"This is madness!" One loup thought as he ran through the dust. He heard screams all around him but couldn't see where they came from through the dust. As he ran through the dust he was looking for someone from his team, then, another loup came from behind and tackled him to the ground They both began to wrestle each other until the attacker pinned the loup with great strength. The loup then bit his attacker's leg and held it until he could balançoire, swing the attacker around and slam him against a rock, then pouncing and driving his shoulder into the attacking wolf. He then grabbed the attacker's neck and slammed him into the ground and didn't let go until the attacker stopped his struggle.

When he was sure the attacking loup had left this world he advanced into the dust of the war. His breath became heavy as he sprinted further and further into the unknown. As he continued vers l'avant, vers l’avant he noticed a familiar figure speed past him causing him to stop in his tracks.

"DAD!" The loup yelled making the figure stop and return to the wolf.

"Come on we have to go!"

"But what about the fight?!"

"Your mother and Garth has ordered everyone to retreat now!"

"But if we retreat we'll lose the valley!"

"And if we stay we'll lose plus then just the valley! Now stop arguing with me and come on!"

The loup finally gave in to his father's demand and followed close behind as they ran. The dust began to clear as they ran away from the fight. As they ran, the loup saw others from his side of the fight run out of the dust and follow in his father's direction. All ran into the forest for a couple miles until they stopped to rest and wait for others.

"Where's mom?" The young loup managed to gasp our between breathes.

"She a dit she'll meet us at the last rally point. About ten miles from here."

"Are we really losing that badly that we've Lost all other rally points?" The loup asked his father with a concerned look on his face.

"I guess so son." His father looked away from him as he a dit this and faced towards the valley, "I guess so."

"So that's it then? We just run now?" The loup yelled as his rage began to boil over and causing the other loups around them to stare. "We just let them take everything that we had ever known and loved and run?!"

"I don't know."

"What do toi mean toi don't know!?"

"I MEAN I DON'T KNOW SON!" The father whipped around and looked his son dead in the eyes and yelled. "If I knew I would tell you, but for right now I don't! NOW SHUTUP toi IGNORANT CHILD!"

The young loup growled at his father until he head a familiar voice yell at them.

"HUMPHREY! ANDERS! BOTH OF toi STOP!"

Both Humphrey and Anders looked toward the one who had yelled to find it was Kate.
