Chương 12: Chapter 11
Long after the hunter with the dagger lost his life in the fight, Max was shot below the rib cage. A hunter with long rifle low down the weapon to check on his target. He give Max a snicker after release the shot as it hit the accurate place he aim for. Unfortunately for Max, the bullet of the rifle was also made of silver and it covered with silver dust in which give wolf a burnt effect. Not only that, silver will cause any wound on wolf body longer time for heal.
Max then charge toward the hunter and kill them one by one. He attack their vital spot at the most accurate aim and make sure to not miss anyone there.
"Max, you need to finish him at once. Don't delay the attack, instead aim for his vital spot that will kill him. I can't focus much more and my strength to help is getting weaker. I can't last longer than five minutes anymore."
"I know. It just that he knew every move we make and dodge them at the right time. Dylan you need to stay with me all the time or else we will lost."
Suddenly, the alpha rogue come back to his conscious and jump Max from his back. Max who have a silver dagger scratch the alpha on his shoulder but not deep enough to cause fatal but the wound will take time to heal and it will bleed continuously unless being he receive an immediate treatment.
They keep on wrestle with each other. Taking every chance to take a lead in every move. Make them rolling on the ground. Sometimes it was Max on the top, later the alpha rogue take the lead to stay at the top. It happen again and over again.
After a long time they pound on each other, the alpha rogue sent a sudden kick with all his will and power left on the stomach and sent Max a few feet away. Max hit a huge bark and fall down on the floor. Max scuffle to stand as he saw the alpha rogue runaway leaving the battle ground. He then try to stand on his four feet and run after the alpha rogue.
Unfortunately, Max lost the trace of the alpha rogue under the heavy rain. He wandering around with the hope that he might get to smell the scent leave by the alpha or maybe some foot print or blood drip on the forest floor. It all went in vain as the rain had wash them all.
All these while, Max unconsciously lost his sense of direction and he accidently left the border territory of his kingdom. Max without the help from Dylan, walking away even further into the forest in the midst of rainy day in which starts a few minutes he get attack by the alpha rogue. With their both weak state of body, they have no energy to shift themselves to human body.
Walking mindlessly walk in the wolf form and decide not to shift back to his human form as to wish to get heal faster in the wolf form. Dylan might not get back to his conscious sooner as he feel double the pain he receive. They might easily being the target by other beast exist in the forest if he shift.
Max walks up a hill and hide himself behind a thick bushes between a few big trees with wide barks. Behind the bushes suddenly he smell a sweet smell. A smell similarly to a mix chocolate and vanilla. Two strong smell of sweet smell make him growling. He knew the smell immediately. Max want to wake Dylan and tell him about the happy news. He want to make a move towards the smell and take a look at the owner of the scent. But, lost his conscious and fall heavily on the ground floor with a loud 'thud'. Max fainted cause by many heavy injuries on the body.

When Rico, Andy received a mind-link from Dylan. Both of them was in the middle of having their dinner along with a few off-shift warriors. They received the messages way later than it should be. It is all caused by the injuries on Max body.
Not long after all of them shift to rescue their king, all of them hear a loud 'bang' sound. The sound attract their attention and they deduced it from a rifle used by hunters. They rushed to the sound in which quite far away from the last guard station near the border.
"Sh*t. Damn it. What exactly happen? What with the gun shot? We haven't start on the investigation just yet. And these things happen?"
"Guys, we need to hurry up to the gun shoot area. Our king might be in danger. It seems like it is the wolf hunter. We get no information on how many of them. All I want now is all of us need to protect the king with your life."
About ten minutes rushed to the location, all of them left all of them speechless. There were almost ten dead body on the ground cover with blood. Bleeding from various vital spot. The ground was full with wash up blood as if it was a natural made pond with red colour water.
Rico and Andy anxiously tried to look for Dylan's body. They tried to mind-link him. Tried to search for his scent. Tried to look for any trace leaving the battle area. But all of their effort turns vain. They still hope that Dylan save and sound somewhere.
Unfortunately, luck was not on Max and Dylan's side that day. All the trace of their blood and scent was wash away by the rain. Even the foot print left on the forest floor as all of them turns muddy create small puddle. None of the warriors found their king after a few hours searching for him.
Rico furiously cursing, hit and stamping on the dead bodies and trees to release his anger. He keep blaming himself for letting Dylan go out on his own.
Andy and the rest of the warrior just bow their head in shame as they felt shame and guilt for not guarded the border better. If they felt regret for not protect their king. It was their job to protect them all the time and at all cost.
