Everest began to scream.
"ENOUGH!" a voice shouted.
The 3 look back to see Marshall.
The others were with him.
"Let her go." Marshall said.
"Awww. Looky here. Here to play hero eh." Goldie asked.
"Now." Marshall repeated. "Let Everest go."
"And if we dont?" Maria asked.
"Then you die. Just like Kat." Rocky said.
"Ooooohhhhh. I'm shaking. I'm scared." Blackie mocked.
"You should be." Chase shouted. "What you've done. You've murdered innocent people and pups. You killed law enforcement. You...killed...SKYE! As well as Zuma and Katie. You should be scared."
"This is going to be fun." Maria said. She grinned and smashed her paw into Everest side once more.
Snarling, Marshall rushed at the three but tripped and fell flat on his face.
"Clumsy as always aren't you Marshall?" Maria said.
"You cant even take us down without tripping on thin air, how do you suppose you'll protect her?" Blackie said.
"You forgot about us." Aqua said.
"You know. Chase was right. You DONT belong in the town." Ryder said.
"You're stupid, worthless, and you only cared about yourself." Chase said.
"How does it feel?" Lily asked. "The pain you're feeling now? That's what Everest feels."
"You better stop!" Goldie said.
"Stupid, worthless, stupid, worthless." They began to chant.
Snarling the three rushed at them.
A battle ensued. A lengthy fight.
"Maria bit Ryder leg. Chase ambushed her.
Lily and Goldie were locked in each other's paws snarling.
Blackie rushed at Morgan. Her weight knocked him down. She struggled to reach his neck. She was getting closer. Her teeth inched and inched to his jugular.
Suddenly a shot rang out. Blackie gasped, then went limp.
Morgan threw her off him. Looked up to see Reid, his gun smoking.
"One down." Reid muttered. He spit on Blackie's corpse.
Goldie was being overpowered by Aqua and Rocky.
Goldie fought viciously before Lily grabbed her throat and ripped it out.
The Howloween Hounds were dead...for good.
Chase and Maria were still going at it.
"How does it feel to lose someone you love?" Maria snarled. She tackled Chase and held him down.
"You took Kat away from me. I took Skye away from you." Maria said. "An eye for an eye, as people say"
Using his last ounce of strength, Chase bucked sending her flying.
She went over the edge. But grabbed on with her claws.
Chase bent down but could barely reach.
The others started forward but stopped at Chase's words.
"Maria grab my paw." Chase barked.
"Why should I?" Maria said.
She started to slide further.
She thought for a second, then her eyes lit up.
She grabbed his paw. He attempted to pull her up.
"No." Maria said. "Never.
She grinned. Then before Chase could move shoved herself away from the cliff, pulling him with her.
"CHASE!" Ryder screamed. He rushed to the edge. But he was too late.
Chase screamed on the way down before being swept away.
Maria had won at the cost of her life. She had avenged her husband death.
Ryder began to cry and fell to his knees.
He had lost his most beloved pup. He lost some of his family. He lost...part of his heart.
