The nights was quiet and long the breeze hazy and slow with the night sky full of stars twinkling like no tomorrow with a full moon taking up all the space held in the space above the beautiful land beneath; above the valley was a cliff was a small ledge. On the ledge stood a creature unknown to the ones below; sliver eyes full of curiosity for these new beings. The creature jumped down landing into the water and letting the water soak into its fur as the moon reflected its sliver orbs; paws moving swiftly through the water creating ripple's and breaks in the water. The beast moved forward towards the sleeping couple leaning its head in close enough to get a good view of the two it moved its head to the side unsure of the two it walked around but flinched once it heard the sound of a branch. But relax as a white rabbit jumped out of the forest area.

"You startled me, little fella" spoke the unknown creature

The rabbit hopped up to the bigger creature and had a bit of a sniff of its paw, the rabbit wasn't scared of it but more like the opposite the rabbit was more like overjoyed to see the creature, the creature laughed at the small animal and had forgotten about the two wolves near the water. The creature stopped it's laughing once it heard the sound of branches hitting against a tough body of fur and muscle. The sliver eyed creature stood its ground as it watched the bushes rattle even more as it came closer, only to reveal an old grey wolf, the creature didn't ease up but tense up and showed its teeth and giving a low growl to show it didn't want a fight, the old wolf stood and watched the youngling as it stood its ground.

"I never thought you'd come back to this place" spoke Kiba

"…" the other wolf stayed silent

"as always never willing to talk about it, but still keeps that silent tone, but I must say you have grown up, Jake" commented Kiba

"I thought I told you never to call me that" snapped the sliver eyed wolf

"Oh, so the great Sliver eyed wolf does talk" Kiba sarcastically spoke

Jake stopped his growling and stood up straight but it was hard to see what he was going to do next for his whole coat was in darkness only sliver eyes stood out in the darkness. But instead of a fight he ran from Kiba keeping them apart.

"You may look older but you sure as don't act older, my dear young nephew" Kiba watched as the pale gold disappeared over the horizon, Kiba looked over to Kate and Nile and watched with a smile as they slept together, Kiba slipped past the trees and disappeared into the forest as the sun showed its rays of light on the valley.

Kiba had send Indie, Shan and Edge to the valley to tell Nile and the others to follow them to Kiba. Unlike normal today was Edge's day off of guard duty but he still had to come, but Edge wasn't very recognisable for his body wasn't covered in blue paint made from blueberries instead he had no paint on at all showing that he was a pure black wolf with no marking just a few scars on his body, his lime eyes stood out more than normal from being black furred for being covered in paint his eyes didn't stand out as much as now, and if you had a good look they were quiet a nice colour. He looked very different to his normal look.

Once the three reached the valley the four wolves were up already and walking around in the daylight's heat and warm breeze. the three stopped walking and looked at the others they had weird looks on their faces as they looked at the black wolf not having a clue who he was, even tho they travelled together for a brief time they should of known that it was him but then again the only true colour of his fur they could see was his front paw.

"Um, hey" spoke Kate

"Hey, yourself" greeted Indie

The three walked closer to the four, that's when Kate walked up to Indie only to ask a simple question.

"Who's that?" asked Kate with a whispered voice

"Who's who?" asked Indie

"That, the one with the black fur and dale lime eyes" questioned Kate

"That's Edge" answered Indie

"What really!" this surprised Kate

"Huh, wait you didn't know it was me" Edge spoke joining in on their little conversation

"No I had no clue" spoke Kate

"How? I haven't changed" answered a confused Edge

"Well, you kind of have" spoke Kiara

"How?" questioned Edge

"You're not blue" Tyson joined

"You didn't think that was my real colour did you?" asked Edge

"No of course, not that's impossible" spoke Kiara

"So is there anything else so called different about me" questioned Edge

"No but your eyes do stand out more" Kate spoke

"They do?" asked Edge

"Yea" answered Kiara

"I've never taken notice to them" answered Edge

"Maybe because you can't see them" commented Shan

"Shut up, Shan" snapped Edge

Edge growled under his breath from Shan comment, he really wasn't in the mood to argue with Shan. One he lost his day off; two everyone saw his real colour for there was a reason for way Edge always covered himself in blueberry paint. Kate was curious in why Edge always covered himself in blueberry paint.

