Notes: I'm really bad with saving reviews, aren't I? O.x Sorry about that. I'll TRY and remember to save them next time I'm online. Which would be whenever I post this...Yeah. O.o Anyway. :) You'll like this chapter, I think. First time you get to see the packs talk to each other. .- And we get to see how the alphas handle each other! Hehe. Hey. Are we not allowed to use asterisks? I thought I saw someone say that and I had a dream that all of my asterisks on my fanfics were replaced with 8s. Which is really creepy because I just realized that you use the 8 to make asterisks o.o I never noticed that before XD I just...did them o.o Weirdish. Yeah. Anyway. :) Read on and enjoy!

"I highly recommend that you don't refuse our offer, Kai. I cannot assure that we wont find our own ways of getting it. Less...pleasant ways..." The Demon pack's leader growled, baring his fangs in a hellish grin.
"Threaten me all you like, DemonFire. I'm not giving anything to you but an invitation to -leave-." Kai snarled, curling his lips back to display his own fangs. "GO."
"You will regret your refusal, Kai." DemonFire said, letting out a barking laugh.
"We don't care, DemonFire. Now LEAVE." Kai moved forward, the hackles along his neck and back rising.
"As you wish." DemonFire opened his massive wings and launched into the air, followed by his growling pack. The Demon wolves hovered ominously over the pack, staring down at them before they spread out in different directions. DemonFire went to the burned territory of the Scorched Lands pack and swooped down on the pack, howling. They didn't moved from where they stood, only glared up at him. But, soon enough, another Demon joined his alpha and they managed to drive the three-wolf pack into the Moonwatcher Valley.
Above the Mountain wolves, BlazingFury and ListlessWanderer, DemonFire's mate and beta female, circled above, harassing RavenWings and SkyHunter. Eventually, they, too, were driven from their side of the border into the Moonwatcher territory. It didn't take long before Kenny and Max's packs were forced into the Moonwatcher land as well.
"Maybe you will learn your lesson now, Kai. See, the lands around you belong to us now. No longer are you five separate packs, but you are one. Enjoy yourselves..." Before Kai could respond, the Demon wolves had vanished into the surrounding lands.
"Damnit!" Kai growled, turning to face Rei. The other alpha was glaring at him angrily.
"This is -your- fault." Rei said. "If you'd have given in, we wouldn't be stuck here!" Rei looked around at the gathered backs then back at Kai.
"That doesn't make it any better! The only place we'd have to go was to one of -your- territories! Besides, our land is the one place large enough to support this many wolves." Kai, reluctantly accepting the fact that he was stuck with them until they could find a way to get the lands back.
"If this is going to work, we'll have to establish ranks. There can't be more than one alpha." Kenny said, coming forward. Tyson and Max followed suit until the five of them were in a loose circle. "How shall it be decided?"
"A vote?" Max suggested.
"I have a larger pack. That would be unfair." Kai said.
"Good point." Max said, looking embarrassed. Rei, on the other hand, seemed slightly impressed that Kai had shot that idea down when it would have gone in his favor. It appeared that he had probably underestimated the other alphas...
"It would be easiest to fight." Tyson said.
"It would." Rei and Kenny agreed.
"Then we will do that. The alphas should fight first, to get that settled. Then we can see who wants to fight for the other ranks..." Kai said.
The other wolves nodded in agreement. "We'll fight two at a time, then? The one that isn't fighting will fight the first winner, and the winner of that will fight the winner of the other fight?" Kenny inquired.
"Yes." The others chorused.
"Who fights who?" Max asked.
"I'll fight Kai." Kenny offered.
"And I will fight Rei." Tyson said.
"So, the first winner fights Max?" Kenny asked.
"Yes." Kai said. The mixed wolf packs moved out of the way to make room for the fighting alphas. When Kai and Kenny were facing each other and Tyson and Rei were as well, Max counted down from five and the fights began.
Kai, not one to usually just jump in, stood there, watching Kenny. His eyes were locked on the forest wolf's front legs, waiting for the slightest twitch of muscle that might indicate movement. And he was ready when Kenny did choose the lunge. As the wolf came forward, Kai easily dodged him and spun around, slamming his muzzle against Kenny's neck and knocking him to the ground.
Kenny leapt back to his feet and lashed out at Kai, his fangs bared for attack.
