Dan grinned.

- Don’t bet on it. – he said.

The hybrid pushed Ohanzee up with his rear paws so quickly and strongly that the black wolf rolled away. Dan got up, trying to ignore the pain in his hurt neck. Suddenly, he saw a group of Ohanzee’s wolves approaching in his aid. Dan's heart almost jumped out of his chest when he saw one dragging an unconscious Luna. A thin line of blood was spilling from a wound on her head. The hybrid felt his anger growing again. The minion who was carrying Luna released her, letting her fall on the ground. Ohanzee rose and laughed.

- I told you, Half-breed. There’s no way you can win. – he said, just increasing Dan’s rage. – Hmm, I wonder how a dog tastes.

He prepared to bite her neck, when a dark red form struck him with its head, and another brown-gray and a large gray one tackled the other three minions. They were Balto, Kodi and Ralph. Dan smiled relieved. He ran towards them.

- You couldn’t have come in a better time. – he said, smiling.

- News spread quickly. Especially when Stella sees the whole thing. We had to help. – Kodi explained.

- Who else came? – Dan asked.

- Dusty and Kirby. - Ralph said.

- We need to take her away from here. – Dan reminded, indicating the hurt Luna.

Ralph carried her on his back. They were about to go to the caves, but suddenly they heard a large group running after them. Twelve wolves from Ohanzee's group that had escaped from the siege were rushing ready to kill their enemies.

- Run! – Dan warned the others.

All of them were great runners, and were quickly gaining distance from their pursuers, but Ralph fell behind because of Luna's weight, and the enemies were getting even closer to him. Balto, Kodi and Dan were already inside the cave, seeing Ralph fighting to reach them. When the large gray husky was in the entrance of the cave, Ohanzee’s wolves were some feet away from him. Dan jumped beside him to help, but he didn’t need to. The ground started to tremble. Ohanzee’s wolves stopped, confused. They looked up to the top of the cliff. A small avalanche was about to fall on them. They tried to run, but too late. Dan and Ralph rushed deeper inside the cave, avoiding being smashed. They heard the loud sound of falling snow, and they looked back at where their enemies were. They were invisible buried under loads of snow.

Chaska and the rest of the pack became visible getting closer to the cave, and more members appeared from the other side of the tunnel. They gathered there, rounding Dan and Luna. Chaska approached them, smiling.

- Our clan will never forget you, Daniel. - he said, bowing respectfully.

Dan felt happy. He had freed a pack from a tyrant, and brought peace again. Suddenly he remembered another issue.

- Now we have to choose another leader. I’ve got to for another mission of my own. – he said, disappointing the entire pack. - Now, I'll indicate a candidate: our beta, Chaska.

Chaska looked surprised. He never thought it would be him.

- He bravely acted like a leader himself, aiding me in command, and sharing his wisdom with his companions. – the alpha stated. The pack looked to agree with him. - Who agrees that Chaska is the best leader for you?

Everyone in the pack howled, showing their support, agreeing with Dan's opinion.

- Then it's unanimous. Chaska is your new alpha for now on. – Dan declared, as Chaska