"Sorry" Shan said in a sarcastic voice

"Hm…" hummed Edge

The five watched the two argue as Indie walked over to Kate and Nile.

"Kiba, has asked for you all to see him" spoke Indie

"What about?" asked Nile

"Just follow us, please" commended Indie

Indie turned around and walked towards the small valley, Kate, Nile, Kiara and Tyson followed after Indie and walked past Edge and Shan without even telling them that they were leaving to see Kiba. Edge turned around to see the others gone as Shan continued going on about something not even related to the fight in the first place. Edge growled from the others leaving him with this mad case of a wolf who sometimes acted like a rabbit. Edge bite's into the talked none stop Shan and dragged her out of the forest and into the valley, not noticing the pair of sliver eyes from the distant above on the hill.

The five walked in silence it made everything more touting for the four, the silence didn't broke even when a crow flow up into the sky; Kate watched the bird fly up into the blue fresh aired sky, then looked back at the black wolf in front of them , to Kate Indie looked very serious about something. 'Maybe it's about how Kiba called for us' Kate continued to wonder about it and what had Indie in such a bad mood.

'I can't believe he's back, he said himself he wouldn't return' Indie clenched her teeth at the thought of the sliver eyed wolf.

Nile noticed Indie's anger and decided not to say anything to her encase he just made it worse for her 'I'm curious to known why Kiba called upon us' Nile looked at the ground and watched the dirt go by his feet Nile slowed his paced and ended at the back of the pack walking behind everyone, Nile stopped walking and lifted his head once he saw the bushes move, Nile lowered his head and sniffed the ground and bush only for a white rabbit to appear, Nile's ear's pricked up at the little ball of fur before him.

The rabbit sniffed Nile's front paw, making him lift it up and making the rabbit grab onto it and be lifted up by the golden wolf, Nile lowed his head to the rabbit and looked at the little fella, the rabbit jumped down and tried to grab his ear once it did it pulled itself up onto the back of the golden wolf. Nile didn't mind the little white rabbit on his back he found it fun that something so small like being around something so scary it was as if it had been around wolves its whole life.

Nile noticed the others were far ahead so he chased after them in a chance of catching up to them. Nile jogged up to the others with the rabbit still holding on just only to his golden fur and scarf. Tyson raised an eyebrow to the little rabbit as he saw the little white fur on the back of Nile's neck.

At first Tyson just thought it was Nile's fur until he remembers that his fur is gold not white no matter how close they may look the same they are different. Tyson lifted his head to see the little white fur curled up into a little ball Tyson gentle bites Nile on the shoulder to get his attention, Nile turns to face Tyson's confused face.

"What?" Questioned Nile

"Since when have you had white fur?" asked Tyson in curiosity

"Since I was born" answered Nile

"No I mean on your back" commented Tyson

"I don't have white fur on my back only yellow, dumpy" spoke Nile

"Then what's that?" questioned Tyson

Nile turned his head to his back to see the little white rabbit curled up on his back looking like a piece of his fur only white. Nile softly laughed at Tyson for not realising that it was a rabbit, Tyson just cocked his head to the side in confusion for why Nile was laughing at him. But before he could question it they arrived at their destination.

Kiba sat on the edge of the den has he waited for his guest to arrive to the den. Kiba turned his head when he saw the bushes to the valley moving and five wolves came out Kiba raised an eyebrow to the missing Shan and Edge but then disappeared when he saw the little white fur on Nile's back, he growled of the memory of the little white rabbit as it helped out his grandson and turned him to follow a different path to what he wanted from his grandson.

But Kiba's face changed from a frown to a smile as he saw the four walking up the hill towards him. The golden fur along with black, red-brown and orange were all visible by now as so was their eyes the ocean blue, the sky blue, emerald green and the yellow sapphires.

Kiba stayed sited on the ground as all the others came forth and sat in front of him with confused looks not knowing what is going on and why they were being called forth to Kiba. Nile was very confused by Kiba's face as he sat down on the stone hard ground.

