Hey guys today I'm introducing a brand new story! It's only a start and I'm curious to see where this leads, hopefully you enjoy and let me know if you would love to see more chapters coming soon. As of right now, let's introduce our new character, Butch!

Chapter I: First Blood

A dark, nightly figure swept though the bushes, stalking his prey. It's deep orange eyes scanning its food, prowling inches and inches toward it. One sudden mistake, one false step and his prey is gone. He dug his claws in the dirt, clamping himself for stability. He examined the lonesome deer, peacefully grazing the grass. The wolf now stood less than five feet away from it.

He took the chance and pounced, biting down on the neck, hard until the bone snapped. Ah yes. The sweet satisfying snap of the vertebrae, and that leaves you with days of food. The wolf cleaned up his meal, and carried the remains of it on his way home.

His name is Butch. A black-charred colored wolf, covering his whole body from tail to snout. Deep orange eyes, somewhat reddish with a tint of yellow. He displayed a large, hunky figure, larger than an average sized wolf. He was a somewhat middle age wolf, a little older, but he doesn't let his age fool his enemy. His dark figure made him stand out in the bright daylight, so he tends to use his advantage for stealth and sneak attacks. Butch lives in Canada, in the very deep and secluded woods not far from Jasper, with his wife and son by his side. Butch is notorious for many sightings across human encounters, but he tries his best to avoid them. Not because he's afraid, but he doesn't want the attention. Not much wolves encounter him either, when they do they either flee or have unwanted business against him. Not much is known about his past, although he does have a younger brother named Hutch.

Hutch and Butch grew together, ever since their parents split up and left them abandoned, but Butch took the hard path. He joined many rogue gangs and packs with dark history, which made him very Violent and Dangerous. Fortunately Hutch found the good path, he was retrieved by Winston when he was a teen, and has been in his side ever since. To this day, the two brothers are rarely seen together again.

Butch is a former member of many rogue packs across Canada. He was a highly dangerous and respected wolf, and his ways were extremely violent. He looked one day and saw that he wanted better, he wanted Freedom. So he fled, he ran away from the gang and never returned. The rogue packs were furious and outraged, so to this day they're still looking for him dead or alive. Butch later found love when he was a lone wolf, and decided to have a family together and remain hidden. And so on, Butch's biggest regret in his life was abandoning his brother, and joining the Rogues.

Butch has always been the shadow figure, and comes out when he's ready to strike back. There's a reason he holds the name Butch, his aggressive and demeaning manner, strong brute strength, excellent tracker, smart hunter, and a master of tactic and stealth. He lives for the survival and support for his family. Family is the most important thing in his life, and if anyone takes that away from him, he stalks them until the end of their days. Never get on his bad side, or he will be your worst Nightmare. When a Lone Wolf has nothing to lose, that makes him the dangerous one.

The large black wolf blocks the entrance of the bright sun in the den, and drops the carcass on the ground. A silver wolf layed on the ground of the den, playing with a wolf cub. Her eyes were blue and she had a rather slim and slender appearance. The cub has a mixture of grey and black fur, and orange eyes like his pops. Butch smiled at his family and they did the same when he entered.

"Dinner is served.." Butch said with a wink, and half smile. His little boy, Ben runs up to him and hugs him.

"Hey dad!" He squeezes him tightly. "Hey champ, how'ya doin? Keeping your mother company for me?" Butch replied looking down at his son.

"Like never before" Ben said smirking, as They both chuckled.

"My boy have some food." Butch replied ripping him a piece of flesh. Butch day down by his wife and dug his head on the floor in exhaustion.

"Tired? I thought we were just getting started for tonight, isn't that right?" Talia asked seductively, brushing his musky black fur with her soft, warm tongue.

"Oh yea, not tonight baby sorry.." Butch looked at her, bringing her in a nuzzle and kissing her gently.

