R&R

Conri and Amoux

I listened silently as Elavadrid and Lamila howled into the night. Elavadrid's voice was slightly lower then Lamila's voice. But both of they're voices stayed steady as they howled. There was no answer. We had reached the Western Woods, and it seemed to get colder out. The sky had grown dark and a light snow fell on the ground. We had set up camp in the southern part of the woods, and had attempted to communicate with the River Outo pack for quite some time now.

"That's fine." Peter said going up to the two wolves, "Go rest. They aren't going to respond." The two wolves nodded and settled down for the night.

"Winter will be settling in soon." I heard Edmund comment.

"Hopefully not while we're still out here." Peter responded. I sighed and stood up, Miko by my side.

"Stay." I glared at my dog making him lay down, "I won't be long. I'm just going to check around the woods." Miko nodded and rested his head on his paws. I smiled to myself as I wandered into the woods. Perhaps the wolves could hear me if I was alone.

"Conri?" I thought/called, "Amoux? Sophia? I was sent here by Aslan." I didn't hear any response. Perhaps they were too far? I shrugged and turned around, but stopped dead in my tracks as I heard a twig snap. I turned around but didn't see anyone; I felt a presence with me.

"Who's there?" I thought/called. I heard a low groan somewhere, but there was no one. I suddenly felt hands clasp around my waist and pull me behind a boulder. I would have screamed, but as you know, I couldn't. The person holding me fell on the ground, me landing on they're lap. I looked up to see Edmund holding his finger to his lips.

He slowly placed me on the ground, and we both peeked around the corner. Standing not too far off was a giant green creature, with monstrous teeth. It looked of a creature of a fairytale, such as an ogre. Standing next to the monstrous green giant was a ghost like creature.

"It's an ogre, and a spectre." Edmund murmured into my ear, making me shiver, "We have to get back to-

Before Edmund could finish what he was going to say, he was thrown violently to the side. I turned around to find another ogre standing behind me. My eyes went wide in horror as I started backing away. I saw Edmund land in a crumpled heap next to a large tree, and not moving. I feared he was hurt as the other ogre made it's way over to him. But in a flash Edmund was on his feet, wielding his sword.

The ogre pulled out an axe, and the two commenced in fighting. The ogre in front of me reached out to grab me, but I kicked his hand away and grabbed a rock near my head. The ogre launched himself at me, but I chucked the rock hitting him square in the eye. The ogre roared in pain, and came after me again. I jumped up and backed into a tree, weaponless. I saw Edmund being thrown against another tree by the ghost thing.

The ogre grabbed my torso and lifted me into the sky with tremendous strength. I could easily tell that we were outnumbered. A dagger suddenly flew through the air and latched itself into the ogre's arm.

The ogre roared and dropped me onto the ground with a thud. I looked up to see Peter, Orious, and the two wolves making they're way to help us; Peter's eyes were flaring. The ogre cried out again as Elavadrid latched himself onto the ogre's shoulder. Within seconds Elavadrid was once again thrown to the ground. Peter made his way over to where I was and helped me up, before turning to fight the ogre.

Suddenly, there were three more war howls. I looked up to see three wolves rush down from a hill and pounce on the ogre that was attacking Edmund and Orious. One of the wolves jumped off of the ogre and made it's way over to where I was standing.

"Are you Avery?" The silver wolf asked; I nodded, "I am Sophia. It's a good thing we found you when we did. We have been waiting for you for a very long time."

I flinched as Edmund grunted in pain. He had broken two of his ribs when he was thrown against the tree. I felt guilty about him getting hurt. We rested around the fire as Conri quietly consulted with Peter. Miko was by my side, of course, staring at Sophia. The silver she wolf was very beautiful. She had gleaming silver colored fur, her paws were a brilliant ashen color, her eyes were a light ocher shade, and she held her tail proudly in the air like her parents.

Amoux was as she was described, an eagle wolf. Her pelt was a shiny tawny color with cream and black patches, like the underside of a falcon; her belly was a light russet color, and she had caring bronzed eyes. To tell you the truth she looked like Balto's cousin.

Conri was a dark metallic coal color, along his back ran a line of black, his back was flawlessly strait, his tail raised high and proud, amber eyes, and his head was head high in the position of dominance. He was the king of wolves.

"Avery," Sophia's soft voice brought me out of my thoughts, "My parent's and I would like to talk to you, alone." I nodded and followed the three wolves into the forest. Miko trailed behind me until Conri looked back and glared at him. Miko's tail slunk to his belly, and he lay down. Something told me that Miko had been ordered to lie down out of a silent message from Conri, wolf language.

"Avery, Aslan has sent you to us for a reason." Conri growled, "You are the carrier. You can see into the past, present, and future. This is a gift that comes with a heavy burden. Those who carried it before you are here to help you also."

"J.J." I thought.

"So you know of one." Amoux purred, "She was a kind girl."

"Have you found the first clue?" Conri asked. My eyebrows knotted in confusion.

"You have not." Sophia inferred. I shook my head.

"Wolves are saviors of time." Amoux said, "We can help you no more then you can be helped."

"Open the diary." Conri ordered. I pulled out the animal skin book and opened it. The book seemed to turn to a page near the middle.

