Hey All, Here I am with another Chapter. In my Last Chapter, I didn't do to well I know. However you can't blame me lol It's been a Minute since I've done any updating. Here's to this chapter being even Better. Enjoy! Forgot to Mention, "[]" Means a slight Time skip if you didn't know.
PREVIOUSLY ON 'Living In SawTooth':
"Needless to Say.. I was given a Second Chance." Sapphire said.
And Now..:
"You were given a second chance is what your telling me?" Humphrey asked with a slightly puzzled look. "That Is Indeed what I'm telling you.." Sapphire replied, nodding her head.
Humphrey sat there next to her and was frozen in his thoughts trying to put the pieces together.
"I'm sorry, but I was there.. I was looking at your dead body.." Humphrey stated, turning his head to face her. "I can believe what you saw, but I'm telling you the Truth. How about we just forget about it and move on..." Sapphire Explained as she got up and stretched out her body. "I guess.." Humphrey added.
The two of them eventually left the hideout which Sapphire brought Humphrey to and headed in the Direction back to the Valley. On their way back to their destination, Humphrey knew he was in Trouble. Kate was waiting for him back in SawTooth and Sapphire was now brought back into his life.. Has Humphrey really moved on from Kate? Or has He possibly Moved on from Sapphire?.. Who will he Have to choose..
"So uh.. Are you seeing anyone..?" Sapphire suddenly asked, turning her attention towards Humphrey. "Am I seeing anyone? Like anyone I'm Interested in..?" Humphrey replied back a little confused. "Yeah of course dummy, What else would I be talking about..?" She responded with a small giggle.
"At the moment; No. I actually got reunited with an old friend, she apparently was forced to move into SawTooth." Humphrey Explained, giving a small smile. "Oh really? It's a 'Her' Huh..?" Sapphire asked, feeling a bit of Jealousy. Humphrey could feel the Tension rising and he quickly spat out, "It's not what you think! I don't like her in That way!"
Sapphire was a little skeptical about his words but she shrugged it off and just responded back with, "Hmph.. If you say so."
After a While of Humphrey trying to explain to Sapphire that she was just a friend, They eventually arrive back at camp and Sapphire parts ways with Humphrey without a word. "What No goodbye? Goodnight..?" Humphrey asked.
"Goodnight." She replied back in a sarcastic tone.
Humphrey rolled his eyes and grinned at her before he walked off in search for a place to relax and sleep. "I wonder what was up with her, What I do wrong?" He asked himself.

That morning, there was a large crowd gathered up in front of the large, pointed rock that Arrow was standing on earlier.
"What's all the commotion for...?" Humphrey said, getting up and stretching. He let out a long and loud yawn before leaving the small den he had found that night and went off to investigate all the commotion that surrounded him.
[Arrow's PoV]
I had just received word that our guards around the territory borders spotted and captured someone who was spying on us. "Hm.. I'll make an example out of whoever it is." I thought.
After a while, The guards showed up in front of my cave and threw in this blonde, skinny, and charming female before me. I looked at them and gave them a nod to dismiss them. As they left, I lowered my head and inspected the female, she seemed very fragile. "Why are you here. What brings you even remotely close to us." I asked her with a serious tone.
She just barely looked up at me and spoke with this raspy and exhausted voice. "I'm... L-Looking for Someone..."
I leaned my head in a bit of confusion and glared at her, my eyes studying her movement. "Who is this you are looking for If I may ask?" I asked. "I'm Sure you wouldn't know him... Humphrey. Humphrey is his name." She replied with a concerning expression. "Humphrey? Why are you searching for Humphrey?" I asked her, somewhat surprised.
Her tail then started to wave around as she very slowly got up. I became a little more cautious of her now that she was level with me. "You Know him...? Is he here...?" She asked me, her expression building this exciting look. "Uh-Erm... No I don't know him." I stated. "However, you were very close to our borders and suspected of being a threat, and in order for me to bring my pack at ease, You will be my example." I added.
[3rd]
Arrow had forced Kate to follow him, eventually ending up at his command stone. They both walked onto it and up to the very edge, Wolves from the pack were gathered and waiting for information to be released by their leader, Arrow. "Attention Brethren, As you've already heard, We've found a spy lurking around our borders and we all know what happens to intruders am I right? We will not tolerate anyone to be of threat to us, nobody with take us down!" Arrow shouted.

Humphrey was just arriving to the center of the crowd and he instantly froze in place. It was Kate, Arrow had her by the Scruff and on the edge of the rock that was hanging highly about camp. He didn't know what to do or say, he just stood there, Frozen. "We Tolerate No Threats!" Arrow yelled, dropping Kate off the stone.
As Kate was about to hit the ground, someone had saved her last minute, breaking her fall.
Humphrey was flattened on the ground after rushing and breaking Kates fall. "Are... You alright?" He said, wheezing from the pressure. She was unresponsive. Humphrey leaned his body over so she would roll off him so he could stand. After getting up, he stepped over Kate and let out this low, and vicious growl, protecting her.
"Arrow You Promised!" He shouted, Looking up at the edge of the rock where Arrow stood.
"I don't remember Promising to leave someone alone if they were spying on us. Do you remember that in the agreement?" Arrow asked as he walked slowly down the rock, eventually being face to face with Humphrey. "She isn't a Spy!" Humphrey claimed. "Oh?.. Than why is she here?" Arrow argued.
"I..- I don't know... But she's innocent!" Humphrey continued.
"Humphrey.. I'll give you a chance. If she is here to cause trouble or If I find out she really is a Spy, I will not hesitate." Arrow said, turning around and walking away, snarling with frustration.
Everyone around them were a bit shocked by the sight they witness before leaving the scene and going back to their own lives.
Humphrey shook his head before lowering his head to Kate and Poking her with his snout. "What are you doing here... How did you get here.." He thought to himself.

Kate was eventually brought into a medical den and treated for whatever she was put through by Arrow.
Humphrey sat there, beside Kate until she would wake up, He couldn't stop trying to wonder why she would show up or how she even could. He left no sign of where he went, she didn't follow him after he left.. did she? "Idiot..." He mumbled.
At That moment, Sapphire walked into the medical den and saw Humphrey sitting next to another Female. "Oh.. Sappi-" Humphrey tried to say. "Who's that?" Sapphire asked, giving me her deadly glare. "Uhm.. This is Um.. Kate..." He explained. "Kate..? Who's Kate?" She asked. Humphrey could sense the jealousy from Sapphire.
[Humphrey's PoV]
Sapphire was getting really jealous and I could sense it. I know how she is. When Girls tried to get close to me back then she was very defensive of me. I didn't know what to say, I was in a very awkward situation.
"I'm his Girlfriend, soon to be Mate." A voice said.
I looked to my side to find Kate awake, when I looked back over to Sapphire, she seemed furious. "I- No- Thats-.." I stuttered out.
"That's Not True! I swear Sapphire! This is the Friend I was talking about! As you can see she's very delusional." I tried to Explain. Sapphire gave me this disgusted look and From that point, I knew I was screwed. "Kate is just a friend." I said, I never agreed or anything to be a Boyfriend or even a Mate." I added.
I looked back at Kate and I could see tears flowing from her eyes. "Shit.." I thought.
When I looked back at Sapphire, She was walking out of the den with an aggressive form. "Fuck.." I thought again.
