P.V. Normal the next morning with Humphrey
Humphrey: I woke up when I heard some noises next to me, when I looked I could see that it was my puppies, "I really am a father" I thought as I looked at them, various emotions grew inside me, from happiness and pride, to fear and doubt, I carefully began to caress them, "It looks like they are hungry," I said to myself, at that moment I saw how Kate also began to wake up, "Good morning, darling," I said, smiling
Kate: I yawned and said smiling, "Good morning, Handsome," then I gave him a quick kiss
Humphrey: "How do you feel?" I asked
Kate: "Quite better, although I'm still tired," I said
Humphrey: "I'm not surprised, it was pretty hard," I said
Kate: "You can't even imagine it, but it was worth it," I said, smiling as I looked at our puppies
Humphrey: I also looked at our puppies and said smiling, "They are beautiful"
Kate: "Yes they are," I said with a smile, "We should give them names," I said
Humphrey: "Do you have any in mind?" I asked
Kate: "Yeah, I had a lot of time to think about some, what about you?" I asked curious
Humphrey: I laughed a little nervously and quickly said, "Yes too," but the reality is that I didn't have any names in mind, so many things happened and that training was so complicated that I had forgotten to think of names
Kate: "That's great, I want to hear them," I said, smiling
Humphrey: "Sure," I said while I was thinking about what to do, but at that moment a wolf approached the entrance to the cave
"Sir, I know you are with your family, but we need you," said the wolf from outside the entrance
Kate: "What do you want now? You just got back" I said a little annoyed
Humphrey: "I better go see what happens, remember we still have to deal with sigmas" I said
Kate: I sighed and said, "Yes, I understand, but come back as soon as possible"
Humphrey: "I will," I said, nodding, before leaving the cave, "Narrowly saved," I thought with relief, then I asked the wolf, "What's wrong?"
"We have several sightings on the borders, it is believed that they are the sigmas" the alpha informed
Humphrey: "Have they gotten close?" I asked
"Not yet, they have only seen multiple shadows moving through the nearby forests," the alpha explained
Humphrey: "I see, it is possible that most of the reports are imaginations of the alphas, they must still be altered by yesterday's attack" I said
"It's quite possible, but it was better to inform you," said the alpha
Humphrey: "And I appreciate it, I will personally check the borders to see if I detect any suspicious activity" I said
"Thank you, sir, I'm sure that will calm everyone down," the alpha said relieved
Humphrey: "By the way, have you heard from Catalina?" I asked curiously
"I think I saw her walking towards the healers' cave," the alpha said
Humphrey: "I understand, surely she wants to visit Jhosh" I said to myself, "Well I'll go to the borders, keep the alphas on alert until further orders"
"Yes sir," said the alpha before running away
Humphrey: I nodded and ran towards the borders, "At least this will give me time to think of some names" I thought
Meanwhile with Catalina
Catalina: I had come to visit Jhosh, but he was still asleep, apparently, they gave him a strong sedative so he could rest, "If I had arrived earlier, they wouldn't have hurt you so much" I thought sadly, at that moment I heard someone enter and When I turned around, I saw Scoot along with the two puppies from the other night, "You should be rested" I said
Scoot: "I know, but I was worried about Jhosh, and these two kept insisting that they wanted to see him," I explained
Cristal; "How is he?" I asked worried
Catalina: "The healers said that he was recovering, but that they had to give him a strong painkiller so that he could rest" I explained
Tent: "What is that?" I asked confused
Scoot: "It's a medicine that relaxes you to the point that you hardly feel any pain," I explained
Crystal: "How long will it take for him to wake up?" I asked
Catalina: "I'm not sure exactly, but the healers told me that he will probably wake up in a few hours," I explained
Cristal: "I see, can we stay and wait?" I asked
Catalina: "I don't know if it's a good idea for some puppies to stay in this place, it's not the best of environments," I said thoughtfully
Scoot: "Not to mention that it could be harmful to Jhosh and the other injured wolfs," I said just as thoughtfully
Cristal: "Please, I promise we will behave" I said while I making pleading eyes
Scoot: I looked at Catalina and saw that she just shrugged, so I said, "Okay, but you have to behave and not bother anyone"
Cristal: "Yes, we will be good puppies," I said, nodding
Tend: "If that's what my sister wants," I said nodding
Catalina: I approached Scoot and I asked curiously, "Where did these puppies come from?"
