"Found another one!" A black cheetah shouted. A white vixen and a raven rushed over to their teammate's call. The vixen asked the cheetah, "What is it?" The cheetah frowned and said, "Do you have to take that crow everywhere, Diane?" The raven made an insulted scream, and Diane, the vixen, said, "Oi! FWI she's a raven, and she's my friend! Now, what's the issue!?"
The cheetah rolled his eyes and said, "There's another Normie. This one didn't get killed yet, but they're torturing him." Diane looked into a large pit and saw a small fox cub with a broken paw. She said, "Those Claudian bastards. There'll be hell to pay for this." The raven chirped in agreement, and the cheetah said, "Alright. I'll get him out because-"
Diane completely ignored her teammate and fell into the hole trying to get the cub out. She shouted, "Rune! I got stuck!" Rune, the cheetah, growled, "You need to listen to me sometimes, Diane." He leaned in and grabbed Diane by the scruff, then he slowly pulled her out of the pit. He put her down then grabbed the cub with his paw.
The raven sat on Diane's head and chirped worriedly. Diane said, "I'm fine Truffle. Just a bruise is all." Rune looked at her and shouted, "Wait, you named it!?" Diane growled and said, "It's a "she", and yes I did! Let's just go!" She picked up the fox pup and walked off. Rune followed her saying, "Ridiculous. She might as well replace Florence!"
Diane looked at Rune with fuming eyes, and in a muffled voice, she shouted, "Go jump off a bloody bridge, ya twat!" She turned around and mumbled something. Rune silently said, "Probably another insult..." The whole rest of the way back to their base, they were silent. Their captain is Bella herself. They were extremely lucky to have her as a captain.
Any Koleists would die to be under her commands, but some would go to hell and back for some of her fur, or even her saliva and blood. "Did you two have a fight again?" Bella asked. Rune lowered his head and said, "Yeah..."
Bella clicked her tongue and said, "You guys have been fighting more since Florence got sick." Diane put the cub down and said, "It's his fault for being a total jackass." Rune scoffed and looked away. Bella sighed and beckoned the cub over to her. The cub waddled to her, and Bella said, "I'm sorry about those two. They're really mean, aren't they?"
The cub nodded, and Bella said, "They need to be nice so they can smile more, right?" The cub nodded, and Bella said, "You're a really smart cub. What's your name?" The fox cub mumbled, "My name... I don't have one." Bella purred and said, "You're so cute!" The cub looked down with a smile plastered on his face.
Rune said, "Someone has to take care if him. He can't survive on his own." Bella chuckled with a mischievous look on her face. Diane said, "Uh oh... I know that laugh..." Bella said, "We get to take care of him! It'll be like a little family, yeah?" The cub looked at Bella and excitedly said, "Y-You'll take care of me?" Bella nodded and Rune said, "That's not what I meant... but you're the boss."
Diane rolled her eyes and Bella said, "By the way, Florence is much better now." Diane screeched, "Why didn't you say so!?" She immediately ran off to the room Florence was staying in for the time being. Bella said, "So... what should we name him?" Rune closed his eyes and thought for a bit. Then he said, "You should name him. You're better suited for this kind of thing."
Bella said, "Hm... how about West?" The fox cub, whose name is now West, said, "I like it!" Diane rushed back with Florence, a red fox, close behind. Florence ran up to Rune and said, "Guess who's better now?" Rune just started at him while Florence's goofy smile just grew. "It's me, ya dumb dumb! How have you been?"
Rune said, "I've been better." Florence looked at West and was immediately all over him. "You're so cute! Hey, what's your name? Mine is Florence! Oh my god I can't-" He just kept talking and talking. Rune was annoyed, but Diane didn't mind at all. Bella chuckled and said, "Now-", but then there was a huge explosion that interrupted her. A wolf burst in and shouted, "The Claudians! They're attacking!"
Rune rushed outside and saw a huge and powerful army. "Get everything ready!" Rune shouted. The wolf immediately rushed off, and Diane shouted, "I'm going to fight!" Florence said, "No! You need to take care of things here!" Before he let Diane speak, he followed Rune out the door. Bella said, "Come with me."
Diane nodded. She grabbed West and followed Bella. Soon, all of the Koleists suited for battle stood outside of a large wooden tower. Bella was in the front of the Koleist army, and in the front of the Claudian army was a group that consisted of well known and powerful forces. Blaze, the Fire Fox, Lark, the Water Wolf, and Nafario, the Mysterious Fox were on the front lines.
Though, the Koleists had their master on their side. His name was Edward, The Guardian of Light. Bella announced, "Everyone! This is for the life my son deserved! For Kole!" The Koleists repeated, "For Kole!" A wolf with long fangs and rugged fur shouted, "For the safety of the council and the world! For everyone!" The Claudians repeated, "For everyone!"
Diane shouted, "Cowards! All of you!" Bella bowed her head, and left the battlefield with Diane and West. Rune shouted, "Attack!" Then all hell broke loose.
