Chapter 10:
Bruce's POV (At Yaho Park):
5 months ago:
I have recently diagnosed with a wolf killing illness and I'll be gone in less than a year. I was hoping to pass my knowledge to my son, so he'll carry on my missions.
"Devin! COME HERE!" I shout to him as he walks into my den.
"Yes, dad?" He asked.
"Listen to me, " I start, "I went to the medic today and she had some bad news. She said I only have a little while longer to live, and there is a task I want you to complete for when I'm gone. You have inherited my strengths and skill, in a year, you'll be the strongest wolf around and you'll be unstoppable. But listen, you'll also take over my job, which is an alpha trainer and war leader. I also kill the wolves at the execution. But about 5 months ago, this wolf escaped. His name was Robert, and even though they say he died, I know he's still alive. The Pack leader said to give up the search, but I never have, I failed to find him, and I need to bring justice. Now, I need you to find him when I'm gone. Can I count on you?" I asked him.
"Uh, yeah, sure dad." He said, a little uneasy.
"Ok, now, don't go after him until I have passed, then i want you to go." I told him, "oh, and one last thing: His son, Humphrey, I think he has helped him, find and kill him too..."
Humphrey's POV:
"Humphrey? Humphrey. Humphrey! HUMPHREY!" I hear and then immediately pop up.
"Ah, what, who's there?" I ask.
"Calm down, Humphrey, it's just me." I look to see kate.
"Oh, good, I thought that..." I started to look around, "Wait a minute... somethings not right." I say, continuing to look.
"Your right." She says, and then we both gasped.
"This isn't Jasper!" We both say as I try to think and Kate starts to panic.
"Woah, calm down Kate. This may not be as bad as it seems." I tell her.
"Humphrey, you don't understand, I need to get back to Jasper to..." I cut her off.
"...Marry Garth. I know." I finished.
"Right, wait. How do you know that?" she asked me.
"Winston told me."
"Yeah, of course, he did. But if we want to get back, we need to find someone that knows where we are." She said. I looked around a little but didn't see anyone, but then out of the blue, a small rock flew in between Kate and me.
"Did you see that?" I asked her.
"Yeah, it came from that way." She said pointing toward the bushes. "Come on." We started walking and walked on through the bushes to see two birds playing some sort of game. "Maybe they can help us." She said.
"And if not, we can eat them," I say.
"Yeah." We started to walk towards them, but the yellow one noticed us and saw us as a threat.
"(Gasp!) Take off!" He says as he bolts off in the air.
"Paddy, where are you going, we were in the middle of..." He saw our shadows and turned around. "Ah, wolves. You are wolves, but I not afraid of wolves, no I am not."
"Good, because we just want to ask a couple of questions," I said.
"Ok, ask away, but please stand over there. I don't want to become wolf dinner today." He told us while pointing to a bolder with a stick.
"We don't plan on eating you, but, where are we?" Kate asks the goose.
"Wait, are you not from here? Now that I think of it, I don't see many wolves around these parts. Come with me, I show you." He takes off in the air to find his friends. "You guys just follow us from the ground ok?" He tells us.
"Yeah, sure," I reply.
"Paddy, their friends, we are taking them to the ranger station. There's a map there, that's what they need."
"Ok." He replies and they were off.
When we got there, there was a small building with a bending machine, bench, water fountain, and a map on the side.
"You're in Idaho!" He said.
"Ida-who?" I ask.
"Idaho, a place among the state with a few billion potatoes. Sawtooth National Wilderness!" He said.
"What are we doing in Idaho?" She asked again.
"Ey-ya-ya. You with the questions. You two were relocated here to, um, repopulate."
"What!?" She asked shocked.
"Hey sounds good to me, a pack shouldn't be without some wolves," I say as I look at her, she then elbows me in the gut. "Oof, hey, I was just kidding," I tell her.
"Good." She says.
"So are you two a, how do you put it? An Item? Hehe." He asked.
"Well..." I started but was immediately cut off.
"No!" She says quickly.
"Hey guys, I never got you to name," I say to the birds. He hops down from the bench.
"I'm Marcel, and this is Paddy, and you are..." He asked.
"I'm Kate and this is Humphrey." She said.
"Now that we are all caught up, I need to get home," Kate tells them.
"Come on Kate, try to relax," I tell her.
"There is no time, if I don't get to Jasper, trouble will come. I need to get there fast, Do you know the way?" She asks Marcel.
"Alright, miss fast, where is home?" He said.
"Jasper Park Canada." She said, uneasy. She was worried that they would know the place.
"Jasper?!" We love Jasper! We've toured it many times. Of course, we will take you, plus you didn't eat me so I owe you a favor." He says as he starts to hover. "Follow me, there is an RV we need to catch. Do you want the short or the long way?" He asks.
"The short," Kate says.
"Why, I want to explore," I tell her.
"We need to get back Humphrey, we don't know would happen if we don't get there now." She says.
"Ok, follow me, again," Marcel says he flys off into the woods. It wasn't long before the journey got difficult. We came across a cliff, with quite a fall down.
"Ok, just hop down there, and all that's after that is a few more trees and your there," Paddy tells us.
"You see kate?! This is why I should choose the paths. We both know I can't make that jump." I tell her. I could make it, it's just that I've not gone through the training Kate has to make it.
"Ah, sure you can, just follow my lead." She says as she jumps off and does some flip and then lands the fall, unharmed. Every gut, bone, and muscle in my body told me not to jump, but for some stupid reason, off the cliff, I went anyways.
