Chapter Five: Hunter Attack

When Humphrey and Kate arrived at Lilly and Garth's den, they could already tell what had happened. "Oh no." Kate cried as she saw Garth stood over the body of Kate's younger sister Lilly, who was unconscious. The side of Lilly's body, normally covered with snow-white fur had been dyed red with blood. Garth saw Kate approaching. "Is she dead?" Kate asked, looking extremely concerned.

"No." Garth replied. "She hasn't been hit anywhere serious, the bullet cut through her side. She'll be alright."

Humphrey joined Kate by her side. "Oh my God. Let me guess…hunter, right?" Humphrey asked Garth.

"Yes. He just took off when I showed up, looks like he remembered me from earlier." Garth told him. "I'll kill him for this." Garth said coldly.

"Not if I get to him first." Kate said vengefully.

"Kate, you shouldn't go up against that hunter. Something bad is gonna happen." Humphrey told her.

"Shut up Humphrey. I could take on a whole of group of hunters right now." Kate said.

Humphrey finally knew for certain, the nightmare was turning into a reality. She's going to go out there, and get herself killed.

"You can't! It's too dangerous!" Humphrey tried to convince her.

"I can take care of myself Humphrey! I don't need you!" Kate shouted at him.

That comment stung. But Humphrey knew deep down she didn't mean it, she was angry, and Humphrey couldn't blame her, given the circumstances.

"You know you don't mean that." Humphrey said.

"I know what exactly what I mean, and I know exactly what I'm going to do! I'm going to kill that hunter!" Kate shouted.

"You can't!" Humphrey argued.

"And why not?" Kate asked, challenging him.

"Because I know for a fact that if you go out there, you're going to get yourself killed!" Humphrey said.

Kate didn't listen, and turned away from Humphrey and started walking away from him.

"How do you think I'd feel if you died?" Humphrey asked. Kate turned around and faced him.

"Humphrey, I'm not going to die! Get that through your thick skull!" Kate shouted at him.

"How do you know?" Humphrey was shouting now.

"Watch me." And with that, Kate sprinted off in search of the hunters.

She's dead, she's going to die. And there's nothing I can do about it. Humphrey thought helplessly. Garth approached Humphrey.

"She needs you." Garth said, and for once, Garth had said something that made sense to him.

"More than you know." Humphrey said.

"Not that much." Garth replied.

Humphrey smiled, and took off in search of Kate, and as he sprinted across fields and through the forest, he knew one thing, Kate was going to die.

But not today. Humphrey thought.
