It is 9 a.m. and a man has just opened the gates of Pocket Park. This park just so happenstance contain the statue of a dog seen in the dream of a certain boy. As the man opens the gates he sees a German Shepherd carrying a duffel bag run out from behind him. The man's eyes grew wide. He blinked twice and scratched his head.

"There is no way I missed a dog that big last night," spoke the man. He looked again and the dog was still running up the road. The man then pulled out the small flask he was carrying in his pocket. He looked at it for a moment. He then proceeded to undo the top and proceeded to dump the contents from the bottle.

"I'm too old for this."

Meanwhile the German Shepherd had made it to an alley away from peering eyes. Aside from having the many questionable gazes due to the fact that you don't see a German Shepherd carrying a duffel bag, he was unharmed. The creature then transformed and Dean cracked his neck and stretched. He only felt a minor chest pain, and a bloody nose. It felt like a mosquito bite compared to if he turned from a wolf.

"Great, Tikanni was right," spoke Dean.

"Now I might not be able to shift period. I can do that. I just have to stay human."

Once he cleaned himself off, Dean then casually walked down the road and back to the park. He walked and sat down on the side. He sat there waiting for Drew. He sat until noon. He sat for so long that people started to leave him money on his bag. He didn't think he looked homeless. He pulled out his phone and flipped on the camera. He realized that he looked extremely dirty. His stomach then rumbled. He was not only dirty, he was hungry. He decided to do something about that. He went to a gas station and used a shower for truck drivers to wash himself. Dean quickly washed himself, and changed his clothes. He decided to go to a quick diner. He was in the mood for pancakes. He walked down the road. He soon found a diner he was looking for. While he was eating said breakfast, he got an idea. If Julius wasn't lying, he took Drew to a hospital. In order for Drew to be cared for in said hospital, she would have to have been admitted. She would have to have been put into the system. Since Dean's in San Diego, this made his job much easier. He decided to do some digging. He searched the nearest hospitals, and found several in his area. One thing Dean had learned with Tikanni, was how to hack into certain programs. His phone being made by Julius and his father, only made hacking easier. He bypassed all the security to all of the hospitals and came to a database. He typed in Drew's first name. An assortment of Drews came up. He then found something. Out of all the Drews, one stood out to him. She was admitted under the alias of Drew Kimball. She had fallen of a cliff at Oak canyon. She was taken to Sharp Memorial Hospital by an anonymous male who kept his identity hidden. She was treated and cared for, but was diagnosed with amnesia. She was 16 when admitted. Dean's heart sank as he began reading the next part. Drew was in a coma for three months. Dean quickly covered his mouth and looked away from the report. He was having fun with wolves while she was laying in a hospital bed not waking up. He took a breath and looked back at the report, and the doctor who was caring for her had left a note. It is a miracle this girl's bones are not broken. She fell fifteen feet on solid rock. Her bones aren't broken, she isn't even concussed, but she is still comatose. In all my years of research, this girl's diagnosis has baffled me. For three months she was in a coma, and miraculously she awoke with no memory aside from her name, Drew Kimball. Since she was a minor, and I was unable to contact any of her relatives, I had her taken by a social worker, and is now in the foster care system. I have good faith that she will be well taken care of. She's a fighter." That was all the doctor said on the matter.

Dean typed in several foster care names in the area and began hacking into their databases. He typed in Drew Kimball. He soon found her in a foster home not far from here. He had hope. He was going to get her out of that home and unlock her memories. He read further and his heart sank. Drew was already adopted. She had been adopted by a man. This man had a strange name. Ebbs Guerrero is the one who adopted Drew.

Dean felt an absolute pit in his stomach. He looked at his half eaten pancakes and pushed them away. He then paid for his meal. The waitress who took the cash looked at his table.

"Not that hungry, hun," she asked.

"Uh yeah," answered Dean. "I lost my appetite."

"Well, when you find it, come back and see us."

"Yes ma'am."

Dean had no idea what to do now. He began walking down the road. He needed to think. He thought better when walking. He then had a thought. He picked up his phone he went to his contacts and saw the name, Tikanni Akicita. He looked at the contact long and hard. A second opinion wouldn't be a bad idea. After a moment of looking at the phone, waiting for it to give him an answer, he had put it back in his pocket. He wasn't ready to confront Tikanni yet. He wasn't ready to confront any of them just yet. Dean pulled his phone back out to see the time. It was 3:00 P.M. Dean walked into an alleyway and sat down. He assessed his situation.

