Streaker whipped around, ears pricked. "What.... Birch, report."
The black and white wolf was panting, green eyes wide. "The Endless Field Group! They're coming! There going to kill us all!"
Streaker's eyes darkened. "Lilac, Adda, Rockey, stay here; and protect Aprika and the pups! Get Moonrise, Bee, and Crow in with them! Fleck, you come with me."
Fleck nodded, and followed Streaker and Birch into the forest. Fleck suddnly thought of something. "Wait!" she called.
Streaker and Birch stopped. "What is it?"
Fleck raised her chin. "If we get more wolves, we can drive them back to their own territory."
Streaker's eyes gleamed. "Good idea." he agreed. "I know the place to make the wolves gather."
"Follow me."

Fleck was exhausted by the time Streaker and Birch reach a short cliff. She looked around. This isn't familiar... she thought.
Streaker had bounded up the cliff by a trail that ran by its side, and let out a long, summoning howl. "Wolves of the forest! An emergency meeting has been called!"
There was a brief moment of silence, then many howls echoed though the forest, and shapes emerged from the undergrowth. Wolves of all sizes, colors, and age appeared from the forest, eyes bright with curiosity.
Streaker looked down, his eyes dark. "We are being attacked! The Group of Endless Fields are raiding us!"
There were howls and snarls from the wolves below the cliff, and Fleck could see anger glimmering in all of their eyes.
Streaker let out a loud bark. "I need two groups of strong wolves to come with me! Fleck, Birch, Meadow, Dephane, Bush, Ripples, and Cloudy! You come with me. Heather, Seedy, Mild, Snake, and Milky! You will stay sneak up from behind the enemy and attack them from that way. Everyone else, stay here, I'll send a messenger for help if we need it."
The wolves chosen quickly got into their groups, and the others murmured excitedly to each other. Streaker came down from the cliff, and he ran into the forest, the party following right behind him.
Fleck felt a flicker of excitement, her earlier weariness gone, and her fighter blood sprang up. I'm ready to right for all of the wolves gathered in the clearing!
Fleck was ready to fight anyone, ready to fight for Finch, and the very thought made her almost leap ahead of Streaker. But there was a inner voice inside her.
Don't worry, you'll avenge Finch's death one day.
