Lacey nodded her head to show she agreed to the puppy name plan. "That seems like a reasonable idea." She smiled and listened as Bullet mentioned going back to the hotel, "Hmm, how bout something different tonight." She led the way into the forest, looking back occasionally to make sure Bullet was behind her. The place she had in mind was her old territory, Northern Ridge. And to travel up to Eagle's Peak, one of her favorite place to be, the edge of the mountain with the awesome view. Then something else came to mind. What if anyone else claimed it? Would she be able to get there without any fights? She stopped in her tracks, 'Uh, maybe we should go back.' She thought to herself. Lacey continued as she decided they could go around the territory just in case.

Bullet looked at Lacey who stopped for a second then kept on going. "Umm, Lacey, this is territory. Well we can go anyways but we gotta be careful." He said looking into her eyes and looking seriously. He didn't want to fight but if he was with her he would probably try to be persuasive with any dogs that were in the pack. He licked her cheek and then followed her through the forest.
They arrived at eagles peek and he looked at the view. It over looked mountains and rivers and trees. The heavy smell of pine filled the air. The breeze flew through his coat and his ears perked up. The sunlight struck him and he closed his eyes and smiled. The sunlight soaked into his fur and he re opened his eyes and looked at Lacey "Wow what a great view. It's beautiful, like you. When we have pups i want to take them all around." He said smiling. His pups would be cute but fierce and strong as well as intelligent.

Lacey chuckled, "Hehe, not fair! I'm going to show them how to comb their fur." She laughed, she would never do anything like that. Yet for some reason, her fur looked combed and wavy, she did do a quick lick of her fur every week or more, but that was it. 'Hm, I guess my fur's just made that way.' She thought as she plopped down on the soft patch of grass on the edge, "Is it okay if we sleep here tonight dear?" She rolled over on her back and wagged her tail, trying to look as cute and convincing as possible, her little black furry ears looking alomst straight as she lay there upside down.

He smiled and licked her. She had a lot of eagerness and hyperness if that was a word. "Yes, Love, we may." He licked her again and laid down, overlooking the mountains and the beauty of the wilderness. The sun began to set into the clouds and it began to get dark. He laid down and closed his eyes as he nudged her and slept next to her. The puppy's would come here as well. He fell into a deep sleep and snored a couple times.
When Bullet awoke he heard a noise. Rather loud and noisy as if the intruder didn't know they were intruding themselves. There was a low growl and a black figure came out. What are Panthers doind in Maine? Well they had traveled and taken over many lands. He howled and barked to Lacey "Lacey, PANTHER WAKE UP, ATTACK." The Panther came out at Bullet hard and knocked him hard off his feet. Almost over the edge of the cliff. He got up and jumped on the Panther and bit the top of its neck, then scratched its chest but its claws knocked him back again and his head hit hard on the rocks/ his stomach had a cut on it and he was weak. He whispered "Lacey, run. Don't worry about me, I will get him. Just sprint as fast as you can and don't look back." He closed his eyes and got up again.

Lacey's eyes flickered open as she heard Bullet's howls and barks to get her to wake up. As she heard the word, "panther" she sprang to her paws, when she was just about 6 months old, her parents and siblings were murdered by a large black panther. She turned her head to see the same creature standing before her, she watched helplessly as her mate was thrown to the cliff edge, she ran to help him up, but he beat her to it. 'Ooooh, it is sooo payback time kitty.' She thought to herself as she threw herself ontop of the panther, grabbing it's shoulder pelt, but jumped off as the big cat stood on its hind legs and dropped to it's four paws again. She slid in a little circle as she landed on hers, she crouched, about to jump until she heard a loud booming sound. Turning around, Lacey saw Bullet thrown onto the rough rocky grouns. "Bullet!" She ran to him and started to lick the large gash on his stomach, "Run? What do you think I'm an unfaithful coward? I'm helping you take him down, like it or not." She licked the big bruise on his head, her head quickly whipped around to see the panther crouched and walking towards them. She snarled loudly and ran to hit it again, latching her jaws on it's paw, only to be thrown off again into a tree, she quickly lifted herself up and turned to Bullet, she ran to him and stood by his side looking forward at the panther. "Don't worry, we can do this."

Bullet struggled to get words out of his mouth. He was slowly going unconsious and he was wounded bad. He got back up and as the Panther got distracted on Lacey, Bullet jumped on the Panther's neck. The Panther turned around and bit Bullet's wound again and this time threw him nearly knocking him over the edge. Bullet struggled to open his eyes but they were shut. The Panther pounced on him knocking him over the edge and about 5 feet below hit a rock. He stuggled his last bit of energy and fight to say "Fight, the hardest you ever did in you life. Don't worry about m-" He laid his head down and let out his breath. He was still breathing, just wounded critically. The thoughts drifted through his head of Lacey and his future pups. And the territory and the life he lived now and forever.

Lacey yelped as she saw Bullet go for the panther, only to come back down on the edge of the treacherous mountain cliff. She grabbed him by the scruff to help him up, but rapidly jumped back as the panther turned to bite his open wound again and knock him off the edge. "No!" She howled as his now frail body tumbled down. She took all her strength and fury out on the panther. She snapped and let out a bark loud enough for the sound to be heard about 2 miles away, she lept in the air let nothing but her body mass push the cat over. As the panther was down on the ground, she wasted no time on latching onto its neck and biting down hard. It struggled a bit, but finally swatted at her and ran away. The panther struck her on her side, knocking her over, but them she remembered her mate being thrown off the cliff and quickly got up. She wobbled at first, but started running with the pain that came with it. Hesitating at first, she gathered all her courage and leaped off the edge, she fell down until her body slammed on the cliff next to Bullet's. Quickly getting up, she examined his wounded body and turned up so she could lick the blood off of it. Lacey got up again and howled, with all her might, she howled as long and loud as she could until she fell down again and blacked out.
