Treter:
Unpart

I
stared off onto the horizon. Looking towards the distance towns and cities that
laid before my eyes. Exhaling a sigh, I frowned before raising my head. I
raised myself to my feet, lowering my eyes to the grounds again and then turned
around. Glancing back towards the other three coyotes behind me. They were all
gathered in one spot. Eyes bored upon one another with the silence looming over
their heads. They were all gathered surrounding the forest trees as they sway
to the side. But no winds were blew. Things have gotten silent since the wolves
had made their adventure at once. Returning to the horizon and towards the
towns and cities, I spoke towards them suddenly.

“We
should head forth towards the town and see what is going on in Vaster right
now." Upon this, each of the coyote turned their attention towards me. But none
said anything. Neither of them nodded to agree with me either as silence
lingered onto their snouts. Yet despite it all, they rose to their feet and
headed towards my side. The first to speak was Westil who smiled back onto me
nodding his head, “Lets go, then. Who knows what problems did Vaster have faced
right now." “Problems?" I questioned him, turning my attention towards him in
response. But he remained silent, saying nothing else other than to walked
farther away from me. For he had taken the lead and headed forth in the
direction of where that town was however. I watched him go. Wyott stayed silent
as he stood by my side. We glanced at one another; he shook his head and walked
on. Following him. I joined the line too at the back.

We
walked for minutes upon the plains until we had reached our destination.
Vastertown was in front of us. It was not huge as we had thought it was
however. Despite that, we stopped in front of its white gates. Wyott and Westli
sat adjacent to me as I stepped forth towards the gates. Raising my paw onto
its surface, I tapped several times and the gates pulled downwards.
Disappearing through the floor like magic, I turned back towards the others who
have nodded and walked besides me as we walked along the roads. In the morning,
Vaster seem to be busy. Reptiles were moving about. Each of them heading into
their destination wherever that be however. There were some conversations as
well; though not upon the topics of us. It had me confused however, but a single
thought had stopped that. Reminding me that the Hunter's pack and other canines
had went through here before. 'I guess it was normal for them.' I thought to
myself in conclusion while we continued down the roads.

It
was only a straight path ahead. No intersections were before us or to the
sides. The buildings in Vaster were taller than what we had suspected. Perhaps
cleaner and more hospitality. I would not know for I had not entered or get
into their houses or buildings at once. Perhaps it was of fear or something
else. My head shook in response as I find myself frowning. Unknowingly, I was
moving slower than the other two coyotes whom somehow pulled a bit ahead of me.
Yet their heads were turned towards me, tilted heads in response and concern
about me while I just wave a paw towards them, saying nothing else to follow it
at once. The two coyotes nodded their heads acknowledging it and continued
ahead as I walked following them.

We
were deeper within Vaster. I could not see the white gates behind us at all.
Even if I were to glanced behind me, staring down upon the direction of where
that white gates were too. I frowned. But turned back around. Continuing to
follow the pair of coyotes ahead of me while my eyes were to shift attention
from the buildings, reptiles and other inanimate objects about. Additionally,
it seems to be more busy too when more and more reptiles and canines were
gathered in one large spot. It was quite opened. Huge even perhaps. Crowds had
filled this large space and they were everywhere. Loud conversations were
about. Merging into my ears like different media trying to get my attention. I
closed them out at once; keeping silence while my eyes continued staring ahead.

We
continued walking down the roads. Shifting our attentions towards the
alternatives that were upon our lefts and rights besides us. But they
themselves led into different destinations than the ones that we had wanted to
head forth into. More and more crowds of reptiles and canines were about; each
of them heading in their own different way. For in their minds were different
destinations than the ones that we had in mind. I exhaled a breath and frowned;
my head hanged gazing at the grounds where my feet once walked upon. Did I ever
mention that the grounds below us were hot that my feet were burning with fire?
Me neither however. Despite Wyott complaining about his feet actually.

Continuing
our way, we spotted something at the distance before us. Ahead were the
knights. They seemed to be preoccupied with something as they were facing the
canines before them. Wyott spoke suddenly without looking at either me or
Westli “Seems like those canines are the Hunter's pack and Liverpaws." “What
are they doing here in Vaster?" I questioned, shifting my attention to Wyott
who remained silent for he too does not have an actual answer at all. We
watched them for a moment. Standing around as if they were planning something
crazy. I huffed shaking my head, knowing full well that the Hunter's pack would
do such a thing however.

But
as they stand about; Westli was the first to jump into the fray and landed
behind the knights whom had turned around. Gazing at him. I had wanted to
facepalm however or at least growl at him for such careless. But never did I
had committed to the two and instead, motioned towards Wyott who frowned as he
gaze at me. Nevertheless, joining Westli's side as he crouched down growling
angrily at the knights standing before them. The knights remained were they
were; only two of them turned to face us. As someone from the otherside spoke
towards us; we just ignored them. It was then that Westli rushed out towards
the two knights. Poised to attack them just by biting their chest or at least
the stomach. I stretched out my paw growling at Westli, “They have armor on,
idiot!" He stopped midway and turned towards me. Then back towards the pair of
knights before us before nodding back in return. Upon which the knight just
laugh and rushed at us, sword already drawn.

