The night was cold as the breeze blew into the silent night. Dark shapes moved on the ground silently stalking, a crow cawed in the distance as the figures made their way towards a mass of waiting warriors at a hill. These warriors stood tall their tails raised, their breathes could be seen in the cold air as
A howl went out in the air and the dark figures leaped, snarling and growling at their opponents, the wolves wore iron armor and steel claws that clashed and sliced. Some of the warrior's fell wailing, others dragged themselves away from the battle. On a hill in the distance stood a large wolf, he wore armor that glowed against the moonlight.
Alpha Dyer watched as the swarming mass of the enemy clashed into his, He went back in the den and greeted a wolf with eyes that looked almost white and his fur grey and black, Dyer's fur was white as snow and he was covered in old battle wounds. "Alpha Dyer, the spell is almost complete" The wolf said, Dyer looked at four wolves that chanted in front of two pillars that had a light green, glowing through the cracks "you sure that the mage wolves will do it in time Realm spirit?" Dyer asked, the wolf nodded "you can call me Kludo" the spirit said, Dyer went to the entrance and howled a message to his warriors ~stay close to the den in tight formation hold them off.~
A wolf limped towards Dyer and lowered his head in greeting and sat next to him. Two days had passed and the enemy wolves settled themselves around the warzone tending to their own injured. Dyer sighed and got up "how much longer can we take this?" he whispered to himself. he Looked around, his delta reported that there were only two million wolves in the clan and 80 members in Dyers pack. These wolves were clan wolves each pack belonged to a clan or they were a clan, most clans consisted over 7 thousand packs, or more, other times its less and less.
Dyer looked at the injured wolf, the injured wolf got up and went over to him "alpha...they attacked us from the...north...our casualties are growing...we won't last any longer-" the wolf went silent, "I spoke to the realm spirit , he said it will be done by moon high...we will last till then Beta Gardo" Dyer said with a glare at the army across the land. Dyer said his words and the helmet strapped itself on him. He walked down the hill knowing this would be his last battle, but he didn't care it would be worth saving his own.
The realm spirit sat at the entrance as the clan leader went off to the lines, he knew that the leader will die a gruesome death, he knew every wolf's fate. He got up and went inside the pups were asleep oblivious to what was happening around them. The realm spirit sighed and went to the pillars that now glowed a dark green color, he turned to 2 female wolves that sat in silence at the edge of the den "fetch the pups, its time" he said the two females got up and went towards the sleeping pups picking them up gently, they walked to the pillars and laid the pups in between. The realm spirits body started to glow as he started chanting.
Dyer stood on a small hill overlooking his warriors "I cannot assure you that we will win" He said he moved forward and straightened up," if my pups can save the realm of Algorium then they will save this world, if you survive I'll leave my delta in charge, I put my full trust in you all to keep fighting against Gavandar!" He spoke loudly, then looked up at the moon and the stars and let out a howl.
Dyer walked down the hill with four wolves flanking him. A small but muscled wolf with visible scars on his muzzle came towards him "you`ve never been good at speeches" he said with a chuckle but there was no humor in his eyes, Dyer looked at him "you`ve been fighting by my side for many years, this is probably the first time I've seen you limp" Dyer said looking at the paw, the iron claws were mauled, blood drooled out of it but not much, the wolf winced "don`t remind me! I`ve just forgotten about the bloody pain!" the wolf whined. Dyer simply walked on "see you on the other side bane" he said over his shoulder. Dyer stood in the center of his warriors in the distance howls went out in air, the battle was to commence.
The Realm spirit was tired and sore he wondered that it was funny that he could still feel pain 'probably cause I'm in a physical form' he thought to himself. he walked towards a wolf that was covered in the shadows of the den "Are you ready?" the realm spirit asked, the wolf nodded " I know where to take them and who i must give them to" the wolf said in a smooth tone "good, were just about done" the realm spirit said and walked back to the pillars, a howl went off in the distance outside of the den, the battle began.
Dyer ran past most of his warriors that ran towards the enemy, Dyer swerved right almost slamming into his own warrior, he ran into the trees with the 4 other warriors at his heel including the two Beta's Gardo and Bane, Dyer slowed to a crouch he had a feeling that something was coming here.
as he reached a shrub bush he sniffed the air, he growled at the scent he picked up and sprang forward he sprinted forward, following the scent, but suddenly a wolf came from a bush on his flank that bowled him over a couple more of them jumped out at attacked Dyers group, Dyer swerved left and right as the wolf kept attempting to get him get Dyer lunged and got a firm grip on the wolfs throat the wolf tried to slash but Dyer was cutting through the wolfs shoulder with his right paw.
Dyer held the wolf then bit down hard crushing the wind pipe the wolf tried to breath and flailed its legs but it went limp as Dyer released him. Dyer looked around he had one casualty it was one of the warriors. Dyer licked the wolfs muzzle in gratitude and then turned and ran again following the scent but he only got 20 metres before another group attacked them this time 2 wolves were on him Dyer growled in frustration' this is a waste of my time!' He thought angrily, his eyes started to glow a velvet red, he sprang at the one wolf slicing a huge gash at the wolfs throat, the other one hesitated which had him end up whimpering on the ground.