"Ok, I am in San Diego, California. I am trying to find my sister, so I can at least know she is ok. I may also be able to help her get her memories back. While I am doing this, I will most likely be hiding from my magical bodyguard, who is probably hunting me down. That is the mission. The mission has become more complicated due to two possible outcomes: 1, my illness and 2, Drew was adopted by Ebbs Guerrero. I don't even know who Ebbs Guerrero is!" Dean was silent for a little while.

"Ok, if I find out where Ebbs Guerrero is, then I find Drew. At least, that's how it is supposed to be when someone is adopted." Dean then smiled.

"Heck, that's how it worked for me." He joke backfired on him. His smile faded at the thought of the wolves he called family.

"Yeah that was how it went, and now I am trying to find Drew all by myself because I don't want to speak to them right now." Dean then began to flip through his phone. He was looking for any sort of information on Ebbs Guerrero.

Meanwhile, across town, A receptionist inside a very fancy hotel was reading a romance novel. She was 5'3, 21, had brunette hair, and reading glasses. Work was slow. Not a lot of people needed to check in and the only calls she was receiving were of the guests asking for numbers to room service, or to ask for other items. That all changed when A very large vehicle was pulling into the fancy hotel. A man that stood 6'5 with long black hair that was touching his chest and back stepped out of said vehicle and began to walk inside. He was Native American. He was in jeans, a black t shirt, and moccasins. He had Ray-Ban sunglasses on. He walked into the hotel and the receptionist didn't notice him. She was too enveloped in her novel. She was picturing what she was reading in her mind word for word.

"Vicky, I cannot love you... anymore," spoke a Spanish male voice. "Is it because I am a vampire," cried a Spanish female voice In the receptionist' mind. "No, it is not that. I have fallen in love...with someone else, a werewolf." Before the receptionist could get to the next page, the bell dinged, and she was snapped back into reality.

"I am so sorry, sir I was lost in my book," she looked at him and her eyes grew wide. "Oh it is no problem," spoke the man.

"I myself have gotten lost in my readings as well. I can't say I have ever read the book, "Supernatural Love Triangle." This man towered over the receptionist' 5'3 stature. She could see through his shirt that he was muscular.

"Well, I think it is a nice romance novel. Now, how may I help you, sir," she asked.

"I already have a reservation at this fine establishment," spoke the man.

"What is the name under?"

"Talbot, Lawerence Talbot." The woman recognized the name.

"Like the werewolf?"

"Exactly like it. My father liked the movie, and, since we already had the last name, he gave me the first."

"That is so cool. I like that."

"Thank you, I am glad someone thinks so, and might I just like to say that you have a very lovely name too, Justina." Lawerence Talbot read her name tag

"Why thank you. Let me just type your name in here and find your room." She adjusted her reading glasses and began to type in a name. Lawerence Talbot's name popped up and the room was on the first floor. It was the biggest room on the first floor.

"Ok, Mr. Talbot, I have your room ready for you. All you need to do is pay for it, and I'll give you the key." She tallied up the price and Mr. Talbot paid for everything in cash.

"Here is your room keys, Mr. Talbot. If there is anything you need, have any questions, or just need to talk, I am just a call away." Justina then winked at Mr. Talbot.

"Thank you, Justina. You have yourself a great rest of your day." The man went outside and got in his vehicle. He parked by the window, that lead to his room. He then came back inside and then he went into his room. The room was very large. It had one bed, a couch that folded into a second bed, a closet, a TV, and a bathroom. Lawerence Talbot pulled out all the stops for his room. He was here for business, but he at least wanted a bed to sleep in. If he had too, he could've slept in his vehicle. He decided against that idea, for it would be crowded. He then did the strangest thing. He walked to the window and he opened it. It lead to the parking lot, and to his vehicle. What he also noticed about his chosen room was that fact that, out of the whole hotel, this was the only public room with a blind spot. This room had no security cameras looking around it. Meaning, Lawerence Talbot can do as he pleases without anyone noticing on the big wig security system. Lawerence then walked out of the window, and did a quick look around. He was making sure he was right. Sure enough, the camera was there, but Lawerence's hotel window, and vehicle were not visible to it. Lawerence knew this, for he had hacked into said security cameras when he booked the room. That was over an hour ago. Lawerence opened the back of his vehicle.

"Ok, go into the window, up two, up two," spoke Lawerence. One by one, grey wolves began jumping out of the car and through the window. Once all the wolves were in, Lawerence hopped back into the room, looked at the room.

"Ok, headcount, and a much needed briefing," spoke Lawerence. "Kate, Humphrey, Stinky, Runt, Claudette, Tyson, Willow." Lawerence then pointed to himself. "Tikanni."

