Bone walked in behind me, as soon as bone was settled Scar nodded “speak” he growled.

 

 

 

 

“As I’ve told you” I began “Blood is in town Bone gave a surprised growl but Scar silenced him with a flick of his tail. I ignored him and continued “he killed my family in cold Blood; He told my mum that he would rule both towns and that only his pack will live….”   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bone let out a snarl “he can try…”

Scar flicked his tail for silence “that’s enough Bone” snarled Scar” “you will not interrupt “Scar flicked his tail toward me “go on”.

 

 

 

“after he killed my family he came after me but I got away and It was then that I knew that I had to come to you, that you were the only one who could save the town”.

Scar drew his lips back in a vicious snarl “I don’t save the town “he snarled “I save only my pack”.

I glared at him “how dare you, you are supposed to be the leader of the town, the one that protects us but instead you are a spineless traitor “……Scar rose to his paws as Claw and Bone flinched, I guessed that not many dogs dared to speak to him that way

“You dare call me a traitor” he snarled “who is you family that they must be avenged?”.

“My family were nothing special to you I’m sure” I snarled “but to me Meisa was….”

“Meisa” Interrupted Claw “Meisa is you mother.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I stopped and looked curiously at claw “yes I growled Meisa is my mother.

 

 

 

 

“Meisa” snarled Scar "that filthy rat," for an instant anger flashed across Claws eyes but as Scar turned to her they changed to fear “why are you so interested in that filthy rat he snarled.

 

 

 

Claw dropped her eyes not meeting Scars, “I’m not” she growled uneasily I’m just glad she dead” but the was guilt in her eyes.

Scar snorted and spun back around to me “how dare you come here and expect me to help you” he snarled “get out of my den ,get out of my junkyard and get out of my town” he stepped forward menacingly

 

 

 

 

“Fine” I snarled “but if you need help I wont help you, Ill be proud to watch you die”. I spun around and walked out of the junkyard.

 

 

 

 

 

The streets

 The streets were empty, the cold wind still blowing silently through the alleyways. I stopped at Veara’s alley “Veara” I called “are you still…..  

 

 

 

Suddenly a huge shape rammed into me flinging me to the ground and knocking the wind from me. Before I could get to my paws huge paws pinned me to the ground. I looked up to see bloods deputy Scree, “snivelling piece of pup” he snarled “you warned the town dogs’ told them of us, deprived us of our kills”

“Yes” I interrupted “and I warned Scar too he will be waiting to rip you to pieces”

“Wrong” snarled Scree “we will be waiting to rip him to shreds and every other dog, starting with you” he sunk his long teeth into my throat. I let out a cry of pain and rage and struggled to free myself but he was too strong. I desperately looked for a place to strike and found his venerable belly exposed, glaring at him I raked my claws down his belly, Scree let out a yowl of pain and let go of my throat, I then kicked upward into his belly flinging him off me and onto the ground Then quick as a fish I leapt onto him and sank my teeth into his throat, he let out a cry of anger and threw me off him “pest” he snarled, he leapt at me again but I leapt nimbly aside and he crashed to the ground heavily. He let out a furious snarl and took a swipe at me missing. He got to his paws and leapt again I leapt upward,. Just as I was about to leap on him I felt a sharp stab in my neck crashing into his belly and sending him crashing to the ground were he lay winded. Just as I was about to leap on him there was a sharp pain in my neck and I was lifted off the ground then my attacker began to shake me from side to side shaking my bones painfully. My neck felt like it would rip apart. Suddenly just as the light started to fade there was a brown flash and I was flung to the ground. I looked up to see Buster pinning my attacker to the ground his lips pulled back in a vicious snarl to reveal thorn sharp teeth. For the first time I realized my attacker was blood. Blood snarled up at Buster and tried to throw him off but Buster held on and suck his teeth into Blood’s throat. Scree leapt onto Buster and pulled him off Blood. Buster turned on Scree and the two began to fight. Buster knocked Scree to the ground sank his teeth into Scree’s throat and raked his back claws down Scree’s belly. Scree gave a snarl and knocked buster off him and onto the ground, but before Scree could leap on him Buster rolled away and leapt to his paws. Scree crashed to the ground with an angry snarl. I looked around for Blood, he was Quietly watching the fight with narrowed eyes. Buster leapt on Scree before he could get to his paws and sunk his teeth into Scree’s throat. Scree let out a snarl and raked his claws down Busters shoulders, Buster snarled and tha two began to roll raking each other with their claws. Suddenly Buster let go of Scree’s throat and sunk his teeth into hi ear, Scree let out a yowl of pain and pushed Buster off him. Buster landed on his paws and leapt at Scree again then raising his paws he aimed a death blow to the throat. But before Busters could deal the death blow Blood knocked Buster off Scree and pinned him to the ground, Scree got to his paws and helped hold Buster down. Buster turned his head to me “run tam” he yowled "go". After a moments hesitation I spun around and raced down the street. I stopped for a moment and looked back to see Blood sink his teeth into Busters Neck and rip it open while Scree ripped open his belly with his claws. I bowed my head and spun around, racing away.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2 Days Later

