Chapter One(1)-The Talk

Author's Note: Hello again everyone. While I was trying to think of what to type for the next chapter of my story, Alpha and Omega:Reminiscence, the idea for this story popped in my head. I'll attempt to make it as long as possible. I'm still not sure if many people slightly enjoy my A&O writing. Well anyway, this story takes place three weeks after the events of the first movie. Please enjoy the first chapter. And don't forget to leave a review so I can know how this is going.

Jasper Park, Canada-Western Territory of the Unified Packs-13:27:09(1:27 P.M.)

As the sun was at it's peak in the sky, a gray and black wolf with blue eyes walked away from his group of three friends. They had just completed another exciting run of logboarding. Even though with the recent unification of the packs, most of the omegas still had nothing to do. However, along with the unification came new or changed laws, as well new traditions. This particular omega would be the first to experience one of the changes.

One of the wolf's friends turned to him and asked, "Where are you going Humphrey?" The wolf now identified as Humphrey turned and responded. "Sorry guys. I have to go meet Kate and some alphas about something. Keep Shakey and Mooch in line until I get back, Salty." He finished with a chuckle. Salty laughed as well. "You got it. See you later man." The two nodded to each other as Humphrey left in the direction of the head alpha's den.

After about four minutes he arrived at the slope leading up to the entrance. He entered, expecting to find Kate, Winston, and some other alphas. Instead, he found Tony and Eve. Both remained silent as he stood across from them. After thirty seconds, Eve instructed him to sit.

Tony spoke. "Alright omega, I'm guessing that you're not aware as to what you're doing here." Humphrey simply nodded. The older wolf continued. "Well, I'll skip to the point then. You know how we changed some laws and added new traditions right?" Humphrey immediately stood. "This isn't about Kate and I again is it?" Tony shook his head. "No. If it was, Winston would have handled that. This is more serious. Sit back down."

Humphrey sighed in relief and took the same sitting position he held before. "Then what is it?" The alpha of the Eastern territory chuckled a little. "Let me tell you before you interrupt." He suddenly stopped laughing. "All of the alphas and most of the betas agreed that we should hold a competition each year. There would be a fight that is held between an alpha and an omega."

Humphrey nodded, taking in the new information. "What does this…have to do with me?" he nervously asked, already dreading the answer. Tony sighed. "You were nominated as the first omega to participate in this. You will be against my son, G-" The omega cut him off. "Barf…." He said the name with a growl. "Well at least he gets to remove the little coyote from his life."

Eve laughed. "Don't worry Humphrey. The fight will not be to the death. Just until one of you starts bleeding heavily or goes unconscious." Tony glared at her. "You're probably not helping him." She rolled her eyes and spoke to Humphrey again. "You have two days to get ready. Garth should be informed already. Or at least he's about to be."

Tony looked at the omega, who now had a look of sadness on his face. "What's wrong with you?" Humphrey sighed. "What if I fail? What if Garth goes too far? What if…if Kate isn't proud of me anymore, and everyone looks at me as the weak omega I was meant to be?" The alpha looked him in the eyes. "Try to have some faith in yourself. Stop being all negative and depressed, or you won't stand a chance."

Something inside the omega snapped with that sentence. He pounced on Tony and growled in his face. "You don't think I can handle myself in a fight?! You think that I'm weak and don't stand a chance?! Well, why don't we see how tough you are?!" He hit the alpha in the face with his paw, leaving three claw marks. Eve pushed Humphrey off of Tony and knocked him out with a single motion, as she could feel him easily resisting.

The Eastern wolf stood and recollected himself. "What was that?!" Eve stared down at the unconscious omega and sighed. "I don't know. He's always been so quiet and peaceful. Who knew something like that could set him off?" Tony scoffed. "No kidding. I was only trying to encourage him. Oh well. Hopefully Winston and Kate are having better luck than us." Eve only nodded slightly and lifted Humphrey onto her back and moved him to one of the corners of the den.

Four Minutes Earlier

Winston and Kate were on their way towards the eastern side of the territory to meet with Garth about the new tradition. Kate of course had no idea why they were going there. She was actually told that her and her father would meet Tony and have a meeting about cleaning a few things up. She bothered not to question however and went along with her father.

They approached what used to be called the dividing river. Now they only call it THE river, since they were no longer separating anything. As they were about to cross, they heard rustling in one of the bushes. Kate got into a defensive stance, ready to pounce on anyone that came through. However, after two seconds Garth emerged. Winston put a paw on Kate's shoulder, preventing any accidental attack.

Garth was slightly surprised to see the two. "Oh, hey guys. I was actually about to head into your terri-um, sector or whatever so you didn't have to make the trip." Kate tilted her head a bit. "What are you-" Winston stopped her. "Ah, yes. Please, take a seat." The flaming brown colored alpha nodded and sat down directly across from Kate's father.

"So, what is it that I was called here about?" Kate stared on at the two, surprised herself that Garth was here and was SUPPOSED to meet them. That could only mean one thing. She had been lied to. Winston responded to Garth's question. "Well I'm sure that you're aware of that new tradition about the alphas and omegas, correct?" He simply nodded. "Good. Well you were nominated to participate in the contest. I know that you will do well. However, you may not like who you have to go up against."

Kate interrupted, somewhat rudely. "I'm sorry. What the hell are you two talking about? Go up against in what?" Garth tilted his head. "Wait, you didn't tell her?" Winston shook his head. "It's not important if she knows or not. She is my daughter and will never have to participate in such a thing. Just know that you have two days to prepare. Tony will tell you about your um...opponent."

Garth nodded, slightly confused now as to why Kate hadn't been informed of this. Garth already knew that he would be fighting someone. Kate however was not informed of the meeting the alphas had five days ago. Winston interrupted his thoughts and said, "Well I will see you in two days. Good luck, and remember to prepare yourself." With that, the alpha of the west stood and began to head back home. Kate stood after a few more seconds and followed behind her father.

'What could they be hiding?' she thought. However, no suggestions came into her mind. Little did she know that she would find out soon enough. However, she may not be happy with what she hears.

A/N: Well there goes the first chapter. I hope that you all enjoyed it. Please let me know what you think. So long for now people. -Whiskey
