Peter: "How about we settle this with a game of rock, leaf, claws?"
Leia: "Sounds good to me."
Humphrey: "Rock, leaf, claws?"
Leia: "Yeah. It's a game my pack invented. You use one your paws and you make it form rock, leaf or claws." As she was explaining, she was showing the rock (closed paw), leaf (a flat paw) and claws (paw with claws out) shapes of her paw. "The leaf beats the rock by covering it, the claws beat the leaf by slashing it and the rock beats the claws by breaking them."
Silver: "Interesting"
Leia: "Are you ready, Peter?"
Peter: "I'm always ready."
Peter and Leia: "One, two, three." As they counted, they were swinging their paws down with each syllable and Peter "threw" a leaf while Leia "threw" a rock.
Peter: "Yes. I won."
Leia: "OK, Peter. You can tell your story."
Peter: "Alright. So I'm from a pack that lives in Yosemite Park and you already know that in my pack Alphas are hunters, Betas are soldiers and Omegas are spies. However, my pack is the only pack in Yosemite. So, I was one happy Alpha Wolf living with my parents, having fun with my friends and being good friends with the leader."
They heard angry wolf noises and hits on a wall in the room where The Freak is being kept.
Humphrey: "What was that?"
Peter: "That was Drec, a rouge Wolf who used to be Leader of The Betas in my pack. He was envious of my leader's position that he tried to take it with force, but he failed and got banished from the pack. He tried to make his own by convincing members of my pack to join him but none of them agreed. So, he kept failing until he got captured by The Wolf Foundation. He got blades on his body, big claws, hands with claws and one of his eyes turned green."
Humphrey: "Oh my gosh. You just described a freak."
Peter: "Everyone in The Wolf Foundation is calling him The Freak, including us."
Humphrey: "OK. So, what about your life in the pack?"
Peter: "I was having good time with my best friends, Harry and Ned. Harry is an Omega and Ned is a Beta but he became the new leader of The Betas after Drec got banished. We were always hanging out after out duties as we were telling jokes, playing games and working out."
Humphrey: "Cool. What about your parents?"
Peter: "Well, my parents are Betas and they were proud of me for becoming an Alpha. We were the happiest family in Yosemite Park, at least that's what my pack has been saying."
Humphrey: "What are their names?"
Peter: "My father's name is Ben and my mother's name is May. My mother used to be close friends with Drec until his betrayal. And my father got killed by Drec, two years ago."
Humphrey: "I'm sorry about that."
Peter: "It's OK. He tells me that I should be brave when it comes to someone's death."
Humphrey: "OK. What about your leader?"
Peter: "Stephen? He is awesome. He's mature, serious and responsible. Actually I just remembered that he went to Jasper Park a few times and he became good friends with Winston. He talks about him from time to time."
Humphrey: "OK. So, how did you end up in The Wolf Foundation?"
Peter: "Well, our pack had too many wolf. So, some of us had to move to other places. And I was one of them, along with my mother and Harry. Half of the leaving crew was moving to Idaho so they could spare the humans' repopulation project we heard about. The other half was moving to other places where they can live as their own pack or joining other packs."
Humphrey: "And where were you going?"
Peter: "I decided to explore the world while my mother and Harry were traveling with the other wolfs. However, I got captured by The Wolf Foundation when I was about to leave. After I got transported, I became the wolf with spider abilities."
Humphrey: "Spider abilities?"
Peter: "Yeah. I can climb with all of my 8 legs, I can spit spider webs, I'm super strong and I can sense danger."
Humphrey: "So cool. But can you shoot webs from your butt?"
Peter: "Yeah but only when I'm nervous. Anyway, this is my story."
Humphrey: "OK Leia. It's your turn."
Leia: "OK. I come from a park named Yellowstone. In my pack, Alphas are soldiers, Betas are hunters and Omegas are advisors."
Humphrey: "Advisors?"
Leia: "Yeah. And like in Jasper Park there's more than one pack. Northern, Western, Southern, Eastern and my pack, The Central Pack."
Humphrey: "You have a Central Pack?"
Leia: "Yeah. Anyway, I had fun with my friends and family, and all packs in Yellowstone were living in harmony. Most of my friends were Omegas like me and some of them were from the other packs. I was having fun but I also wanted to go on an epic adventure one day. And that day finally came."
Peter whispered to Humphrey: "Here comes the interesting part."
Leia: "The leaders of my pack have two pups, one male and one female. However the female pup got kidnapped years ago by a rouge pack that is enemies with all packs in Yellowstone. My leaders sent their second-in-command to save the pup but he didn't return, neither did the pup or the rouges that kidnapped the pup, but the leader of rouges was one of them and since the rouge pack lost their leader, they moved to somewhere else."
Silver: "What does that have to do with your adventure?"
Leia: "I'm getting there. So, everyone in Yellowstone assumed that all of them are dead but I was wondering how could they all died at the same time. I had a feeling that there's something nobody knows. So, I asked my leaders to investigate this event. At first they refused but after a lot of begging, they finally agreed. I went to the place that was the rouge pack's territory, I was looking for clues but how could I find any since this place has been abandoned for years. But I didn't gave up and before I could continue, I got captured by The Wolf Foundation."
Humphrey: "I see. So that pup you were looking for, how did she look?"
Leia: "She had silver-gray and white fur, lavender eyes, and I think one of her eyes was covered by her hair. If she was or is alive she would be the same age as us."
Humphrey: "You just described me Lilly."
Leia: "What?"
Humphrey: "Your description of the pup matches Lilly."
Leia: "Could it be that Lilly is that pup?"
Humphrey: "Leia?"
Leia: "Sorry. We'll discuss this later. Anyway, The Wolf Foundation made me faster." And she showed her speed to Humphrey and Silver. "Stronger" She crushed a bone with her paw. "And with strong endurance."
Humphrey: "Cool"
Leia: "Yeah. Anyway this is my story."
Humphrey: "So, you two and Drec are the only wolves that ended up caught in The Wolf Foundation?"
Leia: "No"
Peter: "There was one more wolf."
Leia: "His name was Daniel. He was a long wolf who lost his parents when he was a teenager."
Peter: "He was the last wolf that The Wolf Foundation brought us before you."
Leia: "They tried to experiment on him but it didn't work out and he didn't survived."
Humphrey: "I'm sorry about this."
Leia: "I'm sure he's happy up there with his parents."
Silver: "Yeah. Well, now that we all know each other. Let's think about our way to get out of here."
Meanwhile at Jasper Park
It was night and Winston and Eve were sleeping in Kate and Humphrey's den but Stinky, Claudette and Runt couldn't sleep because they were worried about their parents. They started whispering to each other.
Stinky: "I'm worried about mom and dad."
Claudette: "Me too."
Runt: "I can't stop wondering what is going to happen to them."
Stinky: "What do you say we help mom find dad?"
Runt: "I agree. I'm sure that mom could use some help."
Claudette: "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go."
And so the pups left the den as Stinky was following his mother's scent and his siblings were following him.