Scoot: I explained how Jhosh found them and brought them here, also how they had become attached to him
Catalina: "I understand, that explains a lot" I said, nodding
Scoot: "That's right, I guess they'll take care of them" I said
Catalina: "I wouldn't see a problem with that, but I should talk to him well," I said
Scoot: "It's better to make those issues clear," I said, nodding, "By the way, how long do you plan to stay?" I asked
Catalina: "A couple more hours, I hope to see him wake up and be able to talk to him," I said
Scoot: "I understand, would you mind taking care of the pups? I would like to return to my cave to rest and spend a little time with my pups" I asked
Catalina; "Sure, no problem," I said nodding
Scoot: "I appreciate it," I said, then I turned to the pups and I said, "I'm going back to my cave to rest, but you can stay with Catalina, she will take care of you"
Cristal: "Okay, sir," I said nodding
Scoot: "See you later" I said goodbye before leaving the cave
Meanwhile with Humphrey
Humphrey: I'm checking the borders and I hadn't found any trace of the sigmas, "I knew it was too early to send reconnaissance, they must still be recovering from our last encounter" I said to myself, at that moment I noticed something strange, I approached to inspect and I was able to notice something that surprised me, "someone hid his trail here, but I hid it too well, so much so that it seems that nature could not leave it this perfect" I said to myself while inspecting an area, "If I hadn't done the delta training, I would never have noticed, that means that whoever did it has great infiltration capabilities, it must have been those from the shadow society, as I feared, they are already watching us" I thought as I inspected the area in more detail
At that moment Candu approached
Candu: "Did you find anything?" I asked curious to see how he impressed the area in detail
Humphrey: I shook my head and said, "Nothing, I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything," it was best not to tell anyone what I found, I wasn't sure who else might be listening and you know I suspect something, they will surely act faster
Candu: "I understand, you did take it very seriously" I said
Humphrey: "I must make sure there is nothing that endangers the pack," I said
Candu: "You're right, with the sigmas around we must be extra cautious" I said, nodding
Humphrey: "Exactly," I said, nodding
Candu: "By the way, Kate is asking about you and it seems like she is getting impatient," I informed
Humphrey: I looked at the sky and noticed that it was already early in the morning, "I spent hours checking the borders" I said, surprised and worried
Candu: "That's right, you seemed so focused on it that no one wanted to interrupt you," I explained
Humphrey: "Oh no, Kate must be upset" I said worriedly
Candu: "That's what the alpha who saw her told me," I said
Humphrey: I swallowed and said, "I understand"
Candu: "Good luck, friend," I said before leaving
Humphrey: I sighed as I watched him walk away and I thought worriedly, "It's better that I come back, although I haven't thought of any good names yet" after walking for several minutes I arrived at the cave, "I'll be back" I said timidly as I looked out the entrance
Kate: "It took you a lot of time," I said, annoyed
Humphrey: "Sorry there were reports of certain sightings at the borders and I had to make sure they were" I explained
Kate: "Yes, they told me that, but it took you more than it should," I said seriously
Humphrey: "I know, in the end I didn't find a trace of the sigmas, but I found something else that I had to investigate in depth," I explained
Kate: "What was it?" I asked curiously
Humphrey: Quickly inspect the surroundings to make sure we could talk about it safely
Kate: "Is it that serious?" she asked, surprised to see how cautious he was being
Humphrey: I just nodded and when I finished inspecting, I said, "During training I discovered that the real danger is not the sigmas, they are simply pawns in someone else's game"
Kate: "Whose?" I asked worried
Humphrey: "the shadow society" I said seriously
Kate: "The society of shadows? But they are just a story to scare puppies," I said, confused
Humphrey: "Because that's what they want everyone to believe, but they're very real," I said seriously
Kate: "What do you want?" I asked
Humphrey: "I have no idea, I only know that they were the real causes of the war and the near extinction of the alpha elite and the sigmas," I said
Kate: "They might want to finish what they started," I said
Humphrey: "I also considered it, but it doesn't make much sense because waiting until we were more organized, before we were easy prey" I said
Kate: "And if that is precisely the reason," I said
Humphrey: "What do you mean?" I asked confused
Kate: "Before they were disorganized and probably did not represent a threat, but now the story is different," I explained
Humphrey: "They're worried about what we can do," I said thoughtfully
Kate: "It's just a theory," I said
Humphrey: "I know, but I hadn't considered that possibility, although it makes a lot of sense," I said
Kate: "What should we do?" I asked
Humphrey: "I'm not sure, but for now we have to solve the issue of the Sigmas" I said
Kate: "You're right, it's better to take one step at a time," I said, nodding, then I looked at the puppies and saw that they were hungry, so I approached to feed them
Humphrey: I smiled when I saw her with the puppies and said, "I'll go get something to eat"
Kate: "Okay, but this time don't delay, after eating we have to name the puppies" I said
Humphrey: "Don't worry, I won't be late," I said smiling before leaving
Kate: "I hope so," I said, smiling
Humphrey: As I walked, I thought, "Come on, you have to think of good names, I won't be able to buy more time." After several minutes I arrived at the hunting areas where I saw a group of alphas getting ready, "Are you ready to start the hunt?" I asked
"Yes sir, we were about to leave" said one of the alphas attending
Humphrey: "I understand, I will accompany you" I said
"Okay sir," said the alpha while he nodding
Humphrey: We all went hunting without any major complications and we came back with a good hunt, "With this we will be fine for a couple of days" I said smiling
"Okay, thank you for your help, it was much easier than normal," said the grateful alpha
Humphrey: "It was nothing" I said smiling, then I picked up a small deer and took it to my cave, "The food is ready" I said smiling as I entered the cave
Kate: "That's good, I was already getting quite hungry" I said smiling
Humphrey: I nodded and brought the deer closer for us both to eat, once we finished, I asked playfully, "How was it?"
