       The sun had gone down to rest as the CityPack dogs were still searching for a place they can call their own. As Coco glanced behind her, the dogs had their tails sunk and their heads low. She could tell they were tired. She turned her glance in front of her again and began searching for a safe place to spend the night. Her muzzle raised to the air, but instead of prey she smelled dogs, lots of dogs. As they pushed through the undergrowth into a clearing, dogs turned their heads facing them. There were three dogs sitting on top of a rock in front of a gigantic tree and many gathered beneath them. Coco looked up at the three recognizing Brick, standing next to two other dogs. One she didn't know at all and another dog with long, white fur. She stared up at the dog longer "Snow?" She barked. She glanced back behind her seeing Leaf trembling in fear. She followed her gaze to a dog with a silvery pelt. 

"Coco?" Snow barked "What are you doing here?" 

"We were chased out of our home in the city and--" Before she could continue the silvery dog interrupted her 

"And you come to settle in the forest" He growled "There is only suppose to be two packs in these forests" He glanced over at Snow and curled his muzzle back. "I am gonna ask you once to leave!" 

"Where are we suppose to go? We can't go back to the city" 

"Well figure that out yourself" The dog growled "I am giving you a day to get out of here" 

Coco glanced back at CityPack "Come on pack" She turned around disappearing into the undergrowth.

"Alpha" Leaf began "That was Storm, the reason why I left the forest" 

"I understand, Leaf, but where are we suppose to go? We can't go back to the city" Coco went on "Whatever happened, Leaf we will protect you and your pups" 

"But, you don't know what Storm is capable of, he will tear all you to shreds!" Leaf barked with much panic in her voice 

Coco was about to speak with Roger spoke first "Leaf, we are a pack, we will protect you and each other, no matter what" The dogs of CityPack howled and barked in agreement as they continued their journey for a new home. They were no longer CityPack, but instead ForestPack.
