had his own special star right beside him and that she’d be able to one day see the stars were he would guide her way in the dark. Putting his head down beside hers he slowly closed his eyes as he feel asleep into a dreamless dream.

Before long it was morning and he knew this because everyone morning the food dispenser in the roof would open and drop down food for all the wolves below waking them up as they made a dash for the food. Waking up Aryan looked over to see that Astra had licked his muzzle to wake him up and for a moment they looked at each other before he heard Caelum call out his name.

‘We can’t do this unless we have support from everyone.’ Caelum said sounding worried as he looked at Aryan who watched all the wolves eating as much as they could of the food that had been dropped down to them.

‘We’ll have to see then won’t we?’ Aryan said looking at Caelum who nodded just as two Vereor guards appeared and started to walk towards the door. Instantly the wolves dropped the food that was in there mouths and ran to the back of the cage, Aryan and the others did exactly the same so if the Vereor wanted them they would have to come in a get them.

‘Parvus wants Aryan now.’ One of the Vereor said as it opened the door and stood there looking at Aryan who cowered with the others and didn’t move. Growling The Vereor walked in whilst the other stood at the door. ‘Come with me or I will kill someone.’ The Vereor said calmly as Aryan took a deep breath and walked forward but before he was halfway to the door he stopped and sat down.

‘No I won’t leave.’ He said sternly but he could still feel his whole body shaking, was everyone behind him or was he just fooling himself and making a huge mistake? The Vereor tried to push he forward he sat sternly shaking his head, ‘NO!’ he yelled as the other Vereor at the door growled and walked in to the cage towards Astra who stepped forward protecting those behind her.

‘I will kill this one if you don’t move.’ The Vereor said opening its huge jaws near Astra who stood quite still with a stern face and just looked at Aryan.

‘I won’t come quietly though...’ Aryan said in a loud voice as he looked behind him and for a moment nothing happened as his heart beat stopped hoping that the wolves would see sense. Stepping forward Caelum started howling as loud as he could as the Vereor near Astra hissed and ran over knocking Caelum to the ground as everyone gasped. Getting back up from the ground he continued, ‘Silence.’ The Vereor roared walking towards him as Keana and Sagci also started to howl as all the wolves around them looked at each other. In almost a split second all the wolves in the cage started to howl together as loud as they could and as it echoed around the solid walls it was so loud that even Aryan felt like his ears were going to burst. ‘SILENCE.’ The Vereor wolves yelled putting their heads down trying to get away from the noise. Seeing his chance Aryan spun around grabbing the Vereor wolf and with a sudden burst of hatred and with the Vereor blood inside him he grabbed the Vereor’s back and latched down throwing it across the room were it collapsed in to a heap. Turning to the other one a few male wolves leapt on it biting and snarling as the howling slowly stopped as everyone looked in disbelief at each at the two Vereor guard that laid before them, one of them dead and the other knocked out.

‘I don’t believe it…’ One of the wolves said in disbelief as he looked up at Aryan with a smile, ‘You must have the power of five wolves!” He said yelling happily as Aryan gave a worried look to Astra and just shook it off.

‘Come on we need to get outside!’ Aryan barked loudly as he walked out of the cage and into the hallway where all the other wolves stopped for a moment breathing in the fresh and looking at each other. ‘What do we do now Sagci?’ Aryan said turning to him as he watched the elder step back and put his head down.

‘What ever you say Alpha.’ He said looking up at him with his eyes as Aryan stood back in shock as all the wolves looked up at him and bowed their head down including Astra who smiled up at him. Aryan couldn’t believe it, he was not leader material he didn’t know what to do, where to go, he wasn’t a leader he just helped them it was all Sagci and the others that gave him hope where he was simply go to run and hide like a coward. He couldn’t be responsible for so many wolves but they all seemed to look up to him and what else could he do, turn them down and be a coward? Or at least try and help them and help himself out of this place.

‘What to we do now?’ Caelum said looking at Aryan who thought for a moment.

‘There are wolves around here I can hear them…’ Aryan said using his acute hearing from the Vereor blood as he looked down the hallway to see other doors with the Vereor machines on the doors.

‘How do we get in with those eye machine things?’ A wolf asked looking at the one on the door that they had just gotten out of.

Turning to look at it Aryan quickly spun around and kicked it with both his back legs breaking the top metal piece of revealing wires sticking out that were glowing. Quickly jumping forward Aryan ripped them out with his teeth as he turned to the others. ‘Quickly get them the Vereor will be here soon and we need to get outside!’ Aryan said as the wolves ran down the hallway doing as he showed them.

Suddenly Aryan heard a growl as he looked down to see a group of Vereor looking down at them with shocked faces as they growled and charged towards them. ‘Get ready.’ Aryan said in a low voice as he turned to face them head on.

Part 7
The strongest wolves behind Aryan all stood their ground as those behind started to howl loudly as more wolves were released from nearby cages and sprung out wanting to get out of their cages as soon as they could and into the fight for freedom.

The Vereor wolves leapt at Aryan and those at front as Aryan felt himself being flung to the ground as the Vereor snapped it’s teeth in Aryans face as he tried to hold it back with his front paws. Using his back legs he started to scratch the side of the Vereor wolf who was starting to look dizzy from the constant loud echo of howling all around them, Sagci had been right their acute hearing now only made it ten times worse for them. The Vereor was still to strong and as Aryan tried to push it off he felt it’s large paw come down and smack the side of the his face as he yelled painfully just as another male wolf leapt of the back of the Vereor causing it to rear up and off of Aryan as more wolves started to attack it.

Shaking his head Aryan stood up and looked to the side of his face and looked at the deep gash but ignored the pain and blood as he looked up to see all the wolves working together to defeat the Vereor that were around them. The smaller wolves stood in the center howling loudly as the stronger wolves stopped the Vereor by vicious attacks from getting closer to the ones in the middle and because of their loud hearing it was easy to disorient the Vereor who were being overpowered by the sheer wolf power of the wolves that had been let out of their cages.

It wasn’t long before the five or so Vereor were overpowered by the wolves who cheered loudly as they turned to Aryan who couldn’t help but also notice the few wolves who had been killed in the struggle. Feeling sick he looked away from them as Sagci walked up beside Aryan as he looked down at him. ‘I’m sorry I...I...’ Aryan said looking at him as Sagci shook his head.

‘No they gave their lives for freedom, we must continue Alpha if we want any chance.’ Sagci said seriously as Aryan looked up to see the others looking at him all with hopeful looks knowing that they had gotten so far and now they had to finish the job.

‘We must get outside any one know where we can get out?’ Aryan asked looking at the group of about thirty of more wolves who all looked at each other most of them had never been out of the cages. Closing his eyes Aryan held his head up high and smelt the air trying to smell the fresh air, he thought about his hatred which seemed to trigger the onset of the Vereor blood to his senses and as it seemed to bubble up inside of him it made his smell senses to be advanced like a Vereor wolf for a split second but that was all he needed. ‘This way!’ He yelled as he started to run down the hallway followed by the other wolves who were a buzz with a excitement and fear at the same time.

As they ran Aryan felt like they were being watched because he thought
