A flash of lightning revealed a wolf above a female wolf, raising it's paw to strike. "No," I shouted. But as I ran the figures got farther away, preventing me from getting near. The attacker raised it's claw and struck! "No," I shouted once more, knowing it would not help. I can not bear see another wolf get heart by it's own kind. I rushed toward the figures as fast as my paws could carry me. This time I was able to catch up. I looked at the attacker as he started flee. He turned his head, and I saw something familiar. Then, the attacker ran into brush.
I bent over the dying wolf;` she was suffering from a deep gash in her belly. "What?" I shouted, realizing this was a wolf I knew. Then, I saw another wolf. He had green eyes and a gray coat. He also had a cut on his left ear. This wolf appeared to be only a pup. I saw the pup turn and chase another wolf pup. But the other pup kept on running, the chaser fell into the mud. As quick as he fell another deadly wolf jumped upon him. The attacker gave him a bite in the shoulder. I could hear his yowl from where I was standing.
I heard coughing. I turned to look at the female wolf, her eyes were closing, her breath was shallow. I stepped back knowing that this wolf was dead, or was going to be.
"Griffin! Griffin!" I feel a violent shaking. I opened my eyes and I saw Phoenix. It was just a dream.
I know that shadowy creature we saw the day before. It was Cobra! I know the dying wolf, it was my mom. That pup that slipped was Swamp...... My mom was dead.........
Was Swamp alive? Is Swamp alive? Where is Swamp? How was that shadowy creature Cobra?

Chapter 3 - A Small Phoenix
"Yo, wake up!" My eyes opened. Did I just black out? "Yo," said a voice from in the hole, I..I mean we are sitting in. I sat up, and saw a fox. The fox had orange fur and has white on it's tail and paw. He had a long nose kind of like an anteater and a bead black nose. "Hey, you are okay?" said the fox. "I'm okay. What happened?" I asked. "You blacked out, after I pulled you into the hole. By the way my name is Phoenix," said the fox in a splatter of words. "Hi Phoenix. You know the funny things I heard earlier? What were they?" I asked still trying to clear my head. "Ohh they were...." Phoenix did not get to finish because of the same howl, from before, split the air. "Quiet they are coming," hissed Phoenix in a hushed voice.
I slunk down into the hole. I saw the dust rise and two wolves come from the dust. They were black as the night. They did not have a solid shape, it kind of looked like their fur was on fire. Their eyes were a gray. I seen them before.
The two wolves came and sniffed at the hole. They were close that I could see into their eyes. "Get down," Phoenix hissed. "They can not smell to well and their eye site is bad." Had Phoenix seen these wolves before?
She knew those eyes. Those ears. The wolves ran off into the rising sun. I did not realize I had blacked out for that long.
I know those eyes........
