Shadows book 4 -Darkness arises-

Chapter 10

Riptide looked up at his long lost Brother before yelling, "SUNSHINE?!?!?" Sunshine turned to his brother and his eyes lit up, "Riptide!" Overcast shifted from one paw the other nerves to bring his eyes up from the ground to see his old best friend from pup-hood. Sunshine leaped from the stone and nuzzled Overcast, "God how long has it been?" Stitchez just stood there, his mouth agape once again. Overcast laughed slightly, "It's been years since you ran off." Riptide buried his head into his slightly older (and taller) brother's chest inhaling the long forgotten scent of his brother. Sunshine looked at Stitchez, "And you are?" Stitchez shook his head to clear it before saying, "Im Stitchez. You must be the older brother of the dimwit." Sunshine smiled slightly, "He's not always a dimwit. He just acts like that." Riptide puffed his chest out in pride. Sunshine looked at them then asked, "What's Sun been up to?" All of them looked at the ground giving Sunshine his answer, "Oh..Sorry guys I didn't know.." Overcast stood up hoping to lighten the mood, "Ocean merged the pack with River pack. That where Stitchez was the leader of. So now we have two leaders." Sunshine smiled, "I always hoped they would merge. Both packs were being idiots to split." Stitchez looked at Sunshine with the same puzzled look he gave the stone, "H-How did you know about River pack?" Sunshine looked around, "You hear things while finding the rest of a pack, duh." Riptide looked up at his older brother, "Y-You left to find the rest of a pack?" Sunshine nodded, "I'm part of Sunpack." Riptide stood up abruptly and shouted, "YOU LEFT YOUR BROTHER TO WONDER WHERE THE HELL HE WENT WRONG TO FIND A PACK YOU NEVER BELONGED IN?!?!?" Sunshine cringed, "Riptide.....I-'' Riptide turned to walk away crying as he spoke in a tear filled voice, "You should have known." Sunshine hopped on top of the sun stone, unlike the moon stone the sun stone stood not broken down. "RIPTIDE!" Riptide slowed and looked back. Sunshine closed his eyes and the stone lit up. Sunshine chest glew with a bright sun marking all of the sudden. His eyes now a bright yellow reflecting the sun. Stitchez and Overcast walked backwards nervously but Riptide walked closer. Sunshine closed his eyes again and the sun marking disappeared from his chest and the sun stone dimmed its light. Sunshine opened his eyes again; they were normal once more. He hopes down towards Riptide. "I'm sorry I left you. But I do belong in Sun pack and If I stayed any longer with you you would have gotten hurt." "What you mean, I could have gotten hurt!?" "WHAT DO YOU THINK A SUN PACK WOLF IS WORTH!" Sunshine yipped, losing his calm. "So many want me dead, they want my head hanging on a wall either I'm a trophy or a burden. Wolves rather have me dead RIPTIDE! Do you think they wouldn't find out you're my brother? don't you think they'd hurt you to whether or not you're like me!" Riptide flattened his ears. "And now that Suns gone I'M THE LAST SUN WOLF THIS WORLD WILL EVER KNOW!" "What-" Overcast butted in. "Sun was well a sun wolf. He's a direct descendant unlike me! He hid his marking by wearing a cape. I thought you all would know this if he's truly dead!" Sunshine lowered his head. "I-im sorry" he muttered relizeing he lost it. "Sunshine.."riptide neared him.

"ALRIGHT THAT'S ENOUGH!" Stitches slid in between them. "I can stand this anymore, your brothers can't you understand each other! Riptide's mad because he thought it was his fault you were gone and if he did something different you would have stayed and Sunshine's mad because he just wanted to find those like him and protect you! Just make up!!" Overcast stood back visibly confused. "Stichez,were trying to make up you don't have to taunt us with you perfect sibling relationship last i checked your sister is a crazy dragon puppet." Riptide growled. Sunshine's head popped up. "Your sister is the one causing the storms and destruction! She destroyed the moonstone. I barely got her away to keep the sun stone," Sunshine growled. Stitchez pinned his ears down letting out small growls as he backed up. Riptide and Sunshine slowly followed him growling. "BREAK IT UP!" Overcast order hopping between them. Stitchez had a sudden pain in his head. He lost his balance and fell to the ground. Stitches eyes flickered before shutting, Overcast was yelling something in a panic towards Stitchez but Stichez couldn't hear him.

Stitches awoke in a dark void,the shadowy wolf stood in front of him. "Hello Stitchez" "SCAR!" Stitchez growled wobbling to his legs. Shadow chains emerged from the dark ground beneath him pulling him back down. "WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME!" he growled. "Well I need you, you see Pipet darling is such a troubled soul she constantly fights my control. I need you to put her back into disappear. Attack her you know, insult her to her bone, something to make her hate you again!" Scar clenched his shadowy paw against his chest. Glatica weakened me by throwing me back into this void, because of Puppet- I mean Pipet I was able to go into the real realm. BUT I'M BACK IN HERE BECAUSE OF YOUR FOOLISHNESS" He yipped. "Pardon my anger." Scar continued to circle Stitchez. "Your own friend betrayed you, why stand by them?" Stitchez glared at Scar with his snout shut. "Your mouth ain't sewed up anymore talk dog" "DOG?" "Yess," Scar said in a demonic tone as he morphed into Pipet. "You know your quite the brother" "YOUR NOT MY SISTER!! GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" "got it" scar mocked as he morphed back into his shadowy form. "Pipet will like this i just gotta cut off the end" "WHa- NOO!!!" Stitches cried as he was pulled under the shadowy void ground.
