Chapter 5
Humphrey and Lilly kept running after what they saw and they soon found a small den.
"How about we go inside?" Humphrey suggested.
"Fine, but you first, be careful… I don't want my new boyfriend getting hurt." Lilly replied. Humphrey blushed under his fur. Humphrey entered the den which looked like it was torn apart. As soon as he entered he saw two wolf corpses laying on the ground, the corpses were laying in a puddle of blood and there was blood on the walls that spelled out LEAVE! Humphrey was kind of frightened himself. He felt something brush up against his side, he quickly turned his head to see it was Lilly.
"Lilly don't look." But it was to late. Lilly saw the bodies and ran out of the den. Humphrey chased after her. He found her right outside the entrance, Lilly was sobbing.
"Lilly are you oka-" Lilly interrupted his sentence.
"Those wolves they were just slaughtered." Lilly had her face buried in her paws.
"It's oka-" Humphrey was interrupted again, but this time by a loud noise and a whimper coming from inside.
"I think someone's still alive in there!" Humphrey said as he ran back in followed by Lilly.
"Hello!" "Hello!" Lilly and Humphrey both called out. They saw a blur of blue fur dash past them and into one of the back rooms. They headed further back and saw a shadow behind a rock.
"Hey, are you alright." Lilly asked as she saw a trail of blood leading to behind the rock.
"Lilly, I think we should go." Whispered Humphrey.
"No, I think whoever it is, is hurt, I want to help." Lilly moved closer.
"Stay back!" They heard someone shout from behind the rock. It sounded like a young wolfs voice, around the age of themselves.
"We aren't going to hurt you. It's alright." Lilly said in a soft voice.
"How *sniffle* can I trust you?" The wolf said, trying to hide his sobs.
"My name's Lilly, I'm here with my boyfriend Humphrey." Humphrey couldn't believe what he just heard, she called him her boyfriend.
"It's alright, we just want to help."
The wolf started to peak from behind the rock. He slowly walked towards Lilly limping, she saw scratch marks on the side of the wolf bleeding. The wolf got closer, but after a few steps the wolf yelped and fell over.
"Please.. help me.." The wolf said as he started to lose consciousness. Lilly ran over to help. She lifted him up on her back and said.
"We're not losing you, hang in there. Humphrey, get some big leaves and some vines or tree sap, QUICK!"
The wolf started to speak, but this time softer. "Thank.. you." The wolf said as he closed his eyes. Lilly quickly brought him outside and laid him down. She began licking his wounds, when she looked closer you could see the scratches spelled out. LEAVE
Lilly climbed on top of his side to help stop the bleeding. "Hurry back quick Humphrey." She thought as a tear ran down her cheek.
A/N Ohhhhhh, don't you just love cliffhangers, they send chills down my spine.
