Humphrey's POV
As we walk out to the valley I fight my tears that are trying to pour out of my eyes, my brother and his girlfriend are in danger of losing there lives and not only that there's a war happening and if either of them die the pack will be mourning and not be able to fight as effectively and without thinking about how one of the pack leaders brothers is dead. As we reach the peak of the valley where we can all stand and speak to the pack Garth howls to get the pack to the valley and in 20 minutes the entire pack is in the valley and talking wondering why Garth called them. After a while Garth clears his throat and they all calm down and be quiet.
"Ok welcome everyone to this meeting, we have a few things to tell you." he says
"What happened?" asked an alpha near the front
"Well first off Humphrey's brother andrew and his girlfriend Abby have been severely injured and we have been threatened with war by the North." says Garth and when he says the part about Andrew there are audible gasps and then when war is brought up there is even more gasps.
"But we can't go to war!" says an omega receiving nods from wolves around him
"I know you don't want to go to war but you have to its your duty as a member of the pack." says Garth glaring at the wolf and the wolfs ear flatten to his head and he looks down.
"Garth is right we need to teach this pack a lesson about attacking a united pack with allies." says Kate.
"Ok that is all, you need to prepare and train in case of war." says Garth and with that the wolves all leave to go do their normal lives.
"Ok come on guys lets go check on Andrew and Abby." says Cole.
"yeah we are right behind you Cole." says Lilly and then we all head to the medic den.
Andrew's POV
As I fade on and out of consciousness I see wolves working on my wounds, working on Abby's and I see Humphrey and the others looking worried and talking to other medics and every time the medics shake their heads and that just makes them even more worried and Humphrey try's to hug me but Garth stops him and shakes his head and then Humphrey nods and I can see the tears from his eyes falling to the floor. After that I fall into unconsciousness.
4 weeks later
After a while I wake up again to see Abby standing above me and that makes me smile I then weakly say.
"Hey Abby how are you feeling." I say feeling my dry throat move
"Oh Andrew thank god your alive!" she says almost yelling and then she hugs me and I wince from her weight pressing on my wounds I try to hold in my pain but I can and I grunt. She realizes what she did and she jumps up and starts nearly crying.
"I'm so sorry Andrew I forgot."
"Abby its okay I needed that hug." I say smiling st her and rubbing her cheek with my paw.
"Oh thank god! Andrew your alive!" I hear Humphrey yell from the back of the den and then I'm tackled by him and I grunt but hug him back.
"Sorry bro didn't mean to hurt you." he says weakly smiling
"Oh Humphrey it's fine you didn't mean it." I say smiling back.
"Oh hey man your awake." says Garth walking up behind him smiling.
"Hey garth what's happened while I was out?" I say smiling back to him
"Not much, war hasn't started yet but we are preparing for it." says Gart
"Ok that's good." I say to him and as I say that Hutch runs in the den with a worried look on his face.
"Excuse me I hate to interrupt this but we have a slight problem." he says.
"Oh god what now." says Kate
"There is a group of northern wolves around our territory we have not had contact but we wanted to know what you want us to do."
"Ok what we are going to do is we are going to go check on these wolves." says Kate getting up and looking st us.
"I agree." says Humphrey getting nods from Cole, Tori, Lilly, Abby and Garth.
"I'm coming too." I say getting up and stretching.
"No Andrew you are too injured right now stay and rest." says Humphrey
"No Humphrey! I'm not sitting here like a stick in the mud while you guys risk your lives I'm coming and that's that." I say
"Fine Andrew we can't stop you so let's go." says Lilly and with that we head to the north border after 30 minutes of walking we reach the border and see nothing.
"They must have left or something because where is nothing here." says Garth turning to leave. As he does five wolves jump out at us two black furred one grey and the other two red. As they jump out Garth quickly yells at Lilly, Cole and Humphrey to run. They do because they know they won't be able to help much in this if it turns into a fight which is almost inevitable. But before anyone can say anything the wolves jump into fighting stance and two go at Garth, one at Kate, one at Tori, and one stays back watching I look around to see everyone fighting but Abby and me I grab one of the wolves fighting Garth and stab him in the eye he yells in pain and then I throw him into a tree. I feel pain surge through my body from the work i am doing but i continue fighting the enemies. As I turn I see the wolf staying back running at Abby I know she doesn't have time to react so I jump in front of her and when I do I feel his claw to straight across my neck I fall to the ground choking on my blood, I look up to see the wolf chuckling and he comes closer to me and says.
"Now that your going to die your pack will be weak, easy to destroy but we won't kill all of them, we will keep the females for a while." he says grinning Evilly at the last part. I try to say something but I can't and he puts his claw up to kill me and then I see a claw slash through his throat he falls to reveal Humphrey standing there panting. I try to smile but I just cough up blood. I look around the battlefield to see all the enemy wolves dead but one and I see Garth snap the last ones neck. As I see this I see the others running towards me my vision starts to blur and I can feel myself fading and I see Abby standing over of me crying.
"Andrew you can't die on me! Not now! Not ever!" she says crying
"Abby... Good... Bye..." I say and with that I can't breathe anymore and I start choking, I then I feel my heart slow down. I close my eyes and feel myself slip away and I know this is the end.
Humphrey's POV
As I watch Abby cry above Andrew I can feel the tears streaming down my face and I look to Kate to see her coming towards me and when she reaches me she hugs me and I can feel her tears going down my back, as I hug her I hear crying and I look around and see everyone crying even Garth is crying.
"We have to bury him." I say whipping the tears from my face.
"Yes we do and we need the people to know he died a hero." says Garth.
"Yes I agree.. We all do." says Kate
"Ok... let's go." says Cole who I didn't notice was there and with that Garth picks up Andrew and we carry him to the valley. When we get there garth howls for the pack and he sets Andrew down and digs a small hole to put his body in. When the pack gets there they see Andrew's body and a hole and they all are deathly quiet. The only sounds are the sounds of crying from wolves. At first no one says anything but I decide to speak for him.
"Thank you all for coming and as you know and can see my brother is dead." I say
"He was an amazing wolf that may have been a little hard to get along with at first if you didn't like his sarcasm but he was always a fun person and was loyal to the end Which he proved when he sacrificed himself to save his beautiful girlfriend." I stop for a second trying to hold back the tears.
"we may not have known him for a long time but that is not reason enough to not mourn his death he was my brother, he was Coles brother, he was Abby's soul mate and he was a member of this great pack. I swear on my life that we will avenge him, we will make sure his death was not in vain and we will make sure he is remember for being a hero because if it wasn't for him it would be Abby laying here right now but I know he would never except thar he would hate himself for it and he would never move on, while it will be hard we have to move on not now but we will need to live our lives. That is what he would have wanted for all of us." I finish letting a tear fall out of my eye and I sit down throw my head back and howl. After a few seconds of howling I am joined by more and more howls from the crowd and as well finish we all now are heads. And Garth clears his throat and steps forward.
"I would like to say something. All though me and Andrew got of on the wrong foot we became friends and as Humphrey said he was a loyal friend and we will never be the same without him. Rest in peace Andrew." he says with the rest of the pack repeating
"Rest in peace Andrew." after a few seconds Garth looks up and says.
"Now we avenge Andrew." and with that I knew that pack would be wishing that they never screwed with us.
