*Author's note: This picks up the suivant morning after part 21 ended, Kate does not know it yet but she has a surprise visitor!*

Kate woke early the suivant morning, at the crack of dawn to be exact. Kate got out of lit quietly as not to wake Stormy and stretched out her legs. When she went out into the living room she could see light from the sun starting to peak over the eastern horizon. Kate jumped onto the big recliner that was overstuffed and large. Kate remembered that this was where she stayed the very first night her and Jon were together.
Kate curled up in a ball and pointed her nose down...

The suivant jour after me, Kate, and Buddy had returned to camp. Dad and I had planned a day-long excursion up to the very haut, retour au début of the Little ceinture Mountains to watch the sunset. As usual I was up early and was getting everything ready to go. Topping off dad's Yamaha Grizzly and my Kawasaki with gas, checking tire pressure of both machines, and so on.
I strapped a mid-size glacière onto the front utility rack of dad's ATV. Also a small tank of gas in case I ran out, this is a long ride, about 30 miles there and the same distance back. 60 miles round trip. Dad's ATV has a 6 gallon tank and would probably...

I had been planning it for some time but I wanted to take Kate and montrer her the legendary ice caves above Crystal Lake. This La Reine des Neiges cave stays La Reine des Neiges an round even in the hottest months of July and August when temperatures reach 90 to 100 degrees. It was about a 7 mile hike from the parking area and would take most of the jour to do, for Kate it would be easy but it is a different story for me.
"You will like this place Kate trust me," I assured her while packing supplies into the Bronco. I opened the passenger door for her.
"Get in," Kate leaped in.
I got in and before starting the Bronco I...

I had been debating whether ou not to take Kate to school with me and finally decided on bringing her with me. There was only a few weeks left and than summer would arrive signaling my freedom and my favori season. In the morning we showered together and I helped Kate wash all the places she could not reach. After that we hoped into my Bronco and went to Macdonald’s and grabbed some delicious breakfast Mcmuffins and hashbrowns.
"Now Kate I don't hardly like anyone in this school other than my 2 Friends so just don't speak to anyone, give no reason for people to tempt me. toi are so beautiful...

*author's note, if toi haven't already read part 6 first otherwise toi will be Lost here!*

"This thing is cool!" Zach exclaimed about the pocket sized squirt gun he managed to snatch from a bratty kid who had tried to squirt him with it. We were headed back to the parking lot to get Kate and Stormy and go elsewhere.
"Dude toi better not squirt me with that ou else!" I joked with him. We were now getting closer to the parking lot; I looked toward the young arbre where Kate and Stormy should have been waiting. They were not there; fear welled up inside me, any traces of humor immediately was gone....

Author's note this one picks up right where part 7 left off*

"Kate wake up sweetheart it's almost time for school!" I had been woken par the alarm clock but Kate managed to sleep through it.
"Hmm? Morning already?" Kate yawned lazily stretching out the words.
"So glad it's finally Friday woo hoo!" I exclaimed.
"We got to hussle though; it is 7 already and we still need to shower, there won't be time for breakfast."
"Okay I'm up!" Kate jumped off the lit and stretched, I quickly made it up nicely. Throwing my pajamas under my pillows and going into the bathroom, Kate on my heels. We quickly showered...

*Author's note: This entire chapter is told from Buddy's point of view to let toi know! It takes place a little while after Part 9 happened*

Several weeks had gone par since Jon had brought accueil a brown/cream-colored loup that he called "Kate". Buddy had been quite disgusted about the whole idea of it. He had lived with Jon and his father Paul for plus than 3 years now, he himself was now 7 years old.
All through those 3 years he and Jon could never come to a agreement who was superior to the other. Jon was convinced he was, of course, but Buddy had always taken to Jon's father anyway. But even...

*Author's note-this picks up right where LWK part 13 ended, only a few hours later*

"Jon! Jon, wake up!"
I could hear Kate's voice but was still not all the way awake yet. I felt her paws on my chest and she began to shake me.
"Not now Kate, we can have fun later..." I mumbled still partially in my sleep. Now I could feel her nose near my ear, I could sense her mouth opening and about to close..."Ouch!" Kate bit me on the ear! Now I was awake. I glared at her irritatedly, "what is with you?" I saw the fear in her eyes just then.
"Jon there's something out there! Something in the trees, I heard...

*author's note: the camping trip is now over, this is written to pick up the pace of my stories a bit, still the most exciting part has yet to come!*

When the camping trip ended; the Airstream unpacked at home, the usual routine resumed. Now since school was out I went to work full time at the store. For 3 days I would work a full 8 heure shift. The money was much better but I still needed plus to save for college.
I landed a job with one of dad's old Friends who was also a part time mason. A man named Tim, he like my dad was older and had a bad back too. I worked at that job for 2 days...

*Author's note: another chapter told from Buddy's point of view*

The suivant morning Buddy took off exploring. Buddy was searching for beavers. They had constructed a new dam downstream from where the old one that he had plunged into the précédant spring was. He came upon the newly constructed dam and to his surprise there was hardly any water in it; 3 beavers were sitting in the middle of it, watching him. Buddy strolled up to them, they made to run however.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to eat you!" Buddy said.
"Okay, toi better not I warn toi dammit!" One of the beavers said.
"You guys seem bummed...
