Chapter 3
Lillian woke up with a gasp somehing wasnt right or was it just her "mom? dad!" she called desperatly only to be nudged by her father to wake up it had only been a nightmare. It was about her sighting and it obviously had scared her half to death. She cudddled up next to Humphrey and started crying lightly while he said "its ok sweetie its gonna be just fine." Eventually his words got to her and she calmed down accepting that it had only been a nightmare nothing real. By that time everyone including her brothers were looking at her very concerned. "Whats going on sis" asked Wilson and she looked at him and said "well remember how i came in here screaming I JUST SAW A WEREWOLF?" he replied "yeah how could i fucking forget" then he quickly put his paw over his mouth. Humphrey looked like he was ready to muzzle that pup "oops" Wilson said with embaressment and fear mixed together. Kate looked mad enough to throw him off the cliff but instead she simply said "watch your language young one" Wilson nooded "sorry it just slipped" he said then he shut up so his sister could finish her explanation. I dreamed that whatever it was came into the territory and killed us all while i watched in horror Humphrey and Kate both just looked at each other this was getting serious maybe there was more to this after all.
Flora and Winston were both watching the whole scene from the very ledge the original creature had used for all of his spying techniques. "How cute she is scared of me and i aint done nothing yet" oh that southern american tone flora had would annoy Winston so much. Of course he also knew how importanat this alliance would be plus they had banished him practically and they had basically repopulated the entire pack back and they had an entire fresh group of new alphas which posed a challenge to the two. Of course tonight they planned on taking first blood for Flora and a little bit of revenge for Winston it was going to be a productive one for sure. They both left the ledge they were sitting on and headed back to Winstons den. So tonight was going to bring memories back for everyone after all.
It was just after midday in Jasper. Kate and Humphrey were over at Tyler and Kayla`s eating a big piece of caribou while discussing Lillian`s sighting. "I still think she was just seeing things" Tyler said not looking or feeling concerend. "I belive her" Humphrey said "she wouldnt lie about something this serious" he finished Kate looked at him with s bit of doubt in her eyes and yet they seemed full with worry. Humphrey noticed this and asked her if anything was wrong she nodded and said i just think that if there is something similar to that thing we fought last year that it will target our family especially the pups. Humphrey knew why she was worried he was too so he decided that they would do a little bit of looking around to see if anything unusual came up. They finished the meal and organized a meeting area they also decided to leave the pups in the nurses care for the night. As the sun began to drop lower into the sky thing seemed to get tenser and tenser by the minute.
Kate and Humphrey told the pups to behave and hoped it wouldnt be too much trouble for Laila and her mate John to take care of them. "No it wont be any trouble and they can meet my daughter im sure they be just fine. Humphrey thanked Laila as did Kate and they both left for Howling Rock to meet Kayla and Tyler. When they arrived Tyler seemed scared out of his Wits while Kayla was looking around nervously "What the hell is wrong with you two" Humphrey asked. Kayla simply said "creature in the forest right next to the river" Humphrey looked over where She was pointing and low and behold a creature with pierceing blue eyes along was crouched and nearing the dens. She wasnt along eithier just behind her was a wolf then it hit him, Winston had survived that fall into the water he was still alive. Humphrey felt rage enter him as he tolf them all to come on and kill the two. They obeyed as Humphrey told them Winston was down there with it and that he looked diffrent and much wilder. They approached the two very quickly but by the time they got were the pair had been it was too late the thing was in a den with Winston. There was screaming and growling then the pair left then den and in minutes they had completely vanished. Hunphrey looked back at the den then a feeling of dread came over him. That was Laila and John`s den the pups had been inside.
Humphrey and Kate were both gone in a complete flash running down a small hill to get to the den and they entered to a grusome scene but there was only one wolf that had been killed. John lay in a pool of his own blood from where he had been ripped open part of his throat lay next to him while Laila was crying and cursing the creature. Humphrey and Kate walked all the way in and Kate simply said "we tried to stop them we are sorry." Laila simply nodded a little as Kate took the pups and started to head home they were lucky the pups were in a state of shock especially Lillian who had now had a close encounter and seen something no wolf should ever see. They all entered their den and though they tried to sleep none would come. Their nightmare was about to start for the third time and this time it was more than just them in danger.
