Naryia.
“Uhh yea… five of them actually,” He replied. Baako and Naryia ran up to Durango wanting more information about these ‘beasts’ but Litzy and Eli continued their small talk with irrelevant questions. When they caught up to Durango, all their questions started falling out.
“When?”
“Where?”
“What were they like?”
“Did they say anything?”
“What are they?”
But Durango wouldn’t answer a single one, he continued to stare before him, his eyes wide and his legs unable to move. Naryia and Baako were confused and they followed Durango’s gaze. Standing before them were five similar creatures holding the same strange, long sticks and those angry pink faces. The same crackling, low screech sound came from one of the sticks, a small rock blew out of it at high speed and hit the ground with incredible force right in front of Durango.
“Please tell me I’m hallucinating too,” He said.
“RUN!” Baako cried, the three wolves turned back to the shelter, Durango kept running but Naryia and Baako explained things as fast (And not as informational) as they could to Litzy and Eli.
“The angry beasts!”
“The loud sticks!”
“Five!”
“Let’s go!” Litzy and Eli looked at them both like they were crazy. Another speedy rock flew down on them echoing the snarl of the stick. It hit one of the branches of the shelter, but before it collapsed they ran in the same direction Durango had fled. They found Durango no too far ahead, he was whimpering loudly in pain but the others couldn’t see anything wrong with him.
Until they got closer.
“Get it off me!” He cried, they found a grey mouth at his foot, its teeth were digging into him the more he struggled. Baako tried helping by opening the mouth, but the movement of Durango’s foot made it harder.
“Stop moving!” Baako yelled, but Durango didn’t stop, he just wanted it off him already. The teeth started to remove Durango’s skin and fur, leaving it all fleshy and more painful. Naryia went to the other side of the lip-less mouth, helping Baako open it.
“Guys, we have a few tails” Said Litzy, looking behind them and seeing that those creatures were moving quite fast on those hind legs. Baako and Naryia where straining to get this mouth open.
“GUYS!” Litzy yelled for them. Finally they got Durango’s leg free and they all fled away again, but Durango was slower than before. The teeth nearly dug into his bone from struggling so much to get free. Blood was flowing out of it a fast pace. This (obviously) caused Durango to limp which wasn’t a good thing considering those huge two-legged, loud-stick-holders were right behind them. Those loud sticks continued to go off, getting louder the closer they came.
A broken branch from a fallen tree thrashed along Durango back ankle, swiping deep into the cut. Making him yelp in pain and stumble to the ground. Litzy turned back at her brothers plead for help, she saw the beasts getting closer even faster. She had no idea how to save him but her mind worked in a different way to others.
“When the creatures are steered away, take my brother and get out here!” Litzy yelled to the others. Before they could object, Litzy ran towards the beasts.
“Is she crazy?” Asked Baako at the same time Naryia called “You’re crazy!” But it didn’t matter. Litzy had made up her mind. Hoping this plan would work – Crazy of not.
Litzy made her way to first pink creature, she grabbed on to it’s legs trying to pull him backwards, she succeeded and dragged it along the ground, running into two other creatures and taking them down too. She let go and ran in the opposite direction of the others. Naryia and Baako ran to Durango, helping him up and trying to run (Mostly skipping) as fast as they could away from the creatures. Eli just watched as all the beasts turned to follow Litzy, continuing to shoot those small rocks from the long sticks.

