Lost

Chapter 6. Papa Stop!

I woke up and saw that the man was gone.

I jumped up and looked around the room looking for mama and papa. I wouldn't care if he just got up and left but Kota, Amber, and Possy were gone as well.

I wasn't going to let him take them after everything he did to them. I growled and jumped up getting the attention of Nessie.

I looked at her, "Иди и возьми маму и папу. Я пойду вперед" (Go and get mama and papa. I'll go ahead.)

She nodded her head and ran off to go and find them. I looked around the cave looking for anything that could give her a hint where he have gone.

I then quickly dashed out of the cave and started looking in the snow for foot prints. I sighed when I caught the faint trail of foot prints. I growled and pushed myself forward trying to run faster then the falling snow. I needed to find him.

I lightly caught a scent I knew and bolted in that direction. I could hear the sound of howling behind me. My guess is that it's mama and papa gathering the pups to come and join me on this search.

Finally I found myself in a big clearing and growled as I saw the man. He was standing there in front of the three dogs yelling and hollering about something.

"Your useless. I should get rid of you all. Have you all put down."

I didn't understand what he was saying. Just standing there confused but knowing that tone never had good things come from it.

I felt my body start to moving towards him and a light growl escaped my throat. Then I saw him raise his hand.

I don't know what took over me but I bolted to Kota. I quickly through my body in front of his and growled at the man. I soon felt the feeling of something hit me.

I couldn't help but let out a same yip as the slap landed. I felt my cheek sting as it was slapped to the side. I opened my eyes and saw a white wolf standing by a tree. I blinked and it was still there. It looked like papa. But smaller. Maybe mama?

I turned to the sound of growling and saw papa on top of the man as he nipped at his neck and face.

"Папа! ПАПА СТОП! ПОЖАЛУЙСТА, ПАПА ОСТАНОВИТЬ!" (PAPA! PAPA STOP! PLEASE PAPA STOP!)

He lifted his head and looked at me before quickly jumping off of the man. The man quickly jumped up and ran to the forest. I looked up to see if that white wolf was still there but it was gone. As well as the man. They both had disappeared.

I closed my eyes and reopened them looking to see if the wolf or the man had reappeared. But nothing they were both still gone.

Not even a trace.

I looked about over at papa who was now being licked by mama who looked madder then me when one of the pups takes my slice of meat.

Soon I felt something rub against my side and looked down seeing Kota. I sighed and placed my head on his sighing.

"Мне так жаль." (I'm so sorry.)

He looked up at me and stuck his tongue out. I smiled and laughed at him and kissed his nose.

"Ты такой хороший мальчик." (You're such a good boy.)

I heard the sound of snow crunching and looked up seeing mama standing there. I smiled at her and lend into her side.

I looked over and saw papa laying down in the snow. He let out a few whimpers as he looked into the forest.

"Он в порядке, мама?" (Is he okay mama?)

She looked at me then him and then back to me.

"Лес сейчас. Мы можем поговорить там." (Forest now. We can talk there.)

I nodded and stood up as soon as mama did. After she started making her way into the forest I slowly started to fallow her into the forest. I sighed as she lead me to a little stream.

"Что тебя беспокоит в последнее время? Ты была мелким далеко." (What's been bothering you lately? You've been petty distant.)

I shrugged and looked over at the water again, "Это просто было довольно трудно с моим прошлым вступления в игру." (It's just been pretty hard with my past coming into play.)

I could tell that mama understood what I was saying. She one again let me lend against her as she watched the water with me.

The snow started to fall heavier. But we didn't worry. This forest belonged to us and we knew every tree and rock.

And if anything papa would come and find us. He hated when we stayed out late at night. I remember the first time we stayed out talking I thought he was going to kill the first thing that crossed his path.

She started to stand and I watched as she made her way to the edge of the forest.

"Давай. Становится поздно. Нам не нужно, чтобы твой отец расстраивался из-за того, что мы не могли уйти?" (Come on. It's getting late. We don't need your father getting upset about us staying out do we?"

I shook my head, "Что мы не мама. Что мы этого не делаем." (That we do not mama. That we do not.)

I quickly stood and fallowed mama back to the den where we could get some sleep. Once we got back I quickly curled up in the pile of wolves and dogs and rested my head in fur. I felt my eyes slip closed and the world drift from me.

It was snowing. But I was still warm. I felt free and I was running. I looked shorter then I remember. I looked ahead and saw the same white wolf I had seen the day before. I smiled at it and tried to catch up with it.

I looked down wondering how I was moving so fast. But instead of seeing feet I saw paws. Snow white paws were under me not brown hide boots.
