Nintendo High Sophomore Year

Getting along

It's been quite a while since Alaria decided to have shelter with Nika and Dasha. The 2 girls took turns watching over the wolf girl in the camper while sleeping in it. At the time, Alaria thought it would only last for a few days and then leave. However, over time, she was starting to get along with Nika and Dasha. It seems that after being along for so long, she didn't realize that she was desperate for some company. As a result, she decided to extend her stay as long as they cover her scent to make sure Tabo doesn't find her.

During the same time, Neo and his friends often sees her to check up on her. Neo and Alaria started to get closer, much to Krystal's annoyance. Krystal would often try to get in the way in order to make sure things don't go overboard. She was ashamed of her behavior, but she was scared Neo might be with Alaria till the end. But Neo always stayed with Krystal, which made her feel somewhat at ease.

Later one Friday Night, Alaria and Dasha were enjoying a good movie called Home Alone. They were laughing and such for all the crazy traps.

"Man. I never get tired of this." Dasha said as she wiped away her tear.

"He's a smart little boy to have trick those criminals." Alaria stated.

"That, or that they are so stupid."

"Which one?"

The bear and the wolf laughed again. The 3 got along so well since Dasha and Nika became her guards. Alaria was amazed by Dasha's compassion and love, as well as Nika's will and courage. After the movie, Alaria got comfortable to get some sleep.

"Thank you Dasha. You and Nika have been wonderful." Alaria said.

"No problem." Dasha smiled as she too got comfortable for some shut eye. "I can see why Neo sees you as a friend. You are amazing. You're almost like Stan."

"His friend?"

"And my God Brother."

Alaria soon got interested. "Really? Wow. That must be something."

"More than that." Dasha sighed. "Ever since his parents died, my mother took care of him for a while before she found a suitable mother to take care of him. She was heartbroken when Stan had to go, but it was for the best."

"Why?"

"Because my mother was a general in the UNSA, and her contract wouldn't let her leave until several years. Plus, living in the military base is no way for a baby to grow." Dasha then sighed sadly. "Still...we couldn't stop thinking about him every single day."

Alaria can sense Dasha's sadness. "I'm so sorry. It must be hard for someone you've grown quite attached to be away from you."

"It is." Dasha then looked at the wolf girl. "Alaria. Have you ever felt that way before?"

"Yes. I have..."Alaria then tried to hide her sorrow. Dasha can see this.

"I'm sorry. Maybe I..."

"No. You have the right to know Dasha. I wish Nika was here so I can tell her as well."

Dasha then chuckled. "Knowing her, she's probably having a party. She is considered a party animal. No pun intended."

"That's alright. Kind've reminds me of several Omegas being party wolves without a care in the world."

That popped a question that Dasha was meaning to ask. "Your pack...does it work the same way as the wolf park in prehistoric time?"

"Yes." Alaria said. "We use the rank system to help keep order within the pack and to survive. Alpha being the leader. Beta second in command. Mid-rank as warriors, teachers, and watcher of pups. And Omega as the lowest and most accusable level."