"Ahhhh!" I scream as fall down to the ground. I landed it with a loud popping sound. Kate turned around.
"Are you ok?" She asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine," I told her, but when I went to follow, I collapsed. I took a look at my leg to see the bone sticking out of my leg. I picked up my leg with my mouth and dropped it. It was bleeding badly. "Kate," I said, weary.
"What Hum-Humphrey!" She shouts and runs to me when she sees my leg.
"Kate..." I say as my vision starts to fade.
"Humphrey." She said, but then my lights were out.
Lilly's POV:
"So why is this called Rabbit Poo Mountain?" Garth asked me.
"Because this is where Rabbits like to poo," I tell him. I'm a pure white Omega Female with violet eyes.
"Ew!" He says as he starts hopping.
"I'm kidding," I tell him while giggling.
"Oh, I get it, you're a funny omega. Make me laugh." He tells me.
"It has to come to me, I'm not that type of funny," I tell him.
"Ok, well, do you want to see something an alpha can do?" He asks me.
"Would my mother approve?" I asked, unsure.
"Of course!"
"Ok then," I say as I followed him.
Winston's POV:
"We have to find her before tomorrow night," Eve tells everyone.
"Her, who are you looking for?" I ask.
"Kate!" Eve yells at me.
"She's missing?" I ask.
"Yes!!! Who have you been looking for this whole time?!" Eve asked really angry.
"Humphrey, he got mad at me then, wait, Kate and Humphrey went missing right after I told Humphrey that he was actually an Alpha!" I said.
"Humphrey's and Alpha!?" Eve asks, "Oh, Winston, Humphrey better not be doing anything with Kate!!!" Eve yells.
"I'm sure he's not. I and he are buddies, but I bet them two ran off. They have got to be close so keep looking alphas." I order as I continued to look.
Humphrey's POV:(Darkness)
Where am I? It's dark, and cold here. The last thing I can remember is falling off a cliff. "YOU DID NOT FALL, YOU JUMPED!" an echo said.
"Who is that!?" I yell out.
"DON'T YOU KNOW ME? I AM YOUR CONSCIENCE, BUT THIS IS THE THIN LINE BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH. DON'T YOU REMEMBER ME?!" It says just as a wolf walks out from nowhere.
"No, you are a complete stranger," I say to him or it, whatever it is. He then looks me in the eyes and I see what he sees:
(Flashback)
I could see me, a younger me" Race you there!" the younger me shouted as those wolves took off towards a den, i was the fastest than the other wolf, the other wolf was far behind, I had no clue I was this fast at a young age. But when he, or I, turned back around, I ran into this wolf, the one that's in my head.
"Oh, sir, I'm so sorry! Are you all right?" The younger me asked that wolf, the wolf stood up and... Disappeared. (Flashback End)"What was that?" I asked the mysterious wolf.
"That was an event from your past life. You see Humphrey. I am your guardian. I am supposed to guard you and lead you through life. But, you have amnesia, and my first mission is to bring back your memory, vision at a time. That wolf you were racing, was an alpha friend of yours. Bolt." He says.
"Well, I still don't understand, what are you, how is that, and does everyone have one?" I asked him.
"Good questions. I am a guardian, kind of like a fairy. Some people say, listing to your conscience, I'm kind of like that. I will lead and help you achieve your goals through life. You won't know them until they have been accomplished. I am like a ghost, that loves you at all times. Every now and then I will bring you here to talk, however, you can't stay here long, cause that can lead to minutes turning into hours, leading to commas and even death. However, the only reason your here this time because your idiot self jumped off a cliff. Anyway, I use to be like you, alive, but I died, and here I am. Only a selected few can become what I am, and it is totally random. Some are good, me, and some are bad, David's." He said.
"Who's David?" I ask.
"You'll know later, and only a very few wolves have guardians." He says as he starts to fade.
"What's happening?" I ask.
"You're waking up, if you go through a serious injury, you'll come by me, but when you are better, you go back to Earth. If I pull you here though, you can only bee here for a minute before it affects you. Now good luck on your leg Humphrey." He finishes as he fades completely away and Kate takes his place...
(Reality)"Kate..." I say weakly.
"Humphrey, your ok!?" She Shouts as she runs to me and hugs me. "Don't do that, you scared me."
"Hehe, sorry," I said, weakly.
"Hey, furry friend. I used to be a medical goose before I took up golf. I stitched up your leg, but you have to stay here and heal. The RV left, but there is still a train. You know, your girlfriend wants to be cruel and drag you on it." Marcel says.
"Girlfriend...Funny." I say. Kate smiles.
"Don't worry Humphrey, we will stay here and let you rest." She says.
"Thanks, wait, where are we?" I ask.
"I don't know, some den. Just try to get some rest and I'll catch some food tomorrow." She says as she lays down.
"Kate, the weirdest thing happens while I was out..." I was cut off by a voice in my head. It's me Humphrey, your Guardian, I forgot to say but you mustn't tell anyone about me, I don't know why, but if you do, you never see me again.
"What is it, Humphrey?" She asked.
"What is what?" I ask back.
"Nevermind, goodnight." She said.
"Good night," I say right before I fall asleep.
How did you like this chapter? Leave what you think about me giving Humphrey a enemy and a guardian in the comments, and don't forget to read the next chapter. Do you think Humphreys leg will heal soon, will they make it back to Jasper before a war starts? Only one way to find out! Have a great rest of your day and...
Piece!
