I walked back towards the fire realm and looked for the queen. "Raine."

Queen Raine walked forward and smiled."Axel?"

"I heard from Tasha saying what moonlight started is the question. Do you perhaps you know about this?"

Raine looked confused."What makes you think I'm involved in this? You heard her, she killed Moonlight. For who knows what, other than besides becoming the next queen." She sat next to me, smiling.

I looked at her."But what if she knows and isn't telling the truth? What if... every wolf isn't telling their side of the story? Of what really happened to Moonlight!" I growled at her, walking towards her.

Raine calmed me down."Easy there, Axel. We all have our stories, which we will and not share at the moment. Anyway, you should go, I have stuff to do?"

"Like what, Raine? Other than sitting around and figure out more from Moonlight? With Blaze? What if you're not telling the truth, and possibly lying to me?!"

"Go, Axel. Please." Raine sighed, walking to her throne.

I sighed and walked out, not looking back. What if she's lying to me? On everything, she said about Moonlight? I thought as I walked.

Raine sighed and started to cry a little.

Blaze looked at her and walked out, putting a paw on her shoulder."It's going to be fine, queen."

"No, it's not ok. I'm lying to him, besides, what will happen if I have to come clean? About everything?" Raine looked into Blaze's eyes, as tears were flowing.

"You will have to come clean, the truth must come out at some point. Don't worry, soon as we keep this up, it's over." He said, putting his head on her shoulder.

"B-blaze?" Raine asked.

"Y-yes?" Blaze listened, looking into her eyes.

She put her head against his, but stopped." No, this can't work out right."

"What do you mean?" Blaze asked, walking to the doors.

"Being with a wolf, that has his own clan, and now you want to say the truth will come out? Is this what you wanted, Blaze? Is this what you ever desired most about Moonlight..."

"Moonlight was all I ever cared for! I-it wasn't her fault she was killed by another wolf- an ice wolf, and you heard Tasha herself, she admitted the truth. She killed Moonlight herself, without no help!"

"Or maybe the fact that you'd helped her! What about it, Blaze? Am I not the only one lying?" Raine yelled.

"W-we all lie, Raine. It's better for us-you, it's better for you to come to a conclusion that Tasha killed her. No evidence, but she told the truth, didn't she, Raine?" Blaze turned to the doors.

Raine sighed." No wonder you made that clan.... that evil clan who wants to rule over my kingdom...."

"What Moonlight started herself." Blaze spoke."What she did, lying to others, and what happened to them? They died, Raine. Died, because of Moonlight. "

"How do you know this, Blaze?" Raine shed tears."How do you know so much about her?"

"B-because she had her trust in me, alright?" Blaze sighed to himself, walking out the door."And one more thing, ask Moonlight herself."

"How am I supposed to ask her if she's dead?" Raine asked.

"Exactly," Blaze said, in a sarcastic tone, and ran off.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I walked along and waved hi to many wolfs until I bumped into a wolf, who was running. I looked behind me and saw nothing, and thought who that wolf was. I decided to follow the wolf.

I noticed the wolf was heading into the dark forest, so I had to venture through to retrieve the wolf and bring it back. I lost the trail of where the wolf went but heard an unexpected voice behind me."Axel."

I turned around and looked shocked."Moonlight?"

She smiled, and laughed."Silly, it's your sister."

"Yea, no dip." I said, looking at her."Are you even real?" I asked.

"Well, would I look real?" Moonlight asked, walking around me."Why did you come here, anyway?"

"Aren't you dead? Whatever you started yourself, it all came back to haunt you. And now you end up dead!"

"How would you know yourself, Axel? Did Raine lied to you again?" Moonlight asked in a sweet tone, then rolled her eyes at me.

"You don't even know if she lied to me or not, and I'm trying to find out what you started that caused you to die by an ice wolf," I yelled, putting my claws on her.

"I didn't die by an ice wolf-" Moonlight gasped, shutting her mouth.

