Sorry for the long delay. Unforeseen roadblocks have popped up here and there. I will put more at the end but for now, Enjoy

Eve skidded to a stop in front of a still Winston. She put her head to his chest and listened. Nothing.

"Come on Honey breath!" Eve yelled in a very upset tone.

Some where most likely in another dimension

Winston woke in a black void. There was a light at the far end and a sound that sounded like humming. The light and the sound drew m closer, Just then he herd Eve but she sounded so far off and he could not make out what was was said.

Winston was standing looking at the light and back towards the way Eves voice came from. As he was trying to pice together was what happening a voice boomed thorough the void.

"Winston it has been a long time, we weren't expecting you back yet."

Winston jumped at the sound.

"who's there" Winston spoke his voice showed that he was worried

Just then a wolf walked out of the shadow's, Winston's jaw dropped when he saw the wolf.

"Don't tell me you forgot what your brother looks like." spoke the unknown wolf.

"Herald I thought that you were dead." Winston spoke

"Winston I hate to tell you this but you are to." Herald spoke with guilt on his voice.

The memories started flowing back, The northern pack the fight and before he blacked out up north he thought he saw Humphrey.

"Yes that was Humphrey, he tried to save you Winston, also your daughter miss carried."

"Which one, Kate?." Winston asked on the verge of tears

Herald simple shook he head yes.

A tear rolled down Winston's muzzle.

"It happens Winston, there fate was decided before they we conceived. Your fate was decided to and that time is not now but you have a choice, come with me I need to show you something.

Back to Eve

Eve was laying down next to the body of Winston crying softly in to his fur. Humphrey knowing Eve would not want to be seen like this net every one back to their day and told them he would address them later. Humphrey Lilly did not know what had happened since she and Garth had made a den by the river that originally separated the two packs. Humphrey walked out to the front ledge and threw his head back and howled a long mournful howl that notified that a pack member had passed, it also severed to notify Lilly that she needed to come to the alphas den.

When Humphrey finished he went back and laid next to the still unconscious Kate.

About 15 minuets later Lilly and Garth jogged in to the den. Lilly some what out of breath tried to speak but was replaced by tears when saw the body of Winston with Eve crying in to he fur. Lilly slowly walked over and joined her mother in mourning.

As Lilly joined her mother Garth walked over towards Humphrey who was getting up.

"I see Winston didn't make it." Garth stated knowing a great leader had passed.

Humphrey just slowly shook his head yes.

Winston

Winston didn't know what was happening he felt like he was falling but there was no wind. Winston closed his eyes and heard a bird chirp. Winston opened his eyes and saw that he was standing in a grassy meadow and that Herald was standing next to him. Winston then saw his father appear from the tree line, along with passed friends and family.

"This is heaven Winston" Herald spoke "Your old friends and family are here."

Winston couldn't believe it. Friends from times past where there. Winston spent a hour catching up

"You must say goodby for now Winston but you will be back." When Herald Finished Every thing went black and Winston had the falling feeling. When he stopped he looked around and saw that he was in his den, but in the corner was Eve, Lilly, And Kate who had woken and crawled over to Winston's body.

Winston had tears in his eyes seeing his family like this. Kate looked as if she would die of a broken heart from the both the losses of her pups and Father.

"This is the Choice Winston, You can go back to the living since it was not your time, or you could chose to make it your time and be with your old friends and family. The choice is yours. You have until the bury your body, Or the choice will be made for you."

When Herald finished he disappeared and Winston was left in a black void.

Present world

Both Humphrey and Garth ran the west side of the pack so the head Alphas could grieve. The pack was told the news and the rest of the day became overcast and it began to rain.

Humphrey was sitting by himself atop the howling rock.

Humphrey let a few tears roll down his muzzle.

Winston had been the closest thing to a father that Humphrey could remember.

Kate silently walked up behind Humphrey and took a seat next to him. She let her head rest on his should as she sobbed.

"I'am sorry Kate, For everything your father, the pups. If I had been faster I might of be able to save him." Humphrey hung is head is shame.

"It's not your fault. When its time its time." Kate replied barley lifting her head from his shoulder.

Winston sat and thought for what seemed like hours. He finally made his decision.

Eve sat curled up next to Winston's now cold body. She had her head resting on his back like they had done so many times before, But this time he did not move.

Eve was alone, Kate was with Humphrey and Lilly had gone to see Garth and cry some more.

Eve was going through memory's of Winston and her.

Flash back

Eve was swimming in a small lake when she felt some one looking at her. Eve had was ticked that some pervert was watching her take a bath, Eve wanted to kill who ever it was.

"I know your watching so come out NOW!" Eve yelled.

Winston stepped from behind a rock.

Eve was stuck starring at the handsome male Wolf before her.

"I'am sorry, It's just that you are the hottest Alpha in the pack, I cant keep my eyes off of you. Winston replied ashamed.

Eve broke from the trance and spoke.

"It's ok. You want to swim with me."

Winston excitedly shook his head yes and ran into the water with Eve.

"By the way the Names Eve"

"Winston"

End of Flash back

Eve was almost asleep when she heard it.

"Thump"

Eve looked around nothing.

She heard it again.

"Thump, Thump."

Eve looked down at Winston just as she heard the noise and saw he chest move.

Eve quickly hugged Winston as he came to.

"I thought I had lost you" Eve wept tears of joy into his fur.

"I wont leave until I get to say goodby" Winston said returning the hug.

"Just never leave me like that again"

Lilly, Garth, Kate , And Humphrey wall walked in to the den about the same time and saw Winston alive.

The rest of the night was a blur as the group cried with joy that there leader was still alive. Even Garth shed a tear.

OK I know it was short, But it is over thousand words, I will not post a chapter under thousand unless it is a preview.

And the road blocks I talked about at the begging.

1. I lost motivation

2. We had a guy try to brack in to our house at about 9 pm. "He ran when he heard the word Gun."

3. It is spring going into summer. Being on a farm that means that. There is tractors and hay equipment that need fixing up. Animals that need pens rebuilt/built and other various chorus.

Depending on how this chapter does deends on how well I am motivated to write the next. Also I should be realsing the first real chapter to my story forgotten.
