Under the setting sun, the entire camp prepares for the biggest clash they will face since the rogue werewolves returned. The training carried out by Lupe and the warriors gave them new strength and confidence, but they knew that this battle was inevitable and could end in a major defeat if they did not use everything they knew.
In the middle of the forest, there is a place known as the Shadow Territory. This is the area that the rogues focus on, a territory rich in the ancient powers and secrets of their race. This is where the first big battle will take place, and the rogues are willing to do anything to gain the power the place holds.
Lupe, along with Rage, Topaz, and the other alliance leaders, gather to outline their final plans. While they were there on a high cliff, they looked from afar at the Territory of Shadows. Under the dusk, that place seemed full of mystery, full of shadows and energy that gave them all a strange thrill.
“That territory has an ancient history,” said Lyra from the Moonshadow Clan, looking at the area. "Our ancestors performed many rituals in that area. We can't let the rogues get their hands on it.”
Rage agreed, his eyes filled with determination. “Once they get this territory, their power will become even stronger. The artifacts they hold have a connection to that place. We have to stop them.”
Lupe nodded, knowing Rage was right. “We must prepare well. This is not like our previous battles. I feel that there is a greater force waiting for us in that territory.”
In their hearts, each of them knew that this would be the test of their unity. If they succeed, their fight against the rogues will continue. But if they fail, it could be all over for their herds.
The next day, before the battle, Rage instructed each clan to prepare. Rage's Howl Clan was tasked with leading the attack, with Aric's Bloodfang Clan supporting their movements. Lyra's Moonshadow Clan, as experts in espionage and information giving, will be used to patrol the area and make sure no rogue can sneak in.
Lupe and Topaz, along with some elite warriors from the Kumina Clan, have a special mission. They will be on the lookout for spies and sabotage any rituals the rogues may be starting in the territory. Their goal is to prevent rogues from harnessing the power that the Territory of Shadows possesses.
As Lupe walked among the warriors, he felt their nervousness. Everyone was preparing, sharpening their swords and fortifying their weapons. But behind their preparations, Lupe knew that there was fear in their hearts. He knew it was his duty as a leader to give them courage.
"This battle is going to be tough," Lupe said while talking to his teammates. “But let's remember, our families, our herds, our world—all these depend on our unity. We cannot be defeated by fear. We have each other, and together, we are invincible.”
Each warrior's eyes lit up at his words. Lupe saw the fire of determination in their faces. He knew they were ready to face any threat, and despite their nervousness, their courage was still there.
After a few hours, the moment everyone was waiting for came. From their posts in the forest, they saw rogue werewolves coming into the Territory of Shadows. Serkan, their leader, was at the front, holding a powerful artifact that glowed under the sun. Behind him, there were his warriors, ready to attack the territory of their dreams.
Lupe stared at Serkan from a distance. He could feel the weight of the power this rogue possessed. His presence is like a storm ready to kill all in his path.
“Time to attack,” Rage said, his voice full of courage. "We will not let them take this territory."
Rage immediately ordered his warriors to prepare to attack. At the first signal of the drum, the warriors of the Howl Clan began to move. They rushed at the rogues, carrying their swords and war gear. Aric and his Bloodfang Clan followed, their weapons glinting under the sunlight.
The rogue werewolves met their attack. Every blow, every blade of the sword, blazes in the midst of the bloody battle. The shouts of the warriors and the howls of the rogue werewolves filled the air, seeming to indicate a war without end.
Lupe and Topaz, along with their elite warriors, hid at the edge of the forest, waiting for the right time to attack. Their eyes focused on Serkan, who was busy starting a ritual in the middle of the territory. The artifact he was holding continued to glow, and the power emanating from it seemed to grow stronger.
