It had been raining now, for three days straight.  Azura had not awaken yet, but Ty slept with her every night.  She was placed in her room and James visited her everyday to check the stones.  Still a faint blue the stones remained.  She had healed herself on the first night, but Regina suggested that it must have taken a grand amount of energy to bring the land back to life and so she might just need extra rest.  Ty tried to keep himself busy by going out with the Hunters or taking care of pack business, but when he laid down with her at night, he could hear her steady heartbeat and serene breathing.  It calmed him somewhat to think his mother was most likely correct and Azura was just resting, but

It was a morning like any other.  Regina was having her morning run when something repulsive invaded her nostrils.  “Yuck,” Regina said out loud as she looked around her to see where the smell was coming from.  She assumed it was a dead animal or skunk and headed back to the house for a bath.  She turned on the furnace and got the water going, when again she smelled the horrific scent again.  “Ugh!” she shouted as she saw the tub filled with dirty green water.  She got dressed and headed to the lake.  When she arrived, she saw dead fish floating in the water and a bunch of blackened green algae covering the surface.

The next morning, Azura felt like going for a walk.  She had been very sedentary lately and felt almost claustrophobic being in the house all day.  It was still very early and Ty had not yet left for pack duties.  Azura looked over to his naked body and wrapped her arm around his bare chest.  She planted a few kisses on his cheek when he stirred slightly, “hmm..my love…you’re ready for round four already?”  He spoke with out opening his eyes which made Azura giggle.  “No silly, I was going to ask if you wanted to on a walk with me this morning,” she whispered into his ear.  “Hmm…you should stay off your

“Please!  I didn’t do anything!” Logan yelled from the jail cell.  “Let me out!” he had been at it for hours.  The door to the hall way opens and Regina walks in.  “You should be thankful Ty didn’t rip your throat out,” she says as she holds her head high.  “You put this pack at a great risk.  Poisoning our water supply and destroying the harvest before winter.  If it weren’t for Azura’s idea of foraging, we surely would’ve starved,” she continues as Logan wails.  “But I didn’t do anything!” he yells.

Azura woke to the ruffling of paper.  She jerked up, sitting up in bed and looked from side to side at the cluttered floor.  “TK?” Azura called.  No answer.  She whipped the sheets away and stepped onto the floor, tiptoeing around the toys and clothing strewn about the carpet.  She heard more ruffling of paper coming from the open door of the room.  She walked out into the hallway and followed the noise to Ty’s old room.  Ty had decided to move into Azura’s room since she enjoyed the view of the lake so much and Ty’s old room had been converted to TK’s nursery and eventually his room, although he had yet to actually s
