It didn't take long for us to hold off the Snow Wolve's counterattack, they had been unorganized and un-coordinated. "That'll প্রদর্শনী them!" Exclaimed Humphrey as the Snow নেকড়ে retreated. I had not seen him until now, so I approached him to talk. "Uh, hello there, আপনি are Humphrey right?" I asked, I had to be sure because, it's messed up to say but, grey নেকড়ে look really alike sometimes. "Yes, that's my name, don't wear it out!" He answered in a giddy tone. And that told me that he must be in a good mood. "I'm new here, names Connor. But I think আপনি must have heard about me from Kate, and my friends, and everyone else around here, and those old rumors from a few weeks ago..." I ব্যক্ত but stopped abruptly, something caught my attention. And that was a new group of নেকড়ে I haven't seen before. "Yeah, আপনি sound like a cool guy, but- what are আপনি looking at?" Humphrey asked without finishing because he saw I wasn't paying attention anymore. "Does anyone know who they are?" I asked. It looked like a small pack of 10 অথবা 15 wolves, they were all very diverse. "I think they are that small pack that wanders around the US and Canada, picking up stray নেকড়ে and such. Why?" Humphrey said. I was going to tell him why, but I হারিয়ে গেছে control of my movement and my legs felt like they were walking me over to the new arrivals.
I had no idea what I was doing অথবা what I was going to do, I had just started walking over to the new arrivals, curiosity had gotten the best of me. And that is when things didn't seem to get awkward, but rather a "meet-and-greet" moment between me and the new guests. I'll just nickname them "Wanderers" because I can't just keep calling them "new arrivals" for the পরবর্তি few days. "Oh, hello there!" ব্যক্ত one of the wolves, I hesitated to speak so they spoke instead. "Do আপনি happen to know Kate অথবা Humphrey? We were late to the unity of the packs and our pack leader, Janice, was going to plan the agreement." ব্যক্ত the wolf, I had been hearing their words, but not paying attention to their voice and what they looked like. So I answered then questioned. "Yes, I was just talking to Humphrey, but I haven't seen Kate. What's your name?" I waited for an answer, then on cue from a few সেকেন্ড of delay, they answered. "My name is Lexi, I'm the 2nd in command of Janice's pack. And আপনি are?" She ব্যক্ত and asked, I was hoping no one asked my name, because usually when I introduce myself, I would feel as if I'm responsible for even আরো lives. And that makes things complicated. So I avoided the question. "Well I'm not really an important নেকড়ে so, I guess my name won't matter." Luckily she just ব্যক্ত "Oh, ok..." and kept walking with her pack, so now if anything happens, I won't feel guilty. And now, either way, I felt guilt from not introducing myself. "Wait!" I called out, she turned and glanced. "Connor, my name is Connor." I said. "Well, nice to meet আপনি Connor." And she kept walking. And then, my guilt went away, but the "name-wise" sort of attatchment would make things আরো complicated. So I guess if I introduced myself to one of the Wanderers, I'll go greet the others. And so I started to catch up to them and make myself আরো known than how famous/infamous I was already.
