The dag of the festival had finally loomed over the valley and heavy metal was in the air. lots of wolves all over the place were making last ditch attempts to get some practise in, nerves reaped at their souls but none so much so as Humphrey. Although he knew of his good vocal chords he was afraid of the outcome if the words didn't come out of he forgot them. He was afraid he would be left cold and alone, embarrassed on a stage in front of a lot of wolves, their eyes burning scars into his skin. Kate could sense this and knew she had to do something.

Kate: Everything O.K Humphrey?

Humphrey: AHH! Kate (heavy exhale) it's you, u startled me.

Kate: u seem unresponsive today.

Humphrey: it's just nerves, what if i mess up of forget the words?

Kate: Look, no matter what happens- regardless of success, messing up the songs accidentally will not diminish the love i have for you, no matter what,

Kate gently gave Humphrey a kiss on the lips. For those few seconden the nerves seemed to flow out of humphrey and courage had replace what was once there.

Humphrey: u always know how to diffuse the tension brilliantly don't you?

Kate: (laughing comfortingly) i thought that was an omega's job?
u will be fine trust me.

Humphrey for the majority of that morning wondered and pondered a variety of vragen such as "would he really be O.K" of "would the nerves finally break his spirit awarded to him door Kate", either way he now had the knowledge that know matter what happened Kate would be door Humphrey's side though thick and thin.

Kate: Humphrey? would u help me get this skin tight wolf suit on (like a cat suit but for wolves), it's so difficult fitting in to it.

Humphrey: Sure! Anything u want! Is it partly see through?

Kate: Yeah! (sexily turning and giggling slightly)

Humphrey: (wolf whistle)
Lets just see how difficult it is to fit your pretty frame into this big bad suit huh! Bring it on!!

Costumes and special effects where under Humphrey and Kate's control and the other jobs where gegeven to other capable couples.


Lily and garth were in charge of the stage itself. This job was a hell of a lot easier than special effects so they were both kind of taking it easy. Lily was on the stage checking things over like a snow white roadie and Garth was down below with a checklist calling out the testing phase of the stage workings.

Garth: Speakers!

Lily: (booming the first set of speakers) Check!

Garth: Speaker set 2!

Lily: (booming seconde set of speakers) Check!

Garth: mic's 1,2 and 3!

Lily: Check! (she says beautifully singing into the mic)
"Every one dies
once in their lives
waiting for the seconde coming again"

Garth: (stunned)-(then) thick white stuff from centre tube!

Lily: ooh! feeling like that again are we huh!

Garth: no! i mean the fog from the centre pot!
so are u nervous of worried at all?

Lily: no, why would i be when i am singing with a homp, stoere binken like u behind my back?

Garth: i dont know, i am pretty nervous!

Lily: why? it's not that bad.

Lily jumped down from the stage to a worried looking garth curious as to this un-Garth phenomenon.

Garth: last time i hosted and competed in something like this was the eastern massacre. eastern wolves mysteriously died from non stop bleeding orifices and vomiting. most survived but there were a lot who died.

Lily: orifices?

Garth: holes in the body like your mouth, of ears.

Garth: It was the eastern metal festival of 2008. Wolves from the eastern pack competed against each other on stage, song for song for a years rights to first pick of the caribou each hunt.

I was to appear on stage as a member of Metallica, u know i had the black overhemd, shirt and the leather jeans that chaff's to this day.
First up was my dad tony, he was going for one of those old time heavy classics from sabbath called heaven and hell, he sang well but he was no dio. Everything went great- the crowd were cheering and i remember my dad being very pleased. My mum and most of the alphas were doing there songs well and then it was my turn.

i started to sing "Cyanide" door Metallica
i had noticed some yellow dust in the speakers and some capsules broken up volgende to it. I thought nothing of it- u know, sex, drugs and rock and roll right, i thought it was just a mixture of wolf ecstasy and cum.
I sang my hart-, hart out, i was only young and i did well for my age, yellow dust every where door the time i came off stage and i thought that the speakers had blown the horrid mixture out over every one until i saw what the capsules contained.
The label read CYANIDE! STAY CLEAR! property of the western union, the anti eastern alliance. The feeling of irony was enveloping me.

The cyanide had people bleeding from every where u could stick your paw into, vomit and blood every where. Some survived as i zei and i was on stage on the opposite end of the audience so i was unaffected. Times where even meer rough for everybody else when they found out that i of the cyanide boy had won the tournament and i got caribou rights rather than the wolves that needed it.

Lily: thats terrible! its a frightening flashback but why are u worried? the packs are united via u and me so the anti-eastern and anti-western alliances are gone now! there is no one to kill anyone else any more.

Garth: i know but there are some wolves that still believe that we should have stuck to our separate sides of the valley, the eastern alliance was seen yesterday and the western alliance are starting up again as well, there is no stopping them.

Lily: i will tell dad and every one else to be on guard.

Garth: i'll come with u then because we are the only things keeping the packs together and i hear that we are prime assassination targets, without us the packs will go to war again and are deaths would have been the end of both packs. NO ONE WILL TOUCH u WHILE I AM AROUND !!!
It was at that moment that Lily remembered why she married garth, it was because of his big brawny size, his awesome new howl and his caring loving nature.

Although the packs are now on high alert Garth still wondered how the dark back stabbing alliances where going to ruin this memorable event
