Part 7

She most likely put medicine on it or something he thought. He reached towards the food as Badflower walked in "I got the pain medic-" Overcast stopped and turned to him "Where did you get that! Don't eat it!" Bad flower dropped a green pouch from his mouth and kicked the bowl of food away from Overcast. "What?!" Overcast yelped while moving his head back to avoid getting kicked. "That bowl was found outside the territory last night, Hooten put it out. It's sprinkled with poison!" Overcast laid down his head in thought, Did Rose just try to kill me?..Nah she is nice, he concluded. "Who and how did you get that?" Bad flower asked. Overcast looked up at his worried mate's expression. "It was here already. I thought it was for me" Overcast lied to him. If I tell Rose will most likely be yelled at or banished, it was a mistake..right? Overcast thought while laying down. "Oh.." Badflower mumbled, he grabbed the small bag and walked to the wall beside Overcast. The wall had been carved into a shelf, Badflower placed the bag on the shelf next to pictures that also laid there. "If it hurts even more let me know I'll give you the painkillers,it's getting late and Pipet allowed me to stay here with you so.." "Come here" Overcast said, patting his tail to lay next to him. Badflower gave a sad smile and laid next to him. Overcast gripped his tail as they closed their eyes and slept. Pipet laid awake though, like the other wolves in her squad. Earlier she had assigned Rose, Sun and X -ray to patrol their borders with the other packs of power. She then had HeavyDirtySoul, Fernsong and Stitchez to see if they could find the attacker. Ocean laid guard over her lege looking for intruders. Rain and Hearts were in the healer's den making medicines and casts in case a wolf may need it. While Pipet and Nimrod ventnor through the forest to find any unusual scents or unusual activity to locate any other harm that may have come.

Pipet walked through the woods with Nimrod walking behind."Why did you want me to come with you if you don't mind me asking?" "Since you are blind, I assume you use your other senses quite often. And by the way you're moving between trees I can tell that they are extremely high and you can see with your other scenes. Like making a picture" Nimrod was pretty speechless. "Wow, you're smarter than what other wolves say" Pipet stopped and turned around. "Other wolves? You mean HeavyDirtySoul or like?" Pipet turned towards him and flicked her tail in confusion. "I meant HeavyDirtySoul" He mumbled, afraid he was about to get beat up by a girl. "And what does he say about me?" she added quickly. "Mmmmmmmmm" Nimrod raised his left paw and just barely pushed Pipet back from coming any farther. "MHM?" " He said.. YOUR SMART AND BEAUTIFUL" Nimrod finished his sentence quickly. "But you just said I'm smarter than what he thinks-" Pipet was interrupted. "You know what I have a great idea. Let's split up Ima go over here you look over there to the left, okay? Great! Meet yah back here at full moon" Nimrod spoke extremely fast. He put his paws down and speed walked the other direction. "Wha-at?" Pipet stood in confusion. "Ook" she turned around and continued to look for anything odd. She entered the old water pack. She walked into the abandoned camp, old times rolled through her head as she walked through it. Sudden paws stepped behind her and she turned quickly. "Nimrod?" she said scanning for a wolf. She looked through the brush and caught a pair of blue eyes, knowing Nimrod was blind and only had a scar she quickly identified the wolf as NOT NIMROD.
