Three orphans

2017: "You killed my parents!" Maisie Davids shouts at her uncle. He slaps her through her face. She flies to the ground but gets up fast. She just found out that her uncle planned the "rouge" attack on her mother and father. "Go back to your duties you!" He shouts at her, and Maisie walks out. But, deep in her heart, she knows that one day she will get her revenge! If it is the last thing she does. Maisie, Stewart, and Rufus are three young orphans. Maisie's father was the Alpha. Her father and mother were killed in a "rogues attack." Her uncle took over the pack. And Rufus' was the son of the Pack doctor. His parents died in the same attack as Maisie's mother and father. Maisie's uncle killed his mother and father after he became the Alpha of the pack. He wanted no one loyal to his brother and Maisie's mother to be part of the pack's leadership. The rest of the pack mistreated them, and they were sent to do all the dirty work for the pack. Steward's was the beta's son. Maisie hates him and his family. She knows he will kill her if he can, but he is still unsure that the pack will rise against him if he kills the young wolves, as some are still loyal to Maisie. He and his rogues have been leading the pack for the last year. They get beatings every day, and her uncle's little precious daughter thinks she is the Queen of all werewolves. She orders the omegas to beat the three orphans up daily. She is not happy if she does not see them bleed. It makes them more rigid, though, and they are at the point they can not even feel the pain anymore. Her name is Candice. Candice will be twenty soon, and she has not yet met her mate. She is frustrated as she is not pretty. She is fat and loves to eat. She is miserable, and that is why she tries to make life difficult for the three orphans. Candice has a particular task for the three today. She wants trees all around the pack territory, and she wants the three orphans to dig it! Maisie, Stewart, and Rufus are working in the fields. They need to dig some holes to plant some trees for Queen Candy, as they call Candice. Maisie is a bit irritated as they have not had a decent meal in days. She is hungry, but they can go hunt tonight and make themselves something to eat. They slip out a lot at night. At night no one cares about them as long as they stay out of everyone's way and do not try to steal food. Tonight Maisie wants to go hunt with her two friends. They are not the sharpest tools in the shed, but Maisie loves them, and they are the closest she has to a family. "Steward, stop playing around. We need to get this garden done before we get a beating again," Maisie says. They are 17 years old. "I found a treasure, Maisie," Stewart says. Maisie walks over and sees the chest in Stewart's hand. Inside are golden coins and a map. "Hide it! Before anyone else sees," Maisie says. "You think the map leads to a bigger treasure?" Rufus asks. "We will find out. Tonight, it is time for us to run away and go on our adventure!" Maisie, the brain of the three, says. She wants revenge on her uncle and the other betrayers in the pack! She will bring death to them when she returns, but they need to find this treasure first. "What if they find out we are gone?" Rufus asks. "They are always drunk during the nights, so most of them will not even notice if we break our bond with the pack and become rogues," Maisie says. "Yeah, they pass out most of the night, but what about the guards?" Steward asks. He is terrified of thy to beatings they get when they try to run away. It is worst than the other beatings, and he can not stand the stench when Rufus s**t his pants. Not that Rufus smells nice anyway. Rufus hates water and hardly ever baths. The other wolves usually force Rufus under a cold shower if he does not clean himself. Even in winter times and he will sometimes get sick. Then Maisie and Stewart have to doctor him as no one else cares. "I have a plan this time. We will put bottles of moonshine on their patrol route. They will not be able to withstand it. You know these rogues my uncle trusts," Maisie says. She has everything planned to the t this time. "Okay, but where do we get the moonshine?" Rufus asks. "I stole a few bottles about a month ago, luckily no one wanted to blame anyone else, and they could not blame us as we don't drink," Maisie says. "Wow, you are so clever," Rufus says, and he let out a fart. "Rufus!!!" Maisie and Stewart shout together. "Hey, I can not help it, I am hungry, and when I get hungry, it messes up my stomach," Rufus says, looking at them as they hold their breath. "You stink!" Steward says, and he is looking like he is going to vomit. "It is not that bad," Rufus says. The sun is starting to set, and they just finished their last hole. The treasure is hidden in their special tree, where they sometimes hide the food they steal from the kitchen. They can not steal too much as they don't want to be caught out. Tonight Maisie is planning on taking most of the food in the kitchen and loading their backpacks. They don't have clothes, so their backpacks will only be loaded with food and drinks. They need to get as far away from these wolves as they can tonight. Tomorrow morning they will be looking for them. They wait until all the wolves have eaten and drank themselves to the limit. Most are passed out, and some are busy with other things. They will not miss them tonight