Chapter Ten: COLD HEARTED------------Sunset

Everyone stopped running when they thought they were safe enough. They had stopped hearing those blasts a while ago. Litzy hadn’t returned yet and the others were worried for her. Durango was lying down in some hard, dry grass which felt uncomfortable underneath him. They were sweaty and hot after that long day and there was no water source around to help them cool off. Luckily the sky grew grey with clouds lingering over, which meant one thing: rain.
Fortunately it wasn’t heavy, just a light shower which helped the grass become soft and more tolerable.
“Do you think she’s okay?” Asked Naryia to the guys.
“I think she’ll be fine,” Answered Baako. “What do you think Durango?” Everyone turned to Durango for his answer. They thought he must have felt so much worse then they did, since she was his sister.
“I think…I think she’s dead” Durango replied, he said it with so much poise that others thought he felt nothing, not even the smallest prick of sadness in him.
“Are you serious?” Snapped Naryia, she stood up and cowered over Durango, she wasn’t confident enough to fully stand up to him, but for Durango to be so heartless it discussed her.
“She’s your sister! Your own blood and you don’t care she just risked her life for you? AGAIN!” Naryia screamed. “I have never met someone so heartless!” That wasn’t true although he was one of the few wolves at the top of her ‘heartless’ list, along with her mother and most of her pack.
“It’s her own fault for attacking them!” He roared.
“In that case it’s your fault for getting trapped in that mouth! It’s your fault for moving so much and getting bitten even more! It’s your fault for falling over, making her need to save you!” Naryia roared back. Durango stood up, the harsh light of the sun and grey clouds tears made Durango look even more evil than ever. Naryia tried to stand her ground, she knew she was right. But her disgust wasn’t enough to keep her high and secure. She soon trembled back to the ground beneath him.
Durango’s voice was soft but it was filled with threat and darkness. “Do not speak to me like that again,” He said. Naryia felt like mimicking his voice and saying ‘You know I’m right’ But she knew that would get her into more trouble.
Especially in this situation.
Durango slowly walked away from her and the others, walking out on his own, through the soft rain. He walked through the thick trees and came across a clearance, like a pathway through the trees, he followed and soon a familiar scent lifted in the air.
“Litzy!” He cried with high hopes. He ran along the path with happiness flowing through him. Some tears fell from his eyes but he shoved the back with great force. He stopped in his tracks when he saw what lied ahead.
The pink beasts.
The beasts were accompanied by large metal carriers, one of them snarled itself awake, it was a kind of choking sound. One of the beasts sat inside as the others carried things and loaded them up onto the metal carriers. Durango stayed hidden in the tree, hoping not to be seen. He searched around for Litzy, he was sure she was here. He sniffed the air to double check. Now he was dead certain. He searched and searched, looking from one carrier to another, his head turned at any movement before him.
Until he found her.
Durango stood his ground, he wanted to save her from these strange creatures. But he couldn’t make himself move and there was no point in running for her now. She was in the hands of one of the beasts. She wasn’t struggling to get away either. Durango called for her, hoping she would hear him and make an escape. The pink beast threw her in one of the carriers, she was free. She could move now but… she didn’t. Why didn’t she move? Durango crept up closer, but still far away enough that no one could see him – in this light anyone could hardly see anything. But Durango’s focus was more on Litzy, he looked up to her and called out again.
“Litzy! Let’s go! I’m coming to help yo-” Durango stopped, his eyes grew wide as his saw the reason she hadn’t been moving. In Litzy’s side, a small hole was created by one of those rocks the stick-holders shot out. Blood dripped down her side; her eyes were as wide as his, her face and body were frozen. Durango turned and ran back into the deep, thick forest. He’d been right, although he hadn’t wished he was. Litzy was dead. Durango’s kid sister, the one every wolf thought was the most dedicated wolf around, was now lifeless in the back of a human truck, killed by a pitilessly weapon.
Durango couldn’t hide anything inside any longer. He stopped and fell to the ground. Tears falling from his eyes as the rain slowly stopped. Durango rolled in the mud in frustration, then he got up and ran straight for a tree. He kicked it, he hit it, he ran into it, he yelled at it.
“LITZY! YOU’RE SO STUPID! Why did you do this to me? Now I’m alone…”  He said.

Chapter Eleven: OR WAS HE? ------------Saturday.

In the morning Baako was woken by a very worried voice.
“Baako, Baako? Durango hasn’t come back yet, do you think he’s gone looking for Litzy?” Baako opened his eyes, staring at the soft face who had the sweet voice. Naryia.
“Do you think we should go looking for him? I feel so bad… I shouldn’t have gone off at him like that,” Naryia said.
“I’m
