Chapter Seven: Stream

Stream ran. Rain splattered on the cold ground.  Stream looked for shelter. She saw a cave. Stream rushed into the cave. A crackling noise echoed along the cave. Stream backed away a bit. Someone or something inhabited this area. Stream decided that they could help and she went in the cave. She was warmed up by the fire.

“Who are you?” asked a voice. A wolf with a sandy pelt and deep blue eyes stared at her.” I need help, please,” Stream replied. The wolf growled at her. Then a wolf pup padded forward. “Oh look! Its the daughter of Riverius!” said the small pup. The pup had a grey pelt and green eyes. Realization struck the other wolf’s eyes, “ Oh, sorry. I thought you were an intruder, come in.”

Stream padded in the den. The sandy wolf offered her some meat. The delicious smell wafted up Stream’s snout and she ate. “I’m Sandy and this is my little sister Dove,” said the wolf who was Sandy. Stream nodded and finished her delicious meal.

“I have a question, how come your brother is a cat and you’re a wolf?” asked Sandy. Stream looked up, “My brother was adopted and we had a new mom who was a cat. She died after a few full moons”. Sandy did a quick nod. “ Did you tell her about the scary wolf?” asked the small pup called Dove. Sandy sighed, “A wolf was stalking us after we disappeared from River Tribe.” Just after she said that, a wolf which was all black and a white underbelly walked in the cave entrance.

“Hide!” hissed Sandy. She ran with Dove to the end of the cave. Stream raced after them. Sandy and Dove were hidden under some moss. Stream joined them and watched the wolf.Then the wolf was tackled and attacked by a husky. It tackled the wolf and trapped him. Other animals went in the cave. Sandy jumped out and said, “ Thank you for saving us!”

Immediately the other animals glared at her. “Kill her,” whispered a lynx. The animals tackled Sandy and bit her. Dove screamed and immediately caught the attention of the lynx. Then the wolf who was being held down tackled the lynx. “DARKEN!” hissed the lynx. The wolf who was called Darken clawed the lynx in the eye. The husky tackled Darken. Darken kicked the husky off. Stream turned away from the fight. Darken kicked some animals off and grabbed Sandy, who was injured. Then the lynx grabbed Dove and held a claw up to her throat.

“Turn yourself in, Darken,” said the lynx. Then Darken tackled the lynx. The wolf named Darken grabbed Dove. “I will say hi to your brother for you,” said Darken, talking to Stream. Darken ran with Dove. Sandy cried and ran after the wolf. Dove yelled and called for Sandy. Then Darken and Dove went out of view. Stream saw a gate. A gate to River Tribe.

Dove looked around. A war was happening. She saw a black cat with blue eyes. “ Bramble look out!” cried a voice. She saw a husky jump at this black cat called Bramble. Bramble dodged and the husky hit a rock. Then Dove felt something tighten around her neck. Dove gasped for help and saw Bramble run for her. Bramble sunk his claws on the thing on her neck. It was a snake and it wrapped itself on Bramble. Then the wolf called Darken grabbed the snake and killed it. Then she saw Stream tackle Bramble and Dove’s sight faded black.

Dove woke up. She saw Darken eating some meat and staring into a fire. “ You have been asleep for a long time,” said Darken. It was nighttime. “What do you want from me? Let me go!” yelled Dove. Darken shook his head, “ I can’t do that,”

“WHY!”

“You have a prophecy to fulfill,”
