Lily [cont] chapter 6 The Fight

Lily ducked behind a tree branch and watched as the two wolves backed Penquilla down. The fight had been going on for about 30 minutes already, and it wasn't going well for Penquilla. Penquilla suddenly jumped up and attacked one of the wolves. She grabbed him by the neck and wrestled him up the mountain, then she pushed him down with a mighty growl, and leaped up, howling fiercely. The other wolf took that moment to attack. He jumped into Penquilla and watched as she tumbled ten feet down, struggling to stop herself, then finally fall to the ground. When he saw that she was dead, he laughed loudly and cried out, " I'm the new leader! " Just then he saw that the other wolf, his partner, was still just barely alive, and he sneered and said, " Lets go up the mountain. " Then when he saw that the other wolves were heading up the mountain and couldn't see him, he leaped onto his partner and killed him. Lily gasped and the wolf looked up, smirking. " Oh, look! " He cried out to his pack. " Its the little lady Penquilla picked up. '' All the wolves looked at Lily and grinned slyly. Lily turned and hurried away, but she didn't get far. The wolf leader screamed out, " Wait, you MUTT! I didn't say you could go yet. You have been rewarded to be one of our foods tonight, alone with Penquilla and my dear partner here. Then we'll go catch as many rabbits as we can, a few deer, some moose, and a whole bunch of goats! We'll steal the farmers pigs and even the cows and chickens! Then we'll take all the food up to the tip of the mountain and have a feast! Let the fun and games begin!!! "
Everyone cheered. They didn't even realize they couldn't carry all the food up the mountain, but Lily didn't care. She shot off like a rocket, with no one noticing her at all.
