Misha ran up the stairs and into Rons room where Hanovi seemed to be resting and Ron was busy putting his books away. Out of breath she asked, "Is she ok?" Ron looked over surprised to see her standing there. "I managed to take the poison out of her body before it became dangerous, so yes madam, she should be fine. She just needs her rest." He barked. Misha breathed a sigh of relief. "Im glad." She barked then walked out so Hanovi could get her rest. Ron mumbled, "says the person who almost killed her..." Then continued to put his books away. Misha walked over to Alexi's room. The door was closed. She paws at the door, "Alexi may i speak to you?" Alexi left the door shut, "what is it?" Misha took a deep breath, "Why did you tell Queen Oma that I threatened to hurt you when i didnt?" "What? I didnt say that." "Who else would have? Plus you hate me anyways so of corse you would!" "Misha....I dont hate you. I just think that your skills in the wild could use improvement." "But you make fun of me about it! It seems like u forced me into this just so you could get me in trouble!" "Misha i didnt.." "STOP LYING!" Misha ran off with tears forming in her eyes. When she passed Rons room she noticed Hanovi was up. She wiped her tears and walked in. "Are you ok?" "Im fine....Misha did you..." "Of corse i didnt! Why does everyone think that..." "Dont worry Misha, i trust u." Misha calmed down and sat. Hanovi barked, "Someone must be trying to trick us. keep an eye out. "
The seasons changed from fall to winter and nothing strange had occurred. Everyone had grown their big fluffy winter coats and mostly stayed inside due to large snow storms. One morning after the weather died down an unfamiliar howl came from outside the castle. Everyone who was awake gathered near the drawbridge to see what was going on. Queen Oma ordered everyone to step back to make sure no one pulled the lever till she knew it was safe. "Who are you?" Queen Oma howled back. "Who the heck do you think it is?!" The voice barked back. "Ummm...excuse me?" Oma barked. "Your telling me you have FORGOTTEN?! Oma I dont believe you." Everyone tilted their heads. Oma answered, "Who are you?" "THE ONE WHO HAS HAD YOUR TORTUROUS CHILD FOR A YEAR!!!!" The voice shouted. Borawark barked, "Oh your highness its Alcanerian." "I know that. ALRIGHT ALKIE WILL YOU QUIT YELLING!! YOUR GUNNA WAKE EVERYONE!!!" Oma shouted back. "YOUR THE ONE WHOS YELLING!!!!" Alcanerian barked loudly. Cori facepawed and walked down the stairs dragging his wings, "should I open it you highness?" He managed to bark just before he yawned. "No i will." Queen Oma pulled the lever to pull down the draw bridge. As soon as the draw bridge hit the thick snow the wolf walked closer. She was a red, white and black wolf with a brand/tattoo mark on her upper thigh that was a circle with an A inside of it. She had a silver earring and chains attached to 2 of her legs. Cori stepped forward and looked around, "where's Clarine?" He barked. Alcanerian answered, "You seem rather concerned about her, shes right...." She looks behind her to find that nothing is there, "well...she was here." Queen Oma sighed, "Cori go find her. Everyone else get to work. Alkie come with me." Cori nodded and flew off. Misha and Bodder headed outside together to do their jobs. Misha strayed away from bodder and ran off towards her deer friends who had been helping her with her job in return for her help in keeping them safe. On the way there, an enormous ball of fluffy white fur with wings flew at her, knocking her over. "Sorry!," it barked, "I should warn people when im gunna make a crash landing.....wait where did u go?" She looked around then felt something move underneath her, "oh. Sorry." She barked as she got off of Misha. She was a big white winged wolf with an extremely long tail. She looked at Misha and tilted her head, "Orochu?? You look younger and more...feminine." She barked. Misha got up, "Im not Orochu, hes my dad. Im new to the castle." Her giant tail started to wag, "YAY a newcomer!" She barked as she jumped to hug Misha, "Ive always wanted to have new friends at the castle." Misha tried to struggle out of the hug, "you're....squeezing me too hard...." She whined. At that moment Cori flew down. The wolf loosened her grip and let go of Misha, then jumped tackled Cori. "Your still alive? I cant believe it!" She barked while wagging her tail. "Well thats kinda insulting." Cori barked back while enduring her squeezing, "Come on we need to get back to the castle." Clarine sighed then started to head back. Before Cori left he barked, "Thank you" to Misha then flew off.
Later that day Queen Oma called Alcanerian and Clairine to her meeting room. "Thank you, Alkie, for taking care of my daughter." Queen Oma barked. "Anything for an old friend." Alcanerian barked back. Queen Oma smiled, "You are free to stay if you choose." "Well i have no where else to be so why not?" "Verry well, Cori will take you to your room." She howled for Cori to come. He came quickly swooping sown the stairs. As he passed Clairine he whispered, "Meet me by the top of the castle at sunset." Then took Alkanerian to her room. Soon after Clairine asked,"So is my room still next to Cori's?" Queen Oma answered, "No, your room will be down here with me now." "But mom...." Clairine whined but she was interrupted, "No, listen Clairine, you need to learn to become a proper princess, you are not a pup anymore!" At that moment Nyla barged in, " Your highness, I need to speak with you. It's important." She barked. "Alright, Clarine we will get back on this subject later." She barked and walked out the door.
