warrior. I will get my family and we will go with you." Spirit left to get his family, and Sirinia and her group went over to Yama. Yama looked at her mother, "Mother.....please......go..........I will not..........last much.....................longer..........Complete the..........mission!" Sirinia cried and ran away from her daughter. She cried for a long time, with her group, until Spirit and his family came to them. Spirit bowed his head, "I am sorry. She died a warrior's death. This is my mate, Toph. And these are my pups, Tenza, Thor, Apprentice and Santie. We will help you with the war." The group ran on, and Sirinia cried the rest of the run. With one last look at Yama, they left.

"Come on Team", Hazayata shouted. Rhoscoe looked up, "We are trying our hardest. Please let us have a rest. Holly's paw won't get any better if we don't let it heal. If we keep moving the wound will just open up again." Hazayata looked at his daughter, "Your right, Rhoscoe. All right team, let's rest here." The team of five settles down, when Sonya spoke up, "Hazayata, you have not yet told us where we are going. All I know is that Jasmine split us up into groups. And who are we looking for?" Hazayata looked at Sonya, "We are going across the great water, where we are going to find one of the strongest packs there ever was." Radulf looked at Hazayata, confused, "Why are we going to find them. Father, you can't expect your group to trust you if you can't tell us even why we left. Are we even going back? "Hazayata stared at his son, "Of course we're going back!" Holly spoke up, "Father! Tell us why who this pack is and why we have to find them! "Hazayata sighed, "We are going to find the Iron Fang Pack. They are known for their bravery and strength. I cannot tell you why we have to find them, Jasmine told me not too. But we have only one hope. "Everyone yelled, "WHO?!" Hazayata smiled, "We must find Sabre and Ivy.'''

Cyrus's group ran on, with Silverclaw and Suki with them. Cyrus looked at them and said, "Silverclaw, Suki, we are gonig to take you back to our camp, so you can help our leaders and my mate with planning. Is that alright with you?" Silverclaw and Suki nodded and the group headed back to the Aurora Borealis Pack's camp. On the way, Ying told Silverclaw and Suki about their pack, the members, and of the enemies they were about to face. "When Jasmine was starting her pack, there was a wolf named Ethal who fell in love with Jasmine. He was going to be alpha male, because there was no one else going for alpha male. But at the last minute, another wolf named Jautri went for alpha male. In the end, Jasmine picked Jautri, and Ethal got very angry. Jasmine knew that Ethal loved her, but what Ethal didn't understand was that he would be so hurt. The night he left, he came and spoke with me. He told be that I could be beta male in his new pack if I killed Jasmine and Jautri while they were sleeping. I refused and ran away from him. I went and slept with my parents. Now, we have finally made our territory, and then Ethal's pack comes and crosses the border. When Ethal tried to kill Jasmine, Jautri jumped in front of her, and got badly injured. But luckily, the beta female, Crystal Dawn, and my brother, Radulf, went and found a mediciene wolf named Shojji. Shojji gave us herbs for Jautri and he is better now." Silverclaw and Suki were amazed. The group ran on, and Ying told them more stories.

Jasmine was walking through the camp with brambles in her mouth. She was building a barrier around the camp, so by the time the Sun Jewel wolves got in, they would be covered in thorns. Jasmine chuckled to herself and went back to work. Then, Jautri ran though the camp with Cyrus and his group behind him. Jasmine ran over to them, "Cyrus, are you dropping off comrades?" Cyrus smiled and Silverclaw stepped forward, "Hello Jasmine. I am Silverclaw. And this is my mate, Suki. We are here to help you with the war. Is there anythingwe can do?" Jasmine nodded and took Silverclaw and Suki with her. Cyrus' group ran off, leaving Silverclaw and Suki in the camp with Jasmine and Jautri. Jasmine turned to Silverclaw and Suki, "So, right now we are building a barrier around the camp. Will you help us? Our beta female is off hunting." Suki and Silverclaw nodded, and got to work with Jasmine and Jautri.

