The Rumble

Moon felt the warmth of her siblings curled up next to her in a heap.She lay,sucking her mother-wolf’s warm milk.She heard the cries of a brother who was lost in the grass.Her mother-wolf quickly leapt into action to comfort her lost brother.Panic roused as the pups realized that their mother-wolf was gone.Their mother-wolf calmly trotted back with their lost brother and regained her spot to silence the now muffled cries.

“Go away!”,snarled Blade,clearly enraged.”B-but father-dog I just wanted to-”,Moon began.Blade lifted himself off of the ground and faced her,”Go away now!If you hesitate I will make sure that you are never in this pack or in any one else’s eyes ever again!”.”Yes father-dog”,and Moon slinked away to where her father-dog could not see her.

Moon gazed up and asked herself why must her life be so cruel?She sighed and flopped down onto the hard soil.She took in a shadow.A dog shadow.She had immediately recognized the black and white dog.Harp,she thought.”

 

”What is bothering you Moon”,Harp had not hesitated to ask.He lie down next to her.”It’s my father-dog”,mumbled Moon,almost seeming to hold her breath.”Him again!”,he snarled loudly,”you’ll need to face him one day!”,his loud snarl turning into a concerned bark.”I know”,Moon said quietly”but today is not the day”,she turned away from him and sighed.

”I know that”,informed Harp,sorriness was in his voice.Goodnight Harp”,was Moon’s only reply.Moon thought of how free and careless that birds are,how pet dogs and how the life of the two-leggeds was.So free and careless.She became sleepy and quickly closed her eyes.

The Rumble

Panicked barks rose from every corner of the territory.Moon unraveled her eyes to see Dart and four others panicking,her father-dog standing with his tail between his legs,and Harp growling at the mountains.”What’s going on!”,said Moon rising to trot towards Harp.

”It’s the rumble”,he tucked his tail between his legs and gave a noticeable shiver.Moon cocked her head questioningly and looked at the mountains.The mountains have a crack...and it’s coming towards us!She could hear the deep rumbles like the thunder in a storm.She saw all of the animals trying to run away,and the animals who held their ground to protect their territory had only died in their effort.

Moon shivered.Now she understood why everyone was in such a panic.”Attention pack”,Harp looked at them,his tail high.He is not scared anymore,Moon thought,he has a plan.Everyone in the pac stopped their panicked barks and turned to face him.”I have a plan”,he said.And at those words,everyone seemed relieved.”If we stay here,we die,so I’ve decided that we need To move south,the farthest away from the rumble”,Harp said.Everyone moved without hesitation,all except for Blade,who growled low and followed behind the pack.

Moon caught up to Harp and whispered”Thank you Harp”.To which he replied by licking her ear and giving her a look of gratitude.They continued walking.As Moon continued walking she noticed that the ground was deprived of all of the grass.That meant they couldn't hunt.She sighed.CLAMBER!SCREETCH!Moon turned her head to see a dog hanging off the steep cliff edges.Everyone looked.They just stared.Moon noticed her father-dog continuing to walk.

She turned back to the dog.Quail had not noticed that there was a steep edge.Nobody had

 

 

The Rumble

offered to help.Harp gave a look of worry and alarm as he looked,terrified.Without a warning,Moon jumped up to hold her collar.She heaved Quail up.This was one of the times Moon had been glad that Quail had insisted on keeping her collar.Harp and the others looked relieved.The big black dog licked her nose in a way of gratitude.They both took back their spots and continued.

The pack was exhausted.Everyone’s tongue was hanging out.Beetle was whimpering now.He was not excited to go on this “journey” anymore.His mother-dog Shift picked him up.Limp did the same to get picked up by his father-dog.Grunt mumbled under his breath.

Moon assumed he was saying “Copycats”and continued walking.Grunt was whimpering a few seconds later and was picked up by Steep.They continued until a lake came into sight.The dogs ran up to the lake.The pups were put down to drink.They decided to rest.

Moon still could not see her father-dog anymore.Moon thought “He’ll mark his scent for us
