In the Heart of Alaska Valo, a large black wolf, stretched and climbed down from his rock, he is leader of the Twinn Peaks pack, named so because their territory surrounded two mountains, the smaller of the two situated on the side of the larger one, making it appear as if they were one mountain with two peaks. Valo yawned and checked all the members of his pack were there, Tenaka and Sarchie, two wolf/husky hybrids were playing tug with a stick, Moonlit, a blueish coloured female wolf, was talking with Alexi, a light grey female wolf, the sister of Jake, a dark grey male wolf, who was still curled up resting with his mate Snowy, a white and brown female wolf, Valo was satisfied with everything and he walked to the bottom of a hill and surveyed the slope, recently another female wolf had been following him and his pack, he did'nt know what she wanted but thought better of approaching her, Jake wandered up next to Valo,                                            "She still there?", he asked,                                                   "Yes, we'll go to the coast, from there we'll make our way to Ghost Canyon and on to the Shadow Lands", Valo informed him, Jake was clever and knew how to handle stressful situations, for now Valo had decided he would be Beta wolf, unless a more suitable wolf joined the pack. The journey to the coast was easy going, the hardest part being crossing a river at the foot of a waterfall, it would've been straight forward had Sarchie not fallen in, it took Jake, Tenaka, Moonlit and Snowy to pull him out, Valo left them to it, he decided that he should get himself out of the river seeing as it was his fault he fell in trying to impress Moonlit, Sarchie's plan had'nt gone the way he'd hoped, Moonlit was not impressed by his antics, especially as she'd gotten wet helping to pull him out. After the river it had been plain sailing all the way to the coast, when they arrived everyone rested in the long grass at the top of a cliff, Valo was watching another wolf at the foot of the cliff, it was dark brown and grey in colour and failing miserably at catching a fish, a much larger grey wolf with a black strip from the tip of his nose to the tip of his tail, when he arrived the brown wolf was submissive to him, the grey wolf had no problem catching a fish from the waves, the brown wolf did'nt look happy, Valo managed a slight snigger at the brown wolf...but he still did'nt smile, never mind laugh properly, Tenaka laughed though, he too had been watching the wolves at the foot of the cliff,                                              "Pathetic!", he laughed at the brown wolf, Valo gave him a look but did'nt say anything, Tenaka giggled again and trotted back to the rest of the pack, the grey wolf at the bottom of the cliff sniffed the air, he scented Valo and his pack, he looked up the cliff directly at Valo, Valo stared straight back, after about a minute the grey wolf turned and went back into the forest, beckoning the brown wolf to follow, Valo stood up and gestured for the pack to follow him, he led them down the cliff and he scented the two wolves, he thought he smelt something familiar with the grey wolf's scent but dismissed it, just at that moment the grey wolf burst out of the trees, Valo, thinking it was a demonai, turned bit into his neck, the grey wolf turned and bit into Valo's neck, the two stood locked together growling, the grey wolf let go,                             "I'm looking for a wolf named Valo", he told them, Valo released his grip and looked at the wolf,                                                 "My name is Sangar, I've been looking for my brother, Valo", he continued,                                                                   "You've found him, I did'nt know I had a brother?", Valo answered questioningly,                                                                "You're from our parents second litter, they did'nt manage the same level of secrecy with you as they did with me, my siblings are all dead now, killed by a hideous creature", Sangar informed Valo, "A demonai", Valo growled, Sangar nodded in agreement,         "This is Niju, he was travelling with an old wolf when I found him, the old one died, he's been with me ever since", Sangar introduced Niju, he walked up next to Sangar,                                       "You can join my pack, Sangar, you will be Beta wolf", Valo told them, Sangar nodded respectfully, Niju did'nt look as pleased. Later that day while the pack was resting Niju decided he would try and take over leadership of the pack, he stalked up behind Valo, he leapt at him, aiming for his neck, unfortunately for Niju, Valo knew he was there, he span around and pinned Niju to the ground, clamping his teeth into his throat, Niju yelped, the rest of the pack looked up in alarm, they stared at Valo and Niju, Valo released his grip and stood over Niju who was now lying on his back, he snarled at him, "You are Omega of this pack, you will behave yourself, if you disrespect my rules you will be killed, am I understood?", Valo bellowed in his face, Niju nodded in fear, Valo moved away from Niju and lay down, Niju slunk down the hill they were resting on, he felt rather embarrased, the whole pack slept there that night.

Meanwhile, a grey female wolf was following the scent of Valo's pack, she was the wolf that had been following them, her name was Venue, she had been following them in the hope of joining their pack, she had left her family a while ago, she had woken up and realised the pack had left, ever since she had been frantically following their scent, she did'nt want to lose her chance of joining a pack, without the protection of a pack she did'nt stand much of a chance, the only other pack nearby was hostile and she'd only just escaped from them with her life. She reached the coast by early morning, she was very tired by now and extremely hungry, she had'nt been very successful hunting without a pack either, all she'd had to eat in 3 days was a large rabbit, she walked down a hill and looked out over the surroundings, she was beginning to lose hope of finding the pack again, unbeknown to her, Valo had been keeping an eye out for her ever since they left for the coast, he had scented her a while ago and was watching her, he stalked down the slope and leapt infront of her growling, she jumped back and stumbled over, he eased off a bit seeing how weak she was, "Please, I want to join your pack", she whimpered, by now the rest of the pack had arrived, Valo looked at Sangar and he nodded at Valo,                                                                              "You may join us, you'll be Omega alongside Niju", Valo told her whilst growling at Niju,                                                     "Jake, get her some food", Valo told him, Jake trotted off to fetch some of their last kill, Valo looked back at the female, she looked up at him and smiled,                                                          "My name is Venue", she told him, he nodded in acknowledgement, Jake dropped the food at Valo's paws, Valo
