Axel ran back and saw Raine running back."Queen!"

Raine was silent."Stay back... I might be haunted by ghosts...."

"How can you be haunted already? I'm already spooked out about the whispers..." I said, walking with her.

"You sure you heard whispers? Those might be shadow wolfs..." Raine was scared.

"They can't be. I'm going back, and Blaze is going with me!" I yelled, grabbing his paw and ran off into the forest. "Stay here!"

As we entered back into the forest, I looked around. Blaze walked along, looking around not afraid. He sighed."What now?"

"I heard whispers..."

"Blaze..... and you brought company?" A whisper said, laughing."Weak."

"What type of whisper- what are you?" Blaze yelled, blowing smoke.

"Clyde told us all about you, Blaze. He wants the throne.. hand it over or we call him up and settle this." Another whisper called out.

I looked around."No wonder I can't see these wolfs..."

"But I can." Blaze looked around and saw two wolfs, smiling."Hey!"

The two wolfs stared at him and walked out. One had blue eyeshadow and the other had purple. They looked like grey wolfs to me and their tails were pretty cool. They both walked out. One wolf came up to him."Remember us, Blaze?"

Blaze gasped, then took a step back."No....."

"What the?" I looked at the two and held my sword up to them." Who are you, and what do you want with Blaze?"

One wolf looked at me."Nice sword, can I kill you with it!?" She grabbed the sword and yanked it from my mouth, making a few my teeth bleed, then laughed."Hey! Give that back."

"Finders, keepers, weakling." The other wolf growled at him.

Blaze growled back."Who are you, and what do you want?"

"I'm Kiri, this is Kara. We're sisters, and we're taking back the throne!" Kiri growled, taking a step forward.

Blaze thought."Wait, taking my throne- you're working for Clyde, aren't you?"

"Right you are, Blaze. Clyde wants the throne, so give it. It's him or us!" Kara held the sword and held it around my neck, gasping for air.

"Axel!" Blaze ran, but Kiri ran behind him and scratch his bottom, making him fall on the grass."What's the point? We know what you did to Moonlight that made her run away from you." She put a paw on Blaze's neck.

"What?" I said, trying to break free from the sword. I bit her nose and grabbed my sword and sliced her cheek, revealing a scar. I gasped.

Kara gasped, then tackled me down, and growled, showing blood."I've killed several wolfs in your fire kingdom and in my own, so don't make me want to kill your queen!"

"She's being haunted!" I yelled at her.

"She never told me-AH!" Blaze looked up and saw more wolfs, and Clyde appeared."My my my, you found your daughters." He smiled, backing up.

Blaze stood and saw many wolfs surrounding him. "You're so funny.. what is this? Some type of set-up?"

Clyde laughed, then growled."It's really the throne or death! You choose!"

Blaze thought."Try and take it from me, then."

"With pleasure. Kiri, hold Axel down!" Clyde growled, then tackled Blaze. Blaze growled, then bit his fur coat, and smiled. His eyes turn black."Tasty, eh?"

"Grah! GIVE ME THE THRONE!" His eyes turned red and growled louder, then ran but disappeared behind and scratched him, making a mark, then looked back. Blaze looked at him, then looked down as he was dripping blood from his body a bit, then put his paw close to his body."Blood?"

Wolfs gasped, and the twins smiled and showed their teeth.

Clyde looked at him, seeing the blood and grinned with joy."I thought you were stronger than me, blaze?" He looked at his claws, licking off the blood.

Blaze stood, breathing."I am!" He ran and scratched him. Clyde gasped, then smiled as Blaze saw wolfs attacking him. They kicked him and scratched him up, then walked away. Clyde walked forward, looking at him and put a paw on him."Pathetic wolf. And you say you're king?"

Every wolf gathered around, smiling evilly.

Blaze looked back at me, as I gasped."Blaze, no!"

He smiled, then coughed."I'll be fine, Axel."

"You're not fine, please stay with me!" I yelled, crying and shed a tear.

Clyde looked sad, then helped Blaze up."Any last words to your fellow friend?" He asked as Blaze walked over to me.

"Kid, I want you to know, you have been a nice wolf to me, and-"

A swoosh ran through and Blaze gasped, his fur bled, and fell to the ground. Clyde stood, holding the bloody sword in his mouth, then dropped it."Finally, he's dead. The throne is mine!"

Every wolf smiled and celebrated, except me. Kiri let me go, and I growled at them all."Blaze was my friend, and he was the king before any of you were here!"

Clyde walked forward."Oh really? How would you know, you don't know anything about him."

"But I do know that he won't let me down." My eyes felt a blur, which then turned red, and ran up to him and slashed him with my claw, looking at Blaze.

Blaze gasped, then tried to get up. He stared at me and gasped."Axel."

I looked at him, and smiled."Blaze." I hugged him.

He smiled and looked behind him, seeing Clyde running towards me and used his claw and scratched my fur. I felt as the ground hit me like a fast car, and I looked up and saw him growling at me."Quit trying."

Blaze growled and looked at Clyde."Lay off of him, I said!" He held his head up, as his eyes turn black and his body turned black, and howled. He charged at Clyde, slashing him with his deadly sword.

Clyde looked back and got knocked into a tree. Blaze dissappeared and ran down the tree, slashing his eye. He then growled."You shall face death itself, when the time comes."

"You are nothing to me, but the throne is forever mine now." Clyde said, gripping his paw, and his eye healed fast. He smiled, looking at Kiri and Kara, who held Axel down."Kill him."

"NO!" I looked at him as Kiri and Kara dissappeared. They both appeared behind Clyde, one holding a sword and the other growled. Kara smiled and slashed her sword at Blaze, and he fell."Please, don't do this."

"It's our job to kill, Blaze. You should've listen to him." Kara pointed her sword at him, and Clyde and Kara both walked up. Kiri held his paws down and Kara backed up. Clyde looked at him and smiled."I'm the king now, so bow or die!"

"W-who said y-you w-were?" Blaze asked, looking at them all. He tried to disappear, but it was too late.
