Early in the morning, Duke and Vv left the house ot search for some more food. It was nearly time for them to go back home and they didn't wanna go back empty-handed. Osa chose to stay behind with Donnie and Amber to make sure they were doing alright. She hardly got any sleep because of last night's ruckus. She is still trying to process what happened.

As she cleaned the fresh cuts on her face after tending to Amber, she remembers what happened.

...

Amber picked up her first scent of the animal she and the other shifters were hunting. To get a better smell of it, she climbed up a tree because the wind was blowing the deer's scent into the branches. Kodi rolled his eyes and wandered off to find something of his own. In his selfish opinion, he thought the girls should hunt so he could explore. "What do you smell?" Osa asked from the ground to Amber in the tree.

"It's a very strong hide smell. The deerskin." Amber explained.

Osa nodded. "Okay, come down so we can track it."

Amber looked for the branches she needed to climb back down but chose a limb of the tree that wouldn't hold her weight. When the branches broke underneath her, Osa shrieked in shock and watched as Amber fell to the earth, knocked out on the forest soil. "Amber!" She ran up to her limp body. "Hey, Amber, wake up!" Osa shook her. "Are you okay?!"

Right away, a voice made Osa gaze up. "What did you do?!" Kodi yelled from out of nowhere. The selfish brat came back from his little adventure.

Osa shook her head, catching on to what Kodi might be thinking. "No. I didn't do this. Amber, she--"

Kodi's ears pin back and flared his teeth at Osa. He actually roared. "You f*cking, lying, murderous, wretch!" He growled at her, his anger traveling back to the house.

Kodiak's regular appearance ripped toward his back and transformed into a Kodiak bear-- much bigger than the grizzly that Osa formed into. An average male Kodiak bear weighs 1,052 to 2,177 pounds while female grizzly bears weigh only about 290 to 440 pounds-- 500 if Osa is lucky! It isn't a very fair fight.

Both bears collide together, biting, roaring and clawing until one is put out like a light. Osa's aggression slowly escalates as she bit into Kodi's neck and shoved him into a tree. She tasted the blood on her teeth. He responds by dragging Osa's small grizzly body across the dirt and thrashing his head side to side, ripping whatever he could. Three yells came to see what was going on and begged for the fight to stop. Kodi punctured Osa's shoulder and left her on the ground to turn his business on someone else. When he took care of that, he grabbed Osa again violently. There was so much blood. No one knew who was who's.

Thinking that Kodi was going to win this fight, a gunshot made it all go away. Osa felt the male bear drop his weight and roll off her.

...

As Osa cleaned up the Mythical Shifter laying in the bed, she cleaned her cuts and checked on her bruises and felt terrible about the new lifestyle without Kodiak. He's dead and Amber won't know about it until she wakes up. Kodiak was dangerous and it was a matter of time until he... touche one of the girls inappropriately. As Amber rests, Osa walks back into the living room and sees Donnie is still resting after the terrible bloodshed from last night.

The turtle mumbled lightly in his sleep, showing off the odd-looking scars on his cheeks. Now that the natural light was coming through the window of the living room, Osa could see that Donnie really was real.
