little teary but held back the tears as she nodded. ‘I hope so Ty, I hope so…’

 

 

Conan ran back to the to the glacier where he stopped and tried to find the sled team but to no avail because the glacier was completely empty of all life. Hanging his head low Conan growled to him as he paced slightly, he didn’t know what to do or where to go.

 

Suddenly he heard a strange call of barks and instantly recognized them as a husky call. Smiling he quickly ran towards the sound which was some where in the forest near where he was. Without thinking he ran into a small clearing where he saw two sled dog teams but they weren’t the ones he had seen before. The huskies all jumped back in surprised looking at Conan who slowly approached them.

 

‘What’s going on?’ He said growling at the huskies.

 

‘Better run wolf because we’re here to stop you.’ One of the huskies said looking at Conan who looked confused as he heard gunshots in the distance. Conan’s mouth dropped open as he looked back into the forest his family was in danger and it was all because of him.

 

 

Chapter 10 Man Or Wolf

 

Conan’s heart was pounding hard against his chest as he ran so fast that he was just missing the huge trees that stood in his way. The thick layer of snow didn’t stop him as he seemed to just fly over the snow his large paws only touching the snow for a moment before leaving so he didn’t sink.

 

The sound of the gun shots echoed in his mind as he ran towards his den and towards his pack and family. His mother was right he had lead the men to his home to capture is family and take them away from the wild.

 

He felt so foolish trusting the man that was Koara’s master was and now wished that he could take it back. His dreams an d passions were important to him but nothing was more important then his family and his pack and he’d only started to realize that now.

 

As he broke threw some of the undergrowth he landed on a small rock where he stood looking out at the clearing where he could see his pack all talking amongst each other each looked extremely worried, among them stood Aleu who everyone was talking to.

 

‘We have to run!’ Conan yelled out as they all turned to look at him including Aleu and Ty. ‘The men are coming we have to get out here.’ Conan pleaded looking at the wolves who didn’t seem to understand what he was saying.

 

‘Why should we believe you? You lead them here.’ One of the wolves said as he stepped out from the others and looked at Conan with a frown etched on his face. Conan knew the wolf quite well, his name Night and always been a rival of Conan’s.

 

They were around the same age and if Conan didn’t accept the position of Alpha he was next in line and he knew it. ‘There’s no time to squabble amongst our selves they’ll be here soon.’

 

Conan said looking at Night who seemed to be enjoying himself as he turned around. ‘This fool…’ He didn’t finish because Aleu growled loudly and jumped in front of Night causing him to step back.

 

’This fool us the future Alpha now respect ranks Night.’ Before anyone could say anything else Conan saw something bright shining in his eyes. Squinting he looked to try and see where the light was coming from and he could faintly see a man holding something shiny in his hand pointing it at the pack.

 

’No…’ Conan thought as he leaped from the rock and ran towards the shadow who didn’t seem to realize he was coming. Once Conan was close he leapt up at the long black weapon and latched on to it with his teeth dragging it down as he fell. The man tried to shake Conan off but he held on tightly not letting go just as the gun went off.

 

 

 

Koara and the other huskies who were resting nearby heard the gunshot and instantly Koara jumped up and looked at the other huskies who all had the same expressions on their faces.

 

‘I must warn my master.’ She said as she started to run over to the mans tent when Alden stepped in front of her blocking her way.

 

‘Move Alden.’ Koara said looking at Alden who didn’t seem intent on moving.

 

‘You need to forget about the wolves Koara…’ He hissed in her face causing her to step back disgusted.

 

‘Step back before I made you Alden’ Koara growled looking at Alden barring her teeth, suddenly the other huskies all circled around Alden as well making him look surprised.

 

‘I agree with Koara a wolf saved our lives now we must to the same. Go Koara.’

 

One of the huskies said looking at Alden and smirking as Koara quickly ran up to the tent and started barking madly until the man came out.

 

‘Koara what’s…’ They all heard a gunshot and instantly the man looked at the huskies before looking at the sled.

 

‘Come on.’ The man yelled as all the dogs ran over to the sled and quick got themselves ready as they started running off towards the forest leaving Alden all alone beside the tent.

 

‘I’m coming Conan.’ Koara said in her mind as he ran at the front where Alden normally was.

 

 

Chapter 11 Heart Of A Wolf Dog

 

Conan still held tightly onto the gun despite the fact the gun had gone off hitting nearby trees and making his pack bark in fright as they all stood together with no where to run.

 

Finally the man let the gun go making Conan and the gun fall on to the snow. Instantly dropping the gun for his mouth Conan reared up at the person who managed to jump aside before Conan could reach him.

 

Running back to his pack he could see Aleu and Ty standing in front of them looking at Conan who was out of breath. ‘Get the pack out of here before they come back.’

 

Conan said looking at Aleu who just seemed to stand there looking at her son. Ty quickly did as Conan had said and turned to the pack mates and told them to run for the closet dens and to stay there until they were called.

 

Watching at the corner of his eye Conan watched them all leave except for Ty and Aleu who were looking at their son.

 

‘Quick Conan we have to leave.’ Aleu said nudging him slightly to make him move from where he was standing but Conan didn’t move as he looked at them shaking his head.

 

‘You get out of here I’ll lead them away maybe they’ll leave.’ Conan said sounding unsure.

 

‘No don’t be stupid you need to come with us.’ Aleu pleaded looking at Conan who just smiled as his mother.

 

‘I started this now I need to finish it Aleu just like you had to long ago.’ Smiling up at her son Aleu and Ty looked proudly at each other but before they could say anything they heard a sound and turned around to see another hunter right in front them pointing the gun at Conan who turned around and growled at the man.

 

‘Stay behind me!’  Conan said watching the human carefully as the mans finger started to go down on the trigger. ‘Stop!’ Came the voice of another man as Conan turned to see Koara’s master bursting his way through the forest towards the other man who turned to look at him the gun going off in his hands. The bullet landed just in front of Conan who instantly saw his chance and leapt at the man with the gun grabbing on to his shoes and growling trying to knock him off his feet.

 

The man kicked Conan away from him as he turned to Koara’s master and laughed shaking his head. ‘Gone soft then?’

 

‘Leave these wolves alone. I’ve learnt something these past few days its that we must leave places like this, if we take all their land where do the wolves go?’

 

‘They’re killers!’ The man said pointing at Conan who was growling at the man ready to attack again. From the trees a group of six huskies suddenly ran up to there master all growling at the other man including Koara who looked at Conan feeling relieved he was still alive.

 

‘Leave’ Koara’s master said in a low tone looking at the man who still held the gun in his hand. For a moment there was a silence but the man quickly dropped his gun no the ground before running off in to the forest. Conan went to follow but was stopped when Koara quickly jumped in front of him.

 

‘Let him go.’ She said looking at Conan who was still fuming.
