Ti happily runs up to his mentor and tells him about everything, "Yes I have been watching everyone's progress" Arkoh replies, proudly. His voice was very clear and Mordecai liked that.
He turns to Mordecai, bowing, "Yours as well, young Moonlight wolf." Mordecai looks at him and slowly nods. Zip, Zoom, and Dash all walk up as well to him. Arkoh sits up "Thank you everyone for guiding Mordecai safely to the forest, but I'm afraid our path comes to an end" he states. Zip looks at Kai and asks "What does that mean?" "It means...he's going with me and Arkoh to the city, then the village, and finally to the Moonlight kingdom!" Ti butts in with excitement. Kai sighs and nods in agreement. "Mordecai are you really leaving us to go save the world and stuff?" Zoom asks, giving a wounded look. "Yes he is. He has a destiny to unravel" Arkoh answers, looking back at the hybrid. "So this is the end buddy?" Dash asks. Mordecai slowly nods then yells "GROUP HUG!" Zip and his two older brothers hug him tightly. "Okay can y-you guys get off, you're squeezing me and I can't breathe" Mordecai laughs, desperately gasping for air. They release him and laugh. Mordecai turns and walks towards Ti. He then waves his tail goodbye to them. Arkoh turns to Zip, whose eyes were filled with tears, "It's alright young one, right now there are others that need him more." He assures the bumble bee pup, "make sure you and your brothers take Kai to Grounder safely" He adds. Zip wipes his tears and nods. "Shall we go Ti?" Arkoh asks. "Indeed. Goodbye everyone and take care!" Ti agrees then howls back. Kai and the others did the same and left. Mordecai and the other two wolves run through the forest quickly.
"Arkoh, why are we running so fast?" Mordecai yells, trying to catch his breath.
Arkoh replies back "We can get to the city faster this way." As they run Mordecai turns around and sees Ti lying on the ground, huffing. He stops and runs back towards the wolf, picking him up and flying quickly. He finally catches up to Arkoh who is already at the exit of the forest. Mordecai drops Ti and collapses on the ground, breathing heavily. "Man he's heavy!" "Hey, I'm not that fat. I'm beefy!" Ti protests. Arkoh chuckles and turns to the stone door. He put his paw on the wall and utters a saying:
May the path be revealed, my heart tells me north. The way of the city lies ahead. Let those who are worthy; lead the way to the city of wolves, there they say.
The wall lifts up and reveals a path with stone walls and a stone pathway. They all walk in and Mordecai notices the words and drawings. The words said the exact same thing Arkoh had said and some surprises. The drawings had the symbols of the kingdoms. Lightfeather had a bright white feather, Starlight had blue and purple stars, Moonlight had a grayish moon with a black aura, Cloudwhirl had a fluffy cloud, Firebirth had a rugged volcanic rock, Greenwood had moss on a tree stump, Blizzardclaw had a mountain with snow on top, and there was Tidalfall. Tidalfall did not have a symbol it instead it had a description under it said:
"The kingdom was heard of but, it was never discovered."
Mordecai wondered to himself for a moment, Will I ever get to see these other kingdoms?
As they got to the exit, Mordecai could spot something in the far distance. It was Wolgon City. They finally made it to the capitol of Anzellix.

Kai walks over to the nearest tree stump and stands there tiredly. Huffing, she glances up to see Zip running towards her with a worried look upon his face. "A-are you okay?" He asks, looking at her in shock. Kai sits down and raises her paw a bit, "Yeah I'm fine" she replies, getting back up and walking away from the wolf pup. "Hey, wait!"
The blue wolf stops and turns to face the wolf pup, "What is it?" She asks, with a look of concern displayed on her face.
Zip looks down at his paws, "W-well I thought...you know we could go for a walk" he says, nervously. Kai looks at him and smiles, "I'd like that." Zip happily jumps up, "O-oh okay, I'll go tell my brothers to wait here...or somewhere close." Then he turns away and runs towards his brothers, trying to catch up. Zip returns, with a smile of approval.
"They said sure" he tells her. Kai stands up, "Good to hear, let's go" She responds with a small smile.
The forest's green shown as an elegant quiet evening, calming the creatures that walk in its path. As they we're walking, Kai turns her head towards the youngest brother. "I...know you're sad, he'll be back, don't worry." Zip sighs "I know it's just...I'm scared that the world will end and that, we'll all lose everything. Is he really some type of special hero?" Kai's eyes widen in shock and she shakes her head, "Now you know that's not true" she assures, "We all believe that Mordecai will end this once and for all. He is a hero that will be the light in these terrible times of darkness." Zip looks at her calmly and she spots a spark of relief in his eyes. "You really think so?" He asks, frowning a bit. "I'm sure of it" Kai replies "After all he is the heir to a king."
