P.V. Normal with Humphrey and Luz
Humphrey: I was helping Luz get used to having a body, "You sure adapt quickly," I said, surprised to see how quickly she improved
Luz: "Kate's muscle memory helps a lot, although I don't think I'll be at her level for a long time," I said
Humphrey: "That should be enough while she gets back," I said
Luz: "I hope so, but if something happens, I don't know how much help I could be for you," I said with a sigh
Humphrey: "Don't worry about it, whatever happens, I can take care of it," I said confidently
Luz: I gave him an annoyed look, "Haven't you already learned your lesson?" I asked annoyed
Humphrey: "Yes, I know," I said with a sigh
Luz: "Then focus, dark times are coming. That mysterious wolf that attacked them and Scoot's attack may or may not be related, but that would only imply that in the worst case there would be two enemies to face, each with their own objectives and you will not be able to face that alone" I said seriously
Humphrey: "You say it like there's a war," I said
Luz: "I fear it could be worse, a massacre and that is why you must be ready, everyone must be ready" I said seriously
Humphrey: I sighed and said, "I was afraid of that"
Luz: "Have you not wanted to accept it?" I asked
Humphrey: "I didn't want to accept it, we've already been through too much and I don't want others to have to go through any more things like that," I explained
Luz: "I understand you, but denying reality will not make that happen" I said
Humphrey: "I just wanted time to find a way to avoid it without involving the others," I explained
Luz: "Again with that," I said, annoyed and tired
Humphrey: I just stared at the ground
Luz: "Remember what happened to Kate because of that attitude, if you continue like this you will lose everything" I said seriously
Humphrey: "I know, I know, I'm really trying to change, but it's not easy," I said
Luz: "no one said it would be easy, but you have to do it" I said seriously
Humphrey: "You're right about that," I said, nodding
A couple of hours later in the strange herd from which Lind was created or also known as experiment 242
A wolf ran into Doc's cave, "Sir, we have news of Jasper's great pack" he said as he entered
Doc: "It better be important, I'm busy with something," I said seriously
"We have a report from our infiltrator," said the wolf
Doc: "I'm listening," I said a little impatiently
"He says there was a sighting of Toocs," the wolf reported
"Really and any trace of Scott?" I asked
The wolf shook his head and said, "There were no traces of him"
Doc: "They don't usually separate themselves much, it's possible that their visit is only temporary" I said thoughtfully
"Indeed, apparently he left with Kate and Humphrey," the wolf reported
Doc: "Interesting, tell him to let us know when they return and if they see Scoot and Toocs with them, in the meantime I will put everyone on alert to prepare for a possible incursion" I said
"I will inform you," said the wolf before leaving
Doc: "Kate must be about to succumb to 242's ability and without Scoot and Toocs around she is the best chance to beat Humphrey, I can't wait to experiment with his body" I thought while smiling coldly, then I went to organize the experiments operatives for the attack
Not far from there, Lind was listening to everything
Lind: "Damn crazy, so that will be the strategy" I thought angrily, I wanted to defeat my father by myself and prove that I am better than him, not a mere copy, "It would be a shame if we can't recover my father's body" I said to myself while smiling
Several hours later with Humphrey and Luz
Luz: I was lying on the floor while panting, "Having a body has many cons" I said between gasps
Humphrey: "I warned you to take it easy, you're already exhausted" I said seriously
Luz: "I didn't expect this, I had already forgotten what it's like to feel exhausted" I said tiredly
Humphrey: "And you're in Kate's body, which has exceptional resistance," I said
Luz: "How can you live like this?" I asked
Humphrey: I just shrugged and I said "It's natural for us"
At that moment Toocs entered the room
Toocs: "I already have a room ready for you so you can rest tonight" I informed
Humphrey: "Thank you," I said
Toocs: "I didn't know whether to prepare one room for you or two different ones, so I have an additional one in case everyone wants their own," I said
Humphrey: At that moment I went blank, so I just limited myself to seeing Luz
Luz: "It doesn't matter to me, I've been in the same place while you sleep, so it's not a change for me" I said indifferently
Humphrey: "I know, but this situation is different," I said
Luz: "Why do you say that?" I asked confused
Humphrey: "Well, because it's different," I said quickly and somewhat annoyed
