him? I was sure he would think I'm crazy. Eh whatever.
"B-because Nathan told me"
"Oh...I see"
He believed it?
"I-I wanted to tell you for a long time now, but you left to soon for me to tell you and I wasn't able to when you came because I feared you'd be mad..." He continued "B-but, I want to tell you now..."
Flashback/Siegfried's POV
I was flying towards Nathan and Big Brother's den, wanting to see them before they went to sleep to make sure that they were alright, I heard the lound sounds while Momma and the others were asleep.
I was almost there, the only den near anywhere as it stood out like a sore thumb inside this forest of green, even at night with my of a regular owl.
Eventually I arrived at their den, hoping to see the two canines cuddled up together safely but that was not what happened like everyday's routine. I walked into the den with a smile but when I saw what was inside that smile dissapeared entirely.
Nathan, covered in what I thought was his own blood, barely alive and breathing as he still held his mate Armstrong close as the wolf slept on with a smile on his face, I walked as fast as I could towards him until he noticed me and kept smiling.
"O-oh...Hey Siegfried...aren't y-you supposed to be with your Mother?" He asked, looking very tired.
"N-nathan! What happened?!" I asked, only to be shushed by the dog.
"Shhhhhhhh you're a little to loud Siegfried, you'll wake him up" Nathan said, nuzzling Armstrong softly.
I looked at the wolf, how was he so quiet and asleep? Did he not know about Nathan's wounds?
"He fell asleep..." Nathan managed out, putting his head on top of Armstrong's
"N-nathan just wait, I'll go get Momma" I informed about to take off for my Mom to see if she could do anything when he stopped me.
"Don't Siegfried, if you want to help could you at least listen?"
I nodded, tears going down my face.
"I-I think he fell asleep before I got to finish...my last words to him..." He panted "I want to let him sleep...but I want you to tell him when he's ready that...I want him to go on without me, find someone...s-someone who h-he'll love a-and someone that loves him m-more than me...if thats even possible" He said kissing his mates cheek.
"I-I'll tell him Nathan..." I cried, running up and hugging the dog as he hugged back.
"G-good thank you Siegfried you're a good guy, take care of yourself now, and your family" He laughed quietly.
How was he laughing at a time like this? I knew it hurt I could tell that much but he didn't even show any pain at all.
"I promise Nathan" I cried.
He nodded then turning to Armstrong and nibbling on his ear with an even bigger smile.
"I love this ear...I don't want him to live alone, he deserves the best...and Siegfried"
"Y-yes?" I asked, still hugging him.
"T-tell him I love him...with all of my heart and soul" He requested, tears going down his face "My only regret in life...is that I wasn't able to spend more time with you...Armstrong"
Nathan closed his eyes, never going to open them again, Armstrong's ear coming out of his mouth as Nathan's tears went down to his mates forehead and drying on his fur. His head remaining on the wolf's own head even as he passed.
I was shocked, watching to see if he would give the slightest movement but when none came I burst out into tears, flying out of the den to go tell my Mother what had just happened.
End of Flashback/Armstrong's POV
I was looking down at the ground, smiling and crying at the same time. Smiling because that I finally knew what my first mate had said before he died and that he thought of me in even his last moments. Crying because it took me this long to actually find out his last words, I got a new mate, had my anniversery, Siegfried grew up.
All of that happend before I found out, I felt like I betrayed him a little.
"T-thank you Siegfried, for everything"
"He loved you, always did, always will" Siegfried reminded as I turned my back to go to my mate.
"Yeah, I know, and so do I, forever and always"
Sirius's POV
"MOM!"
I smiled at the sight of her, being able to see her as she was before she got sick, her white fur that nearly sparkled in the sunlight. It brought me such happiness to see her like this again.
"Sirius, I missed you" She said, tears going down her face as I jumped into her arms as she hugged me and I hugged her back, not wanting to leave her again at the moment.
"So this is your beautiful Mom, Sirius?" Drake asked, smiling.
'The little suck up' I thought, looking at him.
"Yup! This is the best Mom in the world!" I answered nuzzling her.
She nuzzled me back, as much fun as I had, I still missed and worried about her a lot. There wasn't a day when I hadn't thought about her well being.
"And who is this young pup?" She asked, looking at Drake.
"My name is Drake, Ma'am, its a pleasure to see you" He answered for himself, taking a small bow.
"Well, its very nice to meet you to young Drake, but Stephon told me that there would be two pups, I only see one" Mom answered.
"Yeah, where is Conrad? And Byron and Cole for that matter" Stephon asked, looking around at the wolves that were cramped into the small den.
"Conrad is with Byron and Cole! They wanted to ask him something in private" I answered.
It was weird, how they left all of a sudden, they just wanted to talk to Conrad so they just took him smiling at each other. As if they had something really important to tell the small blind pup. I wonder what they had to ask him that they couldn't ask in person.
Cole's POV
"Cole?" Conrad asked from on my back, tilting his small head as I slowly limped, trying to walk.
"Yes Conrad?" I asked, looking at him and waiting for his question.
"Where are we going?"
Byron nuzzled me, licking my cheek and causing me to blush madly.
"I have to ask you both something" Byron answered, his smile staying stuck on his face, this has honestly been the most I've ever seen Byron smile, what was he up to?
Why was he being so affectionate as well? I mean lately he's been nuzzling and licking my cheek and forehead like he just did just now, I have to admit I like it but that doesn't mean I don't want to know why he's being so affectionate. Maybe it's just because he felt like he had to because I was injured?
But even so, why bring Conrad and I out this far?
"This should be far enough" Byron said suddenly stopping.
"Far enough for what?" Conrad and I asked.
Byron turned to both of us and took Conrad off of my back, giving him a small lick on his nose which made him even happier than he was now as and it showed with his tail wagging.
"I wanted to start by asking you something Cole"
I tilted my head at him, why would he want to bring us all the way out here just to talk.
"What is it Byron?"
"Cole...you know we've only known each other for a short amount of time but I wanted to ask you something"
"Y-yes?"
I didn't expect it, what he was about to do that is, he bowed his head to me with the biggest blush across his face.
"W-well...I don't really know how to say this, but...Cole you make me so happy, ever sense the day I met you and I had to carry you on my back, it was then that I started to see you as a friend, but when you fell my heart broke and after I knew you were injured, all I could do was think about you, it was then that I started to see you as my crush" Byron explained, keeping his eyes closed.
I stared at the silver furred wolf, he had a crush on me? I mean I know I'm in love with Byron, I knew that sense the first time I layed eyes on him, then there were the weeks that he took care of me and I found out how good he truly was, how nice, sweet, kind, amazing he was. But what was he doing? Bowing like this...it was almost like he was...
"Then" He continued "I started taking care of you and I started thinking about you as my true love"
Wait!
"B-byron...what are you saying?" I asked, looking at the wolf before me.
He lifted his head, a tear going down his eyes as he did so, but he still kept that smile and blush on his face even as the next words left his mouth.
"What I'm trying to say is...Cole, will you be my mate?"
OKAY! Thats it! No, just kidding, I honestly underestimated how much the characters still need to go through so thats why I'm putting the ending into two parts, this being the first one, so the next one will offically be the last chapter of this story! So please review and tell me how I did and as I always say...
UNTIL NEXT TIME!
