Glacier's POV:

It was the next morning. I heard Button bark in excitement as I got out the shower. I felt very worried about Elsa. She hadn't come out of her coma yet.

"Come, Shelby girl!" Came Scarlet's excited voice.

Then barks hit my ears. Aww! Shelby was back!

"Aww," came Anna and Raven's voices. "Shelby's back!"

I wrapped my hair in a towel and put my uniform on. I hated the white shirts and tie that we had to wear. I wished I was one of the college students! They were allowed to wear whatever they wanted apart from revealing clothes like crop tops!

***

Soon, I was in my room. Shelby sat at my feet as I gently hugged her.

"You poor thing, girl!" I whispered. "But you were brave!"

Shelby nuzzled me with her nose. I couldn't help but pet her long fur. Then I noticed that some of her coat was missing. I thought you weren't meant to shave huskies!

"I'm sure it will grow back!" I told the husky as I gently petted her shaved area. "They shouldn't have shot you!"

Shelby whimpered. Then Button came up and sat there.

"Hey, Button!" I said managing to find the bigger dog. "You are brave, too!"

Scarlet giggled as she came into the room.

"Both dogs are," she said. "Why? Was there jealousy?"

I nodded, smiling. "Button doesn't want Shelby to be the only one!"

"We got someone downstairs to see you," said Scarlet. "She only got back this morning. She may be a bit drugged though."

"Why?" I asked, feeling worried.

"I'm sure it's nothing bad," said Scarlet. "Just making sure that she gets over what she went through yesterday!"

I nodded. I hoped it was just that! Nothing else.

"Glacie," came the excited voice of my twin.

She ran to me and hugged me tight.

"Er ... can't breathe?" I gasped.

"Oh, sorry!" Alaska let me go and helped me to  a chair.

"Is everything okay?" I asked her as she sat beside me. "How's Els?"

"Still not awake," sighed my twin. "They tried to wake her up when I left this morning with Arianna. But nothing."

She noticed my expression and hugged me with one arm.

"Hey," she said. "I'm sure Elsa will wake up soon! Dad is with her 24-7. She's in the right care. She will be okay!"

"What about you?" I asked. "You seem to be yourself."

"I didn't get it bad," said Alaska. "Just two bullets and one browse from Emily!"

"She hurt you?" I asked.

"Yeah," said Alaska. "Not as bad as what Diana did to Elsa."

"How bad was it?" I asked.

"Baring in mind that it was meant to be me that would receive it," said my twin thoughtfully. "I kind of feel bad for her. It sent her flying towards the pool! By some mirrical, she managed to stop herself. She's braver than me, Glace! I couldn't win against them alone!"

"We did warn you not to go out there," I said.

"Yes," said Anna and Raven as they came into the kitchen and sat opposite us. "But you didn't listen!"

"Girls," I said. "No one is to blame here. Alaska likes helping people. But sometimes it's a bit extreme.  But Elsa tried to stop her from getting hurt. Unfortunately it ended up being the both of them. But Elsa didn't come without wounds!"

Anna and Raven gasped.

"I'm sure she'll come out of it soon," said Scarlet who sat beside me. "It won't be long."

I sighed and drummed my fingers on the table. I felt very worried. "Elsa never took this long to come out of it!

A/N:

Here is chapter 23. I haven't revealed much yet. But the next chapter is a very sad one. But not as sad as near the end of the book. But this will lead into that! So just as a pre-pre-warning!

Hope you liked the book so far. Sorry this chapter was late and shorter.

Wolfie out!
