Firstly, I'd like to say that I'm really really sorry that I haven't written a part in ages!
"Wolf traits?" I asked as they watched me intently. Scruff nodded. "Listen, what do you hear?" He asked. I couldn't hear much, just a stream really and that was it. I couldn't hear them breathing, I couldn't hear birds chirping, I could only hear that stream. Scruff was smiling at me smugly, he knew what I was hearing. "Where is it?" I asked. "The stream? About 6 miles south from here" He grinned. I nodded. "It's quiet though" I replied, not quite accepting it. "Close your eyes" Scruff smiled. "Listen" I did as he said, closed my eyes, and listened. I could only hear the stream but then I heard something. I remembered hearing it before somewhere but I didn't know where. "Remember when we went to look for the deer? When we wanted to see the new baby? Remember back to then" Red's voice whispered in my ear. I remembered it well. We had watched this deer grow and she was beautiful. Then she fell pregnant and watching her stomach grow had been the most exciting and then she had disappeared so we went searching for her. We found her by a stream with her baby beside her. The sound I was hearing was exactly the same as the one we had heard when we found them. It was the sound of them lapping up the water. Then something caught my attention, close to the stream, but getting nearer to us. It sounded like paws and they were getting closer at a rapid speed. I looked over to Scruff, who was watching the trees. What was I supposed to do? I couldn't outrun a wolf if it got to it ... I climbed the nearest tree to me and sat on a thick branch near the top. Was I scared? Yes. Was I terrified when I saw the wolf was huge? Definitely! "Mr Wolf, what are you doing here?" Fang asked. And I knew who he was. The big bad wolf.