as they think they will not get far. As soon as it is safe, Maisie slips to the kitchen. She takes all the food she can fit into the backpacks she stole from the warehouse. The guards did take her bait, and she feels happy tonight. The three of them slip out and go to fetch their treasure. They find it safe and sound in the tree where they always hide their stolen food. "Let's go, and let's hope the Moon Goddess is with us tonight," Maisie says. "Yeah, here we go again," Stewart says. He is not too happy about them leaving again. He is always the negative one that does not believe in luck at all. He only sees doom. He sees them getting caught again and getting a beating. "Stop being negative, Stew," Maisie says as they run to the border. This time they will break the pack bond for good. As they step over the border, they stop and say together. "We denounce our bond with the Hollow Moon Pack," They start running in case anyone feels it. They change to their wolves this time and run like hell. They run for hours on end, and at last, they reach a cave. They go in to rest a bit. "What are you kids doing here this early in the morning," They hear a voice from behind them. "I knew it! They got us!" Stew says close to tears. "Who got you? Who are you running from?" The voice asks again. "f**k, it is a ghost!" Rufus shouts and tries to run away, but Maisie grabs him by his fur. They are all still in wolf form as they do not have clothes to wear. Rufus pees himself as he is terrified. "Dammit, Rufus," Maisie says. Anyone talking to them can understand them even if they are in wolf form, so Maisie thinks it must be a witch. Good witches can speak to animals, and at the moment, they are wolves. "We are running from our pack," Maisie answers. The whole cave reeks of alcohol.  "Tell me your story," The voice says, and Maisie tells the voice everything. Even about the treasure map. "I will hide you, and I want into this treasure," The voice says. "Deal," Maisie says. An old drunken woman walks into their sight, and she casts a spell. "Change to your human form, kids," The old lady says. "We can't! We don't have clothes," Maisie says. "You poor things, I will take care of you," The old lady says. She speaks a few words, and in front of them, a whole bunch of clothes appears as well as the best food they have ever seen in their lives. Maisie grabs some new clothes and goes into a tunnel to change to human form and get dressed. She picked jeans and a top and boots with a leather jacket. Rufus and Stew follow after her and change into their human form and dresses. They have not felt so warm since their parents died. They start eating, and the food is the best they ever tasted. The old witch is drinking from a new bottle of vodka. She can either make it appear like the food or have a stash of vodka in the cave. "You can sleep in peace. Your pack will not find you," The old witch says. She is drunk as a skunk, but she feels sorry for these three orphan wolves. She will protect them. "You sure they will not find us?" Maisie asks. "Yeah, I am sure, kiddo, we will stay here until tomorrow night and move away then. Then, we will go to my town, and I will help you from there. The wolves will not come into my town to look for you," The old witch says. "Thank you, what is your name?" Maisie asks. "You can call me mother Dora. I will be the mother of the three of you from now on. I will help you and look after you. Now sleep, little Maisie. Rufus, don't fart in here. Stew, stop worrying. I am here for you three now," Mother Dora says. Dora passes out, and the three of them see soft beds appear in front of them before she passes out. She is the best! They help her to one of the beds, and Rufus and Stew share a big bed. The cave is big but dark. They fall asleep. They have not slept so well in a long time. Maisie wakes up hearing voices outside the cave. It is late as she can see; the sun is already sitting high in the sky. She rubs her eyes. She sees her pack running right past the cave opening as if they can not see it. "They must be here somewhere! They can not disappear into thin air! Keep searching!" She hears her uncle's shouts. He sounds scared and frustrated. "There is no trace of them, boss," One of his Rogue soldiers says. "I swear there was a cave here nearby!" Maisie's uncle says. "We looked everywhere. We can not find it," Another rogue says. Maisie walks up to the opening of the cave. The wolves are all looking around the area, but they can not find anything. She smiles as she looks at the old witch sleeping her ass off on the soft bed. "Thank you, mother Dora," Maisie whispers. She knows if it were not for the old drunken witch, they would have been found and dragged back. They would have been beaten half to death, and their treasure map and old coins would have been taken from them. Stew is standing next to her. He looks amazed. The old witch's spell worked! He was skeptical. He smiles and whispers to Maisie. "This time, the Goddess sent us a drunken angel," He smiles. They needed a break. "Thank you, old mother," Stew also whispers as he looks at Dora with tears in his eyes. The old witch moves in her sleep, and a smile appears on her lips. "Nah, thank you, kids, I always wanted to be a mother, but my good-for-nothing husband left me years ago. Now go back to sleep. Old mother still needs to sleep this hangover off," She says with one eye open.