"Hello everyone, how was your sleep?" questioned Kiba

"Good, thank you" answered all at once

"Kiba, what is this about?" asked Nile

"Oh, well, did any of you feel like you were being watched by something" asked Kiba

"No, why?" Questioned Nile

"Oh, it's nothing to worry about" spoke Kiba

"Alright is that all" asked Nile

"No, I was thinking that you would like to go for a walk and get to know our land and ways" answered Kiba

"That sounds like a good idea Kiba" spoke Kate

"Indie, you and Shan as well as Edge well show them around if you please" spoke Kiba

"Of course, Kiba" piped up Indie

"Thank you" Nile thanked Kiba

"Well lets go, you'll love our land" spoke Indie

"Hm…" hummed Kiba

The group left Kiba as Indie lead the way to the land they lived in. it only took a few minutes from the den to get to the valley below. Like last time the valley was full of life and fun, pups running around, older wolves talking and having a laugh.

Kate smiled at the scene of all the happy faces around them. Kate's eyes were so concentrated on everything around them that she didn't notice someone walk into her. Once she realised what was happening she was seating on her hid face to face with another wolf, her nose touching theirs.

Kate blushed at the position she was in. face to face with the new wolf, his eyes were a sliver with a gleam of light and hope inside, but before Kate could take a look at the sliver eyed wolf he was off, with every pair of eyes looking at him.

The little white rabbit that was on Nile's back hopped off and chased after the sliver eyed wolves, in a chance of catching up to him, with his short white little legs. Nile tilted his head and watched the white rabbit hop off after the sliver eyed wolf.

"Who was that?" asked Kate

"He's a nobody, just forget about him" answered Indie

"Oh okay" said Kate

Kate looked behind her as she said that it sounded a little cruel to say it about him but she didn't even know him so she really couldn't talk about him or talk back to Indie since she knew him better than what she did.

But she was curious to know who he was. 'Who is he?' Kate got back up and waited for Indie to walk on towards where they were going

Indie lead the way towards the area and once they got there they were faced with a beautiful waterfall and stream. There were multiple wolves around the water either drinking or playing.

It was a beautiful site to the eyes of the four wolves, nearly as beautiful as their sleeping area in the valley of trees. The waterfall fell without much sound, surrounding the clear crystal water was fresh diamond sparking grass.

Fish swam in the water many of different colours of scales filled the crystal water. Kate's eyes watched in amazement of the beauty of the land. Kate walking up to the water and watched the fish while watching them she didn't notice the pup running towards her and the water.

The pup jumped into the water and ran past Kate and into the centre of the water and started to swim around. Leaving a very wet Kate with a mouth open from the pup's behaviour. Kate could hear laughing behind her and turned to look behind herself.

To see Nile trying to hold in his laughs, Kiara laughing her head off and Tyson was on his back laughing like a crazy old wolf, and then there was Indie who was doing the same thing as Nile just having a lot of trouble doing it.

Kate giggled along with them for it was funny even if she didn't think so at the start. Once they had finished their laughing fit Indie lead them up on top of the waterfall's source. The view from above was beautiful for you could see all of the jungle and the ocean which was miles away from the valley.

While looking out at the jungle Kate's smiled turned into a frown when she noticed the trees shaking and falling over. Kate nogged Nile with her nose into his shoulder, Nile looked over at Kate and noticed her glance and what she was looking at.

"What's down there?" Nile asked Kate

"I don't know" Kate answered with a unsure voice

Nile and Kate watched as the trees shook and timbered to the ground of the jungle floor. Indie noticed that the two were looking out towards the open land and walked over to them to asked 'what they saw' but once Indie reached them she didn't need to for she could see for herself what was down there.

"We need to go, Now!" Indie yelled with fright

Indie turned around to start running down the hill while the others stood at the top in confusion but soon followed once they looked at each other.

Indie ran through the valley as fast as her legs could take her. Indie was running so fast that she didn't notice that she was about to ran into Edge. Indie's head landed on Edge's back and her front legs taking down his front legs making them roll into the dirt.

