With the sun rising, the tension around the pack was rising.
The invaders on the Northern border were gearing up and getting ready to take BlueMoon for themselves. While the pack began to prepare to defend their land. They began to put the women and children into bunkers. Gathering weapons and going over plans to effectively defeat the threat.
Ramone carried his daughter into a separate secluded bunker next out of their home. Throwing her down there he said, "I'm not done with you yet." Locking the bunker behind him he started rushing to be alongside his Alpha on the frontlines.

With the sun finally in the skyline, Xavier watched the insolent wolves create a barrier around the territory they wanted to protect so badly.
"What do you want with my pack?" Alpha Evans bellowed across the field, warily watching the army of creatures before him. He could smell that they weren't wolves. He could smell fairies, witches, and vampires but there were two very different scents that he could smell from across the field.
It was something dark and ancient.
Xavier stepped out of the shadows of his massive army.
Gasps filled the field from the wolves. Xavier towered over everyone standing behind, its astonished everyone that he hid so well.
Standing at his six-foot-eight stature he yelled back, "I want it to be mine."
Whispers and murmurs spread among the wolves. They began to fear the new threat trying to take their home.
Xavier smiled smelling the fear seep from their pores. He enjoyed the sense of power that he held over these people.
Alpha Evans began to look around his pack and saw that people were showing fear. He had to step up and put on a front for everyone and himself.
"That will not be possible," Alpha Evans said looking Xavier in the eye, stepping closer to the mountain in the middle of the field.
"And why is that?" Xavier said feeling rage build up inside of him. "Because this is MY pack. These are my people and I will not let you harm them." Alpha Evans yelled puffing his chest out to try and suppress his fear.
An evil smile made its way onto Xavier's features, "That's why I'll only fight you," He bellowed out walking closer to the wolf-made barrier around the territory. "We will fight to the death, only me and you. And if I win the title of Alpha, your land, and your people will be mine." He stated beginning to take off the black shirt that he wore.
"And why should I?" Alpha Evans said watching Xavier walk closer and closer to him. The dark scent oozing off of the approaching figure.
"Because if not, there will be blood on your hands," Xavier said watching the fear in the Alpha's eyes.
"Now do you accept or not?" Xavier bellowed watching the facade that Alpha Evan's had up.
Looking down at the ground Alpha Evans thought about the pros of accepting; his people will be safe but the cons were beginning to weigh down on him; he will die and his land and title will be taken from him.
He didn't want to be viewed as cowardly or weak in the eyes of his pack. He was the greatest Alpha alive he could easily take the threat down.
Looking into Xavier's eyes with newfound confidence he accepted the challenge.
Smiling darkly at the acceptance, Xavier looked over his shoulder in to signal his army to back down, and immediately they stood relaxed and content watching their king.
"Now shift," Xavier commanded the lowly Alpha in front of him.
With great confidence, Alpha Evans began to shift into his massive midnight black wolf. He believed that easily he could destroy the young threat towards his pack. But that soon became a mere figment of his imagination.
Xavier began to shift but instead of hunching over onto all fours, he remained on his two legs as his skin became a thick layer of dark fur and he began to grow two feet. His pupils dilated covering his entire eye in blackness. His claws elongated and his fangs descended from his gums.
He felt his lycan begin to take over his mind, but he pushed him aside knowing that this was his fight and his fight only.
Screams and gasps were heard from the group of wolves in front of him. Trying to reassure his pack the Alpha lunged at Xavier only to be caught halfway and thrown to the side as if he were nothing.
Getting back up Alpha Evans attempted to attack the beast in front of him again only to be met with swift dodges from his advances.
Grabbing ahold of the scruff of the Alpha's neck, Xavier brought his nails to the stomach of the Alpha and began digging his claws deep into him.
A loud howl was heard across the field, even the entire territory.
He threw the Alpha below his feet, watching him take his last few breaths. Watching the life drain from his eyes, he began to shift back into his nude shape.
The group of wolves in front of him looked amazed but equally terrified. Their worse fears had been confirmed, Lycans are back and they are very real.
Xavier took in a deep breath relishing the smell of death in the air. Smiling darkly at the wolves that stood in front of him, "Either you join me or you end up like him," he said pointing to their dead Alpha.
Immediately everyone in front of his kneeled in submission except for one. Ramone. Xavier took a step closer to the Ex-Beta and he reluctantly began to kneel with the others before but not before lowly promising to avenge his fallen Alpha.
Spreading his arms and looking to the heavens in silence, Xavier relished in the feelings of immense power that surged through him. It was like a high he couldn't get enough of.
Looking back at the group in front of him he said, "I am your new Alpha, I am Alpha Xavier Knight,"
