The scars we hide

Chapter 1

            "Watch it....You don't know what you're dealing with, I'll tear you apart.." I snapped at the familiar Human. He Laughed excitedly.''Actually,I do. Timber right? You might not remember me..Well...We've had some memories together and, I just wanted to say that...." The Man cleared his throat. "You don't look too well, You lazy, Worthless, Mutt!! You've had so many injuries..Must've been caused by me. Remember that time you thought I was dead, But I was actually planning my revenge on you, It's the exact moment that's happening right now." He placed the beverage he was holding down on the coffee table in front of him and got up on his two feet. "...Wait-M-marcus?? I thought you were dead! We killed you! You- This can't be happening!" I whined as my tail went between my hind legs and my ears pinned down. "That's correct! You did a terrible thing making sure I was dead though. Just so ya know, You'll pay for it, I'll get my revenge on you. It WILL happen." He chuckled as he walked up the stairs and locked the basement door." T-timber...Is that who I think it is...? I thought- " The smaller, timid, Innocent wolf asked. "Well, You thought Wrong. I can't believe he's alive though, I made sure he was dead..." I grumbled, Annoyed and frustrated. I hated Marcus, He caused me and Calico so many Injuries and Scary- plus horrible memories. We never got over what he did to us. I can't believe it. 'After all he's done to us, He still wants more?'I asked myself in my thoughts. I couldn't imagine what Calico is going through right now. I feel so bad. "Calico, Stop Worrying. We'll get through this. We'll get through it together. We've done it many times so I think we can manage." Calico lifted his head high, Looking over at me with a slight smile. "You're right. We're getting through this and we're doing it together. We've broken out of kennel's like these before, I think we can do it again." I nodded, Smiling proudly back. Calico was the same age as me so we had a lot in common. I knew him since I was a pup. Calico and I got through everything together. Nothing can stop us, We've been through much worse so we're going to survive this whether Marcus likes it or not. We've come so far, We're not stopping now. When my mother died, My pack said they'd be there for me and that they'd look after me..But honestly, Calico's been the only one to be here for me..And I want to do the same. "Their down here, Their beautiful wolves, Great shape. Watch your step." Marcus's Tone of voice was heard with amusement. "Their fur might be rough but you can always wash them. Besides, All the scars they have are covered up by their fur, Well most of them anyway." He chuckled as he  pushed past the curtain, A strange, Tall, Scary man following."I'm sorry but did I hear you wrong? These wolves look terrible! They have scars everywhere!" The man cried out, Not with pain but with anger. "Honestly, Their physique is incredible, I've never seen gray wolves like this." The man smiled for a minute,Staring at Calico with a slightly creepy look in his eye. "Why thank you, I'll make sure they're ready for you tomorrow. Come back at 6:30pm? They'll be ready by then." Marcus stated with delight and confidence. I growled. "We'll be gone by then, You won't see what hit you.." My tail went up from between my hind legs and my ears stood right up again as my snarl startled the strange man. "Oh yeah, I almost forgot. This Brown-Reddish Wolf is real stubborn and can be a pain in the ass sometimes. So just show her who's alpha, She'll listen." Marcus ignored me, sounding confident, Too confident which was weird, Since we beat him so many times. "If you touch a hair on her head, I'll kill you.." Calico snarled, He looked at me and smiled. Like he was saying ' He'll never hurt us.'. I smiled back as I dug my claws into the concrete flooring. "Just ignore him, He doesn't really mean it. He couldn't hurt a fly." The brown haired man stated, Smirking at the unknown man beside him. "Shall we go discuss the salary?"The Mysterious man asked, Pointing out the curtain to the table right outside. Marcus nodded, Both of them leaving the room without a word.
