Chapter 15 unexpected outcome
"What... Did you just call me?" Miko asked his daughter with a shocked look on his face. "It's no use denying it..." Kate saying whatever came to her head to prevent Miko from turning around. "Winston may have raised me but it's YOUR blood running through my veins. I am destined to be like you." At this point Jake noticed his brother, he signaled his brother to attack on his command. Jake nodded in confirmation. "Please father, let me join your pack and let me rejoin you at your side... As father and daughter." Miko gave his daughter a deep look. "NOW!" Cloud shouted. Jake ran in-between Miko's legs and launched him in the air and Cloud tackled him to the ground and his head slammed against the floor of the cave. "Get outta here Kate!" screamed Jake. Kate wasted no time she bolted out as fast as she could. Humphrey saw Kate leaving the cave and shouted "Kate!" then he took a second look, and saw she was covered with blood. "Dad... don't..." said Lance. Humphrey saw red and ran toward Kate as fast as his legs could carry him. "NO!" Lance shouted. Lance, Nova, and the rest of the pups followed him. "Humphrey!" Kate said with a huge smile on her face. She ran to her mate as quickly as she could. They met in front of a tree halfway through the packs territory and hugged each other. They hugged for a while until Miko walked out of the cave and said "Seize Them!" Every wolf in the pack ran toward the couple. Humphrey bared his teeth and gave the most terrifying growl he could muster. The wave of wolves immediately stopped dead in their tracks and froze with fear. Cloud limped out of the cave and said "Humphrey." Humphrey snapped his head toward Cloud still bearing his teeth. "Tell Miko how much Kate means to you." Miko looked over to Cloud with a look of confusion. "She is my everything... I won't be able to continue without her..." "Why should I care? I want her and her pups dead at my feet." "Stop!" Jake said limping out of the cave. "Everyone look around you how many of you actually want to hurt Kate? Seriously are you just doing what you are told or do you guys actually share his feelings too?" "I wanted to hurt her..." said a random wolf in the crowd. The wolf beside him punched the wolf in the face and he fell to the ground unconscious. "Go ahead, Jake." The wolf said. "Thanks Frank, but seriously guys, why are you so afraid of him? I say we vote for a new pack leader." With the one wolf unconcious the entire crowd howled in agreement. "It's treason then." growled Miko jumping at Jake. Cloud, Humphrey, Lance, and Nova jumped at Miko and fought him off. "GET OUT OF MY SIGHT! NEVER COME BACK!" Shouted Humphrey bearing his teeth. Miko tucked his tail between his legs and ran off as fast as he could. The wolves howled in cheer as Miko ran away. The wolf who was punched in the face stood up and said "Wait... Who's going to be the leader now?..." Frank stepped forward and said, "I say Cloud becomes the new leader." before the wolves could howl in agreement Cloud stepped forward saying, "I refuse." Every wolf gave a look of confusion the one who got punched in the face shouted, "Why not?" frank punched him in the face again and said, "Mike I'm not going to tell you again, be quiet." "Because I have someone else to look after." said Cloud looking over to Nova. "My brother will lead you." cloud said turning his head away from Nova and toward Jake. "With pride. Now you and your group can go back to Sawtooth." "Are you sure you can handle things here brother?" Asked Cloud "Yes now you and your friends go back. Make your lady friend there a happy wolf." With that the group turned around and walked back to Lilly.
