Kyle's POV

It was a sunny 日 with not many clouds in the sky. Kate and I had woken up early to continue the 検索 for Humphrey and Lilly. We had caught some squirrels for a snack while we walked. Kate had a depressed face when we had left the den.

"Kate, what's the matter?" I asked curiously

She then began to cry. "That デン we stayed in... It was where me and Humphrey stayed one night when we were coming back from Idaho..." Kate replied tears running down her face.

"Oh I'm so sorry I didn't know." Kyle replied

Kyle went up to Kate and gave her a big hug. He stayed there until Kate stopped crying. She felt so badly about cheating on him that she cried for over an 時 on my shoulder. She finally stopped which was a relief because my shoulder was cramping from staying in the same place.

"Are あなた feeling any better my sweetie." I 発言しました キス her on the lips.

Kate's 毛皮 was soaked with her tears. "I-I think s-s-so..." she replied with a sad look.

"Hey, cheer up, we are going to find Humphrey and Lilly then あなた can go back to Humphrey." I 発言しました trying to calm her down

"Are あなた kidding me? Humphrey would never want me back after what he saw あなた and me doing. He's heartbroken. I just don't know if Lilly will come back I mean Lilly and Humphrey do so much together. I don't know if Lilly will come home..." she replied tears welling up in her eyes

"Kate please don't cry. I don't think Humphrey would like to see あなた cry. あなた may have broken his ハート, 心 but あなた could still be フレンズ with him." Kyle replied trying to make sure Kate wouldn't cry.

"I don't think Humphrey even wants to be フレンズ with me. I mean if I can convince Lilly to come back then he might as well come back." Kate 発言しました trying not to cry

"Well we can only hope that Lilly will come back. I mean would あなた expect Humphrey just to leave his best friend?" Kyle asked

This had made Kate a little もっと見る hopeful. "Well no I mean I guess you're right. Humphrey would never abandon his friends. If one was to go on a journey and asked him to come along he would go. He's one of the best omega's in the pack." Kate replied feeling もっと見る confident

"Okay so don't worry then. If we get Lilly back then he will come back with her." Kyle said

"Your right Kyle, he will come back. He can't stay on his own for the whole way. Thank あなた Kyle. That really helps me feel もっと見る confident." Kate replied キス Kyle on the lips

"Your welcome, just please stay happy the whole way. We will find them and bring them home." Kyle replied

"Well we should keep moving if we are to find them." Kate suggested

"Okay, let's go." Kyle replied

They began walking through the woods trying to finding to find a scent that could lead us to them. We were getting hungry and thirsty so we began to 検索 for 食 and water. We found a caribou and took it down easily but finding water was hard. After we ate the caribou it was mid 日 によって now so we kept walking. Although, we were traveling we had hit an obstacle on our way. It was a long dropping cavern with, what we could see was spikes at the bottom.

"Great, now what do we do?" Kate complained

"Let see here..." I thought deeply

I turned my head to my left and saw that a 木, ツリー had fallen down and was 芝居 like a bridge. "We could use that to get across." I 発言しました as I pointed to the fallen tree

"I guess that could work." Kate replied

We walked over to the 木, ツリー and was worried of one thing. We looked closer at it and it was still wet from the rain 2 days ago. We both looked at each other worried because the 木, ツリー would be slippery to walk across.

"Are あなた sure there isn't any other way around this?" Kate asked worried

"Well are あなた willing to go the other way to find another way? または take this way, get across and find Humphrey and Lilly faster?"I 発言しました convincingly

Kate thought for a 秒 thinking of what to do. (If we take this way we could find Humphrey and Lilly faster. If we walk the other way along the cavern, then it will take longer. We have only got 4 days left.) Kate thought to herself

"Okay let's do this." Kate answered

"I'll go first." I said

I started to walk onto the 木, ツリー very slowly. I didn't want to fall off so I tried clamping my claws into the wood with each step. As I got half way my foot had slipped and I landed on my belly. I clamped my legs around the 木, ツリー so I didn't roll off.

"Are あなた alright!" Kate yelled scared

I slowly got up back on the 木, ツリー and clamped my claws into the wood. "Yes, I'm okay!" I yelled back

The rest of the way went smoothly. As I got to the end I jumped off the 木, ツリー and landed on the other side. I looked back at Kate.

"Okay, it's your turn! Try clamping your claws into the wood with every step!" I yelled for her to hear me

"Okay!" Kate yelled back

She started climbing onto the 木, ツリー and slowly walking, clamping her claws to the wood. I had my front paws on the 木, ツリー in case I had to help her. I stayed in position to jump if she needs help. Kate was slowly walking across the fallen 木, ツリー being as careful as ever. When she got half way, Kyle suddenly remembered something.