 I opened my eyes and yawned it had been two days since Busters death and I blames Myself horribly. I stretched and got to my paws, I had made a bed for myself at the edge of town just near the mountains. I walked slowly over to the rubbish bin and rummaged through it. I had found and old chicken bone when I heard a yowl of pain, I dropped the bone and raced to the sound.

Veara was on the ground with Scree on top of her trying to rip open her throat.

“NO” I yowled “VEARA” I leapt onto Scree’s back and pulled him off Veara.

Scree turned on me “ahh the pup that got away” he snarled then crouched into an attack position.

Veara came up beside me and growled at Scree. I turned to her “you fool” I snarled “why did you come back."

Veara looked at me with sad eyes “I had to I had to see if you were alright “

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“I’m fine I growled “you must…..”. I was interrupted by Scree crashing into Veara and pinning her to the ground. Before I could stop him he sank his teeth into her throat and ripped it out. Veara’s body began to convulse and blood polled the ground. After a few moments the convulsing stopped and she lay still “ no” I yowled “Veara”. Before I could kill Scree he ran towards Scars pack, Then it hit me Bloods pack must have already invaded Scars pack.

Suddenly Veara’s body twitched and she lifted her head “ save the town Tam” she gasped

 

 

 

 

I looked down at her in amazement “Veara” I growled, I crouched down beside her “I’m sorry Veara I’m so sorry, I should have stopped Scree It’s my fault you died” I whispered

 

 

 

Veara raised her head slightly and touched her nose to mine “It’s not your fault” she growled “ I don’t blame you, I will never blame you’

“But I….

“You must save the town” she interrupted me, her voice barley more than a whisper “or all will be lost”. With that her head dropped and she lay still.

I bowed my head and pressed my face into her cooling pelt “Goodbye my friend I’ll always remember you’. Suddenly I felt a wave of pure anger run through my body, I looked down the street and glared after Scree. Then rising stiffly to my paws I ran after Scree, I wanted revenge wanted to rip Scree to pieces I lifted my head and howled into the sky “I’m coming Scar”.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Scars junkyard

I raced through the junkyard entry and saw Scree battling with Bone. Bone was Fighting desperately but Scree had him pinned to the ground and was ripping at his belly. Letting out a furious yowl I leapt onto Scree’s back and sunk my teeth into his throat and then bit down crushing his windpipe Scree let out a pained wail then fell to the ground dead. Bone scrambled upwards “Tam what are you doing here “ he gasped

I’m here to save the town’ I yowled. I nodded to him and raced towards scars den, Racing as fast as my as could carry me. I stopped a few metres outside Scars den and listened; I heard a terrible snarling and raced forward through the entrance.
