A/N: a warm hello to anyone who is reading this, so I had to think a lot about how I wanted to write this story to fit in with the later chapters and I changed a few things that have like major impact on the future and probably make it a little longer before I complete the story. So if you like don't get the point of this chapter just hold on everything will make sense in the future. And oh yeah in the next chapter I will post a question which you have to answer and if you get it right, you will get a shoutout from me and get a favorite and follow on all of your stories! I will also favorite yourself too. I also want to ask everyone who reads my stories to be kind enough and also favorite the winner but I can't promise everyone will do that but I will ask them :) this was just a heads up! so be ready for all the hints you get in this chapter and the next!
On with the story:
"hey… wake up!" whispered a beautiful voice softly. I felt someone nudge my side slowly as I opened my eyes." Good morning Mr. snoring bear!" said the voice giggling softly as I felt a wet tongue brush against my face. I pushed them away feeling grossed out by their act making them to giggle even harder." Eewww! Why did you do that?" I said in an annoyed tone as I rubbed m paw over my face to clean it." Because I brought you breakfast." Said the she-wolf cheerfully dragging a big dear leg in her jaws. I quickly forgot about her as I walked to the delicious looking food as my stomach growled in hunger." Hungry now, are we?" she asked smiling in a silly way.
I ignored her as I bite trough the fresh meat with my newly grown teeth. She reminds silent and watched me till I finished with a loud burp!" excuse you!" said the golden tan pup frowning." Oh come on give me break! This was the best things I've eaten in days! In fact, this was the most delicious meat I've had in my whole life! What is it called?" I asked rubbing my belly." It's dear meat you dummy." She said rolling her eyes.
After a moment of awkward silence between us, she decided to brake it." So what you name? I don't its Mr. snoring bear, is it?" the pup asked tilting her head." It defiantly isn't! my name's Humphrey and I'm from the northern pack of buffalo wood park." I replied as stood proudly. "what about you? I can't just call you cute now can I?" I said sitting back down." You can call me Kate." She said blushing like a red apple.
" so how are your wounds? Do they still hurt?" she asked trying to change the subject of our conversation." No, other than my knee I am doing fine. All thanks to you of course." I said pointing to my left knee which was wrapped in leafs." You healing speed in really remarkable! All your bruises have disappeared without even leaving a scar and your knee should heal in a week or two noticing that it did snap in two!" she replied replacing the old leaves with new ones.
"so why are you helping a lone pup you barely know? I mean we've only met for like five days and you've helped me, brought me food and cured my wounds! That not something you do for no reason." I asked as she attended to my wounds." Why shouldn't I? you're a fellow wolf in need of help; that's enough reason to help anyone! Trust me you would get the same with everyone from the pack I live in." she answered finishing replacing the leaves.
" hey, why don't come back to the pack with me?! I'm sure my father will accept you in the pack! I mean, why shouldn't he, your pup in need of a house and your kind and funny too which I like a lot!" she said smiling with excitement." Whoa whoa whoa! Hold on a second, are you telling me that you're the alpha's daughter?!" I asked frowning." Yeah, I mean I also have a little sister but I'm the one who's going to be the next leader. Why?" she asked looking confused.
'great! Another wolf which I can never be with!' I complained to myself in my mind." It's nothing but I can't come with you." I said coldly walking back to the small cave." And why is that?" she asked in a annoyed and sad tone, tapping her paw on the ground." I'm waiting for my parents, I promised them that I would wait for them until they found me." I said from over my shoulder." OH!" was the only thing she said before turning around and leaving me with the deadly silence as my only company.
END OF DREAM: back to the present Humphrey
"wake up you piece of shit!" shouted an angry wolf. I groaned in pain as I was dragged on the wet dirty ground by some ropes which were tied around my wrists. Felt a claw dig deep in my side slicing my insides apart. I screamed in agony as I threw up some blood." Who the hell are you? What do you want with me?" I asked coughing up some more blood." OH, me? I'm just a nobody but I'm bring to somebody who is very powerful! Now shut up and drink this shity water before I tore your insides unto the floor." Answered the angry wolf as he spotted on me. I tried to close my mouth but I felt a paw get a grip on my neck as he made me drink some not so refreshing water and then we hit at the back of neck, I was cast to the realm of dreams once again.
START OF NIGHTMERE: back to that night
I was running! Was I running to something? I didn't know! Was I running away from something? I didn't know! All I knew was the feeling that I was in danger, so I did what every wolf around my age would do; I ran! I ran under the night's sky with small tree branches being my only protection from the attackers who had enslaved our pack. One by one I saw my fellow wolves get knocked down by the claws of those who were chasing us.