It
was already the start of the battle and we were in the mists of it however. I
growled, my eyes narrowed piercing upon the pair of enemies standing before us
as my mind rushed in ponderance of what we should be doing. Wyott noted me
standing around idle and charged up front. Joining Westli as he jumped onto the
head of the knight. Pulling off the helmet off his head. In the meanwhile,
Wyott distracted the other knight. Dodging the swings with swift and careful
movements as he kept his eye upon him however. My head shook; ears flattened at
the skull of my head before charging and joining immediately into the heat of
the fight. With the other knight distracted by Wyott, I jumped the other
knight. Raising my feet onto the air, kicking him square onto the stomach. I
heart a grunt following a thud as the helmet fell off from its head.

Westli
had ripped it off from the knight already. Proudly holding it in his mouth,
grinning with his eyes looking onward with pride. I, on the other paw, said
nothing to him. But just rolled my eyes and turned my attention towards Wyott
who seemed to be a bit tired lately from all that around dodging and jumping
over the knight's attack who seemed to be more confident as time ran on. It
would not take long before Wyott is found panting. Yet standing his ground
lately while his eyes stared up towards the knight in turn. Eyes narrowed. The
blade raised above the knight's head, crashing down aiming straight for the
coyote in turn. “Watch out!" I screamed while Westli lowered his head onto the
down's knight head and snapped it to the side. Killing him instantly.

Yet
Wyott was catching onto it however. For a smirk had formed upon his snout. He
jumped back. The blade missed him by a few inches somehow. It was stuck upon
the grounds; never coming out apparently. With the balance tipped onto our
favor, Wyott found himself grinning in response and ran up the blade's surface.
Jumping just before reaching the handle and leaped forward towards the knight
who gasped in shocked. He hit him square onto the chest; hard and concentrated
that it seems like a sound barrier was broken somehow. Me and Westli watched
with interest. A smile formed upon my mouth while Wyott and the knight fell to
the ground. Dust raising and covered the two all together. Before falling onto
the grounds once again.

The
dust had settled. Everything was silent eventually. My heart still beating but
at a slower pace now; I breathed. Exhaling a sigh while Westli smiled, turning
his attention towards me and nodded his head. I acknowledged him with a nod;
long before turning our attention towards the other two knights whom the
Hunter's pack and Liverpaws were fighting about. It was hard to tell who was
winning or not however due to no one becoming tired. Everyone was like busy
bees squirming over one another in a frenzy mating ritual or something like
that. Scratching my neck as I looked away for a moment, red roses flared upon
my cheeks while the other two coyotes turned towards me in response. Heads
tilted to the side while they pondered what thought crossed my mind however. 

But
snapping out from my daze, I ran a few inches forward before hearing someone
spoke out loud that catched my attention. For we turned our attention towards
the source, spotting a dragoness who was pointing ahead. Fear visible upon her
scales as the white paleness ran across. Her wings shivered, tail between her
legs with her claw raised to the horizon. We followed it before nodding at her;
I motioned to Wyott and Westi as the two ran forth. I voiced out towards The
pack and Liverpaws “We are going to go for the one ahead of us." Before
charging off following the two coyotes.

We
raced across the roads. Picking up the pace as the dust behind us rose and fell
from the grounds. Running across the roads, we breathed rapidly while our
hearts raced. Pounding in our chests loud and clear that we perhaps could hear
it in our ears. Yet in the short time of our running, I called out towards
Westli and Wyott. Both of which had turned their heads over to me while I
nudged my head towards the left. Eyes pointing to the rooftop. “Good point."
Responded Westi with a smile, “Got it." Started Wyott nodding as he understood
the plan. “ I just need one of you up there. Not both of you are once!' I
snarled short and immediately at them. The two coyotes nodded their heads
before Wyott jumped onto a nearby trampoline and rose himself towards the surface
of the rooftops above. With him racing fast, leaping off from edges of
buildings after edge, we had loss him seconds following our pursuit. I narrowed
my eyes while Westli slowed down ahead of me. We were silent at least for a
moment while we continued up the road.

The
road we were running on was long and wide. Reptiles and canines that were to
our sides and front of us leaped to the sides. Gasps, shocks and panicked were
upon their faces as we ran by them. It was kind of surprising for them to see
us in pursuit instead of the VPD however to which I had no idea whom were they
about anyway. As I exhaled a sigh from my breathing mouth, thoughts filling and
fading away from my own brain, I fixed my eyes upfront to the horizon and kept
on running. Despite my feet burning up that they felt like fire somehow
however. Westli whom was beside me, did not fare too much either however.as he
grounded his fangs together tightly that I heard some faint grinding closed by.
His eyes were narrowed. But he does seem to be panting at some time. 

