[ CODE GREEN - ORDER 67 - RECRUIT ]

"Sir Shadow, you have a new instruction directly from the higher-ups," the woman said, while handing the device to him.

Shadow took the device from her and briefly glanced at it. He nodded in understanding. He then handed the device back to the woman and said to Josh, "Did you get the last location?"

Josh nodded at his boss and said, "Yes, sir!"

"Are you sure?" Shadow asked again, making sure that he had the correct position this time.

"Certainly, sir! After we arrived at this house, I-"

Before Josh could continue his explanation, a member of the Daggers suddenly burst into the house and shouted, "Apologies, sir! But we have an emergency!"

Shadow and the other two frowned at the sudden interruption, but he let it slide and said, "Explain!"

"Sir, multiple howls can be heard in the distance and there have been some sightings of the wolves as well," the member said in an anxious tone.

This made Shadow and the other two frown even more, but they didn't panic at all. Shadow then said, "How many?"

"We're not sure how many they are, but we calculated that there are at least ten of them," the member replied.

"Are they coming in our direction?" Shadow asked again, making sure that his ability to erase scent from any object, animate or inanimate, works as he intended.

The member seemed to be thinking for a moment, and then he said, "No, sir, they appear to be wandering aimlessly in the woods, and some of them are even howling at each other."

Shadow nodded and thought, 'It seems that we have overstayed our welcome. I didn't expect that we had been here for such a long time that we triggered their transformation.'

Josh, after hearing the report, turned towards his boss and asked, "What should we do, sir?"

"Wrap everything up and let's go to the final location."

Shadow declared, Josh and the member who had just rushed into the house then left the house. Josh told the member beside him to split up and convey the instructions from their boss to the rest of the members while he did the rest.

A few minutes later, Josh entered the house again and approached his boss. He then said, "Sir, we await your instructions!"

Shadow nodded and turned towards Josh, "Shall we?"

Josh nodded in understanding. After that, the Daggers left the house and headed in their final direction, to the north. They cleaned everything outside the house but not the inside because they didn't have much time, knowing that the wolves were getting closer to their location.

( One Hour Earlier - Quileute Tribe )

Meanwhile, with the tribe, they can be seen chatting and enjoying their time together with stories and food at the campfire. Tonight was the second night that they went through without the presence of the Cullens. It made them somewhat relieved, so they decided to treat the night with a little party of their own.

The other night, they were kind of skeptical and didn't believe the news about the Cullens who had left Forks. But tonight, they were sure that they had left for good. Meanwhile, Sam and his pack were not celebrating like the other members of the tribe do; instead, they were gathered at the border between their territory and the Cullens'.

A day after learning that the Cullens had left Forks, Sam and his pack grew confident. Tonight, they decided to venture into the Cullens' territory and ignore the treaty, since the Cullens left Forks yesterday.

Although Sam had broken the treaty first when he went to save Bella, he felt that it was wrong. But one of his pack urged him to allow them to venture into the Cullens' territory as they had never been there before and were curious as well.

"Come on, Sam! Just this once!" one of his pack members, Jared Cameron, said in a pleading tone. They were still at the border in their human form, and Sam could be seen contemplating Jared's request.

"No!" Sam declared, and the pack fell silent, while Jared wore a disappointed expression on his face.

Jared pleaded again, but Sam refused his plea once more. Over time, other members of the pack decided to join Jared in his plea to venture into the Cullens' territory, as they were curious as well.

After multiple refusals, an hour later, Sam gave up on refusing and said, "Fine! Just this once!"

Sam then shifted into his wolf form, followed by his pack, and they stepped into the Cullens' territory. Some of them felt excited, while others remained silent. Sam then decided that they would go explore for a bit and headed towards the Cullens' residence.

*AWOOO*

But before they could even set foot on the perimeter of the Cullens' residence, they heard a howl. They immediately turned their heads in the direction of the howl, and one of them said telepathically, "Sam! It's coming from our territory!"

Sam growled and, without waiting any longer, he rushed towards the source of the howling sound, followed by his pack. When Sam and his pack reached the area, they found themselves near the tribe's residence and saw a light brown wolf whimpering on the ground.

Sam approached the wolf and growled at it. He intended to form a bond between them, and after a few minutes, Sam succeeded. He heard that the whimper was familiar.

"It hurts... it hurts..." the light brown wolf whimpered on the ground.

"Jacob?" 

Sam telepathically said in a surprised tone. Jacob, who was now in his wolf form, glanced at the black wolf beside him and said, "S-Sam?"

"You'll be alright, Jacob. I'm here," Sam said.

Sam then went to calm Jacob, and after a few minutes, Jacob calmed down. Before Sam could say anything more, they heard multiple howls near their location.

*AWOOO* x3

"It's coming from the elders' residence!" Jacob shouted.

"Let's go!" Sam growled, commanding his pack and Jacob to rush to the elders' residence as soon as possible.

Fortunately, they reached the place on time because if they had been just a minute late, some of the tribe members would have been hurt. There were three wolves, smaller than Sam and Jacob, about to pounce on the tribe members who had been celebrating an hour ago. Now, everything had turned into a horrifying situation.

Sam, as the alpha of his pack, let out a loud howl at them, and they immediately whimpered in submission. Some of his pack members also went to encircle them, fearing that they might lose control again.

After a few moments of intense howling and growling, the three new wolves turned back into their human form, followed by Sam, his pack, and Jacob. Some of the tribe members then gave them clothes to cover themselves and prevent them from catching a cold. Jacob went to his dad; fortunately, Billy was safe as he wasn't at the party that night.

Billy, with the help of Jacob and some of the elders of the tribe, approached Sam to ask him about what's going on.

"Sam, do you have any idea?" Billy asked.

"Must be the Cullens! They've come back!" Jared Cameron exclaimed loudly from the side.

"No, it's not them. We've checked their house, remember?" The other member of Sam's pack, Paul Lahote, said, nudging Jared on his shoulder.

"So there are new vampires coming to Forks?" one of the elders asked, in a confused tone.

"I don't know, let's search the entire Forks," Sam said in a serious tone, furrowing his eyebrows.

"Very well, but you have to be care-"

"ARRGHH!!"

But before Billy could continue, they heard an agonizing scream coming from a specific direction.

"Quick! It's coming from where Harry is!" one of the elders shouted to Sam and his pack.

Sam and his pack immediately shift into their wolf form, while Jacob stays with his dad, guarding him safely, fearing that something might happen to him. Sam and his pack are followed by some of the tribe members, and when they reach the location, they are welcomed with the horrifying sight of Harry's lifeless body.

"Dear god, Harry..."

*GASP!*

"Oh my god..."

"What are we going to say to the Clearwater family?"

While the tribe members were mourning for Harry Clearwater, Sam and his pack were chasing the scent of the culprit. From the expression of his wolf form, he could be seen to be very annoyed and angry at the same time.