Light: "Why?" I said even without understanding
Humphrey: "Let's just leave it alone, it's different and that's it," I said, annoyed
Luz: "I don't understand you, besides what will you do when we return to the territory, it would be very suspicious if they start sleeping separately, not to mention that they would worry their puppies" I said
Humphrey: At that moment I was speechless, because I knew he was right, after a few minutes I said seriously, "Fine, but we will never talk about this"
Luz: "I don't see the need for us to ever have to bring up this topic again," I said calmly
Humphrey: "He really lacks a lot of common sense," I thought as I sighed
Toocs: "Then follow me," I said before leaving the cave
Humphrey: We both nodded and followed him to another room that had something very soft in the center
Toocs: "You can rest here; I prepared a mattress for you so you will be more comfortable" I said
Humphrey: "Yes, it is comfortable," I said surprised as I lay down
Toocs: "That's what it's designed for, it's better that you rest tomorrow we'll be back first thing in the morning" I said
Humphrey: "Okay, thank you," I said, nodding
Toocs: "If you need me, I will be taking care of my brother" I said before I leaving the room
Humphrey: "I understand," I said, nodding
Luz: "Let's go rest, it's been a long time since I felt tired," I said while I yawned and settled down to sleep, "Are you coming? I've already settled down like Kate always does," I said
Humphrey: I sighed and thought, "Kate please come back soon," then I settled down and tried to sleep
Meanwhile inside Kate's mind
Luz: I infiltrated Kate's mind to see how it was going, when I got to the area where the fight was developing, I made an effort to enter and see how it was going, when I saw that Kate was subject to that part of her that represented magic. that corrupted her, "Very good Kate" I encouraged her
Kate: I was surprised to hear the Light and I asked her in anguish, "What should I do with her? Every time I think I defeated her; she gets back up and her wounds disappear"
Luz: "Calm down, she was born from your doubts and insecurities, you must overcome those feelings and end them at their roots if you want them to disappear once and for all," I explained
Kate: "How am I supposed to do that while fighting this thing?" she asked as she struggled to subdue her
Luz: "First of all we must find the causes of your insecurities" I said
Kate: "This is not the time to talk about that," I said seriously
Luz: "We must, if you want to defeat that thing once and for all and return to your family," I said seriously
Kate: I sighed and said, "Well, I feel insecure about my strength, I know I'm no longer of help to Humphrey," at that moment I noticed that that copy was weakening and its struggle was decreasing
Luz: "I understand that you feel this way, he has become too strong, but he has never needed you as much as now, you are his support and without you he will not be able to resist what is coming" I said
Kate: "Will that be enough?" I asked worried
At that moment Kate's copy grew stronger and hit her to free herself from her grip
Luz: "That doesn't matter in the end, the important thing is to always do the best you can and be willing to face what is coming," I said, "Are you willing to face any adversity that comes along with Humphrey?" I asked seriously
Kate: "Of course I do, regardless of the fact that I will be with him and we will overcome any adversity that comes" I said decisively
Luz: "Then prove it, finish overcoming your insecurities and return to him" I said seriously
Kate: "I'll do it, thanks for the help" I said gratefully
Luz: "I would like to be more helpful, but something doesn't let me intervene much. Even that is forcing me out of here," I said as I struggled to stay in this space of her mind
Kate: "As you said, do everything you can and thanks to you I know what I must do to defeat this thing once and for all" I said more cheerfully
Luz: at that moment I saw how the copy wobbled a little, so I smiled and I said, "I know you'll make it, don't take too long, because everyone misses you"
Kate: "I'll try," I said, nodding
Luz: at that moment he was expelled from that piece of his mind, "This time I was able to stay there longer, it is possible that Kate has weakened that magic or it could be her subconscious trying to help her" I thought
The next day Humphrey was the first to wake up
Humphrey: When I woke up, I looked next to me and saw Kate sleeping, but I immediately remembered what I had been through so I sighed sadly, "Please come back soon, I miss you so much" I whispered, after that I got up and stretched
Shortly after Luz woke up
Luz: "It's been a long time since I felt this laziness of being just woken up," I said while I yawned and stretched