As
we moved deeper into the roads, but never getting any sort of closer towards
our targets whom perhaps were a few hours ahead of us and perhaps already
reached their destinations at once. I shouted towards Westli who suddenly
turned towards me. “We need to split up. Cover more ground in case they have
accomplished their mission. We needed them both dead however." “Catch you up
upon the tower. I hear that is their destination." Westli started, “Where is
that?" I questioned, gazing at him suddenly. But he gave no answer. I watched
him for a moment, break into a smile before returning my gaze back up front. As
I do so, Westli halted his movements briefly and sharpened his turn so he was
turned towards the right. He darted through the alternatives roads ahead of
him, disappearing from my sights while I kept on going ahead.

It
was only a few feet ahead of me. For I saw the castle or tower. It was taller
than I had suspected. That my eyes let off a bit of realization and awe towards
such a building. Being taller than the other buildings that surrounded it. It
was also more detailed too. Paints of black and red were to its side; covering
up the black holes that covered the tower at once. My mind instantly went back
into its thoughts; pondering over the remaining knights that remained inside or
upon the entrance of the tower at once. I could not even tell however. But as I
growled, grinding my fangs tighter and together. I picked up the pace; kicking
up a much larger dust storm in my wake as I ran fast and far towards the tower.
'Not much long now.' I thought to myself as I wondered about our reunion
together with Westli and Wyott however.

I
have arrived onto the tower. I stopped immediately and raised my eyes to the
tower itself. There standing by its door was Wyott who was barking at it for
some strange reason. With the other reptiles and canines shifting their
attention towards him, looking onward with concerns and curious looks upon
their faces. They all looked away afterwards when meeting my eyes as I had
remained silent with them, just nodding my head faintly smiling to them before
fixing my attention towards my packmate. I walked to his side, he stopped
barking and turned meeting me. Then immediately, he knocked me onto the ground.
Licking onto my face as he smiled, I mirrored him while he asked “Where is
Westli?" “Headed a different way. Just in case." “Of what?" Wyott questioned.
But I kept quiet and turned my head away from him, towards the door in front of
us while I stirred the conversation topic away from him. “Are the knights
inside there?" “Saw them head right on in. But they never came out however."
“For how long?" I turned back to Westli who frowned as he lifted his eyes to
the skies above, silence lingering onto his snout before he answered back “I do
not know. Half a day? Three hours? Hard to tell." “If it was that long then
surely they had escaped already." “Where to?" “Where I think they are going…" I
trailed with confidently, shifting my attention gradually turning to the right
as I found myself staring at the distance.

Upon
which Wyott looked at me quizzingly. But raised his shoulder and shrugged
afterwards, speaking to me suddenly “Just lead the way then. Surely we should
be able to catch up towards them." “Indeed." I stated looking to him then away
in sequence as we started forth towards that direction however. We ran fast.
Roaring through the roads like some racecars on a speeding track. Knocking down
several reptiles and canines along the way as they tumbled over, head first
onto the dirt below them. Several of their stuff already knocked to the ground
too; scattered upon the flooring. Those that were not in our way, dive towards
the side and slide upon the hard grounds. Burning their scales and fur while
crying out. Chaos overall however with loud and shouting scattered upon the
audience surrounding us. Yet we paid no attention to them and kept on moving.

I
had think we started heading eastward. Towards an dislocated place that only
the reptiles and those canines or species whom lived here knew about. For we
ourselves were clueless as to the direction that we were heading into; but
dived head first straight into it without any form of hesitation on our part
alone. We continued deep east; finally noticing the the buildings were becoming
much lesser than before The audience was not crowded; rathered there are only a
few of them here. All of them lived out onto the streets, staring with silence
lingering onto their mouths. Faces and eyes were judgemental as if we were a
foreigner however. Ignoring them, we continued until we reached the end of
Vaster town where the white gates stands before our very eyes. I found myself
staring at them. Wyott tilted his head to one side; then turned towards me
asking “This you sure were they are right now?" “Where else would they be
then?" I questioned him, confidently shooting his question down while he peered
at me in silence, but stayed like it for a pause while I walked. Breaking our
line as i head forth into the door in front of us.

I
had forgotten to mention that the house was a bit smaller than the other
buildings we had seen before. It was also a different color than the buildings
too. A much more unique color. But as I raised my paw into the air and poised
myself into hitting the surface of the door. I heard a faint shout coming from
behind the door. A short while later had the door opened in front of us as we
were welcomed by whomever was the host here. Yet to our surprise, we had noted
Westli already beat it to us as he was the one opening the door instead of the
host whom was behind him however. As we gazed at Westli then towards the host
in turn, we were speechless. For no words came upon out mouth and our thoughts
were kept secret instead. The host, whom was a doe stared at us before smiling
rather faintly. Her eyes closed opening then afterwards before shaking her
hoove, welcoming us inside. Wyott turned towards me, I nodded my head before
breaking into a most beneficial innocent smile, “Hey thanks for letting us in.
Can we ask you a few questions…?"

Immediately,
I hear the doe confirmed to my question as I found myself grinning in confident
before asking another.