"I thought you were Lawerence Talbot," spoke Humphrey.

"Lawerence Talbot is one of the many many many names I use so that people don't know I am Tikanni Akicita," spoke Tikanni.

"Why do you hide from others with fake names," asked Kate.

"I did a lot of things for my leaders," spoke Tikanni. "I hold a lot of secrets, and I'd prefer that I would not be tracked. I don't want any of my personal information to be leaked to the public."

"Didn't you protect these people," asked Stinky. "How would they not know you?"

"I did all of my protecting from the shadows. I let the soldiers who are known to the world have all the credit. Also, there is more than one type of soldier. I protected my territory from inside and outside enemies. There are the police that is supposed to be protecting smaller territories in the bigger territory. We have to be careful because we don't want them to ask us any question. Actually, I don't need them to ask me any questions. If they asked you guys any questions, they would look like idiots. They will be wearing black and blue uniforms." Tikanni then pulled his phone out and showed everyone a picture of a police uniform. "Avoid these humans at all costs. Do not look at them, do not sniff them, do not move towards then, and whatever you do, do not, I repeat, do not bite them. They have guns, and you look like wild dogs. They will shoot to kill. There are not many wolves here than what there are in Jasper. Another thing about this briefing, I will find Dean, alone. The last thing I need to one of you being captured by a dog catcher."

"Dog catcher," asked Claudette.

"Yes, dog-catcher. A dog catcher is someone who captures stray dogs, though ,since you are wolves, you'll be considered a wolf-dog. They might bring in an exotic animal controller. I really don't need that. You guys will stick with me at all times. I am going to try and keep you guys hidden as much as possible. Whatever you do, do not leave this room under any circumstances without me knowing. If you need to go to the bathroom, tell me. I will walk you out to a private spot, and make sure you are hidden. If you are hungry, I will provide everyone with food and water. I think I covered everything I wanted to in this briefing. Do any of you have any questions?"

"Yes I do," spoke Kate.

"Yes Kate?"

"Why are we staying here? We should be looking for Dean."

"San Diego is a big territory to find one person. We need a place to stay while I am finding Dean. This is where my base will be set up, until I can find something more private. I will find your pup. I promise you that, and when I make a promise, I don't ever break them."

Kate was silent for a moment she then looked at Tikanni.

"Thank you Tikanni."

"You are welcome. Any more questions?"

"I have one," spoke Tyson.

"What is it Tyson?"

"When do we get to eat?"

"I will go and get the food right now. Just stay here and I will be back." With that, Tikanni let the wolves to their own devices. Tikanni, before he left, put up a no disturbance sign on the door, and he left the hotel. His first stop was a quick pet shop. He then grabbed what he needed there, and he began to think about what he and his cohorts will eat. "Ok, meat joints, meat joints," spoke Tikanni. He searched up the menu, and he soon found a restaurant that had meat on the menu. He drove there and went inside. The waitress seated him, and asked what he would like to drink.

"Water please, and I already know what I would like to order. "

"Ok sir," The waitress grabbed her pen and notepad. "Order when ready."

"Ok, I will have eight to go carriers. In each of those to go boxes I need four T-bone steaks, two smoked sausages, and some Salmon. In one of those, I would like some fries. That is all."

"Um, sir," spoke the waitress. "I don't know if we can-"

"I'll pay in cash." Spoke Tikanni.

"Right, I will get that to the chef, and I will have your water in a moment."

"Thank you."

She then proceeded to take the order back, and a few minutes later, she came back with the water and check.

"We are getting to you order right this moment. It may take a little bit."

"Yes ma'am, I understand. Take all the time you need. If you'll wait a moment, I'll have the check paid."

"Ok." Tikanni then pulled out his wallet, and began to pull out a lot of money. He gave her enough to pay for the meals, and she handed him his water.

"Thank you so much." Tikanni then thought of something. No, he thought of someone. He then dialed in a number into his phone. It rang for a few times finally someone answered.

"I don't know how ya got this number, but I will find you and do unspeakable things that would make the devil run if ya call it again," threatened a Texan voice.

"You gave me the number, Tex," spoke Tikanni.

"Wolfman?"

"It has been a long time Tex ."

"You're telling me. I haven't heard your voice since..." Tex didn't finish the sentence.

"Since the incident," spoke Tikanni.

"Well, what can I do for ya."

"Do you have a safe house in or near San Diego."

"Why is the wolfman in San Diego?"

"I'm taking care of business. I just need to use it just in case. Why is Tex asking so many questions?"