Clyde and Tasha both walked forward to me, each walking through trees, both smiling at each other. Tasha ran up to me and pinned me down. Moonlight gasped.

"What's the deal now, Tasha?" I asked, looking at her.

"There is no deal, Axel. You seemed to have told on me, so I'm returning the favor." She growled and her eyes turned black.

Blaze jumped and growled back at her."Best leave him alone, don't want the queen to hear about this, do you?" He said, helping me up.

Clyde and Tasha both sighed. Tasha disappeared, while Clyde stayed."Mama's boy, I see?" He laughed.

Blaze put his paw up and showed his claws, and put them close to his neck."Say that again, and you're going to end up like moonlight." He growled as he bit him on the neck, and he fell back.

Blaze stood up and I stood up and faced Clyde. Blaze growled."This isn't over Clyde if you want to rule over my clan..."

"Is that a challenge I hear?" Clyde snickered." I would love to rule your clan."

"That won't happen," I spoke.

"Who asked you, newbie. Stay out of this." Clyde slashes his claw at me, as I fell back.

"Lay off him, go live your life," Blaze said, as he pushed his paw out of the way. Clyde got up, and smiled, vanishing away.

Blaze sighed and continued to walk, as I rushed up to him."Hey Blaze... thanks for the help back there, but why does he want to rule over your clan?" I asked.

Blaze turned and face me."Axel, you know that won't happen, alright? Go back home and tell Raine I'll see her in the morning." He said to me as I ran back.

Blaze sat down beside a gravestone, and stared."What did Moonlight ever done to me?"

Tasha looked at him, and noticed she was in trouble."Blaze!"

He turned around and saw more shadow wolfs surrounding him. Clyde walked from behind, laughing."Poor blaze, lying to his fellow friend. The deal's up, kid. Hand over the throne."

"The throne isn't yours, Clyde. I'm stronger than you." Blaze growled, as his tail split in two and held an axe in his jaw.

Clyde smiled."Or are you?" He growled back, as his eyes turned red and held a sword in his jaw.

Blaze gasped."How? Any wolf has never done that before..."

"Well, only the best hunting wolfs would've deserved this!" Clyde slashed his sword at him, but he blocked it."Give up already!"

Blaze used his axe and sliced a piece of fur off. He then charged at him. Clyde smiled, then vanished, rushing into wolfs. Blaze looked around, and used smoke to blast the wolfs."I'm not trying to hurt you, Clyde."

Clyde stopped, then fell."Yea, don't we all?"

Raine gasped and ran."Blaze!" She saw him and the wolfs."Oh no...."

Blaze looked up at her."Queen... they're stronger than me...." He fainted.

Raine blew fire from her mouth and picked up blaze and ran back to the fire realm.

I noticed the queen was running back and dropped something."What happened?"

Raine sighed." Blaze was attacked by Clyde." She put leaves on his scar and he growled in pain.

I thought."What about that ice wolf that wandered into his home?" I asked, thinking.

"That ice wolf... we don't know anything yet, but it belongs to the ice kingdom." Raine explained, walking to her throne."Nobody has ventured there before."

"What about me? I can face the cold." I said, excited. Blaze looked at me and shook his head."I don't think he's ready.."

"I am ready!" I yelled, blowing smoke and fire at him, but he blocked it. He smiled and nodded his head.

Raine smiled."Go, we can reach you out with this." She gave me a tracker and put it on my waist."Find that ice wolf, tell Caesar greetings, and return home." She commanded, opening the doors.

"Wait, who's Caesar?"

"The ice king. Figure he'd know anything about Moonlight than anyone here." Raine smiled, opening the doors, as the cold wind blew inside, making me shiver."The ice kingdom sure is cold these days, now that it's their winter season."

"Winter season?" I asked, confused.

"Every month, the ice kingdom holds a winter feast for all the kingdoms, except the shadow realm."

