Shadow stared at Stone-tooth for what seemed like an eternity. The rest of the pack stood staring at Shadow, in awe that this was is his sister. But Stone-tooth, however, sat calmly.

"Join you? After you nearly killed my pack, mate and children?" He had answered.

"Mate? Children? It would be great for them to join too." She replied. Sun and River padded up warily to Shadow. Sun whispered to her father, "We have an aunt?" Stone-tooth looked at the two wolves and spoke calmly, "Why not join me? It doesn't have to be permanent. Come and explore the life of a rogue, and see for sure if you'd like to stay."

"Now listen Stone-tooth, I left the life of loner a long time ago. What makes you think I'm coming back?"

"Think of your children, Shadow. Let them explore."

River jumped in immetietly. "Yes, please dad! Can I go? Just for a day...? I'll come right back!"

Shadow was not sure. But he always wanted his pups to be happy. And a while back he would've wanted his pups to grow up rogues.
