Kan. I'm going to Hota, the old man."
"Why?"
"Because you and I are not like stelle Kan, who thinks there is no danger just because you cannot hear, see or smell it. I will ask the old man what the wandering birds tell and what the news from the north means It is better to know what to expect than to turn a blind eye to it. But maybe I'll come back and say that only a few birds were chatting nonsense. "
"Don't go up the mountain!" called Rusty. He cocked his head up and made soft chirping noises. "Don't do it, sister four-legged friend! Bears don't like wolves.Hota may even be in a bad mood and angry when you come! "
"Don't be upset, Rusty! Wasn't it a bear that took the firstborn into its cave and warmed it? Why shouldn't one of us wolves be friendly again? When we're up in the rocky country, Rsusty, fly to Blacky and tell him." that we come to Hota the old man in peace. "
"Blacky?" said Rusty and spread his tail feathers. "I'll do whatever you want, Sister Vierbein. If you think you have to go to Felsland, well, I'll lead you. But Blacky and I are not exactly friends. Well, when I was up, I got him given a few names, you already know how to do it, but he didn't like it at all. "
Ashi caressed the eagle with her snout. "If he's as wise as they say he won't hold it against you, Rusty."
“Let's hope he's wise enough.” Rusty shrieked and flew up into the trees. "Let's get it over with! Come on! Follow me!"Zari Kan rubbed his nose against adhi's fur. "Ashi," he said. "I go with you."
"No, Zari Kan! One of us has to stay here. And Ooki and Ken too. Without her saying it, he understood what she wanted to say to him: If I don't come back, you need good and experienced friends to do that Protect pack.
Ooki rocked and nudged Ken invitingly. "Ashi" said Ken. "Ooki and I, we think that what you're doing is right. But why do you want to go alone? Take Kiba with you! That would make us feel more comfortable, Ooki and me."
A screeching laugh came from the treetops. "Take him with you, Sister Vierbein!" called Rusty. "He had a lot of understanding in his head and had quick legs! He also brought us here! Don't forget that!"
"Yes, Kiba, go with Ashi!" ordered Zari Kan.
Kiba yelped for friends, he couldn't help it. A tingling sensation ran through his fur. He was allowed to go up the mountain, to Hote, the mysterious bear. Involuntarily his body tightened, his tail stood up.While Rusty was circling over the wolves ready to take off, Ashi leaned over the puppies and licked their soft, woolly fur. Tsume licked her face. Toboê snuggled up to Blue, squeaking softly. the eyes of the old and young she-wolf met. I'm entrusting them to you, Ashi seemed to be saying.
Cloe pulled the leftzen up mockingly.
Rusty flew up and flew forward through the treetops. Ashi and Kiba followed him.
Before they reached the edge of the forest, Kiba turned his head and looked back at Hige and Blue. I wish you could come with me, said his eyes.
Then e ran after Ashi.
The she-wolf and the young wolf took in the shadows of the forest.
