Olive looked at Harley, eyes hard, unfeeling. "You think I want to believe my mother's dead, Harley? I don't. But I know she is. And I know she wouldn't want her grandson and his lover running away. Clove wouldn't want it, either." She rasped hoarsley, tone calm. "That's why I'm going to fetch them back. Light needs to get his mind together...Saskia needs to get her anger under control. We need to piece this pack back together, Harley...and I'm grieving. It would be unfair to say I hurt more than anyone, but sometimes it feels as if I'm all alone. But I know Holly wouldn't want us all to stop here. We still have a sickness to fight...lives to lead. So let us lead them." Olive woofed, standing. Her fur was patchy, rippled with blood and scars. "I know how to climb, now...and hunt. I should be fine."

Harley padded all the way into the clearing. "Olive, please don't." She pleaded.

She narrowed her eyes. "Well nobody else seems to be upset that they're gone. So give me one good reason why I shouldn't? Because I might die? It means nothing to me anymore, Harley. I'm the only one who has the heart to do it, so therefore I'm the one that must." She padded towards the exit. "I'll be back soon."

Harley attempted to smile. "Stubborn. Just like your mother..." (I just teared up )

"There's a difference between stubborness and determination. I suppose I have a little of both," Olive woofed over her shoulder, disappearing through the exit. Her paws knew the forest now;;it almost felt foreign to be back in a camp with so many wolves. It felt good at the same time, though. She'd find her place soon enough.

Holly's smile disappeared. "Be safe, Olive. May Twilight go with you."

Silence reappeared, eyes shimmering with a new hope. She now knew of three spirited -- four more to go and they'd have their cure.
Pray the spirit wood shows mercy!
