Raven woke up and stretched, she didn't dare talk to any other wolves today besides Snowy, her siblings, and her cousins. She slept through the whole night, and now it was morning. The sun lit the horizon a light orange, and Raven felt the cold morning air whiff her fur. She pawed at her family and mate to wake them up to tell them about her dream.
"Yes?" they all replied with raspy voices.
"Follow me.." Raven led them to the tree rock.
"What's this about?" Katie asked worried.
"I had a HeavenPack dream last night, a dark gray he-wolf and a black she-wolf were padding next to each other, then they found me. They are our grandparents. Blackstorm and Violet are our parents. Our alpha, Duke, supports DarkPack, and he said when he dies Thunder will be alpha, but I might've killed Thunder yesterday." Raven blurted out nervously. Everything and every wolf were silent, then Goldenglow was first to break it.
"Huntress told me you did." he barked.
"I can't believe my father, he's a traitor. No wonder, only Stormleaf, my mother was there for me, he always treated Primrose as his mate and Thunder his amazing son." Snowy snarled.
"So Blackstorm and Violet are me and Frostcrow's uncle and aunt?" Twinkle asked.
"Yes. Dark Lord erased our past memories, when we all would've still remembered it. He did it for Duke since he supports him." Raven replied. Duke's howl broke the silence after Raven's words.
"Dawn hunting patrol: Silverfur, Swift, Scarfur, and Primrose." he woofed to the crowd of pack members. No, don't put Silverfur and Primrose together! Primrose is mean and is jealous that Silverfur is mates with Glacier. Raven watched as the patrol padded out of the den arena.

Raven was drinking berry juice when she scented the wolves on the dawn hunting patrol enter the den arena. Then she scented Thunder. What is he doing here? She looked up to see his limp body in front of Primrose, her expression was angered. Graylight was shocked as he padded a little more forward in front of Raven. Duke seemed to have noticed the sudden silence and walked out of his den and through the crowd.
"WHAT?!" he roared.
"That's what I would like to know." Primrose snapped. Raven exchanged glances with Snowy and Goldenglow.
"Try sniffing at it to see who did it." Duke commanded.
"Okay." Primrose leaned her head down. No, no, NO! She sniffed at it and her pelt started bristling with surprise and anger. "RAVEN!" she hollered to every wolf. Duke's eyes widened and he growled.
"Raven, you are exiled. NEVER COME BACK. WHAT WERE YOU THINKING FLEABAG?!" Duke clawed at Raven's flank and chased her out. Well yesterday I planned on leaving FrostPack for good anyway. She scented her family and mate following behind, hearing Duke's aggressive yelling and growling. "DON'T COME BACK! AND SNOWY, I NEVER WANTED YOU AS MY SON!" he hollered, standing outside of the den arena.

Raven and the other wolves were panting as they made their way to the frozen river.
"Did you even say goodbye to Electric or Swift?" Fenix asked Goldenglow.
"Yes. I was able to say a quick goodbye." Goldenglow replied, his eyes were watering. Raven felt a pang of sympathy for her brother, leaving family is hard to do.
"Speaking of family, I'm going to have my pups soon." Raven barked.
"I'm happy for you." Twinkle murmured.
"Thanks." Raven licked Twinkle's ear.
"Where are we going though?" Frostcrow asked. No wolf answered, but Raven knew. She pictured the FirePack and FrostPack river, its calming moving water noise filling the silent forest. And then, as following the river, the ground became rockier, and there was a beautiful cliff. The river had its own feelings and personality, it was calm and then started thundering down the cliff and turned calm all the way into another smooth river.

"We're going to the rocky path." Raven stated.
"How are we going to make shelter and wolf life there?" Frostcrow asked in disbelief.
"Well I think Raven should be our leader, our alpha female, and Snowy the alpha male." Twinkle mentioned.
The other wolves nodded in agreement.
"Good idea!" Lupo raised his voice in excitement.
"Well Frostcrow, you'll see, it's a surprise." Raven murmured.
"Have any ideas for what to call our pack?" Snowy asked Raven.
"SkullPack." she replied.
