Wolf - My Story

                     

Chapter 1

The Sad Night

“Where is Fast?” Asked Wise. They were playing hide and seek. “Is he hiding in the snow?” Sure enough, a little gray wolf was there in the snow. “You are the best cub in all of Alaska, no… in the world,” claimed Wise. “YOU are the best dad in the world,” answered back Fast, shaking snow off of his nose. Come on!” interrupted Strong. He is the leader of the pack along with his wife Flexible. “It’s time to eat dinner! “ Announced Strong.

After dinner (they had a small moose) it was time for Fast to go to bed. He was kind of nervous because tomorrow was his first day of Wolf Elementary School (also it would be his 6th birthday) and his dad wouldn’t be protecting him anymore.

The next morning, Fast saw a baby deer and he wanted to show everyone at Wolf Elementary school that he was a good hunter so he leaped at the deer and started to chase it around, but he lost it.

Suddenly he realized he was outside of his den. He was not old enough to be out of his den! Oh wait, he thought. Today is my 6th birthday, I am old enough. He ran back into the hole but peeked his head out. He heard Strong hunting a big elk or something else big because he heard him grunting, struggling to kill it.

Fast couldn’t believe that he was finally old enough to come out of his den! He went over to his dad to wake him up. When he got to his dad he saw that the pack put some red paint on his neck, back, and leg. He laughed…the pack was so funny! He started shaking his dad awake. But he didn't move. He started to yell in his ear, “wake up!” But he didn't wake up. He howled to get the pack. They came over. “Is that red paint on his body? “Asked Fast. ”No it's blood! “Answered Strong. “Who did this? “Asked Fast. “I don’t know,” answered Strong. Fast started running to Wolf Elementary School not knowing exactly what happened to his dad.

Chapter 2

First Day of School

Fast left a trail of ice so he wouldn’t get lost on the way back. On the way, he saw a big grandfather clock. It showed that it was 8:00. Wolf elementary starts at 10:00 and he didn’t know he was too early. So, he went back home. When he set off, he followed the trail of ice back home. After he walked by, he threw pieces of ice to the side so no one would follow him home.

When he got home he asked Strong to take him back to Wolf Elementary school. “Yes, “he answered. So they took off. Why did you run off?” Asked Strong.  “Because….,” mumbled Fast.  RING RING!!! rang the school bell. “Bye!” Fast yelled. Running to the school door.   

He saw his friend from Pee Wee Pawball. His name was Loud because he is very Loud. Like how Fast name is Fast because he is Fast. The wise name was Wise because he was Wise (and so on).

“Loud!” Fast exclaimed. He ran and knocked over a wet floor sign. He didn’t even notice.“ AHHHH!!!” Roared Loud as he jumped out of the way. Fast slammed into the wall. “Dude let me help you up,” insisted Loud (loudly.) Fast grabbed Loud’s paw and when he was about halfway up Loud let go. Fast fell on the floor. “Sorry! That was an accident. Try again” announced Loud. So Fast grabbed Loud’s paw when he was about halfway up, Loud let it go again. “That was-”, started Loud. “You know what? I will just get up by myself,” interrupted Fast.

By the way, my name was Loud but now.. it is Mean!  And this is my gang. We go around causing mischief. “Do you wanna join us?” Asked Mean.

Chapter 3

Recess

It was time for recess. During recess Mean and his gang circled around a small wolf. Seeing this Fast quickly climbed up a tree and jumped down right before Mean was about to attack the small wolf.

“Bet you can’t catch me!” Challenged Fast as he started running. So the “gang “started chasing Fast all around the snow. Then Fast had a plan. He lost them, then he took two branches and tied them together with a rope. Then he found a piece of the ice ball. He had made a slingshot. He pulled back the rope and when Mean came he let go of the ice ball.

It had hit Mean in the face and he fell down. He was still breathing, he just passed out. He did the same to the rest of the gang then, he felt... good. He ran back to the place where Mean and his gang had circled the small wolf. “Are you alright?” Asked Fast. But the small wolf didn’t move. But after an hour he got up. Although he was bleeding he was still alive. “My name is Nerd,” confessed Nerd. “Thanks for saving me,” murmured Nerd. “You are welcome,” replied Fast. He felt awesome! He had just saved the life of another wolf.

“I AM THE ONE WHO KILLED YOUR FATHER!!!!!” yelled a familiar voice. “It was you!”  Fast asked furiously!!!!!!