Humphrey: "How's Kate doing?" I asked worried
Luz: "The last thing I could see was that he was still fighting, but he had a clear advantage in the fight and it seems that he already found the key to winning once and for all," I explained
Humphrey; "I understand, I know he will make it, but I would like him to come back soon" I said, nodding
Luz: "She will do it as soon as she can" I said
Humphrey: "Well, let's go to Toocs so he can return us to the pack," I said
Luz: "It seems good to me," I said, nodding, but at that moment I felt a strange sensation in my stomach and it began to make a sound
Humphrey: "It looks like you're hungry," I said while holding back the urge to laugh at his reaction
Luz: "I forgot that mortal bodies need food, I think Kate hasn't eaten anything since yesterday afternoon and with all the exercise she did yesterday I'm very hungry" I said while putting a paw on my belly
Humphrey: "Surely Toocs must have something to eat" I said as I gestured for him to follow me
Luz: I nodded and we both started walking to the room where Scoot was recovering, when we entered, we saw how Toocs was on one side while watching his brother, "Good morning" we both greeted him
Toocs: "Hello you two, is it morning yet?" I asked them somewhat confused
Humphrey: "That's right, were you up all night?" I asked
Toocs: I yawned and I said tiredly, "That's right, but we gods don't need to rest as much as the mortals"
Humphrey: "Although that is probably true, you look terrible, you should rest more, you are pushing yourself too hard" I said seriously, but at the same time with concern
Toocs: "I can't neglect my brother," I said
Luz: "It won't help if you're looking at him every minute, you'll only be wearing yourself out and when he really needs you, you won't be in a position to help him," I said seriously
Toocs: I sighed and I said, "Maybe they are right, but if something happens to my brother because of my carelessness, I will never forgive myself"
Luz: "You're talking to another wolf I know," I said while looking at Humphrey
Humphrey: "How long are you going to do that?" I asked, somewhat annoyed
Luz: "Enough for you to learn your lesson" I said seriously
Toocs: I sighed and I said, "If you're right, it's not the best way to act"
Luz: "It's good that you understand," I said
Toocs: "That comparison was what made me aware of the scale of my problem," I said
Luz: "It's good that you can learn from the mistakes of others," I said, smiling
Humphrey: "I'm still here," I said, a little annoyed
"We know," they both said at the same time
Humphrey: "They'll never stop with that," I said to myself as I sighed
Toocs: "Well, I'll return you to Jasper's great pack, I already have enough energy for that" I said
Luz: "Before that, won't you have something to eat? I'm starving" I said
Toocs: "Sure, there must be food in the main dining room, let's go this way," I said before walking out
Humphrey: We both followed him to another room that had a large rock in the middle and suddenly a lot of food appeared on top of it, "Wow" I said surprised
Toocs: "Eat all you want, then look for me to bring you back," I said
Humphrey: "Aren't you going to eat with us?" I asked
Toocs: "I wouldn't want to bother you," I said
Humphrey: "Not at all, come and eat with us" I said smiling
Toocs: "Thank you" I said smiling and we all settled down to eat, after several minutes we were already satisfied
Luz: "It was delicious," I said, satisfied
Humphrey: "Yes, it was very good, thank you," I said gratefully
Toocs: "It's nothing, I'm glad you liked it" I said smiling
Humphrey: "Now if we go back, the others must be wondering where we are," I said
Luz: "Okay," I said, nodding
Toocs: "Okay, let's go," I said and took the three of us to the territory of Jasper's great pack
Toocs: "Take care of yourselves, I have to go back to take care of my brother" I said goodbye before returning
Luz: "He was in a hurry," I said
Humphrey: "He's worried about his brother, it's natural," I said
Luz: "What do we do now?" I asked
Humphrey: "First we go to Lilly and Garth to tell them about the situation, then we will go get my puppies, surely they must be worried" I said
Luz: "Will you tell them everything?" I asked
Humphrey: "I don't know that yet," I said as I started walking
Luz: I nodded and started to follow him
Meanwhile, someone not far from where he was had observed everything and said to himself, "I must report it"
Will Kate be able to defeat that magic and return to the others? Will Humphrey tell everything that happened to Garth and Lilly? Who is the spy? What will happen to the great Jasper pack? Will Scoot recover? Keep reading to find out, don't forget to write reviews of what you think of the story so far
