Chapter 13: The Breakup
P.o.V. Patrick/Colm
When they made it out of the Alpha's meeting room, Patrick was ready to be rid of Moira. He was sure she planned on letting him go first so that he looked like he hadn't thought anything through. She probably just did it because they were in front of, not only their Alpha and Beta, but the pack's closest ally's leaders as well. Alpha Gerald actually seemed offended by the idea until Moira talked him around.
"She just followed up where you left off. There didn't seem to be any maliciousness on her part. And we got what we wanted in the end so the method wasn't important," Colm voiced calmly from deep in Patrick's mind where he had retreated after they fought in the morning.
Patrick had woken up that morning in a worse mood than he was in after the ceremony. He wanted to confront Moi

P.o.V. Narrator True to his word, Alpha Darren spoke with Warrior Commander Alexi about the idea of retired warriors overseeing afternoon practices for the young wolves. Commander Alexi approved, provided he was able to invite particular wolves and work out the schedule. After they had settled the matter, Commander Alexi reached out to several of the more skilled and respected former warriors who had experience with training recruits and was ready to announce the available practices the next morning. As the young wolves took their places, he noticed that Moira and Patrick's groups were avoiding each other. He had heard from one of the patrols that was leaving the training area the previous afternoon that the Alpha's children had a loud and heated fight and the young Alpha had stormed off into the forest. The evening patrols kept tabs on her and her c

P.o.V. Moira/TrajanThe sunlight cut through the curtains Moira had left partially open to act as an extra alarm as soon as it cleared the treeline. She stirred almost immediately before launching forcefully from the bed. Their eyes were entirely black and darted quickly around the room before finally settling on the clothes laid out on the desk. They hurried over and dressed before rushing into the bathroom. Not five minutes later, hair bound tightly into a braid, they hurried out of the door into the hallway.Their progress through the house was as silent as possible in the old building. Squeaky floorboards were avoided and the steps were taken at a careful pace with an occasional skipped step to avoid the loudest.The downstairs window shades were still shut, casting a gloom across the entire floor

P.o.V.Moira/Trajan"Today... you will fight me."These words dropped like lead weights into Moira and Trajan's brain. Moira began immediately trying to recall any instance of seeing Captain Daryl fight or hearing anything about how strategists operated. Trajan was running through everything they learned and making adjustments to plan for speed and adaptivity. "Chaotic," he said. "We need to be unpredictable."But Captain Daryl didn't pause long to let them take in this news. He continued, after noting each of their reactions to the announcement, "I will act entirely defensively and use only things you have been shown in your training class with Commander Alexi. Points are awarded as follows: Strikes to body - 5

P.o.V. Alpha Darren/TybrisWatching Moira and Trajan fight was a proud moment for Darren and Tybris. The focused look on her.... their... face was new but promising. He could see the analysis in their eyes as they watched everyone else fight. Apparently Daryl had as well. He changed the order up to make it more challenging. Didn't seem to phase Moira and Trajan in the least."They fought hard. And landed some good hits. Daryl will be feeling those," said Tybris as Moira's first round finished. "They were able to fake him out with that kick. Pretty impressive feat for a trainee with only a few months of training," he continued full of pride.That warm glow only lasted a few moments as Patrick stood back up to take his second round. His tardiness embarrassed Alpha Darren to the core. Even if Patrick didn't wa

P.o.V Moira/Trajan"What do we say?" Trajan asked moira in a stunned voice."I'm not sure. But.... he's right... I think?" replied Moira slowly."Don't ask me. I'm in the same boat you are here. He's expecting an answer. Why does our chest hurt? Why are we crying?""That's me. It's because we're feeling emotional at him showing this support. Like the happy feeling I get when he and Tybris look proud of us. Hold on one second we need to say something."
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 19: Teeth and Claws
P.o.V. NarratorThe day of the first test ended and left everyone involved with much to think about.Moira and Trajan struggled to focus through afternoon practice with the elders. Elder Loc, who trained with humans in Hung Gar Kung Fu, helped them focus on putting more power and coordination into a fast series of attacks. While they'd managed to catch Captain Daryl with a few of their jabs, in a real fight they would have done little damage and Moira and Trajan would have gotten worn out well before Captain Daryl. They decided against telling their friends about the discussion with Alpha Darren and ate dinner quickly after practice. Finally through with the day, they collapsed in bed utterly exhausted physically but still brimming with energy and excitement to explore their capabilities and learn more about the powers their dad had told them about.

P.o.V ColmColm hoped the week of training in wolf form would have been a release, a chance for him and Patrick to make amends and strengthen their bond. But no. The entire week was Patrick ignoring training and then shutting him up in the back of their mind as soon as he regained control. Colm begged, bargained, and threatened for the chance to go to the extra practices with the elders, but Patrick would not allow it.Colm's mind was settled on simply failing whatever tests they faced since he could not be treated any worse. Patrick had found a way to mute him when he tried to talk about anything Patrick didn't like. Spending hours and hours locked inside their body, unable to communicate or act. Being let out only for mandatory time-frames and immediately shut back in when they were over. Colm wanted to run in the woods and feel the uneven earth unde

P.o.V Captain Marta/AerieCaptain Marta stretched leisurely as she prepared for the test. She and Leftenant Adrian were to be the final part of the challengers the young wolves had to get by to complete the first test successfully.Commander Alexi had been rather brilliant in his planning. Each of the young wolves had to run through a three stage gauntlet. Each section was a hundred yards and had to be crossed in five minutes. The first stage was a mock town with a car and trash cans and other typical street things scattered through the narrow connecting alleys that made it a bit of a maze. There they would meet a first year recruit also in wolf form whose job it was to keep them from leaving. The second section was a muddy mess with a few fake bushes and some logs and things. This was manned by a full warrior in human form to impede their progress. Th
