"What are you doing here, Frill?" I questioned the one I'd grown up with. His lavender eyes were tired-looking as he glanced up at me.

"Protecting you." Was his curt response before laying his head on his paws and falling asleep. "Leave him, Soul," He had began walking towards him. "He's no harm." I watched Azula leave. "Good riddance, odd one."

I felt Lillium's teeth in my tail and I turned halfway around to see that she wasn't there. "Where'd she go?" I looked around, and then under me where a pair a green eyes met my silvery-blue ones. "There you are!" She crawled out from under me and jumped on my back, her over-sized paws almost making her fall. Echo pounced on me, fastening his teeth in my ear and I was buried under pups. "Help! Help! I'm getting killed under them!" I laughed out a low bark and they yipped with me.

The sun set and Clover gathered her pups and led them into the cave, Death, Soul, Night, Karin, and Yuki following. I stayed outside and lay my head on my paws, studying th shadows as I watched Frill and watched for Azula. Some point in my watch, I fell asleep.

"Are- are you sure we should even be doing this, Frill?" I questioned my friend. I was dreaming about my past. "What if they follow us? What'll we do then?"

"You worry to much, ya worrywart!" He snapped, his lavender eyes slightly angered. "They won't! We'll lead them on a chase towards the abandoned river. No sensible wolf goes there."

'Then we obviously aren't sensible.' I thought to myself with a huff. "Okay, let's go." I could smell the human's cooking meat and chicken and my mouth watered. "Are we going to steal from them?" My friend nodded, excitement in his eyes.

"Yeah! Wind will have to praise us for this!" He'd said, excitedly. "You go in. I have no chance of passing a human's dog but you do!" He pushed me, and I stumbled into the camp. A human pup stumbled towards me, its paws stretching towards me, and I backed up and ran the other way, its wailing starting up.

I straightened out and slowed my run to a simple walk, my tail high. I was only about 5 moon's old and I passed as a human dog's pup as they glanced at me and carried on with what they were doing. Ah, hah! There it is! The human's meat store! Dried beef, raw meat, and sausage links were abound in there. The guard today, a human female about 24 moons, looked around, went inside, and came out with two big pieces of dried beef and one medium sausage. She tossed the beef to me and I picked them up and then the sausage and then my cover was blown by Sage, a bully dog about 10 moons.

"WOLF PUP!! That's our meat your takin', and we'll be takin' it back." The female looked around and got a stick and started batting Sage away. I took that chance, and ran with my meat, Sage glancing after me furiously.

"You did it!" I couldn't talk with the meat in my mouth so I just nodded. "Let's go." He took off running, me running at his heels. We got to the river, and took a chance, and jumped the narrow part. I collided with a pair of silver-streaked paws that were connected to a brown body.

"You raided the humans again didn't you, Bone?" I glanced up at the wolf I wished was my father. Wind. My eyes must've said yes because he sighed and my father came, angry, out of the bushes, Azula close behind.

"Stupid pup!" He began. "What were you-" Wind cut him off. "I know he's your son, Kodou, but let me deal with him." My father cast a angry glance at me and stalked away. He motioned his head to Azula, wanting her to come, but she refused.

"No, I will stay with my mate, Wind, not you." He growled and bounded away in the opposite direction. "You are now banished, Kodou, the pack has rules and one is to never harm a pup, even if its your own." Azula's voice rang out, and my father's ears twitched in acknowledgement.

Two month after my father's banishing, I was with Frill, Azula, Yuki and Wind as he watched us play fight when we heard snarls and then Death, Clover, Soul, Night, Thorn, and my father surrounded us. Before they became my pack, they were loners or rogues.

Frill was a year old; I was a year old; Yuki was 2 years old and we were considered Azula and Wind's best fighters. But we were outnumbered my two. "Damn you for banishing me, you'll regret it Wind, Azula. Death, Thorn." He commanded then the ones names he said leapt at me and Frill and I fought with Death while Frill fought with Thorn. I heard snaps as Yuki chased Soul away then turned on Clover, easily getting the upper hand by her weight. Thorn growled and backed up as Frill scratched near the major vein in his throat then Death was thrown into Thorn and they both hit the ground and after getting up, they fled. That left Clover, Night and my father. Frill helped my sister fight Night and Clover, making them giving up and flee.

I saw a brown streak fly past me and then a thud as Wind hit the ground near the river. "Wind!!" Azula growled out, angry for once. Her eyes lit up and she turned on my father, jumping on him and dealing a blow to his shoulder.

With blood running from various cuts and bites, my father fled. We all rushed over to where Wind lay. His brown eyes were fading and fast, and when I looked I saw that he had landed on a sharp rock that had pierced his throat.

"A-Azula, you are now the leader, take care of the my- our pack. It will serve you well." He breathed his last and a breeze started up with rain.

"Boss! Wake up! It's sunhigh!" Soul's voice sounded in my ear and I bolted to my feet, alert. "Don't freak, shouldn't we be going?" I calmed myself down, and nodded.

"Yes, let's go, get the rest." He nodded and my pack assembled around me. I started walking, my pack following. The pack is my family. And I will not stop to keep them safe until Aren is dead.

A/N- SO?! How'd ya like this chappie?!
