"Ares, one of us has to go and hunt, or we'll all starve! You can't make me stand here forever." Said Nabara. "I know... I just don't want them finding us. I'll go, I failed to see the plan to drive us out. If I get caught, I deserve it." Ares said. "Ares, whatever you say or do, i'm with you. I'm coming with you, and there's nothing you can do or say to stop me." Claudette told him. Ares sighed.
After leaving to go hunt, they both found a spot about ten minutes away from their little camp they made. It was a inside the border that was once Ares's territory, so they had to be extra careful. "Ares? I found a squirrel over there! Let me go get it." Said Claudette. Ares watched, and then turned away as he smelled something himself. "Hmm...." he mumbled. When the smell drifted away, he decided it was pointless. But as he turned back around, he saw a wolf standing there, with two humans, onw of which had his foot pressing really hard on Claudette's muzzle so she couldn't talk. The other human was getting ready to get some sort of weapon out to obviously hurt or worse, kill her.
"Ahh, you see, Ares? You cannot run away from me." Said Malin. "No! Let go of her! Erragh!" He grunted as he pushed all his strength into leaping at the human holding Claudette down, but instead, was knocked backwards by Malin. "Agh! Uh... Don't hurt her... take me, kill me, not Claudette. She hasn't done anything to you. Leave her alone." Ares demanded.
"Never, this will be your suffering... watching your loved one be tortured." Malin said, and as he swished his tail and two more men came out of the trees and held Ares down. "No!" He screamed as they wrapped a snare wire around Claudette's neck, attached it to a thick tree branch, and left her there, hopeless and choking. "No! No! Please! Let her go! This isn't fair to her! I... i'm sorry, Claudette... this is my faul- AHH!" Ares cut off as one of the men stabbed a needle of something in his neck. "Uh... What was that?" He asked Malin. "It was a liquid that makes you very stiff and tired, and you can't get up and do anything. Eventually you'll fall asleep." Said Malin. "No... Claudette, please listen to me... if I would've just kept you at camp..." he panted. She looked at Ares, terrified and half passed out. "Don't worry, we are only knocking her out as well, even thought it may seem lime we are trying to choke her. She is just suffering while she passes out, and it takes longer." Said Malin.
"I... can't... feel..." is all Ares managed to say before he fell asleep.
When Ares woke up, Claudette was staring into his eyes, pleading for him to wake up. "Thank god! Your awake!" She said. "Agh..... where's Malin?" Ares asked. She shrugged. A man walked over to them, but he seemed younger than the rest. "Looking for me?" He asked Ares. "Hey what the? You speak... wolf?" Ares asked. "Yes, Ares. I am, after all, Malin." Said the human. "What? How...?" Asked Claudette. Malin laughed. "Ahh, you see, I am a shape-shifter. But I am mostly a wolf." Said Malin. "And, as you would want to know, we will all agree to you having a proper exile, as you havn't had one, because you ran away before we could properly exile you. Lets start. Ares, Claudette, for your improper ruling and judgement, you will be exiled. If you are seen, anyone has the right to kill you on sight. Now get out!" Yelled Malin.
Ares and Claudette left, back to the camp.
"So, how did it go?" Asked Beke.
Thanks for reading! I worked hard on this one, including the others in this series! Watch for more, and hope for them to be better! Any advice or feedback would be awsome and helpful!
