Shaking Ground

Explanations

       Hope, Storm, and Emil had been talking for that last about half a hour about the whole Spike and Pride thing. "I see" Emil said while thinking. "Are you at all disappointed master" Hope asked in a quiet tone. "No... Not at all" Emil responded. "Really!" Hope and Storm responded in a excited voice. "I honestly think that this is good for your training. Having to handle being a Alpha and training your howl of the elders is good for you" Emil explained. Just then Alex padded up and said " what's all the commotion about" in a happy voice. "We just were kinda filling Emil in on the current situation of the pack, and yes he knows about the Spike and Pride incident" Hope informed Alex. "Ok, that's good" Alex replied. "Hold on, I have a quick question" Storm said. "What is it" Emil and Hope asked. "Well... since Emil is part of the pack we need give him his rank so Spike and Omega can fix up a bedding area for him and he can start learning was to do and what not to do to help the pack" Storm explained. "Oh dang, I didn't even think about that yet" Alex said for the whole camp to her. Hope then shot Alex a quick glance to tell he to quiet down. "Well... in my past packs I've been a guard or soldier because of my strength and quick thinking" Emil informed the 3 thinking wolves. "Ok, I think me a Storm will discuss your rank will tell you before high moon" Hope confirmed to Emil. "Ok thank you young Hope" Emil said as he walked off into a small group of pack mates to introduce himself and meet his new pack members.

      As Hope and Storm walked back to Hopes den to discuss Emil's rank Shadow and Pride sprinted up and tried to tell them something but they were out of breath from running a long distance to get back to camp in a rush. "Hold on, calm down and tell us in a relaxed voice" Storm commanded. Once, Pride could catch his breath he finally spoke "While we were hunting Spike ran off and we cant find him. I have the other hunters in 2 groups of 3 to try and find him"