Indie shot right up her back legs still on the ground as she tried to get up. Edge got slowly and noticed indie's face was full of fear and fright. Edge was curious to know what had put Indie into a state of shock. Never had Edge seen Indie look like what she did at that very moment.

"Hey, Indie what's wrong?" Edge asked with concern

"Her…in…the….Jun…..gle!" Indie panted out from fright and exhaustion.

"You mean, here in the Jungle?" Edge corrected

Indie nodded and then got back up onto her feet and continued to walk then trot towards Kiba's cave in the mountain. Once she reached KIba's cave she walked inside to find Kiba. She couldn't find him. 'Where is he?'.

Indie came out of the cave and looked out on the peak of the rock that Kiba loved to sleep on. She looked out at the valley only not to see him. Indie gave up and went back to the valley in hope that nothing had happened to anyone.

Once Indie got back all she could hear was the sound of yelping and feet hitting the ground along with bodies hitting the ground. Indie watched in horror as her pack was killed before her very eyes.

Edge looked around watching every wolf Alpha and Omega run by him faces full of fear and fright as bullets hit the ground next to their paws. Edge was frozen on the spot as one of the guns was placed at his head.

Edge was ready for the pain of falling to the ground as well as the shot to his head killing him in an instant. But there was no bang or pain or the feel of dirt in his fur. Edge looked up to see Shan attacking, no defending him from the gun.

She was biting in deep into the man's arm looking like she would tear it off at any minute. Edge woke up and pulled at Shan's tail trying to get her away from the man. When she finally let go the two ran off towards the forest leading towards Kiba's cave.

Kate tried to keep up with Nile, Kiara and Tyson but wasn't able to and tripped on a stone making her land on her face. Making her an easy target for the humans to shot. Kate watched as they came closer towards her.

She tried to get up but it was no use she had landed on her wing after going face first into the dirt. They came closer until they were only a few feet away in shotting range of Kate. Kate closed her eyes knowing what was coming just like on that night.

Nile stopped running trying to find Kate in the madness of wolves. When he couldn't find her he looked behind himself, to see Kate on the ground with her eyes closed and a gun pointing towards her.

"NNNNOOOO!,KATE!"

Nile ran up but was stopped when the gun was fired his faced filled with horror of what had happened to Kate. His ears back and mouth open, legs feeling heavy, and unable to pick up and run with. 'Kate's dead, she's dead, no!'

But just when he thought Kate dead the dust from the shot cleared to reveal Kate still lying there on the ground, not a bit of her blood spilled. But how, standing above Kate was a dale golden coated male wolf, his dale coat mixed with sliver markings both back legs with socks up to his knees and the tip of his tail and ears. Three fresh scars on his left front leg, and on both sides of his mouth he has a tooth hanging out, his sharp pure white claws but the front left one being blood red, like Nile's and Kate's. but the thing that stood out the most was his beautiful sliver eyes.

Standing there panting blood dripping down his shoulder to his chest and into the puddle on the ground in front of him. Forgetting about his wound the sliver eyed wolf stopped his panting and swallowed his breathe and stood up tall and growled bearing his teeth towards them.

Gun lifted back up to his head the Sliver eyed wolf hunched his back, pushed his ears back and lifted his tail, bearing his teeth the whole time to protect Kate. Gun reloaded and trigger ready to release the bullet hidden inside the machine.

Lowing himself more he waited for the moment to attack. Only to have another wolf jump on his back and attack himself. The sliver eyed wolf stopped snarling and watched as the wolf jumped over him and the brown female.

The Gun unprepared for the attack shot towards nothing as the man fell towards the ground with the wolf snarling and biting towards the man in a defence for the younger wolves behind him. Watching in shock, the sliver eyed male snapped out of it, and helped Kate up.

Watching her walk towards Nile and making sure to watch behind them in case of them coming after them, also making sure that their saviour was safe. After one last look behind them and seeing that the wolf was backing off the sliver eyed male ran off into the trees.

Stopping some after entering the trees to receive many looks. Lowering his ears and tail in-between his legs the male walked slowly through the crowd toward the front. Waiting at the front was several glares from Edge, Shan and Indie.