"Save the rest for later dinners already gone cold.." Talia giggled. The three of them dug in their food and enjoyed the meat.

"Howzzr dzy?" Butch muffles out to her, with a mouthful of food.

"Hmm?" Her ears perked up.

"What?"

"I got none of that.." She giggled to him, making him dumbfounded.

"Oh, how was your day?"

"So far great. Ben and I had trouble finding our way back home after a long hike but yea" She said making him chuckle.

"It's a small world, but at the same time you never know what lurks our there. Be careful Babe" Butch told her, looking into her eyes.

"I know. There's something I've been wondering.."

"What? Is it about Ben?" Butch took a guess.

"Well, Yea actually. Just look at him and tell me if you see something different.." Talia motioned to Ben, eating peacefully. They know that

"Yea he does seem lonely, it would be lovely to have pups this time around but I don't think it's the right time Talia..." Butch sighed.

"I know, but wouldn't it be nice to have other wolves around? You know, for Ben?"

"Are you saying pups, Talia?" Butch smirked at her, she giggled and scooted closer.

"No babe I meant better company for Ben, and for us too."

"Y-you saying you wanna join a Pack?" Butch's ears perked up, making sure he heard what she just said. Talia shrugged and took a deep breath.

"I-I'm not saying that, it's a suggestion..maybe some time in-"

"No. No packs or other wolves, we don't need to be led into starvation and war under a ruler, where's the freedom in that?"

"Butch hear me out-"

"Talia, Look at me. I've seen the horror that happens out there, and I don't want to risk you guys into this... I was lucky I found hope, and a loving family." Butch nuzzled her neck soothing her gently, she purred softly.

"What horrors, that Ben could actually have a normal life? Honey we are more than safe here, just think about the future of our child. He could be safer in a pack."

"Talia, I've made my answer. No and it's final." Butch demanded, loosing his temper slightly. Talia knows he can be short tempered, but that's because he's really protective.

"Is it because you don't want to see your brother again?"

"Talia please-"

"You haven't seen him in years, why is that?"

"Tal-"

"What harm could possibly be done?!" Talia's head popped up and stood over her husband.

"DEATH is what could be Done! Don't tell me what's right or wrong you hear me woman?!" He barked at her, she coward back down and looked at Ben, who showed fear and cuddled by her mother. He dug his head in her furry chest, Talia looked in disbelief at her Husband, he has never yelled at her before. Butch sighed and looked down, realizeijg what he just did.

"D-dad?..?" Ben said softly looking up to his Father, sticking his head out from his mother's chest. Butch was ashamed to look at him, and felt sorry to put his family in this.

"I-I'm sorry honey, I didn't mean to get so defensive. You too son. My temper can get out of hand, I didn't mean to yell"

"Go to bed Ben it's getting late" Talia said not taking her eyes of Butch. Ben went to his bed in the corner of the den, avoiding the outburst his Father showed. Butch calmed down and sat by his wife, he put his paw onto hers and squeezed gently.

"I know what it's like out there, Talia. Out there is no play area for Ben. There are wolves who's hearts don't change, and I've seen the blackest hearts of any wolf, and some of them were my friends..." Butch Calmly said, Talia laid her head onto his shoulder.

"Hutch isn't the reason I'm not willing to go. It's here, I'm afraid to leave this place behind. If we leave, we won't stay under cover for long you understand? And I've seen wolves and humans far worse than I've imagined. They kill for the sport, and I can't let that happen to you. As of right now, this is the safest place to stay. I'm sorry I've never told you, but we are in far more danger than in the Pack, and it's more dangerous to leave this place..." Butch said looking into her aqua blue eyes, and nuzzling her.

"I-I'm sorry I irked you. I just want what's best for Ben.."

"I know dear, I know. I do too. But at least he's safe with us." Butch nuzzled her neck, calming her down. She moaned slightly and kissed his wet nose.

"Butch?"

"Hmm?"