Kate: "Delicious" I said smiling
Humphrey: "That's good," I said, smiling
Kate: "Well, since we already ate, we can start with the names of the puppies," I said, smiling
Humphrey: "Okay," I said, nodding while trying to hide my nervousness
Kate: "Four males and two females were born, it was a large litter," I said, smiling
Humphrey: "That's right, we have a big family," I said, nodding, "What names do you have in mind?" I asked curious
Kate: "I didn't expect there to be so many, I had a name in mind if it was a male and a name if it was a female," I admitted
Humphrey: "I understand you; I didn't expect there to be so many either," I said, nodding
Kate: "What about you? You've kept me waiting all day. I hope you've thought of a good name." I asked as I looked at him
Humphrey: "I only have a couple of names in mind" I said, luckily, I was able to think of some names
Kate: "I want to hear them," I said, smiling
Humphrey: I looked at the puppies and said, "I want one named Esperanza, because that's what she symbolizes"
Kate: "It seems perfect to me, she will be Esperanza" I said while I picked up our smallest puppy, "She was the last to be born and the smallest, but she will grow up to be a big wolf" I said smiling
Humphrey: "Now it's your turn," I said
Kate: "I want our other daughter to be called Estrella, because I know she will be able to guide others even in the darkest situations," I said confidently
Humphrey: "I'm sure he will," I said, nodding, then I looked at one of our sons and said, "He'll be Silver"
Kate: "Silver?" I asked
Humphrey: "That's right, it's a great name," I said, smiling
Kate: I laughed at his comment and said, "Yes, you're right about that," I said, nodding
Humphrey: "Your turn," I said
Kate: "The other name I had in mind was Reiz," I said
Humphrey: "Reiz, like the founder of the Western Pack?" I asked
Kate: "Exactly, he was an ancestor of mine who did great things and I know he can do it too" I said smiling
Humphrey: "That's true," I said, nodding
Kate: "We have two puppies left," I said as I looked at them
Humphrey: "I recognize that look, what are you thinking?" I asked curiously
Kate: "I want one to be called Tristan, I couldn't explain why, but it's a name that seems very cute," I said, smiling
Humphrey: "I don't need any more explanations than that," I said, smiling, then we both stared at the last puppy while we thought of a name
Kate: After a while I said "I can't think of any name that would convince me"
Humphrey: I thought silently some more when one suddenly occurred to me, "What do you think Nova?"
When Humphrey mentioned that name the puppy began to laugh happily
Kate: "It seems like he likes it," I said, smiling
Humphrey: "It seems like that" I said smiling
Kate: "How did you come up with that name?" I asked curiously
Humphrey: "He has a similar origin to Reiz, he was the one who created the elite alphas, it is also said that he was the first Delta that ever existed" I explained
Kate: "I see," I said, nodding, "I think it's a good name," I said, smiling
Humphrey: "So these are our puppies, Estrella, Esperanza, Tristan, Silver, Reiz and Nova" I said while pointing to each puppy
At that moment Catalina ran into the cave
Catalina: "We have a problem," I said seriously
What problem happened? Will they be able to face the shadow society? What will the sigmas do? Keep reading to find out. Don't forget to write reviews of what you think of the story so far
