?Chapter 2?

When they reach the boarder they enter hell. Wolves dead and many injured, blood splattered everywhere. Looking around the blood splattered battle field She see's one of Black's seekers get ready to finish off a delta. Sparta ran as fast as she could towards the wolf and tackled him biting at the wolves vulnerable white furred neck, and pinning him. Her fur prickles and she dug her claws into his back. "Get off me mutt!" The wolf wiggled and shook trying to get free of her tight grasp. Sparta bit down harder and was ready to kill him when three members of Blacks seekers jumped on her back, and clawed at her neck. "Sparta," Shadow shouted. She ran and pulled the wolves off Sparta's back, digging her teeth into them with all her strength. She kicked one of there faces with her hind legs as it tried to sneak up on her, and pinned the other with her front paws. Sparta loosened her grip on the wolves neck and tried to go help her sister. The other wolf bit down on her hind leg and knocked her down. She tasted the earth in her mouth and rapidly spit it out as the wolf stood still hanging on to her leg bearing his lightly stained teeth. Sparta looked at the wolf's stance and wiggled him towards a steep hill. The wolf backed up as she had planned and slide down the hill tumbling, Sparta following shortly after him.

When they reached the bottom, Sparta had landed on top of him nose to nose. They both froze with shock and unsure of what to do next, wither to claw at one another or just to get up and go there separate way's. Sparta stared into his moss green eyes and he looked in to her sunset and lake colored like ones. The other wolf went to growl, but then blushed when she went to move away but stumbled closer to him. Now chest to chest, his heart pounding like a drum under his white fur. He could swear she could hear his heart through his chest. So unsure of his emotions, he had never felt like this before. Such a strange feeling, his alpha had warned him of this but he did not say it would feel so good. He kept thinking in his head, "it is what i was sent to do, kill the alpha of Heaven Gate, but if i would have know this was going to happen i would have said no to this mission." Sparta just stared at the white wolf wondering what he was going to do. She was in the perfect spot for him to slice her open, but yet he did not move. The blood covering his black toe less sock paws would give Black a reason to celebrate for a change. After he has lost to Heaven Gate so many times in the past. Sparta blushed lightly, seeing that she was closer then she was meant to be to one of Black's seekers with out it being a soulless body. As they continued to stare at one another Sparta started to blush more and more seeing he was uncomfortable with the situation but yet happy. "He's...kinda cute," she thought to herself.

"Can i join your pack," he blurted out. Sparta opened her eyes wide form his question and her blushing disappeared. She jumped and landed a couple feet away from him. "Why would you ask to join my pack in such a dumass moment. "She took out her claws and cut open his chest open like she would do to any elk. "I have no clue if i could except anyone from Black's pack, especially when there asking to in a time and place like this," she barked as the wolf fell to he ground coughing up blood. She started to run back up the hill. "Wait!" Sparta looked over her shoulder and looked at him. " My names Yuukan," he said still lying on the ground. She looked at him a bit longer then ran up the hill chasing off most of Black's seekers. As she ran up the hill the wolf shuddered, "that some alpha they got." Some seekers came to get Yuukan and ran back to there territory where he would be punished for his loss against Heaven Gate.

"Leader we won, but with many injured. Cyclone is dealing with that," Flash murmured, blood running down his shoulder. "I'm aware of that. Thank you Flash paw," Sparta barked comely with tension in her voice. "What's the madder you seem stressed or something," Flash yelped with concern as the other wolves came up behind him concerned as well. "I'm fine, just a stupid wolf from Black's seekers group became an interference," Sparta barked with anxiety in her voice. "OK," they said as they walked off. When they had left and headed back to Hitler's Mountain (Pack Den's.) Sparta let out a huge breath and started to blush again as she thought back on what had happen at the bottom of the hill with that wolf with the moss eyes. "Yuukan," his name echoed in her head.

