It was the end of the waterfall. It should be somewhere near the freezing side of the forest when it hits onto rocks and floating onto the shore. The waterfall was very high above the hill as water gushes down into the bottom of the trench. A shadow of a wolf, or perhaps a dog, was seen lying unconsciously near the shore, as twigs and dead leaves were lying around it. It was dawn as the sun slowly rises in between the mountains from a distance. Suddenly, figures started to appear near the frozen woods as a deer, polar bear and two dogs were seen.
"So as I was saying, me as a polar bear I am a very nice person, that's why I donated a lot of fishes to the other polar bears!" A polar bear named Dane yapped happily.
"Yes yes of course you will say that Dane. I didn't even touch you guys when you suddenly scared me out of nowhere yesterday." A deer named Celine rolled her eyes as she walks in the middle of them.
"You shouldn't have done that to her Dane that's really mean. She's a deer please be gentle." A golden retriever named Jerome fought back as he walks beside Jane, a cocker spaniel that stared at Dane.
"Come on I was just joking yesterday don't take it too hard." Dane laughed as he saw Celine started to shiver, feeling petrified. Dane noticed and asked. "Whats wrong Celine? Are you cold? Need a hug girl?"
"I rather run away now! There's a wolf there!" She started to hide behind Jerome as he noticed a wolf lying motionlessly near the riverside. "Oh yeah? Don't worry I will protect you Celine, my name's Dane the polar bear you know!" Dane interrupted as he ran towards the wolf and took a closer look. The rest of the animals followed up behind him as they approach to the animal.
"Holy bear it's a wolf! I'm gonna kill it!" Dane shouted as he extended his claws and prepare to attack. Jerome stepped in and stopped Dane. "Dude have you eaten too much fish these days? He's dead can't you see? He can't do anything to us. Plus, we don't know if he's a good or a bad one." Jerome said as he and Dane stared at Celine.
"What?"
Celine said as Dane and Jerome pushed her to the wolf. She felt petrified as she her four legs started to feel uncomfortable.
I woke up noticing a deer staring at me. I felt a bit pain on my forehead as I started sniffing the deer. She stared at me with disbelief and note that I didn't attack her. "Are you okay wolf? Guys he's alive!" Celine said as the animals were shocked. Everyone gathered me as they saw me and didn't believe their eyes.
"Wait, you're not a wolf. If you're a wolf you would have killed the deer." Celine immediately kicked Jerome with her hinds. "Wow you sick bastard you baited me there didn't you!"
"Well it's the only way to know if he's good or not. Wolves and dogs are different at some point." Dane cut in as Jane nodded her head.
I continued sniffing the deer and for some reason I already knew her name. In fact, I know all of their names. "Bro you must have fell off that waterfall. Whats your name man? Where you from?" Dane asked as I stood up and walked away.
"Dude I'm talking to you! Thats very rude to walk away yo!" Dane shouted as I stopped.
I stopped there and started to think for a second. I realized Radaar isn't with me anymore, I'm all alone. Maybe I should get some new friends or knowing someone would be beneficial.
With that I turned back and stared at them.
"Buck. I'm a husky wolf breed dog from London."
"That's very far. How did you end up here?" Celine walked to me slowly as she opened her ears.
"I don't know. I feel like I'm being abandoned, lied and it seemed so personal to me."
I said as I have no idea what to say next. Jerome and Dane nodded as they slapped my back with their paws. "Join us then! We love making new friends yo! I'm Dane the coolest polar bear you ever knew-"
"Ah shut up Dane, I'm Jerome. These are the girls Celine the deer and Jane the dog." With that, Celine and Jane smiled at me as I smiled back. "Don't get me wrong yo, we are not strays, we are natural growers, we are independent you know." Dane chuckled as he squeezed me tightly. I gave a low growl, but of course I really don't have elsewhere to go. I'm pretty much stuck with these ecstatic idiots.
"Please don't mind Dane and Jerome, they both are more towards the cheerful side." Jane stared at me as I smiled at her, nodding my head slowly. "Animals help animals, except for aggressive ones. Usually they are the ones that we are afraid of." Jerome as as we walked together towards a cave with an ice cave beside it. I believe those are their homes. "This is our house, the cave is Celine and the dogs, while the ice cave is ours." Dane said as he pointed at his sister and mother growling at them at a distance.
