Jace watched as she pulled it along, He gulped feeling the Kayak rock a bit making him feel sick. Once they were at the other side he didn't wait he shifted and quickly jumped out of the Kayak, He slipped up a bit and one of his paws slipped in the water but he was quick to pull it out and get his footing. The hairs on his wolfs back standing up as he growled at the Kayak

.

Jace's wolf snorted at the Kayak and quickly returned to Zamika's side, His fur brushing against her slightly as he walked up beside her. He looked around at their new surroundings

Alice looked at Luke and shook her head "dont be sorry" there wasnt much emotion in her voice, because she was holding it all back to hide how scared and worried she was, right now it seemed like she was the only calm one around, the pups were in a panic and Luke wasn't doing much better so for her family Alice was putting away her own doubts to try be the voice of reason, while all this was going through her head she was interupted by Appollo "he's dead...?" Alice said quietly hoping it was true, she glanced back at the pups and was met with the sight of two terrified sets of eyes, Appollo's siblings were on edge and both snapped at their brother, backing away from him they didnt understand why he was so happy

Apollo seeing his siblings snap at him wimpered as they rejected his playfulness, He shifted back and sat there with his legs crossed as his clothing was only a nappy as before he'd shifted he had a blanket. He was the type of child that prefered blankets over clothing

Luke pulled back to look at her shocked before looking confused, "How..?" Was all he asked. If he wasn't able to defeat him & Aaron wasn't exactly getting there than who it would take Alpha blood to beat him. Then it came to him "Terry!" He said shocked, His sister was weak before after being stabbed then how did she do it. He needed to know if she was ok, Luke struggled trying to stand but the pain stopped him.

The New Pack Healer rushed over, "Alpha?!" She said panicked. She had a bag full of healing methods, Once she was kneeling beside him she rummaged through the bag before pulling out bandages. "Luna" she said with respect to Alice before applying some clean cloth to the large wound's to stop him bleeding out, "Are you wounded Luna?" She asked Alice.

Aaron shifted back and ran to Terry to see if she was alright, He may not have been part of the pack anymore but he still cared. Seeing she was quite weak he picked her up bridal style before running back to the pack house to get her treated (Doesn't mean anything relationship wise), He left her in the care of other lower rank Healers. Walking out of the pack house exhausted he looked down and realized his shirt was stained with her blood and he didn't exactly want to return to Marcus like this so he on the way back went through a river to wash himself off, He'd only recieved a few shallow cuts from the fight with Alarick.

Alice shook her head "no...I doubt it was Terry after those injuries" she sighed and got up, going to pick up Appollo and bring him to Luke, Lila and Ashton followed and sat to her right side as their brother was handed to his father "would you mind explaining the story through me and your father's mind link?" she asked, not wanting the others to hear any gruesome details in case he decided to reveal a little too much, Lila huffed when she heard that and looked at the ground, Ash just stared ahead in silence, he was worried, why wouldnt his mother let him hear? his sister and her temper could only focus on what she wasnt allowed to do, but failed to see the fact that something terrible must've happened for this mich information to be held back, Ash looked up at Luke and tilted his head "why can't we know?" he asked and Alice looked down at him with some concern, she was unsure how to answer

.

Marcus was pacing back and forth, whining and clawing at the ground, he was worried about Aaron, his wolf was anxious too, it wasnt stupid it understood when lives were at stake and so Marcu knew it was dangerous too, what if Aaron was badly injured and in a lot of pain? or....well it wasnt impossible, but he refused to aknowledge it as something that could have actually happened, Aaron wasnt dead, he could try the mind link to make sure "hey, is everything allright?" he asked

The Healer was quick to bandage his wounds before bowing and letting them talk, There was already guards nearby protecting the family to make sure no rouges took advantage of Luke being injured.

Luke looked over at their pups and sighed in relief seeing they were ok, He opened his mind-link as Apollo got comfy. He listened as the pup ranted on about how much Alarick's power went down when Terry played with him, He was still innocent and believed Terry killing him was playing. 'Aunty ran up to him and hugged him but her arm was inside him..' he clearly sounded confused, 'You mean she killed him pup' Luke's wolf interrupted. 'Hey!' Luke scolded his wolf

Apollo looked at his father confused, He understood what death was but he thought Aunty Terry was playing. He tried to describe more of what he saw, 'Well she ran up to bad wolf and she had a silver thing in her hand after she hugged him he fell and Aunty looked hurt there was blood from her hand and belly' He tried to explain best he could and looked to his mother to see if he'd done good.