"Where's Kiba, Jake?" Asked Indie in a unpleasant voice as if she was holding back from tearing his throat out.

"I-I don't know" answered the sliver eyed wolf now known as Jake.

"I think you do, Jake!" snapped Indie

"Indie I don't know where his is" snapped Jake in a more confident voice with pick up ears that soon went down by Indie's glare.

"No need to get aggressive Indie I'm fine" came an old voice from the trees.

"KIBA!" Shouted Shan with joy

"Alpha Kiba, it's good to have you back" said Edge calmly

"Where were you?. For a minute I thought that Jake was going to be taking the pack, why else would he had come back" Asked Indie

"Well I went for a walk and to have a talk with any young relative, hey young little Jakie, hm" answered Kiba nogging Jake with his shoulder while Jake looked the other way away from Kiba.

"Now, since the humans have found us and our home time to move lands, Kate, Nile, Kiara and Tyson I guess this is where we part ways" commented Kiba

"Yes it does Kiba this has been a fun couple of days I must say" Nile told the old wolf

"Yes it has, now I wish I could have told you more about the pack of the desert but I believe that if you travel north of here there should be the rest of the North desert, dangerous but it is believe that is where the desert pack went to reside and regroup I'm afraid I cannot tell you more then that" commented Kiba once more

"Thank you Kiba you have been a great help" answered Nile

"You're welcome" spoke Kiba

"Wait Kiba, that wolf with the Sliver eyes?" asked Kate

"You mean Jake, he's my grandson" answered Kiba towards the brown wolf

"What!, your related!" Kate was shocked to hear this

"Yes, his mother was killed by a human and his father had gone mad after her death and left the pack towards the East Desert, I looked after him until he was old enough to look after himself you saw yourself what he ended up as an exiled wolf from the pack so he has no pack now" commented Kiba

"He can join us!" Kate piped up

"What!, Kate were not a pack, were not even all from the same pack" Nile told the female

"So what, he's just one more to the odd bunch we are so what do you say Kiba" answered Kate

"Kate!, you ever heard of a vote" Nile tried to reason with the wolf

"Nile, what does it matter?, none of us really are from the same pack and were all rough wolves now that we've left our packs" Kate tried to convice the much taller wolf

"Why are you trying so hard just to save him?" Nile questioned the female

"I don't know, just when I saw his eyes they were full of sorrow and sadness that I felt that I needed to help him" answered Kate

"In other words you don't want to see him on his own like how I found you" Nile corrected

"Yeah, you didn't leave me to die you waited for me then helped me and you still are" Kate commented

"Alright Kiara, Tyson you guys have any objections to this" Nile asked the two

"Nope, it would be good it have a new face" Kiara answered back to the golden wolf

"Yeah I agree with Kiara" piped up Tyson

"Airight Kate go ask-,Huh?"

Kate had already gone over to Jake and was asking him if he wanted to came with them.

"What do you say Jake, you want to come" asked Kate

"I don't know all I am is trouble" answered Jake

"Come on, I need to thank you and by thank you I want you to live with us and travel with us please?" commented Kate

"Alright I'll came only cause I don't trust that you'll be safe, by that I mean with facing humans, do you even know how to fight um?" question Jake

"Kate, and no I don't and I promise I'll be more careful" Promised Kate

"Alright when do we leave?" asked Jake

"I guess today?" answered Kate

"you don't know" question Jake

"Haha" laughed Kate

"were leaving today no need to worry Jake, my names Nile by the way and this is Kiara and Tyson" commented Nile.

"Today sounds good, staying here's a bad Idea" answered Jake

"Right then lets go" Nile told them

"Yeah, back on the road, for what did Aurora call you guys" Tyson questioned

"The Blood Red Claws dummy" said Kiara

"Blood Red!" spoke Jake

"Yeah, you know someone with a red claw" asked Nile

"Um, not really unless you count me as knowing myself?" Jake told them

All of them looked towards Jake with surprise and then towards his feet noticing the red claw on his left front paw.

The one Aurora spoke of. The one to unlock their wings yet.

It was Jake…..

Jake was the third wolf…..