"Have you ever wanted to see Hutch again?"

"Of course. Ever since we split up when our parents left, I've never been more curious. I've seen him here and there a couple times, but never found the joy of being with him in a pack. I just prefer the wild, peace and freedom you know what I mean?"

"Yea, I bet he still thinks about you too. I'm sure he misses you..." Talia said soflty to him, Butch scoffed.

"Yea right. He thinks I betrayed him, I look back and I see that I've done so much harm. I wish I'd see him again but now is not a good time.."

"I understand, I'm sorry for earlier I didn't mean to-"

"That was my fault honey. You never deserved that, I am just a big bad wolf after all." Butch said putting his paw on her chest.

"No hun, You're just a little bit crazy" She teases him, he chuckled and licked her ear.

"If you say so Talia."

"Mmmm, Goodnight my love."

"Goodnight dear.." Butch kisses her head, and they both dozed to sleep.

The Next Day...

Butch woke up in a flash, getting up immediately. His heads been messing with him, like some kind of post traumatic stress he's been dealing with for a while. Maybe Talia was right about him being crazy.

"Is everything okay dad?" Ben asked him, who to his surprise he had just woken up also.

"I'm alright kiddo, why are you up at this hour?" Butch said laying down, staring at the den ceiling.

"I can't sleep, I've been up all night.."

"Is this becuase of last night?" Butch said looking at his son, he looked away for a brief second.

"Hey Ben. There's nothing going wrong between you and your mother, it was just a little argument that's all. Although I am sorry for acting out of hand, your old man is just a little crazy sometimes..." He chuckled, patting his son on the head. Ben smiled at him dearly.

"Yea, but you're a cool and funny crazy, Wolf. Not a mean, angry crazy wolf" Ben said making Butch chuckle.

"Yea, sure."

"Mmm, looks like someone woke me up early also.." Talia said getting up stretching, walking to her mate nuzzling him.

"How'd you sleep, honey?"

"Good, a little worked up from last night but I'm good" She giggled licking his nose.

"Yea, just stay put I'll go grab some food.."

Just as Butch got up and walked out the den he heard a strange noise from outside, like some large animal approached. Butch looked sternly from out the den, trying to keep whatever is out there away from him and his family.

Out the large bushes came a large dark brown wolf, along with four other wolves. Butch immediately recognized this wolf, and so did the wolf recognize Butch. Butch wasted no second and charged at him, he rammed him on the ground but got tackled by two others. The brown wolf got up and they all beat Butch to the ground, kicked him and spit on his bruising body.

"Get off Bastard!" Butch growled.

"Shut the fuck up..." The wolf spit on him. Butch tried to get up but they clawed and bit him multiple times. Talia walked out in shock and fear.

"Butch wha- OHH MY! BEN GET INSIDE!" Talia screamed getting Ben Inside the den quickly.

"Get her!" The brown wolf shouted, as two wolves ran inside.

"L-leave my family out of this..." Butch gassed out, with his mouth full of blood.

"You should of never left us Butch.. that was a Mistake."

"Oh yea, why's that?"

"Because now you're going to pay the price for it. The price for them..." The brown wolf whispered in Butch's ear, as the wolves brought out Talia and Ben.

"TALIA!!" Butch screamed to her. He tried again desperately to get up, but the two wolves had him pinned for good. The wolf pinned Talia on the floor hard, pushing her head onto the floor, making her shake in fear. She screamed for her child, but the other wolf beat her and clawed her. Ben screamed to his parents, but they were restrained and beaten up also.

"Don't KILL THEM! I'll do anything! Anything I swear!" Butch let out, but the two wolves muffled his mouth.

"Too late. You Should've known I was coming for you, now this is what happens.." The wolf said, as he stabbed Ben with his sharp claws, making him gasp for a moment until he choked on his blood. Butch's mouth was unable to move, and his eyes were shaking furiously. The wolf bit Ben by the neck and tossed him inside the den, like a piece of meat.