Dyer again started running this time with no more groups he stopped in a clearing where the scent lead to a single large wolf that sat looking in Dyers direction, he had a grin that made Dyer's fur stand "Dyer? hmm i never expected you here, I thought you`d be running off with you`re pups whiles these mutts waste their lives" the wolf said in a surprised tone...Dyer felt his muscles tense he felt as if something wasn`t quit right about this." I don`t fear you, your mind is blind with power, just like your father" Dyer said looking to the bushes expecting a ambush but the leaves and trees were unstirred "You cannot compare me to my father" the wolf said, Dyer dug his paws into the snow his metal claws slicing into the ground underneath "Gavandar, i suggest you just leave there is no point in this, Go back to your land what will you gain by killing my pups?" Dyer asked in a irritated tone, Gavandar just grinned and got up "You`re a fool you know, You think I just want power?" Gavandar said, he shook his head as if disappointed. "I want you to feel the pain I did when you broke my pack and clan's pride." Gavandar growled looking up.
Gavandar howled, 20 wolves ran in the clearing snarling, Gavandar looked at Dyer, this time without grinning "kill them but leave him...he`s mines" he commanded and licked his chops. The wolves sprang forward, Dyer knew they were outnumbered but he couldn't run. He jumped on one of the wolves bringing snow that rained around him. He lifted his paw and brought it down the wolf gurgled its cries before dying. Dyer then looked at Gavandar who looked back at him with the same mutual hatred.
Kludo was pacing about muttering a spell here and there he was rushing but he could feel the battle was getting closer every minute by the growls and whines, he came to the pillars and muttered the last spell as quick as he could the pillars now started showing black 'it is time' Kludo thought to himself sighing in relief. A warning howl broke off and the wolf warriors in the den went to the exit just in time as a large group of wolves came in sight.
Kludo sent the mage wolves to help the warriors the wolf that hid in the shadows held the pups in its mouth holding them by their scruffs but by the time they were only a few feet away from the portal wolves sprang on them the wolf that held the pups stumble but gently put down the pups and protected them a female wolf sneaked to the pups and grabbed them and ran to the portal " Kludo! You think we wouldn`t have known about this!" a voice boom over the clashing the she wolf looked back to see a large wolf confronted by Kludo, "Simon back off" he said, the wolf called Simon grinned and jumped getting a firm grip on Kludo`s throat, he shook the realm Guardian till the body went limp he dropped the body and looked at the she-wolf "you!" but the she wolf took the pups and ran into the portal.
Dyer flew into the tree slamming into it hard, he hit the ground. He coughed up blood but got up "stop fighting you know you won`t live" Gavandar said above the yelps of the battle in the background "today you die, today you`re pups die!" Gavandar barked out.
Dyer looked at the moon above, it was full tonight "I will...die, but you...will...n-never kill my pups!" Dyer snarled at Gavandar, Dyers eyes glowed and two wolves appeared by his side the one was blue and the other was red. Gavandars eyes also glowed, and four bigger wolves appeared snarling at Dyer and his spirit wolves, the spirit wolves clashed into each other as Gavandar got a good hold into the dirt.
Gavandar smashed into Dyer the armor impact forced Dyer to stumble, he tried to regain balance but Gavandar didn`t allow him and grabbed him by the scruff and pulled him towards a tree and swung him against it. Dyer was winded but struggled to his paws he stumbled away from the tree "You`ve grown weak" Gavandar said in a menacing tone as he nodded his head in disappointment "I can`t believe my sister fell in love with the likes of you" Gavandar walked forward and grabbed Dyer's helmet and pulled it off Dyer roughly, Dyer panted from the pain and exhaustion.
Dyers body felt sore he saw his spirits flooded by Gavandars "My clan has been dominant for centuries and here you are Leader of the Kilto clan...Savior of the realm " Gavandar growled all humor gone "You`re a fool if you think that i was leading a pack to foil you`re plans...you know Simon? yes him, well he should be there right now ripping you`re pups to pieces" Gavandar said fire in his eyes their spirits disappeared Dyer was struggling to stay up but he mustered all the energy he could.
A howl went off in the distance Gavandars eyes grew large in surprise and disbelief "so they escaped...no...but killing you would drive your clans morale down" Gavandar said starting to grin, he stalked towards Dyer, Dyer was too tired to react Gavandar slammed into him and bit him by the throat pushing him into the snow, "Ill still give an honorable death" Gavandar said his aura fading away, Dyer tried to speak but Gavandar crushed his throat before he could utter a word.
The she wolf woke up at the sound of the pups cries she stumbled to her feet they were in a cave she went to the pups and shushed them in a mothers tone she picked them up and walked out to see a huge field and in the middle was a single wolf, she walked up to him "Welcome, I`m assuming you come from the other realm?" the wolf asked he was grey with a brown diamond shape on his chest. The she wolf nodded "Very well, you can live here, I've been expecting you" the wolf said and they both walked into a den on the edge of the field.
