Chapter 8: Pack Trouble

The following day, Kipo and the group stake out the old observatory from a distance, carefully watching two wolfs mutes in turtlenecks guard and patrol the area, the group hiding in bushes as they figure out a way inside.

"This is a bad idea." Wolf rebuked.

"You've been saying that all day." Kipo stated.

"Because it's a bad idea." Wolf insisted, crossing her arms in a huff.

"Well, we're already here, so what's the plan?" Kipo asked, Wolf sighing in defeat.

"Right, Mandu and Dave will distract the guards, lead them away while the rest of us sneak inside, use the telescope and leave before the wolves finish their meal." Wolf explained.

"What? Why does it have to be Mandu and me?!" Dave argued, getting an agreeing squeal from Mandu who glared at Wolf.

"Can't we just walk up to them and ask? You did say Kipo saved their lives." Spike mentioned.

"Yeah, but we also lied to them, broke their telescope and blew them up with explosive nectar." Benson listed with his fingers.

"…..yeah, I vote for Wolf's plan." Spike deadpanned, getting a shocked look from Dave and Mandu.

"Yes, it does seem to be the most logical solution, doesn't it brother?" A voice advised from behind the group, everyone slowly turning their heads with fearful eyes to see two Mute-Wolves in black turtlenecks smiling down at them, one with dark blue fur while wearing a grey blazer and was grinning wickedly whereas the second wolf had light blue fur and was wearing a white blazer and glasses which he adjusted as he showed a friendlier smile.

"Oh, I agree, if only they weren't so loud when discussing it." The dark-furred wolf grinned as more pack members revealed themselves from the bushes.

"Billions! And Billions! Small world, am I right." Kipo nervously laughed.

"Wrong, its 510.1 million km² in surface area." Good Billions corrected.

"And 12,742 km in diameter." Bad Billions growled, "Weren't you meant to be the smart one?"

"Wow, you guys weren't joking about them." Spike says while standing up and brushing the dirt off him, "Billions and Billions, right? I'm Spike, look I need to use your telescope to help-"

"You're asking 'us' to take 'them' to our telescope, after the all the trouble they caused us!" Good Billions snarled.

"You sent our research back by MONTHS!" Bad Billions barked, bearing his teeth at Wolf and Kipo.

"Yes. But as scientists, isn't it 'your' duty to aid those who wish to learn the secrets of the universe, no matter who or what they are." Spike argued, getting the Wolves to exchange looks between them.

"We only allow scholars to enter, Kipo has proven herself to be a being of knowledge. You and especially the others have shown much to be desired." Good Billions countered, fixing his glasses before taking notice of Spikes toy rifle, "What is that?" the wolf pointed at the toy with Spike taking it off to show them.

"Is that a flash circuit from a camera?" Bad Billions questioned, tracing the wires with his claw.

"Umm, yeah. I'm using the capacitor in the foam darts to-"

"To cause an electrical discharge. Hmm, Creative." Good Billions admired, "But not nearly enough to give you a pass." He finished with Bad Billions bearing his teeth.

"W-well, I'm good with wiring. Can just about fix anything." Spike assured with a forced smile, causing the wolves to restrain themselves.

"Anything you say?" Bad Billions mused doubtfully, glancing at his brother.

"What about a tesla coil?" Good Billions wondered.

"S-sure, defiantly!" Spike lied, "But if I do, you need to let us use the telescope….and not eat us." He quickly added.

"Deal." Good Billions agreed, shaking Spikes hand, "However, Jolene must lose the skin. She's earned our packs respect for staying a step ahead of us during the hunt, but we will not allow such….uncivilized garments."

"Not happe-"

"Done!" Kipo interrupted Wolf, Kipo nudging Wolf who only groaned before reluctantly removing her cloak and hangs it on a tree

"Very well, this way." Good Billions gestured with Bad Billions walking alongside him while the rest of the pack surrounded them as they led the group inside the observatory.

"You do know how to fix a tesla coil, don't you?" Kipo whispered to Spike.

"How should I know? I don't even remember if I've ever seen one before, but how hard can it be?" Spike shrugged before noticing Bad Billions glancing at them over his shoulder, grinning at them until the pack stopped in their tracks.

"The Tesla coil is down the hall. The rest of your pack will remain here, under close supervision." Good Billions stated.

"This way, Human." Bad Billions ordered, leading Spike down the hall with Good Billions, Spike glancing back to see Kipo watching him with a concerned look before the doors closed. Spike soon being led down a hall with pictures of wolves with the name Billions carved into the frames."

"Billions, is it a family name?" Spike nervously asked, trying to strike up a conversation with the wolves.

"Something like that." Bad Billions grinned wolfishly before the three of them stopped in front of a glass window with a caged fence against it, seeing a large orange traffic cone with a metal ball on the other side.

"That's your tesla coil?" Spike doubted, feeling a little underwhelmed with its appearance.

"It's much more impressive when functional." Good Billions explained.

"So it's best you get it working as soon as you can." Bad Billions grinned, being sure to show off his fangs.

"R-right." Spike stuttered, slowly stepping inside through the gate and approaches the tesla coil, seeing two cables connecting to the base of the primary coil, Spike following them along the ground until finding the resistor and the transistor and to Spikes surprise, he knew what was wrong.

"When was the last time you guys did repairs?"

"Last week which is when the coil stopped working." Good Billions stated, "Why?"

"You got the wires mixed up. This one is meant to be connected to the resistor while this one should be connected to the transistor." Spike explained, unplugging the cables and reconnecting them in their proper places before leaving the cage and pulling the lever switch, causing the tesla to start releasing arcs of blue electricity in the room.

"I-it was that simple, how did we miss that!" Good Billions exclaimed, adjusting his glasses.

"Sometimes people overthink things and miss the simple solutions." Spike clarified, the quote sounding familiar to him.

"Well, it seems we should honour our end of the agreement." Bad Billions huffed.

"Not so fast, I've got an idea that could entertain us both." Spike offered, "You interested?"

"….Perhaps, what would you require?" Good Billions asked.

"Benson."

-Well I'm dead (great name by the way)

I can't draw to save my life so if you're willing to provide art that would be amazing

-Mangocat

I KNOW! Why couldn't they introduce the mutagen back into the animals, they put the mutagen in Kipo, the cure was made from Kipo and the vaccine was made from Kipo….I don't know how medicine works
