Chapter 1

"Snowball? How is the pack are we low on prey?" Frost asks "No, The pack is fine we have plenty of prey. Why do you ask?" "Because I saw... well there was a, a Red fox pack." Says Frost with a whimper "How many?" Asks Snowball "Ten...no seven...thirteen, I'm not sure." Frost says as he lowers himself to the ground "But... they must be just passing by, they can't handle this weather." Snowball says with a look of worry on his face. I sit there listening to their whole conversation they don't notice me nobody does, ever since my mother and father died. "Sir, you don't understand its been getting warmer around here we might have to stand up for our land." Frost says and throws a glance at me "Go on then." Frost says staring at me, I scamper off. I don't get it just because my father was a Red fox and my mother an artic why I have to be treated differently, I have the fur of a Red fox but I have the soul of an Artic fox, so I can live in the tundra but I'm easily spotted by predators thats why before they died my parents made a pack.

Before they went to battle against a polar bear that day they told me the real reason behind the pack, to protect me. They died in battle. There are only fourteen of us, Snowball he watches over the pack and makes sure we're well fed, Frost he hunts for the pack along with three others, Winter, Snowstorm, and Claire. Then there is Donna she is a burrow digger, Mako he is a fighter, Coakley he is a fighter, Chewy she is a fighter, Nightspot she is in charge of collecting fish for the pack, Shadow is another fish hunter, Wonder is a gatherer she gathers berries and herbs, Angle is a gatherer, and then there is me I'm Redfur, I don't gather or hunt or fight. I'm a "wanderer" you can say, it's when your pack doesn't want you because you're different. I think it's unfair but others agree with it. They only put me as a wanderer because of my fur, just because I have red fur I'm treated different. I get the smallest prey, and the worst burrow. I'm not notified of any pack news they even exclude me from pack meetings, but things will change for the better.
