Mirage and Jayna had left Cleria the day before and were now traveling to the lake. Jayna led her sad friend as they reached the lake. "Jayna...I miss her already. We've never been apart." Jayna looked at Mirage. "She deserved it. Think- she disobeyed you and let some, what did you call him...forcer? Let him take her away." Mirage nodded. "Yes. It made me so angry! Why would she do that?" Jayna smiled comfortingly. They began to drink and talk about different things.
Right about the time they were leaving, a nervous and shaking grey wolf walked toward them. Cleria. She'd returned. "Mirage! Am I glad-" Mirage stared her down. She interupted the excited young female. "You aren't welcome here." Jayna stayed by Mirage as they walked away. "Mirage! Jayna! What's wrong? I'm back! Come one...I'm sorry I just-" Mirage spoke again, "No. You left for some male. I told you it was bad. Did he breed you?" Cleria sat down. "Yes but-" she started. "See! Trouble. That's all you are now." Cleria began to tear up and Jayna looked ashamed. "Mirage, maybe I was-" Mirage turned to her friend. "What? Now because she's crying you are fine with her coming back?" Cleria was now in tears, lying on the ground near them. Mirage turned, now almost wanting to go to her. "Cleria, are you truly sorry about it? Would you do it again?" Cleria stood, breathing hard. "Mirage...I'm not sorry about doing it. I liked it. But I am sorry that I left. Yes, maybe I'd do it over again, but I would never leave for good." Mirage was proud of her for admitting herself. "Fine. Come here." They hugged for a long while. Jayna joined them.

TWO MONTHS LATER
Cleria was now beyond huge with pregnancy. For the two months after she returned, there had been many fights and tears as Mirage had slowly realized Cleria was pregnant. Cleria had finally repaired their relationship and Jayna had been there through it all. Cleria and Mirage were now back at the lake where they had accepted Cleria back. Jayna trotted behind as Cleria sprinted to the water. She was dying of thirst as she panted hard reaching the water. She guzzled it down and Mirage smiled as her sister walked back to them. "Sorry...jsut you know all of this.." Mirage smiled. "It's fine. It will be soon." Cleria looked worried. "How many do you think I'll have?" Mirage shrugged. Suddenly Cleria felt pain. "Contractions..." she muttered. Mirage led her to a small den she had dug in advance.
Jayna and Mirage waited at the edge of the den as Cleria gave birth to not one, not two, not three, but four healthy young pups. Two males and two females crawled on the dirt floor of the den to Cleria's milk source. The pups began to nurse as Mirage entered followed by a surprised and interested Jayna. Cleria seemed to know what to do. She curled around them to warm them. The two adults laid by her side and the three of them finally drifted to sleep after a long day. They curled together warming all 7 wolves.

The next morning, Cleria crawled out with the puppies resting peacefully. Cleria barked three times and let out a howl calling Josh to see his new children.

Josh came running at hearing the call. He ran into the cave and ran to Cleira

She greeted him happily and littles yelps came from her mouth with excitement. She wagged her tail. "Four. Four little pups." she said out of breath. She led him into the cave to reveal four little puppies.Mirage was waking up and when she saw the familiar face, she looked sick. Jayna opened her eyes and saw him too. At first she smiled, not recognizing him. But suddenly his face took her back. "He...but.." she stuttered. Cleria explained. "I promised him. I promised I would tell him when they were born and I want him here." Mirage nodded. Jayna looked surprised at Mirage's sudden understanding. But Cleria smiled and welcomed Josh into the cave. Jayna backed up and gave him room and she and Mirage lef the den so they could be alone with their pups.
Cleria curled around them. "Aren't they cute?" she asked. She wondered if he would like the names she picked or if he'd be mad that he didn't get to pick any. "I named them, but if you want to change one..." she started.

"Ok." she smiled. "This one is Alamo." she said pointing at the first little boy, a grey one. "The little black one is Bullet. This little girl is Cassie and the one with two different eyes is Charity." she explained to him. Charity had one yellow eye and one green. All of them were gray except for Bullet, the black one.

A wolf watched carefully from the distance, eyeing each wolf angrily. Now more innocent wolves would have to suffer at the hands of the new ruler. He growled deeply to himself as the anger bubbled inside him. He desided to announce his presence and stepped out into the sunlight.

Mirage picked up a strange scent and turned her head. She noticed a young wolf, one older than her, but still young. She shivered as she recognized the face. Though they'd never met, she'd see the things he'd done. The ones he'd controlled. Jayna spotted him and hid nearby.
Cleria spotted the male now, peering out of the dark den. "Who's that?" she asked aloud. she curled tighter around the now awake and nursing pups. Alamo climbed on top of his brother and the females laid aside each other. Mirage felt a growl form, but it didn't escape. She held it in a moment. Jayna decided to hide behind Cleria and did.

At this point Josh decided to take charge. He spoke "Who are you, and what do you want?" He took a defensive pose and stepped in front of the pups and all three females.

Cleria smiled, happy that he was defensive. Mirage sat behind him calmly, but Jayna laid down with paws over her face. Cleria hovered over all four puppies. "Sshh...it's all right." she said as the squeaks and barks settled.

He wouldn't take his stare off the new male. He growled and waited.

Denver snarled and stepped out fully. ''I am Denver. This is not a terra and pups should not be birthed here. Anyone could pass by and easily kill these pups. Especially you know who or his army of Predators.'' He snarled he rose to his full height looking down at the male. ''You are extremely foolish to bring innocent wolves into this world in it's current state.'' he bared teeth that could easily rip through any trouble maker.

"Well then where do you suggest they have been born at?" he snarled ready to attack.

''They shouldn't have.'' he snarled, glaring at the male. ''Do not try to fight me. I am not here to fight, only to advise.'' he growled. He looked back at the pups as his ears twitched. ''How old are you?'' he asked their mother.
