"Your ride home." Marcel says as he opens a door on a vehicle as the group sneaks over to it.
"Quick! Get in!" Paddy says.
"Great. I don't like being boxed up like this but better than nothing I guess." Alexis says as she looks into the vehicle before the group sees two humans coming out of the building.
"Hide!" Paddy says as the group hides.
"That right there is Garn and Debbie Theocarcus. Lucky for you they travel every year to Jasper right after Sawtooth." Marcel says.
"The day's looking pretty and so is my woman. This is the song we met to. Come here you. Let's dance." Garn says as he begins dancing with Debbie as some music begins playing from the vehicle causing Alexis and Garth to move and dance to avoid being spotted before Garth ends up holding Alexis and seeing Garn is holding Debbie and kissing her.
"Uh sorry." Garth says as he nervously gets off Alexis.
"No problem." Alexis says nervously.
"Get inside now. Get inside. Quick. Good luck you two!" Paddy says as Alexis and Garth jump inside as the vehicle takes off.
"We will be watching out for you from above!" Marcel shouts as he and Paddy fly after the vehicle.
"Well I'll be watching out for you. He will be breathing heavily." Marcel says.
*Timeskip*
Later as Alexis feels the vehicle stop moving she quietly opens the door and looks outside to see the couple going inside and looks back to see Garth is asleep.
"Garth?" Alexis asks as she receives no response from Garth before sighing and jumping out of the vehicle.
"They're better off without me." Alexis says as she begins walking off before hearing something drop and looks to see two humans staring at her.
"It's a wolf! Max bring that gun!" One of the humans shouts before the other human runs into the building and comes back out with a gun and points it at Alexis as she backs up in alarm while hearing the vehicle that Garth is in starting back up again in preparation to leave.
"This is it for you wolf. Any last wishes?" The human asks as he prepares to shoot Alexis before Garth comes running over and tackles into the human before he and Alexis begin running.
"Max they're getting away!" The other human shouts.
"Garth!? What are you doing?" Alexis asks in alarm.
"Saving you! Just keep running!" Garth shouts before he and Alexis get stopped as a gate closes their only path.
"No! We're trapped." Alexis says in alarm as Garth growls at the humans as they come over and point the gun at them.
"I got you both now." The human says as he fires a shot only to miss and make a hole in the fence as Alexis and Garth escape through it.
*Timeskip*
"What were you thinking? Why did you get out? That was our one shot at getting home as quick as possible." Garth asks angrily as he and Alexis are walking.
"Look I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you lose your way home. Let's just find a place to bed down for the night. This storm isn't getting any better." Alexis says.
"I'm going home and I'm not stopping. It's my responsibility and I have to get back." Garth says.
"Yeah. I keep hearing so much about the mighty Alpha responsibility and pride." Alexis says.
"What is your problem with me? What did I do to you? You act like you hate me and we just met not long ago." Garth says angrily.
"Because you're an Alpha. You're just like the rest. You treat me like an Omega and all you ever worry about is your stupid responsibility as an Alpha. Do you even love my sister that you're supposed to marry? Do you even want to do it? Or is that choice already been decided by your pack?" Alexis asks angrily.
"I have to do it! It's my responsibility! I don't want to I have to! Not like I could ever expect an Omega to understand." Garth says angrily.
"You're right. I don't understand. But I understand wanting to protect your pack. I also understand the feeling that you're left with if you can't protect them. I know that all too well given my past. But you are correct about me not understanding an Alpha." Alexis says angrily as Garth's expression softens.
"Your past? What happened?" Garth asks curiously.
"It's not your concern. Go home Garth because I'm not coming with you. Not anymore. You're such a strong and proud Alpha. You can handle yourself. I'm out of here." Alexis says angrily as she turns to leave.
"Fine. I'll get back home by myself." Garth says as he and Alexis leave in different directions.
*Timeskip*
"Stupid Alpha and Omega rules. Stupid pack law. I don't know why I didn't leave sooner. Huh?" Alexis asks as she is walking as the weather gets worse and she hears Garth calling nearby before running and finding Garth sliding down a muddy wall of a fast moving muddy ravine from having tried to get across.
"Alexis help!" Garth shouts in alarm.
"Garth! Hold on!" Alexis says as she looks around for something to use to help Garth.
"Hurry! I'm slipping!" Garth shouts before Alexis stop seeing nothing to use and begins stomping at the ground making large rocks rise up from the water making a bridge next to Garth.
"Garth jump!" Alexis shouts as Garth sees what she is doing.
"How are you doing that!?" Garth asks in surprise and shock.
"Don't worry about that now! Just jump!" Alexis shouts before Garth jumps on the rocks and makes his way over to Alexis.
"You saved me?" Garth asks as he gets over to Alexis safely.
"Of course. I guess that makes us even now." Alexis says as she smiles.
"We were always even. How were you doing that with the rocks?" Garth asks as he smiles.
"I have the ability to control elements. I was born with it. Its why I'm an orphan. My old pack died protecting me over it. Others saw me as a freak for it. Only Kate, Winston, Lilly and Eve know about it and Winston and Eve asked me to never use them after I joined the pack. Both for my safety and to avoid problems in the pack because they didn't think I'd be accepted otherwise. But I've never been accepted anywhere so what else is new?" Alexis asks as she looks down.
"Then why'd you stay?" Garth asks curiously.
"Because when they took me in I wasn't old enough to protect myself or hunt. I taught myself to hunt and fight watching the others in the pack. I wanted to prove I could be useful. Or at least take care of myself. And because I care for the pack. But doesn't really seem like I matter that much. So what choice do I have?" Alexis asks sadly.
"So that's why you left the vehicle. You weren't planning on coming back with me. Were you?" Garth asks as Alexis looks at him.
"Was there ever really any actual reason why I'm needed back home? My only friends were Lilly, Kate, Humphrey and Salty. Though Salty only talked me to because he has interest in me but I don't feel that way toward him. But I've always felt out of place and just never really saw a reason to stay except for survival and gratefulness for having just been took in and cared for." Alexis says.
"For the record I think you're pretty cool. I mean you're definitely not like any wolf I've ever met. And you're not a freak. I think you're beautiful and kind. I'm sorry we got off on the wrong paw like we did. And I'm sorry for snapping at you. None of this is your fault. I appreciate you opening up to me." Garth says as he smiles at Alexis.
"Thanks for listening to me. And I'm sorry for acting like I did. It's not your fault either. I may despise pack law but you're not like the other Alphas. You're good. I like you." Alexis says as she smiles kindly.
"I like you too. Now uh let's get out of the rain." Garth says as Alexis chuckles.
"Oh now you wanna go bed down huh?" Alexis asks as Garth chuckles.
"Let's just say the that little near death experience made me rethink your suggestion. And bedding down next to a pretty female isn't so bad." Garth says as he and Alexis begin walking.
"And I think I can stand laying beside a handsome Alpha." Alexis says.
"And thanks by the way. For saving me." Garth says.
"You're welcome." Alexis says as she and Garth walk off.
