The irresistible call of crickets slowly took off as the delightful song of the early bird began to fill the air in the fellowship of Spring's sun, which was a sign to all the creatures that the time had come to start the day anew.

Light slowly crept across the land, as the shadows of the night retreat into the deepest holes where they would hide until they were free once more from the repression of the sun. As the light spreads, the early bird was joined by the immense chorus of chirps and calls which let all who could hear know it was a great day to live.

As the light slowly spreads across the valley, it slipped inside the den, where Humphrey, along with Kate, Lilly, Winston, and Eve, slumbered in. As the light crosses over the young grey wolf, he slowly unfolded his eyes from the disturbance of the dawn's light. Still in grief from the traumatic event the other night, there is a empty space in him.

The young Omega saunters toward the edge of the den, where he is able see the morning light. As he sits and gazes at the valley filled with wolves and other creatures, he thinks about his family. It was such a traumatizing moment of his life that no young lad would be able to forget at such a young age. But he might as well start a new life in the Western pack, after the young golden wolf saved his life.

As Kate finally arose from the early sunlight, she notices Humphrey sitting at the edge of the den. She decides to approach to him and be a companionable young wolf to him.

"Hey," Kate says, breaking the silence.

"Hi," Humphrey say, with a bit of a morning voice.

"Did you sleep well?" Kate says, being as friendly as she can to him.

"I slept well," he replied.

The two young pups both gaze at the land upon them, watching all the other wolves wandering around the Western pack. As they both scrutinize the valley, Kate contemplates on starting a friendship with Humphrey. Humphrey, morosely looking around, thinks about the same idea as well.

Breaking the silence once again, Kate finally speaks up.

"So do you wanna maybe play around in the woods or something?" Kate asks, hoping for a positive response.

"Sure!" Humphrey says in a delightful voice.

Without further adieu, the two young wolves take off deep into the woods. As they run off to the woods, the breezy spring air flows across them, grateful that the earth was finally starting to warm up once more in the wake of the dark. They both allowed their eyes to drift off to the direction of the forest, where they both knew that that's where they'll both enjoy themselves. But as Humphrey and Kate were on their way toward that direction, he caught himself recalling the incident, which transpired a day ago. He really felt as though he wished none of this had happened. What if his father was never killed by those wolves? What if his mother never tripped over that rock and couldn't keep up? What if Violet was never shot by one of the hunters? What if she died after that?

Then again, though, he found the Western pack, and might as well start a new life there. So perhaps he should start thinking about the present, and finish his dwelling about the past.

He quickly pulled himself out of the recessions of his mind, as he did not wish to dwell on such thoughts, and allowed his eyes to migrate back to the direction to where he and Kate are headed to.

Finally, after a long run from home, the two young wolves arrive at their destination to where they wished to depart to. As they sit in the grass, they think about what they would like to do for the time being.

"So... now that we're, what would you like to do?" Kate asks, while relaxing in the grass.

"Hmm... I'm not so sure," Humphrey replies, while contemplating.

As they sit in the wood, Kate finally has an idea on what the two of them shall do together, so she decides to tag Humphrey.

"You're it!" Kate yells, as she scurries away, which eventually made Humphrey chase after her.

As the young grey wolf aims Kate in order to tag her back, the two of them go through all sorts of obstacles that would prevent Humphrey to approach her. But at one point during the chase, Kate suddenly falls into a ditch, causing a broken leg, which made her seriously injured.

"Oh!" she cried as she grasped her injured leg.

The sudden motion and outcry caused Humphrey to follow where the shriek was coming from. As he finally arrives to where the commotion was heard from, he spots Kate lying in pain in the ditch. Without a second thought, Humphrey slides down into the ditch to where Kate has fallen until he approaches to her.

"Kate," he said worriedly as he quickly crouches down. "Kate, are you alright?"

"Ugh.. I am, I am," Kate says, reassuringly.

But as she attempts to get up, the agonizing pain prevented her to keep going. Humphrey didn't know what he should do, other than running back to the den and get help from Winston and Eve, and just leave Kate lying in the ditch.

But without thinking about it, Humphrey quickly grabs Kate and carries her on his back, whereupon returning to the den.

Finally arriving to the den, Winston and Eve come out of the den, concerned about what happened.

"What's wrong?" Winston asks, concerned.

"We were playing in the forest, then she fell in a ditch and broke her leg," Humphrey replies.

"We should take her to the healer right away!" Eve says.

Later that evening, Kate exits the healer's den, cured. Winston, Eve, and Lilly were relieved that Kate is alright and that it was nothing very serious. Humphrey is very grateful that Kate is cured and that he didn't left her struggling in that ditch, deep in the woods. The family is very thankful for Humphrey, for bringing Kate back to safety.

"I can't thank you enough for doing this, Humphrey," Winston says, looking down to Humphrey. "You have earned my trust."

"Thank you," Eve says.

"Thank you for bringing my sister back," Lilly says.

Humphrey was amazed that these wolves would thank an omega like him for doing a heroic duty. He's never been trusted like this, which made him feel very proud of himself.

Back at the den, Humphrey decides to relax at the edge of the den. He really enjoys to be seated at the border of the den, where he can enjoy the fresh air.

Kate notices him at the edge of the den and decides to sit next to him, and remembers that she didn't thank Humphrey for saving her life.

"Thanks for getting me out of there. That was very thoughtful of you," Kate says in a friendly voice.

"You're welcome," Humphrey replies. "Friends never leave each other behind."

After his last response, Kate is finally able to trust the omega. She now realizes that a friendship is starting to form. Now that she has great trust in him, they're now the best of friends.
