Athena scrambled across the forest floor, fearing everything. Every owl screech, every bird caw frightened her. Suddenly an owl sat down n front of her, spreading its wings, "the beta pack needs you" it said in a shaky voice. "The beta pack doesn't exist, I just came up with that stupid name!" Snapped Athena, "but what is there already is a beta pack?" Hooted the owl. Athena shook her head as if she was imagining the owl, and when she opened her eyes, the owl was gone. How odd. Suddenly she heard the sound of metal horses, or speed boxes. She peered out and saw multiple speed boxes and a female furless in a long red dress. She looked closer at the speed boxes, they were racing! Once they were out of sight, she sprinted across the stone pathway. The city of the furless was a place where the strike pack would never find her, especially Scar. She was able to watch their battle tactics and saw their size while they were battling, she knew they were from the strike pack.

Between the furless' stone dens, Athena tucked her tail between her legs. Dog barks and rumbles from speed boxes echoed through the alley. Maybe she could find a fox who wouldn't betray her? Or she could keep moving, and maybe she could find a new forest. No! She had to go back and save Blurry and Silver, or she would die trying. She wisped around, but suddenly something yanked at her tail. She swiftly turned her head to find a big gruff man, his chest was bulky, and thorns of fur stuck out from his chin. Brown hair stuck straight out from under the stained green cap. A snarl crawled across his face, revealing a crooked smile. Athena quivered, did her want her? He hooked a silver wire around her neck and dragged her across the stone pathway, and threw her into a rusty white van. As he locked her in a cage, other dogs in the cages yipped. It was over.