Aaron heard him but didn't reply as he was sneaking up behind him, He'd gone on foot so it'd taken him a bit longer to get there. Once behind him he wrapped his arms around his waist and lifted him up, "Surprise" He chuckled. Most shifters were sad and disturbed after a fight but Aaron was high on the fact Alarick was dead

Alice went silent as all the information was relayed to her,she could picture it playing out in her mind clearly, the fact that Appollo didnt understand fully didnt make it difficult to conclude that the intruder had been stabbed to death by Luke's sister, she looked down at the pup and gave him a nod "thank you, that was very helpful" her voice cracked when she spoke, Alice's walls were breaking down and she shuddered slightly, blinking back tears as it all hit her, this had been one of the most horrifying experiences in her life, Ash looked at Alice and noticed her stress, he got up and motioned for his siblings that it was best to leave their parents alone for now, it looked like they had some things to work out before everything would really be okay, Lila scoffed at him but followed anyway, she had her pride to keep in tact but there was no shame in agreeing with something that was right, she looked back at Appollo hoping he would understand,they were all still really young but being wolves distress or panic was easy to pick up on, and it was radiating off Alice and it made the two upset so best to leave

.

Marcus yelped and struggled for a second, his wolf was ready to shift and attack but he realized just in time it was Aaron "Dont scare me like that!" he whined looking back at him, he looked unscathed and acted fine so Marcus was relieved "you had me worried when you didnt answer earlier"

Zamika laughed and brought the kayak up. She tied it to a tree and walked up a path she turned around, "Follow me please!" Zamika came up to a beautiful house.

Aaron grinned his wolf watching through his eyes, It was clear who'd actually planned to do that as his wolf was laughing like a maniac on the inside. He smile dropped slightly remembering the fight again, "Yeah i'm fine but Luke and his sister are hurt" He sighed. "I feel bad for Alice" He added before forcefully pulling Marcus closer, "I just want sleep and cuddles" His tone turned whiny as he tried to push the subject of the fight further away.

Apollo could feel her stress making him shift back and whine, He was more sensitive to this stuff so he was quick to follow his siblings but a part of him wanted to comfort his mother. His tail tucked as he followed, He wanted his blanket.

Luke was hurt by the fact his twin sister was in pain, He knew he was in an equal amount but she didn't deserve it after the years of pain she'd endured. Luke's wolf growled wanting to tear apart Alarick's dead body limb by limb hoping his death was slow and painful, He blocked the mind-link so they didn't have to hear his wolfs sick thoughts. Luke looked back up at Alice the urge to comfort her taking over, "Everything's going to be alright he's gone now" He said in a soothing tone before taking one of her hands and intertwining their fingers.

Terry growled at the Healers as they tried to stitch her stomach back together, They had to hold her down as she kept trying to swipe at them wanting to deal with it on her own. In the end they had to give her a strong sedative to at least make her drowsy

Jace listened and followed, He looked at the house ahead before shifting back and walking beside her. "This it?" He asked before looking back at the nice home, His wolf getting a look through his eyes.

Zamika nodded. She pulled out her keys and opened it, the grey walls were lined with few pictures, just Zamika's only nice looking photo's. Which ofcourse were taken in the barn. She wore a white dress that opened up to her knees, so you could see her golden shoes that went up to her kness... Painful to get off.

Marus looked back at Aaron "Alice? their Luna right?" he asked, he could understand why Aaron felt bad for her, it must be stressful to have your entire family put in danger like that, especially since from Aarons description of Luke it sounded like he could have died "well then, lucky you showed up right?" he looked over him again and sighed "Im glad you got out safely" the idea of sleep didnt seem so bad, he closed his eyes and nodded "yeah okay" Marcus agreed and relaxed into his arms, he was tired out from worrying so much.

Lila glanced at her brothers and tilted her head,Appollo looked upset all of a sudden and Ash was just quiet again, staring off into the distance,she tried to get closer but he just shifted and paced further away,Lila huffed and sat down closer to Appollo,turning herself into her wolf and nudging him, trying to help or lift his mood a little

Ash laid down further away from his siblings, he was worn out and needed to let his adrenaline calm down before he could sleep.

Alice looked at their hands and then at Luke, leaning against him to try calm herself "what did he want? Why was he after us and why didnt you tell me?" she was hoping that learning more about this would help her break it down and process it,her tone was shaky and made it obvious she was unsettled but her breathing had become more regular at least and she was no longer shuddering