The ice cave was carved in a very circular shape, as snow were seen covered above the cave, concealing their location from the outside world, therefore it seemed safe for them. I looked around the scenery and admired the way they live around the place. However, I didn't interact much with them as I don't know them well yet. There is always this uncomfortable feeling inside me, devouring and following me everywhere I go.
"Buck? You alright man? Buck?" Dane shake me as I found myself inside the ice cave and sitting down looking at the ceiling for quite some time. "You have been distracted since we came in, is everything okay?"
"Yea Dane don't worry I'm just not used to it." I said as I licked my paws. Dane nodded as he sat down and continued to introduce me to his mother. I never really asked about his father because I noticed that he's not around the house. Something must have happened to him, noticing that they do not have photos of their father.
I kind of regret running away from Radaar. He was captured by weird men species and now I am in the wild, speaking about the wild, I kind of forgotten where's the exit to this forest, maybe one day I will ask them about it. They are a pretty nice bunch of animals, having a complete trust on who I am. I continued walking around the house and noticed that they stashed a lot of food for the winter. I walked towards the exit of the cave and sat down with my two legs. I looked at the scenery around the frozen forest and noticed how beautiful the outside world is. I have always been in a house and training centre, but I never came to a place like this.
"So what happened down there Buck?" Jerome asked me as he walked into the ice cave. "You haven't told us anything about that." He continued as he jumped beside Dane and looked at me.
Sometimes I always wonder why I am always quiet around these animals. But this time I wasn't, I feel that I have to tell them what's going on exactly so that I will not jeopardize them. "Look I have something to tell you-"
As I am about to tell them, a gunshot was heard from a distance as the sound of dogs whimpered. Multiple shots were heard and more whimpering sounds were heard as trees started to fall and in a few moment, it was dead quiet.
Dane's family quickly hide beneath their holes as Dane, Jerome and I went out to check what happened. To our horror, this is what we saw.

Jane was seen dead lying on the ground, as her entire wild cave was destroyed completely with used gunpowders and C4 explosives. Humans were seen running in the distance as gun smokes floated towards the sky, everything around was destroyed and incinerated. The smell of fire and no animal sounds were heard anymore.
"Jane's family is in there..." Jerome started to whimper around Jane as the cave continued to engulf with smoke and fire. There's nothing any animal could do, and I know who's at fault. No one else but me that caused the attraction to the forest. "Who would do this kind of thing to us? Who would have found us here? We never told anyone about this place!" Jerome frantically looked around and wondered deep and suddenly he looked at me. "You... Buck. You this piece of cunt! You led them here!" Jerome pushed me to the ground and growl as he noticed that I have multiple injuries and bruises on my body area. The smell of the blood started to make things sensible and especially the tracks that we left, but beneath my tracks and pawprints, I remembered it was bleeding as it lays a trial of blood towards this area. "Look I don't have time to explain, we have to leave now. Or else they will find us because of the trial of pawprints we left behind." I told them as I remembered that my paws were injuired.
Jerome and Dane started to growl and continued stepping forward towards me, showing signs of aggressiveness and unforgivable rage. I didn't know what to do at all. All I know is if I don't get out of this place I will get hunted down by them, just like Radaar.
I started to step back and kept apologizing and whimpering as an apology. To no avail, they started to charge towards me and I defended myself by slashing my paws onto Dane and Jerome as they were pinned down. The footsteps of humans are getting closer and closer as they followed the track towards another ally into our area. I immediately released my paws from them and ran away as fast as I could. Guns were fired towards my direction as they were miss by an inch when they shot onto the tree right beside me. I noticed I wasn't running anymore as Dane caught me by the back of my tail, while Jerome started barking non stop for no reason. I started to struggle as the men in black were visible on my sight as I stared at a tranquilizer gun being pulled out. Ten shots were fired if I am not wrong. It felt nothing at first, but as time goes by I felt giddy and tired all of a sudden, and kind of fell into a deep sleep. All I remembered was watching Dane and Jerome being captured and dragged into a huge cage, while I was being carried into a black vehicle of some type, and everything was black.

Froma that point, I couldn't remember anything.