I was panting and my heart was pound like a horse in fear! I dear of what you may ask? Well, I fear of being the only one who survives! Being on my own with no friends or allies having my back! Having to bare the pain of losing all my family right in front of my eyes! That is why I ran with all my might but I had seen the scene so many times in my nightmare that I already knew what waited for me at the end.
The worst thing was the I couldn't change it no matter how hard I tried I just had to run and run and run until it got me! I could see Sarah running right next to me and behind were our parents. well, mine's and her mother because her dad was the first one who got caught again! I felt sorry for the leader, he was very strong yet very kind! He sacrificed himself in order to buy us time as we trapped the leader of the bad wolfs in a cave by rolling a big rock on top of the entrance!
I felt a twist of wind right behind my neck as I claw was trying to get a hold of my neck but it was countered by Sarah's mother who was a fully trained alpha. Actually, now that I think about it; she is the only one capable of defending all four of us at the moment! I turned around to see who is chasing us only to be slashed right under the outline of my neck by a claw. I managed to get a glimpse of what he looked like, he was a rather small black wolf with only three legs and a missing eye! It surprised me how well he ran without his front-right leg and how keen his single eye saw through the darkness of night! But after reliving the same nightmare for all this time I'm still not used to what was about the happen!
"with the power in my right, and with all my might, I call upon lighting to lighten up the night's sky!" yelled the three legged wolf as if he was howling to the moon but there was no moon so it looked pretty awkward! In split of second the clouds twisted into each other and formed a black cloud.
I knew what was going to happen, in matter of seconds the night's sky split in two by the strike of lightning and guess where it hit? Yup, that's right, it landed right in front of our path causing a tree to fall down and splitting our group of five in two leaving me with Sarah on one side and our parents on the other side. Yeah, I know right, couldn't get any worse than this eeh? Well, that's where you are wrong! because it always gets worse!
As we were running on the side of a river where the pack got water from, Sarah suddenly turned to face me. "Humphrey listen! We don't have much time but I need to tell you this! If you survive this, I need you to go south and find the western pack; there you need to join their pack and wait for your parents or any other survivors! Do you understand?" she said quickly between her pants. I nodded slightly confused and majorly shocked." Wait, why did you say if I survived? What about you?" I asked trying to keep up with her.
"well, someone has to distract them while the other hides!" she said sarcastically as rain dropped on our faces." Why should that somebody be you? I am a better distraction!" I said as the rain got heavier." That is not the plan! I need you to get to western pack." She shouted over the now thunder storm that was showering down on us." Why?" I shouted back, slowly losing speed as my muscles burned from all the running.
"because …" she as bumping into me. I grasped for air but instead of air I felt her lips smash into mine." I love you!" she said letting go of me as I fell down into the river.
"Saaaraahhhh!" I shouted as I tried to swim against the current but my tiny paws but it soon got the better of me and I was flashed away. I struggled to keep my on above the water but I barely survived the floating pieces of bark and tree logs. I got hit and cut so many times that I couldn't remember where did I got them from. I tree log smashed me into a big rock and I felt my knee crack into sherds! I yelped in pain which caused me to drink a lot of water.
I moved my paws around desperately trying to reach air but I got pushed down try after try. My vision was getting darker and darker, I felt myself getting lighter as if I was a feather floating on the air slowly draining to the bottom.' No, I need to survive! I have make Sarah's sacrifice count!' I thought pushing like my life depended on it which it did! I grabbed hold of a big piece of bark which was floating rather smoothly than other and pulled myself inside of it.
I never would have thought that I could be so happy just for being able to breath! I coughed up some water and laid back on bark as the rain showered down on me. sure, I was wounded and was bleeding like hell and I had a broken knee but at least I was alive! To tell you the truth, I didn't even think about Sarah at that moment because I was so tired that if I didn't die from blood loss I sure would from exhaustion!
A/N: okay I know short chapter, long latency and all but I swear to god! God doesn't want me to write this story! You ask why? Well. I'll just mention a few things: first my laptop's battery broke! Second when I replace it I notice that my charger is broken so I have to open up the laptop and fix it and then my screen doesn't work and I have to give to a repair shop to fix it which took a whole week of my time and after that found out I didn't save it so guess what? Yup I had rewirte the whole thing! And don't even get me started on my school which I had to deal with too! So idk find in your heart to forgive or something and keep reading for the big prize on the next chapter!
love out, live on
