Wolves

Chapter 2

-Zara focus-
Zara awoke to find himself alone in the cave. He stood and looked around the cave for R. He stood by the mouth of the cave and looked out, hoping to spot a black selsa walking toward him.

He waited a few minutes. He gave up hoping for her to come back and decided to head back inside until he saw a familiar wolf.

He smiled and lightened.

R carried a rabbit in her mouth. She head for Zara and dropped the rabbit at his feet.

"What are you doing? It's dangerous outside the cave." R says, sounding as least concerned as she could, but she couldn't hide it from Zara. "Well, you're back now." Zara says. "Whatever." R shrugs.

They go back inside the cave and devour the rabbit, leaving only bones. R makes her way to Zara's side and tends to his wound.

"You okay?" R asks with concern. "Yeah." Zara answers and smiles. R lays down beside Zara who lay his head down.

Suddenly the rogue entered the cave, charging at R. The rogue grabbed her neck in her mouth and threw her, just like R had to her, toward the walls off the cave.

"Karma's a bitch." The rogue says, growling. R had hit head first against the cave wall and was knocked unconcious. The rogue turned her head to the zeta. "I can never return to the pack, but I hope we will not be enemies." She smiles to the terrified zeta and leaves, the zeta both terrified and confused.

R awoke. "You okay?" Zara asks worried. "Yeah I'm fine." R answered, head throbbing. Zara noticed R's pain and headed to her side. "That's a big wound." Zara says.

"We should get something for it." Zara says. "No, it's fine." R shakes her head. She lays down and so does Zara, right beside her.

Vins enter the cave wearing a worried expression. "Is everyone okay?" She ask. "R is-" Zara starts to speak and tell about R's injuries from the rogue, but is cut off by R. "Everyone's fine." She says.

"Wait Zara what were you going to say?" Vins asks. "Nothing, we're fine." Zara chuckles nervously, noticing the beta's tone was getting harsh. "What is it? You obviously know something." Vins says loosing patience.

"He said nothing." R says, standing on her four feet. She looks over Zara's head toward the beta. "Why can't you tell me?" Vins says, gritting her teeth. "Because there's nothing to say." R says, not seeming to care. "Ugh, whatever." The beta groans and turns away.

-Vins focus-
Vins storms out of the cave, starting at a low pace then picking it up.

"I don't need them anyway." She muttered to herself. There was no reason for this much rage, but this was how it was.

She kept running and running. Eventually, she found the rogue.

-Karma's point of view-
I was walking toward a strawberry field when my nose started to burn.

Someone was close.

My ears perked up and I turned toward the source. It was a familiar scent. The scent of the beta.

She came into view and colided with me as she was going too fast and I couldn't go anywhere, she was too close.

"Why don't you watch where you're going?" I growl at her, but I sensed something uneasy about her. "Ugh. It was an accident." She growls back, turning to head away from me. "Hey, you okay?" I ask, feeling the uneasiness grow. "Yeah I'm fine."

"Why would you care?" She asks, looking back at me. "Hey, I'm a rogue but I'm not heartless." I say, kind of offended.

"There's something making you uneasy." I say, softening my tone. She didn't respond. She just turned away. "Wait, where's the zeta and the selsa?" I say when I notice she was the one only there.

"None of your concern." She says. I scoff. Then I smelled something. I raised my head toward the sky.

"It's going to rain, you should find shelter." I warn her. "And where will that be, fortune teller?" She says turning back toward me. "My den is too far from here." She points out.

"Then come with me." I say. I scoffs. "Why would I go with you? You're a rogue." She remarks. "Because where else will you go?" I spit back. "Ugh, fine." She groans.

She follows me to the river. I swim across but she hesitates.

"What's wrong?" I ask. "Scared of water?"

"N-no." She blushes. "It's just, I thought you were going to find protection from the rain to avoid getting wet. Not be wet."

"The cave's right there." I gesture to a cave that was a few steps southwest of me. She swims across and goes with me inside the cave.

She shook the water off of herself. I being beside her, got all wet. She laughed while I frowned. I shook it back ok her.

"Don't you dare shake it back on me." I say after laughing. She does the opposite, making me wet again. Just then it started raining heavily. I pushed her out into it and shook off the water. She shrieked and ran back in. She shivered and shook the water off away from me.

"Karma's a bitch." I chuckle. "I hate you." She groans. "It's your fault." I remark. She just groans. I go to her side and gently pressed against the wound I had given her earlier.

"You okay?" I ask her. "Yeah, it's just a scratch." She smiles. I pile leaves for a makeshift bed. The beta did the same and lied down. I lay my head on my paw.

Then I saw something. A vision (I see... the VISION). It was Vins or what looked like her. What I saw was just little blurry figures, dancing, on the cave walls. The figure, that looked like Vins, turned away from what looked like me and head toward something else. Several wolves appeared. The figure joined them, blending in with the others. Then the wolves turned toward someone else. Me. It looked like the pack of wolves we're going to attack, but then the figure jumped out, protecting me.

Everything disappeared. There was a black cave wall.

"Hey Vins?" I call her. "Yes?" She raises her head. "I think... I think you leave your pack and become a rogue." I say. "Ok. But why?" She asks turning her head toward me. I shake my head. "I'm not sure." She hums in response. "How do you know this stuff?" She continues to question me. I stay quiet, then speak.

"I get visions." I say. "The figures aren't clear, but most of the time I can tell who they are. They tell me about things that will happen or things that are happening. They can be good or bad, usually bad." I finish explaining.

"Oh ok." She says and lies back down. I rest my head down and sleep.
