CARLYLES POV
Upon getting to the west sub gate, everywhere was burning. The guard wasn't
lying when he said it was sudden, Cliven the position and condition of everything,
it was indeed a sneak attack. The guards and pack members who were at the
spot at that moment were dead. Only a few number of them survived. Stalls were
destroyed and a few number of children were not left out in the peril
“What the hell is going on? What is this, Alpha Carlyle? Please tend to this... our
kids....our goods.... everything is all gone.” The affected pack members wailed in
my
presence.
“It'll surely be taken care of.” I muttered, leaving Donald and some Gammas to
take care of the damage while I headed toward the direction where the bombs
were thrown from. This time around, it wasn't a joke. I needed raw evidence to
conclude it was the Canthrastras and not a group of rebels pretending to be
them.
“Carl!” Donald held my hand, shaking his head. He was scared of the outcome
and didn’t
"me to head there, but what choice do I have? I'm an Alpha and I mustn't back
down. I shall account for this to my pack members and elders. If I was go do that,
I needed a proper account and not just speculations, especially for the purpose
of those elders who were always against me.
“It's okay, I'll be line. Take care of everyone. Increase the number of guards
around here. The
ed should be taken to the hospital and arrangements should be made for the
dead. You know what to do.” I patted his hand consecutively, assuring him with at
smug smile that everything would be fine.
Heading there, outside my pack borders, I found no one there. Everywhere was
dry and no one was in sight. It felt as though nothing ever happened there, as if
no activity was ever carried out there. Something was wrong somewhere.
Scrutinizing every bit of the surrounding. I checked for clues. After several
search, I couldn't find anyone or anything. They surely take up to their name.
They left a clean trail with no evidence.
Heading back, a falling banner attracted my attention. It was rolling down from
the top of a nearby tree where I stood. It read:
“This is just the beginning. You shall pay for your crimes soon.”
I looked around to see who must have suspended it but I couldn't see any being
despite. using my primal senses. Returning back to my pack, I had so many
thoughts and
worries.

Donald, who was eager for information, hurried to intercept me upon my arrival.
His impatience was very noticeable as he inquired, “Any news?” It was evident
he had been anxiously anticipating my update and arrival.
“Nothing, only this.” I presented the only tangible clue I could find the suspended
banner. Bewilderment showed on his face as he questioned its significance.
“What's the meaning of this?”
“I have no idea. But I sense there's more to this than meets the eyes.” I admitted
with at hint of uncertainty. The air hung heavy with unspoken concerns, hinting at
the web of unknown challenges that awaited us.
“What's your plan?” Donald asked, fully ready for any impending role he would
play. This was our pack at stake here and we're going to guard it by all means.
“First, we need to find something definite, something we can relate to the
Canthrastras before we can alert other packs and beings and get all the possible
help we may need.”
“Right, but how do you plan to do that?"
“With this, it shows that the Canthrastras are ready and prepared for whatever it
is they are planning. This sneak attack wasn't expected by us and with this,” I
raised the banner for him to know what I was talking about.
“...we don’t know when they're going to strike next. We can say it's going to be
later and it should be sooner than expected or vice versa.”
“Which means we have to be fully prepared.”
“Yes. Firstly, I want you to secretly dispatch the batch one Special garrison to the
west gate and the batch two to the east gate. Those are the two weakest gates of
the pack borders. The other gates can hold off till they have reinforcement.”
“Sure, however, I feel like they have a spy among us and they have someone
controlling them,” Donald commented.
“Why do you say that?”
H
Since ancient times, the Canthrastras are known to act boldly and not the way
this was staged. If they're really acting on their own accord, they wouldn't bother
clearing evidence.”
Donald was right. That was just how they behave. They were always ready and
bold. Always ready to go to war without surrender or backing out.

“I've contemplated it as well, and tonight, I'll take action,” I declared with a
resolute
tone.
Donald was perplexed by my response and sought clarification.
i}
“What do you mean?” His uncertainty lingered in the air, prompting the need for
an explanation of my impending actions.
“I'll be heading out,” I whispered to him in a hush tone. “I'm heading to Aridah. I
need to see for myself what's going on there.”
“You could have just sent the guards and messenger. Why are you heading over
there yourself?”
“It's better off that way. I have my reasons,” I said with a tone of finality.

“I understand, Carl. I'll stay back. But be careful out there, okay?”
“You don't have to worry, Donald. I'm going with the Death force!” I whispered to
him.
