Chapter 3 - The Imposter Among Them

Yuko's POV

I've been with them for I think a month now. It's nice, sure. But they don't even know why I was a lone wolf. Hell, they didn't even ask. Orion just welcomed me into the pack, as if I were born here. Even the alpha was welcoming. You definitely don't see that everyday. But hey, I'm not complaining. This lone wolf gag is hard to keep up. I almost mentioned my friend Flame once. Only once. I sounded so suspicious but the oblivious bastards didn't catch on.

I am in a vigilante pack. Zalise. I heard from our leader Nallis that there was a corrupted pack, Breaker Pack I believe. I was sent out to destroy the alpha to restore temporary peace throughout the land here. Either kill or demote, Nallis said to me 2 months ago. Ugh with this sweet atmosphere with this pack, its disgusting. Oh how I miss my dear leader. Nallis' sentence finished in my head. "...we don't need another Lain." I shivered. Lain... my old alpha. But he wasn't just my alpha, he was my best friend too. He was so kind-hearted and sweet, then he slowly turned into a full blown psychopath. I tried to get him to talk to me, but he just ignored me every time. Eventually he...just forget it.

~hours later~

Alright. Everyone should be asleep now. I think it's atleast midnight. I had to report back to Nallis tonight about the info I gathered on Breaker Pack. The moon pack is very reliable on information, I can give them that. Now I know the rival pack is indeed Breaker pack, so I can just go back there. I think they have four guards out tonight, so I have to go through a blind spot. Northwest side I think is best. I was almost through to northwest when I heard a yawn and some muffled talking.

'I...new..'

'Yeah I...'

'okay..'

Shit! That's Orion! He'll beat my ass! Oh shit! Oh shit! Oh shit!

"Yuko...?"

I turned around to a groggy Orion.

"...Hey! Orion..."

"What are you out doing this late?" He yawned.

"Oh I uh..couldn't sleep."

"So you come all the way to the northwest side? You're den is in the southeast side." I could tell he was getting suspicious.

"Oh uh yeah. I just needed a walk."

"Alright..just stay inside the borders please Yuko."

"Yep! I will!"

"Goodnight Yuko."

"Hehe. Night Orion."

When he went back into his den, I sighed in relief. Thank Anubis. I continued my way through the border.

Oh wonderful. Halo is here. Life loves me. "Yuko. You are not allowed here this late." Oh no. I'm not getting out of this one. "Sorry 'bout this." I donkey kicked the rotten tree next to us. The shaky rotten tree snapped and fell over. The tree itself didn't fall on her, a large branch did. The branch fell on her head, knocking her out. When she was on the ground, I checked her heartbeat and she was still alive. I didn't have alot of time before someone came outside because of the noise, so I ran.

I knew Zalise was atleast 12 miles away from that forest, so I had a ton of running to do.

A sudden realization dawned on me.

I might never see Dakota again. I counted her as my own.
