"Shut up you piece of chicken liver!" Savanna cried out. "Enough!" Cash shouted. Glacier, Brock, and Savanna stood as silent as stones.

"I, Cash leader of the Stone Howl Pack banish you from the pack. You are no longer welcomed." Members picked up their barks as they started moving toward the three slowly. "Come on let's go." Brock said sadly as he and Savannah walked out of the shed into the early evening.

"Oh Cash!" Glacier yelled. "This will not be forgotten and the Stone Howl Pack will crumble under your command!" The hybrid raised his noble head and howled a deep song. The dogs of the clan stopped their barking and panic voices whispered through the clan. Cash drew back a lip as Glacier exited the building.

"Hey Bernie you don't mind if two more canines lived here?" Glacier called out as they entered the boiler room. Bernie looked up and sighed.

"Fine. And what happened to you lad?" Bernie rushed up to Brock. "We'll tell you later." Savanna answered as the two moved closer to the heat of the boiler and laid down. Bernie turned to face Glacier.

"Do I want to know?" Glacier didn't look at him but Bernie could tell a hard expression was on Glacier's face. "Oh White Mountain's going to be turned upside down." Bernie mumbled.