Kai, having expected this, moved aside and struck out with his own fangs to grab the scruff of Kenny's neck and twist it, throwing him to the ground again so that Kai stood over him, snarling. Surprised that he'd been beaten so easily, Kenny bared his throat in submission and Kai stepped away, motioning to Max to come forward. Kenny counted off for them and, to Max's surprise, Kai leapt right into battle.
Meanwhile, Tyson was having trouble keeping up with Rei who was taunting him by leaping over his back every time he turned to find him. Due to the fact that Rei was a mountain wolf, he could jump unnaturally high. Spending his whole life leaping over boulders and rock walls had helped him. With a snarl of frustration, Tyson threw back his head in an attempt to grab Rei's belly. But Rei had expected the attack and he kicked him in the muzzle. Tyson yelped and moved away from Rei as the Mountain wolf landed and turned to face him.
"Nice try." Rei said, waving his tail in apparent amusement. "You don't get out much, do you?"
Tyson growled and lunged at him, expecting the other wolf to move out of the way. Instead, Rei lowered him self to the ground and lifted his head to grab Tyson's throat, pulling him the ground before rolling him onto his back and standing over him, teeth bared.
"Damnit." Tyson bared his throat, a signal that he was giving up. Rei snorted and stepped to away to find Kai waiting for him. Max and Kenny were standing aside, looking irritable.
"Ready?" Kai asked.
"Yes."
Kenny counted down and, when he was done, everyone was silent as the two wolves began the familiar act of circling each other cautiously. "Shall the defeated take the position as beta male?" Kai asked Rei as they continued to circle.
"I think so." Rei responded, his eyes never leaving Kai's. "They can decided how they want to take care of the rest."
"I agree." Kai and Rei stopped circling as if they'd agreed that they'd done enough laps. But neither of them wanted to attack first. A mistake would mean the loss of the alpha position. Despite this, Kai finally surged forward. Rei leapt over him, landing behind him and turned to face him as the other turned around.
"Didn't you learn from watching Tyson?" Rei asked him.
"I don't think so." Kai answered. Rei moved around him and Kai went to turn and face him. But Rei leapt over him from the side this time.
"Me neither."
For several minutes, Kai continued to try and turn towards Rei and Rei continued to leap over him. Until Kai finally saw his opening. It came when Rei leapt over him once again. As Rei was close to landing, Kai spun around to face him, pushing off the ground with his front paws to slam his shoulders into Rei's stomach.
Rei, caught unawares, fell on his side and wasn't able to get up before Kai was over him, teeth bared in another familiar display. This time a display of authority.
"You lied."
"I did."
"You had already decided how you'd take care of that."
"I had."
"You're good."
"Not really."
"Modest, too."
"Are we done yet?"
"Yes." Rei bared his throat and Kai gave it a brief nip to finalize his victory and he stepped away. He was immediately greeted by his original pack who licked his chin happily and rubbed against his side. Since Kai was now the leader of the entire group of wolves, he received a total of twenty-three licks under his chin and his own scent was mixed with that of the others as they took turns rubbing against him.
"Shall we take care of deciding the rest of the ranks?" Kenny asked as everything settled down.
"Might as well do it now." Kai said, gazing around at the reformed pack. "But will we still be the Moonwatchers? It doesn't seem right."
"No, it doesn't it." Rei agreed. "But what could we call it?"
"The Emecis Valley." RavenWings murmured. Rei looked at her.
"You mean..." SkyHunter trailed off, looking at her aunt. "It's not true, is it?"
RavenWings looked at the five wolves who were all former alphas. "I'm starting to think it is..." RavenWings whispered.
:) Oops. Looks like It's time to go watch hummingbirds. Oh, darn. I'm SO sorry! I never got to tell you what RavenWings and SkyHunter are talking about! 8Sighs8 That's too bad! Guess you'll just have to wait. Oh...Which reminds me...IB is on hiatus again. I thought DogsBody was due back on the 28 but it was due on the 20 so I had to give it back to my friend ;.; Really sorry...But, there's a good side. I wont be worrying about it now so I can finished up OE and Dranzer, update HoW when I'm supposed to, and try and regularly update United, WoD, Hesitating, and Communication :) Sorry. But thanks for reading and please review! Later!
I don't want to do it, but I think I should. -Deep breath- I think I have to delete IB. Not only because I'm not able to post like I'd like to but, also, it's technically plagiarism. The plot doesn't belong to me and I think there are a lot of time where I took something straight out of the book ;.; So, I'm sorry but I wont be able to continuing updating it and it'll have to be deleted...