"Mama why are you blushing? Did something happen that your not proud of," said Toco as she sat in front of her. Sparta looked at her pup surprised to see her so soon after the fight. "No nothing is wrong, I'm proud that my pack has gained another victory. I don't really know why I'm blushing," she barked smiling. "Oh OK mama," Toco said with a smile. "Mama is everyone OK?" She sat down as she asked the question prepared for the worst. "Yes everyone is just fine little one." She stood up and started to walk back to the den's. Toco followed her mother back. "Mama did anyone die?" Sparta spoke now."Just a couple, but even a couple is to many," she barked as she picked up Toco in her mouth and carried her up to the den. "Oh OK, who are the ones that died," she asked. Sparta looked up to the sky to see the moon rising. "That is not important for you to know right now, it's your bed time." She sat down and put her pup on a piece of animal hid. "Now go to sleep." She lied down beside the pup. "Awww fine." Toco sighed and fell asleep.

When her pup fell asleep she went back to the boarder, and sat at the edge unaware shadow was following. "Hello sis how ya doing," she asked. Sparta jumped. "Don't do that!" She sat down with a ashamed yet happy look on her face. "Ha ha I made you jump," she smiled with a little smirk. Sparta stuck her tongue out at her sister and stood up. "Be nice i scared you fair in square!" She smirked sticking her tongue out as well. "It not nice to scare your big sis!" She barked and sat back down. "You jumped out from behind me!" Shadow now spoke. "Your point." "Ugh just head back to camp miss!" Sparta barked. " Why me!" Shadow yelped. "Now!!!" She commanded. "Fine fine OK," she said as she ran back to camp afraid of her sis nipping her.

Sparta stepped forward continuing to walk along the boarder of the Heaven Gate territory. She sniffed the air filled with the thick sent of blood and seekers. "Ugh. I wonder when that sent will disappeared from the land." - she looked down the grassy hill and sat down wondering. She pointed her ears as there was a rustling of leaves. She looked down at a bush at the bottom of the hill. Sparta got in a crouch position and slid down the hill quietly. Two gleaming yellow eyes peered from the bush. Sparta sensed the sadness and hatred from the eyes peering from the bush. The bush started to rustle again and she took out her claws and pounced.

"AUGH!" Sparta lifted her head and barked fearlessly " what are u doing in my territory!" Her eyes widened seeing who it was. "You again!" Yuukan shook his head trying to get rid of the dizziness from the sudden attack had caused him. Once he regained his sight he wagged his tail. "Well hello there," he said happily with a hint of fear in his voice. She growled sensing his fear and barked loudly "Why are u here!" Yuukan now spoke "I'm here to see you...Sparta." Sparta flicked her tail and stood tall, "why is that." "Like I said before....i want to join Heaven Gate." Sparta looked down on the wolf and a hint of anger burned in her eyes as Yuukan continued, "Black treats me and the pack like crap and we usually end up eating rat food. I no longer want to live that way. I want to eat real food, food fit of hunting and worthy of sharing with a pack. fight to keep food." he turned his head slightly to the side avoiding her strong gaze. "I heard the land use to be full of life when Bracken was leader, but it started going down hill when Surge became alpha.....and when Black became alpha everything fell and turned to dust like after star fall." Sparta lightened her gaze and her eyes clouded slightly with sadness. She remembered star fall as if it had happen a sun ago.

She remembered the screams of terror, and the smell of fire and burning body's. She could see her older sister carrying her through the burning forest as the stars continued to fall in the clear night sky, it slowly being clouded with smoke. Her sister feather looked up seeing a tree falling towards her. Feather tossed her younger sister into a puddle as the tree fell on top of her. A signal yelp and the dead silence fell. Sparta could only hear the crackling of the wood burning all around her. She watched the flames rise and fall as the sun rose. After the fire had ended she wondered into the ash looking for feather. Sparta stopped in her tracks and opened her eyes wide and shook in fear. " F-f-feather!?!?!" Sparta stared down at the burned body of her sister. Tears ran down her cheek and she stumbled backwards into a burned tree still shaking. Her sisters mouth was burned and opened and her eye half burned out of her head the other one lied across the way burned all except for the back.

When she gained the courage to walk up to the body she could smell the burned flesh start to rot. She crinkled her nose in disgust of the smell, but she got over it and lied down next to the body putting her head into her sisters chest as if she were still alive. "Sis......don't leave me....please...not yet...don't head to The Land of Spirit yet," Sparta mumbled to herself. Sparta stayed by her sisters side till new sun. When she saw the new sun rise above the destroyed land; Sparta stood and nuzzled her sister one last time before she headed off to find a part of the land that was not destroyed in the fire.
