Chapter 33: Pistol
Kam had the groups split apart each taking a street to lead their bears into. The wolves completely surrounded their bears nipping at anything they could reach and safely sneak away. He had stayed human to give orders. He slips the silver knife out, when he is near a bear, and stabs its back leg. Another bear grabs that arm in its mouth and it is hard for Kam to hold on to the knife. With the balance shifted, one down and another holding Kam to keep away from his knife, his group can kill the bears.
Two bears move away from the two occupied bears and the group gets between them forcing them further apart. The one that was holding Kam's arm has to let go or die. Kam switches the knife to his other hand. He stabs the first one once more, as it keeps stumbling. Two wolves get its neck and kills it.
Kam slips up on the back leg of the second and stabs it. It attempts to get him, but dies in the turn as Kam pushes the knife into its heart from the backside.
The remaining two attempt to run each going in different directions. Short work for a few wolves to kill.
Kam makes sure stabbing each bear's heart, using his other hand. His group goes to see what happened to the other groups. All they find is more dead wolves. Not many, but enough to say the other groups took off to hide.
They check all the houses to make sure they are empty. One soldier brings the betrayer and his phone out. Kam kills him on the spot.
He goes into his condo to the basement cell. "Your bears found us. They are chasing us through the woods so likely will not find you before you die."
Stuart replies, "I hope they kill you all."
Kam states, "not likely, as there are way too many of us."
He opens the gun safe and removes a pistol that he adds to his belt. He grabs the clips full of bullets and stuffs them in his pockets. The bullets use silver instead of lead inside the copper jacket. They are hollow point rounds so split apart on impact exposing the silver. He cocks the gun and fires it into Stuart's heart, dropping and killing him.
He heads upstairs and outside. The group is off chasing the bears. He can see they split up into four groups to reinforce those in the woods. He listens for a moment before heading towards the nearest fight at a fast jog.
It does not take long before the mountain climb slows him down. The soldiers need daily runs up mountains added to their endurance training. Four legs would make it faster, but he is gaining on the action. The group is still stalling the bears to give the buses time to leave. They are slowly zigzagging up the slope, while he is heading for its center.
A minute later, he pauses to rest. The group is to his left coming his way. Once he sees them, he climbs a tree in their path.
