The dogs were barking at Cove as he pretended to be very hurt. He could see both the dogs and the humans quickly approaching. His plan was working. He heard Akela's howl, so he assumed that she had everything under control. Just before one of the dogs pounced on him, he suddenly leaped to his three feet knocking the attacking dog off of it's. Then he started walking away from where Akela and the two hiden pups where. The other dog ran in front of Cove and grawled deeply in it's throat. Cove tried walking by it, but the dog wouldn't let him. So, Cove dropped to the ground again pretending to be seriously hurt again. The dog went for attack, and like the first one, Cove quickly jumped back to his three feet and knocked the second dog off it's feet like the first one.
After he had done that, he looked back at the humans. He saw one of them pointing it's gun at him. He raised his fur up high and started snarling. He got down low and was getting ready to attack. He could see the other humans backing off. "Wait-" one suddenly said, "How often do you see a three-legged wolf? Or a wolf this close? He might be tamed." With that, the one talking started carefully walking towards Cove making a small sound. Cove kept his eyes on the one with the gun still grawling deeply.
The approaching human got really close to Cove. Cove didn't appear to have noticed the human approaching, so the human decided to reach out and pet him. "Good boy." He said softly as he started to pet Cove. Seeing that the Cove wasn't doing anything, the human with the gun lowered his gun. As soon as the human did that, Cove turned on the human petting him (even though he thought it felt good being petted), and attacked it. The human screamed of pain as Cove sinked his teeth into the humans arm.
The two dogs who were stunned by Cove knocking them over suddenly got back up and grawled hoping to protect their owner. The human with the gun didn't want to risk hurting his friend, so he pointed his gun in the air and fired a couple of shots hoping to startle Cove. It did more than startle Cove. As soon as the first gunshot filled the air, Cove yepped in absolute fear and took off running as fast as his three legs could carry him. Everybody who was there, thought that he disappeared like a puff of smoke because he left so quickly.
Cove was extremely scared of loud noises. The gunshots caused him to go in a panic. He ran and ran not knowing anything. He forgot everything. He didn't know where he was going or what he was doing. Everything was a blur. He didn't feel even feel his feet on every leap that he took. The only thing that he could feel was the bottom of his left hind leg. It started to hurt as if the rest of it was still there. He didn't slow down for nothing, but the pain of his left hind leg reminded of what happened to it. He stayed in his panicle run promising himself that he'd never let what happened happen again.
