Arctic couldn't bring herself to respond or look at her leader. She knew from Luna's anger that she was in deep trouble. Anything Arctic could do to get herself out of this may only put Tulip in danger. *Could I escape with her? No, she's still out. Besides, the pack could easily find us. And I can't leave River.* She thought to herself. She knew she'd have to tell the truth. To be honest, even Arctic didn't know the full story. She just knew the wolves knew eachother.

Night

He stalked out hoping to find his old stash of food. He left it a week ago just for this ocassion. He was starving and needed food. His unusal eyes scanned around before digging into the soft dirt. He ended up finding nothing. "welp i guess its time to steal from that werid pack i heard about." he muttered not happy. He heard barking and smelled some rouges like him. He walked the way then hid when he smelled a wolf heading his way.

Alligator

He shook his head and started to stalk some prey he found. It was a fawn and her mother. He wondered if he could get close enough to freeze the fawn or to just tackled it. He used his camo to hide and get closer. The mother looked up not seeing him so she went back to eating. Once he got close enough he tackled the fawn. It make a scared noise and tried to get away. The mother fled not wanting to chance more wolves. He held on untill the fawn went down. He smiled and started to drag the fawn back to the dens.

Bandit watched as the two wolves communicated and finally told the loners to leave. He watched as both of them threatened to kill him. Bandit began to growl flattening his ears, rage in his eyes, he had a flashback to when he was just a teenager. "I will not leave Tulip!" He snarled baring his teeth. He stood up walking to the other side of Tulip, he kept snarling staring with anger at the two wolves.

Sabre smiled when Sky put the tip of her tail under his muzzle. He began to follow her a few steps away. "Oh ok," he replied back to Sky. Sabre lowered his neck down and submerged his nose under the water, activating his power so he could breathe. Bubbles started to come up as he breathed in and out. A few seconds later he listened his head and shook his muzzle spreading water flying. "That helps but not much, eh I can deal with the rest of the dust."He uttered.

Tulip had heard her Luna and shot up but ened up falling in the process. She tried to strighten her self but she was still weak. She thought Damn it why now of all times. She looked around and said "Im sorry Alpha about all of this and Bandit not now please." She looked at him.

Voltage had come back at the time Luna came and he thought She is pretty. I wonder if wait what am i thinking!? Voltage said "Bandit don't make this worse than it is." Voltage would fight if need but didn't want to.

Bandit looked at Tulip and then at Voltage, he put his ears back in sadness knowing he could not win this battle. Bandit lowered his head in submission and slowly walked toward Voltage. "Let's go." he grimly said before looking back at Tulip. Bandit started walking away his head lowered showing no signs of emotions.

Arctic was relieved that Bandit was leaving. She didn't need more risk of blood shed. She was relived when Tulip was able to respond. Arctic tried to think. *What can I say that won't make Luna more mad?* She wondered. Obviously she had to tell the truth at camp, but what about now. *Tulip, I'm sorry if my involvement makes things worse for you.* Arctic thought.

Luna let out one of the most vicious snarls she ever had before as she leaped at Bandit. "Get away from my pack member before I rip your throat out" she snapped, her teeth very close to his throat. She wasnt as big as the male, but she did have powers and Chinook right there. "Tulip! You ungrateful traitorous mutt! Get to camp NOW!" She snapped her teeth near Tulip's haunches as she growled.

Bandit heard the pure white female wolf snap at Tulip and then snarl at him as he was only a few feet away still. *This is all my fault* Bandit thought as he looked away and started charging away from the scene, leaving Voltage behind, in anger and sadness. He ran to a small clearing far away from the alpha...and Tulip. Bandit sat down and looked up at the sky, he stared at the clouds. He started to howl in despair, but he cut himself off and just dropped down forcefully and laid his head in the dirt and dust. Bandit rarely showed sad emotions, but yet again he was never in love with such a beautiful wolf.

Arctic shuddered. Luna was ready and more than willing to kill this rouge. She was glad though that he had the sense to leave. She could hear his mournful howl far in the distance. *Why couldn't things be different?* She thought to herself. Why did things have to be so cruel?