Flashback

"Come on dude, what are あなた waiting for? Hurry up!" I yelled at the black wolf

"Dude, I'm trying my best. Just calm down, it's a far drop if I mess up." the 狼, オオカミ replied annoyed

"Well hurry up! My parents will call for ディナー soon!" I 発言しました getting angry

"Okay if I knew that being trained to be a beta was this hard then I wouldn't have signed up. I'm Jackson the omega, not Jackson the trying to be a beta but is failing wolf. How much もっと見る until I'm actually a beta?" Jackson asked

"One もっと見る test after this and I'll get あなた up to a beta. Now come on, if I can get across あなた can too!" I answered

"Okay fine." Jackson replied

Jackson had got half way when he slipped and landed on his belly. He dug his claws into the 木, ツリー and was stuck on the side of the fallen tree.

"KYLE HELP!" Jackson yelled hanging on for his life.

"I'm coming!" I yelled running on the log and grabbing him before he could fall.

I began pulling him up trying to not let him fall into the spikes at the bottom. I pulled him up back onto of the 木, ツリー and we both walked slowly to the other side.

"Okay I've done this stupid balance test. What else is there?" Jackson asked

Before I could answer, a 狼, オオカミ came running at me full speed. "Kyle, come on it-"

Flashback ends

I was cut from my flashback when I heard Kate's scream. I focused my memory back and saw that she was slipping to the side of the tree.

"Kyle help me!" Kate screamed

I ran onto the slippery log not slipping at all. I continued until I got to Kate who was grabbing the side of the fallen tree. I was able to grab her pelt and pulled her back up. It was very slippery so when I got her back up I clamped my claws to the 木, ツリー not wanting to fall off. I then guided Kate to the other side of the tree. When we got to the other side, Kate slaps me in the face. I hit the ground hard at the impact.

"What was that for?" I asked getting back up

"That's for making me go across the bridge! I almost died out there!" Kate yelled at me

"Look I'm sorry I just zoned out back there but we're across now so let's keep walking." I said

"Okay fine... But when we find a デン to sleep in, your sleeping outside got it?" Kate 発言しました angry

I looked at the ground sad at what I had done. "Yes sweetie." I 発言しました depressingly

We continued to walk trying to find water desperately. We then came along a river and began drinking furiously since we hadn't had some since yesterday. We both cleaned up our 毛皮 since it was cover in dirt from taking down that caribou. Suddenly, I got the most familiar scent of a 狼, オオカミ nearby.

"Kate I have a scent of another 狼, オオカミ I know." I said

"Really? Whose is it?" Kate asked

"I can't make out the scent. It's mixed with others but 2 I remember were my friends. The other one I don't know whose it is." I replied

"Well I think we should follow the unknown one then." Kate suggested

"Okay let's go." I answered

We both swam across the river following the scent. As we got closer to the scent Kate picked up another one.

"Kyle, I've found their scent again!" Kate yelled

She took off running but I was able to catch up to her. She had me in strength but I was still faster than her によって a lot. We continued to run until we came to a den. The scent was strongest in there so we walked in. We looked all around the デン and couldn't find them.

"Fuck! Why can't we find them! This shit is fucking pissing me off!" Kate screamed after pounding her paw into the ground

She was about to burst into tears when I came to her and embraced her. "Please don't cry Kate, I don't want to see あなた cry. Don't worry we are getting closer and closer to them I know we are. Please trust me." I 発言しました trying to calm her down

"I'm trying my best Kyle... But every time I'm thinking of Humphrey and Lilly... All alone with no help または anything." Kate replied with a sad tone

"Kate, they aren't alone. They have each other. あなた have to trust that Humphrey wouldn't let anything happen to Lilly. Nothing will happen to them. Trust me." I replied

"Okay I'll try to." Kate said

"I think we should stay here until morning." I suggested

"No we stay here and we leave when it's still dark out." Kate 発言しました confidently

"Okay." I 発言しました kind of depressed

We both laid down in the den. I closed my eyes ready to fall asleep until I felt Kate hit me on the head.

"Remember what I told あなた Kyle? You're sleeping outside tonight." Kate said

I got up and looked at Kate. "Yes mama." I replied walking out of the デン depressed.

I turned around seeing Kate lay down and falling asleep. I felt sad that I had made Kate go over that tree. I laid on the ground very tired from today. I still was wondering on one thing though...

(That smell... It can't be him... can it?) I asked myself falling asleep...
