"There was a wolf nearby but he is gone now." Steele lied hoping to fool the dog. "If you hurry, you might be able to catch him!"

"Thanks," Hunter said before he lets out a bark and him and his master try to look for so called wolf followed by two more jingles of chain collars.

Steele remained by the door for a moment before walking back to Ice. "We should be okay for now. Although, we might have to move soon."

"Right," Ice said and then sighed sadly. "Well we found one of Silver's pups. By the sound of the jingle Id say he is now like my father was. How am I going to explain this to Thorn and Silver?" Ice said as she stood up and stretched.

Steele simply shrugged his shoulders. Right now, he just wanted to get Ice somewhere safe. "Ready to go?" He questioned unsure of where to go next. Leading her out of town is possibly for the best.

Steele moves to the door and carefully opens it. He glances around a few times before leaving the boiler room. Steele waited outside for Ice to come out before continuing.

Ice followed after Steele and sniffed The air and whimpered a bit. "All three pups are like my father now." She announced as she felt tears as she followed after Steele. "I honestly have no idea how I am ever going to tell Silver and Thorn." She confessed sadly as she walked along.

Steele paused for a few moments before speaking up. "If you want, I could give them the news." He said. He could be pretty blunt about the whole thing.

"Are you sure? Because Thorn will probably be upset but Silver on the other paw," Ice asked and said and stopped before lowering her head as she walked. "Silver is going to be devastated when you tell her." Ice added before sighing again. "After the hunters attacked them and stole the pups my brother had begged any nearby packs for their best trackers to help search for the pups. The trackers couldn't find them so they gave up. After that Silver began to change. She stopped eating, wouldn't leave the den, and wouldn't talk to anyone except me and Thorn. Ever since she changed I've been going over to their den every week or so to help her eat and stuff I would give her hope that their pups managed to escape the hunters." Ice explained as she started to walk beside him. "Her heart will be shattered and very shattered this was Silver's and Thorn's first litter." Ice added before sighing again. "I will come with you and tell them myself it is better if I tell them instead of you because Silver could possibly mistake you as one of the dogs the hunters who stole the pups had with them and she will probably lash out at you so I can tell them." Ice said as she took the lead to Thorn, and Silver's den.

"All right." Steele replied as he allowed Ice to lead the way. He didn't have any crass or rude remarks. This was a pretty serious matter and saying anything might make things worse. "Least the coast is clear."

"Yeah," Ice said as she walked past the mounds and ducked under bushes but when she looked at the hunters house and whined as she saw three wolfs with chain collars sniffing around. One was Hunter who had thorn's fur color the other two had Silver's fur color. "They've grown," Ice said as she stopped and watched them. "Hunter was born first followed by Sky the female standing by him, and finally Rose the youngest. Rose was named in honor of our mom." Ice explained before she continued to move through the bushes.

Steele kept his gaze on them for a minute longer before following after Ice. He still wondered why a human would use wolves instead of regular dogs.

Ice stopped suddenly and sniffed the air and her eyes turned into slits. "I smell blood mixed into Silver and Thorn's scent." Ice said but whispered a no before she took off in a run. 'Please Aniu please let it just be my imagination please.' Ice thought to herself as she ran but stopped when she got to the den and she felt tears streaming down her face when she saw the scene.

Steele raced after Ice and soon stands next to her. He takes a deep breath and presses his body against Ice. There was a lot of blood.

The blood was on the ground as well as on some of the trees. The nest was destroyed. Neither Thorn or Silver's body was laying around but Ice already knew where their bodies are. She placed her head onto steal as she lets the tears flow.

Steele remained still as Ice grieved. He turned his head to lick her a few times.

"They were the only family I had left." Ice whimpered out as more tears fell from her face.

"I'm sorry." Steele sits down on his haunches to get more comfortable. He remained quiet for a few minutes before speaking again. "If it helps, I don't really have any family either."

Ice said nothing and sighed before speaking again. "We should probably get going. Star's pack will have probably smelled the blood as well. They should be here soon to claim the area as part of their territory." Ice then stood up and started to pad away from the clearing back to her den.

Steele followed right beside her. Last thing he wanted was to run into those wolves and get blamed for everything.

Ice sighed as she curled up in her nest and sighed sadly. "Now I'm starting to understand what Balto went through. Being alone having no family to see." Ice confessed.

"Least you are still alive and you have me." Steele replied using his nose to press into her. "I don't exactly have any family either."

"I know that i should be happy about being alive, but the guilt is eating me alive inside of how I am the only one in my family that is alive now." Ice said with a sad sigh.

"Let me explain it to you in a simpler fashion." Ice said before she used her claws to cave out a sled dog team. "Sled dogs would all be together in a pack talking with each other and stuff and that same thing applies to us wolves just in a different maner." Ice started to explain before she clawed out a pack of wolves. "To us a pack is more then just friends it also involves family as well. Every pack has always begun with a male and female wolf wanting to make their own pack. As the pack grows of family members and friends zome members will branch off to make their own pack. Family is one of the most important things to us. We would die to protect our loved ones." Ice finished explaining as she finished carving out the pack of wolves.

Steele listened and slowly nodded his head. Packs were basically family where everyone had a deep bond with each other. He had never experienced anything like that before. He pinned his ears back realizing he never really had a family or even friends.

"This was the last lesson I had told the pups about before they were taken." Ice said with a sad sigh. Before she shifted in her nest.
