Medieval Werewolves 5

The others had managed to get outside of the pack's terrritory. "Is everyone alright?" Lancelot asked.

"We're alright" "Wait..." Ume looked around. "Where's Bolt?" "He was behind us"

"Or so we thought."

"We need to find him!" "Mark what happened in that cave?"

"We we're fighting the guy and Bolt told me to get out of there"

"He must still be fighting."

Then they all heard a loud echoing bark and the rumble of an avalanche. "What was that?!"

"Bolt's hyperbark." Ume reconised it. "He's the only person who can use it."

"We should find him" The group looked at each other then Lancelot sighed.

"He's right."

They rush and look for signs of Bolt. The camp that they were formally attacking looked like nothing more than a pile of rubble. Ume started to sniff around.

Soon they spot someone getting out of a rubble pile. They raced over thinking it was Bolt but it turned out to be the killer. Ume growled, being just as big as the other was.

He doesn't notice, he just lays down on the ground and lets out a painful wheez. "Tch." Ume huffed. "Our job is done looks like. Just leave him there. We have to find Bolt."

They start to move away while Mark stays and looks at him "Who were you talking about before, was it my dad?"

"~Cough~ Does it matter? You know.......you have her eyes......your mothers eyes. She was going to be my mate once...."

Ume growled. "Mark, stay away from him! You know what he did!"

But he was ignored by the pup "So you are my uncle" Ume rolled his eyes and went to sit next to him. "Seems that way."

" But the elders told us ~Wheeze~ my younger brother was to take the leader role, and with the took the girl I cared for"

"Traditions change."

"It was my right" The killer snapped back. "Then the royal family, they were just willing going to give the younger brother everything"

Ume growled and batted the other with his paw. "They have the right to choose you fool! Leave the normals out of your strange ideals!"

"I don't have to listen to you, thanks to your friend ~Cough~ I won't be around long to leave anyone alone"

"Then we did our job right." Lancelot glared at the former pack leader. And he glared back "At least your friend probably didn't make it either"

"I wouldn't be too sure on that." Ume told him and picked up Mark by the scruff. "Farewell,"

Lancelot nodded. "Lets go."

"Eh, I don't need to be carried around" Mark wiggled.

"You do if you're going to go back to talk to that dieing mutt." Ume growled. "Even amoung weres, murderers are frowned upon."

Mark stops wiggling "......."

The group headed out of the valley but Ume stopped and sniffed the air. "Does anyone smell that?"

The ones who could sniffed around "Yea"

"That's the same fox we met back at the castle." Ume blinked and put Mark down.

Shortly after saying that their hear a whinny of a horse and Alania's voice "Can anyone hear me? Hello??"

Ume let out a bark of greeting. "Over here!" It didn't take long before they saw her race to them upon a dark chestnut mare. "Thanks the gods I found you!"

"What's wrong?"

"It's Edwards! He's not going to hold his end of the deal, he's going to flood the valley he believes the other Werebeast live and kill them all at once!"

"What?!" Lancelot growled. "But we were just on our way back to tell him that we caught the murder.... well more or less."

Alania looks to them "I over heard him talking to someone about it, he doesn't know the excat location of where they live but he knows the valley"

"We have to stop him or warn the weres if we can"

"Right." Ume nodded.

"Well I hope one of you has a idea where they could possibly be" Rayter looked upset "We can't waste time looking either"

Ume then remembered something. "Hey Mark, that pack before didn't smell like yours did it?"

Mark thinks "No, it was faded too like someone was there but..they left" Then he looks at his blanket around his neck "Maybe if my parents are there, we could track using this"

"We have to try something," Ume said. "Since Bolt isn't with us right now..."

They all pause, then Theotin nods "Well let's give Mark's idea a try"

Ume nodded and looked at Mark. "If I may?"  He needed the scent of the blanket. Mark leans down so Ume could see the worn out blanket.

Ume sniffed at the old fabric, putting Mark's scent aside and focusing on the rest.

Two Alphas, one male and one female.

"Alright..." Ume allowed the two who couldn't keep up onto his back as he stood up. "Lets go."

"Lead the way Ume"

And they were off... to who knows where.