"BEN!!!" Talia screamed, as so did Butch but he was muzzled. She got up but the wolf slapped her hard in the face leaving several cuts and blood gushing down her eye.

"MY BOY MY BABY BOY! GET AWAY FROM ME! STOP!" Talia shrieked, her bloodshot eyes teared madly.

"See what happens Butch? See what happens when you fuck with us!? Any last words..?" The Wolf held her neck up and Talia looked at her mate one last time, she whispered softly 'I love you' to him. Butch's whole body was unable to move, as he desperately tried to scream as loud as possible. The wolf sliced her neck, and she died on the cold floor.

"NOOOO!" He screamed loudly, escaping the struggle but they restrained him on his back and was pinned tightly on the shoulders. His wife and pup stood cold dead, and no word could come out of his mouth.

"Leave your mark on him, and make it deep" The brown wolf said to Butch as the wolves clawed out his eye. They gasped deeply into his flesh, blood poured all over the left side of his face. The wolf left a large scar on the left side of his eye, and his eye sockets looked out of place. They finally got off the old, beaten up wolf.

"Kill him, throw his body in the river.."

They stabbed Butch in the side of the ribs and threw him over the edge of the cliff. His body hit the rocks on the edge in many different places, and landed in the water with a hard splash. The wolves looked down the edge into the steep cliff, it was more than a forty foot drop.

"He's dead right?"

"Certain. Let's go to tell King it's done..."

Later that Evening...

Butch's abused and torn down body washed on the surface of the lake shore, and laid there in the cold and rainy night. His eyes shut open and he gasped for air, water flooded down his mouth and he coughed and choked on the cold water that was in his throat. Butch limped his way back up the cliff, very slowly and painfully. His paws were numb, half of his face was bloody and swollen, and his family was Dead.

"TALIA!" Butch called, as he got closer to the den. When he reached the den he was them two laying dead in the wet dirt. He got a closer look and his heart sank to the deepest pit of his soul. Butch could only utter, and he held his paw to her, caressing her frozen cheek.

"..no...t-t-this can't...be" He sobbed, picking up Talia and Ben in his arms, he hugged them and cried out to them in the middle of a rainstorm.

"I-I'm sorry Talia...I'm sorry..." He kissed her forehead. He laid his pup on his chest cuddling him.

"F-forgive...m-me Ben...I'm so sorry. P-please.."

"D-dont go... p-please..."

"Please..." He held his head down bawling out tears. He kept his arms around them both and rocked them around.

To think that this was Butch's fault for their deaths made him believe he was the one who was intended to die. Becuase of his poor actions, the innocent dies and blood was on his hands. He remembered the day when he met Talia, a beautiful silver grey wolf. Those blue eyes always seek to calm and comfort him. He remembered the day they both beared a child, and Butch promised to her that he will protect him forever. Butch cried loudly, he thinks he's a terrible father for not giving Ben the life he needed. He remembered when Ben grew his first tooth, Butch always told him he'll be a fearless warrior one day. But all that is gone now, and he doesn't think he can move forward from that. He howled to the sky, showing mercy to the one above him. He cried out why this had to happen, and why he wasn't the one who died over them.

Butch got up slowly after several horrible minutes of mourning to his family. He closed their eyes and let them Rest In Peace in the sky above. He looked up to them and howled, and prayed that they would forgive him.

Butch took a step closer at the cliff, he looked down and saw the rocks and the river from where he fell earlier. This time he wanted to end himself, but he thought about it for a moment. What would his family think? Is this how Justice is done?

No. No Butch had a better idea. His hot tempered soul started boiling and fuming. His paws and ears were warm, and his eyes were filled with hatred and vengeance. He wanted one thing and one thing only,

Revenge.

Thanks for reading the start of a new series! Let me know if I should continue or not. Other than that have a great day and I'll see you soon!
