Shadows, book 2. Soulless puppet

Part 16

Sun tore off in the direction of his pack not looking behind him. Sun felt like there was someone chasing him but he didn't dare look back. Sun ran into Ocean who was looking very worried and they both fell over "OCEAN, I'm sorry" Sun sobbed at her as he got up. "Well find Hearts, there's no need for tears.." A shadow emerged behind the brush. "It's not that.." Sun looked at the ground as the shadow-like wolf began to creep out of the shade. "IT'S THUNDER" Sun said, looking back up at Ocean with his eyes now black as the night sky just like Thunders was. "SUN!" Ocean yelped, backing away. Out of the shadows HeavyDirtySoul emerged. His eyes had been swallowed by a black fire. "I'm afraid it's time you leave," He barked. "WHAT DID YOU DO!?" Ocean snapped back. "My job" HeavyDirtySoul Growled. "Get rid of her" He said as he began to walk away. "What!?" Sun growled and he quickling jumped on Oceans back. He began to bite and scratch as Ocean tried to keep him back while not injuring him too badly. Eventually she threw him off and blood dripped from her back to her neck. "What's gotten into you!?" Sun said nothing and got back up and tried to kill her.

Ocean began to run towards the camp with Sun close behind her she reached the valley and saw the wolves crying and sniffing for a trail she stopped then looked back and Sun was gone. She turned back at the camp and decided that the wolf was more important than finding the savage Sun. As she walked into the healers den she realized what had happened. Stitchez lay on the ground silent and quiet. You could still see where his tears were. X-ray sat next to Stitchez with his head down, as Pipet was a dear friend to him. Bad Flower lay on the other side of the room crying his eyes out. As Ocean looked around she knowest Rose wasn't in sight. Riptide sat by Rain's bed and sighed, "This is worse than not knowing where my brother-Sunshine-is." Ocean walked around the clearing and used her water powers to heal herself. Ocean looked at all the other wolves who were muttering together. Ocean scanded the clearing and sighed. Ocean looked up at the sky and muttered, "Why didn't we keep more people behind?" Ocean thought she heard a faint whisper of a voice say, "Because you didn't think it through." Ocean turned around but saw no one. She sighed and started to walk away to her den. Bad Flower staggered out of the median den and stood at the entence to his and Overcast's den. Bad Flower broke out into fresh tears.

Ocean turned around and walked over to him, "It'll be okay Bad Flower. We're going to get Overcast and all of them back." Bad Flower ignored Ocean and said, "Overcast always used to say Viva la vida was going to find him." Oceans ears dropped, "W-What does that mean?" Bad Flower looked at Ocean still crying, "Viva la vida is french for Death and all his friends." Ocean felt like something was stuck in her throat, "A-And he said this alot?" Bad Flower nodded. "When did he start saying this?" Ocean pressed. Bad Flower started to cry more, "I have no fucking clue! It's just something he started to say when he was younger to his parents and HeavyDirtySoul!" Without another word Bad Flower turned and stormed away. Ocean sighed when back to her den.

Bad Flower laid behind his and Overcast's den feeling sick to his stomach. It's not fair I should have been able to stay! I would have made sure no one took them! But no! Nimrod and the idiot Riptide got to stay! Bad Flower thought angrily before falling asleep crying. Ocean sat at the entrance to her den and looked at the clearing. She thought she saw a glimpse of Sun but when she looked again there was nothing. Ocean sighed and shivered recalling the color of Sun's eyes. I-It was like he was- Oceans thoughts broke off as she said aloud, "Possessed." as the night grew the wolves fell asleep in their den only praying for their missing pack mates.Within the middle of the night he could hear wolves walking in puddles. He sat up at the ound looking out the small cave entrance. "Mhm, what is it?" X-ray whispered. "Some one or some things out there" Stitchez whispered back. "It's probably a rabbit or Ocean checking the printer, go back to sleep." Stitchez sighed and lay back down next to X-ray. Stitchez rested his head on Xrays back watching the rain. A wolf walked in front of the den. She did not look inside but she kept walking. Stitchez got up quickly, before X-Ray could ask why Stitchez covered his snout.
