Bane quietly walked in and sat beside Tanner and Sarah. Their was two wolves talking, it was a black wolf named Braik talking with a wolf that Bane could not recognise. 'Could this wolf be from another pack?' Bane wondered. There had never been a wolf from another pack come in all the time Bane had been in this pack. This wolf was a lovely grey brown with darker stripes on her back and was as beautiful as any wolf. But though the outsider smiled Bane saw at the edge of that smile a sadness that was as dark as the churning waters of a storm. Braik was speaking now. "why have ypu come to our pack Nikea?" The outsider known as Nikea spoke now with a voice made for high authority, "I have come to inform all packs in the area of a sighting." she paused letting the anticip ation sink in, then continued. "Their have been mulyiple sightings of a winged wolf, a demric." Now their was talking throughout the whole crowd. It was growing lounder and louder until Braik yelled "SILENCE!" "So." Nikea continued. "I was sent to gather any information on the demric but so far we have only found out that this demric is blue in colour. The silence was like a blade. Tanner stood up now, "their is something else though. isn't there." He said it as more of a statement then a question. "yes." Nikea looked down at her paws and spoke with an empty hollow voice. M-my sister Wyvern. She's gone, missing dissapeared, and no-one knows where she is." Her voice cracked as she said the last part. "I volunteered to go around and ask about the demric hoping i would find some intel on her where-abouts." Now tears flowed from her eyes amd dripped on her paws. Before anyone could say a word, Bane who had been hiding behing Sarah stepped up. Without saying a word for no words were needed she started licking the tears off of Nikea's face. Although Nikea had to many tears in her eyes to see Banes strange markings and eyes the other wolves did. They began whispering about Bane being a offspring ofa demric

OMG! Great!

Tanner noticed this and tried changing the subject. "Nikea why not stay here for a day and rest awhile? I have room for one more in my den and we can go search for Wyvern for you." Between her crying Nikea choked out "that-thats so nice of you. what can i do yo repay your kindess?" "that is not necissary." Tanner now turned to Krin a white and brown wolf. "Krin would you mind arranging a search party to leave as soon as possible?" Krin nodded. He then walked turned and headed to his den to plan. Every one else cleared out except for Bane and Nikea. Nikea had stopped crying and was looking at the ground. "what exactly is a demric?" Bane asked. "well" Nikea started "a demric is from an old myth about a demon coming up from he ll and transforming into a wolf to live. he did this its told because he wanted to start his life over for he had never wanted to go to he ll. but he could not live in peace because the transformation had not gone through all the way though for he was left with his demon wings and so no one wanted him because of it. because they feared him." Nikea looked up now and saw Bane for the first time. What shocked Bane was Nikea didn't even seem to notice Banes glowing eyes. "y-you dont think im a freak?" she asked. "I have seen many strange things in my life time and you are indeed one of them but i have also learned many things. I have learned that just because some one seems different or odd or strange doesn't mean you should be treated different. When i look at you i see a beautiful wolf with a sad story." Bane was in utter shock by Nikea's words. They seemed to reach out towards her and carress her whole being. "may i tell you my story Nikea?" She nodded and Bane lied down beside her and began reciting everything that had happened in her life.
