Fading Mist fleets after the herd of caribou, her hunting party flanking her on either side. Suddenly, another wolf not from her pack, whams into her! Three other loners go after the caribou, and five more come to the aid of their leader. Fading Mist whirls around, and she and her pack fight the loners. As one snaps its jaws shut on Fading Mist, breaking her leg, she howls in rage and fury. Blinded by the blood from her leg, she spits at the loner, "You'll pay for that! Mark my words, you will die!"

Soaring Eagle bolts after Fading Mist, sees her collapse, and rushes for the Loners. "Why are you here!? Away with you!" she cries, but they pay no heed. "This is the territory of the Qakaarti Pack! You have no business here!' But the Loner just gives her a devious look, and says; "That's what you think..."

Fading Mist collapses and fades into darkness. When she wakes up, her leg is throbbing, and Soaring Eagle and Lightning Strike are sitting next to her. "Did the loners get away with it?" she asks groggily...

Soaring. Eagle looks upset. "Yes." she says sadly. "The Loners did get away with it, and they seem to be planning a rebellion, but I don't know how or why."

Fading Mist quickly tries to get up, but feels a stabbing pain in her leg and comes back down with a thump. She rakes her claws through the dust with her good paw. "We have to stop them! We have to attack! I'm helping, and I'm not letting my leg keep me down!" Lightning Strike and Soaring Eagle exchange a pitying look as the wounded beta tries to force herself up. Lightning Strike pads over to his mate as she collapses once again. "At this rate," he points out. "You're staying in camp." He gives his mate a stern look. "But the battle!" Fading Mist protests. "I want to help!" She turns to Soaring Eagle and begs with a pleading look, "I don't have to stay in camp, do I?"

"I'm sorry Fading Mist, but you probably should! You won't be able to walk for a week! (real time). The battle will just damage you more," says Soaring Eagle. "However, we may be sending a group of assasin-wolves to kill Chrystal, the Loner leader. You could probably be on that."

Whispering Moon enters the den, she quietly whispers something to the alpha. She nods and looks at Fading Mist,"The loners are on the move, Whispering Moon says that our spies saw them leave their camp and head north. One of our spies are still following them, but the will be difficult to hunt down, and kill."

"Soaring Eagle?" asks Whispering Moon. "Why do we want to kill them all?" "Why not?" snaps Soaring Eagle. "They nearly killed our Beta. Now they will die!"

"Hey!" protests Fading Mist. "I want to fight! I'm all right!" Fading Mist tries to get up, only to collapse again. "I can fight! Watch this!" She attempts to get up and rake her claws through the air, only to stumble into the side of the den. "Deer ****!" she snarls.

"You are only proving, that you are in No shape to fight, Fading Mist! Stay here I will have one of our servants take care of you!" Soaring Eagle says. "I agree with Soaring Eagle! You look very injured and hurt, there is no way your are going into battle unless you want to kill your self!" Whispering Moon said.

"Look! I'm coming along, okay! I get to kill Chrystal, and that is that! I'm fighting in this battle!" roars Fading Mist indignantly. At that moment, Lightning Strike enters the den and hears. "What about your leg?" he demands. "What about our cubs? You have to stay in camp!" He strides up to his mate and licks her on the head affectionately. He then turns to Soaring Eagle and pleads, "Keep her in camp, where she's safe!" Fading Mist opens her mouth to protest, but Lightning Strike silences her by covering it with his bushy tail and licks her again.

"Lightning Strike is right," says Soaring Eagle. "Fading Mist should stay in camp, no question." Fading Mist opens her mouth again, but Soaring Eagle shoots her a glare. "If you sneak out of camp or anything even REMOTELY like that, you will lose your Beta position for a month." Fading Mist looks shocked, but Soaring Eagle sweeps out of the den, and into the center of the Quartz Camp, watching the sun dapple the dens, turning them into prisms.

Fading Mist drags herself out of the cave to the camp wall and stares mournfully up at the forest above. "It isn't right for a wolf to be stuck in camp. The loners live by no code, and have no pack laws, and that's why Chrystal broke my leg, and now I'm stuck here." She watches Lighting Strike and his hunting party leave the camp, and then glances down at her swollen belly, and wonders if her cubs will hate being stuck in camp like she does. She had been born outside any camp, and spent her whole life out in the forest fighting for her pack and her survival, and now she is stuck being cared for and tended to in camp! The option of her choice seems obvious! Fading Mist will take the forest to this any day!

Soaring Eagle walks up to Fading Mist. "Come with me." she whispers. Soaring Eagle leads Fading Mist into the forest, and turns to face her. "I don't wnat you getting hurt, and you can't tell Lightning Strike, but I want you to come hunting with me. Nothing big, just rabbits for ourselves or something, but I don't want you to get too bored."

"Thanks!" cries Fading Mist joyfully. Spotting a beaver by the river, she crouches down, and then darts forward, sinking her teeth into its neck. "Thank you, Lupus, for the life this delicious smelling beaver has given me," she whispers, looking up to the great wolf goddess. Then she trots over to Soaring Eagle, and says to her, "This is only a beaver, so it'll only feed two wolves. Lightning Strike will try to murder you, well not literally," she adds hastily, as Soaring Eagle cocks her head. "If he finds out that you let me out of camp, so what do you say we share this," she invites her alpha, prodding the beaver with her paw.
