The 'Alpha games' started long ago, back when the SilverRiver Pack had just begun. The original alpha had just died, and the pack was in distress. Alpha Kaden, the pack's original leader, passed away without an heir to take his place. A young woman named Veronica Samuels created the games as a way for the next generation of the pack to choose a worthy alpha and luna. Because of the fact that werewolves' first shift are caused when they meet their mate, if an alpha was chosen their mate would automatically become the luna. After World War II, the pack soon realized that females would have to battle in the 'Alpha Games' as well.
Now, in the year 2047, any wolf, above the age of 15 who has successfully shifted, must participate in the alpha games.
Rules:
1. When the current alpha, luna, or beta announce the cancellation of the games, the entire pack must heed their words. If not listened to, the wolves who dare go against their leaders judgment may be punished by death.
2. Rule 1. May also go for any 'pauses' or 'new rules' to the games.
3. A safe word must be created before the games begin. The games can be very violent and death may be the product.
4. If someone calls the safe word, they must have viable reason to. The viability will be judged by the entire pack, everyone's vote must be counted.
Viable excuses for using the safe word:
-Fear of death ~ must be during a game, if their is nothing wrong with the other contestants then the safe word user will be put in the cells for at least one week.
-Mental instability ~ the contestant that the safe word user is speaking of has some type of mental un-wellness. The "unwell" contestant will be taken into medical supervision.
-Pack emergencies
-Cheating ~ includes use of illegal substances and bribery.
5. If a death has occurred the games may be postponed so that the grieving families may take solace.
6. If one contestant's mate dies, then the living mate/contestant must be taken out of the games.
Thrown out and bashed by her own family, April Rutter was among the only wolves who couldn't shift nor held any powers. Mocked by male wolves and abused by female wolves, April believed it was in her destiny to be nothing more until someone else took charge of her destiny, Alpha Nicholas, the strongest and the cruelest leader of werewolves.
Nicholas spent his mornings strategizing plans to take over the world and he spent his evening's taking down packs, killing werewolves and alpha's from all around the world. So what happened when he made his way into Moonlight Ash pack and killed nearly everyone?
Havoc.