"Relax Partner, I am just tryin to see if you need backup. I ain't no informant. I left a few days after you." Everyone left and we're laying low. You know I wouldn't lie to ya. Your getting the information now, Wolfman."

"Thanks Tex, and, you know, you are the only person I would let call me that."

"Just like you're the only guy I'd let call me Tex."

"I got the coordinates in now, thanks Tex. I owe you."

"Your darn tootin. Just have a drink or two with me, and we'll call it even."

"You got it. I'll pick the location."

"Sounds like a plan, later Wolfman."

"Later Tex."

After about another hour or so, Tikanni had eight to go boxes, and was out the door. He raced back to the hotel.

Before he went into his room, he stopped by a vending machine and got several bottles of water. He then opened the door to his room, and glanced at the carnage that had commenced in his absence. To his utter surprise, everyone was asleep. They must have been tired from the trip.

"I am here," announced Tikanni. "And I bring food."

Everyone in the room rose up from their slumbers and immediately smelled the food in Tikanni's hands. They never smelled anything so good before. They began drooling.

"That smells so good," said Ty.

"What is it," asked Stinky.

Tikanni then began to hand out to go boxes for everyone. He went to his bag and pulled out a bag labeled MEDICAL SUPPLIES.

He then pulled out some pills and placed them on the steaks in a to go box. He then handed that one to Willow.

"Your medicine is on top of yours, Willow." She just glared at him, and then looked at her food.

"Ok, there is 4 steaks, 2 smoked sausages, and a salmon." He then went into his pet shop bag and pulled out water bowels for everyone. He poured the water bottles in the bowels, and then Tikanni began digging into the food himself. He was looking at his phone while he ate. While he was eating. Someone decided to make conversation.

"Hey Tikanni," asked Humphrey.

"Yes?"

"What is a werewolf?"

"What?"

"A werewolf. when you said your fake name, the female said "like the werewolf," so, what is a werewolf."

"It is a creature that has both human and wolf features. They are kinda like what Dean turned into. It is his shankaha."

"His what," spoke everyone except Kate.

"His half wolf half human form," said Tikanni. "Be it a very bad version of the werewolf."

"So what is a very good version of the werewolf," asked Tyson.

"The best werewolf I can remember is from a story one of my superiors once told me. His name was Jean', and he was a teacher of mine. He was born in a place very far from here called France. He would always tell us stories of his ancestors and their adventures in France. On this occasion for one of Jean's stories, we wouldn't go to sleep. We were about 11 or 12 at the time, and he came into our bunks. He said "pourquoi ĂȘtes-vous debout si tard Petits Loups. He would always scold us in his native tongue. My comrades and I learned most of our French from his scoldings." This made Tikanni and everyone else chuckle a little. Tikanni took a bite of his dinner and continued with the story. "What he said was, "Why are you up so late Little Wolves?" To which we all replied with the same old excuses. We weren't tired, or we couldn't sleep. He pulled up a chair and said "How about a story?" We all gathered around him and he began to tell of one of his oldest ancestors. He was born and raised in France. His name was Gabriel. Gabriel grew up in a smaller part of France called Ge'vaudan. At this point and time, there was something in the woods killing men. Gabriel's father told him to never go into the woods for the beast will get him. One morning, Gabriel was walking home from school, when he heard a twig snap. He looked and saw a wolf in the bush. This wolf was big. It stood taller than any wolf seen today. It then walked out of the bush, and it did the most strangest thing. It stood up on its two back paws. It stood taller than any man. Its fur was black, and the eyes of the creature were green. It had very large teeth. It then took a step and reached out with a clawed hand. It was about to turn Gabriel into a snack. Then, without warning, a shit rang out and the beast fell on its side. Gabriel's father had met his son at the trail and witnessed the confrontation. He fired at the beast with his musket handgun. Gabriel quickly ran to his father's side and watched the body of the beast lie dead on the ground. For a moment, Gabriel thought his father killed the beast, but they were mistaken, as the beast stood with not even a scratch on its black fur. It ran into the woods to never be seen again. I remembered this story and eventually I found time and I drew what I thought was the beast of Ge'vaudan. I came up with this." Tikanni then pulled out a folded up paper from his wallet. He showed everyone with drawing and what they saw was a creature unlike any other. It was depicted walking like a wolf, as well as walking like a man. It had black fur, green eyes, and large canine teeth.

"There are other creatures called the Beast of Ge'vaudan, and there is even a statue depicting one, but I showed this to Jean' and he believes this is the beast that Gabriel saw."

"Do you believe it," asked Runt.