"That's J.J's drawing." I thought. On the page was a large shadow. It was nothing else. As if she had grabbed a chunk of coal and rubbed it on the paper. It reminded me of a tornado, which we had so many times in Iowa. I live in what many people refer to as tornado alley. It's not exactly big on tornados there; we have a few every summer. The worst of tornados are down near Texas. I set the book down on the ground for the three wolves to see.

"A shadow!" Sophia gasped.

"Is that bad?" I asked. All three wolves backed away a step, they're fur fluffed out.

"It depends." Conri growled, "If that shadow is who I think it is…"

"Who?" I asked.

"Wself." Amoux growled, "Originally a wolf, of slaughter. He could also take the form of a human, or on rare occasions a shadow."

"Like a ghost?"

"No," Sophia answered for her parents, "they are much more powerful."

"We must accompany you to Cair Paravel." Conri said, "This is more serious then I imagined for it to be." I nodded and stood up, grabbing the book. We made our way back to camp, and everyone looked up. I made my way over to Miko.

"Do you know when we are leaving?" I asked him, Miko nodded.

"They said we leave tomorrow." Miko informed me, "Why?"

"They are coming with us back to the castle." I told him. Edmund limped over to us.

"What did you find out?" He asked, tenderly sitting down. I drew in the dirt. W-S-E-L-F

"Who's Wself?" Edmund asked. I shrugged and pointed to Conri and Amoux.

"A wolf?" I nodded. I mouthed that I was sorry to Edmund, and motioned to his rib cage.

"It wasn't you're fault." Edmund assured me, "Besides, if you hadn't wandered off, we might not have found Conri and Amoux, and those Narnians might have found us first." I nodded still not believing him.

"You'd best get some sleep." Edmund said struggling to get up again, before hobbling off. I sighed. Edmund was so difficult. I saw Peter smirking at my expression, and I stuck my tongue out at him. He just shook his head and looked away.

Edmund and Peter seemed to wear identical scowls as we rode through the forest. It was more of concentrated scowls though. It reminded me of the boys at my school when they were playing football. One of everyone's favorite games to play was scooter soccer. That was a fun game. For those of you who have never played scooter soccer; you ride on the small scooters on you're butt, then there is a large rainbow ball. You have to get the ball to touch a certain wall depending on what team you're on, but you can only use you're hands. The ball popped way too many times when we used our feet. For some reason the memory was faint… as if fading away.

"What's wrong?" I heard Miko ask quietly. I looked down and realized that I was wearing a slightly sad and confused look.

"It's just that… I feel so entranced by everything that's happening here, I've forgotten about our world." I informed Miko, "I can't even remember the name of my parents!" Miko looked like he agreed, but he didn't say anything. Sophia padded up next to my chestnut mare.

"Don't worry." She assured me, "The memories will be vague at times, but they never leave you." I smiled at the she wolf. She was so beautiful, sometimes I felt like I wanted to just hug her. I've always wanted a female dog, one that I could relate to. But I was stuck with Miko, because… my brother thought it would be a good idea to get Miko from the neighbor's dog's new batch of pups.

"Hey!" Miko barked, clearly stung by my thought.

"Oops. Sorry." I laughed in my head. Sophia let out a slight snort of laughter before speeding up to walk with her parents. She rubbed up against Amoux before trotting over to Conri and tapping him with her nose under his chin. Conri smiled at his daughter and looked at her with loving eyes. The way he looked at his daughter made me slightly jealous. It made me miss my family back at home. I missed Jake always teasing me. I missed going to the creek and even school!

Memories flooded my mind, and almost broke my heart. I remembered every laugh I ever shared with my friends. Every tear I ever shed. Every time I felt confused or angry. But the one thing I remembered most; was when I learned the truth about myself. The sadness about that day was almost too much to bear. I forced myself to hold together. 'This is for J.J.' I kept reminding myself. But I couldn't help but wonder when I was going to go home.

I finally looked up again to see the horses in front of me come to a halt. I looked down at Miko, confused.

"Why did we stop?" I asked him. In front of us, there were loud footfalls. I shot Edmund a panicked glance, and he returned it. I looked down at Conri.

"We wouldn't have happened to have stopped on frozen water, have we?" I asked. Conri shot me a look full of dread. He bent over the snow and began digging. I slowly got off my horse as I saw a dark figure under the light snow that had fallen. I knelt slowly down by Conri as he stopped digging and stared down at the ice. Sure enough there was a small dark face, with a sharp row of teeth, and what looked to be like arms with claws at the end.

"What is it?" Conri growled in disgust. Did its eye just move?! I jumped up, startled, making Conri take a pace back. Peter and Edmund joined me by the small hole Conri had dug, and stood, one on each side of me.

There was a slight moan on the ice and everyone stepped back a pace. A minor cracking sound. More moaning. I looked down, and nudged the two kings by my side. The fish thing was gone.

"What was tha-?

My though was cut short as something jumped out of the water, and grabbed my ankle in steel jaws, pulling me under.

:) A/N hehe R&R and you might get to find out what happens to Avi (you might also want to pray for a lot of snow so I can get out of school to write more)