Ryan closed his eyes as he ran. He couldn't believe that Sirinia hadn't stayed with Yama in her last moment. She had just run away, leaving Yama to make the journey to heaven alone. Ryan started crying a bit, he just couldn't believe that a member of their team was gone. If made his heart turn dark with grief, he didn't know how Sirinia would tell Hazayata and Yama's siblings. Ryan continued on and they soon reached a border. It was scent marked but Ryan didn't care. Sirinia was too upset to howl, to Ryan did it for her. Soon, a male and female wolf came to the border. One was blue and cream and one was gray, brown and cream. The female walked up, "Hello. I am Blue and this is my mate, Dosco. What are you doing on our border?" Ryan stepped up, "We are here because we need your help. Our pack is going into war against an evil pack ,and we are badly outnumbered. We have come to ask for your help. Will you help us?" Blue turned to her mate, Dosco, and he nodded. Dosco went up to them, "Of course we will help you. Blue will just go and get the rest of our family." With that, Blue ran off into the forest. She returned with 4 other wolves. Blue spoke,"These are my pups, Amber, Bluemoon, Dallas, Devin and Mirianna. We will come with you to help you win the fight." Ryan bowed his head in respect and they ran off towards home. He saw Sirinia growl at herself anf ran to the front of the group. She snarled, "I may have lost my daughter, but her spirit will guide us back home. We have completed our mission, and we shall return home to win this war!!" She howled to the heavens loudly, and tears poured down her cheeks. Team 3 was going home!!

Hazayata and his group were starting to approuch the beach. He stared out across the great water. It was huge, how would they cross? They ran along the edge of the water until they came to a ledge, and where the ledge ended, the ice path started. Hazayata put a paw on it. It seemed sturdy enough, he thought. He took a deep breath and ran across the ice. The group followed him closely, and tried there best not to slip. He glimpsed Holly slipping once, but Rhoscoe quickyl rebalanced her. Her paw was looking sore, and he decided as soon as they got to land, they would rest. They ran on and one across the ice, when Hazayata saw it crack. He shouted, "Run as fast as you can! The ice is breaking!" The group ran very fast across. Theyall jumped off the ice onto the beach, except Holly. She was limping aross. Hazayata saw the ice breaking under her, but Holly pushes off all her paws and landed with a thud beside him. Her paw was swollen, and it looked painful. Hazayata quickly took charge, "Rhoscoe, you and Radulf carry her. Follow me and I will howl for help."They soon reached some trees, and Hazayata howled for help. A few minutes later, a group of wolves appeared. The two leaders were at the front. Hazayata knew they were not the Iron Fang wolves. They were different, but they somehow looked caring. The alpha male spoke first, "I am Granite, alpha male of this pack. This is my mate, Aleu." Hazayata was shocked. It was Aleu, Balto's daughter. Before Hazayata had joined the Aurora Borealis Pack, Balto had trained him to be a fast runner. He was amazed, "Aleu! Your father tranied me as a sled dog! I can't believe I'm actually meeting you! And Granite, you made the amazing journey across the ice path!" Aleu and Granite looked happy, they must have known that Hazayata and his group were friends, not foes. Aleu went over to Hazayata, "Wow! You knew my father! And you know Granite too! I can see that the black dog your other friends are carrying is hurt. Come with us and we will treat her." The group followed Aleu and Granite to their camp. The rested and Holly was treated with lots of herbs. Radulf looked at Granite, "Leaderwolf Granite, do you know of the Iron Fang Pack? Is there anything you can tell us about them?" Granite looked angry at first, but the coldness faded very slowly. Aleu, seeing that Granite was geting angry, walked over and spoke for him, "The Iron Fang wolves are pour enemies. We went into battle against them once and lost badly. We lost four wolves that night, and I knew the battle was a mistake. Now you cannot repeat what I say about the Iron Fang wolves to anyone except your pack. If you agree, I will tell you." Radulf nodded and Aleu began. "A long time ago, when I had just become mates with Granite, I went undercover as a spy into their camp. I dyed my fur with special berries, and went into their camp and pretended to be a wolf wanting to join their pack. I knew their alpha male and female, Sabre and Ivy, were suspicious of me. But they let me stay for a while. One night, I went to see their storyteller, Brakan, and he told be about the history of the Iron Fang wolves. The story goes like this:
