Chapter X

It had only been a month since Lola has left us — I was still depressed and couldn't even be my normal, happy go self but instead just lay down and do nothing — Bella is slowly getting back to herself, but she's still depress over Edward but she would go out with her friends.

Charlie took me to the reservation to spend time with Jacob and his friends — it helped a lot and made me forget about Lola, even though I could still feel the pain but not as much as it was before.

••°••°••°••°••°

One day when I was out playing with Jacob along with Quil and Embry; a couple of Jacob friends and most of them here at the reservation. They mostly fought with Jacob like they're a couple of dogs play fighting — just like at this moment when Jacob took this moment to "attack" him by the side.

I chuckle as I drop the stuff animal on the ground just as I saw a blur just like I saw the day Bella went missing — I felt tore to just stay or go chase it to find the answer.

I chose to investigate it.

I ran inside the forest to find out what this thing is but to only find myself deeper into the forest — I think I lost whatever it was. Then I felt something jump onto me — the only reaction is to fight back but to only be pinned to the ground from something that had its claw onto my chest.

"You know it's usually the female chasing the male, not the other way around." A voice said. It sounded...like a female. 

I turn my head to see it was indeed a female husky with a white coat with black markings with tints of grey like that of a wolf — what I find unique about her is her one blue eye and one brown. I was in awestruck by them, they almost tell a story.

She giggles, "I manage to dumbstruck a male dog." She jumps off of me and starts to sniff me, I groan as I got up as I eye her. "Are you okay? I didn't cause any back problems, did I?"

"I'm fine. Thank you.." I trailed off, asking for her.

"Kore." She replied.

It's a beautiful name for a beautiful female.

"What's a dog like you doing here? And following me?" She ask me.

"Well," I let out a nervous chuckle. "I was gonna ask you the same thing."

"I live here, dork." She replied and trots away. 

I was confused. What did she means she "Lives here"? No dogs can survive out in the wilderness, especially forests.

She then hops onto a log and look down at me — I realize that she's leaving, "Wait!" I cried as I step onto a lone rock — I tried not hiss at the feeling of the rock pressing into my paws, she stops in her tracks and look at me. "Will I be able to see you again?" I ask.

Kore chuckles as she slow steep to to where my nose is close to hers, "We'll see," She looks down at my nametag then back at me, "Artemis." She then licks my nose and disappear! Not even Lola did that.

I just stood there completely agape at what just happen.

••°••°••°••°••°

That evening I was taken back to The Swan's house — I couldn't sleep with dreaming about Kore, along with the screams of Bella's nightmare, I wonder how does Charlie do this? I'm sure he's lacking sleep without being on height alert of Bella's cries.

I sigh as I lay back down and fell asleep.

Dreaming of her. Kore.

••°••°••°••°••°

"You saw a female Husky roaming in the woods?" Hansen ask me. I told the boys everything I saw yesterday, I only tell Hansen since he was more quiet and wise than his younger brother.

"Well yeah." I replied.

Hansen just snorts, "Dogs don't survive out in the wild. Especially huskies." He told me.

"Well maybe she has a pack." I deduce.

"Maybe."

We then saw three more dogs ran past us, one I recognize imminently. "That's her!  — Kore!" I then took off. I jump over the gate and into the forest.

Ignoring the sounds of everyone calling my name.
