‘ Well, he’s a dark grey coloured wolf, with his underbelly being a colour of light grey and a tail being coloured with that of white and grey combined with four black paws.  His snout is like a wolf’s and his eyes are blue emerald, and when you look at his eyes, they seem like gems glowing in darkness.’ Soul explained as a picture of Rex came to her mind.

‘ Let’s go then. We don’t need anyone else with us, nothing attacks me.’ Fireheart said as she walked forward. Soul followed her deeper into the forest.

After an hour, Soul and Fireheart rested by some river rapids. Soul sat down and rested her tired head. Fireheart looked around and saw nothing.

‘ It’s getting late, we should rest for a while and then we can travel at night when it’s less dangerous.’ Fireheart said as she sat down, but didn’t lay her head.

‘ Boy, I’m thirsty. I should go upstream for a drink.’ Soul thought as she stood up and started walking.

‘ Careful Soul! The rapids are dangerous at this time.’ Fireheart said as she laid her head and closed her eyes.

Soul ignored the warning and walked upstream. Before she got to a safe spot, she felt herself slipping, but she got back up. Suddenly her entire body slipped into the deep rapids and she screamed. Fireheart heard her and ran to her. Soul was hanging onto a rock, but was slipping quickly, Fireheart grabbed her neck, but she wasn’t strong enough. Soul went down the rapids, which lead to a 100 ft waterfall! She managed to keep her head above the water, but she kept going underneath. Fireheart chased her, but couldn’t reach her. Then a black figure jumped out of the bushes and ran down the river, it then jumped in the river and swam to Soul. Fireheart then saw that it had blue emerald eyes!

‘ Rex! There’s a waterfall!’ Fireheart shouted.

 Rex then got Soul onto his back and started clawing the river bottom, but the current was too strong for him and he was swept down stream. Behind the bushes, Storm and the Rebellions ran down the river. Rex then felt gravity increase and found himself over the waterfall and like before, when he fell off the cliff, he howled with sorrow and sadness.

‘ Rex!’ Storm shouted.

‘ Soul!’ Fireheart shouted.

All the wolves went down to the small lake below and saw Soul and Rex unconscious on the bank, side by side. Storm and Fireheart went over to them with the Rebellions close behind. Storm held Rex’s head and slapped it. Nothing. He splashed it with water and he saw Rex’s eyes moves. Storm gasped with happiness and watched Rex stand up and cough the water from his lungs. Fireheart did the same to Soul, but it didn’t work. Rex nuzzled her, but that didn’t work either.

‘ Soul, my Soul. My destiny. My life. My love. My everything.’ Rex said as tears went down his face. Fireheart, Storm and the Rebellion wolves started tearing up too.

 ‘ Mother?’ Soul asked.

‘ Your friends are sad. You must return to them.’ Isabella said.

‘ But I won’t see you again and I don’t want to be left alone.’ Soul said.

‘ You won’t be alone. You have friends and I’ll be next to you the whole way. No matter how far away I seem from you, I’m always beside you.’ She said as she faded away.

‘ Mother! Don’t leave me!’ Soul shouted.

 ‘ I’m here, I’m here, I’m here, forever…’ Isabella said as she disappeared.

Soul then coughed and Rex smiled. She lifted her head and opened her eyes. Fireheart and the others gasped and rushed over. Soul then slowly stood up and coughed some more.

‘ Hi…’ Soul said.

‘ Soul, my Soul.’ Rex said as he nuzzled Soul and she nuzzled back. Diamond Sky looked at Rex and saw harness marks on his chest.

‘ Um…Rex? Do you know a husky called Cloud?’ She asked as she walked up to him.

‘ Yes, I do. He’s my team leader back at my hometown. Why?’ He asked.

‘ Well, I’m…his daughter and I want to see him again. I thought he was dead, but he isn’t.’ Diamond Sky said.

‘ You wanna come with us?’ Soul asked.

‘ Rex? Blue Sun and I have made a decision. We have decided to form a pack and live in No wolf land and she says that you can come and visit anytime you like.’ Storm announced.

‘ Good luck, Storm and Blue Sun.’ Rex said as a goodbye. He then turned around with Diamond and Soul beside him. Storm and Blue Sun turned the other way and headed for No wolf land.

  In Nome, Fly, Fang and Cloud sat at the town border. Fly then heard a noise.

‘ Rex?’ She thought as she stood up and then howled. Fly heard a reply and knew it was him.

‘ What’s that?’ Fang asked as he stood up.

‘ It’s Soul and Rex, they’ve come home. At last.’ Fly answered when Cloud saw something disturbing.

‘ Oh, great. Dustin’s come back too.’ Cloud said as he ran to the finish line.

Rex, Soul and Diamond ran toward the town. Fly and Fang ran too as they passed them at great speed. When they got to the finish line, they stopped and Diamond saw her father.

‘ Go on.’ Soul’s eyes said to Diamond. She then walked over to Cloud.

‘ Dad?’ She asked.

‘ Huh? Look, kid. I’ve got no- Diamond!’ Cloud said as
