Coal sighed. He looked at Jupiter and said softly, I'm sorry for everything I've ever done to the light. It's my fault Captain is who she is now. It's my fault Arck died. It's my fault Whisper can't help but turn to her dark side sometimes. It's my fault many of your own pack mates died. It's my fault all of this happened, and I am sorry.

Coal looked Jupiter. You don't know what it felt like. I was hungry for power, I didn't feel any guilt when the light left the eyes of those I killed. I didn't feel sorrow when their eyes begged for a merciful death. I reclined to that plea, I tortured them, Jupiter. I laughed at their pain, their suffering. I'm a bad wolf, Jupiter. Why am I still alive? I should be dead for what I've done. And for one of the first times in his cold life, Coal's eyes prickled with tears. They silently dripped down his ashen black cheeks. Coal didn't look away, he knew that it would do him no good, Jupiter had already seen his tears.

Jupiter half chuckled I do know... And not many of the wolves now this, but there was once a time when my heart lied in a space niether light nor dark. I relied on Scourge to teach me, he took me to worlds I never knew exsisted... Jupiter looked up to the dark sky and his yellow eyes flashed red in fury The dark side of me that you have never seen, and Fiona has only ever witnessed once and she doesnt even remember... A darkness that when not controlled could lead to the deaths of many... He sighed

Coal sighed too, his head hung slightly. The tears were still dripping silently. Then he told Jupiter the worst thing he'd ever done. I had a mate, before Prisim. I had children before the ones I have with Prisim. I killed them all, Jupiter. My mate, her name was Prophecy, I laughed at the look of pure shock, and agony. I laughed at the look of fear in my children's eyes, but when it was done, all the bloodlust had run from me, as though terrified by the one it possessed. And Jupiter, I wept for the lives I'd taken, as I weep now for forgiveness. I asked the spirits for forgiveness, I still do. But I do not believe I deserve that. I should be dead already. I should just let Arck kill me. Or Captain and her soulless crew of rock wolves. My life is over, Jupiter. I have no right to live. I came on this trip because, because, I need to die now. The Shadow's tear. I am to be killed by a shadow, by death himself, perhaps this is my fate. And if it is, I accept it with an open heart.

Jupiter thought this over for a second If that is the worst thing that you have ever done... What is the best? Through our journeys me and my siblings have come across those who speak in riddles... As you have most likly noticed we tend to speak in simular ways, my friend... thier are a few things you should hear... Always save the best for last... and does the end justify the means? Jupiter was silent for a moment Their was once a time when me and my siblings were at each others throats... I was tempted by darkness and I almost took it, but I turned away... Now I walk a path that urges me to show others the way of the light, and you have strayed from the path you were once on, and now... well look around, see who your companions are.

Coal looked up, The best thing? The best thing I've done is accepted forgiveness, accepted the Light, accepted that what I once was, is the past and I should not waste my time regretting what has already been done, for I am just wasting the time that I could be spending with friends. He smiled. A true smile of the Light, not a wicked smile he usually had, but one of kindness, of Light.

Jupiter nodded and smiled Swift was running too quickly, by the time she scented the small group of wolves it was too late. She bareled into Jupiter knocking him into Coal, and landed in a heap on the ground.

Coal fell hard and feared he may have sprained his back right paw, having landed so hard. He felt the breathe get knocked from him and he gasped to get it back.
Ash seemed troubled by the sudden appearance of the two wolves, but relaxed when Ranger spoke of them being friends. He'd seen the joy that had crossed her eyes, then it was replaced by sadness when the she-wolf, Zelda, spoke of the death of this Regal. He felt the same sadness Ranger, and Arck, and Coal felt.
Ranger snarled and then found herself looking into Zelda's maroon red eyes. A surprised expression alighted across the white she-wolf's face. She took a step back. She looked at Zelda then at Swift. She spoke, her voice hoarse, Zelda? Swift? She could scarcely believe what she was seeing. My friends! Ranger exclaimed, but there is one missing, where in the Light's legacy is Regal?
Zelda felt a smile rising. She licked Ranger's nose and said, It has been a long time, dear Ranger. She sighed and looked at the ground when Ranger spoke of Regal. I am sorry, my dear friend, to tell you that, it is as Wave Thorn feared. Poison is now in rule and Regal is dead. It hurts me to say, but it is the truth, I regret to say.
Ranger comforted Zelda with a soft lick to the nose. Zelda, please forgive me, I did not know.
It is not your.... Zelda trailed off as her eyes landed on Arck. A look of shock crossed over her and she whispered, Arck?
Arck smiled and came to stand beside Ranger. It pains me that you and the others that side with the Light thought me dead, but now the truth has to be told, I now longer tread in the realm of the Spirits. I am aggrieved to hear of poor Regal's death. I mourn with you, we all do, even Coal here.
You traitor! screamed Zelda as she jumped at Coal.
Ranger stood between Coal and Zelda. Zelda, old friend, it is not Coal whom we must fear, it is the Shadows and the regrouped red eyes. Coal is on the side of the Light now, do not worry.

Blizzard sat quietly. Swifts eyes were closed she had landed on something soft, when she opened her eyes she saw that she had landed on another wolf. Jupiter pushed Swift off with a scowl

Ranger said, Zelda, Swift, we are on our way to Shadow camp to get a Shandow's tear. You two must go to the camp, if you mention that this little group sent you, I'm sure Fiona will hear what you have to say. Her eyes stared intently on Swift, Is Wave Thorn dead? What about Nightmare and Shock? Oh and Crag? Poison will pay for what's shes done to the Light and our kind.
Ash was completely lost. He would have liked to ask, but decided against it. He wondered who all these wolves were. Crag? Wave Thorn? Nightmare? Shock? What!? Was what he was thinking. He shrugged and just sat and watched Ranger talk to this Zelda and the wolf called Swift.

Swift looked at Jupiter slightly embarrased then turned to Ranger when she started asking questions Yes Wave Thorn is dead. I dont know about Crag, but as for Nightmare and Shock, they are who we were running from. They ambushed us and were trying to kill us but we exscaped. Jupiter turned to Ranger If these wolves, Nightmare and Shock, are trying to kill these two he pointed to Swift and Zelda then we should keep on our toes incase they were followed. After all, we wouldnt want to have any unwelcome visitors while we are at the Shadows camp, now would we?

Ranger nodded at Jupiter's words. Yes of course, she turned to Zelda and Swift, You two should hurry along to camp, Coal and Arck, can you two keep at the back of the line and scent for any strange wolves? When the two nodded and had headed back a ways, Ranger turned to Ash, Blizzard, and Jupiter, We should hurry, in case we are being tracked and Nightmare and Shock wish to make Alliance with the Shadows. She began to walk again.

Jupiter and Blizzard nodded and Jupiters fur began to stand on end his ears folding back his pinwheeled eyes narrowed until only a small speck of black was visable Can you sense that? He reffered to the erie feeling comeing from the Shadows camp, slowly the stench of death and decay wafted around them
Swift watched the group of wolves walk away, wondering who they were. She knew Ranger, Coal, and Arck, but not the others.
