sadly as Sheeta tried to get her dead parents to get up again. However, they didn't.I couldn't watch her for long, so I looked around. Funny, her siblings had been here too. But nothing of the two was to be seen. Something was stirring somewhere, but where? I looked around searching. Where then where. Then I found the source. The ground moved behind me. And then a brown muzzle with a white line appeared. Pazuo !! I jumped up and helped him. Now it turned out that the ground wasn't moving but that it was buried under a dead wolf. I carefully pushed the body away and helped the little one out. His brother lay beneath him. He was dead. Apparently his throat had been bitten through and Pazuo had got him to safety or at least tried to. Now it occurred to Sheeta that at least her brother was still alive. The two fell into each other's arms. I watched them both sadly. The war had claimed its victims. For each of us. When the two had seen enough I grabbed them and went back to the others.The two came creeping up with drooping heads. Now they were wise and knew what it was like to lose someone. I turned both of them and weeping bitterly. I transformed myself too and took them both in my arms. Just made her cry. After a while I said: "Well, you two come now, it's fine again. You still have each other. Mourning is okay, but we have to go on." The two looked at me sadly. Then Sheeta wiped the tears from her eyes and turned into a wolf. Her brother looked puzzled for a moment, then did the same. I transformed too and looked at the boys. Then I pointed in the direction of the mountains and started walking. The little ones stayed with me, each on one side. Slowly the whole group started to move and I could roughly estimate how much we fell. Except for our pack, none of them got away without losses. Of once a hundred and fifty animals, about a hundred were still alive. The snow around it was colored red.The snow we walked over also turned red with blood. Many of us were slightly or seriously injured, but I was sure if we made it to these mountains then we would all be saved because that is where paradise lay. So we started and arrived five hours later at the foot of a mountain that had to be about the height of Mount Fuji.

It would be best if we camped here first and looked for a way tomorrow. Everyone was tired. First the injured were taken care of and then everyone settled down to at least doze off. An attack would certainly not come today, so we all relaxed and. However, none of this left me alone. Besides, I didn't want to go to sleep because of late nightmares plagued me. So I also let Cheza treat me and then wanted to look for an entrance or something similar. I just started walking because there was a slight whimper from behind. I turned around and saw Sheeta. She stood there lonely and abandoned. After a long time Pazuo had curled up between Toboe, Tsume and Kiba.She probably didn't want to stay with the boys, but rather accompany me. Hopefully she didn't see anything like a mother in me now. Because I wasn't really that good at things like that. I thought for a moment. Well then she should come with me. After all, I was just exploring and not hunting. So we rummaged around at the foot of the mountain. When there was nothing to be found there, we climbed a little bit.

We didn't find anything for a while until Sheeta tumbled into a cave with a whiff. As I followed her, I saw that the entrance, which was about twice as high and twice as wide as me, led down steeply. Sheeta was nowhere to be seen. However, I heard Sheeta whimper in fear. So I slid down. At first it was pitch black, then my eyes got used to the darkness and I could see everything.

Sheeta seemed to have crashed into a wall as she lay unconscious on the floor. I hurried to her, worried.However, it didn't seem to have happened anymore because she had no external injuries. So I took it by the neck fur and carried it around in my mouth. Suddenly the call was there again. I looked around searching. In the cave it was much more difficult to identify the origin. Then I finally found the origin and followed it. Until I almost ran into a stone wall that had appeared out of nowhere. The wall was weird. Something was engraved on it. I carefully put the still unconscious Sheeta down and looked at it closer. I had to stand on my hind paws to even see it come. I wasn't wrong. Or at least partially. There was really something in the wall, but it wasn't engraved, it was a real imprint like you leave in the mud. Two pieces. One was a human imprint, or at least it looked like it. Next to it, a little deeper, however, was the imprint of a dog or even that of a wolf. However, I assumed that it was a wolf paw because after all I was a wolf and the reputation had brought me here.Also, my paw fit exactly when I put it in the print. Only now did I notice that something was really scratched on the wall next to it. It said: Wolf and flower have to fill the gaps in order to open the gate to paradise. Together with all of their races, they will enter Paradise. So that's how it was. That was the last test. If paradise was already so close, the others would certainly not hold it against me if I woke them up. So I grabbed Sheeta and ran back to the others, but not too fast so as not to hurt her. Hopefully I found my way back here. And if not so branched out what the whole thing here isn't.

When I had tumbled down the cave passage down the Sheeta with difficulty, I ran up again to my people. They were all asleep, but after I nudged them, they were suddenly wide awake. I put Sheeta next to her brother. Slowly I suspected that she had slipped from fainting to sleep.Then I transformed myself and said with a broad grin, "People, I've found paradise. By now everyone was wide awake at the latest. I said cheekily:" Are we going now or later? "Of course we should all get going right away. But how do you drum up a hundred sleeping wolves? The best way is with howling. And so we agreed a four-part howl to which Pazuos and Sheeta's gentle voices soon came in. The two of them had just as little idea as I did back then when I first thought of Hige's howling, but they just howled. But not only the two howled with us, but soon all the wolves that were awake. And when everyone was awake about a hundred animals howled. It was sure to be heard from afar But that didn't bother either of us.

And then we went off. The two pups ran next to me again. When it was time to get through the cave passage I gave Pazuo to Kiba and carried Sheeta by the neck fur again. Pazuo actually wanted to stay with me but I didn't let a puppy run down again alone.In the end something really happened again. Carefully we went down one by one. Downstairs they were allowed to walk puppies again, which both pleased. But even if they were allowed to, they didn't leave my side. I found the wall with the imprints astonishingly white right away. Cheza scanned the text on the wall and immediately understood what was going on. I stood on my hind paws again and put one paw in the recess. Cheza put a hand in it too. Suddenly the wall disappeared. It wasn't pushing away or anything, it just vanished into thin air. Cheza almost fell over, but was able to keep her balance. I just fell on my front paws. But what we saw there made us open our mouths and mouths.

Ahead of us was a place that was rightly called paradise. Although there was snow everywhere, in summer the part we stood in front of was surely overgrown with grass. The sun was just rising blood red over the distant mountain peaks.The snow only glittered so that one was almost blinded. It worked much more than in the world we came from and seemed to invite you to wallow in it. Pazuo and Sheeta next to me were softly fibbing and trembling expectantly as if they were waiting for permission to storm away from me. I couldn't wait either. I looked at Cheza for questions. Should we be the first step? Leave everything behind and finally end our long journey? She smiled and nodded. Then we both took the first steps into a new world. But we were not at the top for long because just as they had the feeling that they were allowed, the puppies stormed past us and rolled around in the snow.

Now the adult wolves stormed past us, and for a moment I was afraid that they would trample the little ones together. They feared that too because they were soon back with me and looked at me questioningly. I twisted my lips in a smile. The two were just cute.Suddenly my whole pack and also Blue, who as an old friend as well as part of the pack, was gathered around me, the two puppies and Cheza. Well, almost all of my pack. For a moment I looked back sadly. Oh, how I would have loved to have stood here with Hige now.

Now everyone was past us and we looked around too. The open plain soon turned into a deep forest. It seemed to be brimming with life and game that I heard countless pairs of hoofs. On the other side were small hills and from afar you can see mountains. After some searching we found a cave in which we all had space. There we settled down to get another sleep. We all urgently needed it, but most of all, Sheeta and Pazuo needed it. The two curled up, snuggled up against me and each other, and fell asleep immediately. I watched the sun rise for a while and then fell asleep too.

Oh yes, I just wanted to say that the ff is not over yet, and that it goes on a bit.Okay then bye
