Don Yonell nods to my aunt and enters the portal. Appearing beside Alpha Reuben. As if in a trance, Don Yonell's voice transforms into a voice no longer his own. A female voice of unfathomable power and might continues where Titi (aunt) Cary stops, the goddess. "I am Ochum, Goddess of the river and life's fertility, the youngest sister of your goddess. For years Luna Sable I have watched you attend and love my child as if he were born of your blood. By the union of my new protectors I will bestow you a gift most sacred. Do you wish to have a child ALPHA Reuben & LUNA Alejandro?" So gently uplifting is her voice, all gasping at its melodic tone. Both respond "YES Ochum" Their gaze l

"Do you wish for my special cub to be this child?"

Both Alpha & luna, looking with their hearts to Ben say "yes, my Goddess Ochum"

"and will your oath extend to him as it does for all living things."

All present now kneel showing respect. This is her will and no one will oppose it. Standing side by side, both Alpha Reuben and Luna's hands clasp each other, their response a blend of humility and pride, "EVEN MORE SO." eyes expressing protective joy and reverence. Seen releasing Luna's hand stepping to stand beside his father, Both blood-related Alphas begin extending their inflamed hands. Lean downwards preparing to place them on Ben's left and right shoulders. For a moment, Ben looks at both blood-related Alphas, his eyes unsure, causing them to halt in their advance.

With reluctance and uncertainty, I look to my father. My questioning eyes combine with my hesitant statement "father?" and he changes. Before everyone, Father growls at the Alpha's warning them to proceed no further, then advances stiffly to me. They part, granting him access to me. Father extends his arms around my neck and kisses my forehead, causing me to squeal with a bow, burying my enormous head into his chest.

His words are my strength "Whether bear or wulf YOU are always MY cub. Do you understand me?" When I look into his eyes, Glow they do. Two spirits, one body speaks to me "I love you as you are and accept you as you have always been to me Benjamin, MY CUB." His soul, his illuminated eyes, his love for me exceed his words. It was all I needed.

Pulling back. I meet father's gaze and find what I have forgotten he gave me. In his eyes, I see my father. My father. The wulf who raised me, taught me to live as a bear, protected me and always will. His has always been ferocious unconditional love. His paternal love that is only mine. Blindly prepared to challenge every force alive just to protect me. Remembering the moments when I was a cub and I have gotten to see his smile. the play fight he did with me. The fishing he taught me to do. He was in human form, looking silly, all wet, flopping around in the water. Standing in the river, with the fish swimming past him.

How he held me next to him as we slept in the cabin. And when I screamed, I would receive his reassuring hugs and kisses along with those of my pack. There will never be any doubt. He will always be there for me as I will him. He will always love me. Because he is.. MY FATHER. Gently pulling back, I tell him so. "Yes, father. Know this, I do." Having found my strength, I tell him.

"But I will be who I've always wanted to be." I say to myself. I reach up and kiss Luna's cheek, then our foreheads touch as always. Gazing once into his powerful gaze, I smile to my father "You always have." Gently, I release myself from father's embrace. Turn from him and take a step. Re-kneeling in front of the Alphas, I am ready. Father is strong..... So am I. Looking at them, with eyes intensely glowing amber. My doubt, thank you father..... gone.

With clarity, fearless my eyes began to glow with strong intensity, a deep amber color matching the Blood-related Alphas. My words are a fierce force of fullness, pride and conviction. My voice baritone "My river Goddess Oshun I. WILL. BE. Wulf." The goddess continues addressing my fathers "Do you wish for my special son to be that child?" It's a booming response that is no longer heard coming solely from Alpha and Luna. Rather a force of one resonates, heard from the whole pack "YES!". Both palms holding halved wulf headed symbols of the Blood-Related ALPHA's become enveloped, blazing powerfully high in ice blue color flames.

Ochum completes her words "Then before where resided the soul of a wulf within the body of a bear. Let my final blessing be granted. Releasing the wulf from within the bear. Bringing peace to the SON of my Celestial Alpha & Luna Guardians. Uniting a family truly deserving of a cub. Welcome home...my nephew."

As one, their palms lean gently, touching down on Ben's shoulders. The ignited transformation symbol begins growing. Its ice blue fire leaves the palms of the Alpha's, to enter along ben's body. Spreading like veins just under and throughout Ben's enormous back, forming a deep red wulf head. His body immediately radiates, glowing as the markings find one another and connect. Coming forward over his shoulders to repeat the same wulf head pattern on his chest only silver. Each fiery outline tracing itself all throughout his body. The ice blue fire now encompasses Ben entirely. We watch as a single emblem rises from the markings, extending off Ben's huge bulk-forming two large snarling wulf headed emblems merge. One fire then another of ice. Both into one with amber illuminating eyes.

Ben roars doubling over in pain. He phases to his Kodiak bear form then back to his human form then once more to his bear form. Cousin Luna bellows "BEN!!!" He leaps, pushing past the Alphas firmly as he grabs and hugs Ben. His eyes turn deadly silver, directed at everyone. Its livid message clearly combines with the electricity which explodes outwards encompassing both bodies "GET AWAY!"
