It has been two days since the asshole Elites have escaped. The council sent out guards along with some of the Trikru warriors to scout the area but they came back empty handed.

"There is no trace of them Mr. Kane. I don't know where else to look," Major Bryne tells him and he nods. "It's okay Major, don't worry about it. When people don't want to be found, they'll leave no trace."

Lou, one of the Alpha's best warriors approached Kane and said, "Some of our warriors went a few more miles out, almost close to the Mountain Pack and found nothing."

"Do you think that maybe they went to the Mountain? They know of them. Why would they risk their lives just like that?" Major Byrne asked and Lou answered, "I don't know but that thought has crossed my mind."

Back at TonDC, Clarke and O are doing much better with their training. They no longer feel too sore and have been gaining experience in fighting. O has also made it up to Lexa and Clarke for her lack of energy those nights ago three times already and the future Luna was left more than satiated each time.

The Purebloods have also been doing well. Since they saw Ontari's fight and the Trikru' members warmly welcoming her into the pack, they have asked to become pack members as well. The Purebloods were never given a chance to live, but the Trikru Pack has given them that opportunity. They never had friends, they've never had so many people willing to help them without expecting anything in return. They were never given any support of any kind like what this pack has given them and is continuing giving them. They never expected to live past a few more days until Clarke and Raven saved them. They never expected their wolves to run free in the forest to hunt, to feel nature like they have been doing for the past few days. They never expected that their wolves would form a pack but they have. Sometimes, they have to pinch themselves to realize that what they are experiencing is actually living and not surviving. Most of all, they never expected to find mates and some of them have. Maya and Troy are confident that they will find their mates.

Encouraged by their friends and mates, Chester and Wells have also asked to become members however, Wells' training will be delayed for some time until his arm can properly mend which Nyko believes would be in about a month or a little more.

As their own pack, the Purebloods still go hunting and prefer to keep close to Libby's territory without bothering the mama pauna. On one of their hunts, Talon, Leo and Mist brought down a bear and so the three wolves offered it to Libby. Naturally, she was defensive but just like Sky, they submitted, pulling their ears back and displaying their stomachs. Again, Libby was confused and after the wolves retreated into the forest, she picked up the bear and took it to her home. Watching their interaction, on their hunt last night, Storm, Dawn and Coal as well offered her a moose and did the same as the others. Not so confused as before, Libby took a step towards the big game and stood tall. She then banged on her chest and the wolves gave out small howls of joy. Again, just like the others, the wolves backed away slowly, giving her space and after they retreated to the shadows, she took the moose to her home.

They have sworn to protect her and so once they came back from their hunt, O informed the Alpha of what had transpired. Of course, he was surprised.

"How could you make friends with a pauna?" he had asked, astounded at what he had just heard. Fay and Anya were with him and they couldn't believe it either but Bellamy reassured them that it was true. "Animal instincts," he told them shrugging.

"She has a baby and I - we won't deprive that baby from its mother. In time, she'll grow up but as long as we don't interfere with them, they'll stay in their territory," O told them.

"How can you be so sure? What will happen when there is no more food for them to eat?" Fay asked and O simply replied, "Because they will be the only apex predators in the area. I would like to leave that abandoned village to her. No one is to hunt around her area. We do but in wolf form and she has come to trust us. I'd like to keep it that way."