"I believe that Gabriel saw something that day, and his father shot at it. Wether it was a werewolf, or just a big black wolf, I can't say. These stories get lost in context when they are passed down from generation to generation, so some stuff might have been changed when the story was passed down. Maybe Jean' told us the story, so we would go to sleep."

"Well Tikanni," said Kate. "That was a wonderful story, but it is getting dark, and now that we ate our meal, I think it's time for bed, we'll search for Dean tomorrow."

Tikanni looked out the window and saw that it was dark.

"Right you are Kate," spoke Tikanni. "It is time for bed, and tomorrow we will begin the search for Dean." With that, Tikanni turned off the lights and saw everyone bed down. Once he was sure everyone was asleep, he too went to the bed, and let sleep take over.

"It was a few hours after this occurred that someone began to dream. This someone was reliving a nightmare. "Tikanni" screamed a male voice. "Tikanni" screamed another male. This one sounded younger. "Run Tikanni," spoke a female. "hide Tikanni, said a third male voice. These voices continued screaming commands. "Help me Tikanni," Spoke a younger male voice. "Get up Dog," roared an angry male voice. "I love you Tuffy," rasped a female voice. Images began appearing quickly with the voices, and finally Tikanni yelling at the sky. He looked at his surroundings and he was in a forest. Fresh snow was on the ground. He then heard a noise, he turned and saw a pure black wolf with one brown eye, and one blue eye. The wolf then turned his head and Tikanni looked in the direction the wolf was looking towards. Tikanni's eyes grew wide at the sight. Dean was standing in the middle of the forest. Tikanni looked at the wolf. "What are you telling me?" The scenery then changed and Tikanni was now in an open field. It was raining like cats and dogs. Tikanni knew this place. "No, why have you brought me here," roared Tikanni. The wolf then snarled and growled at Tikanni. "I don't know what you are trying to tell me." The wolf whined at him. It then brought him back to Dean standing in the forest. Tikanni was utterly confused. He walked over to Dean's body. Dean was oblivious to Tikanni . He put a hand on Dean's shoulder and looked him in the eye.

"Dean?"

"I...I-" rasped Dean.

"What?"

"I'm sorry. I...I lost."

"No, you haven't lost anything yet."

"I lost it."

"Buddy, what did you lose."

"I lost it."

Dean continued to mutter something he lost, and Tikanni then looked at the furry companion. "What are you showing me?" The wolf just looked at him. He then heard something. He turned his head and saw something dreadful. He saw another wolf, but this one was different. It was big, real big. It's fur was jet black. It had eyes of crimson. "You." Hissed Tikanni. The wolf with a brown and blue eye snarled and snapped its jaws at the red eyed wolf. The wolf then did the unthinkable. The black wolf stood on two legs. It's front paws began to morph and it began to grow in size. Tikanni was looking at a spitting image of his drawing of the Beast of Ge'vaudan. This monster of a creature was standing 9 feet tall. It then looked at Tikanni and the wolf and snarled. Tikanni attempted to use some of the new tricks he learned from Waya and Dean's spell books, but nothing happened. "Just like the last one," stated Tikanni. The beast then turned his attention to Dean, and it smiled with a menacing toothy grin. "No! I won't let you take him. You won't take anyone from me Again!"

The black wolf with a blue and brown eye snapped it's jaws and Tikanni ran to confront the beast. Tikanni went low, and took one of the beasts legs. It fell forward and it caught itself with its clawed hands. The wolf had begun biting the other leg of the beast. The beast then kicked the wolf away and Tikanni jumped on the beasts back. It stood to its full height and Tikanni tried to put the beast in a headlock. The beast was trying to grab him, and just as it was about to, the wolf lunged for the beast and bit into the beasts arm. "You won't take him," huffed Tikanni. "I won't let you." The beast the grabbed the wolf and threw it into a tree. Tikanni then yelled as he felt a sharp pain in his ribs. The beast the grabbed him, and it slammed him into the ground multiple times. Tikanni couldn't see it, but he heard yelps and whimpers. He was then thrown to the ground and pinned with the clawed hand of the beast. The beast let out a snarl and looked Tikanni in the eye. It then looked at the one thing it came for. It got off of Tikanni, and slowly sauntered to the boy. "No, Dean!" Tikanni tried to get up, but his body was too beaten to do anything. The wolf yelped, but it couldn't get up. "Please don't," begged Tikanni. "Dean, Run! Run and get out of here!"

"I lost..." muttered Dean. The beast then ran at Dean with snapping jaws. Tikanni reached his hand out for Dean and he screamed.
