Running, running, running

Chapter 4

Chapter 4

After this announcement I am meet with shocked faces. No one knew what to say to that. Me and the pups just stood their letting them process this information, finally Ryan looks at us, "What do you mean you guys ran away?"

"Just what I said, we ran away from our pack. We ran away two days ago and with your permission we will continue running trough you territory until we reach somewhere where I feel we will be safe."

They all looked at me like I was crazy. They couldn't believe anyone would leave their pack with five pups in tow.

"Well now you are in Dark Shadow territory one of the most feared packs in North America. You are more than welcome to join our pack, no one would dare mess with you here." James sounded so proud as he told me that. I guess I would be proud too if I was I second in command to one of the most feared packs.

"We will stay for now, we will see how we like it and then we will tell you our decision." That seemed to pacify them as they all visibly relaxed. Well we should head to the pack house then and introduce you to the rest of the pack. "Before we do that can you tell me what state we are in?" They all look at me strangely "where in Minnesota, near the town Pierre" Ryan told me. Damn my gifts must be getting stronger if it only took me a day to get here. "Okay now we can go to the pack house" I tell them. As I say this I shift back into my wolf so that I don't have to walk to the pack house naked.

As we walk to the pack house I'm mind talking to my siblings, "as long as we are here we won't lie to them but we also won't volunteer anymore information than we need to. Until I learn if we can trust them we will keep our gifts to ourselves just like at home. If they ask any questions that you know you should answer redirect them to me if you can't change the subject. Until I know that they won't do anything they shouldn't you guys will be sticking close to me." As I finish they all nod their head, while the pack looks at us strangely. Not understanding what had just happened, not knowing that we were special, that we were gifted wolves.

As we got closer to their pack house the little ones got closer and closer to me. Brandon and Sissy even went as far as jumping into my arms and hiding there faces in my hair. Michael and Manuel hide behind Jackson who hides behind me. If it hadn't been happening to me I might have laughed at how absurd we looked. Me holding two children, and a line of the other three hiding behind each other, who in turn are hiding behind me.

As we got to the pack house I was happy to see that they had children, tons of children running around just being children. I wasn't as worried now as I could see that they had some children of their own and wouldn't try and take mine away from me. As we walked to the pack house people stopped and stared at us. To me that was nothing new, back home I was always stared at no matter where I went or what I did, but to the little ones it was new. And I could tell they didn't like it.

"Its okay guys, as long as we stick together nothing will happen to us. We will be fine; we have each other and our gifts. Don't forget about them." Remembering that they relaxed a bit but not much, they where still nervous, even more so with all the people showing so much interest in them.

"This is our pack house, we have over 315 pack member staying in or around our main house. Our members range anywhere from senior members to the pups you see running around" Cecile tells us. We are suitably impressed our old pack only had 62 members including us, so now I guess they only had 56 members left. Boy are they not going to be happy about that.