"Why them? Blaze is their leader, they can let him in, right?"

"They can let him in, but they have to consume his evil powers," Raine explained, looking at him.

Someone knocked on the door."Enter."

"You lied to me, queen." A voice said from all over the room. We all looked around, but Blaze went silent.

"Blaze?" I looked at him and waved a paw at him.

Raine looked back and gasped. She saw a shadow behind him and smiled."Queen."

I saw Raine."What's going on?"

Raine fell to the ground."Help him before-"

"Before everyone dies?" Blaze smiled, and his eyes turned black. He summoned a sword and held it.

I looked at him."Blaze, what's wrong with you?"

"The lies she told us, what made her die. Her soul was forgiven, but not mine." He smiled.

Raine looked at me."Is this a riddle?"

"Wait... these riddles should be able to connect to the death of moonlight," I said. "Say, what happened to moonlight before she died, you spirit?"

"Before the murder, secrets were spread. Solve the mystery, it won't end." Blaze recited, then turned to normal.

"Wait, so Moonlight's murder won't end?" I asked.

"Well, Tasha did confess to the murder, but her soul was forgiven, but not his?" Raine thought."Is she talking about Blaze?"

"Only one way to find out," I said, as I walked to the forest. Raine followed.

I walked and thought of moonlight."She can't be talking about Blaze, what did he do?"

Blaze and Clyde were talking."What did you do, Blaze? Moonlight was a sweet wolf."

"Well, what do you want me to do? Tasha already told her confession, so who else was she talking about?" Blaze asked.

"Well, it certainly isn't me, so probably you..." Clyde assured, backing up.

"I never did anything to her, explain what I did!" Blaze yelled.

"Well..." Clyde looked around and heard something."Were being watched.."

"How do you know?"

I walked out with Raine."I know you did something to my sister, so spill!" I growled, tackling him.

"Woah, chill out Axel." Blaze stepped back.

I growled."No, your lying to me blaze. If you're involved in this, explain."

"I cant. They told me not to tell." Blaze sighed, walking away.

Raine walked over."They?"

"Some... wolf from the ice kingdom. Told me not to tell anyone." Blaze spoke.

He walked away, leaving me and Raine. I walked back to the fire realm."Queen?"

"I'm coming," Raine said, walking back. She looked around but heard more whispers.

"Clyde will kill you....."

Raine looked around, and looked for the sounds."Show yourself. I'm not afraid of you."

Something slid across from her and realized it was Yuri. She gasped, shedding tears."Yuri...." She cried and ran, but something trapped her."Hey! Let me go!"

Shadows began to circle her and Raine blew fire.

But the fire disappeared.

"Clyde, if you're doing this.." She looked up and saw a little boy hanging from a rope, and thought. "How did a boy end up there?"

Two shadows were laughing.

Raine looked behind her."If only my daughters were here for me, I wouldn't be here alone." She sighed.

The shadows ran through her, and she blew fire and blew the shadows away and ran.

As the queen ran back to her home, the two shadows laughed and walked out from the darkness."Scaredy-cat!" One wolf laughed.

"Quit it, we must do what Blaze requested us." The other wolf said.

"You mean Clyde? He told us to kill him."

"Exactly. Wait til Blaze ends up suffering for what he did to Moonlight."

"What exactly did he do to her, anyway?"

"Tasha was involved, but he took her out here and showed her a light show, but he realized the shadows ruined the show, which made him turn into a physco and put his claw to her neck, about to kill her, but she saw something bigger and evil inside him, so she ran away."

"Oh. What about Clyde, isn't he running for the throne?"

"That's when we come in. We have to kill Blaze so we can get Clyde to be king of shadow realm."

"But I heard he has a partner.... name's Axel."

"Sounds like a tough one, but we'll take him down, whether he's alive or dead, we're unstoppable to be beat."

The two wolfs laughed, then dissappeared.