                          

Chapter 4 
The Murderer

       

Fast turned his head to see who the murderer was. He was shocked. It was STRONG, the pack leader.

“How could you? Fast whimpered. “He is my dad and the best hunter in the pack !”

“I didn’t have a choice” mumbled STRONG

“I had to …” Started STRONG

“Shut up I don’t want to hear it!” Interrupted Fast.

“My dad loved you as a brother. Why did you kill my dad?” asked FAST. FAST got so mad and he wanted to kill STRONG immediately. But how?  Finally, he had a plan, he was gonna use the exact same plan as he used to take down Mean. He took two branches of a tree, then he started looking for a rope.

It was very hard to find a rope. Last time, he just used a jump rope that nobody was using. But he wasn’t at school, so he decided to look for a rope in the forest. He looked up in trees, down on the snowy floor, and on the rocks. Finally, he saw something shiny and brown in the bushes. “Perfect, a rope” he thought. He tried to grab it but then it moved. Then he realized it was a tail! He hid in the snow like he did while playing hide and seek with father Wise.

He peeked over and he saw another wolf pack! He also saw Nerd there! “ Hahaha!” yelled a very fat wolf. “We forced that dumb STRONG to kill WISE. WISE was the only one who could outsmart the trap we are going to set.

“More elk…” offered The nerd in a quiet voice. “Say it louder, or else I will spank you,” roared the really fat wolf. Fast understood that NERD was made a slave. Anyways, NERD is smart and he wouldn’t get himself into any more trouble, so decided to leave the place.

Chapter 5
The Ending

Fast found STRONG talking to his wife. “STRONG!” Fast yelled.

“I know you got threatened to kill my dad, and I am not mad about that, but we need to take down the rest of the traps so no more wolves get hurt!”

“Finally, I was trying to tell you that.” STRONG was relieved.  “How did you figure that out?” Flexible asked.

“I eavesdropped on them talking while I was looking for a rope in the woods,” Fast answered.

“Why were you looking for rope?”

“Uh.I was just bored,” lied Fast.

“Let's talk, STRONG,” Fast suggested.

They began walking, discussing how to disarm the traps, then out of nowhere, a spear came flying towards Fast.

“Watch out!!” STRONG screamed. He quickly grabbed Fast’s shoulders and moved him out of the way. The spear twisted, then hit a tree.

“Should I thank him?” Fast thought. “No, he killed my father!”

“Oh my god!!” screamed STRONG

STRONG stood in front of a ditch with sharp spikes pointing up from the bottom. There was a small yellow peg of wood sticking out of the snow in front of it.

“STRONG! I understand the trap now!” Fast squealed

“We learned about this in ‘Trap science’ last week. You dig a hole and cover it up with fallen tree branches and grass, which they haven’t done yet. Then you put a small peg as a sign in front of the hidden trap to make sure none of your own pack falls into the ditch. Idiots! That one is a classic” Fast claimed

“You’re right Fast!” STRONG said with a shivering voice. Our pack is in grave danger. We have to do something now before it gets out of hand”

“We should immediately let our pack members know that the yellow pegs of wood mean it is a trap,” STRONG suggested.

“No STRONG! I have a better idea! We should move the pegs around so our enemies fall into them and perish! We’ll put our own secret signs in front of the actual traps.” FAST suggested.

“Fast you’re a genius!” said STRONG. So they started working on their trap. It worked! One by one the opponents fell into their own ditches and perished. The only Nerd survived as he was at the den cleaning the dishes. Nerd heard about his pack member’s fate. He heard it live on Fox news.

Suddenly Fast realized that Nerd doesn’t have a pack now.  “What should we do with NERD? He left our pack but he has never hurt any of us” asked FAST.

“We should kill him” roared STRONG

“No, in that case, I should have killed you first. My dad once said, sometimes, family members may go away from us and they may even try to harm you. But, we should always keep the doors open. Without them, we are not a complete family” FAST sounded mature

“You are like your dad. Always wise. I am sorry, I killed him. You are now our leader” roared STRONG

They both went to NERD’s cave

           

“Hi Nerd, sorry about killing your new friends. They were bad”. Fast comforted Nerd. Silence filled the area.

“Would you like to be back in our pack?” Asked STRONG.

“Yes please!” Answered Nerd.

They took NERD home and offered him an Elk.
